Tentacle

Is the slime mind-whammying him or does someone holding him down and licking into his mouth activate animalistic Hatake fucking instincts? You decide. – Lightning chirps in his hand, a familiar friend except for how it’s not. For every time it’s saved a comrade, chidori is a cruel comfort. It’s stress and sweaty panic, urgency in a cupped palm, it’s too-late and any pride he’d felt in its creation had faded with the light in Rin’s eyes, reflecting blue-white sparks. (And nevermind that he’d been so horrifically relieved to have it, then, the perfect assassination tool, sick and relieved, horrified…

2023 in Review

The year is over! It… really doesn’t feel like it. It feels like very shortly I was deciding what fics to put up for Evil Author Day (Feb 15th) and it’s already almost February again! I haven’t written very much this year. Specifically, I spent last year (January 1st through March) writing hundreds of words a day for my 2023 Quantum Bang project, the first time I’ve written a novel in one ‘sitting’, the first time I’ve broken 50k, and the first time I’ve completed a 50k challenge. It felt like it wiped me out a bit, writing-wise. The constant…

Spring Updates 2023

I’m a little early, but March marks the second anniversary of this site. As such, I’m doing a fun recap.

Catalyst

Title: Catalyst
Author: Timothy Wren
Fandom: Miraculous Ladybug
Relationships: Lovesquare, but pre-relationship
Genre: Anime, Romance, Superheroes
Notes/Warnings: Pre-relationship, pre identity-reveal, Whumptober so some temporary injury is to be expected, Kwami swap! (temporary), Original Akumas
Word Count: 3242/?
Summary: It was roughly two hours– two hours, two Cataclysms and one spent lucky-charm– into the fight that Adrien knew he’d fucked up.

Azadi

Title: Azadi
Author: Timothy Wren
Fandom: Fullmetal Alchemist
Relationship: Edward Elric/Roy Mustang
Warnings: Age difference, unmentioned, and everyone is a consenting 20+ adult in this; smut
Word Count: 2,196 (complete)
Summary: It’s not how it begins, of course, but somewhere in the middle of the night, in the middle of the year, in the middle of the relatively calmer part of their lives, there is this:

Roy, gasping: "Fullmetal–"

"I’ve been Ed to you for years, Roy." As he slides his automail leg against Roy’s thigh. "Or is there something you want to tell me?"

Fullmetal was dangerous, a force of nature, but Ed evokes a terrifying cacophony of warm emotions in Roy’s chest, fondness and exasperation and some measure of awe, and comradery, of intellectual challenge and a measure of truly equal partnership that Roy never imagined having, comfort in his own home and his own skin, and all told Fullmetal’s the safer option.

"You’ve caught me out." He gasps, fingers curling in the sheets. "I’m just with you for the automail."

Reference: Cardcaptor Sakura Cards

I’m typing up a personal reference for which cards are under which for personal use, and for anyone else in this fandom.

KakaZabu Week 2022

Event: KakaZabu Week 2022

For the 5th year in a row, we’re doing the ship week for Momochi Zabuza/Hatake Kakashi.

If You Want to go Far

Title: If you want to go far (go together)
Author: Timothy Wren
Fandom: BNHA
Challenge: BNHA Rarepair Bang 2022
Relationship: Ashido Mina/Bakugou Katsuki/Hagakure Tooru/Kirishima Eijirou/Midoriya Izuku
Word Count: 3,807 (Complete)
Genre: Power Rangers 2017 crossover, Entrance Exam Arc, AU.
Summary: The exam wants them to destroy robots, which is both painfully ironic and deeply satisfying. Once, he might have hesitated– a year ago, maybe. Now his body knows these steps and jumps into the rhythm like a familiar dance.

The hardest part is keeping his armor under his skin.

April 22 Updates

This month is April, and for the first time I’m confident enough to try Roughtrade— the writing challenge site by Keira Marcos and Jilly James, among others, where you do a themed version of NaNoWriMo (essentially). This year’s April challenge allowed for one 25k fic so, after double-triple-checking, I jumped on the chance. If you know me, you know I rarely have the golden time/spoons/motivation combo to accomplish a genuinely long fic, or a full-length novel of a fic (50k). In fact, my longest completed fic is A Trebled Soul, which I published earlier this year, and acts as a…

January 2022 Updates

After around ten hours of fucking around with my site settings, I now have a static page! And I realized it’s been a while since I did an update. I’ve had this site for almost a year, and my love for it has not faded any.
