Feeling sappy, so here are some quotes, aka things I'd never mind having tattooed on me forever. Most of them aren't even from published novels, just fanfics.
"And in that moment, I swear, we are infinite." Perks of Being a Wallflower-Stephen Chobosky. Look, I know how cliche this quote is. I know how cliche the phrase is, but if you look at the story as a whole, and the concept as a whole, it's the concept of finally feeling accepted, of feeling belonged. The emotion and impact of this feeling brings me back to being squashed in car with Imagine Dragons on the radio and being present.
"You ever think about that? How lucky we are to be here? That strange realization. I'm here. I'm alive." @ian-galagher Africa. Another of those moments like before, the concept of fitting in, of beloging. Of knowing that you're here and you're accepting these moments. Of being with the people you love most in this world and that feeling of knowing you're apart of something.
"Yeah we all die someday, but we get to live first. And thats big, that's beautiful." Luke, Anthem of a Teenage Prophet. Byeee, having Cam say that line echos in my head similar as the first post in this post.
"The Moon knows. The Moon knows we're in love." Young and Beautiful. Can't remember the author off the top of my head, but it's a very famous Larry fic.
"You're still beautiful, even when you aren't smiling." Fading, Tothemoonmydear.
Copy of a Copy of a Copy, Louis Tomlinson Copy of a Copy
some of these are more likely to be tats than others.

jack daniel's, part 2 - angel of music, guide and guardian (grant to me your glory).
"Watch," he almost sings. His fingers hold the strings elegantly as his other hand lifts the bow.
The sound the violin makes, seems out of this world, almost. [...] The music wraps its arms around him and pulls him apart. His skin is tingling, goosebumps appearing all over it. His ears feel warm and his chest is heavy.
It’s alluring. It feels alien, Ian has never felt anything like this before. He’s heard music of all kinds, but this is something else. Something that consumes him completely.
[...]
Ian doesn’t know how much time has passed, but when the man stops playing, he feels frozen in place. He’s not uncomfortable, he’s just rooted there.
"Well," the man begins, his voice even sweeter than before. Ian shudders. "Are you ready?" His eyes still on Ian’s.
Ian feels lost. The music… he needs the music back. He clears his throat. "Ready for what?"
"The deal, Ian."

When it comes to reading gallavich fanfic - what are your favourite genres/tropes?
Hi Calli!!
Thanks for asking :) I hope your morning/afternoon/evening is going well. ☀️🌅🌚
I feel like I read quite a lot of genres/tropes, it really just depends on my mood.
One theme that comes up a lot is Mickey being amazingly talented in something and Ian getting to learn about that world. So Cooperative Gameplay by Grayola of course, The Menagerie by @crossmydna and Africa by @ian-galagher. It's just such an interesting dynamic to me, I think it's because I find Mickey quite mysterious so I can imagine him in so many different worlds and I love being in Ian's POV slowly learning more and more about Mickey.
I also adore fic's that explore plot holes in Mickeys story, I'm currently reading anything I can find about Mama Milkovich, I recently read your 'weight of the world' and loved it!
A thing that I have always done, throughout every fandom I've been in, is try to find stories that have the characters going through something I'm going through. For instance, if I am struggling with anxiety and panic attacks I will look for angst of Ian or Mick going through those things and the other caring for them. It's just something that helps me process what's happening in my own life.
If anyone has fic recs for me I'd love to read them!

it's magic time! sky ( @transmurderbug ) prompted me two words and i just wrote whatever came to mind, with no rules or limitations - the point is to just write. our braincells are apperently connected, and we both wrote magic au's without talking about it. thank you kat ( @mybrainismelted ) for betaing! 🖤
sunrise, sunset
tags: au - magic, different first meeting, witch mickey, bipolar ian, mental health issues
words: 3.7k
“Do you have an appointment?” Mickey barks at the youngling at his gate once they stand facing each other. “Don’t answer that. You don’t, because I don’t take appointments at this hour.”
The redhead simply blinks at him, eyes so green and so big. He doesn’t look offended by Mickey’s tone, doesn’t even flinch where other villagers would take a step back, maybe even hasten back up the hill with a mumbled ‘sorry’.
“No, I don’t,” the redhead confirms easily, his voice scratchy and hoarse. He clears his throat, and licks his pink lips, fruitlessly looking for moisture. “But I need your help.”

