Gallavich Gift Exchange 2022
It’s a wonderful time of the year yet again! Time for another gift exchange! I’m keeping it pretty much the same as last year, since that seemed to go well. Hope to get many participants again!
Please read the rules before signing up.
General rules:
Click here to sign up. You’ll be asked for a prompt for the gift you want to receive. Please notice you will also be required to make a gift for someone else (hence the word exchange). Having a Tumblr account is not mandatory, though it does make things a bit easier.
Once sign-ups close, I’ll be making a list of all the wanted prompts for you to choose what you want. This will be done in a first-come, first-served basis (if by any chance the prompts left are somehow not possible to be completed by the authors/artists left, the people who’ve requested them might be asked to make some changes).
If by any reason you think you won’t be able to finish your gift, let me know as soon as possible so I can find someone else to finish in your place. Please know that in this case it’s possible that the gift being done for you isn’t concluded either.
One last thing: you’re allowed to send anonymous messages to the person whose prompt you’re fulfilling to ask for more information (or just to be cute :) ), as long as you don’t disclose your identity, of course. If the person doesn’t have anonymous messages enabled or isn’t on Tumblr, let me know and I’ll send them the messages on your behalf.
As always, send me any questions you might have via askbox or chat.
Minimum requirements are as follows:
Fanfiction - 1,000
Fanart - lineart
Gifset/photoset - 6 gifs/pictures
Edits/manips: 4 small images OR 2 large images OR 1 large + detailed image
Videos: 30 seconds
Fanmix: 8 songs + cover
Podfics: 1 fic
Dates:
Sign-ups close: December 3rd
Prompts will be announced: December 4th
Check-ups: December 13th and December 20th (these are just so I have an idea of how things are going, there are no minimum requirementes)
Posting: December 22nd to 28th

Gallavich Week 2022
Hello, everyone! It’s that time of the year again! Are you all ready for Gallavich Week 2022? I’m so excited for this one! We’re doing things a bit differently this year, as you might have noticed. More details about the prompts as well as full guidelines after the Read More. Quick reminder that all kinds of work are welcome, as long as they are original. Please read the guidelines before posting.
DAYS AND PROMPTS
Day 1 (June 12) - Theme based (choose 1):
Celebration (birthdays, anniversaries, festivals, holidays, random celebrations, anything goes)
Trials and Tribulations (problems, big or small, it doesn’t matter; may be between them or something they face together)
Day 2 (June 13) - Quote based (choose 1 - anything loosely based in one of these quotes goes):
“I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you. I love you not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me. I love you for the part of me that you bring out.” - Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
“I love being married. It’s so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.” - Rita Rudner
Day 3 (June 14) - Painting based (choose 1 - again, anything loosely based in one of these paintings is enough; may be the general atmosphere of it, the situation in it or even them actually interacting with it somehow):
Stag at Sharkey’s (George Bellows)

