fanfic writers are so fucking awesome man. they write novel length fics that are sometimes even better than some published bestselling books written by professional writers. like fanfic writers are professional writers to me and they gift us their masterpieces for free. they give us something we can look forward to after a long day. something from which we can seek comfort when life is hard. something that can be our own little getaway. in a world of capitalism, despite everything, they give us all of these for free. like holy fuck. shout out to every fanfic writer. I wish all fanfic writers a very ‘I love you with all my heart and soul. I thank you from the bottom of my heart’
As a fanfic writer, I'm touched by your words. Thank you so much.

Small fantasy worldbuilding elements you might want to think about:
- A currency that isn’t gold-standard/having gold be as valuable as tin
- A currency that runs entirely on a perishable resource, like cocoa beans
- A clock that isn’t 24-hours
- More or less than four seasons/seasons other than the ones we know
- Fantastical weather patterns like irregular cloud formations, iridescent rain
- Multiple moons/no moon
- Planetary rings
- A northern lights effect, but near the equator
- Roads that aren’t brown or grey/black, like San Juan’s blue bricks
- Jewelry beyond precious gems and metals
- Marriage signifiers other than wedding bands
- The husband taking the wife's name / newlyweds inventing a new surname upon marriage
- No concept of virginity or bastardry
- More than 2 genders/no concept of gender
- Monotheism, but not creationism
- Gods that don’t look like people
- Domesticated pets that aren’t re-skinned dogs and cats
- Some normalized supernatural element that has nothing to do with the plot
- Magical communication that isn’t Fantasy Zoom
- “Books” that aren’t bound or scrolls
- A nonverbal means of communicating, like sign language
- A race of people who are obligate carnivores/ vegetarians/ vegans/ pescatarians (not religious, biological imperative)
I’ve done about half of these myself in one WIP or another and a little detail here or there goes a long way in reminding the audience that this isn’t Kansas anymore.

Making out with svt
warnings: descriptions; headcanons; gn (mostly) reader self insert; you might find it a little kinky at some point;
pairings: svt x gn reader
gender/aus: fluff; slightly suggestive;
Scoups
The whole night, Seungcheol tried to focus on dinner, the conversation, and the sophisticated atmosphere of the restaurant. But it was impossible. From the moment you appeared in front of him, wearing that outfit that hugged your body in a way that seemed tailor-made to tease him, nothing else mattered. His dark gaze kept falling on you every second, his jaw clenching every time you moved in a way that made it impossible to ignore the effect you had on him.

Any ideas for a non stoic but still very defiant whumpee?
Like, most things about how defiant whumpees would act is about stoic ones
Sure! Deviancy comes in many forms!
Comic relief Whumpee
- Whumpee who deals with everything by using humor. So here they do to. They won't answer Whumper's questions, they just sarcastically answer each time.
- Or Whumper tries to break them, but Whumpee refuses to give in. All the do is just snap back. "If I were you, I'd watch my mouth right about now." - "If you were me, I'd be ugly."
- They just keep insulting and annoying Whumper.
- They keep singing an annoying tune that pisses Whumper off.
- They refuse to break, to show pain. They won't stop smiling, joking. If they stop, they've broken. And they won't. break.
Defiant Whumpee who won't stop fighting
- They're not stoic; they cry and scream and maybe even beg. But they won't stop fighting.
- Whumper gets too close? They get hit.
- Watch out for their teeth, they bite.
- Whumper leaves the room and they instantly try to escape.
- They get caught in an escape attempt and dragged back, but they just try again the next day.
- They plan, pretending to be weak and then jumping up, wrapping their chain around Whumper's throat.
- They curl up when Whumper leaves, sobbing in pain and barely holding on. But they pull themselves together, and keep fighting the next day.
Whumpee who is secretly defiant
- Maybe they work for Whumper. They're just another henchmen, not tough, not stoic and battle hardened like some other workers. They appear scared and stay in the back.
- But they are working against Whumper. They give information to the enemy, the sabotage missions.
- They seem 'weak' and 'mess up' things, and Whumper punishes them each time. But they'll do it again. Because it was punishment, or killing those innocent people.
Whumpee who won't cooperate
- Whumpee knows there is no way out, knows Whumper will hurt them, but they won't break.
- They cry and scream and beg, but they won't give Whumper what they want (information?)
- They're not strong, they can't lock their emotions away and pretend to be fine. But they just won't do what Whumper says, no matter what.

