the truth the public doesn’t want you knowing is that being loved by suguru is just like having a big codependent dog hovering over you at all times

[fakesorbet]

they had very contrasting parents and yet it didn’t change anything

[windydrawallday]

Every Rose Has Its Thorn

Just like every night has its dawn Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song

[witchofthemidlands]

Drifter/Perseus in Icarus Rock-Opera for @actual-bill-potts

Don’t look for the person in the crowd. You’ll no longer find anyone. People judge others by their own merit While they condemn anyone who’s not like them. And having taken wing like a desperate yell Over the desert of bowed heads, You’ll suddenly realize — you’re an old man. This torn net is your only yield. Your sea is nothing but a sea of sand Out of shattered hourglass. Your truth is nothing but longing For words’ habitual meaning.

wip tag game

tagged by @two-hands-toward-the-sun. i have...more wips than i remember at any given time, and i just peck at whichever one when the spirit moves me (usually when i'm procrastinating actual work). currently there's eight active in the rotation, with another handful that are more conceptual/bits and pieces i want to come back to later.

Sandman

Lucienne takes the Corinthian for walkies: this is in response to a Valentines day prompt @two-hands-toward-the-sun sent me, "going on a platonic date and being mistaken for a couple." Dream weaponized his sad wet eyes at Luce to make her take some PTO and also provide some enrichment for his recreated masterpiece. they go to the MOMAT

As though attuned to her thoughts, the Corinthian hangs back at a respectable distance—not out of sight, but perhaps out of mind, if she wished. When Lucienne frowns at him, trying to discern whether this is some kind of trick, he makes a show of fiddling with the audio guide, head turned away as he hooks the piece over his ear.

does your husband know the way the sunlight gleams on your wedding ring: Corinthian/Calliope fic in the period between Orpheus and Calliope & Dream's divorce. once again, a woman takes Coco out for her idea of a good time and proves literally anyone else would be a better owner for the Corinthian than Dream.

He means to retreat. He doesn’t think she’s noticed him, and he wouldn’t impose on her privacy. Calliope was always nice to him. But grief smells like weakness, and a Muse’s grief smells different from that of the humans he stalks in dreams, wearing the faces of their long-departed. His mouths water at the scent, unfamiliar but delectable. For a fleeting moment, he wonders what her eyes might taste like, what he’d see if he took them in his own.

gay coworkers: words are HAPPENING in the next installment!

“Technically—" “C’mon, a memory wipe is hardly better—" “I’m not defending his actions, I’m simply pointing out—" “Stop talking about me like I’m not here,” the Corinthian snaps. Matthew and Lucienne exchange guilty glances. “You could at least wait until you’re back at the palace. Doing it in my house, that’s just fucking rude.”

la guard dog literal: Morpheus recreated the Corinthian as a (sort of, semi-eldritch) dog because surely that will fix his behavioral issues. Daniel still rehomes him with Rose Walker.

Jed twists around in his seat. The Corinthian snuffles obligingly at the hand he offers, gives the fingertips a quick swipe with his tongue. Jed’s face splits into a smile. That smile makes something warm unfurl in the Corinthian’s belly, prompts him to worm closer with a thready whimper. No threat. Which is maybe the biggest lie he’s ever told and he didn’t even speak it in human words, but in the moment he desperately wants Jed to believe it, and not just so he can sink his teeth into that vulnerable neck still soft with baby fat.

what if we made those daddy issues literal: semi-period accurate 1920s fic where the Corinthian is Dream's troublesome ward and Matthew is the tutor Dream hires to bring him in line. is this because i'm obsessed with Assad Zaman's outfits in hotel portofino? yes.

“Dream’s not my father.” “I thought—" “He’s my guardian. Keeper. Master. Whatever.” “He—" “Of course he’s benevolent. Can afford to be, I suppose. So long as I perform well.” “Does he—?” “Not how you’re thinking.” Cori barks a short, humorless laugh. “That wouldn’t be conducive to his long-term plans, would it? Breaking his toy before it can be of any real use.” “That’s—" “Good? Yeah. Sure.” Something shutters in his expression. “After all, what would become of this poor orphan child without some generous benefactor to mold him into a productive member of society? Why, then he might just be a scoundrel or, worse—an inconvenient corpse rotting in the road.” “I—" “Well. No use speculating, right?” He flashes a grin that makes Matt think of a dog baring its teeth. “I’ll see you after lunch.” Matt, dumbfounded, watches him walk away.

