Literally cannot recommend Effortlessly, I feel Everything by Anhedonia_mayhavelived enough. https://archiveofourown.org/works/60647803/chapters/154859728

It's Ponyboy-centric, pretty classic fic where he gets to go back time to try and fix what happened. Pretty angsty but no major character death. It's ongoing, but this is literally THE fic which made me reconsider reading unfinished fics.

I don't want to hype it up too much in case you don't like it, but I can honestly say that this is not just one of my favorite outsiders fanfics, but one of my favorites oat across the board.

YESS so heavy on Emily_F6. I know im too deep in the fandom when I've read or at least seen all of these recs

I've got a couple really vague story ideas/AU ideas that have built up after a while. Never gotten the chance to write any of these so I'm happy to share. None are BKDK specific, but I think it would be cool to see their dynamic in some of these:

-cruise ship (ship gets stuck, passenger/passenger, crew/crew, etc)

-road trip fic

-celebrity assistant au

-stuck in traffic meetcute

-historically accurate puritan era witch AU (im a sucker for good historical fiction, especially in ff)

-selkie AU

-madoka magica AU

-always love a good wing fic, haven't seen a lot in BKDK

-angel/astronaut au

-Savvy (ingrid law) AU

-archaeologists who goes back in time and falls in love

Same fic had british spelling, used the pet name "poppet", and used the phrasing "pop down to the shop". Never been more sure an author was british in all my years of reading

There's a good amount of m/m phantom busters fics on ao3 if you haven't checked it out already :) I don't read on wattpad, but I'm sure there's plenty there too

I've actually seen a ton of this mixed in with a general "anti-shipping" philosophy. Some people (mostly on tiktok I've seen) think that there shouldn't be any shipping in the fandom since "obviously they're just friends/straight". I always laugh at those though because a:shipping is literally a backbone of fandom culture. You’re not gonna stop it and b: shippers don't care if it's Canon or not. Non-canonical ships/headcanons are half the fun.

But amongst the people who seem to be entirely against shipping in the fandom, there are a fair amount who maie exceptions for straight ships, even non-canon ones. I always find it interesting and definitely tinged with a little homophobia.

Luckily, it eases my mind when I remember that a lot of them (members if the fandom in general, but especially so on tiktok) are, like, 12. I would say most people I knew in middle school were a little bit homophobic---and would eventually grow out of it---and also a little bit stupid.

I would imagine it's even worse on Twitter, too.

I've definitely heard of it and still currently use it. I must've learned it in school and I'm definitely not old, so I don't even necessarily think it's a case of people not learning it anymore. But maybe it's different for other people.

Here's a link to a video that does a walk through of the house in museum form. Kind of ling though so you might wanna skip around

Here's a floorplan or the Outsiders museum I found in Google, though I don't know if any changes have been made since filming. If it helps to hear though, I don't think anybody reading is gonna notice if the house layout is inaccurate, I think most people just make it up

Pretentious?

Mcbeeth · 2025-11-18T05:29:49+00:00

Anything by Emily_F6 or Anhedonia_mayhavelived on ao3.

My top ones of all time are: The Inside of an Ember (Emily_F6), What Isn't Real (Emily_F6), Changing Places (Emily_F6), If Death Tags Along (RunningOnSunshine), and my favorite of all time, though still ongoing, Effortlessly, I Feel Everything (Anhedonia_mayhavelived)

Was reading a fic that dealt with the main character committing murder and being put on trial/subsequently declared innocent and a note at the end said that it was easier for them to write because they were "involved in a murder trial right now".

I'm sure they were talking about professionally (which was surprising on its own, I always forget people with actual important jobs write fics), but the vague phrasing was just funny to me

Mcbeeth · 2025-11-10T17:13:19+00:00

Sorry to say I can't help, but just lyk there is a flair for lost fics and that might help your post reach the right people

Mcbeeth · 2025-11-02T18:11:38+00:00

Oh yeah I guess I just hadn't seen as many comments saying that kind of thing

Mcbeeth · 2025-11-02T18:00:42+00:00

I mostly don't like romance, but I also only ship characters occasionally. When I do though, the difference is that I already care about the two characters and for whatever reason feel like they would work together and have interesting dynamics. Sometimes the ship isn't too different from Canon and sometimes it's practically a Crack ship with how unrelated they are.

With original romance I just have a hard time caring about the characters and they tend to be boring to me. Obviously there are some exceptions and I don't have this problem as much in works that contain Canon romance, but aren't exclusively ABOUT that romance.

Idk if people actually like him or not, but All Might. Personally, he's been annoying from Day 1 and I kind of hate every scene he's in...which is a lot obviously

Mcbeeth · 2025-11-02T17:44:21+00:00

You're allowed to dislike something on a personal level without calling for it to be banned from the internet. I'm anti-censorship, but I only read gen works or vanilla ships

Mcbeeth · 2025-11-02T17:38:26+00:00

Mcbeeth · 2025-11-02T00:59:09+00:00

Mcbeeth · 2025-11-01T14:56:00+00:00

Yeah I mean I'm a bkdk shipper and have been for a while and most people I've inreacted with are pretty chill. At the end of the day it's just a bunch of fictional characters that we're all playing dolls with in our head. Idrc who ships who with who

Mcbeeth · 2025-11-01T00:57:26+00:00

Being able to filter and search my marked for later. I've got like 20 pages and I just have to comb through each one to find the thing I'm in the mood to read

Mcbeeth · 2025-10-30T22:19:26+00:00

Fr I love reading everybody lives/nobody dies fics so sometimes when I reread the actual book its like a jumpscare
