i want you for the world (i want you all the time)

It all started with too much alcohol, because, of course, it did. Nothing could ever start normally, not with these people, and especially not when they were on their second bottle, even though the night had barely started. At first, it was supposed to be just a stupid discussion, nothing more, nothing less, but they couldn’t resist making it into… an actual thing. It began with Yumichika, mentioning it so offhandedly, it was almost funny. “Have you noticed,” said Yumichika, studying his nails, “that Hisagi loves being in denial? About everything?” or Ikkaku and Yumichika make a bet with Rangiku, because they're sure they can make Hisagi realize that he's not straight, getting themselves into a messy situation. or or 'Make Hisagi realize he's a homotron'

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be a part of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

Write that one-shot. Those 3 chapters will be the best 10 chapters you ever wrote

[the-bar-sinister]

That fic you wrote?

The one about the ship no one else cares about, or the deeply unpopular character, or the extremely unusual AU?

The fic that got no comments or kudos when you posted it?

Months or years from now, that fic might be exactly what someone is looking for in the sea of fics about all the popular characters, ships, and AUs.

Your fic might be the only fic out there that has what someone is looking for. The only fic that scratches the itch that it turns out you and that reader share.

And that's awesome.

[everyoneinspaceisgay]

everyones got that fic they chip away at like michaelangelo sculpting david. and brother? its penis month

[ghsot]

asked my friends if they knew what i was referencing and they said no. we all know that post where someone divided how long it took michelangelo to sculpt david by it's size and went "yuuuuup. whole month spent on penis" right. sure, my search history is full variations upon "michelangelo penis month tumblr" to no avail, but we all know it. right.

[itriedonce]

Hi, that was a MBMBAM bit. But i see you and i hear you and i dont know if someone already said something

[ghsot]

[ID: Screenshot of a transcript.

Travis: Yeah. It well--but it's seventeen feet tall divided by twenty-four months means that every month he crafted point seven--so like about three-quarters of a foot. Right? So, nine inches. So yes, I could say that just statistically speaking, there was a wiener month.

Griffin: Okay. "So how was your September, Michelangelo?" "It was, it was intense."
