Wip Ask Game

RULES: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet or tell them something about it!

Me: Hey it's looks fun, let's do it!

Also me: *second later, after realizing that about half of my WIPs don't have a title because I'm writing it on paper at school* Oh. Oh no. Not the title!

Me: *next second later, realizing that I'm a mess so most of these papers are out of a satchel I brought among other purposes, specifically for that* Well, gotta pull Drake and ignore my responsibilities to dig some shit up :D

I managed to get through both of these inconveniences so here we are, ask if you want. Most of them are one-shots but some (majority) are on their way to becoming something like my contingencies prompt fill (40 pages in Word document, over 20,000 words :D)

do barely organised worldbuilding notes count? I could tell you some things about it and maybe finally go back to working on it. There are deified turtles

That's it? I honest to God thought there was more to it, but well I was mistaken once again. Ask away I'm more than a little excited to ramble about all of this (maybe not the feels one because there really isn't much more to it but I can share some pieces)

If you want you can specify in ask if you would like a snippet or some info. If you don't do that you are condemned to whatever I'm more excited about.

I hope you all will like it

text:

on some days, it feels hard to just exist. everyone and everything seems designed to hurt you but you persevere. you still pack up your things, leave work, and take the traffic-clogged route back home.

you still unlock your door and expect to walk into a cold house, with nothing but emptiness screaming back at you. you still return back to your unbearably lonely life.

but to your surprise, a pleasant smell from the kitchen wafts through the hallway instead. the house is warmly lit, not too bright, just how you like it, and before long, a familiar voice that rips through the glass in your heart floods your consciousness.

"y/n? is that you?" Chan calls and moments later, appears with an apron tied to his front.

you stare at your best friend, looking a little silly in an apron that's a size too small for him, curls a mess, his smile a million moons bright. you sigh. how could you not fall in love?

"when did you get here?" you ask, setting your things down and taking your shoes off.

"about half an hour ago," he says. "the boys had me leave a little early and i didn't know where else to go."

it was in moments like this that you mentally patted yourself on the back for giving Chan the spare key to your residence. you mirrored his smile, trying your best not to look too tired but he caught onto it as always. there's no hiding from him.

"you look like you haven't slept in weeks," he remarks. "is everything okay?"

you don't have it in you to smile anymore. he walks over, arms sliding around your waist and pulling you into a gentle hug. his fingers go into your hair and scratch your scalp as you sigh into his shoulder.

"it's a lot of things," you manage to speak. "but I'm glad you're here."

"i'm glad i'm here too. it breaks my heart to see you like this," he whispers close to your ear, and you shiver.

the two of you finish up dinner and sit on the couch next to each other, a show no one is watching running in the background. your chest feels immensely lighter, but you're still not nearly through with your feelings. you feel your throat closing up every few minutes, and you speak up before you could cry again.

"can we cuddle?" you ask. "i don't feel too good."

without a word, he shifts closer to you, pulling you into his arms and you melt. here was a guy who had always been there, no questions asked, no conditions put. and you loved him. you realized that every single second of the day. and even more so when he was around.

you feel his mouth pressing a kiss to your temple, rubbing warmth into your shoulder and you snuggle closer.

"tell me something nice," you mumble into his chest, his heart beating steadily under your cheek.

"hmmm," he thinks. "i like it when we're close like this. like, me being able to hold you and you just give up all your cares and relax."

you smile, turning your head up to look at him. his hair fell into his eyes and you reached a hand up to brush them away, fingers lingering by the side of his face. too pretty. he was too pretty.

"what else do you like?" you ask.

you saw his cheeks get flushed, scarlet spilling over his pale skin. his eyes searched yours, dark irises boring into your own before he let out a soft whisper.

"you."

"are you-"

"yeah. i'm serious." he spoke. "and you don't have to say anything, like i understand if you don't feel the same way but-"

you put a hand around him and pull him down from the back of his neck, your lips pressing into his. you had never imagined you'd live to see this moment, but here it was. here chan was- his lips softer than cotton, skin so warm beneath your fingers, his cologne flooding your senses.

he kissed you back and the world spun in lazy circles for you. you drew him closer and didn't let go until the two of you were panting for breath. he giggled, and you followed, the sounds of your combined laughter filling up the room.

"wow," he spoke. "i'd never expected you to feel the same."

"but i do. deal with it."

tw for blood, death, recurring mentions of an open wound

-----------------

There's so much blood. Too much blood.

Kaia's numb as she puts pressure on the wound, more and more pressure. Her mind is a faraway thing, a distant observer. She hears as though submerged in water, her eyes wide but unseeing.

Am I in shock? But she doesn't care enough. Vaguely, she hears her voice, loud and piercing, commanding someone to order a medic, commanding others to gather clean cloths and a basin of water, boiled or not. Stitches-- so needle and thread, and ointment, and more cloths, more water, everything.

"Kaia," and the word from the wounded boy at her side is enough to pull her to reality like a cold jolt.

"I'm here," her voice is suddenly soft. She can hear the disbelief in her voice, can hear the careful mask torn away to reveal the fear underneath. "I'm here."

