Tired of the media pressuring both Tony and Peter to make their wedding a grand affair, befitting the two Avengers, they’d decided to elope to Vegas with just May and Rhodey as witnesses.

Unfortunately, no one involved had thought of telling the rest of the team of their plans. Especially as neither Peter nor Tony was answering their phones, leading the team to come to the conclusion that they were kidnapped, and thus a rescue mission was in order.

Still at least they avoided the paparazzi.

"How many kudos does my Fic needs for it to be considered 'good enough'?"

None, because that number in the kudos/comments/hits does not measure your effort or passion you have for your own writing.

Numbers do not define you.

Friday Night Day Dream

Head Canon that:

Peter has a pair of spider shoes because sometimes regular shoes are just way too fucking hard to wear and spider shoes are cute AF

That Tony has never been to a fair/carnival so Peter insists on going on all the rides, no matter how “unsafe” Tony claims them to be.

And that Tony tries to win Peter the biggest teddy bear but fails (even with the laws of physics by his side) so Peter wins it for him instead. They name her Maria and Tony almost cries

any tips from fic writers who are in academia and have to spend a lot of time reading/writing in a serious tone? sometimes i find it hard to write fic for fun when my brain is wired to think like i'm writing an article or an assigned paper...

I’ll shoot out a few ideas to consider:

Write in different locations. I work from home a lot, and I do a lot of technical writing for work. That writing always happens in my “office” area, sitting at a desk. My fic and RP writing is always done sitting on my couch (or sometimes my bed). I’m usually sitting cross legged or sprawled out or something, very different from how I sit to work. I used a similar system in grad school and it really helped.

Another way you can shift your brain from one mode into the other is by doing warm ups. Before you start writing fic, spend 10 minutes doing a character study or writing out a conversation or putting a character in a ridiculous/dangerous/new situation. Your warm ups are just there to shift your brain from one kind of writing to the other, so don’t pressure yourself to write out full scenes or be grammatically correct etc. Just try to loosen up your style, start using contractions again, allow slang to seep in. You might be able to turn them into something else some day or you might be grabbed by an idea, but the point isn’t to write something good or finished, it’s to write something informal.

The third option I see is to write out your draft in whatever academic, formal, stilted manner that your brain is currently defaulting to and then edit it later. This way might be more difficult, but if you read a bunch of tumblr shitposts first or spend some time in a group chat, you should be able to see the difference in register and be able to find a middle ground. Maybe?

What about the rest of you? How do you manage to switch from academic papers to fanfic?

I don’t know how helpful it will be to hear how I do this. Because what I do is switch between the two very rapidly to the point that my brain gets used to jumping from style to style. I work on a paper for half an hour, then work on a fic for the next half. Writing fic is pretty much my break from the academics. It lets me unwind and stop analyzing, to throw grammar rules out the window and play with format and font. The two being so different actually helps me balance them.

This method is hard for the first day or so, because while I usually write fic on a daily basis, academic papers tend to have weeks’ worth of break in between them. But once I’m used to it, I can usually carry the momentum forward until I’m done.

I have very limited options in terms of positions/locations, because I have scoliosis and finding a position that won’t leave me wincing for hours on end is hard. So I usually work lying down. Chairs are okay but not the best and sitting anywhere without back support for too long will find me bedridden for days. So everything I write, I write the same way from the same place.