Spring is here! (well, in the Northern Hemisphere it is) The boys are ready for some spring cleaning. Are you?
Welcome to the first ever Gallavich Spring Cleaning!
What is that, you ask? Easy! It’s a multiwork event hosted by @gallavichfanficlibrary and yours truly (with some help of @gallavichprompts, thank you!) . That means any kind of work is accepted: fics, fanart, videos, gifs, you name it! Oh, and did I mention there are no requirements either? Drabbles and one-shots are more than welcome (my burn-out brain actually thanks you).
The only rule for this event is: it’s got to be PG-13 - in other words, clean. (Get it? Cause of spring cleaning? *wink wink* I’m very smart). That means no mature teams, no smut, no M18, no ~lemon~. Of course swearing is allowed (I mean, it’s still Ian and Mickey we are talking about), just keep it sfw. Think of it as a reverse kinktober, if you will.
Prompts are under the Read More. You can use only one, several or all of them. Mix and match, if you want to! Repeat them, even! They’re just your starting points!
This event will run through the whole month of April, so you may post whenever you want. Tag me (@gallavichthings) so I can see and reblog it as soon as possible. Feel free to also tag the Library if you’re posting fics (oh, and if you can, please put your fics under read mores if they’re too long and you post them here in full, as a courtesy to those roaming the tags).
For those using AO3, here’s the Collection for this event.
Let’s have some clean fun!
Situation prompts:
Spring cleaning.
It's the first sunny day in what feels like forever, after several weeks of bad weather and storms that have kept them spending most of the time in their apartment.
Spring: sniffles, pollen, and tissues.
The Big Easter Egg Hunt.
The only thing Mickey knows about his soulmate is that he’s supposed to meet him in the spring.
Teenagers Ian and Mickey somehow end up spending St.Patrick’s Day together, and it’s not a date but it also kinda sorta feels like it might be?
Spring on the Westside feels different than on the Southside.
Ian and Mickey are slowly turning their apartment into a ‘home’, bringing small touches of themselves into it.
Mickey’s always been a light sleeper who has suffered from nightmares. It’s only when they finally get their apartment sorted that he starts to sleep well and really understand what a good night's sleep can be.
The lease on the apartment is almost up. (Do they stay in the apartment? Move out? Go apartment hunting? Hire a realtor?)
One day Ian comes across an injured cat and nurses it back to health. After a few days he finds a stranger on his couch and the cat is nowhere to see. (Shapeshifting AU)
The last thing Ian expects to see in the mysterious box that Mickey brings to the dugouts is kittens. And he definitely didn’t expect that they would end up caring for them together.
5 times they visited family members + 1 time the family members visited them.
Debbie wants to make a good old Gallaghers’ style BBQ. (Everything goes wrong.)
The king sends his best knight to kill the monster that lives in the forest. Turns out, the monster is pretty charming and doesn’t actually harm anyone.
Dialogue prompt
“Well, this is new.”
“This isn’t what it looks like, I swear! Okay … it’s kind of what it looks like, but just give me a chance to explain.”
“I’ll take that as a compliment.”
“So hang on, let me get this straight.”
“Oh, good, you’re here! Hold this.”

My #1 post of 2022
Gallavich Kinktober 2022
Hello, everyone! Are you ready for some (dirty) fun? Here are the prompts for this year’s kinktober. There are two for each day, one situational and one dialogue. You may choose only one or use both. You can also mix and match two or more days (in which case, please post on the day for the last prompt used and do mention all the days it fits so I can tag it accordingly). Reminder that all kinds of works are accepted and there’s no need to sign up. Simply post on the assigned day (or later, that’s fine, just make sure to mention what day(s) it is for) and remember to @ me so I can reblog it (just mentioning me in the tags won’t do, I can’t always see that). Let’s get this party started!
Day 1 - sex dream X “Touch yourself for me.”
Day 2 - dirty talk X “Oh honey, you know, you really shouldn’t tease me.”
Day 3 - uniform / costume X “You’d better be quiet if you don’t want to get caught.”
Day 4 - thigh riding X “If you’re going to act like a little brat then I’m going to treat you like a little brat.”
Day 5 - jealous / possessive sex X “I don’t care how good it feels you’d better not cum until I tell you to.”
Day 6 - exhibitionism / voyeurism X “I can’t wait to be on my knees for you later.”
Day 7 - food X “If you want to cum you’d better beg.”
Day 8 - stripping / lap dance X “I wanna fuck you right against the glass so everyone can see how good you take it.”
Day 9 - 69 X “I guess I’ll just get off all by myself.”
Day 10 - latex / leather X “Did I say you could stop?”
Day 11 - orgasm denial X “Open your mouth.”
Day 12 - against a wall X “Wanna see what I’m wearing underneath all this?”
Day 13 - sex tape X “I bet all our neighbors can hear you, I bet they all know what a dirty little slut you are.”
Day 14 - piercings X “You know, you always look so much better when I mark you up.”
Day 15 - unusual sex positions X “Did you dress up just for me?”
Day 16 - massages X “Come sit on my face, let me show you how much I missed you.”
Day 17 - hair pulling X “Take it off. Slowly.”
Day 18 - sleepy sex X “Pull my hair!”
Day 19 - face sitting X “I’m gonna fuck you in front of the mirror, I want you to see how pretty you look when you’re spreading your legs for me.”
Day 20 - wax X “Yeah, that’s it, baby, just like that.”
Day 21 - cum kink X “I think I like you better with a gag in your mouth.”
Day 22 - innocence X “You’d better be quiet or everyone’s going to know what a naughty little slut you are.”
Day 23 - handcuffs X “You deserve a reward for being so good today, what would you like it to be?”
Day 24 - scent X “You take my fingers so well don’t you?”
Day 25 - biting X “I love the sounds you make when you come undone.”
Day 26 - nipple play X “You look so good with my hand wrapped around your throat.”
Day 27- vanilla / slow & soft X “Is that a thong?”
Day 28 - tattoos X “You look good all soaking wet.”