Side Note To Fan Fic Authors
Here’s the thing.
I read a lot of scripts. A lot. From professionals to aspiring writers to complete newbies. Features and pilots. Specs and treatments.
And 8 times out of 10 the fan fic that I’ve read over the last, oh, 15 years is leagues better than this stuff. It’s more inspired. It’s more compelling. It’s genre bending and creative and heartfelt. It’s well-paced and intense and funny and sexy and meaningful. It’s smart and thoughtful and good. It’s novel-quality. Better than, sometimes.
Rare is the script I don’t want to put down, but how often have we stayed up until 3am to get to the last chapter of a 100k fic? And it’s not even a fan fic author’s day job. This is what they do on the side. In their spare time. For free.
So my point is, fan fic authors, you’re good. You’re good writers and great storytellers. I know it doesn’t always feel like it, especially if you’re one of the authors who’s not a BNF and doesn’t get the notes/hits that a few do. And because some people still view fic as “not real writing.” You guys know the shit that gets made into movies. You’re better than that. So be better than that. If writing is what you think want to do, then just know you’re already doing it. You’ve already started.
And you’re more talented than you might think.
tysm i needed that 😭

Pushed to the limits
- Character vomiting from dehydration or lack of food—for mundane reasons or not. Maybe they’ve just been too busy running around that day to drink or eat much, and the nausea hits them like a truck. Or maybe they’re in a much worse situation. Stranded, or away from home, injured and unable to get help, vomiting from dehydration after they exert themselves even a little.
- Character pushed to the brink of the sheer pain they can handle. Maybe they have a high pain tolerance, and this is so blinding that they roll over and puke before being forced to carry on. Maybe they don’t have such a high pain tolerance—more average—and they say, shaky and sweaty, “I think I’m about to puke.”
- Character puking from a fight, punched in the guts one more time then they can handle.
- Iron stomach, but pushed past a limit they confidently thought they didn’t have.
- Pushed past a medical limit—too much anesthetic, and they wake up vomiting. Swallowing too much blood from a nosebleed, or an injury much worse. Hit way too hard on the head. Given too much of a drug.
Limits are fun.

💎🐈⬛When did we normalize danger?
Title from SOS (SEVENTEEN)
Summary: “Hey, Wonwoo-yah”, Seungcheol greeted happily, “how is your photoshoot going?” “Hyung? Can you come and get me?”, Wonwoo whispered, feeling a bit choked up all of a sudden.
CW: emeto, medical issues with the eyes
Whumpee/Sickie: Wonwoo
Caretaker(s): S.Coups/Seungcheol + Jeonghan
(It’s okay)
“Okay, nearly done”, the stylist noona announced, fixing a few strands of Wonwoo’s hair before stepping back to inspect her work. “I think I outdid myself.”

Hello honeeey.
Can i request something? That's being going in my mind and i thought you be perfect for this... i wanted to ask for a first time with Seungcheol... like no the first time ever but the first time with him.
Like new relationship, a lot of previous teasing but he has being waiting for you to make the first step and stuff.
Pleaseeeee, i love your work, kisseeees💗
first time having sex with seungcheol in a new relationship
WARNINGS: smut, new established relationship, fingering, penetrative sex, hair pull
a/n: hiii my dear!! thank you for the request, I hope you like it <333 sorr ab how late is this going, but I can use this excuse for a chirstmas gift....? 🥺 love youuu!!!
he knows he’s about to ruin you but doesn’t feel the need to announce it.
you’ve both been circling around this moment for weeks—every touch lingering longer than it should, every kiss dipping into field that leaves you squirming. now you’re here, and he’s leaning over you with that smug, lopsided grin, looking like he’s been waiting for this exact second his entire life.
“been thinkin’ about this,” he mutters, lips brushing your jaw, his hands already sliding under your shirt. and yeaaaah, maybe you’ve been thinking about it too, but you’re not about to stroke his ego like that.
his mouth is warm, soft, leaving a trail down your neck that makes your toes curl. but it’s his hands... that really mess with your head. they’re big and rough, and its so good! its like he plays a 3 hour long documentary about womens anatomy in his head, to make it all perfect. and you’re not even sure if it’s intentional at first, the way his thumb brushes your ribs before dragging along your waistline is making you loose your cool.
“you good?”
“mhmm..”
