FemShep/Joker slow burn, mutual pining goodness

Current progress: 9/? Parts

[fiddlesticksss]

I also need to WRITE.

But the next fic is angsty so I need to be in a foul mood for it.

[fiddlesticksss]

Oh wow I can't believe I got to the end of my meme queue. I need to make a new batch, chop chop.

Sometimes, you just need a test canvas.

Are the various lipstick colours from all our Shoker Shepards? Because YES

[redwarpaint]

[fiddlesticksss]

I need to print this and paste it over my desk

[garfbin]

And also!!! Happy pride to:

People who can’t be publicly out

People who need time to come out

People who haven’t fully grasped all the facets of their queerness

People whose queerness doesn’t fit a white-centric norm

People who are being criminalized for their queerness

I love you all and I hope you can find some corner of this month for yourself

Do her scars glow brighter when *Joker* comes? 👀 (Covering all bases today)

It works only because she hyperventilates then stops breathing in the moment, and that's what causes glow to intensify.

Could she do that when he comes? Yes. Would she? MAYBE.

Now I'm giggling to myself picturing a whole ass light show in Alice's cabin.

[ale-tie]

Now imagine if it's not a cabin and they are trying to be sneaky somewhere else?

I'm trying SO HARD NOT TO LAUGH, because I can't in any scenario explain what's happening here to my husband, so I'm just sitting here, pressing my nose and mouth shut

[fiddlesticksss]

I'm in the same scenario watching TV with my friends (I probably could explain it to them, it would just take ages)

Maisy deciding to go for an impromptu space walk, just to check the window is secure obviously.

Maisy doesn't need to do a space walk for that, she can participate on any deck of what's happening 👀

[fiddlesticksss]

"Mother, can I watch cartoons?"

[ale-tie]

She always retreated into the shadows, like she belonged to them more than to him. If not for the light she casted around

[fiddlesticksss]

Ale posted four times while I was streaming, and I was told about it by chat and paused all four times. Apparently I said "wow" 7 times for this one.

[fiddlesticksss]

Something something lemonade

[fiddlesticksss]

No worries if not

[fiddlesticksss]

It's only 11am and I've already been in meetings with both of my work crushes teehee

[fiddlesticksss]

So it's been a while since Sunday Funday, but ah...

⭐? Director's cut thingy? 👀 I wanna hear all about what you're excited about!!

Ooooooh I'm so excited to get one of these!!!! Really hard to decide what to talk about though.

Actually I think I'm going to talk about the latest part of the fic (Safe) because I used it to explore a topic I often don't find in media.

Generally, I've found that my little Maisy Shepard has been a great way to explore thoughts and feelings around my experience with late diagnosed, "high-masking" autism. A big part of that is that I've always been touch-averse, but I didn't realise I was because there were exceptions. I've always had one, maybe two people I felt okay being close to, usually my mum and a very close friend. I'm still more aware of myself when I'm say, cuddling, hugging or holding hands with someone, but there are some people I'm okay doing it with (my housemate is essentially the little sister I never had, and I've turned into her pillow, plushie and stress ball).

All that to say, I've seen fics where touch becomes something grounding for Shepard (Ale's fic is one example, and it's beautifully done), but never ones that represent how I feel about touch, where little by little and seemingly for no reason, one person will become safe and reassuring to touch even when no-one else is.

Maisy being okay with touching Joker says "you're my person, and I feel 100% safe with you"

Hey i love you all but as a fandom and a people can we like....chill and let people enjoy things?

[fiddlesticksss]

A friend and I have been watching M*A*S*H and I need someone to recreate this scene with the Normandy crew (the real question is who is Henry? Hackett or Anderson?)