Get your Tumblr 2022 Year in Review →
Congrats to the most reblogged ones, I guess. Myself included. 😂
Obviously the most popular posts were the event ones (especially this is mostly a reblogging blog), but the fact that the most popular by far was the Kinktober... Y'all nasty. 😝
Thanks for everything! And here's to 2023! (after the gift exchange, of course)

Asking all my favorite creators: Do you get much time to read fics anymore? If so, what are some of your faves from 2021?
I definitely still make time to read fic and i've read so many incredible ones this year :D you can find two of my previous fic recs from this year here and here (the second one is only from last month!) but here are a few more i've read and loved in the past few weeks <3
california wishing on these stars by hattalove
She’s been a roadblock for the longest time, a hard stop that cut off so many of Eddie’s thoughts halfway.
What if—but Buck’s with Taylor.
He could’ve sworn—but Buck’s with Taylor.
Sometimes he wonders—but Buck’s with Taylor.
And now he isn’t.
in which 'tis the season, buck is single again, and eddie is being very brave about it.
sins of the father by archerincombat
“Buck does what he wants,” Eddie says. “I’d rather be there to catch him than stand by and watch him fall.”
And, oh, it’s like that.
Or: every time Bobby ends up on the wrong side of the hospital doors
Your Fingerprints Smeared on My Heart (Lead Me Back to You) by letmetellyouaboutmyfeels
In 1880, Evan Buckley of the arriviste set is sent out west to oversee his family's railroad and recover from a broken heart - and meets Eddie Diaz, cowboy. When fate tears them apart, they make a promise: find each other again.
In 2018, Buck walks into his fire station in Los Angeles - and meets Eddie Diaz, new recruit.
paint me a heaven with your bloodied mouth by extasiswings
Buck.
Four letters. One syllable.
Eddie knows it’s a nickname. He doesn’t know why Buck picked it or why Buck seems to use it exclusively, but he figures it isn’t really his business. And also that it probably isn’t that deep—all of them use nicknames at work or otherwise in their daily lives. Eddie himself might find it weird if anyone outside of his immediate family suddenly started using his full name regularly after so many years of only rarely hearing it from anyone else.
So. Eddie calls Buck Buck. And he doesn’t think anything of it.
At least…not at first.
Here Where We Should Be (Kiss Me, It’s Christmas) by allisonRW96
Christopher beams brighter than the lights surrounding him and Buck smirks. “Speaking of Rudoph,” he says, reaching behind him to pull something out of the pocket of his jeans.
“No,” Eddie answers before he can even see the objects clearly. “Absolutely not.”
In Buck’s left hand is a headband. A brown one with fuzzy little ears and tall antlers that Eddie is one hundred percent certain are about to light up.
It’s Christmas and Eddie decides he can’t possibly wait any longer to start kissing Buck.
#notherenj nowherenj#asks#fic rec#i should mention though i'm currently way behind on fic bc this past month has been very busy#so my marked for later is a mile long right#so if there's any amazing fics you don't see recc'd here that were published in the last 6 weeks it's probably bc i haven't had a chance to#read yet!

