Hello lovely!

I thought it might be useful to have a lil bulletin board of general info, so here we are! My name's Soph (hey! hi! hello!), I'm MesserMoon on Ao3, and you can find my stories here:

Choices - (Explicit, Jegulus Wolfstar Jily, multi-chapter, Completed) People make mistakes, but they also make choices. It’s important to James, that difference. He does his best not to confuse the two.

Chosen - (Explicit, Wolfstar, multi-chapter, WIP) A story for the ones left behind aka Choices sequel following Sirius, Remus, Mary and Narcissa after the events of Halloween 1981

Here's Looking at You Kid - (Explicit, George/Blaise Drarry, multi-chapter, Completed) George wanders into a bar. Nothing is ever the same.

Kill Your Darlings - (Explicit, College au, Jegulus Wolfstar Marylily Rosekiller, multi-chapter, Completed) Years after Regulus loses his brother they're reunited, and as he struggles to figure out where he fits in Sirius's life he also struggles not to get lost in the impossible feelings he has for Sirius's best friend.

Of His Bones - (explicit, Pirate/Royalty au, Jegulus, Wolfstar, Dorlene, Nobleflower, Rosekiller, Completed) Once upon a time there was a pirate, who fell in love with a king

As It Was - (explicit, Salazar Slytherin/Godric Gryffindor, one-shot) their journey from friends, to lovers, to enemies

Don't Forget the Bubbles - (explicit, jegulus, canon compliant, one-shot) Regulus just wants to bathe in peace, but James Potter has other ideas . . .

In Another Life, Maybe I Was You - (General, Drarry, one-shot) Harry and Draco are having problems, also, the resurrection stone is back and so is James.

Killer - (explicit, Rosekiller, background jegulus, canon compliant, WIP) Every story needs a monster, right? aka a Rosekiller origin story

Holding - (explicit, original fiction, sports/found family/mlm romance, WIP) The thing about king making, is they never mention the guillotine until after they’ve crowned you. This is a story about hockey. By the way.

the ships are burning - (explicit, heated rivalry, hollanov, iliad au, WIP) Ilya Rozanov, best of the Greeks, son of the sea nymph Irina, Shane Hollander, greatest warrior of Troy, respected prince. Two heroes who find themselves on opposite sides of one of the greatest wars in the ancient world, end up forming an unexpected connection which turns into a decades long romance, but what will they do when fate finally catches up to them?

Constantly obsessed with the concept of a man forced to be a myth. What do you do when every step you take is embedded into the text. Every word you say prose to read. You're part of something bigger than yourself. The narrative tugs you along like water currents. There is no time to rest, to be human. You must be great, you must be legend

"no means no" chant begins in raleigh after carter hart plays the puck

[canesbian]

prev -- I appreciate your tags; these are also things I was thinking about when I saw canes fans talking about what to chant at Hart, and I do agree on the signs/jokes about "how does it feel" etc. being gross.

on the chant, specifically, though: the conclusion I ultimately came to was that it's already been trivialized and normalized. we've now had months of national broadcasts praising Hart relentlessly, framing him as a redemption arc; and months of vegas silencing and preventing any press from even asking questions.

obviously, chants are not where this should stop, but hockey media has done eveyrthing it can to prevent the conversation. and it was very moving to me now, during the most watched games of the year -- the literal finals -- every person watching that broadcast (and all those coward announcers) could clearly hear the crowd chanting the most well known anti-rape slogan there is.

So even if not everyone is chanting with proper motives, it still forces it out of the darkness, and it is also a sign to those few in hockey media who have challenged the narrative that despite how few of them there are, there is a much larger group in the fanbase that still gives a shit and appreciates their continued stand.

#cw sexual assault#even if that number is overrepresented by the chanters.. idk. i just kept thinking about how#people who don't normally tune into hockey are hearing that and might look up what the league can't actually cover up#Hart is reminded that despite the efforts of hockey culture protectionism. nothing has been forgotten.#it is also worth noting when there were rumors that the canes were even considering hart that fans immediately organized to voice outrage#and no offer was made after i've seen an estimated 30% of STM threatened to cancel#that is to say - it's also not like this is an uninformed fanbase just looking for something to chant#it's a fanbase that specifically organized to keep him off of our team#and the fans who were there who were unaware Learned — saw a few tweets from people saying they just learned and couldnt believe#he was allowed to play — from the booing st his name announced; and so chanted. etc

i am having a hard time writing this next chapter just because i don't know exactly what needs to happen and how many boring logistics i can cut out while still having it make sense etc. etc. BUT i am having a great time writing fake sidney crosby

the thing I love most about how tumblr users use tags is that it’s like what if a social media website had a footnotes system

[siriusold-deactivated20181013]

Ares was the Greek god of war and perhaps the most unpopular of all the Olympian gods because of his quick temper, aggressiveness, and unquenchable thirst for conflict.
