#wow they're so normal that's awesome

[imdonewiththisblogsblog]

(Hello! Here’s some Catnap x Dogday’s incorrect quotes!)

Catnap: I’ve been dropping them the most insanely obvious hints for like a year now. No response.

Dogday: Wow. They sound stupid.

Catnap: But they’re not. They’re really smart actually. Just dense.

Dogday: Maybe you need to be more obvious? Like, I don’t know… “Hey! I love you!”

Catnap: I guess you’re right. Hey Dogday, I love you.

Dogday: See! Just say that!

Catnap: Holy f---ing s---.

Dogday: If that flies over their head then, sorry Catnap, but they're too dumb for you.

Catnap: Dogday.

Catnap: Look at me straight in the eyes and tell me the truth, Dogday!

Dogday: You can’t expect me to look into your eyes and be straight.

Dogday, sweating: Catnap, there’s something I need to ask you-

Catnap: Finally! You’re proposing!

Dogday: How’d you know?

Catnap: Dogday, you’ve dropped the ring five times during dinner.

Catnap: I even picked it up once.

Catnap: Dogday and I are no longer dating.

Dogday: Catnap, that’s a horrible way of telling people we’re married.

Dogday: So... what would you do if you were in bed with me?

Catnap: Depends. Is your bed comfortable?

Dogday: Yes.

Catnap: I'd sleep.

Dogday: Catnap, you love me, right?

Catnap: Normally I’d say yes without hesitation, but I feel like this is going somewhere I won’t like.

Dogday: I think I'm falling for you.

Catnap: Then get up.

Dogday: Are you ready to commit?

Catnap: Like, a crime or a relationship?

Dogday: I am so cool. I am an absolute Chad. I am the epitome of coolness and awesomeness—

Catnap: Hi.

Dogday: *melts down in a flustered heap of softness*

are.you.an.angel..

I've been looking for AleNoah as dads my entire life man!!! You're like.. sent from above!!

..

wait how did they get MK then..

did Noah and Emma have MK then divorce, and then Noah gained custody..or is she just adopted..

I don't know if you mind me doing this but like,

I like to imagine :3.. that Aleheather broke up and Nemma actually got married but divorced so then MK is just like..there. Then boom Noah and Alejandro meet again and they're like "btw did you know in World Tour I loved you" "fr!? Me.me too!" "do you wanna get married" "yea!!!!"

yea. (I may have gotten Raj into the mix..bleh.)

Wow this is incredibly long sorry about that drink water and have a lovely day!!!!!

-⏰

OKAY I ACCIDENTALLY MAY IR MAY HAVE NOT MADE A CHART THAT EXPLAINS THE AU THANKS TO THIS ASK (IN MY EYES) !!

i personally dont like the idea of the women in the respective relationships abandoning the men to let them be gay w each other, esp since so many people that write similar things end up making emma just straight up abandon the family cause of stress. its way too convinient yknow, jst my opinion, and it makes emma look bad (which shes way too awesome) i think she would be very close w the mudaliar-burromuerto family but as a close friend/honorary aunt sorta way.

but your idea of the au is cool! i like it.

this is kinda of like a long answer to your question being like. how did they have mk.....

okay so.

how did they end up together? i inspired myself from a fic that is literally just noah being alejandro's only visitor in the hospital post-WT. they become friendly and, since the burromuerto family sees alejandro as an embarrassment for being too vulnerable and letting himself lose the million dollars in front of many people, leaving him being kicked out, they eventually end up moving together! its kind of a slowburn college romance if im being honest. and once theyre juniors/seniors in college, they end up getting together.

so. hooow do they adopt mk? since its from birth? wouldnt they be super young? EXACTLY

theyre young parents due to alejandro being pressured from his side of the family to at least get a child if he's going to keep being a failure. this hurts ale deeply and he genuinely starts to panic, thinking he should raise a kid as soon as possible. he manages to convince noah that its true baby fever and that they'll be wonderful parents, even though normally "ideal" parents marry and then have children.

they search for a while and eventually come across someone who was thinking of adoption whilst pregnant, and the three of them worked very hard to make it possible. so in 2007, MK is born, and adopted into the mudaliar-burromuerto family. (i do not know SHIT about adoption so i wont make much detail about it)

of course, not being married and having a child was also critizised, so they quickly married around a year or two later. (it took a while to cut the burromuerto family out of his life, but back then ale was very young and very easily manipulated by his family)

so, around 6 years later, they adopt another kid, which was already a year old, but who really didnt have a name. he was dropped off at an orphanage when he was around 6 months old, but he didnt seem to be registrated anywhere. ale n noah, curious, took on the role to foster care this kid and came up w a name for him, which alejandro chose, nicolás. they adopted him soon after

so yeah full story!!! may be susceptible to change!! wahoo!!

Love that fic, but having trouble expressing that love in a comment? Worried that you're leaving the same comments over and over?

Here are 40 comment ideas!

Keyboard Smash. Bonus points for a mix of uppercase and lowercase. End with a brief compliment: "Love it!" "So good!" "Amazing!" "This is my everything!"

Emoji string. Go as long as you feel appropriate. Throw in some 🔥 for good measure.

Quote a phrase, sentence, or passage that resonated with you, and explain why. "I love this description." "This is such beautiful language." "This metaphor is so brilliant." "This is the perfect way to describe [character/thing]."

Ask the author what inspired them to write such an incredible story. (Most authors dream of these types of comments.)

Share how the fic made you feel as you read it. Were you scared for a character? Were you cheering on your favorite? Did that smut make you all hot and bothered?

Thank the author. Bonus if you can thank them for something specific: Sharing this amazing work, introducing this awesome character, creating this cool AU, etc.

Identify your favorite character in the fic, and explain why they're your favorite.

Any indication that you're so in love with a work you literally want to eat it. My personal favorite that I've received is "I want to shove this in my mouth like an entire oreo," but "I want to print this out and stuff it in my face" and "This fic is like an amazing five-course meal, every bite is delicious!" are also winners.

For a multi-chapter fic, any version of "Wow, this keeps getting better and better!" This can really help keep an author motivated, especially if they've been focused on one longfic for a while. Longfics tend to have diminishing engagement over time, so commenting on later chapters is especially meaningful.

