quick speedpaint ‘cause this has been in my head for ages. phone depicted above is Sherlock’s, not John’s.
stop it
no
stop
And then, on good days (when he can stand to think about him and all the good memories they had), John calls Sherlock’s cell just to hear his voice before he leaves a voicemail. It’s a ridiculous sounding message, but so inherently Sherlock, spoken in that bored and exasperated tone John knew too well: “Sherlock Holmes, Consulting Detective. Don’t bother leaving a message if it isn’t pertinent to a case.”
And, sometimes, hearing his voice would be enough for John. Enough to make him smile and laugh, and hang up and go about with his day.
Sometimes, though, he’d have to leave a voicemail. Just a “Hey, Sherlock, I’m not going to be at the flat tonight, just wanted to let you know” or even “Mrs. Hudson said you shot her wall again. I’ll let you take care of it this time.”
And, just once, years after Sherlock’s death, he said,
“I love you.”
Once was enough.
OMG UGLIEST CRYING
John stops blogging. He can’t see the point of it; nothing ever happens to him anymore - he’s just staying alive. But the good days begin to outnumber the bad ones through sheer bloody-minded placidity, and John fills the inbox of Sherlock’s phone with inane little messages and expects nothing back. With: “How many times can I get into a row with the chip and pin machine before they ban me? -JW”, or “Triple murder in the papers today. You’d have loved it. -JW”, or simply “Bloody raining again. -JW” - hundreds of texts about everything and nothing at the same time. And John stops blogging. But he never stops talking about his day.
JFC AS IF THE WOUND ISN’T FRESH ALREADY!
why are you doing this to me
all my brainings are crying mushes now
no why did you type any of that
And then one day, while John is in Tesco ambling around with a half empty basket, the phone, Sherlock’s phone buzzes inside his pocket. He stops dead, eyes widening and pulls it out. Before looking he stills himself and reminds himself that it’s probably just a wrong number or a mistake of some kind, maybe even a message he sent himself that has been delayed for some reason, it happens.
He sighs and turns the phone over, running his fingers over it like it’s some kind of precious object. The screen is lit, telling him there’s a new message, he pushes the button to open it.
Suddenly stiff fingers drop the shopping basket, sending it contents scattering across the vinyl floor. The phone slips from his other hand, bouncing on the hard surface and the screen cracks as once heavy feet are suddenly light in their hurried flight from the store.
The phone lies broken but still on and readable, the message reads *I’m sorry John, come home and don’t forget the milk. -SH*

Kaiba notices things which aren’t perfect, and Kaiba notices Jounouchi. Onesided Kaiba/Jounouchi. Ficlet.
Just a little piece of JouKai, testing out an obsessive!Kaiba dynamic. I’m trying to improve on keeping my structure, syntax, and style cohesive, and this was largely an exercise in that.
Obsessive!OCD!Kaiba. Love it!
And short enough to keep my attention span ^^”
Just wanted to pimp my latest fic out in case someone out there on tumblr finds the idea interesting.

Rating: PG-13
Warning(s): None at the moment
Genres: Adventure & Sci-FiFull Summary: After seven years of confinement, Yuugi finds the world is nothing like he remembered. The only place he might belong now is among a group of rebel IDS fighting for their freedom. But the Kaiba Corporation isn’t about to just let Yuugi get away, and Noah has sent the company’s greatest bounty hunters to recapture him. -A biopunk AU-
Being archived as a WiP at FF.net at the moment. Will be archived on AO3 once complete.
New chapters every Thursday?
READ IT. IT’S AWESOME.
Alecto… does “once complete” mean once Part 2 is done as well?
If so, *SIGH*. It means I have to go onto ff.net again. ^^”
Yeah, “once complete” as in part 2 gets finished too. But I was totally planning to send you more to beta (if you want to) once I have a substantial amount of part 2 done!
Admittedly, I’m more likely to get comments when posting on FF.net than on AO3. I use AO3 more like a secondary archive, and its neat ebook download feature must be handy for other people too.
Of course I want to!
(Also, yeah. That’s very true about the posting on ff.net vs Ao3…)

