Seven(ish) Sentence Sunday ✍️

Tagged by @wikiangela 😘

Haven’t had the brain capacity to get much writing done since Friday, but I did manage to tippity type a little something something for LA Lonely 🏙️ . So have some of Buck’s inner self deprecating thoughts.

Prev snippet here

As the weekend rolls into Monday, Buck tries not to think about Eddie but somehow the guy has burrowed under his skin, an itch that Buck can’t scratch. He finds himself doing a double take at every fit, 6 foot brunette man that he encounters while on a call, both disappointed and relieved that they aren’t who he’s hoping for.

Not that he’s hoping to run into Eddie again. The guy didn’t leave his number or take Buck’s, and Buck’s been playing this game for so long he knows what that means. Because Buck is only good for one night, maybe a weekend if he’s lucky. No one wants to take a chance on him.

He’s used to it, so he doesn’t understand why he can’t get Eddie out of his head. The sex was good - incredible actually - and Eddie was hot. And kind. And his smile could light up an entire room. And Buck really needed to get a grip.

Eddie had his fun and then he left. Just like everyone else.

Also sorry if I forgot anyone .. there’s been a few url changes and it’s gotten a bit confusing 🫤

I don't think I told y'all, I'm a therapist now. Been a couple months since I changed jobs, I'm working towards my licence.

Frankly, it's wild, I can't believe nobody's figured out I'm fifteen ferrets in a trench coat and they are letting me tippity type up notes for insurance.

But also, when the imposter syndrome quiets down, I realize I've got more job satisfaction and feelings of competence right now than I think I've had at any other point in my professional career. So, yeah, gonna call that a win overall

Six Sentence Sunday!

Y'all! The amount of tags I've had pinging my phone throughout the day today as I tippity typed along on my New Year's Eve AU is astounding. I don't deserve all of you lovely humans wanting to read my words, but I'm grateful for it.

To @kiwiana-writes, @firenati0n, @ninzied, @sparklepocalypse, @notspecialbabe, @affectionatelyrs, @suseagull04, @ships-to-sail, @anincompletelist, and @happiness-of-the-pursuit, envision me pressing my hand to my heart with the biggest expression of love on my face. I adore y'all, and I'm loving everything you've already posted.

With that being said, would it be all right if I gave you all TWO sections of (sort of) six sentences from my first multichapter fic, starting posting this Wednesday, AND the New Year's Eve AU aka the first AU ever that wandered into my brain and took up residence? I sure hope so because y'all are gonna get these twelve-ish sentences anyway haha.

The official White House Christmas ornament arrives each year by way of an envelope they both know is from Zahra despite the fact that she’s never once signed her name to it. On more than one occasion, Alex has caught her smiling at each of the ornaments while visiting during the Christmas season. When she spots him watching, he’s typically met with the nearest throw pillow to the face, which he knows is her way of expressing her unconditional love for him, so he always ensures there’s a throw pillow on the edge of the couch closest to the tree when she comes for just such occasions. Bea has sent along some of Henry’s childhood ornaments, similar to Alex’s, and they combine Henry’s box of polo-playing figurines and a commemorative Oxford ornament with the lacrosse ornament from the tree at the White House and Alex’s commemorative Georgetown ornament. It’s Nora who managed to track down a special edition Rio Olympics ornament somewhere on the black market, or probably eBay. It had appeared in their mailbox one day with a note that said, “So you’ll never forget where it all started.” And when they Facetimed her, both crying and grateful, she’d waved them off and added, “I just hope it reminds you of all the times you could have been hooking up over the years” with a knowing wink.

AND

And his eyes…God, his eyes. Cast in the glow of passing strobes in a variety of colors, they seem to transform.  A green light passes, and they’re aqua, like a tropical sea in a land with no name somewhere just beyond the boundary of paradise. When he’s bathed in a yellow as bright as the early morning sun, his eyes flash emerald beneath. Bright red, the color of warning, of hazard, of stop please turn back and forget about the dangers that lay ahead, turns purple, diluting its energy into something less treacherous and far more regal, as if the gold in his mask and his carefully curated armor would be far better served as a glittering crown atop his already golden head. But it’s the white light slashing across his face to accent the original blue, as deep and fathomless as the ocean itself, that steals Alex’s breath. Like he could dive in and never surface, and he’d be perfectly happy drowning in the depths of Henry.