Tell the author that something in their fic is your "emotional support [thing]." Bob is my emotional support character, this is my emotional support fic, etc.

Tag it as if it were a social post, with all the hashtags it makes you think of. #myfavoritefic #incrediblewriting #truelove

Did you do something maybe a little dumb while reading the fic? Stay up all night reading? Nearly walk into a wall because you were reading while walking? Show up late to class because you couldn't put it down? Share your dumb thing!

Make predictions on what you think will happen next, and explain why. End your comment with something along the lines of "I can't wait to find out if I'm right or wrong!" Note: Be sure to phrase your comment as to what you predict will happen, not what you think SHOULD happen.

Did the fic make you discover a new side or facet to a character? Talk about that. "I never noticed how [trait] [character] is until I read your work!" Example: "I never noticed how creative Eric was until you brought it out in this fic, but it's absolutely true!"

Have you re-read a work (especially multiple times)? "I'm re-reading this for the third time because I love it so much."

"This is my second kudos!" Repeat as many times as you want. Third, fourth, fortieth, it's all good.

Are you a new subscriber? "Loved this so much that I subscribed!"

Are you an existing subscriber? "Every time I see an update in my inbox, I get so excited and rush to read it!"

Is there an Original Character (OC) in the fic? Ask about the OC! Ask what inspired the author to create the OC. Ask for more information about the OC's background. Ask if the OC is based on any particular character or idea. Ask how they came up with the name, and if it has any special meaning. Seriously, just ask the author about their original creation.

Tell the author how attached you're growing to their story or their characters.

"It was so [emotion] when [character] did [thing]." For example, "It was so scary when Eddie charged off on his own, I was so worried for his safety!"

Having a tough time in the real world? Let the author know if their fic or characters are a much-needed bright spot in your day.

Is the fic something you normally don't read? "Normally I'm not into [thing], but this fic is so good it's changed my mind!"

Did the author portray a complex topic well, with understanding and nuance? For example: surviving domestic abuse, coming out in a non-supportive environment, dealing with trauma, etc. Tell the author! "I can really tell you did your research. You handled [topic] so well!"

Can you personally relate to a scenario or a character in the fic? Did it touch you on a personal level? Say so!

Is it an older story? COMMENT ON THE OLDER STORY! Tell the author that it still has meaning and relevance, and that readers are still enjoying it today.

Does the fic present a pairing (or relationship) you never considered or never liked before, but now you adore? "This fic has made [pairing] my new favorite ship!" or "I was never really into [relationship] before, but this fic is so well done, I've fallen in love with them!"

A string of heart emojis (or the simple <3 ). As many as you feel appropriate. (One is appropriate. So is one hundred. You decide!) Make a rainbow if you want! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Did the fic make you look at the source material in a new way? Share. "I never noticed [thing] about [source material], but your writing really brought it out!"

Screaming about the pain and agony you're in, especially on whump, hurt/comfort, hurt/no comfort, and similar fics. Some authors are sadists. Let them know you're suffering (in that "oh hell it's so good it hurts" kind of way).

For chapters that end on a cliffhanger: Any screaming about how much the suspense is killing you and you can't wait for the next chapter. (Just remember not to demand the next chapter. "I'm so excited for the next chapter" = good / "You have to update right now or else" = bad.)

Is the fic now part of your official headcanon, right along with the source material? "From now own, this is as official canon to me as the original [book/show/movie]!"

Is the fic's title obvious, or is it a little mysterious? Ask if there's a secret meaning behind the title, or how the author decided on the title.

Ask the author if they have a favorite character, scene, chapter, etc. Depending on the fandom, this can be very specific (favorite weapon, attack, transformation, vehicle, horse, monster, etc.).

Is it smut? Did it make you hot? Trust me, smut authors want to know.

"This [chapter/fic] was so good, I feel like I need a smoke after it."

Is there a mystery that's absolutely boggling your brain? Share your theories! (YES: "Oh, what if Prince Smidgeon is actually killer?"). Just remember to never cross the line into telling the author what to do (NO: "You should make it so Prince Smidgeon is the killer.")

"I wish I could give you a kudos for each word in this [fic/chapter], it's just that good!"

Do you like making art? Ask the author if you can make fanart of their fic!

IF, and ONLY IF, the author has very clearly requested concrit (constructive criticism), then role up your sleeves and get to work putting together truly helpful, supportive criticism. Get started with this guide here.

Do you have other suggestions for this list?

Reblog with your favorite comments to give or receive!

(Tumblr insists on re-starting the list at 1 after the cut and I have no idea how to fix it??? It really is 40, I promise.)

The projections: Awesome!

The Map: Fantastic!

The Minis: Incredible!

Starting with a battle like Starstruck: So much fun!

Introducing a bunch of NPCs and Pretending We Know and Love Them: INSPIRED!

Episode One was so fucking cool. Adaine is wizarding it up all over. Fabian is doing his normal bullshit plus all the Ecaf shit is hilarious. Kristen becoming a Gym Bro and ghosting her god is good shit. Riz shooting and driving and making all kinds of checks—Wow! Fig doing big damage and making deals with devil! Gorgug is seemingly the most grounded of them now. The rest are unhinged.

Brennan is bringing his A-Game. Really impressed with this battle and all the mechanics and shit going on. This is Murph-level design. (Which is like the highest compliment I can give because I truly think Murph is the best encounter designer in the actual play realm.)

Also, I love that as Ally continued their journey on T and explores elements of masculinity, their and Murph's dynamic has grown and they're like super broey together. Ally and Murph's whole thing may be one of my favourite cast dynamics.

I loved this episode! The Bad Kids are SO fucking BACK.

*bust in the door with Sinor Chonker in my right arm and a cup of cold brew coffee with churro creamer in my left hand*

Okay hear me out on this!!

