I am three weeks away from the first complete week of vacation i had since march. And while it's entirely on me because i have always just taken a few days here and there during the summer, oh boy do i want that vacation now

I have absolutely nothing planned for that week except for a hair appointment and it's going to be ✨glorious✨✨✨

7 and 39 please!

I’m not sure I’ve got a favourite tag, but I find the “Idiots to Lovers” one highly appropriate for Johnlock.

As for the wildest AU, I think my Horselock fic The Horse and his Doctor is pretty wild and unusual even for an AU. It tends to confuse people who don’t really know what to expect. Kudos to all who’ve given the fic a read anyway ;)

Soap, childhood hc

As a kid, Soap, on top of being obsessed with football and wanting to become a professional player - as a goalie, thank you very much! - was absolutely obsessed with fixing electronics.

It first became apparent when he managed to fix the very old and decrepit television his 6th grade teacher used to show old educational videos on - he unscrewed the back, got a look at the graphics card and other wires and began working on them.

He managed to figure out where the fault in connectivity was before the teacher even realized what was going on.

Later, he brought that knowledge of mechanics to his job with the SAS and specialized in weaponry.

send me an ask with a prompt for the headcanon meme ♥

More Johnlock Fic Recs!

Can I go where you go? Can we always be this close? - by folklorian28 How I imagine they'd move back in together if Mary and Rosie didn't exist. A little angsty but super fun!

Tapestry - by stopthat Harry and Clara are getting remarried and of course, that means double the meddling big gay sister powers are happening. The parentlock fluff is the cutest, the series callbacks are perfect, and our two flatmates have a lot to figure out.

The Burning of the Leaves - by blueink3 Was not expecting to like this one as much as I did, so don't let Major Sholto throw you off. John brings Rosie and Sherlock to visit Sholto at his house and secrets are revealed. Aka Sholto is a great wingman for both of them.

Still here - by solrosan Short and sweet, like excruciatingly sweet. The Season 4 Rosie content we deserved. After the events of the Final Problem, John and Sherlock go home to Rosie and stay there.

Maybe We Could Change His Mind - by thalialunacy All our favorite Sherlock lesbians coming together to stop the stupidity and pining. Featuring Sherlock and Irene being extremely protective and super gay. Plus Harry Watson helping John get over his internalized homophobia.

You're Not Designed to be Alone - thalialunacy - from raising a child together, to getting together, to getting married. this fic pretty much covers it all in short snapshot-like chapters. Plus the Holmeses are on a mission to completely embarrass John and Sherlock, and Harry finds out she has a niece.

Thanks for tagging me @comfect ! 💓

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! and then tag as many people as you have WIPs.

I typically publish each draft as I go for the instant gratification serotonin, so there’s no wip folder on the stickypearls harddrive per se… But here are the cloudlike wip:s in my head that I hope to write when life is less Work Baby Sleep Repeat:

1. A little johnlock oneshot (for the sake of my 17 year old self and because it would be a fun fandom to dive back into)

2. My Blooming Youth femslash casefic

3. Sejong/So-yi angst

4. Sejak smut!! Depending on how satisfied I am with the canon ending it could be a fix-it or something more AU

5. Past Lives fix-it (not that the film needs fixing, but my heart does)

Tagging @drivingsideways , @haraxvati , @elderflowergin , @angryteapott , and @solrosan if you want to share!

all of himself that is good (ao3) - shellybelle T, 33k

Summary: "You're all grown up," Tony tells him. "You've got a wife, and kids. Why didn't you think about them before you chose the wrong side?"

Clint is a father first. But not all family is flesh and blood.

all this comes back to me, then goes again (ao3) - andibeth82 T, 38k

Summary: Here’s the thing about Laura Barton: Everyone assumes she met Clint first. After all, he had a farm, and he had kids, and he had a life that seemed like it came well before Natasha Romanoff and the Avengers.

Here’s the thing about Laura Barton: The real truth is that she fell in love with Natasha Romanoff first.

and as to me, i know nothing else but miracles (ao3) - andibeth82 T, 10k

Summary: Soulmark aside, she’d long accepted the fact she’d become attracted to Clint in a way that transcended him just being a comfort and a best friend, though other than casual cuddling and playful banter, they’d never done anything to push those boundaries. But while Natasha may have spent a lifetime breaking up relationships in every way, she knows that this is different, and that she loves Clint and Laura too much to try to get in the middle of that relationship.

Asphodel (ao3) - Sanctuaria T, 38k

Summary: Post-Endgame.

After sacrificing herself on Vormir, Natasha wakes up in a strange world of perpetual orange twilight.

Of course, she's not the only one stuck there.

for the half of ourselves we have lost (ao3) - andibeth82 M, 179k

Summary: Natasha says, "No matter what happens, this family will always be the one thing we have. We’ve all put each other through too much shit to let anything come between us.”

