Life's Loops

[seamurai-all-ahead]

Um, yeah... ahem... hello!

Do you have the feeling when you write something and don't feel like it's a full-bodied fic, so you don't want to post it to your ao3 account? Well, me too.

So I decided to create this little space to boost my creative process and have a place to put all of those thoughts, pieces of dialogue and scenes into. It will be multifandom and may come in cycles - loops, if you will. 😏

And let's put out some disclaimers before we continue:

All of my posts and creations are intended for 18+ audiences. Just in case.

Please, do not repost my writing/posts without permission and credit.

English is not my native language, but I try to improve every day. Please, be kind.

If something I write/post is not your cup of tea, scroll past. I'm not here to wage wars.

I'm kinda sad that I have to add this one, but it's only right in these dark times:

I do NOT use genAI at any stage of my creative process. I do NOT allow to use my writing/posts to interact with genAI in any way.

I also have an ao3 profile here: https://archiveofourown.org/users/MrValentine

You can find some of the works I posted there and might post in the future. The main language of those works is Russian but I'm planning on translating them into English.

Main blog: @piney-winey-socks

Reminder to self: A file folder of outlines and character notes and half-written scenes is the equivalent of an artist’s sketchbook and holds just as much value to the creative process.

If a framed canvas isn’t the only worthwhile expression of visual art, then a fully edited and polished piece of significant length is not the only worthwhile expression of writing.

A Treat

“What, he's not getting a treat? Has he been a bad boy?” Danny asked, struggling not to laugh.

Puzzled, the vet glanced at Steve. 

“Did he pee on the floor? Did he bite you? Come on, what did he do?” Williams was definitely enjoying the confused look on the vet’s face.

McGarrett was just silently watching, because he knew that any attempt to talk back would be met with a new avalanche of jokes. When they closed the door to the exam room and went down the corridor, Steve broke the silence.

“Eddie is okay, thanks for asking. The doc said he’s recovering well, so we have nothing to worry about."

“Wonderful news," Danny smiled.

“And by the way, I wouldn’t say 'no' to a treat…” said McGarrett, stopping.

“Oh, we could go back if you want." Williams pointed to the door with his thumb. “I’m sure dog biscuits are delicious.”

“I was hoping you would have something for me." Steve scanned Danny's face, pausing at his lips.

“Have you been a good boy?” Williams smirked.

McGarrett leaned closer to Danny, their lips almost touching.

“I've been the best…”

The kiss was long and passionate. It would have lasted even longer, but Eddie jerked the leash—he didn’t want to spend a minute longer in the vet clinic. Steve reluctantly stepped away from Danny.

“Okay, fine, we’re getting out of here,” Steve reassured Eddie. Gently smiling to his partner, he moved to the exit.

“He’s so unbearable sometimes." Danny shook his head and followed after.

"Looks like this time luck abandoned you, old friend", Liam smiled slightly while holding Shay's bloody hand.

"You know this well, Liam..." Shay coughed shuddering from the pain. "I make my own luck..."

He grabbed Liam by the collar of his shirt and pulled as hard as he could. Their lips collided in a kiss, longing and scared. Scared that there's not enough time, that it might be too late...

Their faces were so close now: Liam could feel Shay's shallow warm breath on his lips; Shay could see Liam's surprised eyes.

"All these years I was thinking about the things I've done," Shay was still holding Liam's collar in his weakened fingers. "And I regretted only one... I've never said that I loved you."

Liam's eyes widened.

"Every time I was hunting assassins, I prayed that you wouldn't be the target of my blade. So far, your destiny protected you, shielded you from me. And now, we've come to the bitter end," Shay smiled, but his eyes were sad.
