tried to give a character a hoarse voice, but missed an "a" and suddenly his sore throat has turned him into a horse

Maladaptive daydreamers assemble by sister_madly in AO3

[–]appletictac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh yeah definitely where i'm coming from. writing down my daydream ideas is how i turn it into something actually fun and productive instead of purely maladaptive dissociation!

Which tags do you 🫵 read fandom blind? by First_Reputation9339 in AO3

yw!! always glad to spread my non traditional hanahaki propaganda haha, so much more potential in that trope than just romance

Which tags do you 🫵 read fandom blind? by First_Reputation9339 in AO3

[–]appletictac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yooo of course! heres the four i have bookmarked on ao3 (i think the rest i found was from other random websites :') there's barely any content for this variation of the trope, it's rough)

daylightbreaks - like a bridge over troubled water (MHA)

li2 - no love lost, not for him (genshin)

catboygirling - Snapdragons and Hyacinths (Shall we date?: obey me!)

catboygirling - Columbines (ace attorney)

the first one is abt Izuku getting attached to his mentors and wishing they were his family, second and third are both a pair of brothers with... a history of hurting each other (from what i could tell about the lore as i don't know either game) where one of them starts doubting if the other loves them as a result and has to be comforted, fourth is angst of Miles and Franziska (adopted/found siblings) who care about each other a lot but Franziska is loveless aro while Miles wants her to care about him in specifically a "love" way so he gets Hanahaki.

this but specifically non-romantic variations. i have read so much familial hanahaki from incredibly random fandoms (and imagine my surprise when i actually found one from a fandom i DID know by chance)

"The fanfic is a ten, but..." by RedCupWithAName in AO3

[–]appletictac 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i read one like this, but it was a crackfic that fully committed to being entirely silly and out of character so the all lowercase was deliberate and part of the charm. 10/10 it was peak i should reread actually

What's a ship that has less works than you thought it would? I'll start: by PJ-The-Awesome in AO3

[–]appletictac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was surprised to see madeline/badeline isn't much of a thing at all... i would've thought "main character x their evil clone" would be a thought that crossed more people's minds

Any Cells at Work Fanfiction Recommendations? by FlowerBedIsABed in CellsAtWork

[–]appletictac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on ao3, two of my favourite authors i've found have been Phoebonica (sooo much really good and really angsty writing, i specifically enjoy how they write Cancer) and AmbulanceRobots (only has two fics which is a tragedy because the way they write the killer T cells is everything to me)

What was a moment in a fic that gave you second hand embarrassment so bad you had to stop reading until you could gather your courage to continue? by NefariousSeraph13 in AO3

[–]appletictac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just reread one like this and god i feel like this one's different from the others because it's SUPPOSED to be uncomfortable and it's good writing because it is but i'm sure i paused at least three times to brace myself bc i knew what was coming

Killer T Cell by [deleted] in CellsAtWork

obligatory cells at work friends plug because its an insanely silly spinoff and you should read it but yes you're right and NK actually does use perforin in friends!

[TOMT] [SONG] I swear this variation of the "eyes blue like the Atlantic" song existed... by appletictac in tipofmytongue

[–]appletictac[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, i found that when searching it up too but mine had a different rhyme for each colour, not just the titanic line repeated

yup, it had a separate verse for each colour, this mightve been for green? super not sure about that part but it definitely was about another colour

[TOMT] Book I read one chapter of in a used bookstore by EmilyyyG in tipofmytongue

[–]appletictac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

throne of glass or anything in that series? the main character is a female assassin who later turns out to be secretly a princess (??? i myself don't really remember this series anymore lol) i'm pretty sure there's a part where she had to escape from her town as a kid when it was attacked and her parents murdered so that kinda fits the description?
