Call me Ouro | ao3: Unicorn_alien_staccato | art blog: @achroition | Multi-fandom enjoyer | I write and draw a varying range of genres (crack/fluff to horror/angst), so please mind both tags and ships | Feel free to say hi (DMs or inbox) | DNI if not to your taste | pfp: @SD2190392804 (Twitter), header: harumaki gohan
Link to my ao3 for just the polished fics, since this masterlist will eventually add the scattered ideas I sometimes ramble about.
This blog only hosts my writing, and my art can be found in this other blog HERE.
Word of caution:
Since I also write fics involving darker content, I advise anyone browsing through to be mindful of the tags and warnings. I'm planning to update this masterlist with CWs attached to each fic, but if there are any specific CWs that you believe may be helpful to add, DM me.
Relevant CWs: If any of these make you uncomfortable, I suggest that you do not read these
Incest: While I do not write about explicit sexual scenes on this blog, I have written fics about incestuous relationships, particularly because I write for Vampire Knight.
Abuse: My series involving Kriemhild Gretchen and Homura from PMMM is effectively, at its core, about an abusive relationship.
Gore/Violence: Especially prevelant in my above mentioned PMMM fic series. It's not too explicit (i.e. I'm not writing paragraphs of gore), but if reading about someone's literal insides makes you feel uncomfortable - again, do not read it for your own peace of mind

I don't normally ask of this but I'm a college student who is currently struggling with funds and also need a job which I've been looking for.
I don't normally ask people for this but if you want, please commission me for anything as I make video edits, gif sets, graphics, notion templates, carrds, and write fanfics. After this week, I'll be done with finals and have some time before next semester.
at the moment, I currently own $466 in loans.

also, my funds make it difficult for me to donate to fundraisers I see (especially Palestine and sudan related) , but I still repost them under the boost tag on my blog so I will be promoting those under here.
here's my ko-fi / venmo / paypal
and here are some fundraising sites:
- my boost tag
- Palestinian fundraisers

Unfortunately the site I had for Sudan fundraisers recently got taken down but I do know a Twitter account that reposts fundraisers
Unfortunately, I just can't catch a break with these fees. Please help. Also I haven't used anything ive gotten from ko-fi yet as I want to save so anyone whose been helping me is doing wonders. These fees are exhausting.
fateposting pt. 6: rooftops, horses, Excalibur, and byenara to Shinji
That's a lotta sound effects. But very cool go Excalibur go
-
I do like how Rin does often offer very realistic solutions to others' problems (usually mage-related). Particularly in this instance in the aftermath of Rider vs Saber (Saber's severe magic depletion). It's not a morally sound solution, but it is perhaps one of the only possible solutions that Shirou can do on his own as an independent master (without others helping).
Of course whether said morally dubious decisions (by either Rin or Shirou) are actually ever executed are dependent on multiple factors and also another ball of worms to unravel.
-
Also truly the choices in the fate route are so easy once you clock that choosing the suicidal/heroism/don't listen to people options lead to you progressing
Off topic but the ever so slightly longer-than-they-really-should-be-arms are really evident when you see them on the male characters. They really do look longer than they should be if you start counting for fingerlength. Or maybe it's because of how their standing sprites are...standing? Anyways-
-
Archer and Shirou really did have that mutual "Wow I don't like your vibes, actually" on sight* huh
*Well not exactly on sight for Archer but like you know what I mean. It is a little funny watching them bicker
-
I'm so sorry Shirou I know Illya's about to kill you rn but man that fisheye pov:
-
Sudden self-motivation speech (?), ft. a very fancy looking sword
Oh, and a kidnapping as well. And now a sudden reminder to our protagonist that child-like characters with child-like innocence also encompass the potential for innocent cruelty, I guess
Rip to Shinji I guess, you were uh- I dunno I guess you were there???
-
Ah yes, the age old classic for snapping out of body/mind control: self-harm (internal bleeding edition)
-
Go Saber!!! Found the Shirou in the castle in the first stage!
And now we're back to semi-funny shenanigans between team Archer and team Saber, yay!
Archer, speaking right in front of Shirou, at the very moment, knowing they went into Illya's castle specifically to find Shirou and rescue him: we should've left Emiya Shirou and Let Him Die
This guy is truly no filter snarkatron 3000 at team Saber lmao
Every once in a while in the fate route you really do get the impression that Saber and Rin have become fast friends/allies/get along quite well, actually. Also as direct as Rin is when it comes to a lot of things, she's also pretty non-direct in a lot of other areas (namely, emotional areas)
-
We're going to run into Illya before we can properly escape, aren't we?
Yup, we did.