Asking all my favorite creators: Do you get much time to read fics anymore? If so, what are some of your faves from 2021?
Aw, what an honor!🥰 I sadly don't have a lot of reading time anymore; work started going crazy in like, July, which was coincidentally when I started to take on too much creative stuff too because I'm smart like that.😂 But I've still enjoyed a bunch, including:
BOOK-U-UP by, well, you😂, as an adorable pick-me-up
Dancing After Death by @squidyyy23, which has me wanting to watch Sons of Anarchy after ignoring it for years
weaver of fate (to your will i won't fold) by Ravenheart (@sunoficarus), master of the magical AU
Where the Feigned Wind Falls by @ianrightsonly for one of my absolute favorite tropes
Since We're Alone by @buffymilkovich and @lethargicmick, for a great take on college boys
Under Lock and Key by @suzy-queued, because I just love their dynamic
Last of a Dying Breed by @wildxwired, because dogs (and everything else too)
Teenage Dirtbag by @thisaintmacys-bitch, musical Mickey my love
Thicker Than Forget by @wehangout, for one of the most emotional and well-earned slow burns I've read in a while
And many many more!

» Gallavich Gift Exchange 2021 (organized by @gallavichthings) for @notherenj-nowherenj. really hope you like it <3!
Prompt: different first meeting (meet cute)
Rating: M / No Archive Warnings Apply
Mutually Beneficial by Ravenheart [4.5k]
Ian has just opened a flower shop, Mickey is the ridiculously attractive owner of the tattoo parlor next door, and there's definitely something magical blossoming between them.

Asking all my favorite authors: Do you get much time to read fics anymore? If so, what are some of your faves from the past year?
i love thisssss! excuse me while i take this task way too seriously. i read a lot of fics in 2015 in the fandom i never bookmarked any of them 😭 i have a to-read list on ao3 that is 8 pages long and so many of my mutuals fics are on that list and i’m working through one by one. currently reading don’t stand so close by @annatrow . i want to devour all of y’all’s words forever and ever 🥺🥰
here are some faves:
-anything by @gallavichy and @goodkwuestion
-put my faith in this hole in the ground by @gardenerian (fic writers really shy away from writing about ian's mania, but if you want an accurate description of mania READ THIS. this fic was the only fic that ever made me BAWL)
-elevator music by @iansfreckles (WIP but writer goals!!)
-where i end & you begin by @gallawitchxx (also writer goals! bee is so talented that it blows my mind)
-against glass by AllThatMatters (i don’t see it recc’ed too often, maybe i’m late to the game but the rollercoaster of that fic is insanity!!!)
-restoration by @palepinkgoat (pink_ink has been educating the fandom about bp for years and i feel like i have a greater understanding of my diagnosis because of this amazing and talented writer)
-can’t figure you out by Crimson_Bebop (i am obsessed with forbidden relationship trope and this one is just 👌👌)
-on ice by ElfyDwarf (seriously wasn’t expecting to love this fic as much as i did because i am not into sports but it’s such a soft-boys fic!)
-smut writer goals: penile enhancement by @captainjowl, lit up by @catgrassplantdad and show me how you do it by @gallawitchxx

Asking all my favorite creators: Do you get much time to read fics anymore? If so, what are some of your faves from 2021?
oh my goodness 😭 first of all, i'm honored to be one of your favorite creators. my heart just went 🦋 in the best possible way 💛
so here's the thing: i don't have a ton of free time anymore, and the free time i do have is usually spent writing, giffing (is that a word? is that what we call it?), or sleeping. i'm a fatigued, sickly little bitch 😅
BUT - i did read some pretty amazing works this year. my goal in 2022 is to read more fic than i write - this year's been a bit askew, but hey, a bitch likes to tell stories 😌
here are some of my favorite fics i read this year (i'm limiting it to ones published between 01/01/2021 and today, because i also read several classics from years past, like SHITW):
elevator music, golden hour, and details in the fabric by @iansfreckles
how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields, the moment when a memory aches, and put my faith in this hole in the ground by @gardenerian
Sexual Harassment In The Workplace: Lockdown by @goodkwuestion
since we're alone by @buffymilkovich and @lethargicmick (still working my way through this one but i love it)
float by @catgrassplantdad
like i said, i have a lot i need to read. i've been bookmarking fic rec lists for several months and i'm gonna make a master list of things i want to read (also, if you wrote anything this year, please drop a link to it in my inbox! like, i'm not kidding. at all. i'm notoriously bad at bookmarking things and basically rely on my ao3 history to remember what i've read/am reading, which is....not the best method 😅 so just swing on by like [slides fic across the table] hey bitch, read my shit)
#y'know how people do those book challenges at the start of each year?#where they set a goal for how many books they wanna read before the new year?#i'm gonna do that with fics this year i think#and books#a bitch will be busy#but reading and writing are basically my largest sources of happiness so busy is good#answered#notherenj-nowherenj#fic rec#fic rec list#things my friends wrote ✏️

