Shanie's Creation Masterlist!

Updated 03/16/2025

Masterlist of all the fanworks I have out there.

Quick Link: My Steenerico Disney Fic, "The Happiest Luchador on Earth" is located HERE, while the rest of the in-universe stories, "Of Masks, Mice, and Men" are located HERE.

Quick Link #2: I started a SUBSTACK! It's where I post the stories that are NOT fanfic. Those stories are much less formal and are basically written like I'm telling you the story directly. Which I am. Because they're the stories of my life as told by me.

For anyone interested, both THLoE and OMMaM make up what I refer to as "The Generico!verse" due to the fact that the entire universe hinges on the singular notion that El Generico is NOT Sami Zayn and, in fact, Sami Zayn never existed in this universe, nor does Kevin Owens. There are only Steen and Generico in this universe and the stories are about the two of them meeting, falling in love, realizing they are in love, realizing how much they need each other, and really, just the two of them navigating the world together as best friends and eventual lovers, trying to get by despite their various neurodivergencies.

The rest of the fanworks are beneath cut

ADDITION FOR 9/20/25 I have added a new series called "You've Got A Friend In Me"

I'm going to start trying to write again, but no guarantees. YGaFiM is the "Generico!verse" as seen through the eyes of Becky Lynch (At this point still known as Rebecca) who they met in 2006 and became fast friends... only to lose her to career ending injury almost IMMEDIATELY. I hope to have thes stories up when I can. Hope maybe someone likes it.

I really love the wilderness years of Doctor Who. I think from now on when shows get canceled more companies should throw their content to the wolves and watch in horror as the starved fan base go insane and write like a thousand books in five years that irreversibly ruin any semblance of canon, and also make zero sense.

Happy Pride!

Every pride, you must reblog this. No exceptions

thesaltofcarthage

I love that four different people on my feed scheduled this joyous person to reblog by 8am on June 1. I look forward to seeing this a dozen more times today.

quasi-normalcy

I think that Xena, for all of its ridiculousness and cheesiness, did a better job of conveying the allure of evil than just about any other series I've ever seen. Like it understands that violence, no matter how justifiably it starts out, is addictive, and that hatred poisons you until you can't feel real joy anymore, and it's strange to me that I've never seen it laid out so simply elsewhere.

rachandroll

...so THAT'S what sleeper cell activation feels like. Because yes, YES, LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS, because Xena is such an interesting lightning-in-a-bottle-case study! While I would never discount the work done by the writers, Xena as a show is almost perfectly positioned both historically and structurally to consistently explore that theme.

The first puzzle piece is that Xena was a syndicated show at the tail end of syndication's total dominance of a distribution model. For those too young to remember a time when ongoing plots and prestige dramas weren't the norm, syndication is big part of why older television shows almost entirely kept plots contained to one or two episodes rather than having them span seasons. See, when a show is syndicated, it is licensed out to individual television stations/affiliates to be aired as reruns. The individual station chooses when to air them and in what order, and whether to just skip episodes they don't like in favor of the ones most likely to draw eyeballs, etc etc. The more a show is licensed, the more money you make on it, so there is an incentive to make each episode standalone to make them appealing to each station by enabling them to toss on whatever episodes they like without it being a problem for the casual viewer. Also, before streaming, easy access to dvds and episode recording, and the like, a show could not assume that even its fans would have necessarily have seen every episode. "Catching up" was not an easy thing, and reserved for the most dedicated, doing shit like physically mailing bootleg tapes! Therefore, shows needed to have a consistent formula that didn't lock out the person who couldn't watch last week for whatever reason. Characters remained within more of a status quo. Xena is a "monster of the week" style show, like X-Files. I mention X-Files intentionally, because it was one of the first to really break that no-ongoing-plots structure, and that shift affected its contemporaries, like Xena, who also started to follow suit.

That alone doesn't account for Xena being so primed to explore those themes, of course. Even staying within the same fictional universe, Hercules (which Xena is a spin-off of) and Young Hercules don't even come close to Xena's complexity on the subject. But that's because Xena's premise is perfectly positioned to interact with those practical constraints for this outcome in a way those shows aren't. The status quo that syndication demands remain mostly in intact is that 1) Xena was evil and really good at it, 2) she is trying to do good in the world now as penance but can never undo what she has done. Every episode is about Xena trying to save people while dealing with the consequences of her actions as a warlord. The fact that she was evil cannot be changed or diluted nor can the fact that she must continue trying to redeem herself, otherwise the show is over or is unrecognizable to the casual viewer. But this is also an action show, sometimes cartoonishly so, so she must also be fighting consistently! The core spectacle is violence and the core story is why violence is often evil. There is an inherent tension there that the writers either needed to interrogate earnestly or ignore, and they chose the honest, interesting route. They gave Xena a costar who is innocent and principled but loves Xena, and had her always asking why and trying to understand how Xena could be that person, while being put under similar pressures herself. They had Xena continue to use the tools she has, including violence, for good ends, and wrestled with the answers as to why that was ok, why the violence she did then and the violence she did now were different—and sometimes decided they weren't. They showed Xena struggling with falling back into those old habits because they are seductive and easy.

If someone asked "are there so many episodes of Xena where you find out someone tried to get her to change her ways many years ago and failed because that is a really great standalone premise, or because violence as a tool and power and vengeance as motivators are corruptive and hard to stop using once you start," the answer is yes. The show is cyclical because violence is. But also because it is syndicated.

It's fucking rad and interesting.

I do find it strange how I see so many posts on this site about how they wish they could kudos more than once on ao3 which is real I wish I could too but then won't reblog posts here even once! You can "kudos" more than once with reblogging! Even if it's with a string of emojis! The like to reblog ratio on this site is so depressing you not on insta/tiktok/etc, you are the algorithm! The only time I see old school Tumblr these days is when people are purposely getting notes to number for fun like with 10k notes post to me curses. I genuinely wish to know why people don't reblog on the reblog site? Fear of being annoying is what I see most and my siblings in hellsite, you are on the annoying site so:

Reblogging this again because Maxil and Astra completely slipped my mind right now and I feel heretic.

Well at least Lalla had an explanation? XD

# i kind of want to add those actors that were in like 12 different episodes

Ok, I’ll start, then, he’s my favourite trio of recurring actors

AND

(I was going to add Jacquie Hill too but people were faster, heh)

waywardchangeling

Some of them sure took their time to appear again, but when they did they got level up in rank Others came back quite a lot And some even sticked to the theme of the episodes Some really took their time But that’s okay, inbetween the two he even was Biggs But, you know, different franchise… And let’s not forget: aaand…

greyhoundone

And some of them lost their rank and title

#The fun facts that #Romana and The 12th Doctor regenerating into people they had previously encountered #Was referenced as intentional in-plot #And addressed directly addressed in the show #But I don't believe they ever explained Colin Baker's return as the 6th Doctor #Also. The 'old man' in the Titanic episode WAS WILF #That is also directly confirmed when he encounters the Doctor with Donna #And 'Clara Oswin Oswald' showing up two times prior to meeting Clara was FULLY intentional. as written #AS part of the character's backstory #That is later explained in the show as the "impossible girl' story #But the rest of these are basically handwaves #For actor reuse or 'we were hoping you didn't notice'#Doctor Who
