❌ Does this ship make any sense whatsoever by any reasonable metric
✅ Does the thought of these characters standing next to each other make you want to chew concrete and then break apart a nearby automobile with your bare hands
#FASCINATING acting choices from wentworth here #like you see len register that there’s someone behind him and he’s instantly wary #then he realizes it’s barry and not some other enemy and he’s still defensive but… confused? #there’s the realization that something has shifted in order for barry to seek him out in civvies like this #he’s wary and suspicious but also intrigued. weighing up his options. because the rules of the game have changed and he doesn’t know why #but then he decides to play. and you see him smile and then pull out the cold persona #with just a hint of a real smile before the smirk comes out #FASCINATING. wentworth miller the man that you are #im eating this performance with a spoon
#lisa has clearly heard a lot about the pretty boy in red#probably too much in her opinion#look at that smirk when she gets a good look at barry#like ‘oh he’s got an attitude problem and he looks good in leather’#len’s ideal man (via @achangeinpriorities)
Thank you so much for asking! I love these things!
5. first sentence of the fifth paragraph of an unpublished WIP
OMG, this is terrible. I chose the WIP that's currently open in Ellipsus that I've worked on most recently, and paragraph five is just one sentence.
Leonard died.
6. the word that appears the most in your current draft
ignoring names, which are the highest used words in my draft, it looks like the highest one is 'back.' That's interesting--I'm pretty sure it's Leonard being back, not the actual body part.
11. a WIP you’d like to finish someday
RESONANCE. I'm crying because people are putting 'abandoned' bookmarks on it and I can't even argue with them. I promise it's not abandoned! I just suck! I have such big plans for it and it's overwhelming sometimes. It is the ghost I carry piggyback with me wherever I go.
26. are you able to write with other people around?
Yes, actually! I have a roommate that for some reason likes to spend time with me, so I'll write and they'll watch Youtube Shorts on their phone or something. I do need to have music on in my headphones to focus in those kinds of situations, though. Sometimes a change in scenery will do me good, so I've also written in parks and coffee shops.
i love coldflash because logically both of them would freak out and immediately regret that spontaneous hookup (which they knew was a bad idea at the time, but beforehand it was a bad idea (sexy!), and afterwards it was a bad idea (jesus christ))
but the consequences of that freak out and how much it tanks them depends entirely on which one of them freaks out first
like, if len does, then he’s going to shut down and get flippant and try to leave immediately, which is going to make barry feel stupid and naive and used (the thing he’s sensitive about) and now he’s getting defensive and angry, and the entire situation devolves into barry making snappy accusations and len shutting down even further and walking out with no intention of ever touching that can of worms again
but if barry freaks out first, he starts making excuses and rambling and tripping on his own jeans as he tries to get his clothes back on and head for the exit at the same time, and that completely derails down len’s own pending freak out, because he’s a man with a one-track mind, and barry disheveled and backing toward the door just set off his prey drive
no one is leaving that situation with their pride intact enough to bail out because len is pinning barry up against the wall for round two and barry forgets every reason he shouldn’t let him as soon as he does
this is by far the more catastrophic situation btw because barry getting even a little bit invested increases the chances of len hitting his cut-and-run point in the future and causing option 1 to execute instead. except it also gives barry the leverage to ignore len’s freak out and be like “oh okay you’re a ~villain ~ again, got it. well, i’m gonna take a nap. so text me whenever you’re done with… whatever this is, and want me to blow you again” and len is extremely cranky about it. but he does
I can't believe it's nearly the end of January! I have too much to do for the year to be going so fast already.
@coldflasher and I are going to discuss what Coldflash events we're going to have this year, but I definitely want to hold the Fic Exchange again, it was so fun!
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Here are the dates and rules for the Exchange.
I've also opened the sign ups early!
We will keep you up to date on what other events we're going to have as soon as we know! <3
you can feel the moment in a tv show when a woman who was an independent character suddenly becomes a love interest. its like shackle locking onto her ankle.
they made many terrible character choices after season one of the flash (ie making barry less bitchy and less nerdy, his two most beautiful traits) but truly the only good choice they made was recognizing the chemistry between carlos valdes and tom cavanagh and then kept inventing new versions of harrison wells for cisco to have sexual tension with. that was allyship