for this week's @galladrabbles the magnificent @crossmydna provided us her prompt in the form of: trapeze.
read from the start here or on ao3.
> Varangia: here, the equivalent to russia.
Opening the locket and burning the leaf felt like free falling.
Memories of Varangian trapeze artists filled Mickey’s mind, dancing through the air, no safety net to catch them if they fell.
He could still feel Mandy's tiny nails clawing into his hand.
His mother had stared up towards the ceiling in awe - stars in her eyes and laughter on her tongue.
Laura had always loved the circus.
Suddenly, the hair on the back of his neck stood up, a cold breeze making him shiver, sending an uncomfortable tremor through his bones.
"There you are, you dirty little rat."
#AAAAAAAAAAA#TRAPEZE ARTISTS#MANDYS TINY NAILS#LAURAAAA 😭😭😭#you dirty little rat 👀👀👀👀👀#in a rubber room?#that's crazy#I was crazy once- no I'm not doing this 😂😂#this is amazing Nosho! I LOVE IT! 🤗🧡💚#galladrabbles#shameless#water spirit!ian#mirrorworld au#nosho drabbles

We are hosting our very first writing event ~ so stuff all your pens, notebooks, and art supplies into your favorite backpack, bring water and snacks, and join us for Gallavich Summer Writing Camp!
What is it?? Writers and artists will team up in “bunks” and write a story together, paired with accompanying art (if desired!). Stories will post the 3rd week of July - during our weeklong virtual campfire.
What kind of stories can we write?
* The theme of your story is ... ☀️ SUMMER ☀️
* Story word minimum: 10K
* Please make sure your stories and art are tagged properly
How do I join a bunk?
* You can form one with your friends! Each team can have any combination of writers, artists, and betas - we recommend 3-4 people per group. And we'll expect a cute name for your bunk too :)
* If you would like to be assigned to a bunk, we’re excited to find the right one for you!
Got my group, now what?
* Once you have your bunkmates assembled, please fill out this Google Form by Friday, May 10 to let us know your plans. Just pick one representative from your bunk to complete it.
* If you’re signing up solo and would like to be assigned to a team, you can indicate that on the form too + your preferred role.
The week of May 13, we’ll contact each group to let you know your assigned posting date ~ and then you can start writing and creating!
Posting Week: July 22-26; we will check in midway through to make sure you’re on your way or if you need anything as you work toward your posting deadline.
We’ll have a Collection on AO3, so at least one person in the bunk should have an account.
The Fic Club on Discord will set up a channel specific to this event where you can ask us questions and chat with fellow participants. If you’re not on the server yet, come join us!
We can’t wait to hang out by the fire, roast marshmallows, and read stories together!
#this is SO cool and so exciting!!!#an excellent idea!#I love this so much!#Gallavich Summer Writing Camp 2024#shameless

this week's @galladrabbles is being brought to you by no other than my lovely pal @flamingbluepanda and his prompt: cuddles. probably a little different than you expected, but here ya go.
read from the start here or on ao3.
Mickey gripped the locket in his hand tightly.
Night had fallen over their refuge, a fire crackling between them.
He still remembered Miranda plucking the leaf within it off the alder tree.
"It will keep you hidden from your father's view."
His aunts had never been the hearty cuddling type. They had been strict and distant - but never cruel.
And they had aided him when he needed it most. For that alone, he loved them.
Niomee especially. She had always understood his anger.
Ian's warm palm encased his, sending shockwaves up his arm.
"You ready to do this, Milkovich?"
#YOU READY TO DO THIS?! 😭😭😭#A LEAF!!! A LEAF TO KEEP HIM HIDDEN#the shockwaves THE SHOCKWAVES 😭#I love this my friend 🥺🧡💚#I can't wait to see where we go next#galladrabbles#shameless#mirrorworld au#nosho drabbles#willow headbangs along

