introducing the band...

idk what to write on this thing.

hi it's me, my name is tukru, i'm old (born in the early 1980s) and i draw dumb shit and sometimes i also write. mostly it's steddie, but i'm a multishipper and i’m trying to diversify the brainrot so other things will make appearances, such as stommy, stommie, buckingham, ronance, jargyle and others. idk, i'm not clairvoyant.

a lot of my drawings and writings are 'not safe for work', they are behind the beaded curtain in the adult section at the back of Family Video so pls don't follow etc if you're under 18, thank you v much. however i'm lazy and not your fucking mum so i ain't checking up on you. (though it's not like i can actually post most of the truly nsfw stuff i draw here these days. i remember the good old tumblr days though so i'm extra salty about it.)

i have a rebloggin' tumblr over at @hawkinspleather cos i thought i’d better have some place that’s just my shit, like an archive.

the inbox is open ~ ask me anything* *within reason, don't be a dick or i will take anon privileges away from everyone.

i already need to update this art cos i got a haircut and i kinda hate it.

more peeping jon? y'all have a one track mind. but fine ok, here's another paragraph i rewrote:

make me write!

*shakes fist* i haven't opened the peeping jon doc in such a long time, and now that i have, i've realised i need to rewrite the whole thing cos it's in past tense and i've gone off that.

so here's a whole ass paragraph from rewrite:

make me write!

@hbyrde36 tagged me in a game of wip weekend, maybe it’ll motivate me to do the thing!

Rules: Send me an emoji in an ask, and I'll write & share 3 sentences for that WIP!

the wips

🍹 King of Wishful Thinking (chapter two)

my stommy bang fic. it’s so close to done i can almost taste it. and i’m running out of time here.

💀 the dead mum zine

ok so this is not fanfic but i really want to finish this in time for glasgow zine fest which is in early july. it’s already over 20k, but i’m only about half way in the timeline sense. i’ve been working on this bitch for five years.

📹 peeping jon

the one where jonathan accidentally watches a steddie sex tape (this one’s been hibernating due to other things having priority/deadlines)

📼 The 50 Shades of Plaid in Steve Harrington’s Bedroom

the sequel to An Ode to Eddie Munson’s Stained Mattress. i want to finish this this year cos i started this fic / series in 2022 ffs. movie night sleepover at steve’s, the classic premise for the 66666th time. needs extensive rewrites cos a) it doesn’t work as is and b) i decided to change the tense to present.

i'm a coward so i shan't tag anyone because i don't want to be a bother ):

King of Wishful Thinking

Written by hawkinsleather Rating: Explicit Word Count: 8,369 so far

Summary: Tommy Hagan walks into a gay bar in a new city. He’s in his 40s and recently divorced. He’s sipping on a fruity cocktail at the bar, contemplating his life when the bartender gives him a drink he didn’t order and says it’s from the gentleman at the other end of the bar. It’s a familiar face. It’s Steve fucking Harrington, his childhood best friend and.. first crush. Steve is clearly comfortable in this space in a way Tommy can only dream of. They catch up, share a drink, the dance floor, and more.

2024 was a year of bangs (every bang everywhere all at once) so yes i took part in WIP Big Bang as an artist because i saw an unclaimed wayne munson/mr clarke fic and then i couldn’t stop thinking about it and the mods were very flexible with the deadline so i decided it was doable so i did.
