What is your favorite Halloween candy / treat / food?

So we all know I’m a PSL fiend but I need to tell you about PARKIN. 

What’s parkin, Gen? Glad you asked, it’s only the best cake in the universe.

Oatmeal and molasses and ginger and om nom nom nom. Here is a recipe. You need to make it. Right now. Cos you’re going to want to wait for at least 5 days before you eat it so its all gooey and sticky and just perfect.

Y’ALLLLLLLLLLL

Thank you :’) This one is probably my favorite from yesterday’s writing. I’m really glad you liked it too.

Was it as delightful to write the continued pining in friends with renefits as it was to read?

Yes actually, it really was! I started feeling really guilty about dragging things out for as long, but at the same time I couldn’t get enough of torturing people (I’m so sorry). It really was so much fun to write and I cannot state it enough ^_^

Fic reader asks: #9 which of my universes would you most like to live in. This one was tough 1 - Cryptids AU: I'd like to be a ghost pal. Maybe haunt a pocket watch they find at a yard sale or something 2 - Dancer AU: I'd just like to sit in the audience and watch them dance! 3 - Laeti: but like as a galactic citizen reading about them from afar haha 4 - Modern Emperors AU: OK hear me out but I would love to attend the same PTA meetings as Auren Hux

1. Kylux Cryptids AU - Instead of a watch what about being a ghost in a Disney race medal? Kylo could wear it without pride and zero actual running ability (he just can’t find a good enough sports bra poor guy). You could hang out with Millie in the car as well as Dopheld & Tiaan at the apartment!

2. Pointe Shoes and Prana-Bindu (Dancer AU) - 😘

3. Laeti Vescimur Nos Subacturis - There are so many scandalous magazine articles as yet unwritten for them. Like when Hux has his midlife crisis and agrees to do a ten page nude spread in an arty magazine. Leia deserves better.

4. Modern Emperors - here’s why PTA meetings at BB’s school are the best- it takes months for most people to realise BB has two almost identical dads. People have conversations with Auren that Eamon knows nothing about. Auren is oblivious to many social conventions but he’s used to commanding large groups of people so expect to be doing things you 100% did not volunteer for. The school needs funds to renovate the Home Ec suite, suddenly theres a new building going up on site. That guy everyone suspected of abusing his wife suddenly vanished, isn’t that mysterious, no one look in the foundation of the new building. No one ever makes the meeting over run with pointless questions any more, getting glared at by a Hux is a hell of a lot more scary than you’d expect. Absolutely attend their garden party, the mac&cheese is sublime.

Soft Asks: Roasted Marshmallows and Fae <3

🌸Roasted Marshmallows: Your camping with friends! Describe the forest you’re pitching your tent in.

We’re in the rainforest biome at the Eden Project because there’s a roof and you can control the weather. Also they have an area dedicated to chocolate which is where I will be sleeping, in my real bed, inside a bug proof bubble, with a bug net as well, just to be sure. 

🌸Fae: Describe yourself as a fairy

Did you know I’m actually in Labyrinth? ahaha :D 100% accurate portrait of me.

If I had to come up with a new design though, I’d be the Bad Faery of Things Left Unfinished, all broken glass and shattered bone in flyblown paper skin and I leave distracting red footprints wherever I go. I’m shorter than you imagine, and wider than I seem, you think you’ve gotten past me but you’re stuck, everywhere you go there I am. I’m the one that brings humans the almost memories of the things they forgot to do.

For the author asks: 3 and 4 for alternative accommodation!

Alternative Accommodation 

3: What's your favourite line of narration?

“They’d been in the lunch queue- Thanisson poking at the artificial fruit, Matt trying to work out how to maximise his protein allowance-” I dunno why...

4: What's your favourite line of dialogue?

“Mmm…” Thanisson ran his hands up his own wiry sides towards the dusting of hair that grew fine and blonde over his heart.“I wonder what that’s like- the big, strong brute and the underestimated military man.” Thanisson you egotistical prick...

What gave you the idea for life through the glass?

I actually live just across the road from a (disused) church and can see into the abandoned building there; every so often I’ve wondered just how much of my life would be visible from that window across from mine. Just how much can you learn about someone from seeing them from a single frame of reference?

I thought it would be an interesting thing to explore, just getting to know someone from the tiny glimpses into their life.

So I've had a very long week and thinking about Kylo Ren, beautiful idiot, is bringing me a lot of joy right now. How long does he stay with the bird shapeshifters in New Mexico? Does he stay in touch with them? Does he ever admit to Hux that he lived with bird shapeshifters for a month before realizing what they were?

*hugs* I’m so glad he makes you happy :D

He stays for around a year, with a few trips out of town here and there (to deliver that damn dress for a start). It’s a pain to get parts for the Fury. They only made a few thousand so he spends a lot of time doing his dark bidding on the internet or working out how to machine/restore what he can find. Plus he’s enjoying the work, and the people, and the wide open desert to practice his powers. He works out which stones he can use to start fires but compressing them with his brain, how to lift awkward things with his mind, how not to crush delicate things (there were a lot of exploded cacti). 

Yep, he definitely keeps in touch with them. Albuquerque is a good stopping point on Route 66 and he enjoys driving the Fury along that road. A lot of tourists take pictures of it in front of iconic signs and he makes a bit of money on the side that way. He actually takes Hux along there on their first run to the sun (that started with breaking into Disney). Its one of the things that gets Hux hooked on driving, seeing all these famous places he’s heard of but doesn’t really know anything about (I’m not saying Hux is one of the topless Army guys in this cover of Amarillo but...). Though he still doesn’t get why they have to detour to Area 51 every year - aliens aren’t even real (distant hollow Auren laughter).

The shapeshifters don’t know what to make of Hux. They think he’s a bit too stuck up and prissy, but then he spends a night with them blowing shit up in the desert which sort of changes their mind. Hux turns the Army stuff on and off like a tap and they end up deciding that Hux is just as weird as Kylo. But its them who tell Hux that Kylo “lived with them for a year and didn’t know we were birds hahah” much to Kylo’s chagrin and insistence that he just never said anything to avoid embarrassing himself. Which of course makes no sense since from their point of view “Kylo is always embarrassing himself”. Hux damn near falls out of his chair laughing.
