Like, what the hell.

Iron Lung Convict x Cosmic Entity Reader

Yeah, I'm making a masterlist for this series, because that's what it's turning into. I'm going to put any pieces in here in order of when they were written, which means later on stories might not necessarily be in 'chronological order', but we'll see. Later on I might switch them around to be in chronological order if that is the case. Stories that aren't necessarily 'canon' to the series as well as any posts about world-building will also be included in this list eventually in their own little categories.

Content Warning/Tags (individual pieces have their own tags) for the series as a whole so far:

Gender neutral reader, spoilers for Iron Lung including Convict's name (but you knew that), fluff, hurt and comfort, bonding, cosmic/eldritch entity Reader, slow burn, descriptions of injuries, descriptions of lasting affects of said injuries, whump, hurt minimal comfort, angst, near-death experience, aftermath of a fight, Convict POV, Reader POV, NSFT, praise kink, switch Convict, switch Reader, smut, Major Character Death, Hurt/No Comfort, Hopeful Ending, more to come...

Cosmic Entity WIP by but-vanessa's sister

“It’s funny,” I told Flewin. “We have an old Nintendo Game Boy floating around the house, and Tetris is the only game we own. My wife will sometimes dig it out to play on airplanes and long car rides. She’s weirdly good at it. She can get 500 or 600 lines, no problem.”

What Flewin said next I will never forget.

“Oh, my!”

The husband was writing an article on classic video game records, was surprised to find out that holding the Tetris record is a bit of a big deal, and mentions how good his wife is at it.

The guy he’s talking to mentions that the record is 327, way lower than his wifes usual scores of 500-600.

They travel to a tournament, and she goes to do her attempt. Just after she beats 327, and is climbing higher, a judge brings up to the husband that the specific version she’s playing actually has a different record of 545.

The protagonist has just won the world famous sword fighting competition in the big, rich capital and is talking to his mentor, and says something about being the best swordsman in the world. The mentor frowns and tells him that no, he isn't. He is the best swordsman out of the people that could afford to show up to this tournament. There could be a mercenary way out in the mountains, patrolling a snow encrusted fort's walls that could kick his ass and there was no way to know until he was already losing to the guy.

Let’s play the biggest game of kick the can on the internet.

Yesterday my entire blog was terminated TWICE without warning by Tumblr while I was tagging the folks in my Pope taglist in the comments. There was no warning, no email. I just hit 'enter' and boom I got the termination notice.

Almost 10k followers and thousands of fics gone in an instant.

I raised a ticket and an hour later the blog was reactivated. There was no info about what I did wrong but an email that said, it’s been reactivated. I still didn't have one that told me why I had been terminated. Two mins later I went back to the taglist and picked up where I left off with the Pope taglist and immediately, as soon as I clicked 'enter' it happened again.

So, I raised another ticket.  

It’s my belief that they’ve activated a bot to stop scammers from tagging loads of folks in those ‘send me money for fake charity’ posts they do, and unfortunately if you have a big taglist you’ll fall into that net too.

I’m not sure how this effects people who put their taglists in the actual post, but I imagine they’ll also be cracking down on that at some point if scammers start to use that method.
