thank you @prim42 for the greatest commission I’ve ever bought. I have a road trip today and it’s all I’m going to be thinking about

Michael took a deep breath, having poured out some of his greatest regrets, and Franklin nodded after staring at him for the longest time, a soft look in his eyes. “Okay, man, yeah. That was a lot but… I get it.” “Yeah?” Michael smiled a bit.

“Yeah. You’re telling me not to repeat my father’s mistakes.” Michael didn’t get the implication immediately, he opened his mouth to ask what Franklin meant, when it hit him. He closed his mouth, almost feeling tears in his eyes, not believing that he was lucky enough to have this kid in his life. Franklin grinned at him, and Michael’s smile was wide enough to hurt his face. “Yeah, son. That’s exactly what I’m telling you.”

My Father’s Mistakes on Ao3

@prim42 said My Father’s Mistakes is her favorite fic from me which means so much as I hold it really close to my heart. The father-son relationship between Michael and Franklin is one of my favorite things and Prim captured this moment between them so well. T_T <3

"Just call me, okay? Let me know you’re alive."

Trevor just grunted and got in the car, starting it up. Michael leaned on the door, reaching in for a kiss, but Trevor stared at him coldly, not meeting him halfway. "... So what, you’re just gonna use me and then leave me here waiting, huh?" Michael tried to joke, but his jaw was tense.

Trevor looked dead serious when he answered.

"Oh, how the tables have turned, Michael."

Michael’s forced smile died out completely and he stepped away from the car.

He had always made rash decisions, acted on impulse, dove head first into deep waters only to find out later that it had been stupid and dangerous. As he watched Trevor speed away, he wondered if this particular dive would end up killing him.

The wonderful @prim42 drew me this. I was flabbergasted as it was the first fanart inspired by a fic of mine, and it was so kind of her, and she also captured their expressions perfectly.

Prim gave me the permission to post this. Please please please go follow her, she is so wonderful!

The other problem was that after the naps he was filled with nervous energy, the kind that unwantedly reminded him of a certain ghost from his past. Usually he had to get out of the house and drive far, far away. Once he drove up to the Vinewood sign in the middle of the night, sat on the hood of his car and looked over Los Santos. The lights and the size of city used to amaze him; all the possibilities he thought he and his family would have here used to charm him, make him look forward to a future of security and calmness.

He took out his earphones and nervously put on In The Air Tonight. God, he had been 16 when the song came out. Michael Townley, the trailer trash kid with a bright future ahead of him, had taken this song to his heart.

Now it barely resonated in the emptiness of Michael De Santa.

If depressed Michael (and a love letter to Phil Collins) is your thing, go have a read! Also go check out the amazing @prim42 who made me cry this beautiful piece of art. <3

Ironically, the fanart for the fic called Pictures of Trevor is... a picture of Michael. But as you can imagine, there are already plenty of pictures of Trevor (actually Steven Ogg) in the fic, so...

I have almost all parts written of this, just need to write one more to wrap the story up — because unlike I planned, it’s actually turned from separate, cute moments into a nonchronological story. 

Thank you to @prim42 for this cutie! <3 You’re amazing, my friend.

prim42 replied to your post: “ok if you've done assad for the character meme you are obligated to do...”:

They really should do the hug! They even shared an umbrella in the book so why can't they just hug for once in the movie

They have to be building up to it in the last movie, right? Like as an emotional climax of the series? right??? Literally all I wanted in the world after watching the Journal 64 trailer was for the two of them to hug. 

And I was kinda like “OK, let’s not get carried away. Carl’s really emotionally repressed. Assad’s emotionally intelligent, but I think he’s very careful about how he expresses friendship and affection with Carl because [all of Carl’s problems]. Probably I shouldn’t get my hopes too high.”

And then I read the scene in literally the first book where Assad hugs Carl and it’s like what are you DOING movies give me my hug