Clint says, “You know what it means to owe a debt, Nat.”

[a family picking up the pieces, before and after the war]

From Feral Beginnings to Found Family (ao3) - breatheforeverypart M, 75k

Summary: Welcome to the Barton Farm! The house is under construction. Clint is often away on S.H.I.E.L.D. missions. Laura's working part time, while caring for their one year old daughter, Lila. Add a half-feral ex-Red Room agent and an emergency foster placement to the mix and any ties to a normal family are severed.

What is their new normal? Could it be that the ensuing chaos will forge a found family that can withstand anything life throws their way?

Home’s not home without Auntie Nat (ao3) - PanicMoon15 G, 5k

Summary: Wanda's mind control had a bad effect on Natasha, but Clint's there to help. He brings her home to Laura and the kids with the rest of the Avengers, only to realise it may be his daughter who can be the one to make Auntie Nat feel better.

Auntie Nat needs cuddles. The Barton family is there to provide them.

i love only that which they defend (ao3) - andibeth82 M, 46k

Summary: She finds that she laughs more with Natasha, almost as much as she does with Clint, but for different reasons. Clint had his huge heart and his stupid jokes and easygoing demeanor that Laura had always been attracted to, his perpetually messed up hair and klutzy manner that caused him to drop a slice of pizza on the floor or spill coffee on the couch -- all of the things that had made her fall in love with him in the first place.

Natasha, for all that she was stoic and rigid and carved out of knives and battle scars, was warm in a way that Laura couldn’t quite describe, as if she was a perfect fit for the missing piece Laura had always been looking for in both a friend and a partner.

My Soulmate's Soulmate (ao3) - solrosan G, 3k

Summary: Clint married a woman with two names on her wrist – his, and one written with Russian letters.

nor need we power or splendor (ao3) - shellybelle M, 242k

Summary: She hadn’t been sure, at the time, what had finally driven her away from the training center, brought her to book a flight to Waterloo and rent a car for the drive out out to the farm. But when she had packed a bag and headed to the nearest airport, it hadn’t been her apartment in New York or her condo in DC or her London townhouse or any number of hidden bolt-holes she kept around the world that she’d flown to, but a creaking, busy farmhouse in Iowa. (Or: It's been a long journey to get to where they are, and it'll be an even longer journey home.)

Out of Darkness there is Light (ao3) - Rouko E, 66k

Summary: Loki, battered adopted son of Odin is captured by the Avengers and resigns himself to whatever punishment awaits him on return to the realm he once thought was his home. Enter an insomniac billionaire that sees something no one else does. Can his sharp wit and lethal tongue save the God of Mischief from a fate he doesn't deserve?

If he can save him, what then? Is he still an enemy or could he be turned to the side of good? Can a snarky God known for his silvertongue and lies really be trusted to become an ally to Earth? Tony Stark is going to find out.

ThIs fic takes place immediately after the Avengers Assemble movie and Iron Man 1 & 2. COMPLETE!

She's My Cherry Pie (ao3) - sheis-theslayer (Perididdle) E, 3k

Summary: If Laura Barton has said it once, she has said it a thousand times: no one touches the food while she's cooking. Especially if it's her pies.

But Natasha Romanoff never listens.

the growing season (ao3) - sweetwatersong G, 6k

Summary: Three summers Natasha spends at the farmhouse and two she spends at home.

the landslide will bring it down (ao3) - smallblueandloud T, 10k

Summary: Lila is crying, taking big gulps of air in between her words. She’s scared. In the background, there’s a baby crying, but Natasha barely registers it.

“Mama and Daddy just- they just- Mama Tasha, I can’t find them.” In her mind’s eye, Natasha can see her: a scared eleven year old girl, with her hair in braids, clutching the landline. “Cooper disappeared in front of me. It’s just me and Nathaniel, and I don’t know what to do. Mama-”

(or, natasha's spouses and eldest child dissolve into ash - and she is left to pick up the pieces)

til the clocks run down (ao3) - andibeth82 M, 257k

Summary: "I think I do love her."

