"average cat owner spends 3 years in prison" factoid actualy just statistical error. average owner spends 0 years in prison. Miette's mother, who kicked her body like the football and went to jail for One Thousand Years is an outlier adn should not have been counted

I love how every single Georg post observes the original's typo

[bananonbinary]

i like that you said "observe" instead of "preserve," implying this has religious importance.

[unheardoracle]

I love characters who are like "I'm a terrible person" but when you look closer it's more like

"I adapted to survive something and now I don't know how to stop being that version of myself."

andrew and neil getting so hype about kevin covering his tattoo that they have to make out for the rest of the night has gotta be the craziest thing to survive from the kandreil drafts

If I had a nickel for every time Kimi Antonelli exceeded track limits, I’d have enough money to buy George Russell a better f1 car.

εγώ εχθές αποφασισμένη να πάρω το δίπλωμα με την αξία μου vs εγώ σήμερα που συνειδητοποίησα ότι ρισκάρω να ξοδέψω κι άλλες άδειες για το τίποτα

insane unsolicited notification i just got that took me way too long to realise was about the michael jackson movie and not a five nights at freddy's jumpscare

benefits of using 10 different kinds of adblocking software and exclusively pirating media: you start to receive marketing from the creepypasta universe

[totally-cis-offical]

Wait that explains everything so so much

[rainbow-demoness]

And since we don't face direct punishment for missing positive social cues like we do for negative ones, our coping skills and compensatory hypervigilance don't develop the same way. So we go through a world of never recognising positive signals, sometimes spotting negative signals, and knowing for sure there's more negative signals we're still missing, because those keep blowing up in our face.

Kind of fucked tbh.

[rorybelly]

like genuinely where are all the poppy war fanfic writers at 😔

as much as i go through lengths with just my imagination, i need to read something to make my life lighter

[altanssnoopy]

Okay, so here are my recommendations (though I haven’t read as many fics as I would like to think, sooo some of them are just ones I have saved that sound incredible and I want to read):

And ps, my links don’t work normally, so sorry about that.

First, I want to recommend some of my own fics, because I am a shameless self advertisement:

- Open my legs, lied down with death, this feeling leads the ache, the kick, the need. - Canonverse AU from Dragon Republic, a little more than slightly dark, one chapter away from completion; part of a series with 1.5 drafted out.

- Half in the shadows, half burned in flames, we can’t look back for nothin’, take what you need, say your goodbyes - Pre-canon and all about Jiang, two-shot and completed.

Then I have mutuals I would love to recommend and some of their works: @andthemoonsingswisely - gardenias on the tile, where it makes no difference who held back from who (to love me is to suffer me); a character study of Rin and Altan, which are always beautiful; one shot. @helenestark - i'm never gonna leave you, baby, even if you lose what's left of your mind; a well done chaltan by one of the best chaltan thinkers; oneshot. @hollywoodbabylondean - Oh Drunken Gods of Slaughter; one of the most detailed and well thought out fics I’ve ever read; multi chapter, complete. @agnes-writes - say a solemn prayer, place a poppy in my hair; one of the best post burning god fanfics I’ve ever read.

My bookmarks (i won’t recommend all of them, you see all of them on my ao3 page)!:

- The only heaven I'll be sent to is when I'm alone with you. By @shirilily - A short oneshot, less than an 1,200 words, but it is genuinely one of my favorites, has such beautiful prose.

- Voulez - Vous by shintacz (i love this author’s works) - A very delicious and well written modern au from Nezha’s pov; multi chapter, not complete yet.

- i know this room and i've walked this floor by orphan_account - A beautiful, beautiful post canon reincarnation au that made me cry; one shot.

- #CafeFightCouple by Anonymous - A very fun and fluffy modern au that is a perfect break from the angst that is the whole trilogy; unfortunately multi chapter and is probably abandoned, still worth a read to me.

- clings like coral by suncrowned(cloudywithachanceofmeatballs) - An incredibly interesting what if prompt; very short one shot.

- Keeping Score by @corneliaavenue-ao3 - is another interesting what if that has such delicious characterization and plotting, all from Nezha’s pov; multi chapter, incomplete.

My current reads:

- Peculiar Pets for Peculiar Girls by thirdtenbin - A whimsical fluffy fic with the vibes of a Studio Ghibli movie; multi chapter, to be completed.

- Mai'rinnen, Is It Just You And Me In The Wreckage Of The World? By @icarus-homebound - is a beautiful character study of Altan after his death, and focuses much on his relationship with Rin; multi chapter, to be completed.

- Upon a Quiet Field of Scarlet by schwoopyboop - A post canon fic taking place in the afterlife where they are all happy; long, multi chapter, not completed yet.

Fics I want to read myself:

- should’ve known I’d be the first to leave by @arikaito - a canon divergence from dragon republic; multi chapter, complete.

- darling, everything’s on fire by mostlypoptarts - a hunger games au with (i’ve only read a couple chapters) interesting character dynamics; long, multi chapter, complete.

- odyssey in waiting by tellmeyoursecrets - an angsty one shot set in the modern world.

- Foundations that lasted the ages then ripped apart at their roots by Purple_cactus - an exploration about the trifecta; short one shot.

- small favors by stqrsign - a pure fluff modern au; longer one shot.

- We are diamonds taking shape by @shirilily - another canon divergence from dragon republic, focusing on rin, kitay and nezha and their trifecta dynamics; long one shot.

—————

That ended up being a lot more than I expected, but I am a yapper and really enjoyed talking about all these fics and I really hope that you are happy with my many recommendations!
