i’m not dead! this is a sequel to the last one (parting is such sweet sorrow...)

[tentlytorrent]

so i made a twitter account

[tentlytorrent]

should i tweet amitai marmorstein about this? he asked for fanart so maybe he’ll like some fanfic?

I really want Michael Assistent to ask the detective agency whether they’ve seen aliens before and they have to say no, they’ve only seen a shark trapped in a kitten and a Purple People Eater and the backstage of reality and Michael’s like??? Only???

[everythingremainsconnected]

Michael has questions, right, so he starts asking for details and are there pictures? No? Ok how about an artistic rendering then… and after a few very illuminating minutes he realizes the Purple People Eater is connected to Francis “fell from the literal sky” Cardenas, so it could be argued that Francis is Possibly Alien, right, so theoretically Dirk and the gang have Possibly met a Possible Alien… so Michael Assistent does the math and it turns out he’s one single connection away from aliens and he just. Loses. His. Damn. Mind.

Meanwhile, Dirk has mistaken Michael’s alien awe for “Dirk awe” and no one has the heart to tell him otherwise

[princessparadoxical]

Todd’s sitting there like “… did you just compliment Dirk by calling him alien-adjacent?”

Fic #2! This one’s part of a two-story series ;)

[dustlines]

I can pretty much guarantee Farah in Blackwing just means “Farah breaking in to raise a little hell, knock out Osmund Priest with a single punch, and help some captured subjects escape.”

She spray paints “FARAH BLACK WAS HERE” on the walls and lights all the experiment rooms on fire before triumphantly storming out of there with Assistent slung over her shoulder. He’s screaming because of all the fire, but he is still very happy that his letting Farah use his badge to get in here worked out so well for everyone (except Blackwing).

[grinchwrapsupreme]

Like yeah I wanted to see Assistent and Dirk fall in love because Dirk deserves love and a stable relationship with someone who cares about him but mainly I just wanted to see the look on Todd’s face when he was forced to bear witness to it

[tentlytorrent]

Fortunately for you, fic #3 (and possibly more in phase one) of the Tently Torrent will include both of these!

quick question

if i write 40+ fan fictions in a 6 month period can i put that on my resume

[kenisle]

ALRIGHT FUCKS LISTEN UP

for those of you desperate for new dirk gently’s holistic detective agency content but can’t find any because the fandom consists of roughly 30 people and someone’s hamster, then hoo boy have i got a show for you!

there are 3 fics on ao3 with the relationship “dirk/lieutenant assistent” (what was going to be a canon pairing in the third season, which has been cancelled) in them, none of which are completed, so i’ve taken it upon myself to fill that tag as much as i can in the next 6 months or so.

i’m gonna write so goddamn much. ive separated the types of fics im gonna write into 5 different phases bc i’m a nerd. the phases are as follows:

as you can see, this is a fuckton of work. i also may lose my adrenaline-powered drive to write all this shit at any given moment, so prepare for sporradic updates and nonsensical time frames in which the phases will occur.

wanna contribute? great! do that. you don’t have to be a writer; artists, gifmakers, shitposters, and everyone else is welcome to join in! just don’t expect me to have any idea what the fuck i’m doing.

if you’ve never fucking heard of dirk gently’s holistic detective agency, go watch it on hulu or maybe netflix. maybe even youtube. the show is a gorgeous mess, much like my blog, so all of my followers should check it out.

spread the word and who knows? maybe people will wanna have a good time and help me on this quest.

tag posts as “tently torrent” if u do it. if not then just sit back and enjoy

at some point i’ll use the blog @tentlytorrent. follow it for updates.
