do you know when about bdubs stopped openly flirting with etho every 6 seconds? i havent watched mindcrack in like 10 years and never watched OOGE, but i see clips and i yearn for it to return. also i deeply wish cleo would tell ethubs what a "QPR" is i think it would be enrichment for my enclosure

This is a fantastic question honestly. I mean anything OOGE did was a nightmare on the flirting scale (bonus points for Etho sounds uncomfortable to the point of considering an early grave 💀) and then so was Fly Boys and even SOTF which was later down the line of mindcrack. I feel like the change was actually less in Bdubs than it was in Etho. I think the more confident Etho got, the more he stopped being an thing out of a fantasy novel and more of a real person, and Bdubs could settle into a friendship without trying to claim him every three seconds T-T

Additionally, I dont think the flirting ever actually stopped, I think it’s… better disguised. Or, not even disguised, differently manifested. After 14-odd years, there’s less need for the early ‘testing the waters’ jokes. Now that they know each other, dare I say they’re even more effective at flirting? I think almost everything they do can be interpreted as flirting (on BOTH sides. Being mean to each other… helping each other… i think importantly for bdubs *asking* for help is a huge thing for him…) And to your point Bdubs does less of the disgustingly blatant hand down etho’s pants bullshit, but he talks like he still WANTS to and really, isnt that an even more pure?

Tl;dr: Their relationship hasn’t changed as much in substance as it has in presentation.

oh hello there ethoslab looking so cool

I just read your “solstice” fic, and I’m genuinely so touched. I loved it more than words can describe. It genuinely means the world to me and I adore every bit of it. It’s hot and sad and beautiful and made me care so deeply for the characters. They were fun to read and compelling, and lovable, and I just truly adore this fic. I normally hate reading and can’t finish a long fic, but I binge read this one over the course of three days, loving every word. You truly did amazing.

Thank you so much for writing it. Thank you for sharing it. Thank you for rewriting and resharing it and allowing us to read it.

Thank you.

AH thank you so much, this means the world to me 🥺 i was a little scared of posting it because of the length, and i’m sure some people WILL be intimidated to see a 38k words long one shot, but people like you, who still give it a try and end up loving it, make it completely worth it. thank you for reading and leaving this lovely ask ❤️

didnt get any fic writing done today bc volleyball is back and i had to lock in

[15o516]

i didnt leave a comment because i wasn’t logged in but coincidentally i too was reading a fic of yours last night consider this your fifth comment

all the positivity on your works are SO SO deserved. once i finished the logic behind dating i realized you also made soulstice and cheered!!! 😭 your writing is so easy to fall into, and your characterization of all the hermits feels less a fanfiction and more as if it’s actually happened

AHHHH thank you thank you! i am very glad you find them easy to fall into, i am actively ripping my hair out while writing them trying to make sure they flow relatively smoothly, haha.

this is so nice i will be thinking about this all night and all day tomorrow, hehe

reddit post asking for fic recommendations of mlm ships. i look in the comments. my fic. god i love my life.

[15o516]

i had a sort-of vague idea of where the 2nd chapter of agnus dei would go BUT today just now while brushing my teeth i thought of something so genius oh my god im gonna ENJOY this

[15o516]

agnus dei; chapter one “all flesh rots”—7k, 2 planned chapters; vampirism, character death.

[15o516]

woke up to four new comments across my three fics and i was incredibly confused at this sudden spike of popularity in b written yaoi. love u to death guys, it was still a very confusing thing to wake up to

[15o516]

god saw an angel (me with three fics posted in less than a month) and shot me down (i have so much shit to do i dont even want to think of writing sth seriously, all im doing is just some pointless mindless shit drabbles)

[15o516]

whats the policy for i have 933 words of a ficlet that i wont post on ao3 because its too short for my standards but it genuinely feels complete and i want to just drop it be done with it. then what.

season seven etho

[15o516]

stalled writing my thesis by writing rpf but then i stalled writing rpf by cleaning my flat but then i stalled cleaning my flat by playing stardew valley but then i stalled playing stardew valley by doomscrolling tiktok, and guess what im doing rn. take a wild guess.

[mpregeminem]

sometimes rpf is just literally real

[15o516]

i think someone should write vampire au ethubs but make bdubs the vampire instead
