I Thought Being Bi Was Like The Main Entry Criterion For Tumblr...

Three’s Always a Crowd

Okay, sorry if this is cruel baiting you with a seemingly regular update post, when this is actually to announce I'll be modifying my posting schedule. 🙈

I'm still incredibly in love with the story I'm writing, but my personal and professional circumstances have changed quite a bit since I started writing in January (good things for the most part!)

This gives me way less time to write, unfortunately, so I'm thinking of switching to updating every month at most. This will let me breathe in between chapters and not feel pressured to finish in a rush.

GIF of discombobulated Jack is actually Em when she opens her manuscript and realises how much she still has to edit.

The story itself is all mapped out, so be assured it will be coming out, it's just a matter of when. I want writing to keep being fun, and for that I need to release the pressure of bimonthly updates.

Thanks for everyone who's following this story, thanks for understanding, and hoping to bring you more good smut soon 🙏🏾

What I wrote ten weeks ago in a post, here about how Sawyer felt about Jack when they were on the Island:

His school girl antics with Jack in the first seasons were just the manifestation of his crush in a way he himself couldn't grasp.

What I found yesterday: A French pop song from my youth (so the early 00's lol) sung by a then middle-school girl, to which the lyrics, when translated, say:

Test me, detest me. Love me, look at me.

Test me, detest me. But above all, look at me.

For a gesture, a word from you, I'd give anything I have.

Test me, detest me. Love me, look at me.

Test me, detest me. But above all, look at me.

And I mean, there's no better way to express his way of acting with Jack. It's so on the nose it made me lol for a while when I realised the parallels.

It's giving I'll tease you, call you names, have you break up the fights I'm a part of, follow you around making dumb jokes you're not in the mood for, volunteer for every risky thing you're also a part of, kiss the girl you're obviously crushing on, get injured so you can help me, and if all fails, I'll actually ask you to play courtyard games with me for a while... anything.

Anyting but, please, please, look at me.

Please, let me fuck you. (heyyy, I have smut on the brain, can you blame me?)

Anywayyyyyyyyyyy... Case closed.

THAT'S WHY I NEED THEM ALL TOGETHER STAT!!

whenever two are happy, one is miserable.

Fire edit with a fire song for a fire show 🔥

And they lived happily ever after

Chapter 3: Have a Seat, Baby

Guys, guys guys guys. Guys. The smut has finally arrived. After a month of telling you guys this is a smutty story, here is where I start earning my E rating.

Still lots of cute pining and a nice dose of angst, just because that's how my babies are.

This week has kind of been a bitch to me and writing these three doing nastiezzzzz has been the best distraction, ngl. Lost to the rescue, once again.

Please tell me how you like it lol, there's so much more smut coming. I wanna make sure you guys enjoy 🫶🏽

My three babies, battling their debilitating angst through mind-shattering sex. This is what I wanna always write tbh.

This is everything I've ever needed.

Give this man anything he wants please!

What's in a language?

The floral scent of Kate’s hair brings him back to earth. How sweet it is to lay in her arms. Their relationship had grown even stronger since his release from hospital three months earlier. The impulse to share his desires with her had seemed at times selfish, at others completely ludicrous. Why risk wrecking their perfect balance for a whim?

This is a snippet from my WIP, a part I'm so happy about.

I've been writing fanfiction for two months, and I'm still amazed at how incredibly hard it is to convey things in a language that's initially not my own.

I've been studying (partly) in English for years, did my Master's degree in English, I've been consuming content in that language for almost half my life and yet...

Actually writing out something that's well crafted, that flows, that engages the reader (I'm my first reader and, as a lot of other writers I suppose, my worst critic),... is so incredibly difficult to me.

In many ways, it feels like work.

But I wouldn't say that's a bad thing. It's a task I love taking on because the result, when it's done right, fills me with incredible joy.

I do resort to Deepl at times, because I'm so used to writing prose in French. But I feel like this doesn't impair the result and helps me feel less stuck on the page.

But man, I really would have never guessed before starting this how slowly it comes together.

Mad respect to all writers out there, none of it is easy. But today, I'd like to pay madder respect to non-native writers because dude, that shit is even less easy.

*currently writing a 25k word fic detailing how a threesome would have INDEED fixed them*

A threesome would have fixed them

Right?

People think "Oh these two guys just fought about Kate!"

First of all, they never fought about her. And while they both had feelings for her, the whole trio's dynamic revolves around the fact that both Kate and Sawyer just want Jack's attention and he's too dense (or, ya know, neurodivergent) to notice either of them is flirting with him.

(To be fair, Sawyer himself doesn't realise he's flirting with him. But he is. Oh, he is.)

Imo, you don't understand Jack/Kate/Sawyer relationship if you don't acknowledge Jack as the apex of the love triangle. I know, I know, the show does its best to make you think that's Kate the apex but, really, it's Jack.

Everybody on that island is a little in love with Jack but Jack. Jack hates himself lol.

Thanks for the tag Z. Love your pic and the song is so cute.

Picrew: I don't have green eyes. Wish I did. Let me dream 😇
