first 10 lines

Rule: List the first line of your last 10 fics (posted or WIP) and see if there's a pattern. If you don't have 10 fics, then as many first lines as you do have!

Thanks @mitchmatchedsocks for the tag! I’m dreading this because I usually hate my first lines. Let’s see if hating my first lines IS the pattern to notice here lol

“The tiger drops her catch at the mouth of the cave.” — Of want and hunger (of women and tigers), (fandom: Nghi Vo’s Singing Hills cycle, ship: Trung Dieu x Ho Thi Thao), f/f, explicit, canon-compliant but very self indulgent.

“A little distraction has always been a welcome palliative in high-stakes situations for Ilya.“ — so much of the living, love, is the being (un)known, (fandom: Heated Rivalry, ship: Hollanov), m/m, missing moments, 5 + 1 things

“A loud, intermittent beeping suddenly cut through the suspended state of semi-consciousness.” — Last Order, (fandom: Dragon Ball Z, ship: Raditz x Vegeta), m/m, explicit, knight x prince dynamic

“The smell of ginger chicken hits him all the way across the empty hallway when Megumi gets back from work that night, and only gets stronger the closer he walks to the door to his apartment, slightly dragging his feet from exhaustion.” — Homecoming (fandom: Jujutsu Kaisen, ship: TodoItaFushi), m/m/m, explicit, domestic bliss

“The innocent yet contrite resort staff apologises profusely, fussing and fanning around them in nervous excitement.” — Bed and Board (fandom: Jujutsu Kaisen, ship: TodoIta), m/m, explicit (KINKY!), fwb

“ "… anka! Zanka! Can you hear me?" “ — Homeostasis (fandom: Gachiakuta, ship: EnZan), m/m, explicit, fuck or die

“Yuuji had every good intention of being the perfect house guest.” — If You’re Gonna Do Something Stupid, I’d Rather You Do It In The House (fandom: Jujutsu Kaisen, ship: ItaFushi), m/m, teen audiences and up, domestic mortification and cringe

“”Come on, darling, arch your back a little for me," Mei Mei purrs from behind her phone, as if Utahime needed to be reminded she's not really pushing her chest out for Mei Mei.” — Director of Photography (fandom: Jujutsu Kaisen, ship: UtaMei) f/f, explicit, exhibitionism, dirty talk & mommy kink

“ "You two look grotesque," Junpei can't help but say, stepping aside to let the two hulking men awkwardly shuffle in through the door of his cramped, candle-lit apartment.” — Splatter Horror (fandom: Jujutsu Kaisen, ship: TodoItaJun) m/m/m, explicit, Halloween fic

“ Being a vessel for the King of Curses himself inevitably came with its array of predictable inconveniences - which was putting it in very mild terms.” — Helping Hand (fandom: Jujutsu Kaisen, ships: Yuuji x everyone), explicit, crack treated seriously, sex comedy

I’m noticing I’m either providing context or jumping straight in the middle of action and there’s no in between lol. Idk, seems like I need to work on my first lines. (The other thing I’m noticing is that I have incredible range 😎)

Also: 1 through 5 are the most recent ones and they have all been horrendously overlooked (probably because they’re kinda niche), so if they’re up your alley come give them a look! (and maybe drop some kudos and a comment, I could use some feedback to fight off writer’s block 🙏)

ur todoitafushi fic actually made me ascend holy shit its so GOOD

I don’t wanna sound like I’m tooting my own horn too much but: RIGHT? I have been sitting on that one for so long I thought I was never gonna make it work so I’m pretty happy that I did. I’m a bit disappointed by the lack of reactions to it tbh, I thought it was going to have an audience of more than three people but alas. It’s still the three of us again. It’s not the party I was hoping for but at least we’re in good company 🤝

(the link to the fic in question for anyone who’s curious)

[darkimaginativeplace]

came from ur enzn fic... more please you're so talented

Damn;; thanks;;;

I actually (finally) had an idea for a possible sequel to Homoeostasis that (a handful of) people have been asking for. I just need to sit on it for a while and come up with a compelling enough concept to pull it off and I might write it at some point.

