#fic talks

coming out of my mini hiatus to reply to this but I've got a lot of complicated feelings towards it. the author is arguably my new favourite writer and I love the way that they handle the heavy themes, I love how nothing is sugarcoated and I adore how they're able to make you care for a set of characters over only a few chapters.

with that being said, I do feel very complicated about the ending. it was definitely realistic and it made me feel a lot of things. I rushed to read it the second I got this ask instead of going back to sleep sksksksks

I will say that putting it on an external website with all the music and all was fantastic. it really got you into what was happening. the fact that they did all this out of pure enjoyment and for free? absolutely admirable.

I recommend that everyone looking for a good angsty, realistic story go read crying during sex by @wraithaku . arguably one of the most beautiful things I have ever read. I'll probably come with more thoughts after I've sat with it for a bit, but to the author, thank you for all of your hard work. you're absolutely amazing ❤️

❤️Intro & Masterpost❤️

HI pals! You can call me Fic! A pretty random blog where I put my fics, analysis, ramble and interests in general! I have a lot of fandoms, Sonic, musicals, animations, The Blind Prince webtoon, series, etc. I'm trying organize here a little bit more 😅

Feel free to ask me things and basically have fun!

“Dreaming about stars” I wonder where they are? I ask them once what is life’s purpose And they answered me with sweet murmurs My dare child said a blue star You are the only one who decided who you are I’m dreaming about stars so pretty they are Up high with my hopes, my dreams and my soul

Perhaps the most relevant today and the most personal for me, War AU. Mostly AOS, because yes, this universe resonates more sharply with our present. In fact, it can be any situation where things are going worse than they should be, Starfleet is not ideal, and the present is far from utopian. And it's very Star Trek, really, because what is it about if not that people should be better, that having power means using it with mind and heart, that innocents should not suffer, that war is only pain and destruction, and there are no winners. It requires good worldbuilding and a strong plot, but if it works, it works like nothing else.

f!Kirk & f!Spock TOS AU. What if in the 60s, when TOS was filmed, both main characters were female? How do you retell the story of TOS in this light, when it's still impossible to imagine a woman captaining a ship, when the rules of scriptwriting are still governed by misogyny and homophobia? How do you retell this story in a way that will forever change the lives of people who watched the show in the '60s, as the original series did? But I prefer to leave McCoy unchanged, as well as the rest of the main cast.

Modern high school/college/university AOS AU Spock is autistic, Jim is ADHD, both have childhood traumas behind them that they are trying to cope with. I like this idea because of its everydayness, its familiarity, and how supportive it can be told.

1950s academic murder mystery TOS AU. This idea from @missanthropicprinciple and I was TOTALLY IN LOVE when I found it, I want to read it; this reminds me of classic Nancy Drew, and I miss that vibe.

1930s noir detective TOS AU. Honestly, TOS feels great in retro and in the detective genre.
