Do you have any progress updates on all I want is just to live (amongst the H2O) or is it abandoned??
Asking the hard questions, anon😕
To be 100% honest, I don't know what will happen to that fic. I've had no motivation to work on it for the last 6 months, but I also don't want to give up on it completely.
Wish I had a better answer for you :/ but it's nice to know that there are people out there still hoping for and update :) here's hoping for a surprise boit of inspiration that allows me to finish it 🤞
*waves enthusiastically* Hello h2o fandom, if you would like to reblog this post with a snippet of an old or new fic that you worked or are working on reblog this post with a little excerpt of it!! Even if you think it’s really old or bad writing I want to seee (my example is below the cut)
No pressure tags: @charlotterenaissance @opalsiren @themakomoonpool @noordinarymermaid @dericelem @starberry-soup & everyone else can reblog :))
Mine here (I know it’s very dramatic I was having some ✨emotions ✨ when writing this I know it’s bad lol)
“It’s the air that escapes from her lips that trail to the surface of the sun-sparkled water that she knows is above, but is far too deep to see it. Not for her that is, depths like this would crush a human’s breath from their lips as the water pressed its cold fingers heavy on their lungs, compressing. But here she was, an anomaly and alive when she should be dead. Quite a dark thought for the sunshine girl, her green eyes open, the usual light filtering through the water to move on her skin gone as she was too far down. Here it was dark and her eyes caught the occasional shell in the expanse of sand, a little piece of the ocean to mayhaps take home.
No matter how cheerful she seemed, thoughts like these used to come like everything else that she disliked, inevitable and another thing to endure. But this time, for the first time she had friends, something she still couldn’t believe as she said it out loud a few months ago. She could push away the thoughts of being alone and desolate, a lost person calling out to find her place. Here, there were people that knew sea caves and swimming but also terrifying full moons with the loss of self control , distrust of everyone around you, isolation and fear of water. People so alike to her like no one else before it was like staring into reflections of herself, that we are the same. It was Rikki and Cleo, her first people who were her anchors that she held on to the second she could.”

Alice knew that by all accounts, she was being pretty stupid. As a doctorate student of the ripe old age of twenty-five, she certainly should’ve known better than to flirt with her boss. But in her defence, Dr. McCartney wasn’t actually her boss.

i've finally completed the epilogue of silver triptych (the 1950s mermaid fic) and you can read it here! so glad to give closure to this story that's been in the works for a while now <3
"Yeah. Cool," Max tells Gracie, swallowing thickly. "No rules. Sure." At that her red lips stretch into a smile. Quietly, a small piece of Max's heart tears itself away from the whole. / Or, in which an ardent scientist falls in love with a free-spirited mermaid. Max x Gracie. Angsty fluff. Pre-series. Canon-compliant. Complete.
chapter 9 of "silver triptych", my 1950s mermaid fic, is finally out! you can read it here.
chapter summary: Gracie's relationship with Max begins to strain, as she is still unable to accept her mermaid state. When she finds out about an upcoming planetary alignment, she realizes that it might be exactly what she needs to return to "normal". In the wake of this revelation (and amidst strife in Julia's family life), she and Louise are forced to reexamine their future.
