apparently I write stuff sometimes (?)

[tinysnippets-sometimes]

Any pronouns, not a minor, English is my only language

I made this sideblog a while ago to try and encourage myself to write more often buuuuut that didn't exactly work. Might try to post more little bits and pieces of writing here in the future tho

[kippsnaps]

Something wicked this way comes!

A Pearl and Tilly appreciation post, because we love a crazy dog lady!

Okay, ngl, kinda legitimately just want to write the full multi-chapter fic that would be the Bounty Hunter prpduo AU. I got so many thoughts on how to whump c!Ranboo make a kinda coherent narrative.

Like, at least I have a handful of events and a rough ordering and I'll definitely need to work on some stuff (like and ending) it's actually... not completely impossible seeming? Unlike basically every other fic idea I've had

[tinysnippets-sometimes]

Fic idea I've had for a while but never actually written:

It's getting into hibernation season, and c!Phil is heading off on some adventure whatnot, which means it will be just c!Techno and c!Ranboo alone... and c!Techno will have to explain hibernating to c!Ranboo.

He really doesn't want to because that's vulnerable and awkward and c!Techno is c!Techno, so he starts procrastinating and then! The perfect excuse! Something seems to be wrong with c!Ranboo — better stay awake to figure out what's up and make sure they're okay :)

(spoiler alert, c!Ranboo's just eepy an' hungy because it turns out he needs to hibernate too)

[tinysnippets-sometimes]

Dang. My timing for making this blog was kinda awful

(school started up again not too long ago and I just have no free time or brain power for art stuff now -_-)

[tinysnippets-sometimes]

Slowly tryna build back up to writing again!

[if-loki-was-a-fox]

c!PeerPressure AU where I take the concept of the Butcher Army/Hog Hunt but turn it into bountyhunter!Ranboo outlaw!Techno,,,

[tinysnippets-sometimes]

Wait I just found this in my drafts I completely forgot about it-

Ranboo POV, PeerPressureDuo, Bounty Hunter AU

~

"Right, right... It's just, I'm pretty sure you're supposed to be my captive?" Ranboo said, shrugging a bit feebly with the rope around his wrists, "this wasn't how this was supposed to go at all."

Technoblade merely huffed at that, though it sounded almost more amused than any sort of hostility. Which... Ranboo still hadn't gotten over that yet, how almost laid back and... light hearted, joking, Technoblade was. In L'Manburg they had described a cruel and bloodthirsty terrorist, someone ruthless and angry.

Not this. Not the guy who let Ranboo live, even after they declared their intent to drag him back to L'Manburg to be tried, and most likely executed, for his crimes.

"I'm gonna be honest, uh— what's your name again? We'll come back to that — I'm gonna be honest man, you did not stand a chance back there," Technoblade said easily, his tone still so bizarrely close to friendly teasing — banter, rather than any sort of threat, "you only lasted as long as you did 'cus I was going easy on you. I could've disarmed you the moment you revealed yourself."

"Oh." Ranboo actually believed that. "Right. Um. My name's Ranboo by the way...? I uh, I guess you don't really care, you're Technoblade after all, but, y'know..."

Uncaring, cruel, a monster—

"Nah, I'll call you Ranboo. No point in being rude when I've already won," Technoblade grinned over his shoulder at Ranboo, lifting his end of the rope, "honestly more offended you'd think I don't know how to respect my opponents. I'm not just some pig or something."

Ranboo raised an eyebrow at the man's floppy pink ears and the sharp tusks poking out from beneath a short snout, but opted not to say anything. Best not to further offend their captor. Not when they seemed to be on his good side right now.

... He was actually almost kinda curious to learn more about him, now that he'd seen this much.

[tinysnippets-sometimes]

Oh good none of my Australian mutuals follow me here, they won't know I'm still awake- (/hj)

Random scene that popped into my head, set probably during the experiments arc (probably not very canon compliant tho)

Philza POV, Promise Duo, Angst

~

"Ranboo."

Red and green eyes jumped to his face momentarily. Mismatched pools of molten lava, seeming to shifted and melt like they were about to spill over.

"Let me help you." Philza spoke firm and clear, but not demanding. This was, ultimately, no more than an offer.

Well. It was perhaps more of a plea, if he were being honest with himself. Ranboo knew that too.

"... Please?"

Ranboo looked away, head jerking to the side and shoulders hiked up. He was all wound about himself, arms folded in an almost-hug, gripping themself like they were afraid they would disappear.

Their eyes — glowing faintly in the dark — darted from side to side as gears turned in Ranboo's head. Still, that unnerving sense that they would break and starring pouring down his cheeks at a moments notice hovered over them both like a guillotine (... or an anvil. Ranboo was so afraid to hurt them again.)

"I-I..." Ranboo vocalized more than spoke, "Phil, you- you know-"

His words cracked, and Philza felt dread pooling in his stomach, tugging down from his naval like the drop in an elevator.

"Phil you know- You know I can't do that."

"Yeah. I do."

"I'm sorry."

"... It's okay, mate."

[tinysnippets-sometimes]

A while back someone on r/fanfiction gave the prompt "love, hugs, inside jokes, and incredible violence" and I thought that worked really well for c!Borealtrio, so I wrote this little thing (now edited up just a little bit for posting here :)

Ranboo POV, Peer Pressure Duo, Emerald Duo, Relationship Analysis (?)

~

Over the month or so that Ranboo had known Technoblade and Philza, they had begun to notice a few things about the two's friendship. Of course, the first thing they'd noticed was how incredibly devoted and loyal the two were were to each other; that had been obvious even back when Ranboo had was being dragged along by Quackity and the rest of the L'Manburg cabinet to hunt Techno down and try execute him in front of Phil. The two blatantly cared about each other a lot.

