Little bit of self promotion

Hi. I write fanfics. Here are some of my stories and series that I'm currently working on

To Brave The Storm a series of canon compliant post S1 Arcane - League of Legends fics centered on CaitVi. Starts right off the end of the last episode of S1, goes on to stories a decade after that. Some stories are complete, others are ongoing, new ones will pop and the first one is over 100k long so yeah, you've got stuff to read

The Belay Of Our Love, a sports!AU also about Arcane, with professional rock and indoor climbing at its basis

Dishonored, well... have you played Dishonored, the videogame from 2012? Well, throw it onto Arcane and see what's it like over there

Impossible Odds, a Mass Effect Trilogy series centered on Shiara and their journey from the first game to a post-Destroy ending with a touch of Indoctrination Theory. The most well known piece of this series is Death And The Healing

This is currently what I'm working on. More will come, and may be added, or get their own promo posts too.

Transcript:

I’m signing part of what I’m saying tonight because while we were making the movie, we all became more aware of the problems of the handicapped. Over 14 million people are deaf. They are the invisible handicapped, and can’t share this evening, so this is my way of acknowledging them.

I started posting about this fic last year, then I completely left tumblr and stopped posting… time to bring it back up! ✌️

Call It What You Want Want (Separate Ways) - on AO3

Written by @thewriterinthebatcave - Illustrated by ME!

Caitlyn has it all. She's one of the most influential pop musicians in the world, critics acclaim her music, albums fly off shelves and her fans adore her. At twenty six, she has conquered pretty much everything there was to in the music business. Now off duty and with some time for herself after a six months long overseas tour, back at home in Piltover, she decides to do something for herself.

Enter Vi, a young and skilled tattoo artist, armed with an extensive portfolio, enough charm to bewitch a brick and just enough cluelessness that takes on the job to ink Caitlyn's skin.

What could possibly go wrong?

[robotpussy]

i will never be against piracy ever but i also need physical media to remain

[robotpussy]

the average blockbuster carried about 3x as many films than that that are streaming on Netflix or any other streaming service, physical media along with piracy is more important than ever.

[rottenbrainstuff]

I thought this wasn’t true, because how could it be true? How could one small store have more movies than an online database? So I googled it.

I am surprised and depressed to learn it’s 100% true, according to google. A Blockbuster store was required to have a minimum of 7000 titles, but most averaged about 10,000. Netflix has 4000 movies. (And 1800 tv shows if you want to count those, but even included, it’s still less)

Now I’m even more depressed about the collapse of physical rental stores.

[siphersaysstuff]

BONUS: They weren't beholden to Who Owns What IP Right Now. They got videos from everyone. You didn't have to pay separately for the rights to rent from the Disney Shelves and the WB Shelves and bler bler bler, and they only STOPPED having those movies when the tapes broke or someone never returned 'em.

[pepperoni-oni]

friendly reminder that your local library will have lots of physical media and if they don't have what you're looking for you can most likely ask them to purchase it or order it from another library through interlibrary loan

[bogappreciation]

Shoutout to Scarecrow Video- they have over 148,000 titles, most of which you can rent by mail. Rentals have been down in the last few years so they're asking for support!

[letteredlettered]

boosting this for Scarecrow Video. It's also now a non-profit.

So, are we returning here? How's it going?

Pros of re-reading your own fic

a good time;

Has exactly the tropes you like and the characterization you want to read;

Gratification: yes you did finish a thing and yes you did do good;

just a very fun time all around.

Cons of re-reading your own fic:

Is that another TYpO

Hey so it's come to my attention that the Creators of Disco Elysium want you to share the game and not give the company who took over and fired them (illegally)?) any profits off of their ideas and work, and I originally joined tumblr 2 weeks ago when that post was going around about the Steam sale and how you should [Skull and Crossbones flag] it instead.

So.

in light of that.

Check the replies/notes of this post :)

I was informed that posts containing links in them aren't findable in the search so i'll just.... drop a link in a seperate reboot :)

TIL that Billy Crystal’s character, Miracle Max, in the Princess Bride was so funny that it nearly stopped the production of the movie. One actor bruised a rib from clenching to try not to laugh.

[nookisms]

Fun fact in addition: Cary Elwes wasn’t allowed to be part of that scene because he kept laughing. The Westley on the table was dummy.

[quill-of-thoth]

This is AFTER he broke a toe riding Andre the Giant’s ATV, and got concussed when he and Christopher Guest tried to make the scene where Count Rugen knocks Wesley out more convincing. Mandy Patinkin busted the rib trying not to laugh, and also accidentally stabbed Guest during their fight scene.  About the only person who didn’t get some form of overenthusiasm-induced injury or illness during filming was Robin Wright, who had to repeatedly get her dress burnt up in the fire swamp scene because Goldman ruined one of the takes by screaming “Oh my god, she’s on fire!”

[sfitty]

i swear the princess bride movie was just a bunch of cast and crew deciding to dick around and film it.

it was Jackass before Jackass

[aphony-cree]

The guy in the giant rodent costume got arrested on his way to the set and they had to delay production to go bail him out

This is what I tried to explain to US platforms like Patreon when they suspended my account for having a nude statue as the background image: I live in Europe, I can go and see a nude statue within a 5 minutes walk. Children can see them, they're not in some 18+ container. I will never understand those policies.
