CQL/The Untamed. Wangxian. Art and occasionally fic. A discourse and current events free space: I curate my online experience ruthlessly. alightbuthappypen on tumblr and dreamwidth too.
I'm back on my pwp bullshit but feeling very like "aren't all the sex scenes I write basically the same though. Do I really have anything new to say about this"
I should have known this was a risk when I committed to a fic made up entirely of porny vignettes, and yet

also unrelatedly if someone could do a sex scene supercut of heated rivalry so I don't have to try and watch something with sport in it that would be great

it's extremely difficult for me not to quote-post from this account every single day with "THEY ARE IN LOVE"

omg I take it all back, figured out how to get the subs to show, the project is back on
Oh my god I've spent ALL DAY on this, trying three programs and finally finding one that didn't immediately crash only to discover that it won't hardcode subs OR create a menu button to view them, rendering it functionally useless for my needs

Spent most of yesterday evening and this morning rereading the amnesia curse wip. It's not only the longest but also I think the yearningest thing I've ever written.
Worried by how much I like it though, like maybe that means it's actually rubbish

Of course after it's finally posted I feel a lot better about the exchange fic, and now have the agony of not being able to promote it until creator reveals next week 😩

To describe their emotions so vividly, to "feel" every one of their kisses - that's a true talent!
I love this #WangXian fic so much!
There's an unfinished 2nd part, too!🥹💙❤️

Cannot believe I managed to get the exchange fic to a point where I don't feel completely mortified about posting it. I struggled with it so much and I think it shows but I DID IT

While I work on a current exchange thing how about reposting this past exchange thing, still possibly the most fun I've had on a piece of fanart (the exchange theme was 'close quarters', and the prompt was 'tied together') #wangxian

Periodically remember this moment of total naivety, 16 April 2020, 20 episodes into cql "probably not going to be fannish about this one fellas, I think it'll be fine"

It's been a while since my neighbour (not that one, the other one) has played his music obnoxiously loud but today, the day I am truly hanging onto sanity by my fingernails, is his day