Gallavich Fanart Masquerade 2024
It's here! Our first ever fanart-only event (thanks @michellemisfit for the idea!).
The rules are pretty similar to the fanfiction masquerade. In a Masquerade, artists will create fanarts anonymously, attempting to create something in a style different from their usual in order to fool the "admirers". These fanarts will all be revealed at the same time on May 12th - our Fanart Masquerade Ball! - and admirers (who may also be other fanartists) will have two weeks to attempt to guess who's behind each mask, that is, who did which fanart.
Details after the read more.
Requirements
None. Any art style will do, as long as it's drawn, I suppose. Traditional or digital, colored or b&W or lineart... Just no edits. And absolutely no AI, of course.
I need fanart ideas!
Maybe this will help.
Sign-ups
Signing-up is required and can be done here. For this event, sign-ups can be done up to the time of posting. Unlike other events, this is one where you will need to sign-up only at the end, after the art is done. You'll be required to add your AO3 username and the title of your fanart (yes, you'll have to give it a title, sorry - it can be pretty simple though).
Is NSFW accepted?
Yes, as long as it is correctly tagged. Please keep in mind that in this case, it's possible some people might not be comfortable in viewing it.
What if I don't have an AO3 account?
Then I'm very sorry, but in this case, you won't be able to participate (as an artist). For his event, having an AO3 account is mandatory so that you can post in the collection. That being said, a lot of people have AO3 invites, so ask right now and someone may be able to send you one. (Or, worst case scenario, we can find writer buddies to post for you.)
Posting
Posting needs to be done on AO3 because the Fanart Masquerade Collection will be unrevealed and anonymous. All posting must be done until the eve of the Masquerade, so May 11th. On May 12th, all the fanarts will be revealed and available for the admirers. The fanarts will remain anonymous until May 26th, when the game ends. The winners will be revealed shortly after, along with the prizes (more on that below). After the artists identities are revealed, they are free to post their fanart wherever they please.
Because unfortunately AO3 doesn't host images, your fanarts will have to be hosted elsewhere and linked to AO3. They should stay as hidden as possible. One possibility is posting privately on Tumblr and then using the image link to post on AO3. If you don't know how to do that or don't have a place to host the fanart, please contact us and we'll help you out.
When posting on AO3, choose to do it under the Gallavich Fanart Masquerade 2024 Collection (as in the picture below). I'll take care of the rest. It's important to do so when posting and not after, or it won't work.
Voting
Voting will be done via a new form, which will be disclosed only after the fanarts are posted. All fanart titles will be displayed and the admirers will chose from a menu who they think the artist is.
Points
There are two ways of winning this game, as an artist and as an admirer.
Artists are awarded 1 point for each person who correctly guesses their fanart and 3 points for each person who wrongly guesses it. That's right, you get more points if you're actually able to deceive everyone!
Admirers are awarded 5 points for each fanart they guess correctly, but they lose 1 point for each wrong guess.
Artists can also be admirers, so they have twice the chance of winning.
Prizes
The winning fanarts will get short fics based on them! And the one by the winning artist will be the prompt for one week in the @galladrabbles.

Catching up on Electric Blue and started to feel a kind of way thinking about fan fic in general, and how when we (or at least I) read a story, it's not just the Mickey and Ian from the show anymore... it's all the infinite universes everyone's created - the Teenage Dirtbag them, and the Restoration them, and Africa them, the a witch in wicker park them... you get it. The 16K+ version on AO3 and @galladrabbles and ficlets. Each story leaves an impression and adds to how I love and understand their characters. Feeling sappy and grateful for all the writers! 💖
