and i love you because you loved him :(
idk if this is a young fan thing or new fandom culture but some of yall think fics are abandoned way too quickly. a few months or a year or two is not unusual to go without a fic update. sometimes fics take longer to write, other times writers have rl events, or maybe there's multiple fics and one gets more priority. there are tons of reasons for fics not to be updated every week or every month. it also isn't uncommon for people to come back and update fics after a number of years—ive read updates that took five, or ten years. people's lives change, but they still want to tell their stories. personally, i never consider a fic abandoned unless the author has said so; though if it's been a few years i manage my expectations. but a last update being a year ago is... generally not a sign that a writer has abandoned their fic
Another humans are weird space orcs idea because I really like thinking about it. What if aliens have no idea how to hide their emotions? Like, they suck at poker because they can never keep a straight face or anything. or, on a darker note, their ship is hijacked and they can’t keep the fear out of their faces, but all the humans look cold and emotionless to them. Other aliens hating having to bargain with humans becase we can bluff and keep our emotions in check so well, but when they get frustrated it’s all over. Pirates threaten the space ship and they send the human to do negotiations, and the pirate talking is super confused because no matter what threat he makes, the human just doesn’t seem to be fazed one bit.
Someone please, feel free to add to this, I love to see what else people come up with!

I think the message of Howl’s Moving Castle is that in order to maintain a successful relationship with some kind of fucked up wizard, you must find it in yourself to also be some kind of fucked up wizard.
Pairing: Peter x Female!Reader
Warnings: Angst, Mentions of pain etc
Summary: Everyone has a soulmate, but they’re all tied to them differently. Some people have tattoos, others have counters or red strings. You? You can feel the pain your soulmate feels. Any bruises or cuts they receive appear on your body. Other people have this kind of tie to their soulmates too, it was just rare and it seems like you’ve got a bad one. Your soulmate is constantly getting injured and it’s driving you insane..
Part One- “Pain. That was the most common thing your soulmate had you feeling-..”
Part Two- “You didn’t know super-heroes had soulmates that were regular people.“
Part Three- “Could you really handle knowing he was out throwing himself at danger? Would you ever be strong enough to?“
Part Four- “His breath caught in his throat- from your words and the way his name sounded coming from your lips.“
Part Five- “I don’t want you.“
Part Five Point Five- “Imagine feeling this alone- imagine seeing the sad numb faces of people around you with no tie to anyone.“
Part Six- “Did heroes need saving?”
Part Seven- “This time around, he was running from you.”
Part Eight- “Was this what you deserved?”
Part Nine- “..though you couldn’t tell who’s scream was louder, Peter’s or everyone else’s..”
Part Ten- “Peter Parker was going to have to live alone- grieving for a soulmate he never got the chance to love or even know.”
Part Eleven- “He was mad at himself. If he had just stayed like his gut told him to- if he had reacted faster, had a better grip on his Spider-Sense, you wouldn’t be here. You’d be fine.”
End- ““Ugh..”, she whispered into the stars, “Finally..””
