If you're seeing this post at one point, you liked and followed Achievement Hunter and Rooster Teeth's content. You may have been a big fan. They were a large part of people's formative lives on the internet. There were certainly a lot of ups and downs too. It seems that book is coming to a close now though.
One of the best parts about Rooster Teeth was always the community and how they inspired a wave of young people to make cool things. Art, writing, animation, photoshop skills and more, I feel like we learn a lot about how to create, and get our feet wet often through fandom. I know that's how I did anyway.
Consider reblogging this post if you wish to share a story about your journey and RT. I will try and share them here as well.
As for myself? I can still be found most places on the internet at rosediode. I'll keep it short and simple; I would not be the artist I am today without the support of the Rooster Teeth community nurturing me as a teen to learn, create, and experiment so I can do what I do today.
In all things, if these are the last words here, let them be a new beginning.

A/N: I changed the name of the story to "Our Summer" because I just reread the title and I'm like "That's what I had the file named on my laptop, how fugly is that for a name for a story?" So I'm extremely sorry for ANY confusion, feel free to message me about how dumb and confusing I am. Alas, enjoy! I REALLY HOPE YOU GUYS READ THE NOTES!
Gavin’s hands reached Michael’s face pulling him in for a long slow kiss. Michael jumped up, wrapping his legs around the lanky Brit’s waist. Gavin’s frame leans against the wall and he holds Michael tight. The two kiss hungrily, trying to forget that their skin kept them apart, letting their kiss melt the two of them together.
“I love you, Gavin.” Michael said between kisses.
“You’re my Michael. I’ll always love you, ok?” Gavin said through tears that began running down his face as he heard the front door open.
“She’s here.” Michael says and holds Gavin tighter.
“Michael?” Lindsay calls from downstairs.
“Kiss me, Gavin.” Michael begs in a whisper. He and Gavin rejoin at the lips, both of their face wet from tears, not sure which of them are crying anymore, or most likely both.
"Come help me with the bags, hun!" His wife’s voice echos throughout the silent house.
“Michael.” Gavin whimpers as the redhead unhooks himself from around Gavin.
“You have to go. I’m so sorry.” Michael says and walks across the room to open the window.
“Michael.” Gavin reaches for him.
“Come on, Gav.” Michael holds out a hand. Gavin crosses the room and kisses Michael for one last gentle time.
“I love you.” Michael pokes his head out the window to watch Gavin climb down the roof of the back porch and safely jump down into the grass.
“I love you, my Michael.” Gavin says up to his lovely redhead.
“Goodbye, Gavin.”
“I love you, Michael. It has really been a journey.” Gavin says. Michael tosses down Gavin’s bag. Once the bag is on the Brit’s back, he walks to the end of the street before sticking out his long thin arm and pointing him thumb up, hoping the next car that comes up would be willing to drive him to a train. A few cars pass until one stops. The window rolls down and a man with tattoos grazing both of his arms looks at Gavin from the driver’s seat.
“Who’s that Daddy?” A little girl asks from the back.
“Dunno, Millie. But it looks like he needs a ride.” The man says.
“I’m Geoff.” He extends an arm and opens the door to Gavin. “You’re not a murderer right?”
“I should ask you the same.” Gavin hops in.
“Haha, well I’m not. But my daughter here is the master mind behind all of this.” Geoff laughs.
Gavin had originally planned on taking a train to somewhere new. But once Geoff talked to Gavin about having him live with his family and start a new life, Gavin took the opportunity. He stayed with the Ramsey’s and loved it very much. Soon, Geoff had set Gavin up with a new job in his office. Gavin was excited. As he walked into the office he stopped dead in his tracks.
Summary: Michael just wants to hold Gavin close. But why can’t Gavin just shut up?
Pairing: Michael x Gavin, Mavin

A/N: So, I have a head ache. ALSO, THESE LYRICS THAT THEY SING ARE FROM OWL CITY’S SONG METEOR SHOWER. I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR THE LYRICS, DON’T SUE ME DEAR GOD. K, thanks :)
Michael had his eyes closed, trying to drift off to sleep. It was late, for normal people anyway. It was about two in the morning and Gavin had just pulled Michael through a movie marathon, resulting in Michael having a head ache. Gavin couldn’t stop grinning though, replaying scenes from the movies in his head.
“Remember when-” Gavin began but Michael cut him off with a long “shhhhh”. Gavin pouted then perked up again. “Or when-”
“Gavin, please. My head. Can we just be quiet for…like, the rest of the night?” Michael asked sincerly. Gavin nodded, noting his seriousness.
“Do you need me to go get you your pill for your headache?” Gavin asked shifting his weight to get up but Michael pulls him back down.
“No, no. I just really need to be close to you right now.” Michael kept his eyes close.
“Ok.” Gavin kisses Michael’s jaw. Michael gives him a smile then his face relaxes again.
“Michael?” Gavin asks, causing his boyfriend to grimace at the sound of his voice.
“What…?” Michael asked, even though he really didn’t give a fuck at this point.
“Can we sing our song?” Gavin looked at Michael and he grinned.
“Tomorrow.” Michael says.
“Sing it now, Michael.” Gavin begged.Michael wraps his arms around Gavin.
“Only if you’re gonna sing your bits too. I don’t wanna sing alone like a sappy mother fucker.” Michael peered at Gavin from behind his glasses. Gavin’s face lit up.
“I will, I swear.” Gavin crossed his finger over his heart.
“Well, alright then.” Michael took a big breath and sighed it out. Gavin bit his lip in anticipation. “I can finally see…”
“That you’re right here beside me.” Gavin’s accent made Michael giggle when he sang.
“I am not my own.” Michael ran his hand over Gavin’s sandy brown hair.
“For I have been made new.” Gavin did his part, Michael took Gavin’s hand and kissed his knuckles.
“Please don’t let me go.” Michael sang softly.
“I desperately need you.” Gavin finished and held his boyfriend closely. It was quiet for a moment before Gavin spoke again. “That’s our song, right Michael?” Gavin tilts his chin up to look at Michael. His boyfriend’s eyes are closed, and soft snores replace the silence. Gavin smiles and sits up. He takes off Michael’s glasses and rests them on the nightstand near their bed. As he rises from the bed, Michael rolls onto his side, facing the wall. Gavin turns the light out and crosses the room back towards the bed and he forms the big spoon as he wraps his arm around Michael.
“I love you, Michael.” Gavin murmurs and yawns.
“Gavin.” Michael says.
“Are you awake? Can we talk now?” Gavin asks, finding it hard to shut up as usually.
“You’re my boy.” Michael says then soon begins snoring again.
So I'm in the mood for some emotional mavin fanfic. (: and by that I mean either: -really sad (not abusive..more like character death or depression) to the point that I could tear up and cry or -something really cute that'll make me blush like an idiot while reading it. Any suggestions? Please&thanks!