I still have a few hours, so I'm gonna toss some tags out for: @whimsymanaged, @inexplicablymine, @rockyroadkylers, @indestructibleheart, @littlemisskittentoes, @heybuddy-drabbles, @statueinthestonetoo, @vanillahigh00, and @ssmtskw

As always, consider this tag WIDE OPEN for all of you lovelies out there to share your work! Please please always tag me so I can read and yeet your work out into my little curated corner of the world!

seeing copia in person made me realize just how unbelievably soft he is sometimes? like, little noises and exclamations into the mic, how he’s happy and it feels like he’s beaming when the crowd is happy, being encouraging and affectionate with his ghouls/ghoulettes.

Hey! Sorry if this is weird or anything, but my partner and I are going to Boston for the first time in April. Do you have any recommendations for touristy type things we could do? Or any queer friendly places you would recommend?

We're pretty nervous because we've never been to the east coast before so any tips or tricks would help a lot!

Hi, love this question!! Here are some lists of touristy things I made for past anons:

And here's another list by @marzipanandminutiae

So the weird thing about Boston's queer spaces is that we don't really have a centralized location with a lot of queer history/culture, like Greenwich Village in New York, Toronto's Gay Village, etc. There are a few gay bars scattered here and there, but mostly you'll find that Boston as a whole is overall very queer friendly. However! If you're cool with boats, you can catch a ferry from Boston to Provincetown, MA, a town on the very tippity tip of Cape Cod that is known for being a prominent LGBTQ+ tourist spot.

And here are some general tips:

The weather here in April tends to be quite unpredictable! It could be sunny and warm or cold and rainy on any given day (sometimes both in the same day), and there's even a non-zero chance that it might snow a bit. I recommend packing outfits with lots of layers, and ideally something waterproof.

If you're planning on taking the T (public transit), keep in mind that we're dealing with a lot of construction and issues these days. The system is quite robust but also very old, and we're now in the "find out" era after fucking around with not maintaining/upgrading things that should have been done decades ago. There may be delays and/or detours depending on where you're trying to go, so it's a good idea to factor in some extra travel time. Depending on how long you'll be here, you might want to look into getting a weekly pass (unlimited travel for $22.50).

...And of course there's always Uber/Lyft if the T lets you down lol. Definitely check both apps before booking a ride, the prices vary wildly here. I find that Uber is cheaper during the day and Lyft is cheaper at night, but your mileage may vary.

Boston's night life scene is pretty abysmal compared to other major cities (which I think also contributes to the lack of dedicated queer spaces). We're very much a "do things during the day" kind of place, so you'll want to plan what you're going to do pretty early in the day.

That's all I can think of for now, I hope you have a great trip and I'd be happy to answer other questions if you have 'em!

falls in here like that one vine

ttt,,,,,tricky....

Tricky!

General Tricky Relationship HCs

Tricky is naturally a very excitable and hyperactive fellow, while this is also accompanied by a vast capability of violence and bloodshed, he’ll put 100% of his all into loving his partner. He’s pretty neat like that.

He’s basically the equivalent of a very loving cat, purring up a storm and soaking up your attention whenever he encounters you.

He does understand the need to slow down and relax, though. Despite seemingly being rather oblivious or hyper-fixated to an extreme degree, he carries around a solid amount of self-awareness. He is still one of the smartest people despite his eccentricities, the Imp Drive, and the zombification.

If he notices that you’re feeling overstimulated, he’ll do his best to lower his voice to a whisper (though this is still Loud™, it’s more like someone speaking normally), or if the sound’s too much, he’ll sign or scribble on notes.

He’s pretty snuggly and tactile in general, and likes to rest his chin on your shoulders, press his cheek against yours, or pull you into hugs.

Sometimes he loves to do those hugs where he wraps his arms around your shoulders and does a spin or two before putting you back on the floor.

Likes to gently headbutt into your shoulder or back, this is done very lightly and carefully because he might accidentally embed you in a wall 2-feet deep and he DOES NOT WANT. Therefore, you get the gentlest of bumps ever.

Tricky doesn’t have the best cooking skills, so he’ll often take notes of your favorite foods and do his best to find some sort of vendor or store to snag you a treat or two. 

Because the Imp drive gives him reality-warping abilities, he often stores said food and drink in a form of stasis so you can have it in its TIPPITY TOP SHAPE, HOT OFF THE PRESSES! :O)!!! 

When he does cook, it is a bit of a biohazard. It’s… sometimes edible, but more often than not Tricky tries to add some sort of flair or tweak to a recipe that results in… a very dubious dish.

He won’t get offended if you don’t eat it, more for himself!

He can get a bit protective, but at the same time, he trusts his partner a ton. So as long as you are somewhat combat-capable or fast on your feet, he doesn’t worry too much. However, if you are, as he would say “squishy” he’d fret a little more. 

