harrison and reeve are besties in platonic love so like how do I handle this

How often they’d ugly laugh to an unfunny joke, how often he’d fall asleep, head in her lap while they watched a horror movie, how often she’d wake up minutes before him and think, how lucky am I, how lucky am I?

SO CUTEEEE

WIP intro: Brave Boys of Renown

Genre: horror, political fiction, kind of histfic but idk if you would really classify it as that lmao

Setting: Belfast, Northern Ireland, 1974

Warnings: this is, at its core, an extremely dark and pessimistic story about paramilitaries cannibalising people. if this puts you off in any way block the tag. it is also about child abuse, classism, colonialism, and the top ten most unsanitary commercial kitchens + none of the characters are in any way good or even mostly tolerable people. once again this is mostly just a personal catharsis story for me so I will be writing whatever I want and if it isn't for you then settings > account > filtered tags > "wip: bbor"

Synopsis

Lazarus McClure's day is already going pretty badly, but even after everything that's already happened accidentally hitting and killing someone with his car represents a serious escalation. Faced with the prospect of years spent in prison for what looks like yet another contribution to Northern Ireland's already years-long civil war, he makes what is of course the only logical decision available to him: forcing the only witness, a bystander by the name of Brendan Breen, into the car with him, and driving him and the body back to the chip shop which represents Lazarus' livelihood -- a place where, shall we say, no one will notice another body. But Lazarus has no idea how to dispose of it in a way that definitely won't trace back to him. He even considers turning himself in. And then Brendan, who works part-time as a butcher, cleverly noticing that they are currently in a room full of meat mincers and fryers, offers, in exchange for his freedom, to provide a solution...

Inspired in many ways by my own family history (NOT INCLUDING THE EATING PEOPLE. LET ME CLEAR THAT UP NOW) and an inability to stop thinking about politics ever. I will say rn that the cannibalism present in the story is used almost wholly as a horror aspect and is. how do I say this. basically if you're looking for cannibalism-as-desire this piece will disappoint you. however, if you're looking for cannibalism as a metaphor for colonialism, capitalism, the British aristocracy, power imbalance within relationships, and [insane person voice] the underrepresentation of any non-England place within the UK parliament, this will likely appeal to you slightly more <3

I need a movie where Misha Collins plays a gay angel that falls in love with a bisexual cowboy played by Jensen Ackles. Their names are Cassius and Daniel, Cas and Dan. Jared Padalecki plays Daniel’s younger brother, Samson. It’s a blatant ripoff of SPN. The quality is extremely shitty and the budget was $40. Misha is wearing a pair of shitty $12 angel wings from Amazon and a cardboard halo. Jensen has a water gun instead of a real one. For some reason Samson is a mime, dressed in full mime ensemble, and breaks the fourth wall via miming his frustration about how Daniel and Cassius won’t get together. It has a laugh track and uses those “oohs” and “ahhs” and gasps that were in those early 2000s disney channel shows. Whenever Daniel shoots his gun you just hear Jensen making “pew pew pew pew” noises as red water squirts out.

🪨 💦 🌫 <33

hi pía <3

🪨Landslide: Which WIP has the most worldbuilding?

Ok so the other day i made a post about my selfcare writing and working on stuff no one will ever see and i have my favorite little project i do for my selfcare writing that's a fantasy novel (me??? write fantasy??? absolutely insane) so. that has like a decade of worldbuilding behind it. it fills up multiple notebooks and google docs

💦Flood: How many WIPs do you have?

i would say i have like 3 or 4 active WIPs??? i have two that have been on hiatus for multiple years and tbh idk if either of them are ever coming out of hiatus so i don't really count them as WIPs because they're not in progress. i have my current untitled wip (1), a book i wrote called prestissimo, con dolore (2) (i think i'm gonna change that title for draft two), tbaeoe (3) even though i'm not really actively doing anything with it right now, it's just kind of existing in the back of my mind until i decide what i want to do with it. which honestly will probably take a while but that's chill, i'm not on a deadline or anything, so she can simmer back there as long as she needs/wants. plus i have my selfcare fantasy book that will never see the light of day which is 4.

🌫️Fog: What was the hardest part of your WIP to write?

Yeah ok. so my current untitled wip has a few of Those Scenes, yknow the ones that are so emotional you have to listen to phoebe bridgers on loop and set aside your entire day to write it alone in your room because it just takes so much out of you. depending on the kind of emotion i sometimes find them super fun (like arguments i think are super fun to write) but there was this one scene that was just SO draining and SO debilitating to write that i literally had to redact the entire thing after i wrote it. i reread the stuff i've written before a lot because it gets me back in the groove of the story and i actually cannot stand to ever read that scene ever again so it is blacked out <3 it's not a bad scene it's just very emotional and it made me cry teehee

tysm for the ask bestie!!!!!

Genuinely what are any of us talking about

🔥 Wildfire - Who is your most emotional character and why?

🌙 Eclipse - What's the most common / reoccurring theme of your WIP(s)?

🔥Wildfire: my most emotional character of ALL of my wips? probably (definitely) ty from tbaeoe because that man is a WRECK.

🌙Eclipse: pretty much every single thing i have ever written is about family dynamics, in one way or another. i know i also write a lot about queerness/queer experiences

tysm for the ask!!

dude you should have been at the club last night it was insane. the dj was playing the lament and funeral of hector from the iliad and everyone was beating their breasts and tearing open their garments. at the end we all built up a funeral pyre in the middle of the dance floor and set it aflame. we were all feeling the inherent human connection through millennia old poetry, it was wild

why is achilles the only demigod who's Like That? like he's my boy but u don't see memnon or aeneas or sarpedon acting like him on the reg. why is he so maladjusted? like specifically? I saw his mother once and was so terrified by the sight of a goddess I flung myself to the ground and hid my face in the dirt til she left but I still don't think that accounts for it idk

❓ myrmidons-confessions

I was the one who wrote the achilles/agamemnon 100k slowburn enemies to lovers rpf and put it on the group chat but now patroclus is calling me 'agachilles boy' and laughing about it and asking if I can proofread his mock bardic epic where all his dogs are heroes and killing people, so I fear I've made a mistake. I also can't look achilles in the eye anymore... but honestly I've never seen proof he can read so I might be safe

imagine being the achaeans and your best warrior gets killed by PARIS, after everyone else had awesome deaths at the hands of sarpedon or hector or memnon... like that's literally so embarassing I just know achilles is fucking fuming down in hades rn. I bet the achaeans are gonna put around that paris was guided by apollo, or that paris happened to hit his only weak spot..... anything 2 try and make it less cringe.... lol lol we're popping the biggest bottles tonight. hope helen's there

☁️ Cloudy - What inspired you to start writing your WIP? (or in general)

⚡️Lightning - Have you ever spontaneously added something to your story that you wouldn't have added normally? If so, what made you do it?

i know i watched a movie about ppl who worked at a sandwich shop near a beach so my hypothesis is that i was like ok word i love the beach. now how do i make this depressing as hell. i do love the beach tho i've always wanted to set a book in a beach town

⚡️Lightning: yes! tbaeoe got a murder subplot at one point <3 would love to know why!