Having Jeb and Oct with us is cool and talking to our favorite night guard through the mirror is an extra, but what if we could able to talk with the other crew with said mirror and talking to hysterical figure and introduce them to our friends and having to translate with some of them while in conversation as if it's a normal Tuesday

Like Huns being the awesome warlord be bit protective over mc and looking at Sebek and in translation if he did anything that we didn't like hell glady fight him

Or our favorite Pharaoh man ( who I have a childhood crush like come-on ) happily talk to us and seeing our new friends went to king mode on some because he wanted mc to feel safe and not get in to trouble with them

Talking with historical figures and talking about what they did in their time out is the open be both comedic and to the tw guys be horrified on some stuff out in the open ( like if a WW2 soldier making a joke about ww2 related stuff ) or give really organized military stuff to help mc with stuff like school work or their work around the school

I don't blame you for the crush on Ahk, Rami Malek is so fjwjfjejfj-

- BUT YEAH, TONS OF OTHER PEOPLE DEFINETLY USE THE MIRROR TO TALK TOO, not just Larry and Nicky but Teddy and Sacagewa like to make sure you're okay.

- I like to think some of the Twst Boys know what Attila is saying as he threatens them to protect you but like, others just think he's super cool looking and you try to soften his translation so they aren't so violent.

- BUT ALSO, ATTILA AND HIS HUNS LOVE MAGIC SO THE BOYS KINDA WIN THEM OVER EASILY but don't get me wrong, they're still very worried for you.

- You can also use them to teach the guys about history from your world. Like, you're telling them about cavemen and showing them and the cave guys are just super hyped to see you until they see that Ace has a hand on your shoulder and being the big brother figures they are, they just freak out and Larry is all: "How about we move onto Teddy next!?"

- I like to think that Teddy would definetly give Leona a pep talk or something. Like, Teddy having to deal with not being the real Theodore Roosevelt kind fits with Leona not being the crown prince and stuff and while their situations aren't the same, Teddy giving Leona some enlightenment.

- ROOK ENJOYS MOMENTS TO MEET ALL YOUR NEW FRIENDS, SO HE CAN SEE ALL THE BEAUTY. He 100% would be super flattering to Sacagewa and Ahkmenrah and how they must've been the pinnacle of beauty at their time and Sacagewa just being polite and Ahk being super awkward but happy to be there. ALSO, SACAGEWA AND ROOK EXCHANGING HUNTING AND TRACKING TIPS AND YOU'RE JUST THERE LIKE: "PLEASE DON'T-"

- They are exposed to more darker parts of your history and while not everything is sunshine and rainbows, when they hear about the wars and the atrocities, you just tell your dad to maybe move the mirror but they're also just so fascinated by how people from your world may not have magic but they definetly have the wits to create some serious fire power. Like, they couldn't fathom how wars without magic would be like and now they know and it definetly gives them a new look on your world.

- ALL OF THE EXHIBITS MISS YOU THOUGH. Dexter stealing the mirror from Larry so he can have you all to himself and throwing a tantrum when another of the Twst guys try to look at him. He seems to like Floyd though which is really concerning.

- You even show them things that you might have in common with their world. Such as European history, Persian history, and African history and it really sticks out to some students who are there like: "Wow, those buildings look similar to the ones we have here!"

- All of the exhibits definetly all try to tell you goodnight before morning, scold Jed and Octavius if they gave you any trouble and you tell them goodnight and watch from the mirror as the sun rises and they all go still. You miss them a lot and while it's fun to introduce the guys to your world, it only makes you ache for it more.

here's an assortment of guys, some SNAP counterparts to AutoAca characters by @stonecrusherproductions, for part of an art trade

this isn't Hot Shot's first time off Caminus. he's gone on a few trips to Velocitron to see the races and even stopped by Devisiun once to visit family, but he's never been to Cybertron before! he's more interested in exploring the streets, hanging out with friends like Lightbright, or snacking on JaAm than completing homework, but he can usually speed through it at the last second. the JAAT is the perfect school in his mind, giving him extracurricular opportunities like sports so he can burn off some of his high energy. it's certainly a relief to his roommates Aileron, Stardrive, Quickstrike, and Maxima when he's no longer bouncing off the walls!

Lightbright is so excited, she's never left Caminus before, and oh isn't Cybertron lovely? what a wonderful school she gets to attend! and what delightful people she's gotten to befriend, like Sparkstalker! most of her roommates are lovely, but even she gets irritated by Sentinel sometimes. she's also fascinated by the heroes running around, and sometimes she and Hot Shot will procrastinate their work just to watch the supernatural drama unfolding. the only thing she's disappointed by is the lack of easy access to bodies of water, as she grew up near one of Caminus's seas and often took a relaxing swim in her submersible hovercraft alt mode

it's only a matter of time before Glyph tries camping out in the JAAT library again, despite how often Alpha Trion has chased her off before. her home in Polyhex never had this much information freely available to someone like her! when she first passed the exams, she agonized over whether she should attend the JAAT or elect to take part in an exchange program to a colony planet like her friends Lancer and Greenlight, but she's glad of her decision now. there's so much to learn here! it's easier to stick with data than meet new people thanks to her shyness around strangers. she'll even avoid her roommates Quickslinger, Sunder, Vortex, and Sceptre, but she thinks she can count fellow student Tap-Out as a friend now, probably?

Side Burn doesn't even remember taking the exams, but somebody told him he passed, so here he is! and wow, what a cool Academy this place is! it gets him a front row seat to awesome hero beatdowns and brawls, what's not to love? his grades have been, uh, bad, but that's fine, the counselor says he probably has some mental thing that makes it hard to focus, so it can't be his fault. he's too busy ogling all his gorgeous scarlet classmates to care about whatever the teachers are saying, no matter the fact they're offput by his juvenile antics and sometimes the odd look of his prosthetic left optic. while coming all the way from the Overdrive Compact in Rodion might be a bit disconcerting to most, to him it's just another place to rise and grind

(Lightbright has a tail but she's not a beastformer! tails are somewhat normal for mecha like four arms or a centaur body, i just realized i've forgotten to give them to anybody except beastformers... so uh. i'll try to remember in the future oops)

[loverlylight]

Okay, that was just... wow. Either tied or surpassed MCR Oakland as the best night of my life. I'll post later since I didn't get much sleep and need to leave for the airport soon (I did have enough time to sleep, my body just refused), but in the mean time I've been making voice recordings to summarize the events and it's already half an hour long and I haven't even gotten to sitting down for the show yet. I'm assuming I won't go into detail about stuff until Monday since I have a feeling I'll still need a bit to recover, but yeah, it was amazing!

