she/her. 30+. minors dni. fanfic veteran, back after 12+ years a03: CrisisReturns

[crisislady]

About Me / Intro post

since I have followers! wild. gosh, hello. hi.

You may call me Crisis, crisislady, CrisisReturns, or any variation on that. she/her pronouns.

about me

30-something woman with a job (and freelance editing gigs).

my favorite colors are green, brown, and burgundy.

xanga & livejournal veteran / gaiaonline roleplay forum champion / fanfiction dot net veteran / 2010s tumblr veteran / basically qualified for a fandom AARP card at this point.

I started writing fanfiction again last year after taking a 12-13 year hiatus. I used to be v involved in fanfic spaces a million years ago and tbh I hope that time is lost to the dust in the wind

I am a published author. shocking I know. but I am here to have fun and learn to love writing for myself again after years of burnout, the publishing churn, and failure, lol.

my writing styles / things I like to write

my ao3 is CrisisReturns

I love love looveeee love writing goofy romcom fluff

and also unhinged smut. I contain multitudes

emphasis on goofy silly stuff. I love writing comedic interactions and think humor is sorely underrated in current fanfic writing

I love dialogue! and introspection! and observing things!

I do enjoy angst but I don't dwell in it for too long. not really a "whumper" or w/e the youth are calling it

I do have a tendency to hyperfixate and abandon projects. I try not to but it happens lol. usually it's because of life getting in the way or i got too excited on a project and lost steam.

I am fairly new to 'x reader' fanfics - I spent years writing AUs, one-shots, and even OC fics, but I am enjoying it! I find writing in second person POV a lot of fun and challenging in the best way.

fandoms/properties I am currently into/enjoy

Peacemaker / Superman, the new DCU, and lots of old JLU/DC cartoons. BTAS is my favorite cartoon of all time.

some Marvel (mostly X-Men bc I grew up w/ those comics and cartoons - I haven't rly kept up with the MCU post Endgame but I did like the new F4 movie...say that again....)

Date Everything (though my interest has waned due to the game crashing multiple times on my Switch, so technically I haven't finished the game lol)

LOTR/The Hobbit, Dune (I've read the first 3 books in original series, watched the Lynch/Villeneuve films), The Hunger Games/TBOSAS/SOTR, and then a buncha other books

Video games: Stardew Valley, Persona, Pokemon, Fire Emblem

uhhhhhh I like lots of stuff but I limit my fandom participation these days bc of my emotional and mental bandwidth

[crisislady]

alive, again

ok I am back for real this time. sorry sometimes my extreme depression and lack of desire to engage in my favorite media takes over my life. but hopefully i can get my shit together and write stuff again

[crisislady]

back to your regularly scheduled programming

hi all,

I am alive! I am so sorry, I didn't mean to disappear for so long. I got kinda depressed about my life and writing and work, but things are on the up and up again. could never abandon tumblr again after so long. I promise to finish my Economos fics cause I have a few new hyperfixations (BG3, DA:I) that I want to write stuff for!

anyway so yeah!

[crisislady]

hi babe! just wanted to say that i hope you’re still alive 😂😂 but truly i hope everything is alright with you and looking forward for your eventual return!!

hi!

I am alive! I just kinda had a casual 'everything I do is stupid and bad and why can't my hyperfixations just stay put' for a few months. and life stuff. mostly life stuff.

[crisislady]

I lived

I did it. I survived the busiest season of work

fanfics & x reader inserts on their way

happy 2 be back ❤️🫡😭

[crisislady]

yes I’m still Alive (again)

I should preface this by saying that I’m soooooooooo thankful people like the little reader fanfics I write (esp my John fics ❤️) and I feel so genuinely awful that I’m taking this long to publish new stuff for my beloved peacemaker fans esp now that we don’t really know where the show or characters are heading after that finale

but in the last few days I’ve gotten a lot of anon dms demanding stuff…

I have said multiple times I haven’t forgotten I’m just Really Busy with my Day Job and literally pulling 10-12 hour days on top of weekends 😭

anyway im still here! I still have fics and ideas and blorbos for my beloved hyperfixations!

