Show a little respect, you troglodyte.

Violet Sorrengail when she's defending Xaden Riorson online, the man she absolutely does not like, at all.

Yes, the fics where Ilya goes to Shane's game in his jersey are cute and romantic. But why has no one even considered:

saw this post and then read OpalApparition's fic on ao3 and well...its inspired me to to do this. My first offering to the HR fandom.

I love crack fics with Ilya just being such a Shane Hollander fanboy. Haha

yuna wearing medium wash denim and swirling her white wine while plotting how to put her weird gay son on the iron throne is just so vital to me

the thing about the mummy movies is that you really spend most of the time thinking "wow brendan fraser's character is so cool" or "man oded fehr is so mysterious and heroic" when the fact of the matter is that these two

are the absolute most batshit insane heroes in the entire franchise

these two are intellectual loner siblings with archeology backgrounds who read and speak ancient egyptian, hire a dude directly out of prison to take them to a lost city of gold, and fight mummies literally with their bare hands. twice.

no one in these movies stands a chance against the carnahans. frankly they're lethal in how willing they are to make the absolute and most undeniably deranged decisions. jonathan pickpockets a dude on fire. evy's resurrected from the dead and immediately remembers how to use sai. they're racking shotguns from a cliff in this scene and then proceed to blow away half the antagonists.

rick and ardeth should be so lucky

You can't just leave this in the tags. That sounds amazing and if anyone could pull it off it'd be you.

Thank you, that’s so sweet 🥹

I will take the excuse to yap while I take a break from writing! I just think that Violet would make an excellent feisty librarian and Xaden would kill as a seasoned adventurer who was betrayed and left for dead—only to be saved by a determined Violet on a treasure hunt, because he’s useful. Then kiss kiss fall in love, ya know?

Highlights from my dreams (besides Violet killing the silly drunk “I am a librarian” line and Xaden with long overgrown hair and a beard when Violet finds him only for her swallow her tongue when she sees him all cleaned up—both of which live rent-free in my head) include:

- Violet dooming the world because she read a book she shouldn’t have (on-brand somehow and hilarious)

- Xaden begging this 5’1 librarian to stop running into gunfights for the sake of his sanity! On his knees asking her to pretty please stop getting them into situations.

- Either Mira or Brennan as the sibling who won’t allow her to travel alone are interesting in different ways, but I feel like Mira has more capacity for chaos, especially depending on who would be Ardeth in the AU. They’d obviously be a flier. I’ve even played around with the idea of both of them, with Brennan showing up later after booking it across the world like “you guys couldn’t have waited for me?” and immediately being suspicious of Xaden.

Basically it’s the story of Xaden + the Sorrengail siblings traveling through Egypt for a book (and/or history and/or treasure depending who you ask) only to be forced into saving the world against an evil foe (who leaves behind desiccated bodies not unlike venin, which is just a neat parallel). They work alongside a group of ancient warriors (fliers) while dodging another group of exploitative explorers with whom Xaden has a history (you know who).

I never wrote much of it but it does have a special place in my heart. Violet and Xaden arguing about every single move along the way until she’s swooning and he’s willing to stand between her and anything, even the end of the world… that hits the spot.

Oh, and of course they continue searching ancient ruins and having smart kids with their father’s bravery and their mother’s curiosity forever and there is definitely no recasted third movie or whatever the hell that thing with Tom Cruise was

couldn’t pick one so I did all three

[skyfallscotland]

is there anything more australian than “sorry i’m late to the party, i encountered mystery wildlife” ???

[stillgotscars]

okay so who else is up thinking about “and you’d be standing in my front porch light / and i knew you’d come back to me” and “came back when it mattered / i saw you, standing there in the light of the window / wearing that same smile / man, it’s been a while / but i knew it, i knew you”

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be a part of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

Write that one-shot. Those 3 chapters will be the best 10 chapters you ever wrote
