Hi hi!! For the fic recs ask game:
2, 6, 7, 12, 15, 17, 18! I know these are a lot so feel free to not answer all, I’m just very curious and am selfishly looking for new fics to read. Sending hugs and kisses your way, big big love you 💫
my dear, darling jules it's never too much 💫💛!!
firstly, because I adore you, secondly, because I've read so many fics (per my 37 pages of ao3 history and that was only AFTER I got an official account) and I've been fortunate to read so many wonderful things and I'd love to share!
so let's crack in ✨
p.s. if you want more info on a fic I've listed, just lemme know! I'd give a synopsis for each, but then this post would be terribly long
2. a fic you've reread several times
I love rereading fics. Both for my own enjoyment and when I'm in a rut writing my own stuff. I'll reread sections of fics that I feel emulate what I'm trying to do and go from there!
these are some I've reread for both above reasons but there are A LOT more:
cracked open by gentle hands by insomnia (cosmicbluebells) (sunaosa)
Full Bloom by bumblebeesknees (iwaoi)
shinsaibashi, 1:47 am by yamabato (sakuatsu)
Glow by ftld (sunaosa)
6. a fic that made you smile on a bad day
ATSU101: how to fall in love with your fake boyfriend by solyn (sakuatsu + literally every other hq ships cameos)
I sure hope that guy gets fired by Xov (iwaoi)
I've reread both of these upwards of three or four times all the way through. They are laugh out loud funny and just so sweet.
7. A writer who makes you think #writergoals
FTLD!!! FTLD!!! FTLD!!! FTLD!!! FTLD!!!
I am obsessed with how they write. A perfect blend of prose, comedy, characterization, plot, and insight. SO GOOD!! They are a private account on ao3 (meaning you need an account to read their stuff) but my god I am IN LOVE. They primarily write Sakuatsu and Sunaosa, but also Iwaoi and the occasional rarepair and Bokuaka.
I so desperately want to be their friend to just shower them in praise, but they're don't have a tumblr alas :/
12. a fic you couldn't stop reading once you started
My preferred method of reading for both books and fics is binge reading, but unfortunately life does not allow such things. I read both ATSU101 and Full Bloom in one sitting! Other ones I read all in one sitting were (also almost all of these are 40k+):
the death of our hands by Bershlate (bokuaka)
LITTLE LION MEN by mcbeefy (sakuatsu [also obsessed with this author])
the courtship ritual of the hercules beetle by kittebasu (chanyeol) for mamimi (hyemiyah) (iwaoi)
15. a fic you wish you could display on your bookshelf
would it be horribly vain of me to same my own? I kid. in all seriousness though, I'd probably put Full Bloom by bumblebeesknees on display.
I remember finishing it with my hands shaking. It's just so visceral in how it's written. Violently vulnerable.
Sakuatsu, Sunaosa, and Iwaoi are all my top ships, but there's something about the prose in Iwaoi fics that hit like a GUT PUNCH!! I just really admired the writing in this fic and it's long enough to be a book so that's why I picked it.
17. A fic you wish you could reread again for the first time.
I'm not sure why I picked this fic, but it just has a special place in my heart. It's so soft and real and simple.
you're the brake lines failing (as my car swerves off the freeway) by ghostpot (kuroken)
18. A fic that ripped your heart out (but it hurt so good)
So many Iwaoi fics. So many. But also these:
run rabbit run by norio (bokuaka)
All There is to Say by nightscrawls (bokuaka)
Kilometer Zero by internetpistol (orphan_account) (iwaoi)
Missing You by ftld (sunaosa)
frankenstein's monster by starbeyy (sakuatsu [this has one of my favorite quotes of all time])
anywho jules!! here are some of my recs!! I have so many more (specifically in that funny-bittersweet-canon-compliant-post time-skip-between-10k-30k-category)
thank you so very much for the ask!! throwing over you like rose petals 💖!!

neji for bingo? :)
sam my mad lad hello!! thank you bunches for the ask 💫💛
Fun fact Naruto and Naruto Shippuden were the first animes I got back into as an adult! So even though I don’t post about it as much I do love the shows. Flaws and all.
The fandom? Uhhhh
BINGO! Let’s do the bingo card
What a sweet, complicated, underused lad!! I know I’ve seen the show but I marked the “don’t go here” box since I rarely post about Naruto. Spoilers for the War Arc I understand why Neji was killed story wise but I felt in regards to character and plot it was handled rather abruptly. There are ways to set up a surprise death with adequate prep that still leaves it a surprise. I’m not against the idea, but the execution (pun unintended) wasn’t given proper setup or payoff. *sigh*
Anywho!! Thank you for the ask Sam!! Much love and holiday happiness to you 💖

evie eve!!! your picrews all remind me of sailor scouts! 💖
isa you are too sweet!! 🥹 I aspire to their level of beauty and badassery ✨💫
it’s funny you say that. people who know me irl tell me I look like a real life cartoon character. most of the time I think it’s just cuz I have big ass eyes and am very animated when I speak.
but I’ve been told fairly consistently I look a lot like aurora
so if you take away the bangs ya essentially get me. (to my one mutual who’s seen my face I wonder if you agree)
also pink dress supremacy 💖
thank you for the kind ask isa!! I am sprinkling my love for you on your head like pixie dust ✨

great news i no longer have ocd (/j) anyways i did actually have a lil win tho! i ate an odd number of pizza slices (i did however take two bites of one more piece, sot it technically still counts as even)
fuck yeah fight those compulsions!!!
as I try to remind myself, resisting compulsions in any form even if we do “give in” later is still an active form of rebellion against OCD!!! proud of you love!!!!
I dealt with my OCD today by not doing my roommates dishes for them and doing my best not ruminate about them possibly hating me for it
little victories 🎉

EVIE im gonna cry i just spent the past hour studying for the physics test i thought was OTDAY and its TOMORROW i just spent our PLC (morning free period we have every thursday) freaking out over a test thats tomorrow do you have any silly memes or cute pet pics
Why of course my darling 💖!! I’m so sorry you had to deal with this unnecessary stress. I wanted to get these to you as soon as possible so here are bunch of pictures of my little dog Duke ✨
He is my sweet lil buppy and he will nuzzle your hand for pets. He’s a little ninja at opening doors and stealing food he wants and he never barks but he knows all.
I hope these are able to offer a modicum of serotonin and joy
Just know Duke is putting his head in his lap and giving you a kiss 💖💖💖