How to Write a Summary When You Suck Ass at Writing Summaries
First off, understand that everyone sucks ass at something. Get over it. In the indelible words of my very first college professor, “It doesn't have to be perfect; it just has to be done.”
A successful summary will accomplish two or more of the following: Declare who the significant characters are, describe the beginning of the story, give a tiny spoiler for the end, and won’t give away too much of the rising action.
Here are a few little tips that you may (or may not) find useful when writing a summary:
Option 1:
Take my college professor's advice and just get the shit done. Compose the most basic summary you can & post/submit that shit. ‘Cause there is such a thing as do-overs and resubmissions. You can always go back and tweak your summary over and over until it reads just right. In the wise words of @notherenj-nowherenj: “Summaries, and fics in general, are living documents. You can ALWAYS go in and edit that shit.”
Further, if you’re posting on Ao3, your subscribers are likely going to read whatever you post no matter how poorly you write the summary and your non-subscribers are likely not going to read whatever you write until you’ve got at least 2-3 chapters up. So? Pressure off, right? No? Ok. Option two.
Option 2:
Talk to yourself. Open up the voice-to-text feature on whatever device you’ve got handy & go to town asking yourself (and replying, of course) what your fic/storyline is all about. Turn your brain off, open your mouth, and let the self-love fly --seriously! Just go ahead and boost your own written work with the same aplomb you boost your favorite works. Talk about everything --the quirks and nuances, the samenesses and uniquenesses, the narrative strengths and weaknesses --just as if you were talking about that one book that changed your life that one summer. By the time you’re done poppin’ off in your favor, you ought to have plenty of material to get you started on a solid summary.
Option 3:
Ask a friend to read your story and ask them what they thought. This should give you some basic material to work up a summary. Consider giving them a shout-out in your notes section/dedication page.
Option 4:
Pay someone to write your summary for you. Why the fuck not? You suck at summaries, right? You’re reading this post ‘cause you’re hoping there’s some type of magical solution for getting out of sucking at summaries, right? Well, here it is: Float your friend/mutual/beta/neighbor a couple o’ bones to do the less fun part of writing for you.
Option 5:
CHEAT & PLAGIARIZE your way into a summary (part one). Yup, that’s what I said. Cheat by plagiarizing yourself (not someone else; should go without saying, but still) by using the “first and last” technique. Start by chosing two significant points in your story. Examples:
First paragraph of your first chapter and the last paragraph of your first chapter
First paragraph of your first chapter and the last paragraph of your last chapter
First paragraph of your first act and the last paragraph of your second act
Do you see the pattern? You’re looking for the beginning of a significant “something” and the ending of a corresponding significant “something.” Try not to pick just anything at random, look for two things that actually match or parallel in some way.
Once you’ve got it, open up a separate doc, copy/paste them together to make one huge paragraph. HERE’S THE FUN PART, hack and slash the holy bejesus out of that paragraph until it looks like a summary of your work. When I say hack and slash the holy bejesus out if it, by the way, I MEAN IT! Be brutal! This is a summary, not a brand new piece of literature.
IRL EXAMPLES:
Goldilocks is looking for just the right things in her life. After breaking beds and burning her mouth on porridge, she’s given up all hope. (Thanks to NJ for this gem!)
Little Red Riding-Hood
(NB: These paragraphs are short enough you don't have to copy/paste them; you can just scan for all the words & phrases you’d want to mine. Larger paragraphs will require the extra step of copy/pasting.)
These are screen shots of the first paragraph, as well as the final paragraph of Little Red Riding-Hood. Scanning what's there, a possible summary may look like this:
"Little Red Riding-Hood had a good, but never very well, grandmother who lived in a wood. After many wonderful things befell Red Riding-Hood, she got in some trouble which she needed saving from. Luckily, a woodman arrived."
Perhaps it's not the best summary you've ever read, but it does its job. This makes the "first and last" technique a valuable tool to keep in your back pocket for those times when you're really stuck.
Option 6:
CHEAT & PLAGIARIZE your way into a summary (part two). Do the opposite of hack and slash --take all your discarded lines and give them a home. Throw them into a blender, make word smoothies out of them, and use all those beautiful misfit lines to create a summary. They were supposed to be in this story one way or another anyway. Might as well let them be the first breath of life your readership gets from this new world you’ve just created. Right?
Option 7:
CHEAT & PLAGIARIZE your way into a summary (part three). This one is tricky because, if you overdo it, you could end up spoiling your entire plotline. For this technique, pull out a few of your favorite quotations from your storyline --they can be dialogue quotes or line quotations. Some writers will stop here and simply post their chosen quotation in the summary section. That’s definitely an excellent option. If you’re bumping up against a hard deadline, this is a solid go-to plan. Use it at your leisure.
If you have the time, I suggest you collect these quotations, add them into a soufflé, bake at 400℉ (200 ℃), and use this fragrant mélange to build your summary.
I’m purposefully using the weird food analogy, including standard to metric conversion, to illustrate the point: This is not like Options #5 & 6 where there is no real danger of accidentally giving your own spoilers. You see, for me at least, the lines that tend to be my favorite quotations are often those lines that occur during moments of major emotional upheaval for my characters, which, in turn, usually happen during a climactic scene. If you’re not careful, you just might over (or under) bake that soufflé and be left with something you’ll have to mess with way too much to be worth your time. Might as well hit the drive thru.
In other words, be careful which quotations you pull & how you mix them all up to construct your summary; you want to make sure you’re not giving away too much of your story.
~~
There you have it, seven different ways to help you figure how to suck less ass at summary writing. With any luck, this will give you plenty more time to apply your ass sucking skills elsewhere.
In case you're wondering, my go-tos are normally Option 1, a shortened version of Option 2, and Option 7. Most often, I'm just throwing a quickly written summary up & giving myself permission to tweak it as I see fit.
Please note that this is by no means an exhaustive list. If any of y'all have other tips & tricks for your own summary writing, feel free to drop them in the comments.
Gracias por su atención/Thanks for your attention,

