Downloading New Emotion

"Heyyyyyy dad you're home early, it- uh- it's not what it looks like?" "It looks like someone's getting mauled" "Well I like to think the mauling's mutual-aaand he's covering his eyes, uh, stellar choice there, really 10/10 the judges are going wild-" "I'm going to Melissa's. Breakfast in the morning, both of you." "see I told you he wouldn't mind, now calm down and put those headlights away already"

1.5 years of sterek brainrot and I've somehow never drawn derek with red eyes nor the classic trope of the sheriff walking in on them? for shame, mel.

Any story featuring feral derek or him getting a little lost in his instincts are so important to me - this man who never gets to keep anything good in his life digging his claws into stiles and saying no, this one is mine, you can't have him - you see the vision 💭💭

a closeup as well as the lines under the cut, bc i quite like them on their own too:

The one about the ship no one else cares about, or the deeply unpopular character, or the extremely unusual AU?

The fic that got no comments or kudos when you posted it?

Months or years from now, that fic might be exactly what someone is looking for in the sea of fics about all the popular characters, ships, and AUs.

Your fic might be the only fic out there that has what someone is looking for. The only fic that scratches the itch that it turns out you and that reader share.

Anddd there we have it! That's it for the semi-final, Round 6 of Group 1! That's only 4 ships left! And that's only 1 out 16 total groups! So as usual with my polls, you will have 1 week to vote, and the winners of this round will move onto the next round, the the FINAL Round 7 of Group 1, next week, so have fun and vote to your hearts content! And see you next week for round 7!

it’s not weird to love it and comment and leave kudos because the author will probably still see it someday and it will make them happy.

it’s not weird to like said author’s work so much that you want to go look for other fics from them.

it’s not weird to go through the authors profile and look for other fics from the ships you like (or maybe some that you’ll give a chance because you liked the author) and maybe bookmark them for later.

it’s not weird to read these other fics and like them too and comment on them because you actually like them and you want to let the author know.

it’s not weird to read fanfiction from 5, or 8, or 10 years ago and actually enjoy and engage with it because it’s perfectly normal to relate to something that’s less than a decade old!

let’s stop treating fanfiction like they’re instagram posts that stop being interesting in 24 hours! fanfiction is NOT social media, fanfiction is art!!! and art doesn’t get old in one day, one year, or even a decade!

June - any song of your choosing!

July - a song that reminds you of summer

August - a song released before 1970

September - a song by a non-american artist/band

October - a song you might listen to late at night

November - a song from an artist/band with less than 1 milion listeners on spotify

December - a song that reminds you of Christmas time

please remember to tag me (@thiamsongfics) before posting so that I can reblog your posts :)

the most important rule is for you to have fun and be creative (which does mean NO use of AI!!!). you're allowed to either make a post with a blurb and a link to ao3, or post the entire fic on here. there is no minimum or maximum word count and I wont be too strict about the date you post by (if you post it 3 days after the month's end, for example, I will still reblog it. this is all in good fun!)

having said that, please do be respectful towards everyone and tag correctly if your fic deals with explicit or sensitive themes!! thank you!

ps. the prompts for July, October and December are mostly up to your own interpretation :)

you can now add your fic to the official ao3 collection!
