the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be a part of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.
They’re so lucky I care abt them deeply coz drawing 4 ppl in once canvas was h e l l.
Anyways, small drabble under read more coz I did originally want to write for this prompt but didn’t have the time unfortunately 😞 so a snippet of what I originally intended xP

“You can say you were worried about me Barko. In fact I’m flattered you—“
“Jesus christ, just fucking take this and shut the fuck up already!”
Hank doesn’t want to shut the fuck up. In fact he’s thinking 10 more different things to say to fluster Gary further. It’s way too fucking easy to do and—
“Wait. What is this?” Hank whispers, all mirth gone from his voice and soon anymore words are gone too, effectively giving Gary what he wants. Hank shutting the fuck up.
But of course, pleasing the fake blond is never easy. “Wh-what? Did you go fucking blind too?” Gary stutters out, that familiar edge coming out of him, but Hank can only focus on the picture in his hands.
Hank knows he should say something. Gary is never good when people don’t fall for his bait, but how can he when he’s holding a photo of—
“I swear to god if you go silent again. It’s just a goddamn photo of you and your best fucking friends. The muskaqueers or whatever you assholes call yourselves.”
It’s the Musketeers, you dick. Hank wants to say, but he doesn’t. After all, in his hand is a photo of him and the Musketeers. Pete has Hank in a sort of chokehold and his fellow brother in arms, Ray, is ruffling Hank’s hair. Art was no help back then and instead laughed at Hank’s plight so he was left alone to deal with his friends and get them off him.
They’re all smiling brightly. A shine in their eyes.
“…I took it at the party. You guys were being noisy ass shit and— uh—“ Gary’s rambling knocks Hank back into his senses as he continues talking, “I had my camera and—“
“Yeah, well it’s a good fucking photo. Man…” Hank interrupts him causing both of them to fall silent. Words somehow gone been two fuckers who have too much shit too say, yet the air remains thick. “Thank you, Gary.” Hank finally says, looking up at Gary who turns his head away immediately, cheeks flushed red.
“Yeah, well— Never say I didn’t do nothing for ya’.” Gary pauses, “But you’re welcome...” It’ s quick and rushed out and Gary looks like he wants to leave, but even so, Hank can’t help but feel as if we can still hear the laughter just by looking at this photo. As if somehow Barkovitch has managed to capture the joy of him and his best-fucking-friends in one photo.
i literally think about you every day i know you've been a stolson warrior since day 1 and im so freaking sorry that stolson is gaining popularity after you've kinda left the fandom 😭😭😭
omg don't even worry it's lowkey all good 😭 I'm just happy that there's an audience for the ship now and that when I eventually hyperfixate on it again, I'll have a bunch of stuff to look back at HAHA
I still get posts about tlw on my Tumblr feed frequently so I'm still sorta in the loop, but not a whole ton. nonetheless I still enjoy seeing content about them :)
(sorry it took me to long to get back to this btw 🙏)
“I want to write a fic about this but I don’t think anybody will be interested in it” ummm hello excuse me ma’am what do you mean you don’t think anybody will be interested in it??? YOU. YOU ARE INTERESTED IN IT???? write it because YOU are interested in it and YOU want to write about it. fanfic writing should always be first and foremost about YOUR enjoyment, not other people’s.
Rewatched The Long Walk last week and realised I never did any art for it back when it came out in September 😫 so I locked in and over the last week got drawing ✌️😌
No one asked for this except me as I am still very fond of the film
More barko doodles please and thank u? Perhaps even harkovich? Just any tlw i love ur art >w<
I <3 Barkness/Harkovitch
I think they would be very good friends (and even more) and would bond over creative projects/even work together!! However in the early stages Barko was ofc difficult to work with/sit down for a conversation so Harkness would bribe him with food to imbibe him but as it turns out Gary does like talking to him. Yapper x Yapper !!!
+ Also i’ll do better next time, but I think Richie would be quite fashionable in a modern au <3
annnnddd a Barko wip. Was gonna stay just a doodle, but I started working on it and i kiiinda wanna continue working on it a little more so a sneak peek for now <3
