I wasn’t expecting to spend the entire day with my family, but it turned out nice. Oh, and we also saw Pacific Rim which is nice as well and very visually pleasing.
I don’t know shit about gif making but y’all’s funky little moving pictures be bringing me so much serotonin. They’re so pretty and then y’all notice these cool parallels in the shows and make gifs from them. And when y’all think of quotes and song lyrics that perfectly match characters/ships/scenes??? Iconic. And your gifs make me notice little details in the show that I didn’t always catch from watching it in real time or just let me relive some of my favorite scenes in a new and creative way. Anyway y’all are the best. Shoutout to the gif makers.
@sweet-s0rr0w and I had a hilarious conversation about the difficulty of making banners for people, and @maesterchill certainly came up. ice cubes. chill. get it? sigh.
MC is such a huge presence in the drarry fandom. she’s always reblogging and commenting here on tumblr with so much positivity. plus, she’s one of the mods for arguably one of the most popular fests in the fandom, HD-Wireless, which had its 85 author spots claimed within a few hours this year. I cannot imagine modding a fest on that scale and think that she and her fellow mod team deserve a huge round of applause for the feat!
random superlatives and recs:
prenatal class meet-cute for the win: My heart was far too glad // E // 22K // Drarry // double the mpreg, double the fun!!
squirting. choccy. knob: Eat Me // E // 11K // Drarry // MC masterfully writes Harry fellating a chocolate penis. at work. that he soon recognizes is modeled after Draco’s dick. I… I’m giving this a standing ovation.
the imagery of Harry gawping at Draco’s CK underwear ad in Piccadilly Square willstay with me all day: Every Day is Leg Day // E // 2K // Drarry // I should’ve known after reading her hand kink fic in January that I needed to seek out all other body part kink fics MC had written… my goodness. model Draco with legs for the days rocked my world.
mygod the artwork on this is blew my mind: oxygen// T // 4K & art //@onbeinganangelcreatedan embroidery rec for this one and you’re going to have to go read it because i exist only as a puddle on the floor after reading this fic.
no,seriously though, herart:Do you have a warrant? // M // Drarry //thechandelier. I love the drugs just casually in the background in this work, but Draco’s red eyes and teal pants are fire.
MC, I’m such a big fan! I’ve been loving your feedback on these posts, so a big thank you for that. I hope you’re having a great day.
for more info on mutuals march and/or to figure out why the hell I just wrote an ode to you, check out this post.
Oh! I was not expecting at all to be included in this and am feeling very emosh - thank you!!! I had a half written ask to you from a couple of days ago to say how utterly lovely Mutuals March is, such a lovely positive project, and whatever I did I managed to delete the bloody thing before sending it. And suddenly, pop, here you are, being so kind and reccy. Thank you so much, the ice cubes are perfect! I do not feel like have any kind of presence in fandom and feel like I’ve dropped off the face of planet Drarry recently (just because of work kicking my arse) so it’s comforting to know I’m still considered part of this lovely community. And thank you for the reminder I’m a mod, I’ve been very slack in that department lately, my co-mods have been carrying my slatternly carcass about for months. I will do better.
I’m constantly wowed by all the amazing talent in this fandom, including your good self @thebooktopus, and I’m honoured to be included in your March project alongside all these creators I admire. Sending you so much love
I just posted a new recfor@sorrybutblog’s delightful Cluefest fic but since today is her blog’s first anniversary I thought of making a short reclist with some of my favorite works. It’s been a pleasure to share this fandom with you, iota! I always look forward to reading your fics, no matter the plot I know they’ll all have those comforting, delicate, refreshing and organic vibes that pulls me right into that magical verse and makes me feel as if I’m watching two of my closest friends falling in love. I love the soothing and romantic slice-of-life atmosphere your writing creates, and how your dialogue gets me hooked just a few lines in. You’ve been one of my favourite authors to follow in the past year, and I can’t wait to see what comes next! Everyone should go check their new favourite comfort fics below:
Draco Malfoy has a car and Harry Potter is on the case! Featuring Muggle car repair, a road trip to Cornwall, and falling in love in a Ford Fiesta.
Postcards From Italy (E, 6k) - get together, clubbing, bath sex, perfect CMBYN aesthetics
A pool party, a nightclub, a bathtub. Draco Malfoy is the last person Harry expected to run into the summer before his third year of university, but he’s not complaining (at least not anymore).
Silver Linings (M, 21k) - 8th year, enemies to friends to lovers, secret relationship
Or: Harry’s gone back for eighth year at Hogwarts and nothing is quite the same, save his inability to leave Draco alone. But then he finds that Draco isn’t what he expected either, as they spend the month of December stuck in each other’s orbit.
Just as Draco Malfoy’s life seems to be getting back on track, the magic at Malfoy Manor is spinning out of control. Auror partners Harry Potter and Angelina Johnson are assigned to the case and quickly find that nothing about the situation is obvious. The flare ups are unpredictable at best, downright dangerous at worst, and why has a Hogwarts first year gone missing at the same time?
Harry really ought to listen to whatever Ron is saying, but it becomes impossible to focus when a familiar figure across the pub curls his fingers around another man’s tie. And when that man leans in with a wolfish smile, Harry sees red, and all he can think is mine.
Ahh thank you for the rec and for being kinkuary hero last year and betaing for me!! ❤❤❤❤
Soooooo! This drawing has nothing to do with star wars directly, but kinda!
We had a beautiful sunset last week and it inspired me to draw something. And this was it!
It is my version of a beautiful sunset/evening in @maybege beautiful fanfic series The One her writing is amazing and this is what i imagined the second latest chapter “the one with the flowers” to look like in the last parts.
I hope you like it, and to everyone who likes to read go read her stuff!
so i missed doing this last year because ✨mental illness✨ but we’re back! i feel weird about birthdays so i wanted to thank you guys for such a great year by putting together a list of fics that I’ve loved so y'all have some good stuff to read! i’ve mostly been reading oscar fic this year so the vast majority of fic on here is oscar fandom, though there are a few others. im sure this list is missing fantastic fics i read in the last 12 months but i’ve tried to compile the ones that have stuck with me and that i’ve gone back to! this is my gift to y’all for getting me to another birthday
if you like the stuff on this (unfortunately brief) list and think our taste lines up, feel free to check out my recommended tag (now featured!). i don’t have a lot of time to read these days but I reblog every fic that I finish so you might find something you like in there!
disclaimer: please note that some of the following accounts have dni statements. i adore them and would never want anyone to disrespect their boundaries so please be aware of who you are interacting with as you go through this list! thanks!
yeah yeah yeah mortifying ordeal of being known and all that but sometimes a friend mentions something about you that you didn’t think was noticeable and it feels like your heart is being cradled in their hands
Out of the blue, you hear your name spoken in a familiar voice. You turn and see the person that matches the voice pushing his way through the crowd.
You stare. “Dr. Grant?”
Standing in the middle of a dive bar in Michigan is Professor Steven Grant, wearing a black dress shirt and a name tag that’s completely redundant to you, considering you couldn’t forget him if you tried.
“Hiya,” he says, tipping his glass to you.

