So I'm stuck at relatives' for a couple more days b/c ice storm, so I broke out the wool I brought to make a skirt, but I guess I forgot how to math because I did my side seams and started pinning box pleats to the waistband and had SO MUCH SURPLUS 💀 brb cutting down the panels and starting over 🙃

Reminder: Twelve Days of Ficmas starts on Christmas Day!

Each day from Christmas until Epiphany, I will post a fic or ficlet. Some will be smaller single-scene ficlets, some will be longer and more fleshed out. We got fluff! We got smut! We got at least 3 fandoms rep'd!

See you on Christmas! ❄️

Fic repost!

Friends, it's that time of year. Perhaps you have not read my OT7 mistletoe competition fic. Perhaps you have, but would like to read it again. No longer user locked, I present my second most popular fic ever:

Just went back and unlocked all my fic. I had it user-locked in a vain attempt to protect it from bot scrapers but it's been compromised anyway, so fuck it, no more gatekeeping. If you want to recommend any of my fic to a friend without an ao3 account, now you can! 🙃

Fic Announcement:

✨️12 Days of Ficmas✨️

Starting on Christmas, I'll be posting one fic (or ficlet) every day until Epiphany (January 6).

There will be BTS fic! There will also be Boys Planet/ZB1/XLOV fic! There might even be a couple of other fandoms in there! It'll be an adventure for us all 😌

Reminder to myself, as well as an accountability post: if you want to post the mistletoe fic ON Christmas, you have to write the mistletoe fic BEFORE Christmas 😤

To my friends from LiveJournal I still think about you Wonder if you finally quit, Do you still speak to your mom? I remember when you went to Japan How you swore you'd never forgive him. I can't remember to take my meds but I remember you wanted to live on a houseboat. It's a strange intimacy, all of us unspooling across decades of internet space Like balls of yarn leaving a trail behind us of everywhere and everyone we've ever been I hope you got your houseboat. I hope you got everything. -Hayley DeRoche

I suppose I should also point out that this is my second friends-to-lovers fic involving kitchen sex, in case that appeals to you 😌✨️
