Listen, you should never film strangers in public without their consent, but I swear there need to be fines or something for people who do that shit in some spaces. For example: I had to go to the ER last night, and some jerk filmed a woman who just came in and was clearly having an asthma attack. She immediately got to go back, and he was unhappy about that. Believe me, I get that it sucks having to wait when you're in pain, but you don't get to pick who deserves care when. The medical system in the US is a nightmare, and the ER could be the worst moment of someone's life. No one deserves to be recorded because some jack ass believes someone doesn't look like they need care.

This is fine to reblog. People who film strangers should be shamed if nothing else.

EVEN MORE CUTE DOTTORE MOMENTS TO MAKE YOU SMILE 🙏 (because I am too tired to post anything of quality)

[reds-skull]

My pc is in a repair shop and I got nothing to do, so here's a list of fic ideas I'll probably never do anything with, in no particular order:

Ghost, SAS Lieutenant, needs to gather intel from a secret agent at a party. He doesn't know how the man looks, only the agreed upon signal. Cut to Soap, the secret agent, trying very hard to save Ghost from an enemy that somehow knew the signal and is now taking Ghost to a more "secure area".

Soap is a councilor at a prestigious summer camp, along with a few others. He doesn't really fit in with the rest, far too rich to relate to, so he spends most of his time taking care of a memorial for one Simon Riley, who died in the nearby lake 10 years ago. When Ghost, a local hunter, starts terrorizing the camp, Soap is somehow spared. Eventually Ghost goes on a murder spree, despite Soap's efforts to stop him, but when the other councilors tried to prank Soap, Ghost didn't really care to end their lives over it.

Ghost encounters an SAS soldier on the field, from a different squad. He soon finds out the soldier is non verbal. Which is a problem when they're in an active warzone, and he doesn't know sign language. Through a lot of pointing and miming, they somehow find a way to survive, and Ghost comes to like the company of 'Soap', as the man pointed to one when he asked for his name.

Soap is a famous actor, with a beautiful girlfriend, big movie on its way, and millions of fans across the world. His coworkers, Gaz, Price, and his bodyguard Ghost, are ones he considers close friends at this point. It all comes crashing down when he finds his girlfriend cheating on him. Not a day later, her room is trashed, threats and warnings to stay away from Soap carved into the walls. Soap and Ghost uncover the existence of a stalker, one that is slowly becoming more and more violent. All the while, Soap finds himself in his first romance movie, imagining his bodyguard in the place of his supposed love interest.

Ghost doesn't give attention to most soldiers on his base, and especially not to Soap MacTavish. The Scottish Sergeant is the most unserious, annoying bastard he ever had the misfortune of knowing. His view of him changes when they're assigned on a mission together, and Ghost witnesses just how skilled Soap really is. Over time, he finds out why Soap keeps on a mask of a bumbling idiot, and digs deeper into the strange behavior of his superiors. Namely, how they seem to almost sabotage Soap every step of the way.

Ghost and Gaz are sent on a mission in the Russian tundras, to salvage intel from an abandoned prison complex. Only, they soon find it's not abandoned at all - a single man is locked behind bars, surrounded by dozens of guards. After rescuing him, the 141 soon discovers he suffers from amnesia, and only remembers his callsign, Soap. As foreign forces continue to attempt to kidnap Soap back, and as his memory comes back, John MacTavish comes to a horrifying conclusion: he betrayed his old squad, and his capture was not accidental. His original mission? Infiltrate the 141, and bring it down.

Simon Riley, owner and butcher at his own small shop, suspiciously eyes the man that has been hanging around his shop for the last 15 minutes. He's going to kick him out if he doesn't buy anything, and he tells the man so, but the fear he recognizes in his eyes stalls him. Ghost catches a flash of a camera outside the window, and the man tells him he's actually hiding from 'them'. Ghost, built as he is, simply goes and scares them away. The man inside brightens, and introduces himself as John. From that day on, John comes back, bringing tea and breakfast at the early opening hours. Ghost finds it a little weird, but the company becomes comforting soon enough. Once, he let it slip to John that the shop isn't doing too well, and the very next day a slew of costumers arrived at his doorstep, muttering excitedly about a "Soap MacTavish". It's only when his old mates Price and Gaz come by the shop, that Ghost discovers his friend "John" is no other than the famous actor nicknamed "Soap". Simon doesn't understand the shock on Price and Gaz's face even after the name is revealed, and Soap loves him all the more for it.

Wip Wednesday ☔️

I was tagged by @daffi-990 @theotherbuckley and @exhuastedpigeon thank youuu 💛

I know, I know, I've been slacking with the wips lately, but I'm finally back knee-deep in the mudslide fic, which has now passed 48k in the main file 🫡 — and yet at the same time, I am totally running out of snippets to post that aren't too spoilery smh

So here, have this tidbit from somewhere closer to the beginning:

One second everything was just like before; people hustling and bustling around, carrying the injured on backboards from one place to the other, sending the ever circulating line of ambulances on their way down the road — and the next second the ground was rumbling under their feet.

He should’ve known, he should’ve known, he should’ve—

The main road was directly in the way of the slide and Buck snapped his head towards it so fast, he almost gave himself whiplash.