I’m just so happy you were able to figure this out in such a perfectly timed way that I’m having a meltdown at 9 am. Seriously, you’re UNBELIEVABLE.
This chapter was incredible!!! I was so excited to see 10k at the top only to devour like it was my job. HOW DO YOU DO THAT!!! HOW DO YOU MAKE IT FLOW SO SMOOTHLY AND EASILY!!
You’re so GOOD. I am so happy you were able to figure this one out, you’re incredible and this fic is incredible too

Alright time to burst this is so good I really enjoyed it. The reader just being like ‘yeah I understand it’s ok’ also hit different and Marc wth why did he think it was a good idea to appear out of no where too like bruh poor Steven just spiraling. He makes a good point to say that she was drunk so not a good idea but that just means that next time she could do some convincing
okay so the thing that must be understood about this version of Marc is that he genuinely means well he rly showed up in the mirror with the intention to help Steven calm down and then did the exact opposite! like Marc, babe, you gotta learn that appearing in mirrors like the Ghost of Christmas Past is a liiiiiittle unsettling
(also…she only took two tiny sips of alcohol, she wasn’t drunk and little miss mess knew what she was doing!)
thank you so much @bamposworld!! your support for this series rly means the world
You dig your fingers into his side and hit a bruise. His hips jerk against you and he groans; you can’t tell if it’s a noise of pain or pleasure.
“I knew you were a glutton for punishment,” you quip, trying not to sound breathless, “but I didn’t realize it went this far.”
“Again,” he gasps, and that answers the question of pain or pleasure. “More.”

A/N:2021 is redeemed by the Daredevil fandom arising from the deep like a goddamn kraken. I wrote the first draft of this months ago, inspired by a post from @pastafossa (the Great and Powerful, to whom I bow down as the Queen of Matt), and [SPOILERS] finally inspired me finish it <3
i would just like to remind everyone that it is entirely @letterfromvienna ’s fault that i am like this about matt murdock and if you haven’t checked out her matt murdock fics i highly recommend them
in this terrifying world you continuously have the power to offer someone else a little relief . why would you withhold that. do you remember what a little relief feels like? it feels like a lot

Holy shit, the memories! Guys, this was actually the first video game I ever owned! I played the hell out of it as a kid! Thanks for the memories, OP! <3 I’m going to see if I can find it in my room now. I haven’t played it in a while. Oh, man.
As a few of you may remember, I recently spoke about getting a job as a feature writer for Screen Rant. This is my third article, but first I’m sharing on here. It would mean so much to me if you checked it out! You can head to my author page too if you wanted to read my other articles. :)
I wrote this one about my beloved Maxwell Lord (& the ugly reality of American consumerism). It’s one of the more analytical pieces I’ve done and I’m really proud of it! You can read it here:
Anyways I hope everyone is having a great day! I’m currently on vacation in Scotland — and I’m off to a concert tomorrow night which I’m super excited for.

Holy shit congratulations!!! Agree maxie was never the villain or even antagonist by all definitions.
Some days you’ve just done too much and the writing won’t come and it’s hard but you have to forgive yourself. You haven’t lost it, the spark is still there, you need rest too.
