my laptop killed itself and now all my wips are gone. it's been a month now and i had hopes of getting it repaired but now it's been confirmed that there's nothing i can do. so now we can mourn
the good news is i have the full outline of Smash&Grab in a google doc. some of the scenes i already had prewritten were lost in the digital fire but, I can just write since I still have the plot
oh my god it's a relicccc Italy isn't even the canon anymore

CHAPTER 3: High Tea with Low Lives
Lily has a headache, James has a panic attack, and Remus has to get out of here as soon as possible.
“How much trouble are you in?” She sounds out of breath. She expects him to say he just wanted to see her, because that’s what he always used to say. Unfortunately, the James in front of her is not as predictable as the one she remembers leaving behind in Venice. This is a James who’s been removed from the world too long, betrayed by someone close to him and forced into hiding. Now they actually have something in common, Lily thinks. “Trouble? Not much,” James shakes his head. The grin is back on his face. “I am seriously considering getting in some however and it would please me greatly if you joined in.”

If you haven't heard, the em dash has been getting a lot of attention lately…
Because it was trained on pirated work—including freely accessible online writing (like fanfic, academic texts)—ChatGPT picked up patterns and quirks native to human writing.
Including (sigh) the em dash.
There are other victims here (RIP tapestry and delve 🫠), but the appropriation of the em dash—a punctuation mark beloved by writers everywhere—feels especially personal.
A kind of low-grade panic is ensuing. Writers who once memed their own em dash overuse—the greatest punctuation mark ever to grace the control-freak’s lexicon, frankly—are suddenly backing away to avoid accusations.
No. More. We have centuries of dash-abusing writers behind us. We will not sit quietly while AI repurposes our beloved stilted aside—or the just-one-more clarification the sentence demands—or the dramatic pause your comma could never—etc.
You don’t write like AI—AI writes like you.
Defend the em dash.

CHAPTER 2: Brave New Heists
Remus learns the many ways that one can enjoy low-key island living.
“You’ve zero sense of self-preservation, you know,” a voice says behind him. James wonders first if it’s a phantom, a memory of a familiar voice he only wishes to hear. But he turns around and finds his answer. A flesh and blood Remus Lupin stands before him with the air of a man who has enough sense of self-preservation for four people. Remus aims a finger at James, miming a gun. “You have a bullet in your head now.” James can’t help but smile despite the supposed bullet between his eyes. “You’re standing out here in the open with me, so I guess now we’re both dead.”

CHAPTER 1: The House Always Wins
Three years since the betrayal that tore their team apart and put Sirius Black in prison, James Potter is looking to settle the score — and make off with the score of a lifetime.
“So,” he hears a voice coming in through his earpiece: James, his brother and literal partner in crime. “Has anyone told you how great you look when you’re brooding like that. Just stunning, really. You might want to hurry it up though. We have a train to catch after this and we don’t have all night.” Sirius rolls his eyes and leans back from the ledge. He hooks his legs over the windowsill and pushes his back down to lay horizontally in mid-air. He sees James below him on the other side of the street, leaning casually on a motorcycle in his perfectly tailored Italian jacket. James would really rather be caught dead than go on a job in anything less than fucking Armani. Though he might settle for Dolce if the need ever called for it. Their eyes meet for a moment, and Sirius discreetly rubs his middle finger behind his ear so that James will see. James immediately returns the gesture.

i heard about the louvre heist and that brought me back to this behemoth of a wip. imagine popping in after 3 years of inactivity because a bunch of people decided to steal some jewels. get in losers, it's heist time
geas: a magical obligation or promise
“You’d disappear, Lily,” he says. “You’d disappear and I’d never know what happened. No one would. You’d just completely disappear from my life and, and I don’t think I can handle that.” He takes a deep breath. “I can’t have you disappear on me, Lily Evans. I can’t have that. I can’t.” Why, she wants to ask. Why? But she knows what his answer will be. He doesn’t say it, not then and not for years after, but it hangs between them in the silence.

to clarify about fan fiction
to clarify something chuck said in post about being PRO FAN FICTION, some buds have asked if i misspoke when i said ‘fan fiction is part of the original art’. i did not misspeak. i really truly believe this.
if i write a story and you read it an this moves you to paint a picture of snabe and harriet porber, that WHOLE EXPERIENCE FROM ME TO YOU is its own mixed media piece. the medium is motion (getting up and getting the paints) visual (painting) literary (reading the book in first place and then writing your own commentary when you post about it later). it is drama and performance. it is meditation. it is dance in its own way.
i very much mean this: art does not begin and end on the canvas or the page. it is what you had for breakfast the morning you wrote those words, or the story that stuck in your head after watching a show the night before. art is the buckaroo who was moved to pen a whole five page romance story about your characters having a kind picnic in the part.
we are here to create as we push back against the blank empty void, and we prove love is real every time we fill this blank space with little pieces of us. i will not stand in the way of that, and it is an honor to fill this space with this web of inspiration from one bud to the next. ALL OF THIS TIMELINE is a piece and we are one big writers room. there is no shame in this and it is a group project i am proud to be a part of.

hi! congratulations on your baby, and i hope you have a speedy recovery from covid! i love your writing, and rereading your fics always brings me comfort <3
i was wondering if you or any of your followers were familiar with a fic where james and lily were both professors and they’re both known for always arguing with each other/academic rivals and then it turns out they’re married the whole time and they just agree no work talk at home lol. i think it was inspired by a viral post. many thanks regardless of if you’re familiar, and im wishing nothing but the best for you and your family!
Hi there thank you for this lovely message. ❤❤
I'm not immediately recalling this fic but I thought maybe @thequibblah wrote one of these stories??? (I'm obsessed with this idea.)
Anyone familiar with a fic like this?
sounds like A Lesson in Rivalries by @sirenicc !!
