Flufftober 2023! And it was a banger.
My Buddie collection for Flufftober can be found here.
Upcoming Events and Projects for 2024
Fics I'm going to try and get out in the upcoming year:
Almost complete:
lazarus rising - Buck needs space after the lightning strike. Eddie doesn't understand, not really, but he lets him go. But when Buck comes home, he finds out that something has gone terribly, terribly wrong.
Already started:
magical realism fic (Buck thinks he's allergic to Eddie. Spoiler warning: he's not).
vesper - inspired by the poker episode, Athena asks the boys to go undercover in a poker ring. Think Casino Royale.
Gravedigger fic - fans of Bones will immediately know what I'm talking about here, amirite?
not like this (title TBC) - based on the New Girl kiss (IYKYK)
snow shovel fic - AU where Buck and Eddie are neighbours. it's a whole thing.
you're in my arms (and all the world is calm) sequel - Chenford fic, sequel is from Lucy's POV (and answers the cliffhanger from YIMA)
a Davrick (Schitt's Creek) piece inspired by the 9-1-1: Lone Star episode 'Saving Grace'.
Ideas/planned fics (basically the Notes app on my phone):
No Nut November fic - my actual November turned hectic, but if all goes well I'll still write this one because the plot makes me giggle.
Multi-chapter AU featuring past lives, reincarnation, and soul mates.
night strewn salt across the sky sequel - featuring Barista!Buck and Nurse!Eddie's First Date!
when words and deeds are in accord (my whole world is transformed) sequel - featuring established Buddie fluffiness. With singing!
apocalypse fic - snow. so much snow.
I have had so much fun writing in the 9-1-1 fandom this year - I switched from the HP fandom due to Reasons, and the welcome and love I've been shown has been truly lovely.
Thank you so much to everyone who has read/left kudos/commented/mentioned me in a post or sent me an ask - y'all are amazing.

Introducing SC Mediafest!
Inspired by 2020's Reel Fest, with permission from the lovely moderators of that fest, we're opening up inspiration to include movies and much more.
Got an AU idea—inspired by a book, movie, TV show, song, artwork, or more—that you've always wanted to read or write? How about a fic set in canon, post-canon, or loosely-inspired by canon that features our favorite characters enjoying any piece of media?
If you've always wanted to see Patrick introduce Star Wars to David, read an AU in which Twyla is the Little Mermaid, or see Stevie reluctantly co-organize the RMG book club with Ruth, we've got the fest for you. Give us Alexis organizing an Ocean's Eight-inspired heist, or Jake Tucker Must Die. If it's inspired by media or features our characters enjoying media, you're in the right place!
Important Dates
Prompts open January 17
Claiming begins January 31
Works are due March 20
Posting begins March 23
Please help us spread the word. We'll see you very soon!

dan levy was nominated for 4 Emmys (including the one for Schitts Creek as best comedy) so fuck the rest of 2020 except that
my sister and I were watching davids dance at the end of ‘the olive branch’, and she was like ‘it’s like he’s doing a mating dance’
