more from the hawkeye-centric hurt/comfort fic:
Sleep isn’t restful, and the exhaustion clouding his thoughts thickens. He doesn’t know what he wants, or what to do. He tries to write his dad, put into words why things are wrong, searching for a solution to something he can’t easily fix with a suture or bandage.
Dear Dad,
I really miss you. When I come home, can we have Pierce specials?
It sounds childish, pathetic, embarrassing. He tears the letter up and throws the pieces out, trying to put the desperation out of his head.
#someday i will finish putting hawkeye through it and this fic will come to light LOL#thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#hawkeye pierce#tv: mash#ithappensoffstage

ok i haven't seen s4 yet but steve works at the video store right? if you are so inpsired please write billy trying to flirt/swindle his way into free movies and/or movie dates. <3
ohhh ok this is gonna have some definite season four vibes going on, but not in a spoiler-y way! just in the "the writers did something right and made Steve & Robin the best of besties" way. let's do this!
if you think that you've got something missing (you probably do)
fic requests open
Monday afternoons move at a glacial pace.
Robin sits cross-legged on the counter, her head titled as she flicks through channels on the mounted television set. Newscasters and weathermen and talk show hosts all flash in between storms of static. With Keith out for the evening and the store tumbleweed-level deserted, she has free reign to watch whatever she'd like; the problem is, there's nothing on. Robin sighs, flicks the TV off, checks her watch. It's only 6:57, still hours before she can clock out.
The front door swings open. Robin whirls around, a grin spreading across her face as she sees a certain redhead and her surly brother bustling into the store. "Oh, loverboy," Robin whisper-sings, slipping from her perch and half-skipping her way to where Steve is shelving returns, her hands clasped behind her back, swinging her body side to side.
Steve raises a brow. "What's with you?"
"Don't look now," Robin says, "but your boyfriend just walked in."
"What are you—" Steve starts, and then, "I don't have a—" as he cranes his neck, head swiveling until his gaze falls on Billy Hargrove, poking through the shelves with lukewarm disinterest as Max scans the horror section. Steve looks back at Robin, whose smile has only grown. "Stop it," Steve says, trying and failing to sound stern. He holds up a warning finger like an exasperated dad and Robin does her very best to hide her laugh. "It's not like that."
Steve is a little bit too loud at all the wrong times. Billy hears him, eyes flicking up over a wire rack of Sour Patch kids and Milk Duds. Steve sees him, a hot flush creeping up the back of his neck when Billy cocks the kind of half smile that could be condescending or could be flirtatious. Steve doesn't give himself time to find out which. He looks back at Robin, at her big eyes and that ever-growing, shit-eating grin she won't wipe off.
"Shut up," Steve says, and Robin sighs.
"Come on," she says. "I'm in limbo with Vicki. Worse than limbo. What's worse than limbo? Whatever it is, that's where I am." She grabs a tape off of the returns cart, shoves it onto the waiting shelf. "He's into you. And you get puppy eyes whenever you hear his name. You couldn't even watch Gremlins the other day because his stupid name is in it."
"You leave Gizmo out of this," Steve warns, that dad-like finger poked in Robin's face. She grabs another tape, leans over to tap Steve's head with it.
"My point," she says, "is that you're in love with Billy, and he's right there, and I am in the romantic Sahara right now." She hits him once more with the tape before slapping it onto its shelf. "And he's going to the counter. And he's looking all stupid flirty. And you should check him out so that I can live vicariously through you and your weird but still precious and oddly wholesome real-life love story."
"Check him—" Steve stammers. He can see Billy moving up the center aisle, pointing at the half-priced candy racks and telling Max to grab something for him. His eyes meet Steve's again, and there's that goddamn smile, and Steve's face burns hot as he again looks away. Robin is watching him knowingly, bouncing on her toes as Billy's move closer to the front of the store. "I am not checking him out," Steve hisses half-heartedly.
"At the register, doofus," Robin says, jerking her chin to where Billy and Max are reviewing their finds, Billy leaning heavily against the check out counter, Max slapping cassette after cassette onto its surface. Steve's feature soften as he watches them.
