In which John is a little too possessive of his best friend, and Dave is a little too okay with that.

Also: Striderchiefs!”

Ahhh!  Okay, so dominant!John is just way too awesome, seriously.

God, I’m sensing this recurring theme, and this theme has to so with the author.  yii2.  yii2 ii liike thii2.  Anyways, this story is absolutely precious, and it is so funny.  I died a few times reading this, really, it has the best character interaction/dialogue/one liners.  I just—I’m in love, seriously.  The only issue i have with this, is that Jade is a bit slow, but you literally only see her twice, so it’s not super important.

After an incident in the confines of the Strider households kitchen, a little bit of inking action might never be looked at the same way.  Wait…it actually isn’t.  Nope.  Not after what just happened.

((btdubbs, i actually thought this was, like, rated t when i saw it, so 8luh, i don’t always read racey stuff!  XD ))

Okkay, sorry for the text post, but i need to tell someone about this.

Okkay, so if anyone is kookoo for Hetalia, then you might appreciate this post.

So there’s this story called ‘Seven Little Killers’ on ff, and it might possibly be THE BEST STORY I HAVE EVER READ.  I just can’t even tell you all of the feelings I have for it.  it’s about a band of killers.

But, like, not ordinary killers.  I mean, the whole plot is like a giant slap in the face!  you suddenly get everything, and then **words** “FUCK NOTHING MAKES SENSE”.

i just have so many feels for that fic.  

AND THEY JUS UPDATED.  THEY HAVENT UPDATED IN FOREVER. ADKFHASDKJFHADS IM SO HAPPY.

sorry.  i just needed to tall someone… 8,D

e-s-lynnette asked: Yay~ you posted it! p.s. i did not in fact know you shipped rosemary, i just knew it was a good FF that i thought you might read and share :3

((tumblr was being weird and posted this on the wrong blog!  XD))

;)  you secret mind-reader you~  Haha, of course i posted it!  I pretty much have absolutely no life at all, so whenever someone suggests something for me to read, i read it right away!

I’m kind of a speed-reader, as well, so i tend to read things pretty fast, which i feel makes me slightly more qualified for when people suggest things to me~

God, see, here i am babbling!

What I really mean to say is:  THANK YOU FOR THE BEAUTIFUL SUGGESTION. <3

The war with Earth has been over for sweeps, and as part of the numerous peace treaties, the trolls have returned many of the captured humans to their home world. But there are those who remain upon Alternia’s surface, those who had nobody to ask for them by name, who are sold into slavery and worse still.

At the age of eighteen, Rose is finally given a placement: at the hive of one Kanaya Maryam.”

((Thanks for the suggestion e-s-lynnette!))

Normally when I have feels like I do now, I would proceed to keysmash to my hearts content.  But I do actually strive to remain professional sounding when I make these so people will take what I say seriously.  But in reality, this is probably the best Rosemary fic I have ever read!  It seems realistic, and the emotions are so vivid, and the characterization is beautiful.  So, so good.

Rose has a master.  She is trained to expect beatings and sexual assaults, just because she is a slave.  But this mistress…she is different than anything she was prepared for.  It contradicts the previous five years of her life so greatly, she is forced to try and find harshness or hate.  These feelings of kindness from one Kanaya Maryam are unwelcome.  Except that they really aren’t.  Rose just can’t comprehend that someone would be kind to a slave for her.

General Vantas Gets Hitched, or, the Limits of Bilateral Diplomacy: A Black Powder Romance

http://archiveofourown.org/works/360877/chapters/585197#main

((holy shit long title, lol))

In which a mutant too famous to cull is dropped like a grenade into the midst of the peace process, a foolish monarch proves himself secretly shrewd, the power of friendship functions as a force multiplier, and it is discovered that in the Great Game of espionage, the dealer does not always win.”


Ahhh~  This is so good.  It’s a very interesting portrayal of the troll military system.  One of the only issues that I can find in this, and in many other stories, good or not, is that the romance built up a tad bit too fast.  It doesn’t really effect the piece in a bad way, more like…helps the plot a little bit?  Either way, it’s still a very good story, and I love it.


General Vantas is a joke.  The whole fucking peace treaty is a joke, and he is on the wrong end.  He knows that King John will never accept it, and when he doesn’t, he’ll be culled.  Everything about him is a joke.  Until, for some reason, King John accepts the offering.  And then damn red feelings pop up.

BL4CK HOL3, green 2un/The Last Hearing of Gamzee Makara

You’ll get there, he interrupts. He is very calm! That is the worst part. There is not one spark of fear or pain, not one whiff of resistance. He is not afraid. It would be easier if he was afraid. Sit back, amateurs.

Spoilers for EOA5.”

BL4CK HOL3, green 2un is rated T+ and tells the story from Terezi’s POV, and her view of Sollux dying to save them all.  The art is amazing, and the prose is beautiful.  I love their portrayal of Terezi, in all of their stories.

Sollux has just saved them, but at the cost of his own life.  How can she, or anyone, deal with that knowledge?

“It’s a question of jurisdiction.”

The Last Hearing of Gamzee Makara about what happens when Terezi figures out something horrible about Gamzee.  The only question is whether she can stop it, or if she and everyone else will die….

This one is rated M, and you don’t have to read it if you don’t want to.  I suggest it, though, if you can handle gore.  Again, the art and prose are both gorgeous to the extreme, and everything is perfect.  Just saying.

(((These stories go hand-in-hand, but you don’t have to read both of them, if you aren’t interested in the creepiness of Sober!Gamzee.  The only reason I made both of them in one post is because they read sequentially.)))

Sollux Captor, recently drafted into the Service of Her Imperious Condescension, discovers a secret community of Helmsmen hidden inside the Imperial communications network.

Meanwhile on Alternia, Karkat Vantas is up to his goddamn nook in revolution.”

Oh my god, thank you anon, let me just say that really quickly.

This fic is so well written and so clever that I cannot even function.  The way that the author goes about the characterization and the plot itself is so mind-blowing to me.  How something so interesting and beautiful was bestowed upon this authors life is pure amazing.

Sollux knows there is something wrong when he wakes up, but he doesn’t know what…until he can’t feel his body.  Convinced he is going crazy he can’t even function.  Unknown to him though, back on Alternia, a revolution is starting and things are getting more that a little tricky.
