Hey, I stumbled upon your WordPress site and I absolutely adore your style of writing. I have noticed however that you haven't updated in a while.. Have you perhaps run out of ideas..? Sorry for being so direct 🤐
Sorry I don’t check Tumblr often, so apols for the late reply. If you mean you like my (Devje) fic, I’m on AO3. If you mean Sezclom’s fic, she’s a doctor with kids and doesnt have time for writing these days.
the “beautiful popular kid falls for the weird nerdy kid” trope done in straight media? stale. overdone. with lesbians? fresh. innovative. groundbreaking
[FICLET] Anniversary
This is a tiny follow-up to Valentine which exists in a world where Seasons 5, 6 and 7 of OUAT never happened (and what a wonderful world that would be).
4:18pm, 11 Feb
Gentle reminder that it’s Valentine’s Day in 3 days
I am aware of that fact, thank you.
Just sayin
Saying.
*rolls eyes*
Trying to be a helpful son here
Thank you. You are most kind, but the reminder is not required.
You don’t always remember
Once, Henry. I forgot once, and your mother knows better than to cast it up to me. Only you are foolish enough to ever mention it.
Come on, you’ve got to admit it’s pretty funny that she tried to ask you out for V day and you never realised it was a date
You’re not too old to be put on a time out.
I’m 25
Exactly.
11:32am, 12 Feb
So, you’ve got Emma a card?
Yes.
And a gift?
Yes.
Something she’ll like?
Yes.
Not just something you think she *should* like, but something she actually wants?
Yes.
You sure?
Yes.
Okay. Cool
2:41pm, 12 Feb
Is it a puppy?
Tell your mother that getting you to ask that for her is underhand.
We’ve had the puppy conversation, and the answer is no.
What?
I’m not asking for her
So, it’s a coincidence that she asked me the same thing not five minutes ago?
How would I know that?
She was already texting you as she left the room.
She could have been texting anyone. How do you know it was me?
Ten years’ experience.
Exactly. It’s your ten year anniversary and you know she really wants a puppy
Tell her that she’ll get nothing at all if she keeps this up.
I don’t know what you’re talking about
Nothing. At. All.
I’ll tell her
5:22pm, 12 Feb
Was she the one who prompted you to remind me about Valentine’s Day in the first place?
Can I plead the Fifth?
You’re a good son, Henry. I love you.
Love you too, mom x
12:03pm, 13 Feb
Its not the opera again, is it? Bcos that was like 16hrs long and really dull
The opera was for me, Emma. The weekend in Boston alone when we went to the opera was for you.
If you don’t give Henry his phone back and delete these texts, I will tell our son in lurid detail what I did to you after the opera.
And I will never do any of those things to you again, no matter how prettily you beg.
Nu phone. Who dis?
Delete the texts, Emma.
And get back to work.
09:14pm, 13 Feb
Just tell her whatever it is, Mom. She’s driving me insane
07:58am, 14 Feb
Meet Harry.
You’re the best, Mom
No, *she* is

I’m happy with it as it is, so I’m afraid the quick answer is never.

Read Of Blood and Choice Chapter 6/15 on AO3
Summary | Emma visits Regina at night, herself and not, her battle against the Darkness mostly lost.
Setting | Events in this story take place several months after Emma has become the Dark One. The story is told in scenes during the months that follow in Regina’s life.
Excerpt | “Emma.” Regina shivers.
“Now, now, Regina.” Emma is already flush against her, sucking up her breaths of tension and intense relief. “Don’t you have a warmer body to play with?”
Emma’s body isn’t cold. It’s burning. It’s burning her. It’s burning for her.
Emma thinks she is cold, because that’s how the Darkness feels to her. It gives Regina solace, that Emma thinks her darkness is cold. It means she hasn’t surrendered.
“Robin doesn’t sleep here anymore, Emma, you know that,” Regina says. Robin hasn’t been invited to the house, to the crypt, to her office since the first night Emma came home.
Emma knows. Emma asks. Emma demands.

