Some helpful maps for authors who are interested in American terminologies across different regions.

I just found an etsy shop that sells parts for escape rooms and it feels like looking through a store for decorating your animal crossing house 

OH MY GOD PLEASE

i had this dream like a month ago that i was playing a dating sim and at the start you create an avatar of yourself and answer a few personality questions

but then when the game starts you’re actually playing as the love interest on the cover of the game, attempting to romance YOURSELF aka the avatar you just made, and the whole point of the game was to try and show you why someone might find your personality and all your little idiosyncrasies lovable

like if in the personality questions u say u like dry humour, then the love interest will comment on how they love how good your comedic timing with that type of humour is, or if you’re always late, they’ll mention how they always watch the door when you usually come through and seeing you arrive late is part of their routine, etc

it was a super cute idea and i was mad into it and then i woke up and realized it wasn’t real lmfao

I am a(n):

⚪ Male

⚪ Female

🔘 Writer

Looking for

⚪ Boyfriend

⚪ Girlfriend

🔘 An incredibly specific word that I can't remember

So, let me guess– you just started a new book, right? And you’re stumped. You have no idea how much an AK47 goes for nowadays. I get ya, cousin. Tough world we live in. A writer’s gotta know, but them NSA hounds are after ya 24/7. I know, cousin, I know. If there was only a way to find out all of this rather edgy information without getting yourself in trouble…

You’re in luck, cousin. I have just the thing for ya.

It’s called Havocscope. It’s got information and prices for all sorts of edgy information. Ever wondered how much cocaine costs by the gram, or how much a kidney sells for, or (worst of all) how much it costs to hire an assassin?

I got your back, cousin. Just head over to Havocscope.

((PS: In case you’re wondering, Havocscope is a database full of information regarding the criminal underworld. The information you will find there has been taken from newspapers and police reports. It’s perfectly legal, no need to worry about the NSA hounds, cousin ;p))

The real writer experience is standing in the shower and coming up with the most authentic dialogue with perfect phrasing and raw emotion in your head, then stepping out and drying your hair, putting on some clean pajamas and opening a word document to write down all your perfect ideas only to realize everything has evaporated.

My favorite whumpy/fluff MCU books for @clover-roseee cause it would get annoying if I messaged you all the links.

The Occupational Hazard of Being by @frostysunflowers

Five times someone took care of Peter, and one time he took care of himself.

The Fondest Memories Are Made... When Gathered Around the Table by @marvelous-writer

A game of football with the team goes horribly wrong and Peter winds up breaking his nose.

Windy Webs by silentsaebyeok

And that was it. He was officially an idiot. Peter didn’t mean to be dramatic, but this was one of the most embarrassing things to ever happen to him, even if there was no one around to witness the fall of the century.

--

Peter goes web-slinging in dangerous weather and gets seriously injured. It doesn't help that he has to spend the whole summer living with the consequences.

Wild horses couldn't drag me away by @frostysunflowers

''The kid was still stretched out on the bench, covered in blankets with his head resting on the rolled-up leather of Steve’s jacket. The drugs coursing through him had lulled him into a dreamy state between asleep and awake, leaving him prone to fluctuating moments of lucidity and sleepiness.

They’d also made him clingy as hell.''

Queer Eye for the Cacti by silentsaebyeok

He bought one-hundred cacti on Amazon! Pepper was going to kill him!

What had possessed him to do such a thing? He never went on shopping sprees when drunk. That just wasn’t a Tony Stark type of thing to do. And in all honesty, he was astonished he even remembered the Amazon password.

--

Tony makes an interesting purchase while drunk. What he doesn’t expect is for said purchase to bite him in the ass in the worst possible way.

Beanimia by @whumphoarder

While Peter is visiting Tony and Morgan at the lake house for a long weekend, the six-year-old manages to accidentally break Peter’s nose.

Unfortunately, Spider-Man's super-healing decides to go on holiday the same weekend that he does.

characters going out for a break at a restaurant/movie/whatever and something bad happening

using the “*gasp* what’s that over there???” trick to avert the enemy’s attention and it working

a villain’s weakness being something totally random and nonsensical

a hero duo arguing over who’s the sidekick while fighting a villain

“don’t be silly, we don’t need [important thing]”  “you lost it, didn’t you?”  “yeah”

“what’s the one thing I told you not to do tonight?”  “raise the dead”   “and what did you do?”  “raised the dead”

“I think that went pretty well” *explosion in the distance*
