Summary: Samira, Trinity, Emma, and Victoria have been best friends since the fourth grade, and though their bond has been unbreakable, the summer before their senior year of college brings about changes that make the girls worry about what their futures- together and apart- will hold. Samira’s mom is getting remarried, and selling her childhood home against her wishes. Trinity and Victoria haven’t recovered from a devastating fight no one knows the details of, and are determined to spend the summer as far apart as possible. And with unconfirmed rumours of an engagement swirling, Emma’s boyfriend is taking her, her grandma, and her three brothers to visit Guadeloupe to meet her deceased mom’s family for the first time. Worried about growing apart from the friends she’s held dear for most of her life, Emma proposes the girls continue their tradition of mailing each other letters and their trusted, shared denim jacket throughout the summer. Though skeptical the jacket has any magic left to share, the girls agree to one last summer of snail mail.

POV: you just took a picture of Mateo and Victoria as evidence to show everyone they’re dating, and now Mateo is insisting you give him your phone so he can delete the photo because they’re relationship is supposed to be a secret.

Victoria can’t stop laughing because she knows he’s just joking, he’s been wanting to tell everyone they were official since he asked her on that first date a month ago. He’s just been waiting for her to be okay with being public.

Wild Is The Wind

A Vampires & Cowboys AU Mohabbot fic

She asks, “What does it feel like to you? To be alone?”

“It feels like waiting for something you know will never come. Like I’m just on a cliff, waiting to fall over or for someone to pull me back and neither happens. I’m frozen on an edge I can’t save myself from.”

“Hmm…” She studies him carefully, watching his throat bob as her eyes roam over his facade. His breath shallows when she watches him in this way, her undivided attention a gift he feels unworthy of. Her constant kindness makes him nervous. “Do you want to be saved?”

He tilts his head down to look at her. “I didn’t. Not until I met you.”

Summary: After the death of his wife, retired lawman Jack Abbot disappeared into the desert in search of death. Instead, vampire Samira Mohan finds him one night and offers him a path towards redemption- help her kill Michael Robinavitch, the man who killed her father, and she will grant him the end he seeks. But what happens when Jack falls in love with Samira, and decides he doesn’t want to part with this world after all?

Wow has this month been busy! 😭I’m so behind on a handful of writing things, but the final chapter of Crashtos Theater AU will post within the next week! Ah! I can’t believe it’s coming to an end.

With that said, and with my summer break around the corner, I want to select my next long writing projects.

With that in mind, and the time I’ll have, I would like to write and update two long fics concurrently from May-August. But I need your help deciding which! So here are the options.

Next long fic should be…

Crashtos Popstar x Bartender AU.

Mavadi Wedding Planner AU

Mohabbot Reality Dating Show AU

Crashtos Theater AU Sequel (focused on Jemma!)

Mohabbot + Crashtos Detective/Horror AU

She’s so Jade West coded

[hereonthenightcloud]

This may be too niche but… 👀 Mohantos are so Swan x Mercy from the Warriors musical coded. Thank you, that is all.

[hereonthenightcloud]

I’ve been thinking a lot about how the show seems to be suggesting that there’s a different medical path for some characters than what they think or want.

So like: Santos is clearly a good fit for pediatrics; Al Hashimi suggests geriatrics for Samira (but even Samira’s own ideas of what she wants to do are random and not connected to ER; and let’s not forget Robby’s snide psychiatry remark); Joy would do well in pathology; Javadi might be inclined toward leaving medicine altogether (same with Emma, who seems disheartened by the ER); and there’s the constant question of if Al Hashimi actually belongs here or not.

And I can’t decide if it’s a writers’ room unconscious bias, OR a purposeful decision but either way I’m really intrigued by the gender politics of the show and how the overarching narrative seems to be that certain kinds of women don’t belong in emergency med. Compare the aforementioned women to McKay, King, Ellis, and Evans and you’ll see what I mean. I need to ruminate on it a little more, but I think there’s something here to unpack.

[hereonthenightcloud]

Revisiting these thoughts and… oooooof😅 yeah, the show DOES have an interesting bias. Interesting because I don’t think the writers are aware of the pattern they’ve fallen into. (And if they are aware…. I have a lot of questions lol.)

[hereonthenightcloud]

I have a lot of thoughts about Supriya’s exit that I can’t quite articulate fully yet, but the one thing I will say is it’s extremely frustrating and disheartening to see so many posts about Mohabbot/Shawn right now.

