Sorry For Disappearing And Not Replying To Anything Just As I Was Getting To Know All Yall Moots, I Moved

Hey rarepair shippers, I'm about to change your lives.

The AO3 Primary Ship Search add-on for Firefox (it's called AO3 First Tag Search for Chrome) adds this little checkbox to the AO3 advanced search page

And if you check the box, the search only returns fics where the pairing you entered is the first one tagged. This is better than the otp:true operator imo because it will show fics with secondary/background pairings too as long as your preferred ship is the main one.

You can even use the add-on in Firefox or Kiwi browser on Android mobile.

Have fun 😘

In celebration of the publication day of The Hobbit (September 21, 1937), I would like to submit for your consideration the cover art from the 1970 Dutch edition. Just look at that Bilbo.

yet again, more useless statistics. love it.

if homicidal why sexy

love it - it makes so much sense

Every time Sean Astin makes a statement on whether or not Sam and Frodo were indeed gay for each other in lord of the rings he’s always like “well we have to acknowledge that attitudes around sexuality have changed dramatically over the past several decades and since authorial intent is only up to speculation, the story is open to multiple readings, some of which might have different significances for different groups of people also they kiss on the lips because I said so”

on my way to rewatch lotr bc I have once again experienced a minor inconvenience

My toxic trait is rewatching lord of the rings whenever there’s a minor inconvenience in life

brother i’m going to be honest with you. i don’t give a fuck if he’s “redeemable” or not. what is this, the checkout counter? he’s not a fucking COUPON!!!!!

Tag who you want to catch up with / get to know better !

Last song: Champagne & Sunshine by PLVTINUM, Tarro (i love the singing of approximately the second verse but i don't like the end so i always replay the beginning) [ps: yours is sooo good]

Last film: was interrupted in the middle of The Two Towers

Currently reading: I was in between books! I just finished The Spears Of Jerusalem by George Bordonove (about the Crusades and King Baldwin IV, which i did like but some parts were seriously weird -women written by men stereotype, no need to elaborate-, ps: wondering if historical romance, even if published, if about a real person, counts as xOC fanfic, bc i've read all of the romance ao3 has to offer about this king already so how is this book any different?), and was planning to read A Splendid Ruin next, by Megan Chance, but lotr is also ever-ongoing

Currently Watching: Outlander, i like it! but the violence made me cover my eyes

Current Obsession: my ao3 WIP, i'm knee-deep in the outline doc (Witch-King fanfic)

hi, aspiring webcomicist here, any tips for writing?

Yeah

presenting the reason I started this tumblr :

currently only 3 chapters (including the fake one in the middle) are out, I'm outlining it ! chapter 4 should be out this week or the next 🖤 I'm working on 4, 5 and 6 at the same time actually (for reasons)

if you have any constructive criticism I'd be happy to hear it, especially after chapter 5 and 6, since I'll be introducing subplots and side characters: the idea is that they should help the story go forward, but If I don't do it right and it reads messy / confusing / "author has introduced an oc I will never remember the name of" then I'd like to hear it, no matter how mean you think it will sound

I'm also welcoming any and all opinions about the music (bc chapter titles) as well as recs

I'm a bit divided on whether or not I'll include songs by ghost, but I'll definitely have a song or two by independant ghouls