-
Archer & Rin;;;; Archer & Rin;;;;;;; you guys;;;;;;; They feel so close to each other even though they're not the focus of this route and only had the prologue and limited scenes together for now. They are one of the partners in fsn tbh
-
I'm actually playing the realta nua version mixed with classic content so I'll probably have to double back to look at the substituted scenes in realta nua. Although I'll probably do it when I'm finished with either all the routes or the specific route the classic scene comes from. I'm not going to comment extensively on the R-18 stuff because I don't really have much of an opinion on it.
The writing for it is kind of amusing, although it is evidently based on outdated sex education. But I suppose it fits the tone that Shirou's perspective would give to a "you must have intercourse now or die" kind of scenario. Which, well, it should, given that this visual novel is narrated in first person pov.
-
Ah yes, in our next interlude: six lines about Berserker's current state of health (somehow (because of np) he's not dead)
Oh, six deaths? Good job, Archer
Hm, Illya's ramping up the malice right now, huh?
-
Anyways to close off this session: "Heartbreaking: The Worst Person You Know Just Made a Great Point" (Or uh, sort of summarising the Archer & Shirou relationship in Fate route? Obviously this is hyperbole and mostly a joke about how Shirou is clearly irritated by Archer at many points of this route but still respects him)
mage girl... mage girl.... save me mage girl.... [Kaleido Ruby FSN AU part whatever]
Note: I should probably finish my part 3 ramblings on rin-ships but this was pretty funny to brainstorm for so I'll dunk this onto the table instead for now
Can't decide whether it's funnier if Rin actively tries to hide her magical girl schtick for the first few days and then fails miserably, or just goes "ok archer just follow me. Don't question ANYTHING" on what is quite literally the day after she summons Archer.
Of course, Archer questions everything because clearly the timeline was not how he remembered it. Probably. (Does this mean Archer's like, a super-sized mascot for this AU? Maybe???) I dunno but this would be the funniest AU to have YumiRin in it because we can skip all of the angst (read: Shirou Emiya's dream to become a hero gets drastically de-railed by an early encounter with the local Fuyuki hero of justice/magical girl so he's already on the track to NOT become another Archer EMIYA) and have Rin kick down the metaphorical doors and drag Archer out to experience happiness(TM) as he watches (and participates tbh) the wacky insane hijinks Rin gets herself into alongside Ruby as she keeps up the world's worst (best? I mean to be fair only Sakura knows it's Rin but the point of everything was so that Sakura wouldn't find out it was Rin so…) kept secret identity.
(I mean this AU's premise could totally accommodate SakuRin or Rintoria/SaberRin or YariRin/CuRin or ShiRin because it's so "yeah so that happened (because it was funny)" but the YumiRin variant is extremely funny to me right now)
If you're wondering what happens with the HGW in this AU, the power of love and questionable friendship takes care of it (Rin and Ruby fiddled around with the giant ancient magic circle and then actually solved the problem by magical girl laser beaming it). Now all the servants get to run around a la Emiya Gohan style and all the plotters (Zouken, Gilgamesh, and Kirei) have to deal with derailed plans that got derailed in an increasingly unhinged fashion. Although to be more specific Zouken has to deal with dementia and a general uh, lack of magic I guess.
Also I suppose Ruby kind of maybe mellows out to be more chaotic good rather than her original self-centered chaos. That would be the kind of character development I'd have to build in an actual story though, so I won't go too in-depth over that.
Usual disclaimer: Not Prillya-related at all as I haven't seen that series, and I'm not really interested in what it offers.
I'm just here to spread Magical Girl Rin Who Kind of Maybe Goofed Up With The Grail(TM) because Ruby thought it would be funny except now the Grail(TM) no longer functions like it should in canon (kills everyone in the general vicinity once activated) because if the magecraft/magic system in fate can be explained by coding then clearly any mishaps can be fixed by the superior power of mechanical engineering, also known as:
"Yeah if you hit it hard enough it'll probably reset and solve your problems"
Ergo:
Grandpa gone bug-crazy? A good thwack will solve All Your Problems!
Brother gone off the deep end? Don't worry, a hard reset will solve Everything!
Haven't figured out how to make yourself corporeal so you can marry the manic pixie dream guy that picked you off the streets? Troubleshoot your hardware!