Like… I’ve written my fair share of Mohabbot and I am said to lose that potential ship, but ultimately that’s all it was. A potential thing. It was never canon, and I think choosing to take Shawn’s interview answers over the course of the past year as indicative of a promise of canon rather than as what it was (PR fodder for him to build career momentum off of) was not smart of us. And I say us because I bought into it too but I have complicated feelings about it now, and the optics of using an interracial ship and a WOC’s popularity in service of your own career… His answers today, and the very careful way he responded by mostly placing all feelings and thoughts onto Abbot the character instead of himself were very telling to me. idk. It’s not quite a “win” in my mind.

But regardless, I really wish that we would let Supriya’s exit be about Supriya and not the ship and not Shawn. Samira Mohan was and is important without Jack Abbot, and as we mourn the loss of her on the show I think we should remember that. I think it’s a disservice to her and her character to repeatedly post about how we wish Shawn would do X to save it, or we’re upset about losing the romance. Like yes, interracial romances and displaying WOC as desirable IS important, but what’s more important right now is that her story is incomplete. She should be just as important on her own, if that makes sense. (I realize I’m speaking in broad generalities here and perhaps what I see online is not the big picture, so this is just my pov based off of what I have personally seen on my feeds.)

Idk, I guess I just wish she wasn’t so intrinsically tied to the ship? Like I love the ship, but that shouldn’t be the only thing we mourn or remember about Samira Mohan.

javadi and this new girl are in love real

[hereonthenightcloud]

The immediate chemistry they had, my goodness. They’ve had this conversation before, and have shared food before, like there’s a real camaraderie there! Romantic or not, it really tickles me to know that Javadi is basically the people’s princess lol everyone adores her!

See Me In a New Light

A Mavadi fic (inspired by My Big Fat Greek Wedding) Read on ao3 HERE

“If you’re saying you’re impressed, then I guess there’s nothing to be embarrassed about,” he replied with a light tone, but his eyes were more hopeful than playful as they searched hers for an answer to the question he hadn’t quite asked aloud.

“There’s nothing to be embarrassed about,” she shyly affirmed, looking away from him as she warmed under his lingering glance. You impress me.

He knocked his knees against hers, and she returned the gesture by playfully nudging his shoulder with her own. They made eye contact once more, laughter bubbling easily between them as they each looked away after a charged second.

Mateo started nervously, “Would you like to grab dinner with-”

“Yes,” Victoria interrupted, turning to look at him with a soft smile, then looking away bashfully, “yes I would.”

The Pitt Characters as SATC Variants

Carrie Bradshaw is the heart of her friend group, and the glue holding everyone together. She has the best hugs, the silliest jokes, and even though she can’t take her own advice the words she can offer you are very wise. She’s with you through thick and thin, and always sees past the front you put up to protect yourself. Though she knows how to show up for others, she doesn’t always know how to show up for herself. Keep an eye on her! When she breaks, you’ll never know- she keeps her sadness to herself.

Miranda Hobbes is her own worst critic. People often mistake her as judgmental, but in reality she’s a very accepting friend- the only person she’s harshly judging is herself. She’s tough, but tender, a secret softie at heart who overthinks everything and constantly wonders if she’s good enough. She thinks she might be cursed or destined to misery, but the reality is she is every bit as deserving of goodness as her friends are- she just can’t see it yet. Give her a moment, she’ll get there. Just don’t call her out on it when she does. Nothing embarrasses her quite like being caught getting sentimental.

Samantha Jones is fun and free, but don’t let that mistake you for foolish. She’s smarter than she’s given credit for. Need an accomplice? She’s your gal! Need an alibi? She’s already ahead of you. Need a hug? Well… she has some rules about intimacy and affection, but for the right person she has a lot of love to give. The problem is just that the world has taught her the right person doesn’t exist, so it’s up to you to prove to her otherwise.

Charlotte York is a romantic, yes, but she’s not a silly heart! Quite the opposite, actually, she’s a methodical and planned overachiever who doesn’t just dream- she acts. She goes after what she wants with all of her might, which is why it’s so devastating when she falls short of her goals. On the surface, it seems like all she wants is for things to go according to plan. But underneath it all? She just wants someone to hold her and tell her it’s going to be okay when things inevitably fall apart.

[hereonthenightcloud]

I can’t find the post, but a few days ago someone on Twitter made a comparison between Frank Langdon and Frank Heffley. And it made me think.

If Langdon is Frank Heffley, then that makes Trinity Santos Greg Heffley. 😭 because Frank and Greg don’t get along because they remind each other of the worst of themselves, and constantly clash as a result.

Which then of course means Dennis Whitaker is Rowley Jefferson.

And Victoria Javadi is Holly Hills.

And Cassie McKay is Rodrick Heffley.

Had two separate and very different Pitt yuri thoughts, and they both involved Trinity:

1) Crashtos finger imprints tattoos

2) Mohantos pool hustlers AU
