Hi Cloud! Thank you 💜

I'm trying not to think of a apocalypse!au because I feel like I have so many of those, but I had to look up the definition of volatile and alas 😩

I think this fic would take place in this apocalypse universe where TK and Carlos are traversing around and in the edges of Austin as opposed to scrambling to immediately leave the city when shit hit the fan (idk what exactly the shit was in this universe since I haven't thought that far lol).

Anyways, I think this would be a little ficlet set around when TK and Carlos first ended up together. It's mentioned in the ficlet, but TK recalls moments where his eyes would wander across Carlos body while they change in front of each other so I think this ficlet would be about the first time TK ever truly looked at Carlos under the glow of their campfire before they turn in for the night.

Just a bit sensual, a bit sweet, some angst because this is apocalypse and TK feels bad thinking about things like how hot Carlos is when they've just met and his focus should be more on finding his dad and trying to survive. He wonders how much of this is the proximity he has with Carlos and if this was any other situation he would be thinking these thoughts at all.

one of my best friends pulled me for secret santa just recently this year and she made me a scrapbook with all of the pictures of our acapella group; she wrote the sweetest letter in it and got everyone to write me tiny notes to slip into it along with the photos! it’s so sweet and i look at it every so often to remind myself of my friends and that I love them so much :D

thanks for the ask, love!

Thank you Cloud!

4. if you could do anything at all today, what would it be?

Uhhh idk 🤔 One thing I wish I did today was finish my 2025 reading goal, which was read 10 books this year. Alas Heated Rivalry was my 10th book and I have like, 3hrs left and less than 1hr left of the year 😅

11. What kind of music is stuck in your head a lot lately?

A lot of Conan Gray. Vodka Cranberry in particular!

Because I've waited my whole life to tell someone how much I love cirrus clouds

Oh hell yes cirrus (and its variants) are my second favourite cloud :))))

Especially when they catch the sunlight in the late evening and go pink, ahhhhh its so pretty!!

By all means of course! I'm glad to hear I was able to help you in a way. Fic titles are always one the things that take a bit to figure out.

Hi Cloud! I'm very flattered and honoured you feel that way so thank you 💜

I don't have a favourite I've written of all time, but my favourite one I wrote last year was probably I hope you know because I'm surprised I was able to write something that fast and in a way where I was proud of the execution (I was able to say what I wanted to say in the way I wanted to say it so to speak.)

💖 I have answered already, but here are the other two—

🥸 Does anyone in IRL know you write fanfic or original fiction? If not, do you plan on telling anyone this year?

There is one person who knows for sure I do (Hi @paperstorm 👋🏻) and I think my younger sib and two of my non-internet friends have an idea (edit: or I guess two of them know about the poems I've written since I showed them, but not the fics), but I've never confirmed it. As for if I'm planning on telling anyone, probably not unless they ask in a way that's not going to be met with judgement if I answer honestly.

🦷 Is there a chapter, scene, or WIP you're dreading to write (but is necessary to your plot)? Share a snippet or tell us about it!
