Read both chapters of Sandalwood, a Mihawk/Zoro fic set at Kuraigana during the timeskip, here:

archiveofourown.org/works/708409...

Featuring slow burn, dom Mihawk/sub Zoro, masochism, sword kink, wound play, mentor/protege, some ansgty Zoro backstory, and more UST than you can shake a sword at.
How does it feel?” Zoro closes his eyes and smiles to himself. He feels warm all over, inside and out. “You know how it feels when you've had a good fight.” It's not a question. Of course Mihawk knows. “It feels like that. Like…” He waves a clumsy hand, as if he might be able to pluck the right word from the air. “Empty.” “Fighting makes you feel empty?” “No, not like…” It's hard to explain this stuff. Would be hard even if he hadn’t just finished most of a bottle of fortified wine. “I mean, empty like… unburdened. Weightless, you know? Like you've cleared out all the bullshit and now there’s enough space in you.” “Space for what?” Zoro lets himself sink more fully into the velvet couch. It's funny, just talking about it makes him feel an echo of it, that feeling he gets when he's had the shit beaten out of him by a worthy opponent, by Mihawk, the only man to ever beat him, a feeling like he's floating in salt water at the whim of the tide and the deep sea currents. “I dunno yet,” he says, still smiling.

I remember when there was a discussion on Twitter about Shein's manufacturing practices and some apologists invented all sorts of fantastical machinery and technology to avoid facing the more horrifying truth. Reminds me of this comedian's joke.

The people who make Shein's clothes labor for ten to twelve hours per day (in violation of China's labor laws), some up to seven days a week, and earn as little as 15 to 30 cents per t-shirt.
Excerpt from a BBC article: ""We usually work, 10, 11 or 12 hours a day," says a 49-year-old woman from Jiangxi unwilling to give her name. "On Sundays we work around three hours less." She is in an alleyway, where a dozen people are huddled around a row of bulletin boards. They are reading the job ads on the board, while examining the stitching on a pair of chinos draped over it. This is Shein's supply chain. The factories are contracted to make clothes on order - some small, some big. If the chinos are a hit, orders will ramp up and so must production. Factories then hire temporary workers to meet the demand their permanent staff cannot fulfil. The migrant worker from Jiangxi is looking for a short-term contract - and the chinos are an option. "We earn so little. The cost of living is now so high," she says, adding that she hopes to make enough to send back to her two children who are living with their grandparents. "We get paid per piece," she explains. "It depends how difficult the item is. Something simple like a t-shirt is one-two yuan [less than a dollar] per piece and I can make around a dozen in an hour.""

If you can't enjoy the mental image of you climbing into the lap of a sexy 50 yo man while he delicately tries to hold you away from him, saying "We absolutely CAN'T, you're FAR too young for me" while he remains on a KNIFES EDGE of shameful lust, then I cannot help you

And here's a teeny tiny #WIPWednesday extract, from an upcoming One Piece fic I'm having entirely too much fun with.
“Never have I ever… jerked off in the men's cabin.” The immediate uproar is, objectively, hilarious. Zoro exchanges a grin with Nami across the circle they’re all sitting in on the Merry's main deck while the other guys lose their fucking minds, tipping his open bottle of beer at her in respect. She might be a witch, but he can appreciate a worthy opponent.

Nearly forgot #WIPWednesday!

OFMD fic for the first time in a while ☺️

Some sprizzy bitchiness - in which our beloved crew have been tasked with making macaroni art for each other, and Lucius and Izzy have put exactly as much care and thoughtfulness into the assignment as one might expect.
Pete opened his mouth to reply, and was interrupted by a distinctive, gravelly voice from behind him. “Oi, Twatty,” the voice said. “I made you some fucking art.” Izzy shoved a piece of paper down in front of Lucius hard enough that the table wobbled, Lucius’s precious fusilli sculpture teetering precariously. “Don’t eat it all at once.” Lucius’s eyes narrowed as he stared down at the piece of A4 printer paper, which was boldly emblazoned with the word TWAT spelled out in dry penne, all in capital letters. “This just says twat.” “Yeah.” Izzy sniffed. “It's personalised. You're fucking welcome.” Distantly, Lucius heard Pete sigh and mutter, “Here we go.” He ignored it and rose to his feet, enjoying every single inch of height he had over the angry little man in front of him. “What a weird coincidence,” he said. “I just made <i>you</i> some art, too.” He twisted the sculpture around, so that the giant hand (it was a giant hand) was giving the finger (the giant hand was giving the finger) to Izzy directly. “I really think it expresses my inner feelings towards you.” Izzy’s face started to turn that awful red colour it tended towards when he was angry. A vein on the side of his head was visibly pulsing, Lucius noted with great satisfaction. “What'm I supposed to do with this?” he growled. Lucius shrugged casually. “Choke on it?” he suggested.

In nicer news, my sewing classes started up again without the difficult people who were making it so unpleasant last term, and it was really lovely! We made coin purses today, just getting to grips with the machines and the fabrics, and they turned out so cute and it was a really nice atmosphere.

I never want to seem ungrateful for comments on my fic, because I am so, so grateful. And I know this person probably means really well. But I can't help finding comments like this really dispiriting 😔
A notification from AO3 that someone left a comment on chapter 2 of Sandalwood that says "Nothing else? I was robbed 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭"

What a day.

Son had a tough time, some meltdowns and struggles (thumped seven bells out of me and called me an ugly monster 🙃) then later on he took himself off out by himself - small heart attack when I heard the door go, I threw on boots and raced after him and found him heading to Sainsburys.

can't believe Ace showed up, made everyone fall in love with him, underwent babygirlification surgery, and then died in a pair of prison issue ballet flats.
