Decided to use this tumblr for my ao3 account, so if you have any questions or just something to say and this platform is easier to use, go for it! This is me: https://archiveofourown.org/users/Grapestone

I'm trying to write a fic where Billy has a sister but as I was trying to figure out unrelated things, I was thinking about relationships and you know. I'm curious what it would be like for the Hargroves to have a disabled woman in the family. Like the sister I'm writing isn't, but imagine if she was in a wheelchair. That would be interesting to see, how everyone deals with that and the whole Upside Down thing

Alright look, promoting yourself as an artist is great and I do support it. But do not come into my comment sections 1) lying about reading my work and loving it, or 2) reading my work, praising it, making me believe that we can be friends who like the same thing, only to offer to "collaborate" by me paying you to make fanarts of my work, claiming that it's because drawing takes *such* an effort. Because writing doesn't, obviously, that's easy-peasy.

There was a rarepair event a few years ago and I had an idea with Jiang Cheng and Nie Zonghui and I really liked it. I remember liking it. And ofc I've only written like, 5 sentences. No notes, no nothing. I have no idea what it was about or where it was going, so now it's just there, in my files, haunting me

...if. *If* I do a, like, idk, medieval? What are these aus called, where one of them is the sovereign and other is whoever else, most likely an arranged marriage au with Levi Ackerman and Jiang Cheng, but the knight one is fun too.

Idk, for whatever reason it came up in my mind, and I don't have any scenarios really, it's just. The dynamic. I love their dynamic. They would be such a slow burn and calm couple. Quietly loving, with obvious support.

Like the knight one is self-explanatory. The absolute loyalty and the need to take care of one another. The protectiveness, the unending worry. "Will it be today, that I lose you? That I have to watch you sacrifice yourself for me, because it's your job?" And the "It's not just a job. It's you. I would do anything for you."

The arranged marriage is slow. They are strangers, they don't know each other, but this is what they gotta do, so this is what they do. Their opinion on the matter doesn't matter, they aren't trying to make each other miserable. A quiet compromise, that even if they don't love each other, hell, maybe they don't even like each other, they won't cause problems, not on purpose (unless it's a spy thing but that's a whole another matter. Sexy tho). Maybe even support one another, depending. Learning about the other, what they do and how they do things, what they say and what they don't, how they treat those around them. Creating a tentative camaraderie, building up on that, and slowly wanting more. Yearning for things unsaid, to see what they don't show for anyone else. To be someone they can let their guard down with, someone they can rely on. And still, they would realise it's not enough, it's still not enough, they want—... but they won't take. Never take, to not break their trust, but working towards their goal, to solidify that trust, to broaden it, deepen it. Doing things for them willingly, because they want to see the other smile, not because it's something that almost feels required.

Anyway, 4am here, I'm babbling.

I am so conflicted because I have ideas about the coralaw fics but they are clashing and I can't decide which one to go for

The problem with writing on my phone isn't only that it's full of typos but that I'm sooo easily distracted. I'll be writing and get a notification or just think 'hm I wonder what's new on tumblr' and I just. Go and check it out. And then start scrolling before I realise what I'm doing and have to force myself to go back to writing

[grapestones]

Okay so I say it here to not add more to the already long note too note on ao3

To those who read my Underground Connections levicheng fic: know that I remember what I said about posting in June at the earliest — and I am working on it! It's...technically...done, but getting the right tone is hard when the story wants to be bigger than what I want lol. It keeps setting itself up for more and I'm trying to wrangle it into submission because while I would love to do listen, I'm not sure I would be able to. I still like the idea more of finishing the main fic and then adding to it in smaller portions in a series of oneshots but it wants to be fleshed out so, sooo badly. I am not capable of it, please my dear characters I need you to understand hsgxhdh

So sure it might have plotholes and whatnot but tbf I will not be writing Uri's pov either and since he's dead it's not like he's going to explain himself and the others have no idea what he was thinking!

Anyway.

Just know that every day I think about this fic. I want to continue it so badly but to get into JC's pov in the situation I keep needing to reread the whole thing and then there's always something wrong with it so it's like. Reread, rewrite, reread, rewrite, on repeat shdhxh. And perhaps that wouldn't be a problem in on itself aside from possibly getting bired of it? But i write mostly at night, like right before sleeping and by the time I finish rereading I am so tired and sleepy I cannot resist my bed any longer lmao. Jiang Cheng I need you to accept things faster and live in denial, just this once.

I have to study for my finals but Law didn't leave me alone.... now I'm writing a fic where after the Heart Pirates get defeated by the Blackbeard pirates, Law is found by the Donquixote family just after they moved to their new mansion to live as humans...

Thinking about a story where you have multiple romantic options but they are actually the same guy. It's just an obsessed shapeshifter with good acting skills

I'm rewatching svtfoe, just passed the naysaya episode and thinking of tomco - specifically that how ironic it would be that Tom curses Marco to not ask Star out and now the Naysaya blurts his insecurities out when Marco tries to talk to Tom and he may not put it together at first but later he's like... wait a minute. Marco?? MARCO????

(And then reap what he sowed when Tom also cursed the Blood Moon if I remember correctly

Edit: i did no remember correctly but oh well have fun breaking curses boys<3)

Eren and Jiang Cheng having a drunk hook-up and Eren constantly whispering things like "I love you, I missed you" meanwhile they never met until now. Jiang Cheng being creeped out by it the next day as he slowly remembers between the headaches and nausea.

(Eren just got too excited as someone remembering their past life in snk and meeting Jiang Cheng again, forgetting that Jiang Cheng doesn't actually remember)

I want creature Jianh Cheng. Not sure what kind yet, but I want him to meet Wriothesley when they are young, both getting adopted by the same parents, but Jiang Cheng is sold before Wriothesley realises what's going on and kills the parents. And I want them to meet again after Wriothesley becomes the Duke and Jiang Cheng is locked away in Meropide, away from the others, and he may or may not be a bit feral because he got experimented on by the people who owned him

[grapestones]

I was listening to a Diluc playlist as I was walking home and. Unsurprisingly. I want to wrote another Diluc x Jiang Cheng. The problem is I have no idea what.

[grapestones]

And now it's a Wriothesley playlist. Guess what.
