The first rule of fandom is have fun. The second rule of fandom is find an enabler and become an enabler. Yes you should write that fic. What if it was even hornier? What if it was angstier? What if you wrote it just for me?

TAG GAME ❗️❗️❗️

Thanks to @litsenn for the tag! <3 Well, I’d say you did very, very well with our favorite vampire spawn.

As for me? The game apparently decided one spouse wasn’t enough and handed me both Karlach and Astarion. I’ll happily take the threesome. Living the dream, apparently. xD Though I can’t help feeling a little guilty about being the third wheel. Lol.

P.S.: This photo is part of a set of three. I was trying to figure out how Lighty Light works, with admittedly limited success. 😅 I still have a lot to learn, so I’ve decided to redo the whole set from scratch, maybe in a different setting.

Well, I wasn't so lucky as you @michanvalentine 😭 but at least my future husband is super cute and can do magic 🤷‍♀️

It's Vivi from Final Fantasy 9. And why exactly do I have him in my camera roll? Because he's gonna be part of my Tattoo very soon 😍

I really don’t know how the marriage will go, but I am fairly certain it comes with two polar bears.

Thanks for the tag @floehie !

In the base Schrodingers cat is no longer used.

It's Daniel Jackson.

Is he dead? Is he alive? Who knows?

[braverygene]

no other media does relationships like sam and jack bc theyre just painfully yearning for each other for like 10 years and the resulting chemistry and tension is a billion times better than conventional hetero romance and will legitimately drive you crazy

[fealty-to-thee]

Having a blorbo is SO wonderful bc you get free joy for thinking about them being happy but also free joy for thinking about them being miserable. No losing

I’m watching stargate for the first time, and my god it’s amazing,the costumes the characters design. They just don’t make tv like this anymore. It’s absolutely amazing to see how much detail they put into the sets and costumes. How much effort goes into making each world look different and have personality like it’s an actual world I could go and visit.

Like the nox episode the characters are amazing the costume and set design are STUNNING

5 Tiny Writing Tips That Aren’t Talked About Enough (but work for me)

These are some lowkey underrated tips I’ve seen floating around writing communities — the kind that don’t get flashy attention but seriously changed how I write.

1. Put “he/she/they” at the start of the sentence less often.

Try switching up your sentence rhythm. Instead of

“She walked to the window,”

try

“The window creaked open under her touch.”

Keeps it fresh and stops the paragraph from sounding like a checklist.

2. Don’t describe everything — describe what matters.

Instead of listing every detail in a room, pick 2–3 objects that say something.

“A half-drunk mug of tea and a knife on the table”

sets a way stronger tone than

“There was a wooden table, two chairs, and a shelf.”

3. Use beats instead of dialogue tags sometimes.

Instead of:

"I'm fine," she said.

Try:

"I'm fine." She wiped her hands on her skirt.

It helps shows emotion, and movement.

4. Write your first draft like no one will ever read it.

No pressure. No perfection. Just vibes. The point of draft one is to exist. Let it be messy and weird — future you will thank you for at least something to edit.

5. When stuck, ask: “What’s the most fun thing that could happen next?”

Not logical. Not realistic. FUN. It doesn’t have to stay — but chasing excitement can blast through writer’s block and give you ideas you actually want to write.
