Fic prompts wanted

I'm still definitely not in a good writing headspace, but I WANT to write, so....

If you have small requests for characters/pairings I don't normally work with, let me know. So no Becky/Seth, but Becky/someone or Seth/someone would be fine, for example. Doesn't have to be sexual or romantic. It can be something random. My usual limits/restrictions apply; ask if you have questions!

Seven years after, I see you again 😚

[deiim]

the reason why your fandom has no more long, elaborate fics that read like a publish bestseller and less and less fics in general is bc people just do NOT interact with fics anymore in a meaningful context. like, comment people! even if just to comment a heart! all the fic authors will give up bc why would they write for n O ONE WHICH IS THE WAY IT SEEMS WHEN NO ONE COMMENTS

I finally updated Flames (AO3 and Wattpad). Apologies for the wait! I don't normally post about Flames here because it's pretty constant, but... yeah. I'm blanking on what happened in March, so I may skip forward to April/WrestleMania and fill in the blanks with bonus scenes later on if I get ideas.

[combatfaerie]

According to my AO3 stats email, the liv4brutality side of fandom is in reading mode again. (I should probably dust off the story I started during a long-ago NaNoWriMo and try finishing it.)

[combatfaerie]

The problem with a slice-of-life, mostly-current story like Flames is that when I fall behind, sometimes the little jokes or theories I put in for fun end up coming true and then I have to debate whether to keep it in the draft and have people go "No shit, we saw WrestleMania, you know".

(I'll probably keep the bit in just because I'm too lazy to edit it out.)

[combatfaerie]

I need to add I'm an adult in the same way a tomato is a fruit to my cross-stitch story prompt list, but I have no idea who it should be for.

3 and 12 music!

Thank you for the ask! Unfortunately I'm blanking on 12, probably because I want to learn ALL the languages.

So. "You Think You Know Her" by Cause & Effect for 3. This is very much my brother's type of music, so I'm sure I heard it at some point when I was younger, but I didn't remember it well. I mentioned it to him, and he doesn't remember it at all, though, so who knows? I've heard it on a few DJ streams, so maybe it's featured in some show and getting a revival.

A wrestling recap for 2025

I'm going to try to keep it positive, so in that vein, keep your tribalism away from my post. It's cool if you disagree with any of my opinions, but I'm not interested in "[this company] is better" bullshit.

I'm mostly glad WWE moved to Netflix in Canada. SportsNet had a bad habit of bumping wrestling whenever anything else was happening in sports, so it's nice to have a more stable schedule. I never had WWE Network, so I never got the PPVs/PLEs live. I used to get the DVDs from the library, but then WWE stopped releasing those. So having RAW, NXT, SD and the PLEs is a treat. (I just wish the archives were better.) The early start times for non-NA events can be awkward (sorry I didn't watch live, Australia, but 4 in the morning is too much for me), but most times it's like a little afternoon party.

I'm glad AEW Collision has a television home in Canada now. (No, I'm not one of those cool kids who "cut the cord"; I still have a cable package because I'm a dinosaur.) I tried to keep up with it online, but it could be difficult, so this makes it a lot easier. Sometimes we get a bit of the PPV pre-shows too, which is nice. (I'd prefer them without the Costco Guys, but maybe I'm in a minority on that.) I'm also happy about the women's tag team titles, even if I don't necessarily agree with who was in the finals.

I'm glad TNA moved to SportsNet in Canada. I know I was just complaining about SN above, but for some reason, Thursdays seem to be a night with less likelihood of being bumped. With SN+, there's the option to watch older episodes and they even have edited-down versions of some of the recent PPVs/PLEs. There are a lot of great wrestlers in TNA and I hope the SN deal (along with the AMC deal in the US) gets them a wider audience.

Honorary mention: A slight change in my cable plan gave me Fight Network, which has ROH Classics. It's been fun watching Kevin Steen, El Generico, Tyler Black, and many other familiar faces. Always neat to see how far some people have come—and wonder what happened to others. (And wonder how small their women's division was, because I think I've been watching episodes since July and I remember maybe FOUR women's matches. Yikes.)
