ohhh, great choices! love all of those

(tales of arcadia is v cool)

i reblogged the "top 5 anything" post from you, and i saw the post about selkies at the top of your blog, so how about top 5 mythological creatures/creatures from myth or legends?

have a nice day ^-^

@yourneighborhoodneighbor

I love mythological creatures!!

Selkies obviously hit number

Werewolves baby!

Dragons! I love mother fucking dragons!

Gorgons like Medusa.

Trolls! Specifically trolls from tales of Arcadia.

There's a lot more that I love, but these are my top five, thanks for the ask!

[yourneighborhoodneighbor]

i see a lot of posts along the lines of "ask me x thing!" or "xyz ask game" and i see a lot of reblogs, and i just think it'd be really cool if, when we reblogged those, we took the time to send an ask to the person we reblogged it from. that way, it's more fun because more people actually get asks and we get to have some fun talking a bit with one another. even if you don't know/follow the person you reblogged it from

i didn't use to do this, but am making a conscious choice to do so now. i just think it would be more fun!

and maybe this is already an unspoken thing people do and i didn't know about it bc i never talk to anyone lmao, but oh well

^-^

[yourneighborhoodneighbor]

put “top 5” anything in my ask and i will answer ok go

[yourneighborhoodneighbor]

that is so valid <3

i just got excited, it's one of my main fandoms and some of my favourite books, the brainrot is real and everlasting haha

have a nice day :)

FINN! you've read aftg?!

-neighbor

Nope. But if I reblogged something with it, I probably just really liked the art or misunderstood. I had to look up that AFTG stood for “All for the Game” actually 😅

[yourneighborhoodneighbor]

WRITE IT!!! WRITE THAT SELF INDULGENT SHIT!!!

fic rec whateverday #6

today's rec is a very nice and soft andreil piece. it is what if I (don't) want that? (what would that make me?) by eeveepkmnfan

fandom: all for the game

status: complete

wordcount: 2899

summary:

"What if we try it and I don't like it?" Neil asked quietly, almost nervously. He didn't want to disappoint Andrew. He didn't want to hurt him. He felt Andrew's hand on his chin, gripping it firmly and turning it slightly down to face the blond head on. "Then you tell me, and we stop." Or, the first time they have sex, Neil is a little more nervous than he expected. Andrew makes sure he knows he can say no.

comment: this was super duper nice to read. they both love and respect each other so much, i am a puddle on the floor. made my whole day better to read this :) also, trans!neil, which is always a delight

i just finished all there is of arsonist!neil and firefighter!andrew and i love it so much!!

i love how their relationship progresses, the slowly building trust, the text messages, it's all super great to read :D

i also love seeing andrew interact with the rest of the crew and how his relationship with aaron is also growing!

i'm a firefighter, and i just got so excited to find this story, i had a blast reading it all! when andrew said "going down the tube is the best part of this job" i felt that haha

thanks for writing <3 <3 <3

-@yourneighborhoodneighbor

Omg! Yay! I love when people binge my writing and come to tell me about it. :D

Thank you! I'm trying really hard to write them getting closer in a sort of realistic way. I know it's Slow, but... that's how they are. Also yes! I think Andrew deserves friendships with his coworkers. And the twinyards bonding is very important to me. And I'm gonna squeeze a lot more of it into this fic. :)

Also... An actual firefighter is reading this?! Insane to me. I'm so sorry for the surely horrible inaccuracies. :') Thank you for sending this message! I love hearing from y'all. <333

[yourneighborhoodneighbor]

i can tell you did do research! it is all super duper cool, really, i love everything about this au ^-^

i'm honestly just so excited to be reading about aftg and firefighting in the same story, i'm like a dog seeing another dog for real lmao ("andrew's a firefighter?! me too! hello firefighter! hi!" -classic ff behaviour, really)

thank you so much for writing, you made my absolute entire day, i am kissing you on the forehead <3 <3 <3

(also heck yeah, station 9! the best one B) )

my first (and possibly only) phic for this year's @phicphight!

written for @akela-nakamura's prompt "A green dog has been lingering around Amity Park. Sometimes it's sad and forlorn. Other times, it's barking frantically, trying to get people's attention. One brave person gets close enough to to read it's tag: Cujo. The next question is, what does it want?"

it's cujo pov, which was fun to write :)

and in funny news, this apparently has no amount of words. not zero (0), just, no amount whatsoever lmao

(reblogging to my more,,,,uh,, "me" centered account)

Hello! list 5 things that make you happy and then put this in the askboxes of the last 10 people to reblog something from you. <3

oh wow! hello! thanks for this, it's really nice :)

here goes!

1.) writing! specially fanfic, it's so much fun :D (and reading it, too!) 2.) moths. i think they're cool :) 3.) animals. my pet, and also others. even looking at animal pics is just nice. this includes critters btw, and lizards and birds and such. i love them <3 4.) soup. ohhhh boy, when i can get homemade soup? with the tiny noodles? oh yeah, that's what i'm about. specially if it's bone soup, but not exclusively 5.) all for the game. this is one of my main fandoms. my fandoms make me happy in general, specially participating in them actively, but aftg has a special special place in my heart ^-^

[yourneighborhoodneighbor]

reblogging this again with this addition bc YES, DO NOT CENSOR TAGS!

DO NOT CENSOR TAGS

you are actually having the opposite effect that you want (i presume) when you censor tags, you render the tag useless, since someone who excludes the tag "kill" will still see your work tagged with "k*ll" or "k!ll" or "unalive" or whatever other thing you write that is not the uncensored word

do no censor tags. there is no algorithm or anything out to get you for writing words

also, this reblog (you can find it in the reblogs, i just wanted to put it in one place with this):

if you do not like that ao3 is this way or allows *that* type of works: this is not the site for you, feel very welcome to move along. not said to be mean, but genuinely, if you do not like it, take care of yourself and leave. don't start fights with people

Alright, to ao3's soon to be arriving Wattpad Refugees, a basic guide to general user culture:

1.) Unlike Wattpads vote system that let's you like each chapter, the ao3 equivalent kudos only allows one per work. Everyone is generally quietly annoyed about this. To engage with each chapter, you're heavily encouraged to comment. Trust me, it makes people's day.

2.) Ao3 has no algorithm. By default it's latest updated work first. You can find things to your taste through searches, filters and tags.

3.) 'No archive warnings apply' and 'user has chosen not to use archive warnings' mean two very different things. No archives warnings means the work is free from any content that could require a warning tag (character death, graphic depictions of violence, non-con, etc). User has chosen not to use archive warnings means it could contain any of the warning content, be it hasn't been explicitly tagged. Treat it like an allergen. No archive warnings apply is allergen free. User has chosen not to use archive warnings, may contain traces or whole chunks of the allergen. If you're likely to have a bad reaction, maybe don't take the risk.

4.) Speaking of warnings, ao3 has very few restrictions on the type of work that's allowed. Whatever your personal thoughts or feelings on that are, thats how the site is. You're likely to run across some dark subject matters and a lot of people are uncomfortable with reading that. You're well within your rights not like these works and have your opinion on whether they should be allowed, but harassing the authors of such works (or any works) is more likely to come back on you than them. Ao3 operates on a strong policy of 'don't like, don't read'. Use the tagging system to your full advantage to only engage with the kind of works you want to see.

We look forward to welcoming you all and seeing the fantastic works you create. Happy writing!
