Back in the day closeted american gay men used to say that they were "friends of Dorothy", now I think they should say "we dug coal together"

(This is just me being silly dont get too worked up yall)

[hsm2]

I've been lying to you, Boyd... keeping up the fiction that I got all manner of things tying me to Kentucky, things that forestall my moving to Florida, but there is only the one thing- you.

Every Time Boyd Says Raylan’s Name (Season One)

It’s the entire range of human feeling. It’s a master class in acting. It’s neurodivergent coding. It’s a seminal text of queer theory.

I don’t have an excuse for this. I am so unhinged that I am flapping in the breeze. I intend to do one for each season and then a master cut for the whole series. Because I want to see how long I can get it. I hope someone else needed this in their lives as much as I did.

like… they didn’t have to walk this close together and gaze fondly into each other’s eyes… but they did.

Justified March Madness 2024 🏀

March Madness is back! For the second year in a row, we're hosting a drabble elimination tournament.

Consisting of four categories, drabbles will be pitted against each other until only one is left standing.

Winners in their category will receive a special prize: a unique role & color in the Justified Discord server.

Submissions are open now! Final due date to participate is March 17th!

This year's categories:

Givenson aka Raylan Givens/Tim Gutterson

RaylanBoyd aka Raylan Givens/Boyd Crowder

Rarepair (any pairing that is not givenson, raylanboyd, or canon)

Justified: City Primeval (may feature any characters or pairings but should take place in JCP's timeline and focus on the limited series itself)

Rules

» Drabbles must be exactly 100 words! Each submission will be checked in a word counter to confirm compliance. You'll get one chance to edit and fix it if you're over or under the word limit.

» You can enter a maximum of two drabbles per category.

» Please retain your anonymity until the tournament is complete! Do not publicly post your drabbles or share snippets. Once all the winners are announced, a collection will be opened on AO3 and participants are encouraged to add their submissions to it.

Voting

Will be held via Google Forms. You'll vote for your favorite and we'll continue on through the matchups until we have a winner!

Justified fanwork offerings for FTH!

Whoo! (as Boyd would say!) Justified has NINE! (9!) fanworks in the 2024 @fandomtrumpshate auction!

For the eighth year in a row, the volunteer organizators at Fandom Trumps Hate have put together a charity auction centered around fandom. It works basically like this:

Step 1: Creators offer to donate their time and labor in specific ways

Step 2: Donors bid on their favorite options

Step 3: The winning bidders donate the winning amount to the chosen charity (the list is available in the item description)

Step 4: The donation receipt goes to the lovely organizers

Step 5: In gratitude for the donation, creators gift donors a fanwork!

Step 6: Everyone wins! And nobody makes any money.

"This seems suspicious," you say. Don't take my word for it. Read more about it here!

What does this have to do with Justified? The creators below are offering their time and labor to the fandom!

nb: I put this together while waiting in line at the DMV, so always check the actual listings for accurate information!

grydo2life is offering to write a fic of less than 5k words, up to an M rating. Do you love Tim? They do too! They primarily write Givenson, but will also write marshal gen fic! Bid on grydo2life for fluff, hurt/comfort, and angst with a happy ending.

schweinsty is offering to write a fic of 5 - 10k words, up to a T rating. Hurt/Comfort is schweinsty’s main area, with a focus on Raylan Givens/Tim Gutterson.

AnneMcSommers is offering to write three fics!

The first is a fic of 20 - 50k words, up to an E rating, of a (much) longer version of any of their Justified stories!

The second offer is to write a fic of 5 -10k words, up to an E rating, with a focus on Raylan/Tim, Raylan/Boyd, Raylan/Boyd/Ava (OT3), and some AUs! In that second offer, poly ships and trans or nonbinary interpretations of canon characters are open!

The third offer is for a fic of less than 5k words, up to an E rating, with a focus on a post apocalypse Harlan AU, preferably OT3 Boyd/Ava/Raylan.

roaroftheninth is offering to write a fic of 5 -10k words, up to an E rating. You into a rarepair? They love them, including M/M, F/F, M/F, and poly ships, or friendship fic, with a focus on canon or canon-adjacent AUs with an interest in F/F ships, poly ships, and genderswap / genderbending.

WillowMcKinley is offering two options! WillowMcKinley has specific themes, tropes, and kinks in mind for this, so check that listing!

The first is a fic of less than 5k words, up to an E rating, with a focus on Boyd/Raylan or Raylan & Loretta (platonic).

The second is a podfic of less than 5k words, up to an E rating, with a focus on Boyd/Raylan or Raylan & Loretta (platonic).

I, @pawpawholler, also have an offer at Grace_Hill, AKA E_Greer. I will write you a fic of 5-10K, up to an E rating, with a pro-Appalachian focus on Raylan/Boyd or Raylan/Boyd/Ava. (I have a novel-length accidental baby acquisition plotted, if you’re interested and willing to bump up that donation accordingly.)

Bidding for the auction runs March 5th-9th!

Read about these offerings in more detail now at the links above. You can also follow @fandomtrumpshate if you want reminders!

Yeah, so…I have become a liiiiittle obsessed with Justified over the last months.

Particularly with the mess of a ship that Raylan/Boyd is.

And uhm. I tried not to write about them.

I REALLY FUCKING TRIED.

But that idea stayed stuck in my head and uh, so…I wrote a thing.

The first 5 chapters are finished and I just uploaded the first one at AO3.

Enjoy, I guess? If anyone wants to read this.

You know I won‘t let you get away

SUMMARY:

When Raylan receives a letter from Boyd, everything changes.

Not because it‘s their first contact in years. Not because Boyd tells him he is being released from prison before the end of his sentence. But because Boyd gets out of prison on compassionate release. The coal dust has caught up with him for good, he claims. Raylan isn‘t sure what to believe.

So he has to make sure his favorite criminal really is a dead man walking and not planning one more coup. That‘s all. That‘s why he turns up on his day of release. No other reason.

Ok maybe there is, but neither Raylan nor Boyd want to admit it.

Until they both realize that a ticking clock in the background might just be their last and only chance at a window of togetherness.

(Takes place after the original series finale and ignores primeval)

CN: Cancer, mentions of past violence and murders, mentioned experiences with homophobia, major character death, signs of illness, mentions of medication

Every Time Boyd Says Raylan’s Name (Season 2)

https://youtu.be/9JBLFOGiAR0?si=3e2D-8VNUzYHV4SP

I didn’t see him blowing kisses on my first watch so I kept that in because it punched me in the throat. Also, bonus hat handing.

Thank you all for the engagement with part one! I feel extremely vindicated in how these two have destroyed my life.

Season One

Enjoy!
