#wip: steddiebb2024

[lingeringmirth]

steddiebb2024, please!

The part of him that grew in the Harrington house rebels against it, telling him that men don’t cry, even now when he’s already cried so much, but then, Wayne is omega, so it should be fine. He’s someone who knows Steve and had, presumably, seen him at his worst.

If there had been a worst.

The sight of his scars, which Eddie had tried explaining away as an animal attack, had revealed to him that he’d been living a rather eventful life in the years now lost to him. He just hopes that he’ll eventually remember.

He has to, right? It can’t all be lost for the rest of his days, right? He has to remember eventually. Everyone had said he didn’t hit his head and the numerous test at the hospital hadn’t been able to explain it and… there is something everyone is hiding from him.

He wouldn’t even know if they were all lying to him.

Make me write?

I already posted into the comm, but as this is the last completely feral one, how could I not jump in?

My wips this week are:

Snippet from stsapphicbb2024:

It felt like they were waiting, but for what, Chrissy couldn’t have said.

Until there was a small meow.   

“Did you hear that?” Chrissy had to ask. She knew there were things she heard but Robin and Steve didn’t, she had spooked them both a few times in the first few days, that she remembered, at least. But this time she was pretty sure she’d heard what she’d heard.

“A meow? Yeah. Where is it?”

WIP Wednesday Game

PLEASE READ:

This is the last completely feral WIP Wednesday Game. We now have a community to play in, where folks can post their weekly games (or post separately and reblog into the community). Although I will continue to make this post at least through the end of July, I will no longer be pinging folks, you can join the community and will receive notifications there. Please read the rules before posting, as they’re SLIGHTLY different to work within a community.

As of today, member join requests still have not been coded into communities, so membership is by invite only. Please send me an ASK if you want to join- DO NOT REPLY TO THIS. I may or may not see a reply/mention/etc, or I may see it and forget it exists 5 seconds later. Asks I will see, and only delete once I have sent the invite, so your request will not be lost.

-------

It’s WIP Wednesday, time for a little accountability, sharing your work, and getting a kick in the pants.

Here’s how it works:

In a reblog of this post (so people can find you in the notes) or new thread (w/ rules attached) if you want to play on your own, post up to five (5) filenames of your WIPs; not titles, file names.

Post a snippet from one of them. Snippet must be words you wrote in the last 7 days. We’re posting progress here. If you haven’t made any, go make some and come back to play!

After you’ve posted, people can send you an ask with one of your file names. You must then write 3 sentences in that file. If the filename is one you can't share from (for example, an event or gift fic), write 3 sentences on it anyway, and then 3 more on another to share.

That’s it! You can invite others to join in, or just post. I’ll be searching the reblogs to find people to send asks to!

If you’re reading this, you’re invited!

If you see someone posting a WIP Wednesday Game snippet, send them an ask! Make them write.

Requested/Friend event mentions under the cut! Reminder that this is the last ping week!

Getting To Know You (Again)

It's never too late to make me work!!! ;)

Thank you for your ask!

This are your three sentences!

For a moment Eddie freezes, and Steve's fear that he fucked up abysmally threatens to swallow him whole, but the next moment Eddie is turning Steve toward himself, kissing him deep and hard, pushing his tongue in Steve’s mouth like he was his right, licking and sucking, sharing spit and air, their bodies so pressed one against the other that Steve can’t tell where his limbs end and where Eddie’s begin. For a few blissful moments, they are one thing. The two sides of the same apple finally reunited.

WIP WEDNESDAY 17/7/2024

I almost didn't do wip wed this week, but WHY NOT? I do have two other bangs I need to write for.

It’s WIP Wednesday, time for a little accountability, sharing your work, and getting a kick in the pants.

Here’s how it works:

In a reblog (or new post w/ rules attached), post up to five (5) filenames of your WIPs; not titles, file names.

Post a snippet from one of them. Snippet must be words you wrote in the last 7 days. We’re posting progress here. If you haven’t made any, go make some and come back to post!

NSFW snippet from mer!steve:

The longer Eddie stares, the nervous Steve becomes, the more intense his squirming.

Finally, he snaps, letting his mean girl out, a little bit, as a treat.

“Well? Are you going to do something, or just stare at it?”

“Give a man a moment to bask!”

A lightbulb went on in Steve’s head.

“You’ve never ---”

“No, I’ve never.”

“Oh.”

“Oh.”

Eddie continued staring.

