Morgan, she/her. This is where I put all my fandom things. You'll see things from Red, White and Royal Blue, OUAT, the Grishaverse, the MCU, Ted Lasso, and Gilmore Girls!

Traffic Light Tag Game

Thanks @caterpills @cha-melodius and @firenati0n for the tags!

Rules: Talk about something you're working on of any kind.

🚦 green: what is it about, what excited you about it, what sparked the idea?

Since my only other project I'm actively working on is secret, I'm going to talk about my LOTR AU! For those of you who don't know, that stands for Lord of the Rings, a fantasy trilogy by JRR Tolkien. I've loved the trilogy since fifth grade, but what inspired this AU was a drabble prompt for the word "battle" in @thebrownstone Discord server back in August (which I'm going to have to tweak now that I'm making this a full trilogy)! One of my favorite parts of the movies is Legolas and Gimli's constant competitions in battle... And given RWRB firstprince book height, it was too perfect not to play with that idea more!

orange: slow down and share something from it: a photo, a few words, some more background info etc.

More background info it is- but if you want some words or ICYMI earlier, click here!

One of my favorite parts of writing this fic has been figuring out which character traits and characters will be used in the fic and their relationships in RWRB and how that can be translated to an LOTR AU. This is also the first time I've extensively written Pez, especially a section or two from Pez's POV, and it's been an absolute delight!

red: what is the roadblock currently? what is one thing that is a necessary evil in making it?

No current roadblocks, but I've kind of written around them so far... Which can't be the case once I get to the Two Towers and Return of the King, and I'm a little nervous, guys. As a rule, I'm not great at writing action/fight scenes... And LOTR has a lot of them, which definitely makes it qualify as a necessary evil. So we'll see how that goes- you all might be getting snippets of it here just so I can make sure I'm doing it right!

Six Sentence Sunday

Thanks for the tags, @monbons, @tailsbeth-writes, @thewholelemon, @rimeswithpurple, and @that-disabled-princess! I’m joining the party a bit earlier today. I hope everyone is doing well.

Skim and scan this introduction at your discretion, but I’ve honestly had a really terrible week. Got hit with three major personal losses suddenly, which left me feeling sad, obviously, and also really frozen. A lot of this week was crying in the shower, or crying in bed, or crying listening to Noah Kahan’s saddest songs. Not my finest moment(s).

I think I’m on the rebound, but things are not easy right now and they won’t be for a while. The state of the US isn’t helping matters, but I won’t even get into that 😅

All this to say, thank you all for fostering such a wonderful community. Chatting with y’all and reading and writing always cheers me up.

To that end, last night, I started writing a firstprince fic about hugs. Here’s seven sentences of that:

There’s an enticing platter of biscuits tucked into the back corner of the table. A place-card sits in the middle of the platter: VIP ONLY.

Henry scoffs and picks up a biscuit. It’s small and round with a dollop of marmalade in the centre. He whispers a spell under his breath and renders it invisible, then discretely takes a bite. “Very important person biscuits. Bloody ridiculous.”

All I have left to write is the ending, so this should be posted sometime today. Which of Noah Kahan's saddest songs do you think I've used for the title?

Re: snowbaz, with parent!Simon finished, next I'm either adding to hozier!snowbaz or teachers!snowbaz. If anyone has a preference and wants to combat my indecisiveness, feel free to cast your vote!

Tags and love under the cut.

After making it out of the maze, Alex, June, Nora, Liam, and Spencer navigate the landscape of a world they were robbed of a chance to grow up in, battling the virus that still runs rampant, questionable accomplices, and WCKD, who's still in hot pursuit of them; of the ever elusive cure. Torn between morality and freedom, Alex realizes that there are multiple definitions for both, and not everyone is in agreement. More love means more to lose, but Alex has never been averse to a little risk. The question isn't if he wants to leave a legacy or change the world, it's how far he's willing to go to make it out with the people he wants to share it with when they make it to the safe haven. Or. If.

(or, a maze runner au. sort of.)