"The Last Order"

Rating: Explicit Archive Warning: Graphic Depictions Of Violence Category: M/M Fandom: Dragon Ball Z Relationship: Raditz/Vegeta (Dragon Ball) Characters: Raditz (Dragon Ball), Vegeta (Dragon Ball) Additional Tags: Missing Scene, Gay Sex, knight x prince dynamic, loyal dog x master dynamic, Rimming, Oral Sex, Rough Sex, Biting, Mild Blood, Blood As Lube, Food Sex, Power Dynamics, Power Imbalance, Power Play, Power Bottom, Angst, Nipple Play, Body Worship, Ass to Mouth, Creampie, Anal Sex

Summary:

"It's an order, Raditz," Vegeta said, his voice hard and terse. His aura grew so sharp it froze the blood in Raditz's veins, chilling him to his bones. "You will go to Earth and bring Kakarot back to me. Dare to disappoint me in any way and I swear on my pride as a saiyan it will be the last order you'll get from me." Raditz understood from his stony gaze that he had no choice but to obey. He'd been a fool to think that the loyalty that was obsessively requested of him would be enough to truly satisfy the yawning dread inside Vegeta. After all, royalty or not, they were both caged animals lashing at each other. In the Prince's heart there was no space for anyone other than himself and the pride he sought to maintain. Raditz had to bite his tongue and bow his head in defeat. He would submit or die, that was the choice that he'd been afforded to him. "I will do as you command, my Prince," he said. Vegeta had no way of knowing that, for Raditz, that would truly be his final, fatal order.

In which Vegeta needs to reassert himself as Prince and Raditz proves himself a loyal dog for him.

Homecoming

by scribblescribbles "He's in quite a mood, isn't he?" Aoi asks, leaning in close to his ear. "Looks like it," Yuuji manages. "Mmh." Aoi slowly slides his pants all the way down below his ass, appreciatively copping a feel of his bare cheek in that easy, proprietary way that makes Yuuji want to arch his back into the touch. He feels so exposed. He feels before he sees Megumi's eyes on him, sultry and clearly interested. Appraising. It arouses Yuuji's interest in turn, finally catching on. Aoi's voice is low and smoky when he whisper conspiratorially to him: "What are we going to do about that?" Yuuji feels his dick perk up in anticipation. Megumi comes home late and has his two boyfriends help him unwind after a long, gruelling day at work.

Oh look, it’s my fic!

[sarcasticsciencefictionwriter]

"I sort fics by kudos and only kudos on stories with high kudos counts, why aren't there more stories with high kudos, I ran out of things to read." You're part of the problem.

"Authors artificially inflate comment counts by thanking people, I can't find anything with a real comment count to read." No they fucking are not, they're grateful for engagement.

"I can't read anything under 100k." That's the majority of fics you're ignoring, most novels aren't even that long.

"I don't have time to look for the incredibly rare diamond in the rough, so I won't read anything below a certain amount of kudos, comments, and hits." Those fics are popular because people gave them a chance and then snobs like you found them.

"I won't read anthing with a single typos." You made typos in that sentence, get off your high horse.

"One singular author didn't thank me for commenting, I'm never commenting on any fic again so I don't get burned." You're punishing people because someone didn't give you engagement they don't owe you that they might not have seen.

"This fic is three months old, it's so old, it doesn't matter if I comment or kudos, it's old." Fics do not have expiration dates, comment and kudos.

You're killing your fandoms with your snobbish behaviors.

[ao3statss]

There are currently 414,472 fics without a single kudos.

2,948,374 under 10 kudos

If anyone was wondering.