The next thing Ranboo had realized more recently, something that had surprised them at first but seemed as natural as anything else now, was how physically affectionate the two were. It wasn't uncommon in the least to find the pair curled up on the couch together, especially when Techno was preening Phil's wings for him, or when Phil was braiding Techno's hair. Ranboo was pretty sure they had even walked in on Phil napping beside Techno during his hibernation once, though they weren't fully convinced they hadn't imagined it given how unreliable their memory was and how they had refused to write it down.

Another thing Ranboo noticed was that the two had developed way too many in-jokes for him to keep up with. Of course he understood the "Technoblade never dies!" catchphrase, but anything deeper than that went over their head. Like, sure, a baby zombie is a pain to deal with, but they were still confused by how over exaggerated Techno's reaction was every time one got within ten feet of Phil, and at this point they were scared to ask for an explanation.

And finally, perhaps one of the more immediately relevant things Ranboo had noticed, was how especially Technoblade used wrath and violence as possibly one of the greatest signs of care. That's what Doomsday was when it came down to it; the two taking revenge on L'Manburg for what it had done to themselves and each other. That was why no one ever dared trying to hurt either of them any more, they were terrified of seeing their home destroyed once more — or worse.

... So what did it mean then, when Bad commented that Techno didn't like people, and Techno had butted in to say that he liked Ranboo? When, after Ranboo was injured during Bad's ambush, Techno had all but carried them home? He'd teased Ranboo about how for once, he got to be the main character instead of them... And now, just a couple months later, Techno had gone out and come back to report how he'd teamed up with Quackity, Quackity, to take down Bad's so-called Eggpire. What was that all supposed to mean?

[tinysnippets-sometimes]

Short little thing I wrote ages ago for the prompt "paper crown"

Ranboo POV, mentioned Technoblade, set shortly after Doomsday

~

Paper. Ranboo needed paper and Technoblade had paper.

As such, Ranboo found themself hovering on the doorstep, trying to build the courage to knock on their new neighbor's door.

It wasn't that they thought Technoblade would say no, after all it was only a single sheet of paper, and last they checked, Technoblade was one of the richest people around. No, Ranboo's anxieties were much sillier than that.

Because the problem was that Ranboo wanted to make themself a crown.

They had always worn a paper crown for as long as they could remember (which honestly didn't mean a lot given how patchy their memory was, but the sentiment stands), and the only reason they hadn't been for the last couple days was because it had been one of the many things destroyed during Doomsday.

And maybe that sounds like a weird thing to be self conscious about, after all Technoblade himself wore a crown (a real one, though, made out of gold)... but that was exactly the problem.

Ranboo wore a crown because they had grown up listening to the inspiring tales of the Blood God, Technoblade himself.

And that wasn't something Ranboo wanted to tell Technoblade just yet.

MY BRAIN IS SO SILLY EVERY TIME I SEE THIS NEW PFP IN THE BLOG SELECT MENU I GET SPOOKED

[tinysnippets-sometimes]

Pretty sure I already posted this on my main blog a bit ago, but I can't for the life of me find the post to reblog so I'm just reposting it here

Technoblade POV, discussed Ranboo, set right after Techno & Ranboo's Excellent Adventure

~

It probably should have hit him sooner; maybe when he stumbled home with Ranboo in the middle of the night in a fit of cackling laughter, knowing full well he wouldn't be able to sleep that night after the excitement of the day; maybe while they fought their way side by side through Nether fortresses, and he chucked that whole bottle of fire protection potion so it would give Ranboo the brunt of it's effects while he fought on in without the extra magic; maybe even when Ranboo first lifted that Spawner without breaking it and he had declared himself their mentor on the spot, called them — however jokingly — his best friend.

But Technoblade was never the best with admitting things like this — his attachments to other people — to himself. He never got the chance with Tommy before he was rejected and betrayed, so of course it was even harder to admit it now with Ranboo. But the truth of the matter, Technoblade finally started to realize as he trudged up the stairs to his cabin, shoving the front door open with his shoulder, was that he cared about Ranboo. He cared a lot, in fact. He considered Ranboo a good friend, regardless of how risky it was, and he honestly wasn't entirely convinced he wouldn't fight the whole world for this kid tomorrow, if that was what he needed to do to keep them safe and happy.

This was not a crisis Technoblade thought he would have to deal with. Especially not so soon. Not when Ranboo had been living in the tundra with him and Philza for what, two weeks? It was barely over a month since the guy assisted in his attempted execution! How the heck had he been won over so quickly?

Well. Okay, he knew how. He knew exactly how. Ranboo didn't have a single malicious bone in their body. Not one. Sure, they technically had a history of treason, but that was only because of how they kept trying to befriend Technoblade even before he got them out of that awful government situation they were stuck in. The kid had been nothing but a bundle of nerves and peace offerings since the first real conversation Technoblade had with them, not an hour after the Butcher's Army. They had done nothing but extend olive branch after olive branch, even as Technoblade shot him down again and again. Until he didn't.

Until Technoblade let Philza drag them out of the ashen remains of their old country, stopped to listen to them talk, accepted their gifts, followed them on adventures…. Then he did it again. And again. And again.

Oh how the mighty had fallen.

Technoblade was staring out his window even now, gaze fixated on his new apprentice's pathetic little shack and considering bringing the guy some supplies to fix it up a bit tomorrow. Shit, Philza really was rubbing off on him. He was stuck with this kid now, wasn't he?

Hello feel free to send my writing prompts (whether it be a scenario or a single word or anything in-between), for now I'm probably gonna go through some of my older drabbles and maybe post a few here :)

[tinysnippets-sometimes]

I'll probably mostly be writing c!BorealTrio, at least at first, as they're the ones I know best
