A pinned thread for my OFMD fics (completed and WIPs), art, and recommendations feeds and lists!

Pinning any of these feeds to home (option at the top right of each feed) will let you access them easily, but this will stay pinned here too.

I'll be adding to this list and to the feeds over time.
You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who's coming to save you?

On the one hand, I think she's a little busy right now saving the rest of the world 👀 On the other if she actually WANTED to rescue me I have zero doubts she'd manage 😂

I’ve often said I’m working my way through every special interest I’ve had in my entire life in fic 😂 I’ve written so many that I made a collection (it has 24 fics in it):

Bigfoot’s dick cupcakes are my proud contribution to this one and now I’m trying to talk myself out of actually making them fr 😌😌

Absolutely incredible chapter full of whole new levels of fuck-around-and-find-out desperate yearning for your almost-ex-secret-husband who YOU asked for a divorce—
Got some new divorce boys chapters for y'all! This baby's got range: we're talking about Bigfoot's dick, the Jungian nature of creativity, and the ethical implications of grinding up against your sleeping ex-ish husband 😌

This three-part episode (part 1 out today) is so much fun- I’ve seen several of the tasks that inspired it but the OFMD versions take it to the next level and beyond as Stede finally starts to figure out his feelings 👀
We're back! Episode 6 ofYour Time Starts Now begins today. As a thank you for your patience/exercise in cruelty, this is a three-parter/updates over two weeks (Mon, Mon, Thurs).

Stede brings in a stopcock, Ed battles a pheasant plucker & Izzy gets gonged.

5yo me got to visit a medieval German castle, growing up in Europe as an Aussie expat, which had a DUNGEON.

The dungeon quite specifically blew my little mind, because it was such a strong example of how different life could be in the past.

Decided on the spot I was going to be an archaeologist.
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

HEY HEY HEY LOOK, In the Spirit and In the Flesh in audio 😍

In case you missed this one it’s a bonkers little story in which scientist Ed gets volunteer Stede to help him test whether a week of somnophilia could help him break through his repressed feelings, all done as reports and diary entries 👀
What is this?! depressionrobe finally posting a podfic after a whole ass year of silence?!

you better believe it. @clairegregoryau.bsky.social’s In the Spirit and In the Flesh, which is a somno focused research paper epistolary is soooo fucking good and i finally have finished the podfic!

I have never looked cool a single day in my life, so solidarity with anyone else in the same boat 😂 All the available shreds of cool that might ever have existed have been deposited in the kids and the fictional characters, for the greater good 😌

Ooh I’d heard this but I hadn’t seen the pic before 👀

Was also unaware of this when writing Somewhere Beyond the Sea in May 2022 and I continue to feel like my brain was truly plugged into the mainframe with that one 😂😂

It's been nearly two weeks since I managed any fic writing and it feels baaaad 😭 But I have been working on a new original story a little, around work. And I DID start my OFMD Lost AU before that, for something new to share 🫠

Yep, turns out sharks and mermaids are definitely compatible in the end- the diving boys really won at science this Halloween 😌 #OFMDNSFW #OFMDfanart

I've had a tonne of driving to do this week and I've been relistening to this myself- enjoying it every bit as much as the first time! It's truly such an impressive work of narration, great effects, and blending background sounds subtly to set the scene (but there is a no-FX version available, too!)

Diving boys Halloween thoughts earlier- Stede doing his last circuit of the closed aquatic centre for the night, pausing at the door to the diving pool because the whole thing is glowing an eerie blue for some reason.

Also, there’s— steam? coming off it.

Is that some terrible chemical imbalance?

Truly such a brilliant work from @kninjaknitter.bsky.social 😍 Forever delighting in it (also the first time anyone EVER read my words out loud in over two decades of writing, and I'll never forget how that felt ❤️)

Maybe some things, maybe a LOT of things are absolutely shit, but I got to have brunch with @wardrobespierre.bsky.social and his delightful husband and my delightful husband this morning, including this TOP tier strawberry matcha latte, and then I got my ears repierced, and a few things are good ❤️❤️

Lots of other people have already said it (and I love that), but shouting out everyone who feels a little invisible when these posts go around, whether you're a lurker or a cheerleader or because life has been lifeing and you've found yourself out of sight and out of mind ❤️
Because we need a little positivity: who are the people in OFMD fandom who you most look up to and want to send a little love?

Anyway I'm just thinking about all the people who write, beta, make art, sew, knit, podfic, podcast, edit, cosplay, post, stream, write meta, create stuff, inspire others etc.

And all the people who like, read, comment, share, collect, wear stuff, listen, watch, talk, cheer etc.

Thank you ❤️

Here’s one more snake-lovin’ NZ firefighter, in case you needed her today!

There’s a delightful fic by @clairegregoryau.bsky.social that goes along with this too!

Full Fathom Five was a months-long real-time labour of love, with a writing process that my husband described as like sitting vigil by a lover's grave 😅 I turned up every day for 101 days and spun out a post-S2 story that I adore.

I think we may be cursed, actually 🙃 Brain injury survivor mum just had to be whisked off to the ER tonight after whacking her head again earlier in the week- a concussion rather than another bleed, thankfully, but I’m about to bubble wrap her going forward 🫠