[darkimaginativeplace]

Hey, so I just found out about your art account… WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK HOW ARE YOU SO GOOD AT BOTH WRITING AND DRAWING?!?! It’s kinda unfair for you to be this multitalented and skilled, I’m lowkey in awe rn 🥲

The key is starting out horrible at it and never letting that stop you from doing it again ✌️

Thank you so much, kind anon!! I hope you have a wonderful day!

Summary:

"You're going to follow the doctor's orders and keep that knee immobile, understood?" Yuuji chides, warningly pointing his dripping fork at him. "I'll make sure that you do." "Oh? Sound like I can look forward to a whole week of tender, brotherly care, then," Todo concedes, looking pleased. "You don't sound too mad about it now," Yuuji scoffs, amused. Todo seems to have come around faster than Yuuji has, considering he kept trying to walk the injury off and argue with the doctors just hours before. "I'm sure my dear brother will come up with some other way to pass the time," Todo says, warmly, bringing another juicy, steaming bite to his lips. "I know I'm in good hands."

Todo gets injured on the first day of their long-awaited winter vacation and Yuuji has to take care of him.

A few things I (a fanfiction writer) want you to know

 I write fanfiction because I love the characters and ships I write. I’m not a published author, nor am I trying to become one. I’m here because I got obsessed with a stupid tv show. That’s it. 

Kudos and/or comments fuel me more than you can imagine. 

Every day, I get a ‘You’ve got Kudos!’ email. Every day, I open it. I take note of which of my fics have been given kudos. I take note of the usernames I find there. If you’ve left kudos on one of my fics before, I’ll recognize you. I take a moment to appreciate your support. I feel validated and inspired after this. 

When someone comments on one of my fics for the first time, I go ‘Oh hey there, new friend. Welcome to my world.’

If you’ve commented on one of my fics more then once, I know you. I’ve checked out your profile, your works, your bookmarks. When I see your username, I feel like I’m meeting a friend. I’m like ‘This is the person who likes the same rarepair I do.’ - ‘This is the lover of fuff/smut/angst fics.’ I remember.

I read every comment I ever get, many of them more than once. I try to answer them all. I’m not always fast with that, but I promise you, I appreciate the hell out of your feedback. Sometimes people ask me why I’m grinning so dumbly down at my phone, and many times it’s because I just got a new comment. You’re making my day with this. 

Sometimes I get a comment on a WIP I haven’t updated in a while, and in most cases, it motivates me to get the next chapter out. You’re reminding me why I started writing this story. You’re making me want to finish it. 

When I feel down and unable to write, I go back to the comments on stories that mean a lot to me personally. They give me new life. I treasure them. You have no idea how long they stick with me. 

My ask box is always open. You want to express an opinion on my writing anonymously? You have a prompt, an idea, a wish? You probably don’t know how easy I am to persuade to write something. Honestly, try it. 

No fic is too old to comment on it. Never. 

If you’re too shy to leave a comment, you are valid. I’m happy to have you as a reader. I’m a crazy fangirl like you. I’m dying to talk to you. If you can’t, that’s perfectly fine though. 

If you don’t know what to comment, believe me when I say that it doesn’t matter as long as it isn’t rude. You’re too tired to leave a proper comment? I read fics at 2am too my friend, I understand. You don’t know how to put your thoughts into words? You can literally leave me a HI and I’ll be happy about it. 

If you’re too shy to comment in English because you’re not a native speaker, you’re valid. You’re good enough to read fics in this language, you can be proud of that. I know how to use a translator. You may comment in whatever language you want to. I’m not a native speaker either, I’ve long stopped trying to sound like one. I take no shame in that. 

If you have ever taken time out of your day to read one of my stories, I appreciate you so much. If you have ever hit the kudos button on one of my stories, I appreciate you so much. If you have ever written me a comment, shared your genuine feelings about my writing with me, you are responsible for a big, stupid smile on my face and a significant bit of motivation. 

Thank you!
