Heya! I'm sharkies, I write stuff. Specifically currently 'Katsuki and Izuku (Deceased)' Which is my main fic, but I have other side quests ongoing. I love any opportunity to talk about my fic, and the characters, so feel free to ask. Current obsessions Mha DC Epic
Alright! New pinned post because my old one was back from over a year ago and I just.... Never updated it.
So this blog is mainly for my writing, and some shit posting, my main current writing project is 'Katsuki and Izuku (Deceased)' which is being written as I go, although does have a plan.
I have two more fics in drafts that I plan to fully write out before posting hopefully.
More about KAI(D) It's an au that's really been bouncing around my head for years and years. The general gist is Katsuki ends up with one for all after izuku does and gets haunted by the vestiges!
This au is my absolute baby and I love any questions anyone may have, you can ask Me or the characters if you're feeling funky. (Character answers will be at the current point the fic is up to unless you specify you what an answer from an earlier point)
It was originally a crack fic and has now spiralled into a huge angsty commitment
I don’t know if you’ve already addressed this but how was Liz affected by living with Curtis and her mom? I know Curtis is well Curtis but was her mom good? Was CPS involved at all and that’s why Troy took custody or did he just learn about her and decided to take her?
Okay, first, thank you for the question!
Liz was born when Troy was about seventeen I reckon (timeline is up for debate right now.) He still ended up doing a lot of the care for her while going through hockey and all that. I'm making their mother more absent than cannon, obviously she's also just trying to live, but so Troy was really alone trying to keep Elizabeth safe from Curtis. Troy still harbours a sort of far too high view of his mother, because she never actively hurt them, he views her as practically a saint compared to the other parent her had.
If you think Curtis hates Troy, wait till he has a female child. When Troy was around 19-20 (so Liz was 2-3) Troy after maybe taking another hit for his sister, decided he needed to get her out. He mostly handled the care, so Curtis didn't really care much, but he didn't like losing access to Liz because she was easy to make listen.
I think when Troy is about 21 he gets full complete custody, because Curtis gives up on putting that much effort in, although he does make Troy agree to keep him updated on Liz— It's mostly used to make sure Troy won't block him— but so just around when Troy was starting to settle into raising his sister, and his career, Charlotte came along... And now he had a baby. Fuck.
Lizzie adores her little sister, who is technically her niece, but she sees Troy as a secret third thing between brother and father anyway. She's too overprotective of her sister and brother, leading to a lot of babysitters to give up, because they can't even get near the two year old because if Lizzie doesn't like them, she's fully threatening to bite.
I don't want to call her a brat as such, but she's still used to all the time at Curtis's house, when she was learning how to interact with the world, her only role models were undiagnosed Autistic Troy who'd sometimes get really overwhelmed and frustrated, slamming his fists into his head, screaming ECT, and Curtis who is ... Well Curtis. She doesn't know how to handle any sort of big emotions and will drop to the floor and scream partially because it gets her attention.
Naturally, Troy is doing his best, but her only parental figure having to leave them so often for work doesn't exactly help her existing abandonment issues. Troy has some contact with their mother, sends her updates about Lizzie and her schooling. Usually gets thumbs ups. Whether or not she even knows that Charlotte is Troy's child is debatable.
Who finds out about the kids first? Is it like Harris, like in Slipping through my fingers?
Oohhh good question. I would love to make Harris know first again, but honestly I'm sorry of tied between Bood, and Wyatt. Wyatt because, well, that man is going to absolutely adore those kids, he's so friendly he'd be a really good help for Troy. And I love him.
Or, Boodram, because he's one of my other favs, and he could see Troy at daycare possibly which would be HILARIOUS also the idea of Bood giving him curly hair advice and being very confused because Troy said they worked great.... and his hair hasn't changed at all is HILARIOUS to me. Because bood is just going ??? What?
Also, sidenote, thank you for the ask. I adore asks, and I don't get nearly as many as I used to when in the COD fandom. It makes me sad.
Okay, so like I'm just in my thoughts about single dad Troy au, and that they probably had a very very employed babysitter in Toronto, who knew the kids really well, and adored them. Troy paid her a tonne, and tipped her to all hell as well.
Anyways, so when they move to Ottawa, Troy, sweetheart my love continues to pay her for like three months, insists on it, because it's not her fault that they suddenly moved, and he doesn't want her in a hard spot suddenly not having the expected money.
Now, when they arrive in Ottawa, Troy is going to be probably very panicked and rushed trying to find a babysitter on short notice in a new city, and maybe he's struggling for a few weeks, because Liz is being a brat (She's not exactly had an ideal upbringing with Troy's parents, and even with him it's very unstable, she hates that they've moved.) and so Troy is hiring new babysitters every other day, trying to find one that works for them.
And while all this is happening, all of Ottawa doesn't really like him, thinking he's another Dallas Kent.
But his girls are dressed to the nines, the cutest clothes, mostly custom. All clothing his girls asked for or liked.
He feels that he fails them so much,but he likes having them dressed up, looking cute.
