Sawamura Daichi you look like a squirrel

As the self proclaimed biggest fan of Astrophilia (yes I am do not take this away from me Astrophilia is the bomb and deserves all the love in the world) I would like to spiritually reblog this a hundred times and just say that I am not even 30% of the way through Stardust but I. I am shook. I resonate. I am existing on a higher plane. I am in space with these guys (hopefully not for long). I am l i t e r a l l y vibrating in excitement because I have loved Astrophilia 163 days and I will for the rest of my life and this. This is. Yes. Yes. Yes.

Anyways this has been a PSA to read Stardust and Astrophilia because they slap so hard I got transported to their future and lived through this with them. I’m not sure if they survive I didn’t even read the tags. I think they do. They better.

Some months ago I wrote and posted "Astrophilia," a fic that, while not my most popular, inspired a unique emotion in my readers in which multiple people started headcanoning a future in which everything was okay, arguing against the finality of the Captains' fate... And I figured, you know, if these strangers felt so strongly that this was not how this story would end, well... Their boyfriends left behind on earth certainly wouldnt have let it be, either.

Dedicated to everyone who commented telling me they hoped there would be a way to get them home in the future: "Stardust."

happy belated birthday aran!! the goat of goats

Fic Writer Review

Many thanks to @kings-highway for the tag! I haven't done one of these in a hot sec :P

More under the cut:

"How many works do you have on ao3?"

Well. In total, the number is 56. Five are from the account that shall not be named and 51 are from my main one. I only have 16 Haikyuu works but hey, I started like five months ago and that's already pretty good in my standards.

"Your top 5 stories by kudos/likes?"

Oof. I've been writing for marvel for ages but the top spot is a Haikyuu fic.

a chemical change in the brain- 271 kudos

this was my second Haikyuu fic on my main and the reception to it was so lovely and it really made me want to continue writing for this fandom because everyone was so so sweet

2. The World We Knew (Over and Over)- 261 kudos

one of my favourite ones that I've written and the longest running project I've ever attempted to write and it took such a ridiculous amount of time like tell me how I managed to write 2k+ chapters PER DAY while going to school and replying to all the comments and not wanting to give up like wow did this plotline have a grip on me

3. 7 Minutes In Heaven- 242 kudos

aha the... the fic that made me contemplate never making out with anyone ever seriously and I really think I might just... never do it because the way I described their tongues touching each other... shudders and shivers down my spine... it was an absolute nightmare to write but everyone was really nice and I got a new friend out of it so

4. pretty- 221 kudos

my one and only kuroken centric fic and it's like my third haikyuu fic ever and maybe it's just because I posted them in the summer but they were up there pretty quick actually but I don't have much to say about this one lol

5. "Tell me where it hurts."- 202 kudos

ahhhh the fic that started it all. literally the fic that made me begin my sunglasses series that I've heard praised so much and made me fall in love with writing all over again

"Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?"

Yes! Because I have no life and I love talking to people. Also I didn't used to but once I started writing more consistently, I also started replying more consistently. Mostly for sunglasses and the other stories. It really helped that I had returning commenters lol.

"What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?"

Uhhhhhhh. Ummmm. I guess it would have to be Out of Time or The Next Big Thing because those are both MCD, but both aren't angst angst I don't think? Out of Time's ending is technically a happy flashback and The Next Big Thing is a canon death but from the perspective of different characters after being twisted by my au... I guess it's up to the readers lol. I don't usually write angst but (shameless advertising) I'm writing this Iwaoi fic where some death happens and that counts as angst, right?

"What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?"

Shit y'all, all of my fics have happy endings (sans the MCDs)(one is an AU of an AU that I wrote to appease a fan and the other one gets brought back to life and gets together with his crush so like)... I don't know. My kagehina maybe. 7MIH. Take your pick. All of my Haikyuu fics have happy endings I think. My marvel stuff is a little iffy but I wouldn't read them anyway just for quality reasons.

"Do you write crossovers?"

Uhhhhhh... (checks my fandoms) no. Unfortunately, my brain doens't like to imagine cross-media (aka novel to tv series for example) crossovers and the ones that I could cross over already have too much going on (marvel). And generally... I don't really wanna.

"Have you ever received hate on a fic?"

Not that I know of. I've had spam comments and 'pls continue' comments but everyone in my works are pretty well-behaved and none of the fandoms I write for are active enough to be angry.

"Do you write smut? If so, what kind?"

... Looks away in minor...

