❀ hi y'all!

I'm a scientist (?) who's here to yell about things and write fully self-indulgent fanfiction during my downtime. I've got an eclectic and inconsistent mix of fandoms, including Stardew Valley, Leverage, Death Note, Pacific Rim, Fall Out Boy, and Jurassic Park. Please let me know if you need anything tagged.

Asks are open! (Feel free to send writing prompt requests!)

❦ fic masterlist

Stars The Same As Ever (Hallmark AU) T+ | Ongoing | Sebastian/Farmer, Sam/Maru Big-city programmer Sebastian is home for Winter Star, and Pelican Town has changed since he left. Abby is married. Sam’s band has an obnoxiously friendly new keyboardist. Maru is clearly keeping a big secret from their parents, not that he cares.

In an effort to avoid hanging out with a family he doesn't mesh with and a friend group he no longer feels secure in, he proposes an arrangement with Ava (local farmer, town hero, and overcommitted disaster): He'll help out on the farm to avoid his social commitments, and she'll get an extra hand with her overwhelming list of holiday tasks. Buckle up for a Hallmark-inspired Stardew fic, complete with accidental fake dating, holiday angst, and plenty of humor and fluff.

We Didn't Start The Fire (Superhero AU) T+ | 161k | Sebastian/Farmer, Leah/Abigail Ava is a burned-out superhero, literally— she sets a dumpster fire at her soul-crushing JojaCo job, and has to blame her alter-ego to get out of it. With nothing left to lose, she moves to Stardew Valley for a new start... But her partner in vigilante justice, the hacker known as Memento, is convinced she's been framed, and he will stop at nothing to prove her innocence, as long as he doesn't fall for the cute farmer who just moved in down the road, first.

Flu Game (Hanahaki AU) T+ | 32k | Sebastian/Farmer The cure to Ava's hanahaki is straightforward: Painkillers, as needed, and an honest heart-to-heart chat with Sebastian about the big embarrassing crush she's been trying to ignore for several months now. She decides to try getting over it on her own with secondhand talk therapy and avoidance, instead. Nothing can possibly go wrong.

Am I More Than You Bargained For Yet? T+ | 12k | Sebastian/Ava Bonus prequel to WDSTF! Sebastian goes on his first superhero mission as a hacker, and nothing goes according to plan.

Permission Statement

I welcome transformative work of my fanfiction! This includes fanart, fics, podfics, translations, and fanbinding. You definitely don't need to ask for my permission, but I would appreciate it if you linked to the fic it was based off of (via the "Inspired by" AO3 link, or via a link in the notes or caption).

I do not approve transformative work of my fanfiction that involves use of generative AI; this includes, for example, most large language models such as ChatGPT, podcast/voice AI, or AI art generators.

Also, no obligation, but if you do happen to create something inspired by one of my fics somewhere, I'd love to see it! You can shoot me an ask here if you want to show me the cool stuff you made!

forever biting things about near btw. What if you were 13 and got told the man whose identity you had to replace was already dead. what if that man didn’t even reach twice your age. What if you hated every second of it but there’s nothing else for you to do anyway. what if you have to do it alone. What if you have people surrounding you, people who you trust, who you never ever show that trust to because you don’t understand your emotions and you don’t want them anyway. What if the only other person who went through the exact same thing as you dies. what if he was only a year and a half older than you. what if you cant tell if it was a necessary sacrifice or if he just really wanted to die. What if you won despite and because of him. What if you didnt win, anything, at all, in any way. What if you were 27. What if you were wondering when it was your turn. What if you kept living.

listening to black parade -> danger days means u go from "i cannot kill myself, killing myself is the myself killer" to "there isn't a bitch bad enough to kill me"

[infectiouspiss]

"i am not afraid to keep on living, i am not afraid to walk this world alone" -> "shut up and lemme see your jazz hands!!!!!!"

One of the best things about being a writer is thinking of something small you can add to your work that’s just. Devastating. Like you’re sitting there going. Oh. That would be diabolical. People would get really riled up about that. Exquisite. Let’s do it.

[goldensunset]

advice i think we should tell children is that when adults say stuff like ‘now that i’m an adult i get really excited about stuff like coffee tables and bathrooms and rugs etc’ they don’t mean ‘and now i don’t care about blorbo and squimbus from my childhood tv shows anymore’ bc your average adult still loves all the same pop culture stuff they always did; they just have a greater appreciation for the mundane as well. growing up just means you can enjoy life twice as much now. you can get really excited about a new stuffed animal AND about a new kitchen sponge. peace and love

[concerningwolves]

You get bigger so you can store even MORE love and appreciation for the world inside of you

[monsieurenjlolras]

It means you'll be at the antique mall looking at a coffee table and thinking "blorbo and Squimbus would LOVE this coffee table"

[creepyknees]

you’re not sure why, but this feels familiar

[ohhgingersnaps]

I kindly declined a social invitation because I know I will be socially burned out and need the downtime. and also I do genuinely think I might have other pressing commitments that take priority during the given timeframe. everyone please clap

[greelin]

did perfectionism ever truly protect you from harm or neglect as a child though. ultimately. Lol

[greelin]

[REALLY NORMAL AND WELL-ADJUSTED VOICE] well you never know maybe it COULD have saved me. if i ever actually achieved perfection. it could have happened then. if i was actually ever enough. Which i was not

per anon’s request, i present to you THE best version of beatrice’s monologue in much ado about nothing. i thought about cropping this but decided this scene must be watched in its full glory

[x-soapbox-x]

What’s really cool about this is this is the first version of this scene that I’ve seen where the tone doesnt whiplash wildly which is so hard to do!!! Bc it’s a scene that comes directly after some rough public shaming and it is both a love confession scene and a scene where a woman asks someone to kill someone and the love confession IS funny but Beatrice’s monologue is not. A lot of the other versions- even well beloved ones like the 2011 version with David Tennant and Catherine Tate- do this scene and there is emotional whiplash, audiences often laughing when Beatrice begs Benedict to kill Claudio. To see it done this way??? Oh my god the line read on “if a were a man, I would eat his heart in the marketplace” DESERVED that cheet

i do wonder what stella's original plan was