Guy can't take a hint even though it's been 10 years already? Use the power of friendship and This Gun That Clearly Could Not Have Been Found From the Side of the Road
Stuck working for a black company with no pay, no holidays, and only your self-hatred for companionship? Aggressive negotiations may be needed
If your Grail has All the World's Evils inside of it, no it doesn't, because it was exorcised with the power of love, which tends to manifest in larping so well as a genuine magical girl that the holy grail war gets derailed to kingdom come
This is a completely random idea based on the enemy servants page of the hsr x fsn (somehow ubw in theory) collaboration event, but personally, it's funny to imagine Argenti and Rin interacting as a master-servant pair, if only because I feel like their dynamic would be partly:
Argenti: *randomly showed up again, having just gotten rid of an opponent in the HGW, and so is now waxing poetic about said opponent*
Rin: ??? You know what sure what the hell
And also one where Argenti directly encourages Rin's more human traits (Idrila-approved 👍) as she dies of cringe (aka short-circuits because she's never actually allowed herself to have extended genuine contact with others without putting on a mask)
I don't normally ask of this but I'm a college student who is currently struggling with funds and also need a job which I've been looking for.

an annotated playlist for my jingfu wip, "checkfruit".
[Marriage would've been a cheaper affair.]
1. the perfect pair - beabadoobee
You ought to know that I think we're one and the same
I don't think we could help it, no, I don't think we could help it
so bittersweet and intimate. it feels like - standing in the ruins of the same fire, in the same room but so far from each other. that tension between - i know you like no other! - i fear you like no other - "if i told you, you'd know how to go break my heart in two".
the song depicts a much more broken relationship than jingfu's, but i just found the fraughtness fitting. there might possibly be no other pair that could be closer than them, literally, thanks to the checkfruit bond. and yet even as they move in perfect sync they're still hiding secrets from each other; even as they keep only each other's counsel they're still working behind each other's back.
and always that low-thrumming fear - that someone could know you as deeply as they do.
they are of a long-lived species. they have everything to lose.
I know I'm independent but I think I need ya
Kayang mag-isa pero mas gusto with ya
(I could go it alone but I'd rather with ya)
2. Gusto With Ya - DENȲ
and they've gone it alone for so long but they can't deny the ease that comes with this new bond. and the closeness that has burst forth between them scares her, but moving in a world where they live in each other's back pockets is easy as breathing.
"sanay nang mag-isa, pero mas sasaya / kung lagi kang makakasama." i'm used to being alone, but i'd be so much happier / if i was always with ya.
what to say? is there even anything to say? they look at each other and thought races between them faster than light.
what to say? nothing, nothing.
everything.
3. ...Like Clockwork - Queens of the Stone Age
Everyone, it seems, has somewhere to go
And the faster the world spins, the shorter the lights will glow
though - what the hell are they even doing? day in and day out, this endlessness upon endlessness. careening on some predetermined trajectory, ever on towards supernova - "all the promises of stone crumble in the light" - and "the deeper in the water, the more i long for you". and. there is never time for anything, especially this, especially now. she can't even think it. she mustn't.
aching and lonesome and rueful. we've made so many mistakes...
the world spins, and they with it. space breathes, and they with it.
4. I Don't Like My Mind - Mitski
I don't like my mind, I don't like being left alone in a room
With all its opinions about the things that I've done
oh fu xuan....... what a melancholy song. "a whole cake, so please don't take / my job from me". you with all the weight of the world on your shoulders, will you not take even the hand that is outstretched to hold you up? will you not even...
and jing yuan smiling and sleeping off the grief. it suits you to be looked down on and underestimated, and it suits you to shrug off the weariness of all your years, but it never truly leaves you regardless...
5. Savior Complex - Phoebe Bridgers
All the bad dreams that you hide
Show me yours, I'll show you mine
and... they could see each other, and they do. and so they know the best ways to outwit the other, to tiptoe around their watchful gaze. again they are fighting because one or the other has moved without asking, because one or the other thinks they know better, thinks they need to save them. all we have is trust. all we have is trust! and now - well.
what worse insult is there?
(what helpless, frantic love?)
6. Me and My Husband - Mitski
So I bet all I have on that
Furrowed brow
And at least in this lifetime
We're sticking together
and: who else could it be but you?
7. You're here that's the thing - beabadoobee
And I know you said that we're not a thing
But you're here, that's the thing
she is nobody's lackey; he is nobody's puppet. they don't know where this is, this limbo they occupy, the air thick with everything they don't say, every thought they turn a blind eye to.
well - you're overcomplicating everything! nobody else needs to know. nobody else needs to understand. all that matters is this world where i blink and your vantage is starry in the darkness of my eyelids; where you wake and i feel your yawn rattle my bones. all that matters: i have you, and you have me.