He’ll sometimes stop by with snacks and other beverages that he’s pilfered around if you’re the type to forget those sorts of things.

He’ll also find ways to break certain items, and given that the Improbability Drive can affect the world’s code around you, don’t be surprised that one-day Tricky manages to give your wasteland-survivor self a gun with infinite ammo—that sometimes shoots an Excessively Large™ Mag round at your target.

That's all I've got for now, I hope you enjoy!

Hello, I have been trying to hunt you down on tumblr for a while before realising that you gave it on ao3. Can you give me more IOU universe over been obsessed for a while ??? Pls I ask with the upmost modesty ( imagine a shy kitten) I wish you the best of times and a hopeful future. :)

Hi there anon!

Yes I am working on more IOUniverse including what I feel like will be the I guess satisfying finale of the series. I just got bogged down by some health and life stuff and lost my writing mojo, but it is back and I am tippity typing again <3

bro where do you get so much creativity and love for your hcs/fics? because Jesus-

*chokes casually*

that’s a very good question!!! thank you for the ask coke!! 🥹

for the ideas, they’re just random things that just poof into my head at random times! sometimes, i’ll just get random inspiration from a random thing i see- and my brain just starts spitting out content!

(like for my b for broflovski fic- i saw a tiktok of matt and trey’s basketball and i just started thinking “baseball…baseball 3 strikes…kyle and stan have played baseball…baseball but tickles?” and it grew from there!)

when im writing hcs for a specific characters- i usually try to get into the swing of things. i think up a few hcs- and eventually im on a roll. its really fun when you think of one hc- and then suddenly it morphs into even more, more detailed hcs🥹

my brain works a LOT faster than my tippity tapping typing fingers- so i try to take it slow- so i don’t forget any of the ideas that i have before i manage to write them down. (this has happened WAY too many times :( )

as for the love of it- i really love these little guys🥹🥹🥹 and even when it’s not about South Park; i love building a story and fleshing it out! im a theatre kid (oh no!!! sorry!!!) so im a huge sucker for characterization! (and catchy little show tunes)

i think my favorite part when writing is the dialogue- since i love to talk through my writing. sometimes i read my dialogue out loud- because it helps me see if what i wrote makes any sense. i also like knowing how things are said when i write them- so reading out loud really helps!

when i was writing b is for broflovski- i can’t put into words HOW MUCH i was thinking about it <333 it was genuinely SUCH a fun experience- i would be doing something completely unrelated and suddenly id just start thinking about it!

and of course- knowing people actually look forward to seeing what im writing makes me even more excited 🥹🥹🥹

i hope this made sense!!! it’s kinda hard to explain- but i wanted to try!!! thanks again for the ask coke🥹

REBOOT‼️ VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION ABOUT YOUR KEYBOARDS please rate how much noise they make when you type with them. Do they make lil tippity tap sounds, or do they go more like clackity clack

💖&🐌&🌈&🥳&🤖&🪩!!!!!!!!!

Oh my gosh that's so much XD But yesssss

💖 and 🐌 (What is your primary writing goal for this year? and What is one of your smallest writing goals? (snail also asked by @novelmonger x)

Welp, since I only have one explicit writing goal, there's crossover here XD I'm aiming to write every day (exceptions for sickness and specific occasions). It's a small goal because I'm not anticipating getting more than 100 words a lot of the time, but I hope I can average more like 205 so that by the end of the year I can have around 75,000 words. All usable? Who knows!

🌈 What research do you plan on doing for your writing?

Plan is a strong word! I'm making it up as I go, babyyyy~! I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for information on rabies, though.

🥳 How are you going to celebrate when you achieve one of your writing goals?

Nap? Or stay up late reading. A good book someone else has already written <3

🤖 Are you looking to change your current writing setup? (Or establish one, if you don't have one?)

I've considered doing less of it on the computer. My physical set up is okay, really - I'm the sort of person who just needs it to be functional, with little clutter - but I think having a better set up would be more about what is possible with the humans in my house and with the spare space in my house. I cannot afford the house with the lawyer-study and the resort suite with glass in the door, so I'll just put up with writing in our queenslander room in the wee hours before it gets stifling.

🪩 Do you have any "good" writing habits you want to cultivate? (also asked by @novelmonger!)

I've already mentioned writing every day, so let's see what else counts ... I'd like to be better at Just Writing. When I sit down for a writing sprint I have to do so much reading back to get my brain in the zone, and I stop and start so much. I am a very slow writer, I think. If I had all the time in the world that might be okay, but every minute I sleep in is a minute less of tippity-typing. If I were better at just getting stuck in, that would be nice :')
