Hi there! You can call me Moss! I’m a 25 y/o bi trans man (with raging AuDHD) writing the queer romance I want to see in the world. You can find me on AO3 here. I almost exclusively write queer sci-fi fics and here you'll mostly find Mass Effect, Star Trek, and Voltron content.
If there’s an accessibility issue on one of my posts or fics (trigger tag requests, alt text, visual or audio description tag requests, captions, etc) please don’t hesitate to let me know so I can rectify the situation.
For all my works and series, I typically write smut scenes/fics in a way that they can be skipped over without losing too much context from the larger narrative of the fic/series. All smut, common triggers, and graphic violence are clearly marked as such.
I ask that minors do NOT engage with any of my 18+ content, particularly my E rated fics. Any content I feel is raunchy will be tagged as “#for the adults” for the sake of filtering convenience. Anything I’d consider strictly 18+ will be marked mature and thus should not appear to minors and be censored for adults. I do not and will not censor sex ed or otherwise educational posts about sex and sexuality. Additionally, do not DM me if you are a minor or ageless blog.
Not pro-ship, not anti-ship, but a secret third thing.
Housekeeping and directories are under the cut.
All major life updates, posting schedule announcements, etc is tagged as “#mosscreeper updates”
Fic requests, character or ship playlist requests, use of my headcanons or fic/art ideas (just tag me), and discussion of my works are all always welcome!
Ask box is always open, but be mindful that the following will either get you blocked or result in me turning off anons. Don’t be that guy.
Any racist, colorist, misogynistic, antisemetic, zionist/pro-Israeli state, homophobic, transphobic, etc BS. Stop making me expand this list.
A failure to follow don’t like/don’t read etiquette, a failure to differentiate between depiction and endorsement, and/or a failure to differentiate between criticism and censorship.
Questions about my anatomy as a trans man. Unless you’re in my pants, what’s in them is absolutely none of your business.
Questions about my IRL sex life
18+ anything from minors, this includes flirtatious comments
I will not write incest (including between adopted family), minor/adult, or glorified depictions of abusive relationships. What I consider glorification may not align with what you consider glorification. Please keep this in mind when making requests.
rape/sexual assault and/or domestic abuse (intimate partner, child abuse, emotional abuse, etc. will be specified)
*Because I primarily use cannabis medically, I am not comfortable trigger tagging its use in this manner. I.E. a character getting high for fun will be trigger tagged as drug use, a character taking a few hits for pain will not be. I also do not consistently tag my own consumption for this reason.

I also have drabbles for both which are updated every so often here for Voltron and here for Mass Effect. All drabbles are 100-200 words long.
Putting the term "Catholic guilt" on a high shelf where fandom can't reach it until everyone learns how to identify characters who are very very clearly coded as Protestant.
I just noticed how scared shitless James looks while Iverson is yelling at the cadets-especially in contrast to the rest of the class looking bored or irritated.
My poor boy looks absolutely TERRIFIED and in my experience people only look like that when getting yelled at if they’ve been abused in the past. That is 100% a trauma response.
tumblr is actually almost usable if you just filter 400 terms and block 900 blogs and have anons off and have messages off and have comments off and have reblogs off and never post any of your opinions and never express mild annoyance at anything ever!
“For me this glass is already broken. I enjoy it; I drink out of it. It holds my water admirably, sometimes even reflecting the sun in beautiful patterns. If I should tap it, it has a lovely ring to it. But when I put this glass on the shelf and the wind knocks it over or my elbow brushes it off the table and it falls to the ground and shatters, I say, ‘Of course.’ When I understand that the glass is already broken, every moment with it is precious.”
The most interesting question you can ask about any character is not what do they want. it's what do they believe they deserve. because those two things are almost never the same and the gap between them is where your entire story lives. a person can want love completely and believe they don't deserve it and that belief will destroy every good thing that comes toward them in ways they won't even notice they're doing. write the gap. the gap is the character.
some hyper famous artists like Van Gogh transcend overratedness and become underrated because they're so normalized. Like I'll look at a van Gogh and I'm like wait this really is amazing you guys don't get it
fictional characters can't consent because they aren't real.. but YOU can consent to reading heavy themes, and you can withdraw consent by clicking the back button and stopping any time, it is your choice to read stories that include or exclude consent 👍
the tragedy of tumblr is you will inevitably meet people who you should be having a sleepover with. you should be rolling around on their floor and rummaging through their fridge and watching shitty movies with. you should be shopping with should be going out to a cafe with should be wandering through the aquarium with. people who you should be experiencing quotidian joys with... and you cannot! because they live one million miles away