He watched cars get turned inwards and disappear under the wave of muddy water running down from the top of the hill, erasing them as if they’ve never even been there. Buck just stood there, all the blood running out of his body as he watched the mud push debris, rocks and bits of walls and fences out of its way before blanketing most everything in its wake, all the way down to the bottom where the trucks were now almost fully enveloped, only the very top inches visible as the water thrashed them around and licked at the underside of the bridge like a starving beast.

Suddenly everything moved in slow motion and the world dulled around Buck as he looked from left to right, barely even registering the shouts of names and the crackling of radios coming from all directions, the color of the gear of the rescue workers was seemingly one with the wet dirt all around them.

But on his next inhale everything rushed back to him; all the movements, the sounds, the colors — all with a terrifying realization.

emailing about whether or not im eligible to apply for a library card like. well what if they think im greedy for books...

anytime I have to scroll thru a big fandom on ao3 there’s always dozens of chat fics and it makes me sad bc 9 times out of 10 they don’t have plots or are too ooc for me to want to read and it sucks bc I feel like the concept of an epistolary story told with only text messages is so fun!! Accounting for the diff ways characters would type/use emojis/emotes, how fast they would respond (if they have time stamps in the story) who’s getting left on read, trying to extrapolate what’s going on behind the texts, how a plot could progress in a text only format… it has so much potential yet usually it’s only lolrandom type meme stories which don’t scratch that itch for me 😔

i need to read an adam parrish character study fic that's at least 50k words where it's post-canon and he gets Worse and ends things with ronan on bad terms and screws people over and then slowly crawls his way back into a healthier life

[shehungthemoon]

Oh nothing just thinking about the deliberate parallels between House & Chase, Cuddy & Foreman, Wilson & Cameron. Just losing my mind over them.

It’s the Cameron/Chase marriage, then “Everybody Dies”. It’s Cuddy/House’s “I hate you but I’d do the worst for you”, then Foreman’s lie for Chase over Dibala. It’s how Cameron left over her inability to accept that everyone had lost the humanity she held so dear, and then broke the pattern. Because she couldn’t love Chase’s bad like Wilson could love House’s bad.

there's like a fairly popular tumblr user whose posts I see a lot and it always makes me laugh because I remember years ago we were mutuals and they would post like lame or stupid posts and I'd defend them like "guys don't get on their case they're 15 they don't know any better" because at the time they were in fact 15

I AM BACK WITH SORRY ITS LOCKED SNIPPETS FINALLY WHOOOOOOOO

This fic is so close to being finished it's actually kinda scary, like what do you MEAN I won't just have this to fall back on and I'll have to start writing the other fics I have planned for the series??? I won't just be able to come back to writing sorry it's locked every time I get stuck on something else???

Anyway, the snippets are hidden under the thingy because they're very much just smut (tho Tim and Jay haven't actually gotten anywhere yet, it's mostly just Tim teasing Jay, so it's not too bad i guess). I'm always so hesitant about posting snippets once I get to the horny part of a fic, because it's just sex, nothing else to it and that just seems weird to me, but also like, eh, it's smut and that's awesome 💀💀💀

Anyway, minors please shoo, snippets under the read more thingymabob

They don't all connect to each other, but they kinda look like they do lol

katie, love, darling, the smartest person in my life - i need, you don't understand how much, the outtakes of boyband au. i will die.

no pressure obviously, im just being dramatic

hello my darling 😘 I LOVE YOU!! please don't die... then you wouldn't be able to read the outtakes when they finally get posted in 2036 🤣😭

in all seriousness, though: thank you so much for asking!! the boyband au has such a special place in my heart, so i am only too happy to tell you a little more about its sequel-of-sorts ❤️

i say "sequel-of-sorts" because it isn't QUITE a sequel in the traditional sense - like the WIP title says, it's a collection of outtakes. this means everything from deleted scenes to bonus/extra scenes that fit in the same timeline as the main fic, some POV switch scenes, and also perhaps a future scene or two.

some of my favourite outtake ideas so far:

a deleted scene where the boys bicker about the description of them as a "British-French boyband"

a bonus scene detailing pierre and charles' first meeting in the X Factor bathrooms

another deleted scene, this time an extended version of the changing room confession scene, ft. galex

a very sad scene that was in the orgininal planning, but never got written/got cut - wherein pierre finds charles crying after a tough show, but charles pushes him away

another bonus scene featuring tour bus shenanigans

an alternate confession scene revolving around the 1D song "i wish" and how charles wrote it for pierre

bonus future scene: pierre and charles' first time 🤭😏 c'mon, i wrote an entire 50k fic with no smut at all. but that's a lot of time worldbuilding, and you can BET i have headcanons for what their first time was like!!

and finally - this one is still quite up in the air, but it's a strong possibility thanks to my beloved @welightitup - a longer spinoff/sequel telling a landoscar story in which lando is essentially niall and oscar is josh devine/the band's drummer 👀🥁

yeahhhh... as you can probably tell, i have a lot of thoughts about this AU. oh my god. SO MANY. i am obsessed with this little world i've created, and as soon as i get my writing mojo back and time/my other WIP commitments allow (so yeah, 2036 🤣😭) i am SO excited to start posting the outtakes <33333

[deaths]

a card shop opened near my house so there is like 5 card shops or just general nerd shops within 30 minutes of me now. there must be a strong concentration of nerds near me or something. this feels a bit excessive 😭
