where there's smoke there's--

Haven’t done any fandom posts in a minute, but here goes…

This is a short and sweet post to say I’m probably not going to write about some people that aren’t at WWE anymore. Maybe if they’re connected to current people at WWE but that’s it. I feel my stories with a good chunk of people I wrote about with people not with WWE is over. That’s it. I still love these wrestlers even if they’re not at WWE anymore.

I am trying to write some WWE stuff but I’m procrastinating as I’ve filled my life with things such as “do I need to buy this thing or make this game transaction” and “it is very important I raid people in Clash of Clans today.” It will be done by next month I promise.

I have about around 800 bookmarks and most of them aren’t on AO3. I decided to stop using pinboard.in partly because of the owner’s views and partly because of the lack of tech support on the site (as in the guy still insists on not getting a lot a help for the site). I decided to move my bookmarks to raindrop.io. Despite reading the site’s instructions on how to make bookmarks public I haven’t found the button to make my bookmarks public.

The smartest thing to do is to suck it up, check to make sure what links are still operational and what isn’t duplicated on raindrop.io, and move them to AO3. But I just discovered a couple of alternatives to pinboard.in and Delicious. There’s Linkhut and Linkhorse. I don’t know how fanfic friendly those sites are, though. I’m looking at both of them and I’ll probably have some sort of a solution soon.

Update: Didn’t take me long. I’m going to sort through my duplicates on raindrop.io and move my bookmarks to AO3. It’ll take a while, though.

I decided to do fandom50challenge. I retroactively made my repost of my Scandal fics #1, and the post is here. This week I've decided to talk about a fic idea I have no idea I'll return to. It's that or "fics I'm reccing for comment_bingo early" but that'll be a post anyway, so why write the latter idea now.

So I wrote this fic for the femslashafterdark exchange before it ended. I had a vision for this fic I abandoned because in part I didn't have the time to execute the early years for Nakia and Okoye in the fic. Also my recipient didn't want death in their fic and I abided by that.

I planned to have Nakia start off training with the Dora Milaje before she decided to join the War Dogs. Here she would also be considered to be the Black Panther in case something went wrong in the royal family. Nakia would eventually become disillusioned with the Dora Milaje and feel that Wakanda should become more involved in world matters instead of staying isolationist. While Nakia was with the War Dogs T'Challa would die in combat with Okoye by her side (this idea was based off of a spin-off comic set before the Black Panther movie). Nakia would be picked up while on assignment with the War Dogs and go through the process of becoming the Black Panther (adhering to the MCU process without randomly having her eat a flower and poof, Black Panther). I'd rewrite the fic today but I never saved my canon notes to rewrite it and I'd have to search through everything I wrote to rewrite the fic.
