"I'm pretty sure that wasn't supposed to happen."
Sorry about the wait! I also went in the direction of a rarepair... Hope that's OK. If not, I can try to re work it or you can send in a different sentence. (Also I tweaked to the prompt a bit.... just put in a comma instead of a period. Hope that's OK.)
"I'm pretty sure that wasn't supposed to happen," Gloria states once Shannon drops her vice like grip on her hand; she's marched them into a stair way, away from the hospital ward and away from prying eyes.
The plan had been to drive O'Reily crazy by pretending to date each other - it had been the only ethical plan they could come up with to get their revenge on him - and for the past few months it had been going well.
But Gloria wasn't supposed to look forward to meeting up with Shannon O'Reily, wasn't supposed to miss her company when she was gone and she certainty wasn't supposed to "accidentally" brush hands with her whenever they were close.
And Shannon wasn't supposed to kiss her - like she was dying and only Gloria could save her - in the middle of the hospital ward, in front of her colleagues and patients; Tim and O'Reily had made the most beautiful choking noise that she should actually look into when she gets back - but not right now - right now she feels giddy and warm in ways she hasn't in years.
"Want do it again?"

Hi, saw you reblogged the thing about it being okay to send asks about your fics, and I'm curious as to what inspired you to write Suzanne/Tessie if you feel like talking about it? (They hadn't occurred to me, but it's interesting to think about them, given that we didn't get much about Tessie especially.)
Hello, I don't mind talking about it!
The short answer is that my brain is weird and that I over analyzed the hell out of one scene.
I have this tendency to fixate on the dead or absentee females (the "dead wife" for example) in shows, for what ever reason... so Tessie was already kind of in my brain from that first flashback of her.
And then Suzanne showed up, and I really liked her character despite Ryan not being one of my favorites. (I like his character, I just like other charcters more) And then there was this scene in at the end of season 5, episode 5 were the O'Reily family has a meeting about getting Cyril a lawyer.
In it Suzanne mentions that Seamus and Tessie didn't wait very long to get together after Suzanne left, which in my mind sounded like she was aware of Tessie...and she seemed shocked and upset when Seamus told her just how long he had been seeing Tessie. The whole scene was tense and kind of bitter in a way that probably was to show that Suzanne and Ryan had been talking and that at one point they had been a family.
But, to my ears, Suzanne also sounded a bit jealous??? So my brain went into "what if" mode: what if they had been friends, which makes this whole situation messier (and therfore more fun!), what if Tessie getting with Seamus had nothing to do with him but instead was about Suzanne, what if Suzanne coming back was more about Tessie then about Ryan, what if they had been girlfriends?!?!?!
And well things spiraled from there 🤪
And there were no fics for it, so I tried my hand at writing! That was the first creative writing I've done since high school, which was a long time ago! But it was fun so!!
I kinda like this messy pairing, so I think that I'm going to continue with it for a while! 😆
Sorry for the rambling! Hope that makes sense!
Thank you!
Can I interest any of the Joe Toye stans in a Miguel Alvarez? Can I PLEASE interest any of the Joe Toye stans in a Miguel Alvarez???

Prisoner 97A413, Miguel Alvarez
He's going through it.
Once upon a time I posted a Miguel/Chico snippet here, and I eventually decided to finish the scene into a PWP fic. I thought it would be under 5k. I was terribly wrong. (It's 13k-ish.)
Sigh.

Summary:
After Chico questions Miguel's reluctance to stir up trouble in front of everyone, Miguel decides it's definitely time they had a talk about that in private. But he maybe lets too much slip. (Set in S2, before El Cid arrives.)

Ah, yes, Oz fic - the place where there are "canon typical slurs". (Sorry, it's a harsh show full of beautiful bastards!) Okay, maybe this fic isn't my best work (why is the smut scene so long???), but I finished it! Thing was in my brain, and now it's a completed fic! Sure, it's not as nice as it was in my brain, but it exists!
One of his best looks and I am so grateful
Let's talk OZ
I honestly believe HBO’s OZ would have been so fucking popular on this website if it had been released during this time and not 1997.
Not only is the story great, the characters are great, the actors are great, the development is great, the CANON dysfunctional queer characters and relationships are great. Even though I’m not giving out too much detail and It might sound like I’m over hyping it but there is a reason why it was HBO number one show and it is honestly still such a fun fucking watch, it’s just an incredible show that I think everyone should take the time to binge watch
Chico in recovery could heal my depression.
Sketches i did on ibis paint, was trying a punch of cool brushes and also trying to draw Miguel’s face.
they could be besties , no one getting shot lol. can’t think of a conversation they might be having…
He got his necklace back.
To be honest dr.Nathan would have given it to Chico.