As a kid some of the only 'affection' he got was making sure he looked perfect for photos, so it's one of the few places he feels like a good parent. His kids are always dressed, nicely, in comfortable and appropriate clothing. And he can afford it.
The girls love all the cooking they get from old ladies 'Aw aren't they just the cutest!?'
Charlotte (Troy's daughter) absolutely has like the worst bangs ever, halfway up her forehead, either she or Elizabeth did them. Meanwhile Liz has the longest, most luscious black curls that go down to mid back and she fights any hair trims. She hates her hair being touched though Nd screams and cries.
Troy has to agree to do my little pony dances to get her to agree to it.
He has no clue how to handle curls, even through his own hair has some curl, it's never been long enough to worry about, so Lizzie usually has fuzzy frizzy hair, at least until bood knows, or he possibly just asks bood.... hey.... how do you style curls?
Boodram is then very confused after he gave advice, troy said it was useful thank you... and the man's frizzy hair hasn't changed at all.
Troy has OCD, he'd always been good at hiding and concealing it. Contamintion ocd with food passed off as being healthy. He's on the ice skating despite being sick because if he misses the day, he will die along with everyone he loved —well he just looks commited to the sport.
Finding out Dallas was a rapist though... what if he is secretly a rapist, what if he raped people without knowing. What if he actually raped all those women and Dallas was innocent
The centaurs didn't know about Troys struggles, until Troy called Harris in the middle of this spiral sobbing.
Okay fuck it, most of the last chapters for slipping through my fingers are in draft form, I'm gonna do the kid fic after it's done. Single Troy raising sister and baby. This shit is gonna be so fun. And especially when they suddenly have a whole hockey team of uncles and another dad.
Boy do I wish I could draw through, because I would love to draw like just little art of Troy and his babies. Why can't my artist friends like heated rivalry?
So far the rough idea is Troy's younger sister he has custody of is around 6, and called Elizabeth. And his daughter is maybe two, and called Charlotte. If anyone has suggestions other than that though, I'll take em! I love when people have ideas on my ideas lol
So we are starting to head towards the end of slipping through my fingers, and in the time I've been writing it, I feel like a) my ringing in general, but b) my grasp on the characters has improved.
And I'm sort of tempted to write another Troy fic, with him being traded without the video, but this time he isn't hiding seizures, he's hiding a daughter (and maybe a little sister.) He took custody of his sister when he was maybe 19, because he didn't want her with his father, unfortunately being in hockey and with both him and the sister being from such a bad environment they aren't the most stable, especially with her constantly having to be with baby sitters, but he refuses to let her fall into the system.
And then when he's like 21-23 he is at own of Dallas's parties, and he doesn't really want to sleep with some girl, but she does (I am incapable of letting this man have had zero of my trauma) and ends up pregnant. She basically leaves the baby on his doorstep, and Troy now has his already traumatised sister and now a child. Luckily he can like afford babysitters, but he's really struggling, and tries to keep this secret from everyone.
Maybe the altercation that happens with Dallas is something about his sister, Dallas knows about the kids and makes some weird comment or something. Troy fights him over it and gets traded. No one knows why, because Troy is desperate to keep this all secret.
Then the Centaurs, who now have no context for why he was traded are really expecting the worst...becuase it's barrett. And no one will even say why he was traded. It had to be bad.
Like you just know Harris, and all the cens, would adore these children.
I dunno, may or may not write this, it has potential

Marleau is a sisters boy. His parents are AMAZING I cannot stress this enough, absolutely lovely, supported everything about him. But first and foremost he is Tiffany's son. He's her baby.
Something goes wrong, he's texting her first. She was the first to know about any sort of life change, just like Cliff is his younger sisters first child.
Their family is just so so happy they managed to raise siblings who are so close and connected as adults, while all being wonderful people. (Granted they are a little confused how they ended up with every child being queer, but they love them anyways.)
Thought of this when I made Cliff have a problem in the chap I'm working on, and he just immediately texts his older sister.
Y'all can expect the next chapter of the Troy fic out tomorrow! It would be today, but I can't stand to look at that name any more to edit it right now lol.
okay, working on the next chapter of Slipping through my fingers and I'm curious what y'all think. Should Troy still be in a hotel, or should he finally actually get a place in Montreal, finally starting to settle.
This won't be relevant for a while, but I feel like this is something people may have opinions on, and I'm curious. I'm currently leaning getting a place.
Random au idea. Some people have wings they are pretty uncommon and stigmatized. Wyatt Hayes was one of these people, Toronto hated that he wouldn't bind his wings and eventually traded him to Ottawa.
Troy also has wings, this however is not known information, except to Dallas, who thought they were disgusting. He has kept them carefully bound, and clipped his whole life. He gets traded to Ottawa without him punching Dallas being filmed, so everyone assumes he must have done something truly horrid to be there.
Wyatt is still sort of giving him a chance, but no one misses how Troy's eyes are constantly glued to the man's wings.
Possibly at some point, he's exhausted, and in pain from the wing binding or whatever and gets in a fight with Wyatt. Wyatt hisses or some noise which is immediately repeated back by Troy. Probably more aggressively, and Wyatt is like.... Hold up, why can he do a growl like that???
