janiejanine replied to your post: Watching the X-Files on Netflix; love David Duchovny.
….That’s a brilliant idea. If those fics exist, I want to read all of them.
Haha thanks XD I kind of want to write it, and I know fuck all about writing fanfic, lol. But I love crossovers.
The trick to writing fanfic is… just to write fanfic.
Seriously.
All fanfic is idfic, written...

If you do a Loki redemption fic right, you get something rather like this:
Yo.

I’ll try and fit the coffee enema into a future installment. Don’t ever say I’m nothing if not obliging.

The modern Jotun's guide to heel-face turning.
In comments on ALIMoM, one of the things that comes up a lot — probably 100% unsurprisingly — is the likelihood that MCU!Loki will get some kind of at least nominal canon heel-face turn in the future. I mean, let’s face it: He pretty much sucks as a villain. When a good portion of the fandom appears to find you more sympathetic than your main rival, not even killing a beloved...

Gods, they hadn’t checked it. Hadn’t been down to the lab since she’d bought Luke back from the airport. It was just space noise, it’d either be there or it wouldn’t, and they were recording every minute of it anyway. No point being there just to be there. They were going to look at it tomorrow, her and Luke. Try and figure it out.

It was the eyes, she thought. Wide and astonished, blinking up at her behind thick-framed glasses and a curtain of messy dark hair. Well, that and the t-shirt. White text on black proclaiming that What Happens in the BLACK HOLE… …stays in the BLACK HOLE. There was a picture and everything.

They weren’t looking for aliens. Nowadays, no-one was. SETI had officially gone from quixotic dream to a terrifying liability six years ago, the day all of humanity had woken up to learn that, not only was it not alone, but that there were things out there that weren’t friendly. Not in the least.

Also, was I supposed tolike anyone in that film? Because I didn’t. (Coulson and Fury excepted. ♥)
I mean… at least Loki is supposed to be a jerkass (and was given a plot-based reason to be so). What the hell is everyone else’s excuse?
I sort of got the impression there was supposed to be a lot more, like, backstory stuff. But it’s not elaborated on, and so the sequence of...

[Fanfic: Avengers] Eight Months of Luke →
Shortly thereafter, you’re alone. So you pace your new cell, smaller than your old one. A porthole offers a view of the night sky, and you try not to look into its gaping black maw. There are things out there that look back. One day, they will find you. It will benefit you to have allies when they do.
This is… I guess what counts as slice-of-life fluff in the ALIMoM-verse?
So if you...

[Fanfic: Avengers] Epilogue 5/5
Your life is like unto a comedy of errors. That is, in the human definition of comedy which, near as you can ascertain, appears to primarily consist of unlikable simpletons making misery for themselves and everyone they encounter before somehow managing to walk away with all their hearts’ desire through no real effort of their own. Admittedly, you’re still working on the last part of your...

Spot-on essay Corbie linked to me earlier today and which I must share to all of you, for reasons I’m sure will be apparent.
It really is quite noticeable in fandom — which is primarily dominated, produced and consumed by woman — how popular the antagonist redemption story is. Much more so than it seems to be in mainstream culture. I think it’s...

[Fanfic: Avengers] Epilogue 4
Because you get things done quietly, and because you’re… you. Romanoff and Barton are too breakable if things go wrong. Stark can’t go anywhere or do anything without a busload of retainers, a pyrotechnics display, and a rock concert. S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn’t, to your (very extensive) knowledge, have anyone else on the books capable of dealing with Banner minus an entire attack squadron if he...

[Fanfic: Avengers] Epilogue 3
You spend a lot of time watching the humans scuttle around, bundled in gloves and scarves and mufflers. You don’t feel cold — not Earth cold, at any rate — and tend to forget to do things like put on coats or, occasionally, shoes when you leave you apartment for recreational strolling. This gets you odd looks when it occurs, and odder comments, but you’ve lived here several years now and many of...

Nonetheless, you’ve counted no less than three car rides, a helicopter and two plane trips in the intervening time, most of which you’ve spent musing over what you’ve missed in tonight’s episode of Game of Thrones. You’ll have to ask Coulson for a copy tomorrow — or maybe that’s today, you’re not quite sure of the time or the time zone — as BitTorrent is still an arcane science that eludes you...

Phwoar! Oldfic repost time!
This is the last chapter in the first act of my origfic series, * supposed former apocalypse junkie. You know, the one I’ve been “writing” for about the last ten years.
I made the mistake of actually re-reading this the other day — I have about the middle third of the book written — and… it was actually kinda… good? Maybe. IDK....

RH: Favourite scenes meme.
So over on AO3 during a conversation about favourite scenes in Rabbit Heart, pennies_for_eyes asked me something very interesting:
So, if it isn’t too much work on your part, would you be interested in picking something from each chapter you’d like to see drawn?
Self-interest aside (pennies/elfkin is an amazing artist, seriously you should check our eir dA account), I figured this...

Anonymous asked: Hello! So, I just got finished reading Rabbit Heart and I gotta say, it's probably my current favorite DAII fic. Everything just seems so perfect about it. Plus, tons and tons of Anders angst, which, in my opinion, is the best kind of angst. But I just have one tiny question! Is Carve going to make an appearance? Because I thought it had been hinted at, and I thought that maybe he was the...

Which is pretty amusing, when you consider the concept of “damnation” doesn’t exist anywhere in Thedas’ theology…

… feel free to look away.
Rabbit Heart had a lot of OCs. Like, a lot of them. Like “I started making a list but then it got too long so I gave up” a lot. And I know it’s a bit… “not done” in fanfic, but I have to confess I kinda, um. Well. I kinda like OCs when they’re used in a certain context.
One of the blessings and curses of writing fanfic is...

[Fanfic: DA2] Rabbit Heart 13
From the Estate to the Pit.
Something was actually going to happen in this chapter, then it didn’t. Two shot-fake showdowns, though; lulz Dee srsly stop it.
Definitely on the home stretch; two or maybe three chapter to go, including the Really Real Actual Climax I swear this time foa’srs.

OMG it’s been, what? Nearly half a year? Uurgh, bad Dee.
Anyway, I apologise for the huge delay followed by the paucity of this chapter; I’m pretty much 116.49% sure tedious OC exposition was not what you’ve been waiting for for all this time, though this is setting up the fic’s climax, I swear.
Er… yeah. Anyway. Next chapter we’re back to the boys, and...

Oh, and before you do anything else you absolutely must go check out this amazing piece of Black Beast art by Corbie. Seriously, go check it out right now because it’s awesome and heaps better than this chapter which will totally be here when you get back anyway. I promise.

[Fanfic: DA2] Rabbit Heart 9
The morning after, Anders finds himself in the unenviable position of being the responsible adult; Hawke reveals the Dark and Terrible (and Sexy) Secret of Fenris; and the trio make their way towards the Fortress of Ser Whatsit and the Order of the Unnecessary Badness.
Derp derp almost nothing happens here. Stupid filler chapter. Big thank you to anyone who’s managed to stick this story...

In caser anyone was paying attention, this is the chapter where the rating changed. Pretty much nothing of importance happens here, with the possible exception of some character exposition in the first thousand-odd words. You Have Been Warned.
Bonus material for this chapter!
Firstly, some bad sketches showing how Anders’ outfit works, just in case you were wondering. Secondly, since the...
