Randomly posting what catches my fancy. Multiple fandoms, rotating hyperfixations. Old enough to have been here since 2014. I am sparksinthedark on AO3. Side blog for Sonic stuff is bing-pot-brain.tumblr.com

MISSION: Be Normal About That Thing

STATUS: [FAILED]

[sparksinthedark33]

I mean, if you have to try and figure out how to be normal you've already failed...

[sparksinthedark33]

The furniture finally arrived after several delays and us camping out in a mostly empty house for almost a week! So delighted to finally get unpacking!

A three-circle venn-diagram where the circles are "sex workers", "the furry community", and "people working in morgues". I don't know what the overlap parts are.

[flufflogic]

Fourth circle needed: IT workers

[homunculus-argument]

You say that with such confidence that I am compelled to trust your vision. Personally I have no idea where this is going.

[trytocallmecal]

i'd say the overlap between "sex workers" and "people who work in morgues" is probably "seeing naked strangers a lot"

[homunculus-argument]

"professional handling of bodies of strangers"?

Putting my neck out for you folks here

"ugh forced marriage? this plot is so toxic"

That's the kink

"they can barely/can't control themself from ravishing their partner? How is that portrayed as ROMANTIC??"

That's the kink

"why is the plot so fixated on how tiny the main character is compared to the love interest?"

Grisps your shoulders so firmly

Buddy you're not gonna believe this

some vampire/in rut!werehog sketches to go along with my vampire/in rut!werehog fic, written for @sparksinthedark33 for the @sonadowexch

I saw werehog/vampire and yearning in my prompt, and started working on the outline right away. Ended up being longer than I thought it would be, but I had a lot of fun working on it!

And thank you to Quill for running the event! So glad I joined, it was such a good time

[sparksinthedark33]

This fic was perfect! Exactly what I was hoping for! And the additional artwork was an absolute treat!

... so true.

[creekwyrm]

how to tell mutual they intrigue me greatly and i would be honoured to be allowed to grow a friendship where i may study them up close without saying any of that

[creekwyrm]

how to tell mutual i know i havent interacted with them directly in like five months but i still think of them highly and semifrequently and their art is still a source of inspiration for my own

[larchwood]

@brainfuzz - I feel like this could be a prompt for a C&R or Nickels fic.

Who's the true believer, and who's just there for the beer?

I feel like they all kicked a ball around during deployments, either from sheer boredom, or a "wining hearts and minds" schtick with the local kids (Kelly). But who would be the true fan? They were all competitive assholes.

[sparksinthedark33]

I'm so happy to see Cut & Run stuff on my dash! I think they'd cheer and drink beer, but soccer just can't cut it compared to baseball!