In no particular order and I am sure everyone who likes a popular pairing has these issues.
1. Kaiba interpretation by me and others. It is very annoying to have someone sit there and tell you that your favorite puppyshipping story is OOC because of Kaiba and what they believe Kaiba should be like, act like, whatever. It is very hard to say what he would actually be like in a relationship because he really does have a lot of contradictory aspects and he changes so much throughout the series, how are we to know how much more he changes when he is an adult and furthermore middle aged. I think there are a lot of people who believe Kaiba is ONLY THIS WAY AND THIS WAY ONLY! (Some believe him to be an ace which is troublesome when you like a pairing with him)This makes it very hard to rec stories without fear of someone thinking you have poor taste.There are more people who have a stick up their butt about Kaiba than any other character in Yugioh. Least that I have seen. :/ Other than me, no one I know will dislike a well written story with an OOC Jonouchi in it.
2. The unfairness that the characters are treated. EVERYONE LOVES KAIBA SO MUCH MORE THAN JONOUCHI IT ISN’T EVEN FUNNY. More people will enjoy a story with Kaiba perfectly IC and Jonouchi completely OOC than the other way around. Infact, if someone manages a great Kaiba even I am willing to go “maybe they deserve the attention?” but at the same time it is so annoying to try and present how I think these two would be- ug. Arguing that Jonouchi is stronger than Kaiba in both body and mental health is one of the most losing battles I have. But that is how I feel.
3. How they are so hard to write in character AND romantically interested in each other. It is way too difficult to even get these two in the same room together much less find a reason to be “romantic” with one another. Remember, this is my OTP and I am saying how difficult it is to make them want to kiss. So much work!
4. I hate the stereo type that goes through peoples minds when I tell them I love puppyshipping. Immediately it jumps to some of the worst fanfics out there. Jonouchi crossdressing, working for Seto “Kiaba” and Kaiba calling him “puppy”, hugs, kisses cuddles, and they are now married because it was arranged or something. O.O; LOLwhut. No I don’t like any of that. I like the idea of Jonouchi taking care of Kaiba and Kaiba begrudgingly letting him because he has no real choice or even the other way around. I like survival stories or depressing events to bring these two together. I even enjoy some comical retardedness so long as it is self aware. But I don’t think I like any of the tropes at face value. There must be something more for me to like it. For the most part I like my puppyshipping very dark.
5. I don’t like it how Jonouchi is on bottom 99% of the time. No one even considers making him top. I kinda see Jou/Kai as equal and fighting. When I talk about my appreciation for Seme!Jonouchi/Uke!Kaiba I am either met with “I never thought of it before.” or … and this one is more often “Seto would never let someone top him.” *huffs* Really? REALLY? Nothing is more annoying than that phrase because it is like a brick wall. I couldn’t even rec something with Jonouchi on top at that point.
I am so guilty of some of these things.
I feel like a lot of my fics are fluff, but I can’t be sure (and I don’t remember) so I have this idea to catalogue all of my fics by POV and type (fluff, PWP, other) to see what things I gravitate to. (That might take a while.)
But then I go an do things like “Wrong” that are like, (in my very skewed option) so on point. (Sorry for the self-plug disguised as proof).
And then I have this neurotic, actually-a-softie, tsndere!Kaiba that I always fall back on.
I just have a lot of head-canons, okay? :P
#2? omg. SO guilty. (Sorry, Jou! I love you too bb, but…)
As for the fear of being the sterotyped puppyshipper, I feel that so much. Though more of it (for me) might also be because I’m generally very self-concious of what I think other people are thinking about me…
That being said, ODG the “puppy” thing? DO NOT WANT. (I’m probably guilty of that too.)
#5, guilty yet again.
I remember, probably inaccurately (like most things I remember), that I didn’t write any Seme!Jou fics when I was younger.
However, having now grown older, I do want to see more and write more fics where they are seen more like equals.
Will try to see how that works out…

This is a scan of what is probably my first ever fanfic… obviously unfinished. The scope of this fic would’ve been huge, but I don’t know if I ever wrote more of it. (If I find more pages, I’ll be sure to show you guys.)
I shipped Luke/Callista so hard. And then Mara came around and I was all indignant. XD”
Eventually, I got into anime more and I didn’t keep up with all of the published fanfiction novels so Star Wars sort of fell off to the side.
:’)
Good memories.
