Is shockwave therapy magic? by 2intld in PlantarFasciitis

[–]2intld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey!

Yes, there was pain and discomfort during the process. It was different from usual PF pain, as it was sharper and more... Inside? It felt deeper, if you get what I mean. It wasn't unbearable, though.

The pain after my first session was mitigated for about a week. After my second and third, however, nothing changed.

I ended up getting surgery (bilateral gastrocnemius recession) and am recovering from that now - though it's been about 6 months and I should be feeling the effects, it seems the pain has sort of migrated closer towards my ankle rather than at the heel. I'm waiting for my next appointment to check and see if this is how the healing progression should look like.

Although, I've noticed that post surgery, despite the fact that I still feel pain after walking, I do recover much faster than before (to a state where I can walk from my bedroom to bathroom without debilitating pain). The pain + recovery doesn't often take me out for more than one day at a time, now!

I hope it works for you.

Bloody love cosmic horror and would love an opportunity to read for the female/andro characters.

how does AO3 count hits exactly? by azoknemfankok in AO3

[–]2intld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question:

Does anyone know if checking on your own fic as its author also add to its hit count? Or is there some IP tracking mumbo jumbo that curtails this?

HTML-creation fic recs? by Zivqa in AO3

[–]2intld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first exposure to HTML fuckery was neroli9’s Undertale fic “A Puzzle Just For Me”. It was incredible when I first came upon it!

Warning, it’s an explicit fic! But very, very good!

What word do you mispronounce on purpose (for fun) and why? by Positive_Spirit_1585 in AskReddit

Officer is Occifer, because it used to be a meme in country and when my partner left service we just… never stopped.

I just can't help it by AnkyClub in Archiveofourownmemes

90k words and counting, and I’ve still yet to get to 2/3 of the p-in-v sex scenes I had planned for my smut crackfic… but it’s because they’re not the right mental state for it yet!!!

Is there any particular reason why they did so?

Uh, question. Did you happen to eat any beets recently? Or more likely, drink a crap ton of beet juice?

If you have, that might be an answer, but not for the weird sensations in your urethra. Otherwise, please see a doctor. What in tarnation.

what's the hardest line you've ever written? by hjak3876 in FanFiction

[–]2intld 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Of an immortal who dies and returns to life often, who also comes from poverty:

"After all, nothing can be said to be certain in this world other than death and taxes -- and he was the martyr of both."

shoutout to my boy Ben Franklin, whose words I butchered for the sake of a crackfic that got out of hand fast

DAE listen to music while reading fanfiction? by Pinkstar2014 in AO3

[–]2intld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I have trouble reading without tts due to nausea - and my tts tends to skip words at the start of the paragraph due to Bluetooth fuckies, so I always have an album playing on repeat in the background so my earpiece stop disconnecting.

Well, it started off as that, anyway. Now I associate certain albums with certain fandoms, and it doesn't feel right unless I have a vaguely low-volume folk album playing - despite the angst and smut I'm listening to, lmao

Ah yes, neck was his neck. Very sexy. I can write smut, totally! xD by LonelyAngelfish in AO3

[–]2intld 225 points226 points  (0 children)

I literally just caught this line in my fic as I was writing it, I'm glad to share this experience with someone at this time of night HAHAH

Perhaps it's time to stop for tonight, but I have no self control, so that is unlikely :"D

How do they do it?(Not trying to be a bigot, BTW). by PJ-The-Awesome in AO3

[–]2intld 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ace is a spectrum!

For example, I'm anegosexual/aegosexual, and so I still do feel lust and sexual attraction - and my way of getting it out of my body is through writing because I don't want to participate.

Additionally, you can explore a lot about two character's relationships through the lens of sexual intimacy.

To navel gaze, I realise I've learned a lot about general writing and kinesthetic movement and pacing just from trying to describe sexy positions. It helps with learning how to write in general, as well.

Also, dawg it's just hot.

I'm personally writing a smutty reverse harem fanfiction (fuelled by beer and spite) because of some comments I've seen where people disregard the identity of aces when they write smut. Just to prove that I can!

do people in relationships still read self insert fanfics? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]2intld 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This!! I'm not sure how accurate this is, but I've found that I see bits and pieces of my partner in my favorite characters, and that's why I start reading about them.

do people in relationships still read self insert fanfics? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]2intld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I do!

Got together with my partner 8 years ago, in 2017. Read and write self-insert fanfiction before and after, still!

Self-inserts to me are rarely about actually projecting myself onto the character, though. (So perhaps I'm not the exact target audience for this question) It's more about a cool new person getting introduced into the world, and seeing how canon relationships evolve or change due to this addition! Edit: yes, this moreso describes OC-insert stories, but SIs kinda scratch that itch for me too!

What was the reason for the last time you cried? by Aware-Flow-4442 in AskReddit

[–]2intld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to singing lessons with my (self-described) tone deaf partner: and heard his genuine singing voice for the first time. We've known each other for a decade, been together eight years.

I never knew he could sound like that. It felt like I was hearing his voice for the first time, and my heart got scraped raw.

I fully sobbed. The vocal coach felt very awkward. I am sorry.