................. yeah but just to be funny................... so crack... i guess.................

"Have you ever had a fic stolen?"

I've seen my stuff on random fic platforms but idk I don't care. Attention is attention and any publicity is good publicity or whatever.

"Have you ever had a fic translated?"

Nope but I've gotten comments in different languages once or twice that I had to put into google translate so I can respond exactly the same way as I do every single time!

"Have you ever co-written a fic before?"

Yes! One with my dear friend Anna a long time ago that we just kinda abandoned that I actually almost forgot about. And I'm listed as a co-creator on altruist but that's only cause I like formatting and I get a rush when I'm posting things.

"What’s your all-time favourite ship?"

Uhhhhhhh... daisuga...? They're the safest option to read usually and I'm more into them than most of the other ships I read (sorry to everyone who knows me from marvel but I don't read much from there and I haven't read much ushiten because I haven't been reading anything lately anyway)

"What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?"

Either the Funny Thing About Hope or Ushijima Wakatoshi Is Not Invincible. Planning both of those were so fun but my god I have not been able to get back into writing them. And also my aos rewrite but at least that one has a nice clean ending. Y'all can pretend that Wonderful World doesn't exist.

"What are your writing strengths?"

I talk a lot about nothing! But formatting, mostly.

"What are your writing weaknesses?"

I'd make a self-deprecating joke and say everything but I wanna be honest and say that it's probably anything physical whether it be the kissy-kissies or a fight scene. And volleyball matches, can't forget those.

"What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?"

I come from a writing background of Harry Potter fanfic so usually italics is fine for me. When I was younger and writing for Marvel (which was primarily Natasha Romanoff, featuring her fluency in multiple languages), I usually used italics and the script that google translate gave me, not the romanized version. Now that I'm older and having written for Haikyuu, I think it depends on who's saying it/ the perspective it's in. If I was writing in Peter Parker's pov and Natasha Romanoff said something in Russian, I wouldn't say what she said. I'd just say 'she muttered something in russian' or something like that. People can do what they want though and unless it's an important plot device I don't really care how I or anyone does it.

"What’s a fandom/ship you haven’t written for yet but want to?"

I was actually talking about this with a new friend of mine today! I want to write for Kyouhaba someday. They're so cute and I haven't been able to because I've been on a block and I gave my one idea for them to Iwaoi so. Yeah.

"What’s your favourite fic you’ve written?"

I don't remember writing most of my fics. Or any of them. Even as I check the list, I draw blanks. Whose fics are these? Not mine. I've never seen these fics ever in my life.

That being said, I really liked writing Dictionary, even if it's one of the darker things I've written. I also really liked writing to build a home because 1) that was a gift to my darling friend Val and 2) it was so cute and fluffy and daisuga and just asdfghjkdhsh

That also being said, I have high hopes for this iwaoi fic so maybe if I end up writing and finishing it, maybe it'll be my actual favourite lol

Thanks for the tag, and the next people I'm roping into this are: @bubbletealife, @sleepyricee, and internet wine aunt @gammacousin (sorry for the random tag lol)

I have no clue I haven’t written it yet 😭 but yes that’s a good idea that works

First chapter of a new little fic is up. Regular person AU? I guess? Philinda and philindaisy stuffs. Later on also dousy.

I just finished my bio assignment and now you all shall be subjected to its utter bullshittery in all of its glory.

Hello!

I also had a question for you about you’re MayDaisy Universe, about pre-canon (could also be applicable during canon), if you’re be willing to answer.

What happens when May has nightmares? Does she go to Skye?

If not, can Skye tell?

Hi Anon! Top of the morning to you!

(I just woke up)

When May has nightmares, it’s not obvious or loud. She doesn’t thrash or scream or bolt up drenched in sweat. She’ll sleep through the whole thing and just wake like she usually does, because her nightmares are calm, and she knows that she’s trapped. She knows that she can’t escape the nightmare, so she simply waits them out.

She doesn’t go to Skye. However, Skye learns to find her. In the morning after, Skye knows. Even if May doesn’t tell her (which she usually doesn’t), Skye knows. When Skye gets older, when she’s Daisy, they don’t find each other in their bunks. But they do find each other in the kitchen. After Coulson dies, they’re there almost every night. They like to make his famous hot chocolate together, even if they don’t get it quite right.

They like to find solace with one another. That never changes.

ANOTHER DAY ANOTHER SKIPPED CHAPTER BUT I PROMISE I'LL MAKE IT UP TO YALL SOMEDAY