“You don’t have to,” Steve said. He was getting a bit uncomfortable.

WIP WEEKEND

Snippet (under cut)from stsapphicbb2024:

Maybe it was a little shocking, but it was her breaking away from the old her, the image that had controlled her life for so long. She had always secretly envied the so-called outcasts in school, hidden her admiration of punks and goths in magazines. Part of that was because it was rebellion agains her mother, of being something completly different and removed from what she was supposed to be, part her own wants and desires.

She wanted to rebel, be loud and shout her aliveness, her survival, her strenght. She may not have escaped Vecna, but she had saved herself, dug her way out, even if she didn’t know how, why or from where the spark for it had come.

”What color?”

Robin asked.

”Pink, right?” Steve asked, sounding a little sad even as he smiled. She didn’t know how she knew, but she felt like his smile was forced.

WIP Weekend

I wasn't officially tagged by anyone this week, but I have got to get some work done this weekend so I'm jumping in!

The Rules:

In a reblog (or a new post w/ rules attached) post up to five (5) file names of your wips. Not titles, file names.

Post a snippet from one of them. Snippet must be words you wrote in the last 7 days. We’re posting progress here. If you haven’t made any, go make some and come back to post!

After you’ve posted, people can send you an ask with one of your file names. You must then write 3 sentences in that file. If the filename is one you can’t share from (for example, an event fic), write 3 sentences on it anyway, and then 3 more on another to share.

That’s it! You can invite others to join in, or just post. If you tag me in your post, I will send you an ask request!

The WIP:

Labyrinth AU (Steddie Bang)

And that's it, just the one it's the illusion of choice. Snippet and a tag list below the cut

She mutters something into the feathered crown of the bird that isn’t his. Something that sounds like it ends in ‘so fucking stupid’ but deciphering the what becomes a lot less important when she asks, “Do you want to see where he’ll be recuperating?”

“Yeah! Can I?” his fingers tap the desk in a rhythm he can’t place, nervous energy expending out of himself and into this weird liminal space. Dart had been a stray and Ma had saved Mews from the Walmart parking lot; they'd never adopted anything that hadn’t made its way to them first. He is his own third example that proves the Munson way.

Maybe all animal shelters were like this. Large empty lobbies with big desks that block off access to their single mysterious doors. Buildings that weren’t concerned with things like electricity bills, the air on high enough that it’s got every hair on Eddie’s body currently standing on end: goosebumps down his arms, the hair at the back of his neck is on end.

“Great,” she smiles. There’s something off putting about it, like the mouth that she’s got doesn’t fit right on her face. A grin cut out of a magazine and pasted on a different picture.

No pressure tags: @cauldronoflove, @augustjustice, @eriquin, @aparticularbandit, @lingeringmirth, @sevenmerrymagpies, @fuctacles, @adhdavinci + anyone else who is looking for an excuse to be productive

Ten Sentence Thursday

As I find myself with an unexpected lull in my workday and also bc I need motivation to write my st sapphic bee, I'm doing Ten Sentence Thursday. Same principle as wip Wednesday, but I'll be sharing TEN SENTENCES per ask. You can send in several.

My wips for this madness:

Late in the day, but steddie bb for your wip Wednesday!

Never too late in the day!

They look painful, with the way they stretch with his big bump. It’s likely they are actually painful, but he’s just been chalking it all up to normal pregnancy aches. With the amnesia he doesn’t know which is which.

[lingeringmirth]

Some steddiebb for your wip weekend!

He swallows back his tears. They haven’t even been dating for that --- but no, that’s not true. They haven’t even been dating for years, and he can’t even remember it, still, he feels a strong connection to her.

[medusapelagia]

Getting to know you (again) for WIP Whenever please!

Sorry it took forever!

But this are your 3 sentences!

Steve nods, taking his husband's hand and playing with the golden band on his finger. He hates that he can't remember the moment he put the ring on his husband's finger. That moment, the one that allegedly was the best day of his life, is gone. Forever.

Make me write

Snippet from steddieBB2024:

Where am I?

Steve struggles up, driven by a sudden sense of urgency, to get up, to be moving, to help. He gasps and scrunches his eyes shut as pain lances through his skull at the movement, at the too-bright lights.

‘Hey, whoa, easy, let the IV be where it is, yea?’

There are hands on him, halting his movements, his body feels wrong, somehow, too heavy, misaligned. There’s a pain shooting along his right arm, making him gasp. Something tugs in his left hand, stings.

Who?
