Prompt 72
Crane is getting desperate. No matter how much he tries to offset it with human food, his stomach continues to feel like a ravenous void. His hands are shaking, vision just as shaky as he tries to continue the delicate process of creating his toxin, even though he knew it wasn’t going to work.
The last seven batches hadn’t had an effect, even as he made them stronger and stronger. He’s getting desperate, feeling more like a starved animal than a man of science.
His throat is dry and scratchy despite him just drinking water, and his fangs easily cause his lips to bleed as he bites at them nervously. He taps his claws impatiently at the table, nausea sweeping over his head for a moment before his vision righted itself while waiting for the fear toxin to finish.
It doesn’t work. It doesn’t work. It’s strong enough to nearly kill anyone else but it does nothing and he’s going to starve. He was in that damn asylum for too long, and he’s going to die and he doesn’t want to-
He’s long since stopped being able to feel fear but at that moment he could almost swear he still could.

Hey! You mentioned a while back that if the other dimension Dipper/Mabel/Ford might call the penthouse for advice in dealing with their Bill, and Familiar!Dipper might pick up the "call". I've been rereading the Bill v Bill series and can't get the scene out of my head. Any chance you'd be interested in writing it?
I'm certainly interested in writing it! I think there's a lot of opportunity for Shenanigans, and that's totally my jam.
The problem is: Actually Getting Around to writing it. But perhaps one day!

transmasc rose who comes out earlier while traveling with nine and jack, and has a good one-two month period where he’s figuring out his own wardrobe and sense of style again, and in the meantime, he just steals jack and the doctor’s clothes.

y’know how gisela makes keefe get clothes tailored to him in book 2 (or maybe book 3), and how his clothes fit approximately before that but never just right? and how keefe canonically has stolen at least one bramble jersey from fitz? i would like to offer the explanation that after keefe wore fitz’s bramble jersey(s), he was like. “alright! i will now make my entire wardrobe full of clothes that are fitz’s size for these completely heterosexual reasons:
1. it makes it easier to disguise the clothes that i have stolen from fitz versus the rest of my clothes
2. it always makes it feel like i’m wearing fitz’s clothes
3. it makes it easier to ‘accidentally’ leave my clothes in places where fitz mistakes them as his, and i see him in my clothes :)”
