I am also EstelRaca on AO3 and I tend to like to read similar to what I like to write, if that's helpful.

I will love anyone in any of the fandoms.  I love found family, angst with a hopeful or happy ending, hurt/comfort, biology/xenobiology, and werewolves.  Thank you so much for your interest!

Finally getting this out here (apologies; I had COVID).  If you've already written something, please feel free to ignore this!  I will most likely enjoy it thoroughly.  If you haven't, here are some more ideas!

( Purim Gifts Ideas )

So I promised some happy stories once upon a time (and I need to remember some), so here's a few:
( Cornbread )
( Cuddles )

( Ruger )

Just a few stories to show that puppies are adorable and stupid and my job is sometimes pretty awesome.

Actually had a pretty boring day at work today--no really great tales to tell, nothing too traumatic that happened.  The coolest thing was getting to do an allergen-specific immunotherapy order based on an IgE antibody test, and though *I* thought it was awesome, it would probably just be really boring to everyone not in the medical field.

The other cool thing was meeting a sixty-five-year old woman in a lesbian relationship--I'll call her A because this is getting complicated otherwise.  ( Yay for meeting older queer people )
Hope everyone else has had a pretty good day!

Finally getting to writing prompts for people!  This is for Jessie, who requested "Enjolras and Combeferre as children, it's Combeferre's birthday and Enjolras tries to do something special for him".  This is in the same universe as the one I did for TC last time, Simple Joys, and the stories have also decided that they're in the To Follow/Lingering Visions/Forward 'verse.  None of those are necessary at all to enjoy this story, though if you like Adventures of Chibi!Amis "Simple Joys" might entertain you.

Enjolras learns about astronomy, mythology, entymology, and the dangers of Brownian motion while making a gift for Combeferre.

( Falling Stars )

So seeing Vee and TC offering drabbles made me itch to write a few one-shots, too.  I'm going to go the boring route and just have people send in a character/characters/pairing and either a prompt or a phrase and I'll get a one-shot back to you as soon as possible.  We'll start with two prompts a person like before and then go from there.

I realized I'm a few chapters behind on posting... well... everything.  Here's the next chapter of this; the next chapter of werewolves will be up as soon as I get a chance to format it.  (This gets priority because Cat drew me a pic for it and I shall have to get him to post it!)

In this chapter, Grantaire finally gets in touch with Combeferre to discuss his dilemma, because there is clearly a big difference between a puppy and an Enjolras-sphinx, even if both are legally classified as pets.

Prologue; Part 1; Part 2; Part 3

( Part Four: Summoning Service )

So, things are finally coming together on our move (living in the new house now, with a lovely new bed, and a brand new kitten because apparently our cats multiply every time we move), so hopefully Cat and I shall be around more often in the near future.  Miss you all!  Have some more Romulan Amis to make up for our absence?

First story in this 'verse:  Wandering Souls

 

( Rest for the Weary )

This one's for you, C-chan, since it's all your fault.  I hope you don't mind oblique mentions of torture.  This is a far-future Star Trek reincarnation fic where the Amis are Romulans.  ...Yeah.  For those of you not into Star Trek, the Romulan Star Empire is one of the three great galactic powers in Trek.  The Romulans are a closely related species to Vulcans (the pointy-eared, green-blooded, logic-loving people that gave us Spock).  The Vulcans turned to logic when they almost destroyed their planet through warfare because theirs is a species of super-strong contact telepaths with extremely strong emotions; the Romulans left around that time, and instead of turning to logic created a culture based on honor, loyalty, a superiority complex, and subjugating others.  The Tal Shiar is the secret police that helps keep the populace in check; the Praetor and the Senate are the oligarchical powers in control of the Romulan Star Empire.  I think that's a pretty good summation.

Also, I first saw the idea of Grantaire as a spy infiltrating the Amis from Vee and TC.  I think this ended up being pretty different from what they did (very different, eventually), but they still get credit for giving me this mental track to follow.

As mentioned above, there is torture below the cut, though I don't do anything graphically.
