read my friends' fics from 2025 (or else)

once again my friends have written some wonderful fics over the last year!! go read all of them!!

this is the worthwhile fight by katherine @yrbeecharmer

After almost nine years, Nico has finally gotten his life back together. So has Will, in a different way, on his own path. They're both in the Bay, both in school where they want to be, working on what they want to do. And they're friends again. Things are good. Things are great.

So why does it still feel like there's something missing?

creachure by emi @thelordofshrimp

“That was a dinosaur. I don't know if we're being punked, or if this is an illusion, or what, but that was a dinosaur. I'm sure of it.”

ever after by rosy @rosyredlipstick

Jason divided most of the coin up into four coin purses, all different colors, with the rest sectioned off into two piles. They'd long since lost the shame of it; we’re basically borrowing it, Jason had said more than once. Once it was pumped back into the marketplace, into the tax tribute, it would eventually end up sitting in someone’s coffers. ... From the rich, to the poor. Nico could think of worse ways to make coin.

what if there were two (side by side in orbit) by @2nd2ndalto

Reyna drops a file on Nico’s desk. “Are you familiar with Agent William Solace?” Nico blinks. “Doesn’t ring any bells.” :: It's an X-Files au!

without a star by theo @stressedanimal

“But,” he continued, his voice cracking. “Even if I wasn’t rescued, I don’t think– it wouldn't have been over. Not for me.” Will’s brows knit together. “The rest of you–we know what happens when we die. It’s not like mortals who are just guessing, we know what the afterlife is. It’s almost guaranteed that everyone here is going to Elysium. You all have that.” “And you don’t?” Will asked.

The Father Dilemma by ember @gatesofember

A year after deciding to stay permanently, Nico di Angelo has long since settled into Ladon Creek. He has two bothersome but loyal housemates, a caring community of friends, and a loving partner. His days have never been so peaceful and he never thought he’d feel so happy. But his calm, blissful life is thrown into disarray when he learns some truly sinister news: Will’s father is coming to visit.

and i tell you that i love you (but i bet you already know) by becca @thebhorror

“Hey,” Will said from where he sat at his desk, greeting Nico as he walked in. “I’m glad to see you’re awake! Do you feel any better?” Nico, despite being incredibly uncomfortable, couldn’t help but give Will a small smile. “Not in the slightest,” Nico replied. “In fact, I feel kind of worse. It’s uh, my time of the month.” Nico gets his period. Will helps (and loves) him.

new this year, i present to you: friends who are still writing fic but for a fandom I don't read but you should check them out anyway:

alone tonight

word count: 2854 fandom: heated rivalry rating: EXPLICIT. minors dni. summary: Shane can't get off and calls Ilya for help, ft. the dildo

read on ao3

The hotel bar is fine. Not as bad as it could be, given that Montreal just lost game six of their latest playoff series, and with it their chance at the Cup. It wasn’t really anyone’s fault—in fact, Shane thinks this is the strongest Montreal has been since he was drafted.

Sometimes, the other team is just better.

Still, the loss stings. A shot glass appears in his hand, magically refilling each time he knocks it back—and he’s knocking it back far more than he should. Shane likes playoffs, likes going against the best of the league, likes testing his skills. But now, knowing it’s all over, he just wants to go home.

Two hours and four shots later, he stumbles back to his hotel room. He peels off his suit jacket and shirt, the same from when he left the arena. He tries his best to fold them, but the world spins too much, so he settles for laying them over the back of the desk chair. He withdraws his phone from his pants pocket, setting it on the nightstand. Then, he flops onto the mattress.

He has the single room tonight, due to his hat trick on the ice earlier. He relishes in it as his hand drifts down his chest to the waistband of his pants, then his crotch. He exhales languidly as he just squeezes, letting the feeling wash over him. He feels only slightly guilty, knowing thin drywall is all that separates him from Hayden and J. J. in the next room.

He’s just pent up. That’s all.

1.) Hello its been forever 🫣 how are you lately 🥰

2.) Your ask box "tag" (come destroy me) made me confused, terrified, then laugh in that order so that was lovely

3.) It's wild someone else sent an ask about your and cj's fic so recently because I literally came here just to bother you about your old pjo fics because I was looking at them also 👀 I may or may not be working on something (a gentleman never reveals his secrets) and would (if you would be so kind, or if i could perhaps bribe you somehow 👁👁) be willing to let me look at the backend of html and css for the youtube uploads you designed for Paris? seen anyone manage to nail the format so nicely!

Or the tutorial/work skin you used if you remember? (I'm blinking so nicely at you) Because I genuinely dont think I've ever seen formatting done so well for a fic, especially in terms of the way it looks natural and flows well into making something distinctively youtube while maintaining that ao3 fanfic feel I just adore it

I mean look at this!! The blue font and all!