Logan/X-men

rehome that animal: sequel to the dog crate fic

Mendez isn’t sure what he expected to find in the Wolverine’s hideout. It certainly wasn’t this. This being his former boss, presumed dead after A-T’s last (as in latest, as in final) attempt to retcon its X-23 project several months ago. Mendez didn’t recognize him at first, but he thinks he’d be forgiven for the slight: the Donald Pierce before him looks a lot different from the Reaver commander who’d swanned around in a leather duster and tinted sunglasses, barking orders. Now he’s mostly naked and washed-out looking like maybe he hasn’t seen much sun. His once carefully groomed beard has been shaved to expose sharp cheekbones and a delicate chin. All his muscle and fat is gone, so the jut of his ribs and spine and pelvis show with every small twitch. There’s a lot of twitching, like his body can’t decide whether to prepare for fight or flight.

horse is a one-trick pony and the trick is Werewolves: if you didn't foresee me turning the Reavers into a (literal) wolf pack...well, that's on you at this point.

The pack leader is keeping an eye on him. Not quite staring: casual flickers of his attention between Donald and whatever is happening on the laptop. Mendez’s eyes shine almost green in the bluish screen light. His face looks sharper. His lip twitches and shows the barest glimpse of fang.

...tagging @evenmyhivemindisempty, @cosmictapestry, @aisalynn, @crimeronan, and @stellerssong. no pressure, i just like seeing what people are working on.

my mom's a library director and for some reason her library received their copy of the new lorne michaels biography before it's even available in stores so of course as soon as she brought it home i flipped to the index then read any paragraph mentioning the kids in the hall

been having a hard time the last few days remembering sometimes why the 23 year old and i aren't talking etc and then we had our first conversation in a week and i was like oh yeah. because you don't like me and you lied to me for years about that very fundamental fact and i can't trust anything you say now, and shouldn't have trusted you then. he told me today that he was really ashamed of what he did to me and i just. like i have no idea if that's true. i don't know if he even sees me as a person, really. i doubt i'll ever know.

i just spent so long liking him that it's hard to make sense of how i feel now. i told him i think we needed to stop treating it like a breakup because it doesn't help me, having this huge emotional thing to navigate at a job i'm already tired of, in an office where i am both constantly reminded him and also constantly see him, at a time when everything else is already huge and stressful. and i think i can be perfectly polite, 95% of the time, and i still have the instinct to want to share all of these random things with him - bikes i saw, the sunrise, and so on. we could be perfectly casually friendly, except that i just keep hitting this wall of remembering that he lied to me, and treated me objectively very poorly, and the kindest thing he could say about me last week was that he "didn't dislike me." i feel like i had a future evaporate in a flash, but also a past, because it's impossible to know now how much of anything he meant, and how much he was honest about at any time. and i am trying to keep in mind the things that were good about our relationship, because i did genuinely learn a lot and benefit from having someone to be close to, but i have no idea when these lessons will ever come in handy because the idea of being open and vulnerable with anyone else ever again when they could do the same thing is like. just sounds like such a waste of time. i just feel so stupid for trusting him again, even though i believe he did genuinely try to change. like, he did in fact change, and i helped him change, it's just that none of that change led to him being any kinder or more honest with me. he just spent a year pretending that it did. and i don't understand why.

Y’all why the heck do I write things that hurt my own heart

[tategaminu]

She goes from thinking of the Silvergroove to thinking about Callum, then trying not to think about him at all because it hurts, just like Callum tries not thinking about her in his own short.

She could have described the castle as anything but said warm, because Callum was there and therefore that place became her home. The losers missed each other so much, please everyone leave tumblr right now I need to be alone.

[apocalypticdemon]

hmm. spiraling. fun.

god i wish trans healthcare was just like. a fuckin casual thing. i wish i could go to my doc and be like ‘hey this is the result i want: what hormones & methods would be best to achieve it’ or even just like. ‘hey i wanna try this’. i wish that level of comfort on the topic and respect for bodily autonomy was just a thing instead of having to go so far in depth into diagnosis and full social transition and all that just to get Proper Medical Advice And Treatment
