Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💖💖💖
Sorry it took me so long to reply. I'm actually very insecure and I'm never 100% fully satisfied with anything I do, so it was kinda hard for me to answer without letting all the negative self talk come up. Thank you for thinking about me, it really means a lot 🩷
I'm working on being kinder to myself even when the things I do aren't perfect, and to prove it here's my 5 favourite fics I wrote:
Do you think Adrien is the only problem the show has?
Nah, if he was the only problem in the show I'd enjoy it more 😂
The thing is, I think the show did dirty to most of the characters. Adrien has so much potential, but it all the show does is praising him for how "perfect and amazing" he is and it's disappointing. We know he's controlled by his father, but it's like going in circles (also I hated how S5 ended).
I will not get into a rant of how romantic feelings are portrayed in the show, we have some good examples but the main couple's relationship isn't among those imo
Honestly, the biggest problem of the show is the pacing. They add a lot of new things, but most of them are hardly explained and it feels like they're simply throwing it at the audience, starting from Marinette's cultural background to whatever there is between Gabriel and Tomoe...
My dear darling Airi, I know what you're talking about and I really really wish I could share more about that Eurovision fic, but unfortunately I haven't been able to work on my wips in the last months and none of the bits I've written is worth sharing. Fear not though, I'm pretty sure I'm going to have more free time during the summer so I can work on all my fics, that one included!
Thank you so much for your interest and for being so supportive and patient ❤️
Ooh you have your asks open!! 😁 Can you tell me about you're still my favorite tune?
Oooh it's actually something really cheesy and for now I've just made a few notes about it. It basically begins with Marinette and Luka breaking up and later finding each other again after years. I already know how to end it, the problem is how can I get there 😫
The more I think about things in regards to the series, especially Chat Blanc and the latest episode, the more Lukanette makes complete sense. I used to be able to tolerate the Love Square at least but now I can't see how the series can end on a happy note with it.
This AU is based on the prompt "You get flowered tattoos wherever your soulmate receives a scar". I've summed Marinette being very accident prone to Tikki being only partially able to heal Ladybug's wounds after a fight (she is healed but the scars remain), and a very clueless Luka wakes up every morning to find new flowers across his body. It's mainly on the upper arms area, and they're so many that Luka gets a snake tattoed across his arms to at least break the continuity of the apple blossoms decorating them. Marinette doesn't dare to hope that he's her soulmate, until Juleka tells her that he has a scar under his right foot. I still have to figure out how it goes from there 😆
I have this feeling that my AU where Italy finally wins Eurovision will predict the outcome of this year’s contest but I don’t wanna set my hopes up 😆 btw check Måneskin out if you can because they are awesome and I’m making them the former winners of the Contest in my AU (or: if they can’t win irl I’m making them win anyway xD)
Do you want a snippet from the AU? There you are.
I hope it will make the wait easier, I plan on posting this only when I’m done writing and for now there are only a few rough scenes and a lot of notes so it’s gonna take me a while :( btw I’m really happy that you’re as excited as I am for this AU! Thank you Airi 💖
It was after the first interviews came out that Kitty Section had started to become popular among the fans of the contest. Luka and Rose handled most of the conversation with the interviewers, him answering the questions politely and her chiming in to excitedly say how honoured they were to be representing their country in such a beautiful, beautiful place . The uncomfortable questions were avoided with ease, and as the days passed between one interview and another Luka found himself more comfortable around the cameras, even if he should have been used to them by now. Maybe it was because instead of thinking about the fact that millions of people would be watching him and make fun of him if the words tripped on his tongue, he was more focused on Marinette looking at the whole band with a smile full of pride from the back of the room.
“Can you tell us something more about your performance?” the interviewer asked, his voice breaking Luka from his thoughts.
Luka cleared his throat, but it was Rose who talked in his place and only asked for his contribution when she was sure that he was listening to what she was saying. Somehow, Marinette drew his attention away from the interview more often than usual that day. She was looking at a piece of paper Ruby handed her, and caught her bottom lip between her theeth as she studied what was written on it. As if sharing the room and the bed with her wasn’t enough already.
“… our friend Marinette designed our costumes for us,” he heard Rose say, and his head snapped up. He ignored Ivan’s low chuckle as he took a breath to gain composure, and saw Marinette smile at him shyly.
I can't decide between "Midnight Spaghetti" and "Drunk Talks Part 2"
Okay since I've already given a snipped of Drunk Talks Part 2 here, I'll tell you more about Midnight Spaghetti 😆
This was supposed to be ready by today since I wrote it for this week's sprint challenge, but I've been thinking about changing some stuff and it needs some more work.
The prompt I wrote for was "comfort food" from mlweeklyprompts.
“I need a pot”, Marinette said as she pushed herself on her tiptoes to rummage through the pantry and get the box of spaghetti laying on the higher shelf.
Luka chuckled before leaning in and effortlessly catching the box Marinette needed, handing it to her. She cursed quietly before grabbing the spaghetti from his hand, “You and your stupid tall genes.”
“I’m pretty sure you need help from me and my stupid tall genes, though,” he teased as he set the pot filled with water on the stove. Before Marinette could complain any longer, he turned to press a light kiss on her lips.