1. hello!!!!! it truly has been a minute, wow. i’m doing pretty good, altho my halloween plans have been thwarted by sickness. alas.

2. i forgot that’s what i titled my ask box 😭😭 im glad you liked it tho!!

3. everytime someone compliments the formatting of my (and cj’s) social media fics i get SO happy bc i truly spent too much time figuring it all out lmao. and i would love to share the css!! i’m not entirely sure how, i can maybe try publishing it ?? but it’s all in my ao3 so i’ll dig around + rb with a link once i’ve got it!

[buoyantsaturn]

HI. i read i buried myself alive on the inside like 6 months - a year ago, LOVED IT, but then fucking. FORGOT THE NAME. and i remembered the fic recently-ish and wanted to reread but I COULDNT REMEMBER THE NAME AND I WAS DESPERATELY LOOKING FOR IT BY LIKE SEARCHING SOLANGELO BAND AUS BUT THERE ARE SO MANY OF THOSE AND I COULDNT FIND IT. and then i got possessed or something because i remembered it had lou ellen/drew (which made me FERAL btw) and i was able to find it and it was somehow BETTWR THAN I REMEMBERED?? so anyways that you sm for writing it i loved it you're very talented and. yeah. one million cartoon hearts and flowers

THANK YOU!!!!! i love that fic so much it was so much fun to write and of course every time someone compliments this fic i simply must point out that it would be nowhere near as good if not for @ethannku's absolutely insane and wonderful formatting for all of the social media stuff in the fic <3 everybody say thank you ethan <3

also sorry for posting so many solangelo band aus. its my fault nobody can find the band au they're looking for but i promise. statistically speaking if it's a band au it's PROBABLY one of mine. just statistically. i have written so many. and i will continue to do so.

pillow talk

word count: 723 fandom: let free the curse of taekwondo summary: dohoe joins juyeong in bed after a long night of studying. (not nsfw)

read on ao3

The mattress dips, arms sliding around his middle and nose pressing into his neck. Juyeong whispers, “Dohoe-ah?”

“It’s me.” Dohoe’s lips brush Juyeong’s skin. His voice is soft, barely disrupting the calm air around them. 

Juyeong scrunches his nose, sensations filtering in one by one. His limbs feel heavy, like he’s been asleep for hours. “What time is it?”

A kiss to his pulse. “Late.” Another kiss to his collar.

Juyeong hums. His hand absentmindedly finds Dohoe’s on his waist, winding their fingers together. “Did you finish studying?”

Dohoe’s thumb rubs against his palm, finding his love line and tracing it. “Mm.”

Juyeong sighs happily, burrowing further into his pillow. “Good.”

It’s silent, except for the sound of the occasionally passing car. Juyeong doesn’t remember the last time he got this much sleep on a consistent basis; before Dohoe came back, it was so easy to stay up watching some random drama, or to go out with friends and come back stumbling. Anything to avoid remembering how empty his bed was.

Now, though, with Dohoe’s warmth next to him and his shallow exhalations against Juyeong’s neck, sleep comes almost immediately.

Almost.

Trans Nico, hurt/comfort possibly? Please

I would prefer some Solangelo in it but I’m still fine with just Nico and other characters

Hey there! We've got some, just mind the tags...

i'm stuck with u by @ethannku

“Um. Why do you need pads? Is Hazel coming over or something?” Will asks, and he’s got that tone that means that he’s confused, and Nico’s brain shuts down. There’s no way he forgot to tell Will. There’s no way. He and Hazel are always talking about Nico’s transition and his childhood, and there’s no way that he forgot to tell Will that he's trans.

Cramp Attack by @sunflowersandscreams

Nico and Percy are sparring when Nico has a sudden cramp attack. It's worse than most.

Panic attacks by Queer_thing

Nico is struggling with friends and it gets too much

They say the sun makes you happy, that’s true enough for Nico by Ellisthespellis_not_sidewaysdesk

Nico is having a difficult day, because of gender dysphoria, and cuts, and eventually Will saves the day.

will it matter, long after i'm gone? by @berrystrawbs

nico was half certain he’d accidentally left his real self behind, that the person who remained in him was little more than a fragment of a soul, imprisoned in an incorrect body, being poisoned from the inside out. ; or: trans nico, across time and interactions

hii! i love the stuff ur doing and am looking for something kind of niche so its totally fine if you can’t answer this one! do you have any fics with an internet aspect? something like a social media au. im looking for something similar to “travel youtuber nico + some guy he's dating” by ethannku & “Going Viral” by I_get_ around.

(also ik the examples i mentioned are nico centric but i don’t mind what characters are featured in the fic. i dont mind what ships are in it either!)