I was tagged by this absolute stellar pack of my homies: @whatwouldmickeydo @xgoldendays @7x10mickey @squidyyy23 @smokey-mickey @look-i-love-u @xninetiestrendx @10x12 @mickeysfreckles - to do this fun 222 tag game [in honor of 2022]✨ I’m wishing for each and every one of you that the New Year brings good things your way! 💖
2 fictional characters to describe yourself: I used these the other day in another tag game, but they’re pretty spot on, so I’m going to say Angela Chase from My So-Called Life and George Lass from Dead Like Me.
2 songs stuck in your head: I can’t keep two things in my head at the same time, mostly it’s just empty space up there. But for some reason, and I don’t even know how it happened, but like all day I’ve been humming the chorus of Montell Jordan’s This Is How We Do It. 🎶to all my neighbors you got much flavor🎶
2 shows you’d rewatch forever: The Walking Dead & Shameless, forever-ever.
2 drinks you order at Starbucks: I’ve maybe stepped foot into two Starbucks ever? Unfortunately, I cannot answer this, although I am an adult, I never developed that taste bud for coffee.
2 movies you know by heart: The Goonies & Dumb and Dumber.
2 concerts you’d like to go to: I bet Billie Eilish would put on a good concert. And I’d love to see The Killers too.
2 things you want to do in 2022: I don’t mean to sound like a fatalist here, I swear I’m usually very optimistic, but my motto for next year is 2022: Let’s just make it through.
2 things about yourself that might surprise people: I don’t really like chocolate and I’m also not a huge fan of pizza. I’m a total weirdo
2 random pictures from your camera roll: just completely random pictures, nothing to see here. I saved them for science, okay.
More than likely you’ve already done this, but that won’t stop me from tagging you anyway @buffymilkovich @imikhailo @patrooclus @sleepyfacetoughguy @suzy-queued @yeah-all-of-it @ilostmylifeonline @annatrow @heymrspatel @notherenj-nowherenj @youareintroublenow @vintagelacerosette but if you don’t have the time then just hi, hello, and hey!
