THIS IS A TRANS-FRIENDLY BLOG

WIP wednesday (late I know!) Thank you @fagandtonic for the tag!

The noise inside the workshop dies. Bill’s heart lurches sickeningly, lodging in his throat and threatening to choke him as he tries to reply. “Aye?” “Come with me, please.”

Not giving too much away!

#it will be a while before i can post anything but there is a start

tagging myself in on @revolutionarybillfraser's post!

10 People I'd Like to Get to Know Better

LAST SONG

One of the ones on the newest Linkin Park extended album. It's been on repeat for days now, absolutely loving it. Good Things Go was the one before it.

CURRENTLY WATCHING

I'm always watching my way through Human these days! Giving SAS:RH a rewatch too, and also Hornblower. I would be watching Who Do You Think You Are? but the BBC are lying bastards and it's taken them weeks to release the next episode. Football has kinda take over (I've watched a bit of that). I might also be slightly invested in F1 again. Or maybe not. Silverstone was a bit of a damp squib.

CURRENTLY READING

Hmm, well, apart from necessary stuff, I've got a book club book to read (haven't started, it's by the Best Marigold Hotel author), Fo Sgail A' Swastika (again), and What the Ocean Remembers.

CURRENT OBSESSION

My index card system! And weeding... I love weeding. There are a LOT of weeds lol (and it's so rarely I can actually do it that they've grown back by the time I'm well enough again...). And, of course, my cats.

CURRENTLY WORKING ON

I'm currently a bit (read: extremely) taken up by necessary stuff, but I did get to have an evening off to start putting together a family tree for someone, which I hope to dip into here and there. There's also another hat to make...

CURRENTLY WEARING

A browny-red (burgandy?) long-sleeve top and some cream coloured linen trousers. Although I'm under a blanket and a duvet, or I think I'd be feeling a bit cold. I've got a cream shawl nearby and now I'm realising I'll disappear into the wall if I put it on aslkdfj;af;alkjd (I don't give a shit if stuff matches when I'm lurking at home, I just want to be comfy)

LAST GOOGLE SEARCH

Literally google? It was the hours for a shop because they have the chart thing. Other stuff... oh yeah earlier today I was trying to find a site which would tell me the air pressure, seeing as the Met Office has made their app unusable, and they, for some fucking insane reason, don't put air pressure on the website?? (I found a very, very sexy site lol)

FAVOURITE FLOWER

I know so little about flowers... does cherry blossom count? I really love forget-me-nots though, that's the real answer. (Although recently I've been ogling roses in peoples' gardens and getting serious rose envy.)

Oh god okay I don't know who to tags, so um... please tag yourselves in!

#tag game

i didn't notice my 3yr sas:rh anniversary oopsie

#to be fair a lot of irl stuff has been happening so very much

Some of the reasons I headcanon Bill as ✨autistic✨

A gif(t)set for @revolutionarybillfraser - we were having a really fun chat about Bill and I was inspired to do this!

See also:

stubborn

misunderstood resting facial expression

bluntness, often mistaken for rudeness / saying what he means without dressing it up (or worrying about if it's socially appropriate)

competent, but no desire to talk or brag about it

struggles to fit in and interact with others/always on the fringes

a strong sense of right and wrong

#my gifs #it's weirdly hard to put into words #he just has the vibes #ya know?#it was fun to try!#to tag later

[fic update] Do You Remember the Sun?

Chapter 37: A Promise

In which Johnny and Bill take a turn about the garden.

thank you so much @justanotherghostblr for your ask about this one!

#bill fraser #johnny cooper #bill x johnny #my writing

Sorry to hear things have been difficult lately, sending thoughts and prayers that hopefully things will get better soon! Also whenever you get back to writing I'll be happily reading!❤

<33333333 thank you!