I have one more bit to share before I leave, but first I just want to mention their stage manager Tammy because oh my god she's just so amiable and great to talk with?

Anyway, the final bit I wanted to share before I head off is that I normally am very much "I don't want to bother people they're probably busy" but I made friends with this mother and daughter (who were also both awesome and amazing people) and the mother was not afraid to approach people so somehow I got pictures with Joe Walker, Brian Rosenthal, and Curt Mega? (I also got a pic with all the bros later which I don't have yet, but that was during the Kickstarter reward tier thing which I'll talk about later. Also Joey Richter hugged me?) Anyway pictures, unfortunately they also have MY face in them but I guess that's a risk you have to take when you get your picture taken with someone. Also me in front of the marquee.

[a-sad-writer]

AU in which Ed is an egyptologist and adventurer with barely any self-preservation instinct and Roy is a mythological/supernatural guardian spirit accidently being awoken by Ed discouvering and exploring a Pharao grave or something like that

Spirits: "Should we... Should we kill them?"

Roy: "I Don't think so. I mean, they're just looking at the stuff. We're supposed to kill thieves, so... How about we just observe them?"

Ed: "Oh, wow, look at that guy! He's wearing original clothes from [insert era] in egypt. And look at his abs and biceps. Omg, He's awesome!"

Al: "How about you look at his sharp swords and his lion-like fangs and claws?!?!"

Ed: "Oh, yes, those are sexy too."

Al: "Excuse me?!"

Ed: "Um, I said I would like to have a totally normal scientific look at his historical swords too."

[icantthinkyandere]

Hello! I hope that you have are having an awesome day! Can i request yandere gudao, Gudako and Mash x Servant!Reader (Who is kinda like Zhongli from genshin impact in where each ascension reveals their divine nature and also the reader shares similar power sets. Not only that the reader has been with them since the beggining acting not just as a loyal servant but also a mentor and a support figure for them)

This is going to lean more into them being platonic and less romantic, I hope that's okay!

I kinda wish I could say that my time has been awesome, but after I finished my summer semester, my zombie air-conditioner told me to die on the hottest days of August. It's better now, though!

{Gudao, Gudako, and Mashu}

Fuyuki was a very stressful and hard time for all of them. There's a good bit of time between Fuyuki and Orleans because there's a lot of readjusting that has to be done now that there are only two mages, they're not even good ones, and Olga has passed. They are all very stressed and very depressed.

Lucky one of the servants that Chaldea happened to summon a servant who more than capable of being their to support them in their time of need!

Their first [five star] high ranking support Caster! However, Da Vinci and Romani aren't sure if it's actually the person they were trying to summon. They're dressed in nice enough clothes, very polite, and overall just shockingly normal. They know servants will be different depending on the class as well as the point in time they're taken from. But with all of Da Vinci's research, she's never heard of them acting like this.

Despite their unexpected personality and being new to Chaldea, they are quick to start their mentor roles with both their new masters and Mashu.

Starting when they lend an ear to listen to Gudao and Gudako's troubles. They are nervous to express how overwhelmed you are with being the only two masters left out of dozens of them. Plus, being traumatized by the sudden explosion, the bodies, thinking both they and Mashu would also die alongside them.

But they are nothing but kind and supportive. They don't sugar-coat it and lie to them, the up coming journey will be hard. They will be with them every step of the way and help them to become better mages. Gudao and Gudako couldn't be more relieved to finally have that off their chest.

Gudao and Gudako know that everyone is doing their best to get the current situation at least passable so they can do the Singularities and not let everyone die. But wow. Did it feel good for someone, anyone, to just sit down with them and be there for them.

Mashu is sort of in a similar place. Now, being a Shielder class, she isn't too sure how to be one due to the lack of information they have on them. They may not be a Shielder, but the new servant is a defense support servant. They can't help her in the 100% way she needs. They can still help her train and improve her skills.

She just jumps into training. Mashu just wants to be a good servant and protect her senpais and Chaldea. Which was a mistake. Her new teacher can immediately tell something is wrong and makes her stop. She can't be a good protector or have her training go anywhere with how she's feeling.

They sit her down with some tea and, like with the Gudas, talk about what's wrong. It's not just to optimize a training schedule, but because they care about master and don't want to see her in emotional pain. It goes similar to Gudas, if not more hesitate than them, having a different background. They're so patient with her and allow her to take her time, saying that she doesn't even have to admit her feelings fully or even say them at all. They just want her to know they are here for her.

It does make her emotional. So many heavy unexpected things have happened, and she might not express her feelings now or possibly later, but the feelings of support mean a lot to her.

As their time with Chaldea continues, they become more comfortable, they choose to acsend into their second ascension and stay in it. It's a lot more what was expected when they were first summoned. There is much more proper and traditional type of outfit. It's flowly and shows off the black and yellow patterns they hide under their sleeves.

With more and more servants that join Chaldea, they thought the masters and Mashu would branch off into hanging out with other servants. Especially the more lively ones, reading, drinking tea and training can only be so fun. But, they don't. Even Mashu, who use to be curious about their backgrounds. The only time they actually do is when suggested to. Gudas and Mashu seem to have fun, but they feel like it's only to make them happy...

The three of them like the other servants, and like Da Vinci and Romani. But like the servants' skills, they are a pillar that has kept them from Fuyuki to Camelot. They really don't know what this journey would have been like without them in it.

Their journey together seems to be ending very soon, and the three could not be more worried about. They should be happy that Chaldea is almost done and the world will he save. But they don't wanna let go. They don't want this consent in their life to leave them, and they want to see them go. At least the Lostbelts will happen!

[beanghostprincess]

A lil question: What do you all think about Ko-fi for writers? The writer being obviously me, lmfao.