Thanks for the tag @suseagull5914! This is a WIP that I was planning on getting out for @safe-smuttin but alas I didn't have time. Enjoy some fooling around:

Henry loves this part. The giddy energy, the swapped grins. Alex climbs on top and begins to devour Henry's skin. He licks Henry's collar bones, making careful work over every groove. His hips buck up into Alex, he can feel his bulge rubbing up against Alex’s. He runs his hand through Alex’s hair, tugging a little. Alex takes the hint, capturing Henry's lips. ‘I need you so much, baby.’ Henry gasps into the next kiss, his eyes feel prickly. His hands gather around Alex’s neck, his thumbs stroking the sensitive spot behind Alex’s ears. Alex starts to laugh, the air hot on Henry's face. ‘You asshole!’ Henry shrugs, blinking his glossy eyes. Alex pinches at Henry's waist, making him squirm underneath him. He slaps Alex's chest lightly. ‘Okay, okay. No more tomfoolery.’ Alex squints at him and shakes his head. ‘Tomfoolery… who are you?’ ‘Just a posh twit who has a soft spot for American boys who have eyelashes that should be registered as weapons.’

for @kiwiana-writes who, in his giant list of prompts for @fandomtrumpshate, had a hockey au listed, and i promptly wrote the most self-indulgent fic of all time. love youuuu

Expectation and preparation are not remotely the same thing. That’s the thought that flashes through Henry’s mind when his phone rings, Coach Chen displayed on the screen. Henry had been expecting the call ever since hearing that Westbrook was smashed into his own goal at the game against Milwaukee yesterday. But he was in no way prepared for hearing the words in the light of day. “You’re getting called up.” Or, a Time to Shine by Rachel Reid AU

WOW, so many people sharing so many wonderful words on Wednesday! Thanks @pippinoftheshire @tailsbeth-writes @cha-melodius @sherryvalli @14carrotghoul and @firenati0n for the tags then and @run-for-chamo-miles for the tag today! Happy Sunday, everyone!

A bit more from my LOTR AU...

The words made his blood boil. If it was so important that they get the Ring to Mordor, wouldn't it make sense that all the races trying to usurp the Enemy get to see that day?

He struggled to get to solid ground once more, but before he could make much progress, he felt hands covering his own, grasping them, then pulling him up.

Alex was too busy trying to help whoever his rescuer was to see their identity until he had helped hoist himself to solid ground again.

When he did, his jaw dropped. He had expected that Hunter would come crawling back to them, had anticipated that he would be the one to help Alex, with some kind of apology that wasn't necessarily heartfelt following Alex's return to something resembling solid footing.

Tagging everyone who tagged me Wednesday back for today, plus @blueeyedgrlwrites @anincompletelist @firenati0n @emmalostinwonderland @orchidscript @theprinceandagcd

@porcelainmortal @onthewaytosomewhere @myheartalivewrites @caterpills and @emmalostinwonderland with no pressure and open tag for whoever wants it!

sometimes you have to really get into a fandom you only gave a passing glance 4 years ago long after its calmed down and you've missed the boat

sometimes you gotta show up to a fandom 4 years late with Starbucks

for your health

📢The first story to emerge from my collab with the fabulous and talented @orchidscript, SparkleScript Do Emotional Damage, is now COMPLETE and safe to marathon!

by @orchidscript and @sparklepocalypse M | 47,460 words | Alex/Henry | movie and bookverse, smooshed

There’s a man in Henry’s bedroom. That, itself, isn’t noteworthy. He’s become rather proficient at smuggling men in and out of his room at Kensington Palace and his first-year flat at Oxford. It’s not even especially noteworthy that the man is quite arresting. For better or worse, Henry’s title and reputation tend to help him pull gorgeous men with somewhat astonishing frequency. This man is, of course, particularly gorgeous. He’s tall, with olive skin, dark hair, and a bone structure that would send the old masters into a frenzy of pigments, linseed oil, and canvas. But, perhaps, the most noteworthy thing is that the man in Henry’s bedroom is quickly and awkwardly wiping his eyes with the backs of his hands. That he seems just as surprised to see Henry as Henry is to see him.

Or, the handwavey, time-travelly, astral-projectiony, canon-smooshy AU nobody asked for, but we're giving it to you anyway.