#that really means a lot - thank you <3333333

Been craving so Johnny and Reg will Sunblossom maybe get a new chapter soon?🤞🙏❤

oh that fic was so fun to work on! hearing that someone is still interested in it is making me so so happy ;lsdkjfa;ldkjf

unfortunately any updates will have to wait a little while. a lot of stuff has been.... just.... a lot. grief and bad things and whatnot. so i'm not quite in a place where i feel like i can give it the attention it deserves (and that i really want to give it). i've got a rather demanding commitment that's due to finish some time in september and i truly can't put into words how sorely i'm looking forward to being free from it so i can write and write and write again (well, health permitting, and lately it's not been permitting much)

but i love that fic/story so much so if you ever want to talk about it my ask box and dms are always open (and i'll hopefully check tumblr a bit more often now...)

#thank you so so much!#i really wish i could disappear into writing that fic again #hopefully soon though!#'soon' being 'in the next few months'

Hi,

I just finally caught up to Do you remember the Sun? and I was wondering if you're planning to continue it because I'd reeeeeaaaally love to read more of it... 👀

a;lsdkfj;Aladje YES actually! I’ve been thinking about that fic quite a bit over the last however long, it’s one of the ones I really want to finish!

#aaaaah thank you so much for the ask!#i had no idea…..#anyway the short answer is yes #the long answer is yes absolutely #the way things are right now i can’t get very much writing done at all #but i still do try here and there

hmm i would ask if anyone missed me, but my empty ask box and 0 unread messages kinda answers that 😂

#now to seriously ask myself if i want to put what precious little energy i have into sharing stuff here #been dealing with so much grief this last while which is why i was mia #i feel kinda sad no one missed me #oh well #social media era fandom i guess #i really want to finish a few fics and share a few ideas

some jucier snippets!

#my gifs #these have been in my drafts since yesterday too XD

some quickly done gifs of some little Stuart snippets ^^

#my gifs #it helps if i actually post them...

i would love so much to write and post fic but no matter how many time i ask people to please talk to me no one does and it's just so depressing, fandom is supposed to be a community thing you're 100% supposed to say hi to writers and artists and talk to them about fic and ideas and headcanon and just anything show related tbh

but no one is interested enough in my stuff to talk to me, so.... :')

(genuinely, please talk to me about rogue hero stuff? like truly please do because i love the show and characters and i want to share more fic)

#i miss writing so much #but idk if i can face opening myself up by posting something and getting silence back #i'm lonely and in such constant pain i can't settle or get comfy i can't focus to read or think for more than a few minutes #fandom is supposed to be respite from crap #i want to talk to other people who love the same stuff as me!#but no one seems to be into that any more

allthingswhumpyandangsty

and make sure your comments are kind!!! “I love this so much!” and “this is amazing! I’m so excited for what happens next” are more likely to get your favorite fics updated than “when will we get the next chapter?”

i'm not sure if i should finish the winter olympics fic i started, there's been so little interest and no one has said they are looking forward to more which does kinda hurt, and the event itself is nearly over so um...

finish the johnny/reg winter olympics fic?

yes

Voting ended onFeb 24

#i wish people would talk to writers it's so lonely and horrible without encouragement #if you're interested in more you should say!#this is why so much of my stuff is never finished - there's no interest or enthusiasm and no one nudges me #if no one's hungry i won't bother cooking lol #tbh i've written so little lately because i don't have anyone to talk to

tagged by @revolutionarybillfraser - thank you!

last book: the last non-academic one was... Oh I thought it was "The Riddle if the Third Mile", but it might actually have been "9 Troop in the Falklands". It's been a while...

last song: Tell God and the Devil, by Solas

last movie: Wake up Dead Man

last series: Miss Marple as well XD

AO3 will be down for about 15 hours starting at 08:00 UTC on January 21 (what time is that for me?) while we make some improvements to searching bookmarks and series, including:

adding the ability to search, filter, and sort bookmarks by word count

making sure bookmark search results are correct when you use tags containing letters and numbers

preventing series blurbs from listing tags that were only used on draft works

preventing series blurbs from listing tags used on restricted works for guests

updating series bookmark search so it only searches the tags on works you can access
