I'm going to use this word in my fic, so remember it. I *love* this word. "Recrudescence"... Goddamn.

Is this weapon registered?!

あっという間にクリスマスから新年ですね🎍 今年もよろしくお願いします🌸 今年は新規絵を描いたら忘れずこちらにもアップしていきたいと思っています…… 一年間良い子だったらクリスマスの翌朝ツリーの下にプレゼントがあるんだってさ⭐️ #MDZS

🔞 wwx really wants to try anal, and while virginity is a construct anal fissures are not so he's very, very nervous about messing things up. His roommate lwj volunteers as a sex educator at the university's queer resource center, which is not something wwx has paid much attention to before.

TFORM is getting so dark, I'm afraid I'm going to get a cease and desist from Anish Kapoor.

I'm just posting this here for reasons. Fuck 🧊

Ooh it's Wednesday. WIP time! From chapter 4 of TFORM. You can read the first 3 chapters here: archiveofourown.org/works/710930... #WIPWednesday #Wangxian #MDZS

Y'all. It's coming together. It's all coming together. I've got STRUCTURE. THEMATIC TENSION. DRAMA. ROMANCE. TRAGEDY. AHH. There are no words. I'm just over the moon with how things are working out. Writing stories is literally the best thing. My favorite fucking thing. It's SO satisfying...

Is "purple" new slang I'm not privy to? Or old slang I'm not privy to? Also, what does it mean?

Halfway through chapter 4, and I'm here kicking my feet over my own fic like an idiot... Wangxian make me so happy...

Porn and erotica are important and societally valuable forms of speech, and the defense of them, in the face of state and church attempts at repression, is a necessary political act.

My worst fear when writing is, even though I'm getting all hyped up and excited writing a scene, the reader won't get the same vibe. 😩

Me: *anxiously trying to work on chapter 4 of TFORM, kinda wanting to take a break and watch TV, but knowing that if I do that, I'm probably done writing for the day* Laptop: *dies* Me: ... Alright, FINE. (Why isn't my laptop plugged in???)

Hi! SO, since LWJ is basically acting as the head of the Lan family at this point in my fic, but I'm making it more of a thing like it is with royalty, where the king is the king until he dies, even if he isn't doing the king stuff because he's too old and/or sick, WHAT IS HIS TITLE?

Me: Crap. How did I make Lan Wangji exactly the same in this fic as another one from like, 4 years ago? Also Me: Because they're literally the same character. Consistency is good. Also, Also Me: Shut up.

Consider for a moment, age gap, omegaverse #Wangxian #MDZS. Omega Wei Ying is 28, solidly a zillennial, and Alpha Lan Zhan is an elder millennial, pushing 40. They're @ self-checkout in the grocery store, and LZ is trying to pay, but no matter how many times he shoves his card into the chip reader,

What if, for absolutely no reason at all, Wangxian had sex in an IKEA?

Heyyyy! Please send me good vibes this week... Work is running me ragged. Luckily, I have Christmas off, but by then I'll have worked 7 days in a row. ☠️

This would be funnier if I didn't know that they were like, "Lol we're gonna tell them they're getting the Epstein files, but they're just gonna get pages and pages of black lines. 🤡"

you’re sure? you have the epstein files, and not 90% redacted information that doesn’t actually tell us anything?

Incredible. TFORM is officially my longest work in this fandom, and there's still soooo much more... 💀 (I did write a 33k Frozen fic in like, 2014, but none of you will EVER see that shit. You can just sit with the knowledge that I did that.)

REJOICE! CHAPTER THREE HAS BEEN BORN! archiveofourown.org/works/710930... #Wangxian #MDZS #TheUntamed #Fanfic

Oh, my god. CHAPTER THREE IS DONE! After almost two months... Sorry. Just gonna give it one more little look over when I get home, then I'll post! Huzzah!

I regret to inform you that, contrary to how I have written him in the past, "The Folly of Righteous Men" will *not* feature bisexual Wei Wuxian. He is gay. It *is* an important distinction. I swear I'm not trying to engage in bi erasure. It just works better for the story.

I don't think I will ever figure out the ideal way to refer to these specific characters throughout a fic. Referring to them by their full name over and over feels awkward, and mixing in alternative references feels forced... Using just their given name doesn't work either, so... idk what to do. 😭

are we still on about em dashes and ai. imo human writers should just use the em dashes even harder. we should be out here pummeling out those em dashes like we're emily dickinson

I have come to a realization. I have a passion for storytelling. Like... I've always loved to write. Fiction in particular has always been incredibly attractive. This form of creation is just so... beautiful to me.

Rewatching the Vampire Diaries and crying, empathizing particularly strongly with Tyler for SOME reason... "What's wrong with you, man?" "I don't know!" 😭

Oh, my god... Watching season 1 of The Vampire Diaries KNOWING what Damon is going through right now... Oh, Damon Salvatore... You truly are my favorite problematic broken boy 😭

Me after every social interaction

Fanfiction is such a unique medium for storytelling... Like, I can literally foreshadow future events and build suspense simply by using a particular character... because readers know who that character is and what they did in canon.

Feeling freaky. Might make a secondary AO3 account for some absolutely unhinged rpf featuring certain US politicians later... IDK.

the devil works fast but ao3 writers work faster

My brain is broken. Why am I thinking that Sam Winchester and Lucifer feel very Louis and Lestat? 😭😭😈

*sigh* So, I've been revisiting the CW horror fantasy series "Supernatural"... and while I was always a big Destiel fan, it took a couple of years of being involved in a BL-specific fandom for me to come to a VERY important[/s] conclusion upon this watch. Castiel tops. That's it.

I think my writer brain is dramatizing my IRL fears, and my anxiety is running with them until they snowball into catastrophizations and paranoia, AND I DO NOT CARE FOR IT.

Having a hard time. Can someone please tell me why I'm not a complete waste of oxygen?

Yo, so... Wtf happened to Ao3? The mobile site looks weird and I hate it. Is this temporary?

I need to yell about how Guillermo Del Toro's "Frankenstein" spoke directly to me as a queer disappointment to my parents.

Listen, I love Jiang Cheng as a character and foil for Wei Wuxian. I think their relationship dynamic is SUPER interesting, and I enjoy it very much. That said, every time I talk about JC's character arc, I'm reminded just how much I actually kind of despise him as a person.

How offensive would it be for there to be a version of WWX that doesn't have a crippling phobia of dogs?

Yanno, sometimes drafting out the beats of a chapter is like pulling teeth... Other times, though? I feel like a goddamn genius, because it comes so goddamn easy and even includes bonus ideas and details for future chapters that will make everything more cohesive and intriguing. Go me. 😎

So, chapter 2 is up.

Goddammit. I've been binging Brooklyn 99 and I think my Wei Wuxian has absorbed some Jake Peralta. Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool... No doubt...

Not gonna lie... I low-key love writing Angry Guy! Jiang Cheng...

Man, I wasn't actually expecting chapter 2 of FoRM to take over a month to finish... but I've been dealing with so much bullshit, guys. I literally had to fucking up and move house last minute. Again. 7 months after the last time I had to up and move house last minute. It's great.

Me, staring at what I have written of chapter two of FoRM:
