Heather/Moths 30 They/Them in STEM. Obsessed with my dog, the ethos of Bruce Springsteen songs, and whiling away my lab work by thinking about fictional characters. No sideblogs, it's all here, but I try to be diligent with my tagging.

Hello! I previously stopped using tumblr around...2019 or so? But I'm rebooting my old blog to yap about my writing and engage more with fandom. The only other social media I have is for personal use and not a great space for me to yap about gay cowboys and polygamous X-Men so here I am.

My multi-chapter works/series:

Identity Beyond the Grave (RDR2): A Charles Smith POV "retelling" of the events of the game where he and Arthur's relationship began in Colter. Written both as 1) an excuse for me to FINALLY finish a full play-through for the second time after years of getting sad/anxious and quitting once the gang reaches Shady Belle and 2) a love letter to what may be my favorite game of all time. Currently has most of my attention!

Dogs on Main Street (RDR2): My modern-ish (90s) Charthur au where the "gang" run the local feed store in Valentine.

Man in Middle-verse (X-Men): Series of fics about Logan Howlett, Scott Summers, and Jean Grey becoming a poly couple shortly after Scott and Jean get married.

Ain't No Sin to be Glad You're Alive (X-Men/Deadpool): My take on the Worst Wolverine trying to reconnect with the X-Men in Deadpool's universe. I want to write more of this one but the very nature of the plot requires me to need to spend some extra time learning how to write the other X-Men and I haven't devoted the time to it yet. But trust that this one is still cooking in the back of my mind.

Lastly, obligatory dog pic/full version of my pfp down below. This is Cricket, she is the light of my life.

Also people being obsessed with Greek mythology as kids wasn’t invented by Percy Jackson. My dad read the Iliad and the odyssey in high school because one of his friends was super obsessed with Ancient Greek lit and he was like “well I can’t let him be smarter and more well read than I am I’ve gotta catch up”