She forces her gaze up, away from the fatal wound and to Kayron's eyes. Her entire body shakes with adrenaline, with a need to do something but unable to do anything. What can anyone do in the face of Death's blind sword?

He's looking at her, face white with pain that isn't entirely physical.

He knows thinks he's going to die.

"You're-you're-you're going to live, Kayron, okay? There's- there's help on the way, you-"

"I'm sorry, Kaia."

Another pour of ice-cold desperation.

"What are you- what are you saying?" And now Kaia's voice is ringed with tears, wobbly and messy and, oh, they were only children.

Kayron smiles weakly. "You were- always the strong one, you know that, yeah?"

He coughs, grimacing when his wound tenses.

"Spirits, Kai. I'm so sorry."

Kaia would shut him up if she could. She'd tell him to stop talking, tell him to stop being stupid, to save his strength and focus on resting, but her throat is clogged, and some miserable part of her thinks to let him say what he wants to say. This might be the last time he gets to say these things at all.

Instead, Kaia presses a trembling hand to Kayron's cheek as her vision blurs with tears.

"I should have been stronger for you. I should have protected you better. You shouldn't have had to suffer so much. I'm so sorry, Kaia. Can you forgive me? Forgive your brother for being weak."

No, no, Kayron. You have it all wrong.

"Kay- no- no. I-I could be strong because of you. What am I without you?"

Kayron leans into Kaia's hand, squeezing his eyes shut. His breathing comes shorter, and his eyebrows draw tight with agony. Now he's crying too, quietly.

"Oh, Kai. I don't want to die. I'm not ready to die."

His eyes flutter back open, a little more unfocused than they were, that half-smile of his still offering her comfort.

"I don't want to die. If I die, you- you'll be all alone. Oh, Kaia."

Her heart wretches, each beat painful, as though they were linked to her brother's.

"Please don't go, Kayron."

"Please don't ask me to stay, Kaia."

More pressure. Live. Live!

"Kayron, I love you."

"And you know I always loved you."

When Kayron's chest fails to rise, Kaia falls, draping her body over her brother's. She cries freely, her arms hold his body tight against hers.

Kaia screams for the first time in her life. It claws itself up from the depths of her heart and tears her throat with blood and Kaia screams.

But perhaps the sun will be kinder to us tomorrow.

[the-real-zhora-salome]

I hate to see the TROP hate too. I admit I was highly skeptical myself at first, esp after the first promo pictures and I was undecided if I even wanted to watch it but after seeing yet another gifset of Elrond and Durin making heart eyes at each other I caved lol. And I'm so glad I did! Yeah there are things I'm not crazy about but there are far more that are actually perfect. Like Khazad Dum or Númenor which just took my breath away. Or everything to do with Durin, Disa and Elrond. It's probably controversial but I even love the Halbrand-Sauron twist. At first I thought he was another generic looking dude being made into Aragorn 2.0 and then the last ep hit me like a train and I loved it. And he was downright creepy in it so I'd say he definitely fits.

So okay what I actually wanted to ask is do you think the negative reactions could derail the show in any way? I actively try to avoid seeing the hate so I don't know if it's just the butthurt population of twitter/tumblr or the general public too. I've read there are 5 seasons planned and I'm afraid that with all the negativity they could shorten it or god forbid stop after season 2? Please tell me I'm being paranoid.

As always with streaming, it's not easy to get really accurate numbers. The streamers themselves only release numbers like "X amount of people watched the first season" without much more detail.

I have seen numbers from that Nielsen site, though. According to them TROP even beat HOTG in total viewing numbers. Where TROP lacked a bit was attracting a younger viewership. They seemed to lean toward HOTG more. (I don't have any links handy, sorry).

What I mean to say is that TROP didn't do nearly as badly as the haters would want you to believe. It may not have been the overwhelming smash hit that Amazon had hoped for, but it certainly didn't "flop".

So I think as always, there is a very vocal minority on social media that scream and rant, but the general public just quietly watch and enjoy without making much of a fuss about it.

Still, there's not guarantee that we will really get all five planned seasons. It certainly depends on how the next seasons will be received. It probably depends on how the second season will be received, for starters.

It's hard to look into the future. I very much hope that we will get all five sesaons, but we will just have to wait and see.

But, you know, as annoying as it may be because they are clogging up the tags with their negative shit, I hope that the haters will continue to hate-watch. They are only bigging up the shows' numbers this way. Heh.

As for what you said about the show itself:

I liked the first ep, but it was rather laden with exposition. The second ep however had the first scene with Elrond and Durin, and I fell in love with that dwarf (and that friendship) faster than I could say "Elendil!" I had to rewind and watch that scene in the elevator several times because I couldn't believe how they had managed to make me bawl my eyes out in the second effing episode already.

This was the moment that I said "okay, I'm fully on board with this"

I agree that Khazad-Dûm and Númenor are two of the highlights of the show. That's where you see every last penny of the budget on your screen. But I've honestly come to love all the plot lines and characters.

The Sauron-reveal was a wee bit spoiled for me because I had seen so much speculation about it. So when it happened, it wasn't much of a surprise to me anymore. I thought they handled it really well, though. Vickers was very creepy, indeed.
