I've been trying to figure out the best way to do my "kicking off Pride" post but everything feels too disingenuous so I'm starting from scratch
Hi! I'm Pine, your local ace/nonbinary/bi podcast creator who has poured every bit of themself and their identity into the creation of their shows. My goal with with Tales from the Fringes of Reality and Forged Bonds has always been to tell queer stories. The Fringes originally started with me writing anthology pieces discussing my gender identity and Forged Bonds has always been a trans led sapphic love story
While I haven't always felt comfortable being "loud and proud" I've always written characters that are. They got to be out and proud when I couldn't be and writing them gave me the strength I needed to take that for myself. This Pride I'm just. Happy to be here and out and happy with who I am. I'm happy to be writing queer stories with queer voice actors and queer POCs involved. I'm happy to be able to share this space with so many amazing people who have supported me and my queerness to the fullest extent possible. I'm just really fucking happy
So happy Pride yall! Whether you've been out for ages, just came out, or are still closeted for whatever reasons, know that I love you and I'm happy you're here ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Sonic drags Jet to McDonald's
“Did you steal my fries?” “No, I just borrowed them indefinitely.” (Prompt)
--------------------
"When you said it was your treat, this isn't what I had in mind." Jet had tried not to complain on the walk there, but if Sonic's idea of a 'treat' was McDonald's, his beak was going to run itself sore from whining about it. After races his ideal go-to meals were usually healthy, nutritious, something that any rider would get some benefit from.
NOT fast food.
Sonic lifted his arms to cross them behind his head, fluffing up some of his quills in the process. "Well if you don't want any you don't have to keep following me, I'll just treat myself and leave you to your fancy bird food or something." His voice had a playful tone to it, looking back at the hawk to show off his smug face, turning back around to pick up his walking pace.
All Jet could do was swallow the countless retorts he wanted to throw at the annoying hedgehog, begrudgingly strolling past the driveway entrance sign and to the main door. If anyone saw him rushing ahead and holding the door open with his foot and back turned for Sonic, that wasn't any of their business.
Sonic walked in circles as he figured out what to order, muttering to himself whether he wanted a burger with loads of toppings or just a handful of them, Jet only scanning the menu and deciding on a sausage burrito and mcflurry. After making the cashier wait for what felt like centuries, Sonic settled on a deluxe quarter pounder and large fries.
"For McDonald's, this burrito is kinda good..." Jet slipped out a small compliment before taking another bite of his food, careful not to get anything on his beak. Sneaking a peak at the other he had to use the burrito to hide a smile and rising laugh, huffing it out instead as he saw just how much of the hedgehog's food ended up on his face. Whatever response Sonic was trying to give, nothing could be made out through all the chewing and eating.
As good as this burrito and the flurry were, he couldn't stop smelling the heavenly scent of fries. At first the thought of taking a few was just in passing, now it was the only thought in his head, making sure that definitely stupid hedgehog was focused on his burger, sliding a hand forward aaaaand...
Sonic swallowed the burger mush in his mouth in record time once he spotted Jet's hand, trying to quickly stop it just to be a second too late, watching him snatch away a couple fries before shoving them into his beak, "Wha-! Did you really just steal my fries?" The offense was only fake, saying it like it was a dastardly crime with an amused smile growing. And he took a quick second to wipe his mouth clean with a napkin.
The hawk bathed in the response he was getting, making sure to drag it out by slowly chewing and swallowing the fries, leaning an elbow on the table and grinning, "Well, you did say it was your treat. And I didn't steal them, I'm just," Another four fries were stolen from him, "...borrowing them indefinitely."
Jet only received a shake of the head and chuckle, missing the fond look in Sonic's eyes, blue quills rustling while resting his chin on his gloved hand. Which, since he didn't take his gloves off to eat, had burger residue stained at the fingertips. "Never a dull day with you even if it means getting robbed, huh? You're lucky you won your race today, maybe I would've taken you somewhere worse."
"Oh really? You'd be that cruel to the world's best, fastest and most famous Extreme Gear racer to ever grace the stratosphere?"
It might have taken them half an hour to finish their food through all the talking, laughing and play-fighting, but for a McDonald's visit, Jet found it worth his time in the end and Sonic was glad he made time to run out and watch the race.

here's a little snippet from the a/b/o jegulus smut fic i'm writing rn because i'm bored and super excited to share <3
Regulus looked at him for a moment and then suddenly he and James were kissing again. It was fast and hungry, the desperation they both felt seeping into it.
Before he knew it, James had moved him so he was lying down and caged between his arms, one of the alpha’s thighs between his, so close to where he wanted it yet so far.
Regulus was scratching at James’ back while pushing his hips up, trying to get him closer, to get him to press down and give him some friction, but he only responded by threading his hands through Regulus’, now damp, hair and pulling hard. His lips fell open with a gasp and James, encouraged by the reaction did it again, using Regulus’ pleasure as an opportunity to lick into his mouth, the warmth of his tongue permeating his entire being.
Regulus had never been so warm in his life, the places pressed up against James were on fire, the fingertips stroking his skin setting him aflame. He was burning hot, it felt like he was in the company of the sun rather than a person and at that moment he understood why Icarus kept flying.
If he had to choose between his life and feeling the way he felt with James in that moment he knew he would throw his life away every single time.

A Life (SxF Drabble)
Sylvia smiles.
“How are you happy?” Twilight asks. “I am compromised. I was never supposed to grow feelings for them.”
She lowers her eyes. “I watched you lose yourself over the years, saw you so determined I felt there was nothing I could do. Now I see you happy and it makes me think, the life you've lived is not how I would have wished my daughter had lived, had she survived in my place. Yes, it may complicate and even endanger things. But I can't find it in myself to feel angry, sad, or disappointed. I just feel relieved.”

What Do I Ship?
Don't mistake this for a tolerance or tier list. I will read and write ships that aren't even on this list, or write ships from the secondary list sometimes, this is just to give you a general sense of the stuff I mainly support/think about and in what capacity. Might be updated periodically. Ranting and comments in the tags.
Re: the Mokuba ships, I only ship them in non-problematic ways, where either the Kaiba brothers are ageswapped, making Mokuba the same age as the rest of the main cast, or where they only get together far post-canon where Mokuba's an adult. We cool? Cool.
Primary Ships
(things I can/want to create content for; this does not include every ship I've ever written, just the ones I care about/are currently engaged in writing/plan to write multiple fics for, or ships I just stan in a way that I know it'll never end)

writers, how the fuck do you keep yourselves from writing 10,000 words of set-dressing and sensory information? I decided I'd be brave and look back on some of the stuff I wrote last year and decided was trash that needed to be nuked from orbit, with the intentions of retooling it for a shorter series, and just. What is wrong with me?
Maybe I should just put it back down and try arranging my brains back on the Major Phillips story, because I appear to be vastly more controlled with writing in present-tense.