The truth is that he doesn't even know if he and Billy are friends, let alone whatever the hell Robin seems to want them to be. Sure, they're friendly, but Billy has hardly been out since...since Starcourt, Steve realizes, watching Billy absently touch his side with the slightest of winces. Max frowns at him, asks if he's okay, and Billy shrugs her off. Steve has gotten that same response, gruff but not quite mean, not quite the Billy Hargrove that tore through the high school parking lot nearly two Octobers ago. He's gotten it at the auto shop, where he's taken to helping Billy patch up his Camaro — out of guilt, he tells Robin, because he is the one who totaled it. He's gotten it at parties, where he's found Billy set off from the crowd, his back to the wall, one arm secured protectively around his middle. "You good?" Steve once asked, and Billy had given him that dumb half-smile, just one corner of his mouth twitched up in the most ambiguous semi-smirk, before pushing off the wall and muttering something about finding a drink.
"Earth to dingus," Robin says, and Steve feels a soft rush of air as she waves her hand in front of his face. "Go forth and be flirty," she says, sweeping her arm toward the cash register. Billy is watching him, Steve realizes, and his face flushes all over again.
Robin gives him a nudge and Steve stumbles forward. He feels like a fish in a tank, observed from all angles — Billy and Robin, two pairs of eyes boring into him.
"Uh," Steve says, clearing his throat and averting his gaze as he takes the stack of videos off the counter. "Find everything?"
There is a pause, and Steve glances up to see Billy's head angled, his body leaned forward, his eyes scanning Steve up and down. "I think so," he says.
"Good," Steve says. Max mumbles something about finding a bathroom and slips away and Steve desperately watches her leave, wishing he could call her back, feeling suddenly self-conscious, pinned in place by Billy's gaze. He busies himself with the scanner, dropping each tape into a plastic bag, pretending he can't feel Billy's eyes on him.
"So," Billy says eventually, tapping his fingers against the counter. "Any way you could sneak in a discount?"
"What?" Steve asks, finally glancing up.
"For a friend," Billy suggests, his smile feeling less in-between and more genuine as he watches Steve's face flash through waves of confusion. He slides the bags of tape and candy across the counter and Billy's hand lands on top of his, his thumb brushing Steve's knuckles in a way that feels intentional.
"I don't—" Steve starts. "Uh. I mean."
"You can come over," Billy says with a shrug. "Tit for tat, y'know? You help me. Get a date out of it. Not a bad deal, right?"
"I—" Steve stutters. He glances over his shoulder, sees Max and Robin whip their heads away from him, both of them hiding their laughter behind their hands. Steve looks back to Billy, slipping his own hand from beneath Billy's. "What are you doing?" he asks.
"Oh, come on," Billy says, though he doesn't really sound annoyed. "Don't play dumb, Harrington."
"I'm—" Steve says, shaking his head. "I'm not playing."
"Okay," Billy says. He takes out his wallet, fishes out crumbled singles and fives and slides them across the counter. "I'll cut to it." Steve silently takes them, fumbles as he counts out Billy's change. "I'm dropping Maxine off for her nerdy little game of whatever-the-fuck with her friends. She's got me stockpiling stupid movies because apparently I missed some kind of cinematic revolution on account of being—" he pauses here, makes a gesture with his hands across his chest and stomach, his fingers like claws. Steve grimaces. Billy shrugs. "So. You know." He taps the bag of videos. "Playing catch-up. And I could use some company. And you don't seem like bad company."
Billy looks at Steve through his lashes, squinting as if trying to gauge Steve's reaction. Steve stammers. He can feel Max and Robin watching him, watching them, but when he looks at Billy his heart skips a beat and, okay, yeah, maybe Robin had a point. Maybe Billy makes Steve feel like he's living in a rom-com, and maybe he wishes he was, because in a movie this would be the part where the brazen love interest leaned across the counter and kissed the unsuspecting protagonist, and maybe Steve wants that.
"I, uh," Steve stammers, meeting Billy's eyes. "I'm off work at 9?"
Billy drums his fingers on the counter. "9 it is, then."