I've seen quite a huge, huge increase in the amount of asks I get per day, usually with prompts and concepts that, even if they're not for fanfiction technically and anons aren't asking for them, it's quite obvious that they're asking me to give my opinion or to write something based on that. Because you all know I always end up writing fanfics about asks or just a long, long analysis that could end up being a fic. Anyway- The thing is, I gladly do it for free because I absolutely love it and those are not commissions or people actively asking me for fanfics. But I was thinking that if there are so many people interested in my views and writing (apparently you all like my writing and want more, which is, wow, fucking awesome to me) maybe you'd be interested in me opening a Ko-fi?

It would work kind of like this (please, if somebody has more ideas, tell me. I have no idea how these things work and it'd be great if you could help):

Ko-fi for donations and commissions. Simple as that. Because I want to write my own original book and I also keep writing fics. It's a good way for some of you to donate if you ever feel like supporting me and my work. Because, I mean, let's be honest, I need the money. It's not directly paying for a service, just donating to motivate me to keep writing! And then I'd just take commissions of whatever fandom I'm in (or damn, maybe you want me to write something original with a concept of yours!). The commissions would be posted anyway in my AO3 account however, they'd be that, commissions for the people who specifically want me to write something they want. I don't have in mind yet how the prices would go, but you would not pay for a genre of fic, but for the amount of words. Like, you pay an amount of money for 5k-10k words and more money if you want something in between 10k-20k (with obviously a range. Dw, I'll think about it) etc, etc, etc.

I am aware of the whole stigma surrounding fanfic writers profiting off their fics, but I am not selling anything, actually. Ko-fi would be for donations to support me and commissions.

Let me know what you think, please, because when I say I get a ton of asks per day I am not joking and I thought "oh, well, if people like my opinion/writing so much they'd be willing to pay a lil bit for new, specific content". That being said, you can send asks like normal and I will always give my opinion on things and even write fanfics if I like it a lot, but if you truly, really want me to write something for you, I could open commissions.

WAIT HELLO HI MAH sorry this is so random (and so long) but i have some jamali thoughts for you perhaps? :0

i was thinking about jamil (so nothing's new really) about how he’s canonically very knowledgeable about fabrics in general due to his job

and with damali being blind (and i believe you mentioned something about her caring more about the feel of her outfit — i.e. the fabrics and textures of the outfit and stuff)

do you think they would often go out for outfit dates??? or just spend quality time dressing each other up, doing make up, etc -

i just kind of love the idea that they would banter or help each other out about what would look good on one another??? and i also thought of something like this happening -

so i suppose damali can only really give a feel of jamil’s outfits and just assume they look good on him,,, but jamil would probably know the perfect outfit with the fabrics and style that damali would like and yeah jamil is spot on, damali loves the feel of the outfit, but then she would ask what jamil thinks (probably as a joke? and expecting a dismissive answer) jamil would look at her and then tell her with the most genuine tone ever in his voice to let her know that she looks beautiful (maybe also with the intention to fluster her while still being honest with what he thinks) and damali (not expecting the genuine answer) is flustered(?) bc she actually believes him like these are the only times that she would actually take a compliment about her beauty and then back to teasing and banter after the shock wears off

idk idk im rambling jfdhfkdskj but i want to hear what you think/ your take on it if you have a different vision for it!! :0 (also forgive me and correct me if i gave any misinterpretation of damali’s character and her dynamic with jamil 😭)

STAWP THIS IS ADORABLE I LOVE THAT?? Also oh my goodness don't worry Ian I love whenever u come to my inbox kxjxiehsjdb

I love this sm what... I totally think they'd go on shopping/thrifting dates together!!

I can def see Damali making the joke of "wow this looks awesome" "yeah this really accentuates your hips" "no def this one looks so good" as she's looking at absolutely nothing and Jamil is just. So done. He's so tired.

She would genuinely do her best to choose outfits/give opinions of outfits that look good on Jamil, despite not being able to see. She'd so her best to choose the most comfortable outfits and the ones that feel like they're very well made for him, like doing her best to help him in any way<33

Jamil choosing the exact type of clothes she likes is very on point, and him trying to fluster her makes a lot of sense too😭😭 you got Damali right!! She's normally the teaser/flirt because it's hard for her to take her feelings seriously so the moment Jamil does the same to her she's just a blushing mess😭😭 she's actually way more in love than she shows, so it's easy to fluster her despite what people think 🥺🥺

family tree

for the godmod themself, @zilleniose / @zillychu , who wrote half of this. happy 9th anniversary to your brain baby.

----

"How was your day at school kids?"

The triplets, who had just been picked up by their uncle, looked at Henry briefly, and then back to what they were doing.

Henry was not prepared for the casual emotional devastation that kindergartners dished out on a regular basis.

Eventually, Acacia, who had made a bee line for her crayons as soon as they got home, offered up a "We learned about in-laws today."

"Oh really?"

(wait really? School was so different than when he was growing up.)

Hank, who had been eating cheese crackers, nodded. "Yeah there's like, mom in laws and dad in laws and grandma in laws and cousins in laws and-"

Before Hank could take every relative name he could think of and add the term "in laws" at the end of it, Acacia interrupted him.

"Dad! Daddy! D A D-"

"A little quieter please but yes Acacia?"

"Are there..... dog in laws ?

Mabel, who had immaculate comedic timing, happened to walk in from the Library in time to hear and go "Girl, I wish."

"Aw. Can Gompers be our goat in law?"

"I don't thi-" Henry started but Mabel interrupted with "Absolutely!"

Dipper blipped in, blood on his hands.

"Absolutely what?"

"That Gompers is our goat in law," Mabel informed him.

"That I absolutely asked for you to wash your hands if they have effluvia on them," Henry added.

Dipper began to lick them and the triplets giggled.

"Uncle Dipper you're so groooooooooooooss," Acacia moaned.

"Awesome! My plan succeeded!" crowed Dipper, a demon who totally did not just get bodied by a five year old.

"There's germs Uncle Dipper. We learned about that last week." Hank paused. "Also that you should wash your hands when they get dirty."

"They're not dirty, they're bloody, see?" He held them up and the kids giggled again.

"We have, um, a normal in law in our house." Willow, who had been reading her new library book in the corner of the room, finally spoke up.

"Oh do we now? Who do we have?" Dipper asked, gnawing at his nails to get the blood crusted underneath out.

