hi sasha !!! tell me about your current wips, i’d like to meet them :) how many do you have? give me a short summary of your three most recent ones (or more, if you want !!!)
hi gi!! i'm glad you asked for three wips, because that's exactly how many i have :)
the first one is miranami (mirage + xunami), it's one i started pretty early on in the season and it's honestly really simple. lesbian au, as is true for all of my drag race wips. come for the one night stand, stay for the awkward and endearing dinner scene where they realize that their chemistry is a lot more than just physical. there's certainly room for this fic to expand from a short but sweet smut + fluff one shot, into a full-on strangers to lovers multi-chapter story.
the second one is planymphia (plane + nymphia), this one i started like, a week before the ship really took off but the seeds had already been planted. it's a short, slice of life fic where plane learns more about nymphia's culture in an effort to understand her, but gets more than she bargained for in meeting her mother... which ends in a hilarious disaster.
the third one is for a ship that's been with me for a much longer time, and that i keep near and dear to my heart. sashea (sasha + shea) one shot angst. after dating on and off for six years, they come to the conclusion that maybe "soulmates" isn't for everyone. i do intend to finish this one so i won't spoil the ending but it's a heart squeezer for sure.
thanks again for the ask, hope this gave you a little taste of what's hopefully to come in the future :)
pure fluff i wrote while i worked at an amusement park that's been rotting in my wips ever since, but i wanted to contribute to the pride challenge so here I am. Shea wins Sasha a giant plushie. that's it, that's the plot.
Walking along the boardwalk, Sasha breathed in the sweet smell of cotton candy and stretched like a cat, enjoying the sun. Walking next to her, Shea was entranced as Sasha finished the last of her soda and clipped the reusable cup to the backpack that Shea was wearing. They had a brief "fight" over who was going to wear it, both of them insisting that they wore it before Sasha relented.
"I need to go to the bathroom." Sasha sighed, laying eyes on the closest one to see that the line was out the door.
"Do you wanna try and find a less crowded one?" Shea asked, knowing that Sasha would only make them stop if she really needed to go.
"No, if we find another one, it's going to be just as crowded. Hopefully the line will move fast. Go ahead and walk around a little, I'll text you when I get out." Sasha said, kissing Shea on the cheek and power walked over to the bathroom line.
Shea continued walking, although she didn't want to go too far. She turned a corner and discovered a small cluster of carnival games. Her eyes landed on a row of giant bear plushies that were the prizes for a ball toss game. They were definitely taller than her. She imagined Sasha trying and failing to pick one up, and she chuckled to herself. She decided right then she had to try and win one. The game was most likely rigged, and they definitely couldn't take it home if she did win, but she didn’t particularly care. She mentally gave herself 3 games to win and stepped up and paid for her first game.
It turns out, one game was all she needed, since she landed two balls in back to back. She cheered in surprise as the attendant rang a bell then asked what color she wanted, then dug a fresh one up from a back room. The bear was lighter than she expected, and she carried it over to a bench to wait for Sasha. Her text came after a few minutes, and Shea told her where she was. She could see her from about 60 feet away, the sun shining through her like the angel she was. She laid eyes on Shea when she was about 30 feet away, and Shea could see her surprise and subsequent eye roll as she approached.
“Why?” she laughed, hugging Shea then hugging the bear
“Because I wanted to see you smile”
“You didn’t spend all of our cash, did you?”
“No, no, no. Believe it or not, I won in one try.”
“What game did you play?”
“That one over there, the one where you toss the balls into a bin.”
"How on earth are we supposed to get this home? We flew here!"
"Ship it." Shea said, barely holding back laughter.
"That's going to be super expensive!"
"So?"
"So the price of the shipping is going to be like 10 times what it's worth! Darling, I am so grateful that you won this for me, so, so grateful. But we can't reasonably get this back home. How about we make a little kids day and then I'll let you win me a more reasonable sized toy."
"You're hurting my feelings here Sasha!" Shea laughed.
"I'm sorry love." Sasha cooed as she kissed Shea's cheek. "I do want a picture with it before we give it away though, it's almost as big as I am!"
"I know, that's why I played for it."
After 5 minutes of picture taking, the giant bear was handed off to a thrilled family of little girls and their parents, and Sasha led Shea to a game that would be easy to win, a guessing game where the worker had to guess a persons person's weight, age, or birth month, and after handing over 10 dollars and stepping on a giant scale, Shea won easily, and Sasha chose a husky dog plushie that was more manageable to carry, about the size of her torso as opposed to the size of her. Sasha leaned into Shea as they walked back to where they started, and Shea kissed the side of her head and then kissed the dogs head, already fondly remembering the day.
There was one queen that I was hoping would be on that season with me because I had a huge drag crush on her […] then we were there together in that studio and I was like ‘finally I’ll make her my friend!’
