do one good thing before you go

while i'm here complaining about things i want to do, i also think it would be awesome to write a fic in which sentences and phrases are linked to the other works that inspired them or that are closely connected to them. a line about a vampire purring probably Should get linked to audioeidolon but realistically will get pointed at salemoleander as well. long dark hallways point straight to the only good veycant fic in the world. a shelby+scott interaction footnoted with the post about how "it's just you". Blood And Punishment because i wanted to talk about soldiers marching into their graves, over which trees would grow, and spineless creature in the dark for pyro-as-renfield, and Down to the Wire for the word recondite.

i can't even be like "the only way forward is to post some dogshit shelby/owen so that others are forced to write good shelby/owen out of spite" because clearly people AREN'T DOING THAT. cruel to me
