Sorry I started sobbing uncontrollably when you expressed the slightest concern for my lack of human connection, and casually mentioned you think I deserve better than a life of isolation and loneliness. Super weird. Not sure what was up with that lol. You still think I’m cool and mysterious and sexy, right?

Some facts:

1) Black Americans created jazz. 2) Jewish Americans created comic books. 3) These things are said to be the only original American art forms.

4) black Americans invented rock and roll.

5) Black AND Jewish Americans created musical theatre.

Well, I did it! I have officially embarked on my journey of writing the Adam/Henri fake engagement fic I have wanted to write for years. This ship deserves a multi-chapter fic.

This is the first time I've posted a first chapter without having the whole work written, so I'm doing something brave! (And also making no promises about when the next chapter is coming) Enjoy!

Chapter 3 is now up! Go read it!

The key to writing good fanfiction is to harbor a deeply humiliating desire, and the trick there is that even pretty basic and societally-accepted desires like “being held” and “being wanted” CAN and WILL be humiliating if they’re intense enough. Become so estranged from human connection that the idea of someone playing with your hair fills you with yearning so deep you feel like you’re going to throw up and you will write some banger fanfiction. It might have some other consequences too but idrk about that.

can’t go wrong with pining while fucking as a trope. truly it has it all. pining. awkward sexual situations. weapons grade insecurity for all parties involved. the desperation as they inevitably fall further and further while hating themselves for being unable to stick to the contract of no strings attached. etc. you understand

with a little help from his older brother, Hank Green has invented an absurdly enjoyable word-spelling game called smush.

Shallan and Renarin talking about Urithiru and fabrials and then hitting us with this bomb of a sentance will never not be funny

Renarin: '“It does being a city.” He frowned. “Well, I mean, it bees a city.… It does what the city is.…”'

i need more people on here to care about an american in paris (stage musical) because i fall back into the hyperfixation every few months and i am always screaming into the almost-void. i have read every fic on ao3. some multiple times. it’s not hard because there are 24 of them. look here’s a slime tutorial which i have watched and a proshot which i haven’t. you want to watch a jazz ballet musical about a city struggling with postwar ptsd and a couple american artists in the middle of it sooooo bad

adam hochberg was made for this website. please. i’m begging you

[ashen-crest]

I can do it. I can write a chapter. I am capable of putting sentences together. I know what a comma is. I am Aware of the Character.

Chapter 2 of my Adam/Henri fake engagement modern AU is posted! Adam gets to see the engagement rings that Henri picked out, which is a scene that's been kicking around in my brain for months or perhaps years, so I'm very thrilled it's out in the world.

See you all when Chapter 3 comes out!