8. Pahintulot - Shirebound
Alamat lang ba ang pahinga ng dalawang puyat sa
(Asking, 'Is rest only a myth for two souls')
Pira-pirasong mga bugtong, nagtatanong
('Tired of all these piecemeal riddles?')
but you could find rest in me if you wanted to. you could find shelter. lay down your burden; let me carry it with you. "giliw, kung pahihintulutan mo ako" - if you would only let me, darling - you don't know the least of what i would do for you. (neither do you, her eyes say. neither do you.)
what shall we name this chasm that stretches from my cavity to yours, driving our hearts as one engine?
fate/zero: my team has spent months preparing for this moment, I have my tragic backstory set, I summoned the strongest servant possible, I am totally 100% sure i’m gonna win this thing, I’m not afraid to play dirty, I will make this world a better place for the next generation no matter what the cost.
fate/stay night: help I got stabbed by Cu Chulainn and bled all over the shed out back and accidentally summoned King Arthur nobody knows what’s going on we have no parental wisdom in our lives because you all killed each other last series
everyone's heard of this, right? per ap article of apr 8, 2026:
Jacobs went on to record more than 10,000 concerts, with increasingly sophisticated equipment, over four decades in Chicago and other cities. Now a group of devoted volunteers in the U.S. and Europe is methodically cataloging, digitizing and uploading them one by one.
The growing Aadam Jacobs Collection [link to internet archive] is an internet treasure trove for music lovers, especially for fans of indie and punk rock during the 1980s through the early 2000s, when the scene blossomed and became mainstream. The collection features early-in-their-career performances from alternative and experimental artists like R.E.M., The Cure, The Pixies, The Replacements, Depeche Mode, Stereolab, Sonic Youth and Björk.
fateposting pt.5: if you think about it, [redacted] metaphorically turns you into a lizard
Rin really said "Oh shit Shinji likes me... Oh wait, he asked me out last year...." Impressive...uh...compartmentalisation? Efficient use of biological memory space??? Idk but it is funny. As much as Rin gets on about Shirou being oblivious as shit to others' feelings (which he sort of is and isn't), she's kind of in the same general boat lol (But I guess that happens when you're prone to tunnel vision. It's also a common thing that just happens to people, tbh)
-
I like how Shirou just puts things his allies hand him into his mouth without asking any questions like yup down the hatch it goes. Terrible survival skills, this one
-
Damn, only toast for breakfast 😔 we should throw shirou into the gulag
-
Rin & Saber...they get along so well.... They're so cute to watch together... RinSaber...........
-
Starting to wonder where Rin keeps getting those lamps as well - last time it was thirty, today it's forty. We r depleting the lamp stocks in Fuyuki. Unless it turns out the Tohsakas had a thriving lamp business hidden somewhere.
-
Shirou's very sturdy. The fact that he isn't dead after getting punted like a basketball onto the ground floor of Homurahara Academy is honestly a miracle
-
Shinji.... It really does feel like watching a kid want to be "one of the cool guys" but not actually understanding what becoming part of the (magus) gang actually means. He's got the average mentality down right now with his uh, high-adrenaline fueled inferiority complex, but... He's a real idiot, huh
(And also full of shit, but I guess that's what happens when u give a teenager without proper emotional regulation and defined morals a little bit of that forbidden power juice.)
Also, I liked the "Goodbye, Shinji" line as a way of efficiently communicating Shirou's switch to being extremely serious about killing Shinji right on the spot if he doesn't get rid of Bloodfort Andromeda Right Now.
-
Lol secretly part-lizardman Shirou
-
Mysterious new methods of pulse-taking coming soon from a 2004 fictional japanese city set in a fictional world (that sometimes doesn't seem to know its own rules)
-
This is some very funny relationship progression we are having between Shirou and Saber, but also generally fun trio conversations between Shirou, Saber, and Rin because sometimes of how they all bounce off of each other and either one of them takes the "guys what are you doing" ball
(not really shipping or anything I think in general they'd make a fun friend group)
-
They're really hammering you over the head with the message they/re going for in this route huh
Not that I'm complaining, since it's not really that out of place, given that we're coming from a first-person narrator pov anyways, but it is a little funny how obvious of a point they're making. That being said, a vn-format certainly allows you to be much more unsubtle than an anime would allow you to be.
-
Cue: Everyone is cheating in the HGW, so technically Saber isn't as much of an ace up the sleeve as she could be (aka I guess Rin's kind of dissing Saber to her face right now lol)
It's kind of blink of miss but I did spot that angry mark on Saber during the explanation re: divine mysteries and how servants can usually only be attacked by other servants if you want to defeat them
Lollll not Saber lowkey going "hmmmm well I'm sure I'm stronger than Rider." It's ok Saber, we know you're strong
-
I like how anti-personnel/unit vs anti-army gets explained as "so if you brought a missile to the gunfight"
-
Shirou has some very good pain tolerance, but just like me when I keep pulling terrible decisions for my health, the body will become weak where the heart is still willing
-
That horse looks weirdly disproportionate... It's not a bad recreation of a horse, but something looks off about that horse...Pegasus....