This moment right here, yeah?
Morpheus is about to leave (and of my gods Tom is such a good actor) but before he moves Hob does this tiny but sure step towards him and I. Am. Not. Okay. About that.
What did he want to do really? Did Hob try to iniciate a hug? Or what was that about?
That disappointed look down, for a split second he looks so dejected when Morpheus storms out. And then, as a good opportunist, he again almost confidently? defiantly? raises his head and looks towards Morpheus to catch him in the rain...
I had Ferdinand Kingsley for half an episode and I would kill for him.

14 and 18!
favorite book i read this year: the one that has stuck with me most is performing endurance: art and politics since 1960 by lara shalson; i read it for fun because i really appreciate endurance art and wanted to learn more, and found that on top of just being a cool read, this book is absolutely one of the most effectively written and structured academic texts i've read, and has been super helpful for me as i've been working on my dissertation
a memorable meal this year: the friendsgiving party i went to hosted by one of my close friends in my department was so fun! there were so many people i love from school who were there and literally all of the food hit like everyone truly brought their A game

2023 BL wrapped
@khaotunq tagged me!! tysm ❤️❤️
Welcome to your 2023 BL Wrapped! Let's see how your year went...
You watched a total of 48 QLs.
You watched 409 episodes total with an average length of 37 minutes.
All of this amounted to a total watchtime of 247 hours and 34 minutes or a bit over 10 days.
Your busiest month was August with 12 shows finished.
Your top country was Thailand with a whopping 54,17% of the dramas being produced there. Here‘s your full breakdown:
Thai: 26 = 54,17%
Korean: 10 = 20,83%
Japanese: 8 = 16,67%
Taiwanese: 2 = 4,17%
Chinese: 1 = 2,08%
Hong Kongese: 1 = 2,08%
30 shows you watched were released in 2023. You caught up on 13 dramas from 2022 and 5 from previous years.
Your overall BL mood was eager. You've been gone from the scene for a while and were excited to fully get back into it.
The acting pair you couldn’t get enough of was FirstKhao. Their performance in The Eclipse and Only Friends captivated you to the point of changing your url.
Your most listened to OST is Your World, My World by Khaotung Thanawat and First Kanaphan for Our Skyy 2.
You giggled and yelled at your screen approximately 78* times and had 132* mental breakdowns.
Thank you for reading! Stay tuned for my full recap to find out about my favourites of the year and let me know if you wanna be tagged for it ☺️

Billy headcanon: Whenever it's Steve's shift at the video store, Billy goes in and puts all the videos in the wrong sections so that Steve has to fix them (and thus interact with the troublemaking teen who keeps ruining Steve's sorting system)!
Hear me out: from the moment he meets Steve Harrington, Billy's number one goal is to be as annoying as humanly possible just to get a rise out of him. It's like a hobby, and after a few months Steve has honestly just accepted his fate.
Of course, Billy has to clear his tyranny with Robin beforehand. He promises her that he's only doing this to mess with Steve and that he won't do anything to fuck with her job or create more work for her. Honestly, she thinks they're cute as hell together, so she obviously gives the okay and even helps Billy wreak some havoc by conveniently going on break or slipping into the back to count inventory the minute Billy walks in so that he gets Steve all to himself.
It gets to the point that Billy walks in and Steve looks at Robin all, "I guess you'll be leaving now?" and she just bounces off because, yeah, obviously, have fun with your boyfriend, she'll be back later. And Steve tries SO HARD to be annoyed because, "You know, this is my actual job, Billy. I have real work to do."
At which point Billy looks around at the otherwise empty store while slowly and deliberately moving an entire stack of tapes three shelves to the left. And Steve can't even be mad at that?? Like it's harmless, and Billy is having so much fun, and it does make Steve's shift go by faster, so okay, fine. He’ll put up with Billy’s antics.
(And when it becomes obvious that those two need a minute alone together, Robin pops back out to inform that Keith has either left for the night or that she's successfully distracted them and they've got the break room to themselves. "Do your worst," she tells them, and then immediately follows up with, "I didn't mean that. Keep it tame." and Billy is all, "You heard the lady," while dragging Steve into the back and yeah okay I might love this whole little trio a bit too much but listen THEY'RE CUTE.)

Northern Attitude by Noah Kahan. I'm honestly surprised that one's not higher, but considering what's above it... also not surprised
