Elowyn's Writing Thoughts

20 || professional nerd || they/them My name's Elowyn, but you can call me El or Ellie for short. I'm a fanfic writer (@frostandflamesfanfic) and some of my fandoms are BBC Sherlock, Marvel, the CW Arrowverse, Doctor Who (up to series 8) and the Grishaverse. This'll be the place for all of my quirky thoughts, theories, and all around chaotic word vomit that is my brain. I always love talking about my favorite fandoms and my fics, so don't hesitate to message me!

[frostandflamesthoughts]

This might get me some grief, but I’m curious if anyone else had the same thought. I’m a Djo fan and it’s been nice to see some of the goofy content on my Instagram feed (I’m not super active, so I haven’t kept up with all the chaos that apparently happened earlier this month).

One of the recent story posts made me want to smack my head into the wall though. The wrong number text is funny, but just a bit concerning the number wasn’t blocked. Probably an honest mistake (hey we’re all human!), and I’m like 90% sure it’s not a texting campaign thing like the hotel Crux thing, but I’m really hoping no one is spam calling and texting that number 🤦‍♀️

anyway, that was my little vent. Still so happy to see we’re getting so much content from tour!

[frostandflamesthoughts]

Hey!!

I just wanted to pop in and say how much I adore your writing. The first work I read on tumblr was one of yours actually, and I remember spending COUNTLESS nights scrolling your tumblr and consuming every single fic you wrote—even in the fandoms I wasn’t a part of! This was years ago and your blog just came back to me when I started rewatching Supergirl (for obvious reasons haha) and all I could remember was your profile pic and I spent an entire day looking up “frosted fics” when it was in fact frostandflames lol. Anyways, thank you so much for sharing your lovely fics xxx

oh my gosh, hello you amazing human being!!! Thank you for genuinely making my day with this message (seriously could cry from this — happy tears)! It has been so long since I’ve written fic, but I can’t tell you how much I miss it. Hopefully this summer is when the hiatus ends (work allowing)! Thank you for sticking around this long, lovely! 💙

daydreamin’ fic ideas ☁️

lovesick!steve harrington x shy!anxious!reader

pen-pal au

steve finds it hard to open up about his feelings and deepest thoughts to his existing friends, so he signs up for a pen-pal.

reader doesn’t go out much, too anxious to put herself out there, crippling shy and totally inexperienced, she’s neurodivergent and looking for a friend. (she’s ditzy, giggly, dresses in cute whimsical outfits, loves animals and flowers, talks to herself, luna lovegood vibe, slight tinkerbell vibe too)

after a while of exchanging letters maybe they send a polaroid of themselves (steve’s smitten). it upgrades to texting, then phone calls, then facetiming, then one visits the other for the first time and steve shows her around. very sweet, cute, lovesick, both so into each other but nervous. steve’s a flirt. she’s flustered. maybe they kiss? her first kiss ever. and then through the next letter steve asks her to be his girlfriend? cue long distance relationship — lots of ‘i miss you’ phone calls. steve surprises her with a visit and so on.

long distance friends to lovers; at someone point they either find out that they live close by or one moves closer to the other. tooth-rotting fluff, hopeless romantic!steve, he falls first and she falls harder.

introverted!girl x extroverted!boy

shy girl x flirty boy

inexperienced x experienced

black cat!gf x golden retriever!bf

protective!bf x ditzy!gf

i need someone to write this *sobs*

saving idea for later (and to remember the original idea creator’s user) 💙 I love this concept so much

PLEASE STOP SCROLLING!!

As many of us know, there are a lot of fundraisers going around these days, both on Tumblr and elsewhere on the Internet. But that's created a horrible environment for scams disguising themselves as fundraisers to flourish. One incredibly effective and despicable example has been pet medical/surgical bills. It tugs on the heartstrings and, surely, anyone with a bit of empathy would reblog it. Other people have previously posted about this (here, here, here, and I even found the same ask I got here!), but it seems that these scammers have evolved to look more reputable.

For example, I got an ask in my inbox that seemed like a typical person trying to get help with their financial situation and pay off their cat's medical debt.

I naturally felt compassion for this person and their pet. However, it surprised me because my blog is a small one. This account also followed me just before sending this ask. I went to look on their blog (which is the account's main blog), and I found a pinned post describing their situation with pictures of the cat, vet bill, some sort of medical imaging. The pinned post has the usual mutual aid and pet-related tags and is the only post they've created (they've reblogged two previous versions of the same post without tags). The account has reblogged a lot of random and incredibly long signal boost types of posts, but hasn't tagged any of them. This account even reblogged an advertisement (screenshot below), likely by mistake? I scrolled all the way back and the first post on the blog is from two days ago.

The reblogged ad:

There is more evidence I could go into, but I'm posting this because the pinned post already has over 100 reblogs despite being first posted yesterday.

I beg everyone to just take that extra minute or two to make sure that your and others' money isn't going into the pocket of a scammer when wanting to help someone who truly needs the money. Report and block them on sight!

I tried to skew the video a bit to straighten it and made it a grainy b/w for the vibes. I need to see this movie like yesterdayyyy
