HEHEHEHE HI ROOP. Thank you for asking about these babies. OKAY. SO.
2. 5+1 fake frat boy Alex
— is basically the five times all signs point to Alex's reputation of being a frat boy, and the one time Henry finds out the truth behind it himself. (The truth being that he's just really an animal shelter volunteer who obtains all kinds of possible scratches and minor injuries from animal-related activities. LMAO.) It's mostly light-hearted and meme-ish. Here's a snippet instead since I've been sharing a bunch of this already.
The second time Alex's bad boy reputation is brought up, it’s when he makes his way through the cafeteria door with a number of bandages on one side of his face. Donning them like they were little scars of triumph.
Now, Henry is only about twenty percent convinced Alex is actually some mafia/biker gang/fraternity member — he's still adamant on not falling victim to everyone else's opinions about Alex's true nature, lest Alex is actually just a gravely misunderstood individual who actually has a heart of gold beneath his varsity jackets that always wrap around his figure.
3. ATLA AU
— As the working title¿ states, YES I MEAN Avatar: The Last Airbender. I'll give you some of the details about it since it follows the show's progression, which I know YOU'RE already familiar with a Good Amount. It will be multi-chaptered so I don't have an estimate on when I'll ever finish this yet, just that it exists (partially) as of now.
Characters:
Aang - Alex Katara - Henry Sokka - Bea Toph - Nora Zuko - Liam Appa - David Ty Lee - Pez June - non-bender
Parts I've written for Book One so far:
The Southern Air Temple Kiyoshi Island Fortune Teller Waterbending Master The Claremont-Diazes in the Iceberg Fire Nation Dispatch
ANYWAY. Yes. I don't know what to put here but thank you again ILY. 🫶
WIP Wednesday Word Search!
Thanks for the tag in this one, babies. @read-and-write- @firenati0n @songliili @kiwiana-writes @rockyroadkylers @gayrootvegetable and @hgejfmw-hgejhsf! 💗 Also: appreciation post for my friends who endlessly tag me in these games/challenges even though I'm not the most active and consistent person on this platform. I love you all.
RULES: use this generator to generate three random words (or however many you'd like to do!) and share the lines where they show up in your WIPs!
The words I got were acquaintance, monk, and challenge.
acquaintance - Exes to What? AU
There’s a bunch of classmates, celebrities, Nora posting a photo dump about their weekly Austen-binge with June popping in every so often in the slides. Pez in another outfit that never fails to fill Alex with awe; they’re the most stylish person he probably knows, and that’s saying something with his revolving door of acquaintances and friends. Ellen with her recent campaign publicity pictures. His dad doesn’t have instagram, but every now and then Oscar’s face shows up on news outlets as the current-seating senator of California. And then, unmistakably enough to Alex’s eyes, there’s also Henry.
monk - ATLA AU
Alex was already in the Avatar State, and finally looking around the room — littered with Fire Nation army uniforms and the remains of a monk who clearly meant something to Alex and June — it's not hard to understand why.
challenge - fake fratboy!Alex who's actually just an animal shelter volunteer AU
So Henry doesn't ask Alex where he goes or why he has new cuts on his hands or what he gets up to whenever he's not in school — only looks at him as if all the burning questions he wants to send Alex's way was his newfound telepathic skill. Does so in the next few days because he can't just let go of things like that, and ultimately only stops when Alex finally shoots back a quizzical look at him. He doesn't look angry, per se, but the littlest hint of a challenge does start resting on his eyebrows whenever he spares Henry a glance.
I combined both games so I'm not sure who to tag that hasn't done it yet but if you already did, take this as a round two I guess the word search is FUN. @blairwaldcrf @later-2-dae @dragonflylady77 @leojfitz @14carrotghoul @matherines @44whispers @movetoheavens @mudbloodpotter05 @happiness-of-the-pursuit @inexplicablymine @user-anakin @littlemisskittentoes
Six Sentences Sunday!
Tagged by @kiwiana-writes, @happiness-of-the-pursuit, and everyone else with the tag-back from my tag-then. (LOL.)
Here are six sentences (lines?) from my ongoing Exes to What? fic that I have already shared in the server, but wanted to put it here as well anyway.
henryfox: I’m sorry, I can't tell whether I've made you up or if this is actually real. Letting out a snort, Alex sits up against the headboard and briefly ruffles his hair before he opens his phone to the camera. Giving it a grin and sending it over to Henry before he can stare at it long enough and decide to start a whole photoshoot. theagcd: [photo] theagcd: ill let u be the judge of that henryfox: Real, then.
Tagging back MJ and Rhys above, but also @read-and-write-, @littlemisskittentoes, @14carrotghoul, @44whispers, @blairwaldcrf, @clottedcreamfudge, @inexplicablymine, @affectionatelyrs, @rockyroadkylers, @later-2-dae, @matherines, @hgejfmw-hgejhsf! (open tag to everyone too!) Because this is where I'm reading my share of fanfic for now, while I haven't gotten the time to go binge read again.
There's a sigh of reverie for each thought of her in mind. A silent form of worship, and a quiet prayer, all dedicated to her. This is what love is, to me, a lasting effect of a religion ingrained in the depths of my heart—one I have kept buried for so long I had accepted a life that carried on without such a concept—until, of course, you. Pounding at my doors, stringing with you the kind of consequence that seems good enough even at the face of eternal damnation.
I am no saint, however. In fact, I will never be one, but this remains good.
My scriptures tell me loving you is a sin, but I will have no qualms spending an entire lifetime to repent for each kiss, each hold, each embrace; covering ground and crusading over the maps of our skins. All this that I've done, I will continue to be doing, if only to serve my way of believing in a god that shows itself in the briefest of moments. He is there as I look into your eyes, she bestows upon me her blessing when our breaths meld together, it graciously leaves space for prayer when the gasping reach their peak, at the parting of limbs, within containing water — perhaps that is why Moses’ story continue to be passed onto generation after generation.
This was not meant to be tucked in the deepest corner of an abysmal closet.
I believe it now, have witnessed it myself, albeit not in its truest form. This is the closest I will ever get to Heaven, and I willingly resign to such fate. Even angels pale in comparison to your existence; divine, yet finite; immaculate, yet painfully human.
How can it possibly get any better than that?
Last Line Tag!
I got tagged by @read-and-write- and @littlemisskittentoes. 🫶🫶🫶
Rules: post the last sentence you wrote and tag as many people as there are words.
Reinforcing how he's never good at saying things — Takahiro opts for the quickest answer, simultaneously hugging his knees and lowering his head into it. "It's stupid."
With absolutely no pressure, what's the last line you guys wrote? @blairwaldcrf @44whispers @inexplicablymine @user-anakin (the rest is via open tag for whoever stumbles upon this until I gain enough friends to complete things like this)