Hey there! We've got a few of these for you, one of them written by our very own Mod 1...

Clickbait (The Shocking Secrets Behind Percy Jackson's Social Media Career) [series] by Lady_WhiteHaven

Sadly, saving the world doesn't translate into many marketable skills or pave the way for a future career. Now Percy has to figure out what he's going to do with the rest of his life. To kill time, he signs up for a class on using social media. You'll never believe what happens next!

mist you already [series, mind tags for individual works] by starrey_night

An interconnected series where the Mist disappears, exposing the Greek gods and all of their issues to the world, resulting in chaos online. (Featuring demigods with access to the internet and social media, the Olympians being absolutely feral, a government that cannot handle the new normal, and mortals just trying to survive)

Stream Suffering by @frostyblustar

Percy streams a variety of games every day, while Nico streams the same card game every night. Their paths were in different directions, far away from each other, until Nico and Will broke up. Now, Nico is living with him. The internet speculates on everything, but it doesn't need to affect their relationship. Right?

we go to a bridge owned by a goat guy (GONE WRONG????) by @thebiscuitbread

Summary:

Nico: Goatman’s Bridge is THE most HAUNTED place in ALL OF THE U.S., and today WE’RE here to– [Nico cuts his sentence short with a laugh.] Will: Wait, Nico, I thought the place we went to last time was the most haunted in the United States. Nico, rolling his eyes: Every place we go to is the ‘most haunted.’ That’s how you get people to watch. -- @/theShrimpaddict 8 hours ago why is no one talking about the ending???? are they ok?????? 621 likes . 29 Replies or, au where nico has a youtube channel where he goes to haunted places in the US. this is a transcript of a video where nico and will go to goatmans bridge (a haunted bridge) and shenanigans ensue

travel youtuber nico + some guy he's dating [series] by @ethannku

nico has a travel youtube blog, and also a crush/boyfriend who tags along sometimes

Going Viral [series] by I_get_around

Kiss Challenge ft. My BF!! By The_Ghost_King☑️ The video opened with Nico staring deadpan into the camera. “Yeah, you read the title correctly. I do, in fact, have a boyfriend—contrary to what the naysayers might say.” He rolled his eyes fondly, his expression hovering somewhere between exasperation and amusement. “Not all of us are bitch-less,” he added, smirking before pausing dramatically. His eyes darted around the room in exaggerated suspicion, and then he leaned in, whispering, “Don't tell my boyfriend I called him a bitch.” _ Nico couldn’t resist. He grinned mischievously and leaned in again, placing soft kisses all over Will’s face—each one leaving a fresh mark of lipstick. Will’s face was flushed with affection, his eyes sparkling with joy. “Stop making me look like a walking lipstick ad,” Will chuckled, clearly enjoying the attention. _ Or I gave Nico a YouTube channel and made him and Will do a lipstick challenge

read on ao3

He’s never seen Dohoe shirtless. Sure, he catches glimpses during spars, when his dobok loosens, but Grandmaster is nearly always in the vicinity so it’s never registered. Not the way it’s registering now.

“Dohoe,” he breathes, and watches in shock as Dohoe wrestles out of his shirt.

Except...

Juyeong’s brow furrows.

Where he expected to see a golden expanse of skin stretched over defined pectorals, he sees instead… bandages. A thick swath of bandages, wrapped around Dohoe’s chest, ending a few inches above his belly button.

“Juyeong-ah. I wasn’t born a boy.”

word count: 2,128 fandom: the next prince summary: a rewrite of the night club scene where Ramil is a vampire and Paytai is his human companion

read on ao3

Ramil doesn’t know why he’s here.

No, that’s not right. He knows exactly why: the stupid Assavadevathin heir had insisted on visiting a human club while in Meenanagarin. If Ramil had the capability to be sympathetic, he might understand that Khanin has gone through several incredible shocks one after the other. Not only is he the secret heir to royalty, he's also just learned he's a near-immortal vampire. Someone in that situation might search for something familiar amidst an entirely foreign situation—like a human club similar to those he could frequent freely only a few months ago.

But Ramil is nothing if not unsympathetic, and if it weren’t for Paytai accepting Ava’s invitation, he would have stayed in his chambers... so he supposes he has his companion to blame for all this. Even Charan had no qualms about this whole outing, so Ramil was well and truly outnumbered in his disgust. He doesn’t understand why anyone would like this kind of place—his nose is assaulted by a cocktail of horrendous scents wafting from the direction of the bathroom, and the loud music was clearly not chosen for vampires judging by the ringing in Ramil’s hypersensitive ears.

So here Ramil sits, at the bar, nursing a drink and feeling the alcohol burn through his borrowed blood far faster than he anticipated.
