spag check?

***

Anyone feel like doing a spag check on 9k of m/m fic in a fandom i cannot name for ~reasons~?  It is E rated but has nothing in it that would require a specific kink tag. 

Volunteer rewarded with gratitude and a ficlet of their choice in any fandom I know enough to write in or original.


Goal achieved, thank you [personal profile] smallhobbit!

Friday Five

My responses to [community profile] thefridayfive for 6/13/25.

1. What item would you be embarrassed for people to know you own?
None that I can think of.

2. What is something you splurged on just for you?
I'm on a tight budget, so I try not to splurge often. But I did cave in and buy a bunch of new funko pops last month.

3. What is something that you own with no real world value that is priceless to you?
Probably my scrapbooks and my box of keepsake items.

4. Do you collect anything?
So much stuff! My main collections are Star Wars, Comic Books, Funko Pops, Furby, My Little Pony, and dragon figurines.

5. What item belonging to a friend/family member do you covet?
My younger brother has an autographed photo of Roy Rogers that my mom gifted to him ages ago. (We had a few DVDs of old westerns while growing up and Roy Rogers was one of our favorites.) I'd love to add it to my western movie collection if he ever wants to sell it.

my fansite! and some other updates

It has been a while, hasn't it? Life has been pretty rough and bumpy lately, and I'm pretty sure Fannish 50 is going to be a bust (I'd love to be able to at least finish the one post I've been planning since the beginning lol) but I'm trying to stay hopeful that things will settle down soon. Next month... I'll be able to do things...

First thing first: I finally have a working website!! Isn't that exciting?? It's a Pokémon X&Y fansite, of course, largely about Lysandre, but also about other things. I'm really happy with it, and really looking forward to putting more things on there. The next thing on my list is probably going to be signing up to all the webrings I've been collecting lol. I also joined [community profile] smallweb but I'm too nervous to talk about it there yet...


Click on the banner to check it out! :D


I've been advertizing it everywhere and seeing people's reactions to it makes me so pumped to work on it more!!! Maybe this will be the push that leads me to finally translate more of Pokémon X&Y's French translation into English, lol. Not to mention, with Z-A on the horizon, I'm sure there'll be plenty more to say... By the way, if you have a website with a 88x31 button, I'd love to put you on my links page! Same if you know of any cool Pokémon fansites I don't already have listed there :3c

In real life news, we had to move one more time than we thought we would have to, which sucked, but we're mostly past that now. We're decorating our Official Permanent Place (what a relief to be able to say this!) and it's coming along nicely. I have my own little corner and everything. Observe:


This picture is no longer 100% accurate now because we've added more stuff but it should give you a good idea...


I'll also be "tabling" at Citrus Con this year! It's my first time doing a virtual con, and it's kind of happening in the middle of us having to deal with traveling and a bunch of other stuff, so it's kind of stressful and I have no idea what to expect lmao, but I'm trying not to overthink it too much. o7 It's free to join, and it's helping me get some stuff I wanted to get in order so I can start doing more business online anyway, so none of it will be a waste no matter what. Maybe I'll see you there!

Having written all that, maybe I've gotten more than I thought done in the first half of 2025... I'll keep at it! Hope everyone reading this is doing well in any case! Thank you for reading! (^_−)☆

...and happy pride month, of course!!!

Wednesday What I'm...

Reading
  • I read more of Lirael by Garth Nix. I'm about halfway through now I think!
  • I listened to more of In an Absent Dream by Seanan McGuire. I am enjoying the goblin market parts, though I do wish there was a little more about the world outside of Lundy.
  • I read Slammed In The Butt By My Sentient Plant Based Vegetarian Cheeseburger by Chuck Tingle. I bought this one years ago and finally got around to reading it. A good time!
  • I read I'm In Love With The Handsome Mummy Racecar In My Butt by Chuck Tingle. Some very interesting worldbuilding going on in this, and that's saying something for Tinglers lol
  • I started Spirit Bound by Richelle Mead (Vampire Academy #5). It's been quite awhile since I read the fourth book, but it's been really easy to get back into. So many Dmitri feels!!
  • Ficwise, I was reading more Will/Ethan until I got a sudden craving for Gradence, so I've been doing some rereading of my faves. For such bad movies, the fic writers really have done a lot to create a great world and characters.
Watching
  • For the Mission: Impossible marathon, the roommate and I watched the last one before the current movie, Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning. It was fucking terrible?? I don't know how it has such good ratings on IMDb and such because the dialogue was awkward and stilted, 90% of it was exposition that they kept unnecessarily repeating, they threw in a random backstory and seemed to forget everything else from previous movies, the fight scenes were boring and badly choreographed, they screwed both Rebecca Ferguson and Hayley Atwell in different ways... I could go on, but I think that's enough ranting lol
  • The roommate and I caught up on Game Changer. Very fun!
  • AEW as usual. Vaguely intrigued by the possibility of more Swerve/Hangman, but otherwise mostly pretty meh.
Listening
  • Nothing.
Writing
  • I wrote some poetry. I really failed at writing for NaPoWriMo, but I'm trying to work my way through the prompts still.
  • I edited a fic, which has now joined the giant backlog of fics I have to be posted :)

Summer Podfic Swap 2025

Dear Podficcer,

If you're thinking of podficcing something for me, thank you so much. I’m going to love it! I hope you have a fun time with [personal profile] summerpodficswap 2025 :-)

Are you interested in podficcing my works? I’d absolutely love that! You can find my written works at [archiveofourown.org profile] flowerdeluce  and my '(words by) peasina' psued. If a story of mine has been podded before, even by me, please go for it! I’d love to hear your take

