I write a lot of nonsense, and sometimes I draw things, too. Come yell at me about anything you feel like. 'Antilocapra' on AO3. (She/her)

I figured I should probably do one of these (for ridiculously self-indulgent organizational purposes), so here’s a masterpost of my main fics on AO3. Read ‘em, comment on ‘em, and I’ll love you forever. (Of course, it should go without saying to mind the tags and read with caution. I write a fair amount of gore and body horror along with all the comedy and fluff.)

Complete: HLVRAI Sweet Dreams Are Made of Bees - The one that started it all, and still probably my favorite of all my fics. Post-canon Gordon is dreaming - but if he dies in the dream, he dies in real life.

To Guide And To Guard - A Sentinel/Guide AU where Gordon is a sentinel, Benrey is a guide, and the rest of the Science Team is along for the ride.

Speechless - HLVRAI Gordon gets bitten by a weird-colored headcrab and loses the ability to speak, but still has a lot to say. Shenanigans ensue.

Changing The Game - Gordon gets shot and Benrey goes ballistic. Hurt/comfort.

Better Than None - A bunch of prompt fills for a kiss-themed prompt list. The whole thing is over 40k words long, and most of them could honestly be standalone fics.

Our Flag Means Death By Any Other Name - Written after episode 8 but before episode 9: the British navy decides to take the “beard” out of “Blackbeard.” (Still inordinately pleased that I wrote this before the actual canon beard-shaving happened.)

Ongoing: HLVRAI Some Stars Are Not Enough - An Among Us crossover that is being played completely straight and also not taking itself seriously at the same time. At one point a wall falls down for three chapters.

Evergreen - The de-aging fic for people who don’t like de-aging fics (according to the comment section, at least).

Coevolutionary Adaptations - Venom crossover series. Currently being uploaded as standalone fics because it’ll go NSFW at some point and I want to make it easier for people to opt out of that if they want.

Our Flag Means Death There Is Water At The Bottom Of The Ocean - Lighthouse Keeper!Stede and “actually a kraken” Ed AU.

Getting inspired to write is actually really easy! All you need to do is be the busiest you've ever been in your entire life and as far away from a computer as humanly possible. Hope this helps 🥰

yk what i hate though. is when i find a meme and im like THIS IS SO [cool intimidating mutual i never talk to] I SHOULD SEND IT TO THEM but then i remember ive never talked to them ever and so i cant just like give them a meme out of the blue and so the meme just withers and rots in my camera roll 😔

Reblog if a mutual who's never spoken to you can randomly send you memes that made them think of you.

[Start ID: Fanart for @dimonds456's HLVRAI Stuck Together AU askblog featuring the scene where Benrey-and-Gordon's fusion attempt to put out the fire with sweet voice as per an asker's suggestion. Xe sings a couple of orange to purple orbs at the fire, but instead of extinguishing, the flames turn purple. He scratches the back of his neck and grins nervously, sweating: "Hah, nope, guess not. Maybe a different color...?" Their eyes dart back to Bubby, who glares at them pointedly. "Okay so you made it pretty," Bubby says and jerks a thumb over his shoulder, "now GET OUT OF HERE!" Behind them, Tommy observes: "Oh! The fire turned purple- th- that means there's, there's traces of potassium in it- the sweet voice!" /End ID.]

Late to the show, but here's fanart for one of @hlvrai-stuck-together 's silly scenes that made me go teehee + bonus Tommy talking about fire and chemical reactions.

i got a bunch of small animations done today. i wanted to do more but today hasn't been the best for animating .. ill probably make a bunch more in the future though !!

this piece of trivia is so funny to me because of how many implications it has. Benrey killed 37 people. Apparently, by HLVRAI standards that’s not a lot of people. He’s the main villain in the series. Any character that’s working with the good guys has killed more people than he did.

And it gets funnier once you start looking at the other members of the science team

I think one of the funniest lines in this series (probably not THE funniest but it's up there) to me is "If I had a knife I would gut you" in Act 3 Part 3

Just like

The absolute desperation, the exhaustion, in Gordon's voice.

The fact that this is said in response to Benrey mocking him for getting his hand/like half of his forearm chopped off by the U.S military.

The way Bubby immediately chimes in and essentially lets Gordon know "Hey, I have a knife on me if you'd like to follow through on that"

Like it's hilarious
