happy yuekka snippet incoming <3

Sokka blinks his eyes open groggily. Light streams in through the open windows, curtains billowing in the breeze.

Just when he closes his eyes again, a warm presence shifts beside him. “Morning, dear.”

He turns on his side to face Yue, who is looking at him with a grin. Several strands of hair have fallen out of her double braids, spread out wildly over the pillow or sticking to her face, and sleep has gathered in her eyes, but to Sokka, she looks like the most beautiful thing in the world.

He kisses her nose, eliciting a giggle from her. “Morning, love.”

She nuzzles her face against his neck. “You’re so warm.”

Sokka laughs, a warm and hearty rumble. “We have to get up soon.”

“Hmm, I know,” she says, voice muffled. “But I don’t wanna.”

He considers for a moment, then hums. “Okay, then we won’t. Not yet. We can spare a few minutes.”

Yue pulls back to teasingly raise an eyebrow at him. “Is that so, minister of plans? Is there space for a few minutes of cuddling in your schedule?”

He pretends to check his watch. “According to my”—he whistles—“calculations, we should have an eleven-and-a-half minute gap—eleven twenty-five now. Twenty-four. Twenty-three. Twenty–”

Yue pulls a pillow over his face to shut him up. She raises her voice over his protests with a grin. “Then we should make the most of our eleven minutes and fifteen seconds, shouldn’t we?”

When he throws the pillow back at her—no real muscle behind it, more for continuing the bit than anything—she just catches it and props it up against the headboard. Then she wraps her arms around his torso and lays her head on this shoulder. He pulls her close against his chest, tight but gentle, and tangles their legs together. He closes his eyes, content. They have a few minutes to spare, indeed.

(edit: full fic here now)

20 questions for fic writers

1. how many works do you have on ao3?

69 which... is honestly more than i was expecting? i think it helps that my goal is to post a fic once a month mostly bc that's my motivation to keep writing even when i'm busy/stressed!

2. what's your total ao3 word count?

396,183 - omg i am SO CLOSE to 400k ahhhhhhhhh

3. what fandoms do you write for?

4. what are your top five fics by kudos?

hey, little songbird, give me a song

you never quite say (but i hear)

lost in love and lost in feelings

Deeper Than Words

for a new world to begin, the old one must fall

okay the #1 for that is honestly so real that is one of my absolute favorite things i've written EVER lol, same with #2! the rest are... idk #4 is AWFUL - like one of my first atla fics and also my first time writing a ts fic (i have gotten SO MUCH BETTER AT IT NOW)

*note: i started this in like nov or early dec, and #5 changed! it was the zukka goose fic but now it's actually one of my favorites iugytfyhujiko

5. do you respond to comments

i used to be good at it. then i got stressed bc of school. and then i was suddenly like "uhhhh idk How to respond???" i think the thing that got me was i didn't know how to reply to the distressed comments on my sokka falling fic so i just. accidentally stopped.

6. what is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

oh here in the garden (let's play a game) 100% rip to sokka sorry babes ilysm hate to do it to ya, love the angst tho <333 rip to everyone who missed the major character death tag lol. well... that or a spring and summer song, too brief rip to geto in the +1 oops... oh shoot... it could also be take me where my soul can run... hm...

7. what is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

this was hard, but imma go with i was a child and she was a child bc it's based on one of my favorite childhood memories! rip to zuko and his ice cream tho :/ but azula is VIBING the whole time oiuygfcgyhuij

8. do you get hate on fics?

not really? i did once have someone try to correct me and say that i wrote sokka with ocd instead of tourette's but it was in the bookmarks and it made me laugh lol. i also got this comment on my kubokai kaidou with ts fic: ".. the self projection is heavy in this one ... -_-" so idk if that counts lol

9. do you write smut? if so, what kind?

nope :)

10. do you write crossovers? what's the craziest one you've written?

uhhhh not really? i wrote ninjago equestria girls crossover oneshot in middle school but i never finished it and it SUCKED lol

11. have you ever had a fic stolen?

not that i know of?

12. what's the longest you've spent working on a fic? and the shortest?

uhhh i wrote a 7,600 word fic in three hours while i had covid? that's prolly the shortest? i count that as shorter than anything i may have finished faster bc i had covid lol but longest? ummmm over a year? multiple years? idkkkkkk the jay with ts fic i posted was something i wrote in 2019 and i edited it (a lot) and posted it in 2022 so??? that maybe?

13. have you ever co-written a fic before?

uhhh i did with friends in middle/high school, but those never left the docs! also grace and i have. very many much so aus lol

14. what's your all-time favorite ship? from all fandoms?

RARIJACK!!! it was one of my first hardcore ships, and also was my introduction to queer ships!!! renga is a close second, but rarijack just is really important and special to me for sentimental reasons that put it above renga and others! i am also on a seroroki kick right now. it's not my all-time favorite, but the brain rot seems never ending right now lol

15. what's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

GOD SO MANY i have a folder in gdocs just for ninjago fics and there are folders within the folder for different types of wips i'll never finish - i have That many: "no substance", "baby girls", "drafts"... etc...

16. what are your writing strengths?

uhhhhhhhhhh ngl i'm in a place right now where i feel like the answer is Nothing (writer's block has been Bad recently), but i think something i'm good at in a very specific way is making readers feel the discomfort of characters? like idk i've been told that the way i write ts and tics (specifically tic attacks) makes the readers feel uncomfortable in like a "wow i didn't know it felt this way" kind of way??? i like to think i'm good at characterization??? idkkkk

17. what are your writing weaknesses?

ummm setting and scenery & connecting parts of a story, especially if they're parts that i'm stuck on/transitions are prolly my biggest ones???

18. thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

i mean go for it as long as it's respectful and like... you tried making sure it's accurate?

19. first fandom you wrote for?

uhh rainbow fairy/a-z mysteries... but that was like very briefly on paper. first time like... for Realsies was ninjago

20. favorite fic you've written?

oh 100% hey, little songbird, give me a song. it's just really special to me and writing it helped me cope with a new tic i had. but one that i wrote more recently is fantasies i'm not sure that i'm worthy of which is a ritsu-centric fic and is prolly tied as my favorite fic i wrote in 2023. the other one would be sun comes streaming through the window (& i can't sleep anymore) which is my 21k word kenji-centric fic lol but that one is like... i'm more proud of it than anything, which is what puts it up there.

Dear Creator Letter

Hi! I’m Grace, AKA paperbackdreams on AO3. Here’s a breakdown of everything I like and don’t like:

Things I love:

Arranged marriage AU

Hurt/comfort

Fake relationship

Secret relationship

Bonding AU, where two or more characters have to stay close because of magic or technology bonding them together

Dealing with disabilities and chronic illness

Torture and recovery

Enemies to lovers

Friends to lovers

Soulmate AUs with happy endings

Non-con aftermath and recovery 

Things I like:

Omegaverse

De-aging to young adult age (17ish to 25ish)

Hurt/no comfort

Modern celebrity AUs

Modern royalty AUs

There was only one bed

Sickfic (where one or more characters are sick and need to be cared for by another character)

Things that are generally not my thing (with exceptions):

Fandoms!!! 

I’m mostly into ATLA/LOK and Teen Wolf atm. My favorite characters are Sokka, Azula, and Korra from ATLA/LOK, and Stiles and Derek from Teen Wolf. My favorite ship for ATLA  is Zukka, but I’m a huge multishipper and I love MaiLee, Jetko, Jetkka, Sojetko, Kataang, Sukizula, KORRASAMI, and more!! And for teen wolf I love Sterek the most but I ship pretty much everyone with everyone, except stiles/Scott and Melissa/sheriff. 

My favorite character headcanons are Deaf!Yue, Yue with Vitiligo, Autistic Zuko, ADHD!Sokka,  and Sokka with Tourette’s. 

For Teen Wolf:  Autistic Scott, obviously ADHD!Stiles, and Stiles has Magic. I love Everybody Lives AUs, and exploring family relationships in the hale pack is just !!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much!!! :)

[zukkaoru]

for day five of @sokkaweek: pride🏳️‍🌈

so there's this he/they,,,,

(the teal ribbon pin is for tourette's!!)

[ID: A digital drawing of Sokka from the waist up, holding a nonbinary pride flag over his shoulder. He’s wearing a crop top the colors of the bi pride flag. On his shirt are three round pins. One is light blue and reads “he/they” on it, one is light grey with the Tourette’s Syndrome ribbon on it, and one is the colors of the Philadelphia pride flag. His hair is in its usual wolftail, but a little longer than in canon. He’s wearing a dangly moon earring and two helix piercings on his visible ear. His eyes are closed and he’s smiling. The background is light blue with a white Water Tribe symbol behind Sokka. End ID.]

modern au: sokka with tourette’s and autistic zuko

sokka meows as a tic, zuko meows as a stim

echolalia from both parties ensues, and it’s adorable

[beachytablecloth]

you’ve got a friend in me  

Zuko and Sokka agree to babysit for Aang and Katara, but Zuko gets called into work--so he asks Mai to help Sokka instead.

There's only one problem: Sokka is sure Mai hates him.

[Podfic] every lovely bloom designed to defend

"The way Zuko was running to greet him was a breath of fresh air—it was the rays of sun on a gloomy day, the rainbow after the rain.

That joy and that vulnerability that came along with being a human person is part of what made Zuko so beautiful, it’s what made him shine and light up the room, what made his heart beat faster.…

it’s what made the vines in Sokka’s body crawl, what made his stomach writhe in pain as they continued to grow.

The very person who gave him life, who made him feel alive, was the very person sucking the life out of him."

[that-was-anticlimactic]

hello!! ❌, ✅, and 🤭 for the ask game! <3

❌ what's a trope you will never write?

umm smut definitely, not a smut person. bsd has rewired my brain tho and so now i mention sex sometimes but it's still not something i'm interested in writing lol also fics with intense battle scenes bc how do you write battles and fighting😀

✅ what's something that appears in your fics over and over and over again, even if you don't mean to?

umm prolly a character having an inferiority complex lol that happens a lot... a character comparing themselves to other people... people comparing characters to the sun, characters not getting taken seriously,,, oug h

🤭 do you have a favorite tag to use when posting your works?

"miyazawa kenji has tourette's" is my favorite as of recently iouygtfgyhujioiuhy aka, any character with ts tag iouhygtyhuji ngl i'm super proud of myself bc before me, there was only one common character with ts tag (kaminari denki, which is why he's so special to me) but i created like the sokka and reki tags (as well as others, i think those are just the only two i've made common... it's a slow process) anyways i also love tagging fics with "friendship is magic" tehe ooooooh or "*insert character* is a ray of sunshine"!!!
