Fic Rundown for me! [aka IDontGoHereEither on ao3]
Hello! Thought it would be a good idea to make a main post with all of the links for my OneChicago crossover fic series, A Herrmann/Halstead Production. (ao3 series link here.)
[If you're looking for My 9-1-1 fics -> you can find them all listed on this post or go to my ao3 account and read them all there. 😊]
What's the series? It's an AU where Christopher Herrmann's mom had an affair with Pat Halstead resulting in a baby. The series follows this original character (Rebecca "Bex" Herrmann) as she grows up and gets to know her brothers and the various Chicago teams.
It is very much an AU, just to underscore that. It doesn't follow the same timeline and characters will follow different paths. I pull some plot lines from the three shows to weave into the big picture storyline, but there will be a fair amount of differences. Hopefully you still check it out!

(And if you're on ao3, please feel free to say hi and leave a comment/question over there!)
Thanks for checking out the series! :D
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the gorgeous cover @sowrongitslottie made for this series:
When my mother forgets a word, she is the queen of coming up with new words. Words that would take a third National Treasure movie to fully decipher. I was talking to her yesterday, and she said this: “You know the time for los jibbities is coming up. You must be so excited!” Oh, is it time for los jibbities already? I must have missed it on my calendar. Are we celebrating something? “Of course! We should all be celebrating, shouldn’t we?” OK, so los jibbities is a happy thing. It’s not like something is giving you the heebie-jeebies, which would have been my one and only guess. “Los heebie-jeebies? Now you’re making things up...and this is my show.” You’re right. The time for los jibbities is coming up. Is this a season? “Yes, the season for love. The season for pride.” OK, los jibbities. “Yeah, sound it out.” Los…jibbities. LGBTs! “Sí, mira cuz you’re gay!” “You couldn’t just say pride season? You couldn’t just… *laughs*
i just know there's some twitter user named moyshane out there who's drawing fanart of shane as every single russian word ilya uses as a pet name. it started as a tomato (#moypomidor is viral after shane was mic'd for the first time on the cens) but then they collaborate with a lip reading account who somehow also speaks russian and it's like. bam shane as a toaster shane as a rabbit shane as a wet floor sign (this one is strangely kinky and gets flagged). ilya voice shane good assist my beautiful little chetyrekhlistnyy klever and then two hours later there's a drawing of shane's face in the middle of a four leaf clover doing the rounds on twitter. shane finds out about it and he's so annoyed he's like STOP calling me cereal call me a hockey player or something so they'll draw me as a hockey player and ilya is like shane moya lyubov there are ten thousand drawings of you as a hockey player already. i want to see you as a brontosaurus. and moyshane, god bless their soul, delivers
I love that four different people on my feed scheduled this joyous person to reblog by 8am on June 1. I look forward to seeing this a dozen more times today.
when I was a kid I had an old tv in my room that would always turn to unwatchable static in the middle of shows but one night my sister and I were watching Naruto & every time Kakashi was on-screen the static cleared so we were like “hahaha the tv looooves Kakashi.”
I had a Kakashi bookmark so we held it up against the screen as a joke but the static actually cleared up. Mystified, we tried different bookmarks and objects with the same plastic material but nothing else worked, only the Kakashi bookmark.
We ended up taping it to the corner of the screen and it stayed there for 11 years until we moved out. When I was older people would be like “can you move the bookmark off the screen” bc it did sort of block a bit of the view but I would demonstrate the static issue and everyone was always just like “huh. what the hell?? well…alright.”
I had a similar tv! It was a tv with a built in dvd and vcr because it was in college and I’m apparently old now. But! The dvd player never wanted to play- unless it was Chicago (2002). First, we would put that dvd in, let it start, and then swap it for the movie we really wanted to watch. It got to the point where we would put in the dvd we wanted and sing “he had it coming!!!” At the screen at volume. Fucking worked *every time*
people DESPERATE in the notes to explain why the way THEY engage with harry potter is morally pure. It's like white people talking about rap music in there! Libraries buy the books! Fanfiction maintains a conversation around the IP! There is NO WAY to enjoy harry potter in 2025 without publicly supporting JK Rowling!
Please stop fucking reading it so the library doesn't have to pay her money. I am a transgender librarian and I am not allowed to not replace old damaged HP books, people read them so we need to have them on our shelves, and what she does with the money doesn't factor into it.
STOP READING HARRY FUCKING POTTER.
I used to be into it! In-depth character analysis, wizard rock, irl quidditch, but when she outed herself as a piece of shit, I couldn't support it anymore!
ASK YOUR LIBRARY FOR OTHER BOOKS TO READ AND STOP READING HARRY FUCKING POTTER.
Especially in the year of our Cailleach 2026. Please. I’m literally begging you. There’s so many other fantasy books to read. Many of which are written by adults who grew up on HP as children, and have some of the same elements. Please. I’m on my knees.
HP is my childhood. it was literally my first hyper fixation. but to enjoy harry potter is to support JKR. i cant enjoy the books/merch/movies/ANYTHING harry potter related because to support HP is to support transphobes. and i wont do that. this is 2025 people we can give up fictional characters to support the very real human beings who are being targeted and attacked by JKR. grow up.
Magical middle grade series you can read instead of Harry Potter:
The Incorruptibles by Lauren Magaziner
Witchlings by Claribel A. Ortega
The Marvellers by Dhonielle Clayton
Nevermoor by Jessica Townsend
Amari and the Night Brothers by B.B. Alston
These are just off the top of my head - they're so good and INCLUSIVE and you will love them. I know there's more too. Ask at your local library!
One of the best things about being a writer is thinking of something small you can add to your work that’s just. Devastating. Like you’re sitting there going. Oh. That would be diabolical. People would get really riled up about that. Exquisite. Let’s do it.
Time travel fic where Tommy is visited by his future self who says he's going to meet a guy named Evan Buckley and it's vital to his happiness that he not walk away from him. That he needs to fight to make it work.
And then another Tommy shows up from another future reality and says it's vital to his future happiness that when he meets some guy named Evan Buckley that he just keeps moving and doesn't give him a second look. It's not worth the heartache and it'll ruin his life.