The words don’t shock her -- not really, not when she lets herself think about it. She does believe that Clint hadn't been sure about how deep his feelings for Natasha went the first time he admitted his attraction to her. But Laura would have been a fool to believe there wasn’t something more developing, especially after being around them in the few times they’d visited together since Clint’s confession. It had been easy to tell how their partnership was becoming comfortable, a relationship as worn and cozy as the one Laura’s built for herself with the man she’s loved for almost eight years.

last song: "Past The Mission" by Tori Amos (I'm going to see her in concert in a few months! which I think I last did in ~2003... if anyone wants to rec me their fave songs of hers from the past 20 years, feel free XD)

last show: Just finished Yellowjackets S1 with HAMTACO (which we liked many aspects of but were overall disappointed by; not sure we'll keep watching)

currently watching: The Last of Us (love it; have cried so very much); Shrinking (liking it more with every episode, but don't fully adore it except Harrison Ford); ST:VOY; rewatching BtVS and ST:LD

currently reading: Queen of the Damned by Anne Rice -- the show got me on a reread kick! :D Last time I read the series, there were only 4 or 5 books, so I'm looking forward to reading some new-to-me Vampire Chronicles soon, too. (I'm also 5-25% into about seven other books, and I think I'll abandon most of them. Having a lot of trouble getting hooked by new stuff at the moment.) A fanfic I am currently enjoying is "to put the world between us" (a cherik actor AU) by @x-populuxe .

current obsession: Ted Lasso, still. :) I'm tbh a bit terrified of S3, because the last time a show I was this into came out with a new season, it was Sherlock, and that was a massive disappointment for me (both in terms of canon and in terms of resulting fandom drama). But I'm nonetheless also excited for the new episodes and the new fanworks they'll hopefully inspire -- and I'm happy to be writing fic again, thanks to two seconds of inspiration from the trailer, lol. (Edit: also still obsessed about the differences between F/F, F/M, and M/M, and looking forward to posting a new chapter about dark fic & related tropes in the not too distant future.)

Sometimes, I write stuff

Based on this answer for @solrosan ask

@lottelorelei you migjt be interested in this too

Blue Dragons

They hear it coming first.

Not that they would know how to recognize the sounds of immense wings flapping into the night sky.

They feel the wind next. See the trees leaning to one side, as if trying to escape from a terrible storm.

More sound, as weaker branches start to crack under the assault of the strong winds.

Then, they see it.

Or rather, they see many a star all at once being obscured by that huge mass speeding in the village direction.

It is far too late to flee when the glow of the torches finally catches golden scales.

The ground shake under their feet when the Golden Dragon lands at the village's walls.

The walls had always seemed so tall to Eggsy, even after he was no longer a child trying to climb over them to go explore the world, unheeding of his mother's cries that he would break his neck. He never did, but he also never managed to scale the stones all the way over to the top until he was much older and much more experimented.

Next to the looming Golden Dragon, they seem puny. Inconsequential.

For the first time in his life, Eggsy is paralyzed with horror, his eyes riveted to the massive beast about to destroy their lives.

For the first time in his life, as the Golden Dragon cocks its head in his direction, Eggsy understand true despair.

None of their plans matter now. They never did.

It was pure hubris to think they could ever stand against Valentine.

Only a miracle could save them now.

And he's never believed in those.

solrosan's fandom year 2023

Wow, we're doing this late this year!

Because of ReasonsTM, this year has been pretty low on fannish activities, but there are still some things to sum up!

2023 was the year that I…

…stepped down as an OTW Translation volunteer (because of ReasonsTM)

…started a tag that people say they smile/giggle at every time they see

…set my own NaNoWriMo goal at 6000 words and reached 13113!

…unfollowed and refollowed Neil Gaiman more times that I care to remember due to Tumblr being its usual bitchy self (yes, this was related to the Good Omens’ premiere).

…used a free trial on Amazon Prime (also related to Good Omens)

…bought my mum a Christmas present from her current fandom

…realised my April Fool’s joke backfired hard

…gave into bandom

…almost allowed myself to become a kpop blog for real

…spent so many nights watching concert videos

(…actually watched so much INFINITE on YouTube that their algorithm has run out of content to show me)

…fell in love with Richard Armitage and his singing voice

…realised Spotify wraps funny due to the point above

…finally named a very important OC

…found my portable HD again

…had the intention to do Whumpril

…honestly believed I’d finish THE femslash fic

…started posting old fics

...watched more TV than I think I ever have

...can't remember a single thing I watched

(...except Good Omens, Bloodhounds, season 2 of D.P., Moving, and half of the last The Crown season)

...finally moved into the cabin with @elletromil and @insanereddragon (or at least renamed the chat after the day dream)

Stats:

I posted 7 955 words on AO3

They were split over four works

One is new, three are reworked and posted

All of them are in The King: Eternal Monarch

The engagement with them are so low that I won't do a most hits/comment/kudosed

This is the tumblr post with most notes from 2023

(It's also my main project this year, I'm very pleased with the result so far. Still a WIP though.)

Lastly, a huge thank you to everyone who I've talked to this year! You've kept me sane and you've kept me connected to myself. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm so sorry if you feel like I've drifted off.

Special shout out to @blau-s and all our discussions about our little AUs. Thank you for sharing, and thank you for listening! We will finish them one day! (Right?)
