miscellanium: still of lawrence dane as mitzi in rituals (1977) (rituals | put us back together again)
so...in my last post i mentioned i was working on "an extremely niche fic for an obscure film many people have never heard of".... well, i finished it! and i've been experiencing the very particular flavor of embarrassment that comes when something speaks to you in a way that makes you feel exposed, like when you can't decide if you wish you could be a character or if you want to bang them. but it's been my philosophy the past couple years to fight that feeling and just have fun and be proud of what i'm making even if it's not perfect (embrace cringe, be free, etc) so i'm sharing this fic around.

it's on ao3 but i may do a kind of post-mortem of it on my fanworks comm in the near future. i remember really enjoying reading about some of the research that'd go into longer fics back in my supernatural days so it might be fun to do something similar, though i think my focus will be more on why the fuck did i write this LOL. world's first fanfiction for the film and it's porn. it's not what i would call a pure pwp, though, since i couldn't resist throwing in some character study/references to the film.

but anyway, if this is gonna be my niche, i gotta embrace it the same way i've been embracing my thirst for lawrence dane haha. will i write more about these characters? knowing me, and knowing i've been fixated on the film for five months now, yeah, probably. it's just a matter of time, same way it was with this fic, though to be fair this one is the result of a dare. and i've had a couple people on discord tell me they enjoyed the fic without knowing anything about the film other than what they read on wikipedia, which is as encouraging as it is flattering. (i did include a link to a little album of screenshots at the top of the fic so people could know what kind of faces to visualize if they wanted, haha.)
