#heartsky is so lovely and way better than "the bad place". I was going to post something about how dumb it is to bully fic authors over a creative work of fiction, but I can honestly say I've never seen it happen here. If you don't understand how fic and fandoms work, log off. some people suck.

In case any #heartsky fans are interested, I made a fic reading challenge bingo card! Feel free to use and share!

Rather than doing anything productive, this afternoon I decided to code a fake website on AO3 for a fake agony aunt who may or may not just be Charlie Spring writing for a shitty tabloid. Because #heartsky plot bunnies hit when they hit.

I’ve got a WIP list on the go, but how about a completed fic list? I’ve omitted drabbles, prompt fics and random little vignettes, but otherwise here are all my completed #heartsky fics!

#AO3 has reached 10 million registered users! Celebrate with us by participating in our commenting themed bingo at otw-news.org/yckpz294

A new #heartsky fic I’ve been sitting on! Curses Charlie Spring, freshly heartbroken and feeling cosmically unlucky in love, visits a psychic after Isaac buys him a ticket. Unfortunately, her predictions have him swearing off love for good. Enter, Nick Nelson archiveofourown.org/works/77846176

A new #heartsky fic from me! I’ve been working on this one for a while and now I’ve got 50k+ written it felt safe to start posting! Poison Rain On A Tin Roof Nick and his Papa are convinced that they're the last humans alive. Until a strange boy stumbles into their clearing.

This one is now complete! I’m dedicating January to trying to knock out some WIPs while quietly getting on with some unpublished fics that I’m now allowed to post until this list gets smaller 🤣

A new #heartsky fic collection went live today, focussing on Felix! There are thirteen fics altogether and our aim to offer a little bit of love and representation to our disabled HS community! archiveofourown.org/collections/...

Who fancies some #heartsky Christmas fic and series recs? I’ll add to this thread as things get added because otherwise I’ll feel bad for leaving someone out.

Okay so I’ve become a bit obsessed with making covers for my #heartsky fics. So here they all are, with links

I asked a question on discord (what would the cover art of your fics look like if they were published novels) and was so inspired by the responses that I made a couple of my own 🤭 #heartsky

I don’t understand the premise of Traitors and at this point I’m too afraid to ask

This one seems to have resurfaced so thought I’d share! Very unseasonal when I wrote it in August 2024, but it fits the Halloween vibes! #heartsky archiveofourown.org/works/58450468

Two months later, I finally updated. archiveofourown.org/works/557277...

This one is now complete too! 100 drabble chapters that I think have ended up being both the weirdest and hottest thing I’ve ever written??

This one is now complete! 100 drabble chapters. archiveofourown.org/works/66526414

If anyone fancies a playable DnD/ #heartsky mash up featuring some questionable fantasy maps and some coding that gave me a migraine… Act 1 of a new CYOA fic is up! Unrated, but there will be some E rated scenes in the mix eventually depending on your choices! archiveofourown.org/works/654314...

I’ve just had my angstiest plot bunny yet so brace yourselves #heartsky

I’ve seen some comments from readers giving writers flack for WIPs recently… and because I don’t like being told what to do I’m going to share all of my current #heartsky WIPs! (Caveat: I may have a problem)

alling all #heartsky drabble writers! We’ve set up socials to try and highlight the little pockets of 100-word joy (or angst) in our fandom! Please give @hsdrabbles.bsky.social a follow and if you’d like an invite to the server to submit your own drabbles to the feed, let me know!!

Happy birthday @twobeathearts.bsky.social! I hope you enjoy the first in this little vignette fic inspired by one of your plot bunnies! archiveofourown.org/works/68560696

This one is now complete! #heartsky archiveofourown.org/works/546973... Still a few chapters to go on Nick’s POV version but Charlie’s can now be read in its entirety.

I loved this creepy little #heartsky drabble series by HappySappyHippo! Heed the warnings but they’re a fun little exploration of characters’ dark sides! archiveofourown.org/series/4962941

I’m halfway through one 100 chapter drabble fic and a third of the way through another. That’s about time to start two completely different genre ones, right? #heartsky

Exactly one million words! Made sure this chapter of The Loneliness Company was dead on! #heartsky archiveofourown.org/works/648151...

Just sent a chapter to beta that will take my AO3 word count to exactly 1,000,000 words 🤯

Some #heartsky birthday fics I’ve written recently. I’ve been trying to write as many as I can for our discord community (life, work and baby permitting!)

Someone on Discord was asking for angst recs so I thought I’d share mine here too. Various levels of completion, all N&C. #heartsky

I’d say that one day I’ll remember to tag #heartsky but we all know that’s a lie

I’ve had great fun with workskins this year. Thought I’d put them all here.

I've now got two stories posting daily, #heartsky, because I like to make my life difficult. 100 word chapters, EtL silly fic about Nick & Charlie meeting during community service archiveofourown.org/works/66526414

This feels a bit surreal, ngl

My bite-sized chapter serial-killer-Stéphane fic is now up to 12 chapters and posting daily! if you enjoy a mini burst of angst over breakfast, it's here: archiveofourown.org/works/658899... #heartsky

Finally replaced my iPhone 7 and now I don’t have to go back and edit every single word I type

Remember when I said 'Oh I'll probably post this fic in the run up to Halloween'? #heartsky

It’s a good thing I’ve finished another chapter of evacuee!narlie and android!Charlie because I’m about to be lost to hyper focus over serial killer Stéphane for a week

Playing around with an idea for a future fic that will be told in narrative, police interview transcripts and podcast episodes #heartsky

Oh go on, then

Creeping ever closer to this fic being finished. One more chapter and an epilogue to go before I’ve finished the fic that one commenter stated had ‘the saddest threesome they’d ever read’ /pos #heartsky archiveofourown.org/works/546973...

Someone commenting that they hope I don’t abandon a fic 36 minutes after I posted an update (*on* the update itself) is a new record even for AO3 guest comments, surely. #heartsky

Posted chapter 2 of my android!Charlie fic and Charlie enters the scene (albeit as an AI chatbot) #heartsky archiveofourown.org/works/648151...

Boosting this again bc we’re SO CLOSE

Posted chapter two of my evacuee!Narlie fic earlier! #heartsky archiveofourown.org/works/648320...

Anyone who donates and would like a thank you drabble from me, feel free to send me a message with a prompt and your AO3 name (if you have one!) and I’ll gift you one!

I made a GoFundMe to help pay for a new wheelchair due to my current one being too big and damaged. Every donation, no matter how small, is very much appreciated so please consider clicking the link below to donate or share it with others. Thank you! gofund.me/2057231b

Finishing two long fics recently (Toil Agape Sozo & My Nick) means *obviously* I now have room for two more WIPS. Hit post a bit early on the prologues of my next two long fics because I need the dopamine. #heartsky

I posted the final chapter of My Nick, Untold today and now I feel a bit lost! #heartsky archiveofourown.org/works/576931...

A little #heartsky 5+1 from me for @raanne.bsky.social where every chapter is a double drabble of exactly 200 words! 5 times no one cared about Nick's new tattoo and the 1 time someone did. archiveofourown.org/works/654220...