Summary | Night has come and as Regina focuses on healing Emma’s injuries, they abandon themselves to their feelings and desires.
Setting | Events in this story take place several months after Emma has become the Dark One. The story is told in scenes during the months that follow in Regina’s life.
Excerpt | “You think Ma can handle it?” His beautiful face marred by a deep frown when he comes into her line of sight.
“Handle what?” Emma surprises them both, bare feet, hoodie and yoga pants, her hands in her pockets. Quiet.
“Let me get you some coffee,” Regina stalls but knows it can only buy her seconds.
“Gran,” Henry-not-so-ninõ answers for her, while she pours the fresh espresso in Emma’s mug. “She wants to visit.”
“Yeah,” Emma nods, wrapping both hands around the mug Regina gives her, leaning into Regina’s body next to her like she’s the only source of heat in the house. “Figures.”
The West Wing S. 4 Ep. 3 “College Kids”
When someone is talking about The Gays without knowing you are one of them, and you just sit there and think about if you should tell them or not.
*writes I LIKE GIRLS on every other page of my journals so future historians don’t try to insist that I’m straight”
Future straight Historians: “we see several examples of her prioritizing a sisterly bond with the women around her, for example on page 12 she says ‘I like girls’ and throughout the text she references loving women and preferring their company. This is not to say she prioritized above her romantic relationships because on page 78 she mentions talking to a man one time in her life. It’s hard to know just how much she valued her sisterly bond with women due to this one reference of men and the ambiguity of early 21st century slang. For example on page 12 when she said she liked women, the passage continues ’…in a lesbian way. I want to kiss girls, they are so pretty, I’m so gay.’ Now it’s difficult to understand just what that sentence means. We know that in the early 21st century kissing on the cheek in greeting had gone out of vogue but the word gay, a word with an archaic meaning of happiness gives the contextual clues that perhaps she is references that old fashioned practice.
Going back to the nameless man that is mentioned once on page 78 for one sentance…”
“Now, given that she wrote on page 12, ‘Just to be clear: I’m sexually and romantically attracted to women exclusively,’ one may be tempted to read this literally, but we can’t rule out sarcasm.”
It may seem like @vilesbian is joking, but she really isn’t.
Charity Bryant and Sylvia Drake were commonlaw married (if that had been legal then) in early 19th-century Vermont
they wrote passionate letters and poetry to each other, and when Sylvia agreed to live with her, Charity recorded the date rapturously in her journal and sent off to Boston for a ring to give her. they lived together until Charity’s death, at which point Sylvia lived alone until she, too, passed away.
the community basically considered them married. their freaking families considered them married, going so far as to use that exact term. nobody’s entirely sure why they were so cool with it, especially since previous relationships with women had caused severe damage to Charity’s reputation. probably they ignored any sexual element of the marriage, but that doesn’t change the fact that they acknowledged it
AND THERE ARE STILL HISTORIANS NOWADAYS WHO TRY TO CLAIM THESE ACTUAL WIVES WERE JUST BFFS WHO LIVED TOGETHER
I’m
I’m so done

Summary | Night has come and as Regina focuses on healing Emma’s injuries, they abandon themselves to their feelings and desires.
Setting | Events in this story take place several months after Emma has become the Dark One. The story is told in scenes during the months that follow in Regina’s life.
Excerpt | The marks are everywhere. On her sides, on her hips and shoulder blades. She has a particularly nasty one in the middle of her spine as if—as if someone has taken a knee to her back or thrown her into a pole. There are scratches, small cuts. Furious red half-sewn, half visibly stapled, badly healed, fiery red scars.
“Mi cielo, what have you done to yourself?” Regina has an inkling.
“Underground street fighting,” Emma mumbles.
So Emma tried to beat the Darkness out of herself? Tried to punish herself for being the Dark One?
Was it to break the monster into submission?
Regina starts her work in silence. She caresses Emma’s skin with her hands, infusing a spell against the pain before she brushes each hideous line with her fingertips, erasing all visible traces of Emma’s fight against herself.
I’ve seen bickering and family quarrels and mysterious trips at night, knives and saws and ropes, and now since last evening, not a sign of the wife. How do you explain that?

Mayor Regina Mills house blueprints.
Hello hello beautiful people! I got bored and @paradoxalpoised still wanted some blueprints of 108 Mifflin.
Please bear in mind these are not the real blueprints of the 472 New Westminster estate, but rather the most accurate I could get based on the show and the video of the real property.
Enjoy these babies and let me know if I can make some improvements.

Summary | As Robin leaves, Emma and Henry are finally reunited. Regina and Henry try to keep Emma safe and comfortable, together as a family so she can rekindle with her humanity and stay with them as they search for a solution to free her from the Dark One’s Curse.
Setting | Events in this story take place several months after Emma has become the Dark One. The story is told in scenes during the months that follow in Regina’s life.
Excerpt |
“Go,” she mouths at Robin. She waves at Roland with the hand she wasn’t able to put down. His is grasping the air, pleading. “Go,” she mouths again.
Henry only has eyes for them, he doesn’t stop until she feels his arms around her, around Emma. His face in her chest, with Emma’s. She wraps them both into her. He’s sobbing, his voice a strangled strand of one linear sound of guttural pain. It sounds like “Mom.”
Robin pulls Roland back to his chest. Steps outside. The door closes with the momentum of their departure.
She closes her eyes. She breathes them in. She indulges in a moment of peace in the eye of the storm.
