Project Blue Book S2E01 "The Roswell Incident Part I"

please feel free to talk about any of your middle aged gays wips I would LOVE to hear about any of them 👀💖

Beloved, this is literally my love language and you KNOW that 💖💖💖 A few of these are either not quite middle-aged or only one of the two members is, but here we go:

Allen Hynek & Michael Quinn, Project Blue Book- Listen, I know Allen Hynek was a real person, but the version of him in this TV series is very fictional and my version is even more so 🤣My top WIP right now is an aromantic-Allen fic which I am going to tentatively say is ALMOST done. It's what I'm usually working on in sprints (and I'm going to say something bold here: there's one passage in this that may be some of my favorite words I've ever written.) This pairing has the cocky fighter pilot/nerdy professor dynamic we've all been waiting for. The show is enjoyable if not outstanding, cancelled 1 season before it should have ended, and the fandom is not nearly big enough.

Irving & Burt, Severance- The ULTIMATE canon yearning! I've been working on a fic about them for months, but the fact that there's so much mystery associated with this show means that trying to write a romantic interaction with them outside of Lumon is proving complicated, lol. I've written pretty much all of it except the part that requires any explanation of the logistics of this show's universe. IDK, I am just deeply drawn to the vulnerability of two people whose knowledge of each other is confined to this very limited existence, stepping outside of that place's boundaries and discovering each other in the process. This fic has Irv and Burt flirting over classical music as well; between pieces I'm going to mention in the fic and other non-classical pieces that remind me of the pairing, I'm tempted to include a playlist along with this when I publish it.

Ted Lasso & Trent Crimm, Ted Lasso- Okay, okay, I don't have any solid WIPs about these two at the moment (there's one I started a long time ago that is in sleep mode until I figure out what I want to do with it), but Season 3 premieres March 15th and Trent Crimm apparently plays a "significant role" in it, so you KNOW I will have ideas in the very near future. I enjoy writing these two so much; they have such unique voices and that is so much fun to play with as a writer. Plus this trope is like grumpy/sunshine if the sunshine was secretly a clinically anxious mess of a human and the grumpy's harsh exterior was only a facade and he was unexpectedly very willing to have an open mind and see the good in someone.

Murray Bauman & Alexei, Stranger Things- (Alexei probably isn't quite "middle aged" here, but I'm including this anyway) Another underrated pairing, but I love their dynamic. Two people on opposite sides who could very easily be bitter enemies, but who (in the show, in canon) instead bond with each other so quickly! They snark and sass, but Murray is quite literally the only person who speaks Alexei's language, in personality as well as in actual words. I've already written fic for them, and I thought that was gonna be it, but I have more to say, lol

There are so many more middle-aged gays I love but haven't written for too! Truly we are in our best era with all of these wonderful pairings.

Fanfic writer asks: ✅ 🤩 🤗

Ty sm for the ask!!! 💖 x ask here, x prompts here!

✅- What's something that appears in your fics over and over and over again, even if you don't mean to?

Hmmm, maybe little pieces of physical affection? Even when I am writing (or trying to lol) angst, I always manage to find excuses for my characters to touch each other (in fluffy ways!). Maybe it's bc I am a physical affection girl and NONE OF OTHER THE PEOPLE IN MY LIFE ARE so I could be projecting.

🤩- Who is your favorite character to write?

That's so tough. I rarely ever write more than two fics for any one fandom/ship, so it makes it a little harder for me really get familiar. If I had to pick one, it might be Captain Quinn from Project Blue Book. My magnum opus in his pov has been in the works for years but you can read another shorter fic for pbb here if you're interested! This one is from Allen's perspective, however... whoops!

I also have an unpublished Athelstan/Ragnar reincarnation fic that is a BLAST to write from Ragnar's POV, because he's such a volatile and passionate character and also just so in love with Athelstan that my fingers almost trip over themselves trying to write words from his lips.

🤗- What advice would you give to new fanfic writers that are just getting started?

DO WHAT YOU LOVE! You should write fanfic for yourself first and foremost. Let your passion take center stage! The first things I ever wrote were a complete mess of me joining half a dozen different couples across multiple fandoms all in a book club together... I even had a rotary schedule for who got what month. It was insane! And embarrassing! And aimed at nobody else but me. I loved it. JUST KEEP WRITING! :)

Man, I miss Project Blue Book, they can't keep canceling shows where the 2 males leads have blatant sexual chemistry, it's cruel!