[crisislady]

I don’t think people talk about or enough how good economos looked in suicide squad even if he barely had screen time 😭

Right?????

he looked good even in the post credits scene of that shitty Shazam movie too, I feel u

[crisislady]

anyway I really miss peacemaker thursdays and being Online with You All

while I definitely have my Problems™️ with how peacemaker season 2 ended, I hate that it’s in some sort of bardo situation until we…find out? Eventually? Maybe in Man of Tomorrow? Or a spin off a la Checkmate?

idk how you og fans waited 3 fucking years it’s been over a week and I want to gnaw my arm off like a trapped animal

[crisislady]

yes I am still alive

did an outdoor event for my job….and I got a horrible sunburn on my nose and chin……free me……I’m so tired…..

[sleepingbeautiiies]

no one:

absolutely no one:

my brain 24/7: JULIAN, ITS A HUNGRY WORLD. THEYRE GONNA EAT YOU ALIVE SON, YEAH. OH, JULIAN, WHEN THEIR FANGS SINK IN. I’LL STICH YOU BUT THEN I GOTTA THROW YOU BACK IN, OHHH. YOU JUST TRY AND SLEEP, EVEN THOUGH YOURE ALONE. YOU JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES BOY, AND DREAM OF HOME. AND LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON, YOU JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND. WHEN YOU WAKE IN THE MORNING, YOU’LL BE SATISFIED. CAUSE THERE IS ALWAYS A WRONG TO YOUR RIGHT. AND THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A WAR SOMEWHERE TO FIGHT. AND GOD KNOWS IVE HAD SOME ROUGH FUCKING YEARS. OH OH LORD OH LORD KEEP ON KEEPING ON

[crisislady]

please please take your time to work on your fics bc they're so so good but i'm going feral at the thought of another economos fic

there are 2 fics forthcoming

the metahuman reader and the hacker one. the metahuman one should be done...shortly....i swear...i am not edging y'all

thanks for your patience, lovely anon. i am getting my ass kicked by my day job since it's the busiest time of year for my line of work. and i am working every saturday (and some sundays) until late nov/early dec. and i get home and im tired and screen bad and then i get depressed about my writing for 3000 years LOL

tl;dr: fics are forthcoming!! i have not given up on our tall bearded anxious man <333333 there's plenty of fuel in the tank for peacemaker fics baybeee

[crisislady]

honestly? missed opportunity to not include Peacemaker's mom and/or Gut Chase, Adrian's older brother, in season 2 to further highlight the theme of complicated family relationships for both Chris and Adrian. like where the fuck is his mom? we know she's dead in the earth-x dimension but it's never stated in season 1/2 if she's alive or dead in their actual world.

and with Gut, we could have really delved into WHY Adrian looks up to Chris so much. even if it's just a flashback. something.

James Gunn when i get my hands around your neck-

[crisislady]

i just think it would be really funny if Adrian still lived at home in his mom's basement even with his new big boy job at Checkmate. or still does his busboy shifts at fennel fields. some dudes just fail upwards in life

so does this mean no john fic? :(

they're both coming!!!

i just literally rewrote a whole section because i fucking hated where it was going and i am unfortunately a perfectionist. i am hoping for a weekend publication <3

[crisislady]

did u see at the end of ep8 after the credits theres a clip of john saying more jokes to distract people and someone laughed and omg his face as just soo ahh i need someone to make a gif of it asap

yes!!! what a goof ball. I almost wish it was kept in the show :''')

[twodimensionalboyfriend]

obsessed w economos constantly telling everyone that he has anxiety and is such a little bitch and that “making eye contact is an act of heroism” is insane when you realize he will verbally destroy anybody he hates enough, walked into enemy territory to drop a package, and has killed a gorilla with a chainsaw

[userdrama]

They!