"OH I KNOW I KNOW THE ANSWER I KNOW IT IT'S UH-"

Henry foresaw another parent teacher conference in the future.

"UH ITS-" Acacia looked at Hank. "I forgot the word."

"I did too."

"It's polycule."

Dipper immediately spat blood across the room; literally, ten feet across the living room, and the kids immediately began screaming. Henry looked to Mabel for help, but instead saw his wife on the floor, clutching her sides and laughing so hard he was worried she was going to hurt herself.

"Wow," Henry managed to finally say. "Times sure are different in schools now."

Call Me By My Name

Chapter 5 | ao3

"Natsu, Lucy!" a waitress greeted as the two entered Fairy Tail.

"Lisanna!" Lucy ran to sit and chat with the girl, the younger sister of Mira. "Natsu brought me to Hargeon the other day, like you suggested. I had no idea it was by the ocean!" Natsu sat down next to her and grinned at the way Lucy's eyes lit up as she chattered to Lisanna about her first time seeing the ocean. "I mean, I'd read about it, I knew the ocean was big, but wow! The water just went on forever!"

"I'm so glad you enjoyed it!" Lisanna responded, happy her suggestion had gone over so well. "What's on the agenda for today?"

"I thought I'd show Lucy this waterfall out a ways!" Natsu replied, excited to see Lucy's reaction to the enormous feature. "Looks really cool, I think you'd like it!" he told Lucy.

The front door slammed open, interrupting Lucy's response.

"HEY FLAME BRAIN!"

Lucy jerked at the shout and watched someone enter and stomp over to Natsu. The man was shirtless, she realized with a blush, with some kind of dark marking covering his arm and much of his torso. When he reached the place she and Natsu sat, Lucy shivered as a cold chill filled the air.

"Ugh, whaddya want, Ice Prick!?" Natsu shouted back, standing up and greeting the newcomer with the same fierceness, his heat ramping up to rival the other man's cold.

"You been trying to blow me off!? I haven't seen you in ages!" the dark haired man yelled, fist raised. "What, realize you can't ever beat me?"

"Ha! As if! Just didn't wanna see your ugly mug!" Natsu laughed, fire bursting from his fists. "Had a better person to hang out with than your dumb ass!" He pulled Lucy up, clutching her to his side. "This is Lucy, she's my best friend and she's awesome!"

"Uh... Hi," Lucy hesitated. Her eyes were wide, trying to make sense of this situation.

The man raised an eyebrow at the way Natsu held her, but said "Hello," in acknowledgement. Bringing his attention back to the dragon, he started yelling again. "Now you're using a girl as a shield? Real low for you!"

Natsu carefully sat Lucy back down in her chair before punching the other man across the room. He tumbled into several tables before crashing into a wall, the restaurant patrons laughing as if this was normal. "What were you saying!?" Natsu shouted again with a grin before his opponent launched himself at Natsu, punching him in the jaw. And with bursts of fire and ice, the two continued fighting, throwing the restaurant into disarray.

Lucy looked to Lisanna in concern. The woman laughed. "That's Gray. Half-demon. This happens most of the times they're both here, ever since we were kids. He and Natsu try to deny it but they're actually pretty good friends."

"Seems like it," Lucy deadpanned as she watched them fight. Natsu was tossed against another table, this one falling apart with a loud 'crack'. A door in the back slammed open, and a tiny elderly man that Lucy had come to learn was the restaurant owner named Makarov stomped out, kicking the boys out the front door.

"COME BACK WHEN YOU CAN CALM DOWN!" Makarov shouted, slamming the door behind them and grumbling back to his office.

"I should..." Lucy started, moving to leave her stool.

"Ah, he'll be fine," Lisanna smiled. "He and Gray have been kicked out before, they'll find something to do. Besides, you and I never get to talk alone! Natsu is always stuck to your side when you're here!"

Lucy chuckled. "I suppose you're right."

~~~

"Good going, moron, now I can't see Lucy!" Natsu growled to the ice demon as he picked himself up off the ground.

Gray rolled his eyes. "Oh no, you can't see your girlfriend," he replied mockingly.

Natsu flushed. "Why does everyone assume that!? She's just a friend, my best friend, it's not like we're dating!"

"Really?" Gray quirked an eyebrow. "I guess that makes sense, she was too pretty to be dating you."

"Hey, that's not true!" Natsu growled.

Gray smirked. "What, you don't think she's pretty?"

The dragon seethed, steam coming from his nostrils in his frustration. "Are you blind!? Of course she's pretty! She has hair the color of sunshine and gold, and adorable sparkling eyes, and a gorgeous laugh, and her smile is the prettiest thing in the world!" Natsu's frown became a smile and his tone lightened as he described her. "But she's not just pretty, she's so nice and fun and I wanna be with her all the time, which you prevented!" he punctuated with a glare to the ice demon.

Gray burst out laughing. "Wow, I was joking before but you really are smitten."

"For fuck's sake, I already told you, we're friends."

"If you say so," Gray laughed again, this time interrupted by a punch in the jaw. "Hey, don't get mad at me because you don't know you like a girl!" Gray growled.

"Obviously I like her, she's my best friend!" Natsu shouted, exasperated and confuddled.

"Not the 'like' I meant, idiot."

"Tch, whatever," Natsu grumbled. "I'm going back inside. I got stuff to do with Lucy. And no, it's not a date!"

Gray raised his hands up innocently. "I didn't say a word," he snickered.

~~~

"Natsu really set Gray's hair on fire!?"

Lisanna nodded with a giggle. "Yup, Gray was completely bald. And completely pissed."

"I can't believe he did that!" Lucy laughed. "Well, no, I can." Natsu was somewhat careful and less impulsive when it was just the two of them, but Lucy had been with him around other people plenty enough to see how wild he could get.

"Mhm, and I've got a thousand more stories like it," Lisanna grinned. "Erza, Mira, Elfman, and I were all raised in Makarov's family, and Makarov is friends with Natsu's parents and Gray's mom, so we all spent a lot of time together as kids."

"Yeah, Natsu mentioned something about that," Lucy commented. "It must've been great having so much family."

Lisanna rubbed Lucy's hand in comfort. "And now you're here, too," she smiled. "I'm speaking for all of us when I say it's been so nice getting to know you."

