I Know That People Have Already Discussed This At Length But I'm Watching The Patreon Behind The Scenes

the physical and metal exhaustion people get from school is insane. The way there’s no longer time for any sort of hobbies or interests during the school year is crazy. If I were to go have a 7 hour work day and then come home and spend my entire evening working, I’d be called a workaholic and people would tell me to spend more time with my family. But when it’s school and it’s homework, suddenly it’s ok?

I finally watched all 56 episodes of OUAWL (thank god) and I was wondering if you had any fic’s you would recommend? I know withdrawal will be hitting me soon and I want to have some back up stuff just in case!

Sure! Lemme look through my ao3 history lol (it's MOSTLY gonna be coalecroux ngl)

(EXPLICIT) Okay firstly, HAVE to reccomend I Like It When You Lie and its WIP sequel, What Lies Between Us by @sweet-reaper

They're 109k and (currently) 135k respectively, and they're GORGEOUS! The plot is enticing and feels like a proper extension of OUAW itself, and my art made it into the first one!! Great great reads

(TEEN) THE CLASS ACTION DIVORCE OF GIDEON COAL. IS SO FUCKING FUNNY. theres a bit of drama and it feels sorta fast sometimes, but its unironically so entertaining I can't reccomend it enough. I'm glad someone else noticed when Gideon offhandedly mentioned how many marriages he's had before the carnival hfjskfs

(EXPLICIT) What Happened on Grizzlepaw Mountain by @copperboltsblog is really good! It was pretty refreshing to see coalecroux get together pre-canon for once

(GENERAL) Frost, the caretaker is cute! A nice little story about Frost worrying over Gricko and Hootsie

(GENERAL) Catch You When You Fall is another good one, just a bunch of cute snippets between Frost and Hootsie

(EXPLICIT) OBVIOUSLY have to mention Just a Little Bit Mine by @ledetlore, I love their interpretation of Kremy's mom sooo much! The sequel fic Hitching Buckles & Hitching Breaths also looks great but I haven't started it yet...

(NO RATING, MATURE) And then an honorable mention for not a lot, just forever and Weaving Wildfire, by ledetlore and sweet-reaper respectively, which were both gifted to me based on my fankid Lillian and my Gideon braid headcanon <33

(coughs. there's also my own fic, Taking Notes(teen), but i remain humble)

I need to lay down on the surface of the sun. That would fix me I think.

It would be cozy I think, like a giant heating pad and everything would stop hurting for a while with a view of space.

I've been having jaw problems for about half a year now, so whenever it hurts my brain just goes "my fucking jaw, Gricko" and It's gotten to the point that any pain prompts a "my fucking [body part] Gricko"

Whenever my legs act up I just have "my fucking LEGS, gricko!" Repeat in my mind

How dare you sir

POV: your frost and you’ve just been cursed playlist

happy wednesday to all my fellow aroace folks

I've learned many things from watching Legends of Avantris. How to play D&D, the importance of friendship and what makes good story telling. But the most important thing I've learned is that the #1 cause of death over 40 is accidents.

the way Kaz just straight up does not have a mom in the books is wild,,, like there’s not even a throwaway line about her dying when he was young so he doesn’t remember her, just nothing

sometimes I wonder if bc barguo was so focused on Jordie and Kaz’s relationship that their parents were just put on the back burner bc Kaz doesn’t seem to have any memories of his father beyond his death either, it’s such a sharp contrast to how important other characters parents are (specifically they’re mothers)

it does lead to some possible parallels between Nina and Kaz, what with them both being orphans having very little to no memories of their parents and an older sibling figure that is much more important to them then those parents

It does leave me with the opportunity to characterize Kaz’s mother basically however I want for fics which is fun but a plot level it annoys me we don’t even know if she exists

”After everything you’ve done, how will you sleep at night?” How can you rest easy knowing everything you had to do to get home, slaughtering sirens and sacrificing your crew and reducing a god to begging? How can you live your happily ever after knowing it was built on lives lost? How can you excuse your own unforgivable actions?

“Next to my wife.”

Because it will have been worth it. I will have gotten home and made it back to my wife and son, and every minute of these 20 years, every life lost, all the ruthlessness and monstrous deeds will have been worth it to get there. I will rest easy knowing I completed my journey and made it home.

Hey also if anyone has some aro/ace/aroace book rece for stories that aren’t ABOUT being aroace but still include it? I just want to see some rep without it being the entire plot. I want to see myself in characters that aren’t defined by being aroace but also see and accept their aro/aceness.

I need some Ace or Aro / AroAce book recommendations!

I've read Loveless and cried at it so many times just relating to it so much.

So please send me recommendations!!

Hope you're having a good week