***Podfic Likes:
  • Gen to mature rated stories. 
  • Background sounds/ambience throughout. E.g. rain, waves, crackling fireplace.
  • SFX & soundscapes – From having a sound indicate section/chapter breaks to reproducing sounds mentioned in the story, I’ll love it. (I also love podfics without SFX, so don’t feel like you have to include them.)
  • Podfics with streaming options – My setup makes downloading tricky, so I’d appreciate being able to stream my gift if possible.
  • Unconventional formats – Epistolary, mission reports, meta & essays, etc. (Note: I’m not keen on oral not!fic.)
  • Image descriptions – If there’s imagery/art in the work you record, I’d love to hear a description of it. The more detailed the better.
  • Whispered/ASMR style recordings, my beloved.
***General Likes: 5+1 things, food and cooking-related stories (including food kink), whump, hurt/comfort, hair (touching, stroking, brushing, washing, tugging, etc.), angst (with or without a happy ending), one character carrying another, time loops, groundhog day, missing scenes, canon divergent AUs, shielding the one you love from harm with your body, character A helps character B through a panic attack

***Do Not Wants: crossovers, readerfic, genderswaps, trans headcanons, poetry, amputation (canon amputations can be referenced, but please don’t pod me stories that linger on them), setting-change AUs, (e.g., college/university AU), soulmate AUs, mundane AUs (e.g., coffee shop), pods over 2 hours in length

Please note: I have hearing issues and am extremely bothered by sudden loud noises. If you include any sound effects or your podfic features shouting, for example, please could their volume match the rest of the pod. Otherwise, please warn me of their timestamps so I am prepared. Thank you!

Pokemon - All Media Types

If a story focuses on a Pokemon, I'd love to hear it as a podfic. My favourites: Magnemite, Chansey, Drifloon, Clefairy, Oddish, Stunfisk, Sandy Shocks, Drifblim, Togepi, Regigigas, Gloom, Vileplume, Magneton, Koffing, Unown, Arceus, Latios, Weezing, Sigilyph, Spiritomb, Chandelure, Mudsdale, Gastrodon, Porygon, Alakazam, Sandygast, Bellsprout, Dratini, Clamperl, though honestly a podfic about any Pokémon would make my day. I don't have any ships in this fandom and no great interest in particular human characters besides Iono, though I'm fine with any featuring if the story is mostly focused on Pokemon. I also love original characters in this fandom.

Severance (TV)
Favourite characters: Burt Goodman (and/or Burt G.), Irving Bailiff (and/or Irving B.)
Favourite ships: Burt/Irving

Our Flag Means Death (TV)
Favourite characters: Israel Hands, Lucius Spriggs
Favourite ships: Israel Hands/Lucius Spriggs, Israel Hands/Edward Teach

Thor (Movies)
Characters: Thor, Loki
Ships: Loki/Thor, Loki/The Grandmaster, Thor/Loki/The Grandmaster
Note: I haven't seen Love and Thunder yet!

Night at the Museum (Movies)
Favourite ship: Jedediah/Octavius

The Slow Mo Guys RPF
Favourite ship: Gavin Free/Dan Gruchy

Friday Five

My responses to the [community profile] thefridayfive for 6/6/2025.

1. Have you ever been to summer camp?
No.

2. Have you ever made a s'more?
Yes. My family used to have bonfires in one of the outer fields every autumn and we'd roast marshmallows and make s'mores.

3. Have you ever slept under the stars (no tent/tarp)?
No. I'm very much not an outdoorsy person.

4. Have you ever had a member of the opposite sex sleep over at your house?
Yes

5. What type of bed do you have (queen, twin, bunk, etc.)?
Twin

Fandom events in 2025 be like:

>'Can I-?' Just have fun!! :) We're here to create! To enjoy ourselves! Or don't. I can't tell you what to do! :P As long as you make something vaguely completion-shaped, we'd love to see it! <3

>Use of AI, in any way, shape, or form, is strictly prohibited. If you are caught using AI on your works, you will be banned from this and any/all of our future events. This includes using AI to rephrase sentences.
RNG is perfectly fine, but AI is not allowed.

Wednesday What I'm...

Reading
  • Read some more on Lirael by Garth Nix. Love this book <3
  • I started listening to In an Absent Dream by Seanan McGuire (Wayward Children #4). Lundy wasn't a character I was particularly interested in before, but I'm enjoying this so far. Plus, I am a sucker for a Goblin Market!
  • Ficwise, I've been reading/rereading a bunch of Mission: Impossible fic, specifically Will/Ethan. Lots of fun, and I'm happy that I've already found several good fics I hadn't read before.
Watching
  • The roommate and I want to see the new Mission: Impossible movie that just came out in theaters, so we decided to rewatch all the previous movies. So much fun, love these movies! We've made it through Mission: Impossible, Mission: Impossible 2, Mission: Impossible III, Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol (my favorite! also the first one I watched, all for Jeremy Renner lol), Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation (the roommate's favorite), and Mission: Impossible - Fallout. All that's left is Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning, which neither of us have seen before.
  • AEW as usual. Mostly bummed this week about some releases, particularly Abadon not being renewed when their contract is up. Hopefully they'll do some more GCW, that'd be nice.
Listening
  • Nothing.
Writing
  • I finished up my [community profile] idproquo assignment, I think. There's still some potential to flesh out the ending some more, depending on how I feel this week.
  • For my goal of writing a fic for every book I read this year, I wrote a fic for You and Me and the Airbnb by Rena Butler.
  • The roommate and I went to a queer writers event at the library and one of the panels we went to was a workshop on love poetry. I wrote a poem during that.
  • Submitted some poetry to a lit mag.