"Thanks, I needed to hear that," Lucy grinned. "When I ran away from the fae territory, I was terrified of going anywhere, meeting anyone, accidentally learning their name... I only ever spoke to others when I had to. I didn't think anyone would ever be so friendly with me..." She admitted. "But then I met Natsu and he just pushed all those fears away. He insisted on being my friend, he brought me to meet you guys, and he's shown me all sorts of things I could only dream about cooped up at home." Lucy smiled bright as her heart swelled. "I'm just so happy to have met him."

"Happy to have met who?" Natsu questioned innocently as he strolled back in, but the smile on his face told Lucy he had heard her perfectly. Lucy jumped and flushed brightly as he sat down next to her, grasping her hand and squeezing it. "I'm really happy I met you, too," he told her, grinning widely while his heart thumped loudly.

Circi gets Adopted

Summary: Circi gets adopted by Mari and Jowee?? What?

(Also Available on ao3)

🚤

"Heyyy, Circi. Me and Jowee really need to talk to you."

"What is it, Mayor Mari?"

"Well, uh, we've been talking and um."

"We're gonna adopt you!" Jowee blurted.

"W-What??"

"Yup! You're our daughter now!" He confirmed.

"... WHAT?"

"I know it must feel strange for you," Mari comforted, putting her arm around Circi's shoulder.

'Strange?! I'm older than both of these bozos!!!'

"But this is what we felt was the right thing to do." Mari looked at Jowee. The two gave reassuring glances and nodded.

"You'll make a wonderful daughter, Circi." Jowee smiled. "We love you."

"Um, okay? That's weird." 'What the Rapo am I supposed to say to that?!?'

"It's not weird! It's perfectly normal!" Jowee said, unconvinced by his own words. "It's fine!"

"No? No it's not fine??"

"Circi, we just want to do the best thing for us. Please, give it chance." Mari pleaded.

'I can't just refuse! What if I blow my cover?!' "*sigh* I'll do my best, Mayor Mari."

"That's MOM to you!" Jowee corrected. "Y'know, what? Call me Mom too, why the fuck not?"

"Um, speaking of the Mayor thing..." Mari fidgeted. "There's something we have to tell you about that too..." She took a deep breath. "Now that you're our daughter... We were thinking... Um."

Circi grew wide eyed. 'They're going to train me to become the next Mayor!! Oh my Wilfre!! Once they teach me all they know, and they feel comfortable, I'll kill them! And lead this stupid town in your honor!!! Mwee hee hee!!!!'

"Mari's gonna retire!!!" Jowee blurted.

"WHAT!!?" Circi's jaw dropped to the floor.

"I know! I know! It's a lot at once. But you've done so well as my assistant. And I was never really that great at being Mayor... Rapo, I didn't even like it very much. But you? You'd do great."

Circi's eyes grew even wider somehow. 'Oh wow! I don't even have to kill anybody! Poggers!'

"Yeah, you'll gonna be an Awesome Mayor!" Jowee went and rolled out some travel luggage. "Which is like, super cool because we're getting the he'll out of this town!"

"WHAT"

"I've told you how much I always wanted to travel the world. Now that I'm not Mayor anymore, we can finally go on an adventure together" Mari and Jowee looked longingly into each other's eyes, and kissed. 

 "WHAT"

 "Well, we're headed off! Bye Circi sweetie!! Take care of Rapoville!" Mari waved, now wearing sunglasses.

 "WHAT"

 "Byeeee Circi!!!! Mommy is gonna send you SO MANY SOUVENIRS!!!" Jowee waved very excitedly. 

Mari and Jowee then got in a boat and sailed away like very very fast. They're never coming back lol

Circi stared at the water, dumbfounded. "WHAT THE FUCK" After processing all of that, an evil grin snuck up on her face. "Ha ha.... Ha ha...." Her face twisted into pure evil. "Tee hee hee hee~!" She marched her way back to the village hall. 'Those IDIOTS!!! They didn't have a clue who they've left in charge!!! Now I can get back to my plan to resurrect my sweet snookums~! AND NOBODY CAN STOP ME!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHSHAHAJAHAHAHAHAHAGAGAGAGAHAHAHAHA-!'

"Mayor Circi!" Isaac rushed up to her. "Can you tell Chef Cookie that this is a perfectly reasonable price for mayonnaise jars?"

"Uh, I'm a little busy here."

"Ze is a liar!!!" Cookie followed. "Zat Isaac is ruthless!!! Tell him!!"

"Uh.."

Suddenly, more and more Raposa swarmed up to her. "Circi, somebody stole my favorite coffee mug!!"

"Mayor Circi! Who's your heir gonna be?"

"Where did Mayor Mari go????"

"Mayor Circi, my brother is being annoying! Can you kill him or something?"

"Mayor, We need a public pool!"

"Mayor Circi! I want more beach toys!!"

"Mayor Circi! This town sucks!"

"Mayor!!! Hiiii!!!!"

"Mayor, look what Crazy Barks did to my yard!!!!"

"I'm hungry!"

"Mayor, kick out those pirates!!"

"Mayor Circi, can you tell me a story"

"Mayor, can we get a giant rocket ship?"

"Mayor! Mayor! Mayor! Mayor! Mayor! Mayor!"

"Noooooooooooooooo!!!!!" Circi cried, unable to continue her evil plot.

[silentwillowwhisperer]

Okay so I counted the total number of notes on all of my posts and came to a grand total of:

839?!?!?

Oh. My. Goodness.

Thank you ALL so so so much!!!!!!! I'm having a mini freakout over here!!!!!

-------------------------------

The MFE pilots and Atlas crew know Shiro as "Captain," or "Takashi" at the friendliest.

They view him as a superior, someone to respect.

Which probably explains why they're so confused about his closeness with the paladins.

Colleen will be speaking to her child about motherly things, and suddenly Shiro will walk over and ruffle Pidge's hair.

Or Veronica will be lecturing Lance about doing something stupid (The other traitorous paladins snuck off and mouthed their thanks towards him for 'taking one for the group.') and suddenly Lance will call out. "Hey Shiro!" before bro-hugging him.

