Masterlist under the cut (updated 02/27/25)
Original Work
-> Card Trick [Horror & Comedy, T, 555, 2024] â Never Walk Into The Bog
-> Sleight of Hand [Horror & Comedy, T, 1k, 2024] â Caroline moved to the foothills to have an escape. She gets to work nine to five and then the world is her oyster from five to nineâthatâs what the real estate agent promised. She hasnât been on a walk once in the six months that sheâs lived here. Today that changes.
Avatar: the Last Airbender
-> No Offense To The Universe or Whatever, But Iâd Choose My Family Over Mystic Cosmic Energy Any Day [Gen, G, 1k, 2019] â A rewrite of the scene in S02E19: âThe Guruâ where Aang locks his final chakra because he canât give up his earthly attachments but with more platonic love and sibling bonds this time around.
Friends
-> The One Where Rachel Comes Out [Rachel/Monica, T, 3k, 2021] â A rewrite of S01E24 âThe One Where Rachel Finds Outâ where Rachel and Monica are together, and finding out about Rossâs feelings sort of throws them for a loop since no one knows.
Gilmore Girls
-> All To Reveal A Secret We Canât Hide [Gen, T, 1k, 2018, Fandom Ace Fest] â Asexual and Biromantic!Rory coming out to her mom. Set approximately in Season 3, so mentioned Rory/Jess, but no actual Rory/Jess scenes or anything.

-> I Can Hate You From A Distance, I Can Learn To Let You Go [Gen, T, 839, 2024] â Rory & Paris take on this prompt: roommate A grabs the baseball bat only to find roommate B eating pickles and macarons in the kitchen at 4 in the morning. AU after Bridesmaid Revisited where Rory and Logan stay broken up.
-> The Art of Failing [Rory/Jess, T, 2k, 2023] â Itâs the 2008 recession. Rory loses her job, but finds a friend.
-> this could be good (i canât change even if i wanted to) [Paris/Rory, T, 3k, 2018] â Roryâs girlfriend invites her to a fancy Hanukkah celebration held by her family, but there are a few problems: Rory has no idea how to act at a fancy event and nobody knows that Rory and Paris are dating.
-> three words, two hearts, one maybe [Paris/Rory, T, 2k, 2018] â Rory and Paris (finally) get together. Set in their senior year at Yale, slight AU, where Doyle broke up with Paris at some point and Rory didnât get back with Logan after she found out about all the girls he slept with during Thanksgiving (because she actually had standards- and another blonde in her life).
-> we are not perfect, but weâll learn from our mistakes [Paris/Rory, T, 1k, 2018] â Paris tries to make coffee for Rory with horrible results. Set sometime after season seven but the Revival doesnât exist here.

I really like this website because somebody will be like âthereâs nothing wrong with darting out from behind a parked car into traffic, bootlickerâ and you can be like okay this clearly evolved from a valid point about how the US is too car-centric. But something happened to it.

"A marriage ending isn't a failure at all. I spent eleven years with her. We were so in love that we couldn't image life apart from each other. We got our own place, adopted a dog, and supported each other through school. I thought if tow people loved each other enough the rest would fall into place, except... love isn't everything.
And I didn't want to believe that, but we were sitting in counseling one day, talking about our future and I realized we were describing two completely different lives. Where we'd live, what kind of life we wanted, what made us happy. And it hit me that- I love this woman and this woman loved me. And after eleven years of loss, grief, career changes, we were so deeply in love... but we weren't aligned. And I kept thinking 'We just need to try harder. We can find some compromise to make this work,' because that's what you're supposed to do when you love someone, right?
But the reality was, we had just become different people. Her trade school took her in one direction, my graduate degree in another and trying to force us back into who we were five years ago wasn't coming from a place of love. It was coming from a place of fear. Fear that, if this ended, it meant we wasted eleven years. But sitting there across from her, I realized: That's not how love works.
Those eleven years happened. They were real. The dog, our home, showing up for each other through grad school and trade school. I wouldn't change a single thing because loving someone doesn't mean you're meant to stay with them forever. And letting go doesn't erase what you had. We measure marriage by whether it lasts forever or not, but what if we measured it by whether it mattered?
What if we measured it by the love we gave, the life we built, and the people we became? Because love's job isn't to last forever, it's to help you become fully completely yourself, and sometimes the most loving thing you can do is give each other permission to be yourselves, separately. But the dog doesn't know were' divorced. He just gets two Christmases now."
Pulled this from this guy Preston Rakovsky's Instagram (@prestonrack) because it is a beautiful perspective on love, marriage, and relationships in general.
people will say âtheyâre only friendsâ and then show me two people who would crawl through broken glass to hear the other laugh once. two people who have memorized each otherâs coffee orders, fears, childhood stories, and emergency contacts. two people who would haunt each otherâs houses as ghosts. be serious.
Just an FYIâthe original intention of this post was to challenge the way people say only friends, as though friendship is somehow lesser than other forms of love. As if being deeply known, cherished, and chosen by another person could ever be a small thing. Normalize profound platonic love. Some of the most fulfilling, transformative, and enduring relationships we will ever have are friendships. đ«¶đŒ
We watched toy story 2 today and they say suicide prominently in the first act. So whenever someone says "unalive," they are operating at a sub-toy story level of vocabulary maturity