They finally ask about it one day in the lounge when the majority of the Atlas crew and the paladins -even Keith- are all just chilling after a long battle.

Shiro is watching the paladins (read: Keith, Lance, and Pidge) play each other aggressively on the gaming console that Pidge apparently installed into the ship.

Shiro goes to grab them snacks because he's awesome like that.

When he hands said snacks to the three gamers, they all chorus, "Thanks, Spacedad," creepily in sync.

Everyone turns immediately in shock.

Of course, they had already figured out that the members of Voltron are very close with Shiro, but not that close.

Sam Holt feels slightly replaced.

"What is going on? Where is your military hierarchy?" Griffin pipes up.

Shiro is not AT ALL fond of Griffin. Yes, Keith did let the first punch fly when they got into that fight at the Garrison all those years ago, but Shiro will hold a grudge against anyone who dares hurt his baby physically or verbally (and James did both!) and therefore believes that Keith was at least 80% justified in his act of aggression.

WOW, that was a long sentence.

So when Shiro responds as neutrally as possible, it's with a slightly upturned nose and a dignified tone of superiority.

"I gave up trying to stop them a LONG while ago. I've come to terms with it."

Hunk walks in at that moment.

"Hey guys! Are we talking about Shiro's nickname? 'Cuz we gave him a shirt with 'Spacedad' written across it in sparkly letters last year for his birthday that I particularly like."

The other 3 paladins present nod mindlessly as they continue to battle each other virtually.

Shiro gives everyone a look that says, 'See? Totally normal.'

"It's the only way I can keep them in line. They threaten each other saying that they'll call their 'dad' which is me if you haven't figured that out yet somehow, and it actually works most of the time."

Lance snorts. "Yup. Spacedad's gotta do what a Spacedad's gotta do."

Shiro gives him a look.

"Okay I might have to smack you with a pillow for that one."

Lance squeals and wraps his arms around Keith for protection, causing the boy to startle and drop his own controller.

Pidge finally pulls ahead and wins. They jump up and crow out victoriously, "YES! In your FACES you crap-eating WEBLUM FACES."

Keith groaned and leaned back into Lance's chest (because Lance is tryna be sneaky and is therefore taking this as his chance to trap Keith securely in his arms).

"I blame this on you, Spacedad. I have to let Lance and Pidge braid my hair now."

------

I just added Spacedad to my computer's dictionary so that it would stop trying to spellcheck me. This is how you know that I'm truly way too into Voltron. Oh, well.

[theonekrafter]

hello! i love all your writing so much - your characters are super unique and refreshing, i was so excited when i saw your new naruto si/oc. do you have any fic recs (any fandom)?

TY!! i dont really make rec lists often but here's some now!

(sidenote, i keep almost ALL of my bookmarks public on ao3, so if you ever want to see what i'm reading you can probably find it there)

I'll just stick to naruto recs for now!

Naruto

Stretch, Fold, Expand by SenjuMizusaya

Kazue has not always been Kazue, but this does not make her less of a Nara, or less of a kunoichi, or less of a sister. Only less gullible. (Semi-SI into the Narutoverse.)

self insert into shikamaru's sister. there's only three chapters right now, but the clan political intrigue is super promising, as well as addressing a lot of canonical sexism.

Fallow Fields by zarinthel

For every rising star that the shinobi world produces, a hundred other geniuses are chewed up and spit out. Seiko crawls out of that grinder, only to find that she still has the rest of her life to face head on.

another si that is named seiko. completely embarrassed that i used the name as well without realizing, especially since this fic is so excellent and i would hate to cramp on the author's style.

a fic that is more focused on a slice of life story than an endless power grind, though the si does get a chance to be badass and awesome.

Glass Marionette by Haunted_Frost

It takes time to process the memories, but by the time Kankuro becomes a student at the Sunagakure Academy, he's certain he knows: he's in the Naruto universe, a village away, and he's standing next to a ticking time bomb at all times. One that he has an unfortunate urge to hug and tuck in for bed. Well, at least he gets to indulge in his inner theater kid with the whole puppet thing. That's a bonus. If he can just manage to wait out the worst of it, he might even become strong enough to make a difference in the upcoming war.

si into kankuro methodically destroys canon and makes a happy ending for people in under 100k words. marvelous, gay, and it's suna centric.

If 3 Reincarnated Ninja Were Fighting a Moon Goddess and One of Them Got Killed With a Rock, Would That Be Fucked Up Or What by mordox

Three random idiots were transmigrated into bodies of Konoha toddlers during the kyuubi attack. Each thinking they’re the only one who remembers a past life, they each try to hide it. Coincidentally, they are all assigned to Hatake Kakashi’s genin team since they were only average academy students and don’t have parents to complain about their children being failed via bell test, which happened with the last three teams he was assigned. What follows is three fools trying to hide their knowledge from each other and their jounin-sensei while desperately trying to reach chunin fast enough that Kakashi can teach the actual team seven, and a jounin-sensei who is very confused by his three genin but has so few (read: zero) points of reference for normal twelve year olds raised during peacetime that he can’t tell if they’re weird or not.

fucking hilarious. i'm not usually into multi-inserts but oh my GOD these three are disasters, and kakashi is just so confused. a series of assumptions from all three PLUS kakashi convincing them all that they're Normal.

"i sure hope no one realizes i just used the acronym PTSD, as in the english letters in the middle of my japanese sentence." "oh, i didn't know PTSD was a term in naruto. wow."

it's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. you can't look away.

The Scorpion and the Frog by zarinthel

Maybe the fate of Uchiha Itachi and the Uchiha Clan could have been changed if Itachi had just had one more family member he could trust -- someone as powerful, invested in Konoha, and devoted to the clan as him. Someone with a little extra knowledge up her sleeve. Unfortunately for Itachi, the Uchiha's abysmal luck with siblings has given him… Kaeru.

another zarinthel fic bc they are a super skilled and i appreciate them. completed fic. a genuinely good subversion of usual si tropes while still making the si op and kick ass. she's just uh. a little mentally ill about it. the entire time. and we love that for her.

THAT'S ALL FOR NOW! i hope you enjoy these!
