tethering death by kj_crwn

oughhh this fic deals with some more sensitive aspects of mydei's immortality, but the way that phainon tries to be there every time he revives makes me emo 🥺😭 I love rereading this when I want a somber/sweet fic!

Phainon and Mydei voicing R18 lines in the same booth and being very unprofessional post-recording LMAOO It's very fun to see Phainon being a shaking sweaty (horny) dog while in proximity to mydei >:3c

someone on twitter mentioned never being able to conceive of mydei and phainon breaking up, but this fic feels like it gets really close to the feelings of that!! Very somber but ends sweetly 🥺

DanCae (mostly Caelus) trying to get Phainon n Mydei to confess to each other already is so silly, but what made me laugh out loud was phainon going "what is 'yaoi'?" 😭😂

jock4jock knuckleheads with miscommunication abound, this fic reminds me fondly of 00s era "chick flicks" and i go back to it when I wanna laugh at how silly they are! ☺️

Run Away by Irisinally

Cipher stumbles across a young phainon and mydei before they end up coming to Okhema, and sort of becomes their wrangler!!! It's such an endearing fic, esp her exasperation when she notices the boys getting close ;3c

Those Heirs Uncrowned by Maleficar
archiveofourown.org/works/662511...
ALL OF THEIR PHAIDEI WORKS ARE BANGERS but obviously THU was the one I stumbled across first! Phainon undercover as a sex slave sounds sus but I'm a sucker for AUs like that AND they do it very well ;3c

Mydei propositioning a hunky/tortured eldritch being (khaslana) in the forest on a dare and then being *pikachu face* when the thing follows him home afterwards is soooo funny to me lskdfj

The Worst Taste in Music by strifeless

Nothing like the drama of two knucklehead musicians acting like sad wet dogs while pining for the other and writing SONGS about each other and wanting each other's songs to be about THEM!! >8,D

This is an AU that was posted before 3.4, but it still gives me brainworms when I reread it! Phainon manifesting his memories of Mydei into reality and ruining the day/night cycle in the process fkjsldf
Thankful that I made it through the 30 days with only a few skips.
Also thankful that Brent put the outside lights up today. So festive and shit.
Trying not to talk myself out of going to the show tonight so let's do pre thankful for that to encourage the trip!

To Break You Apart by uninspired_hippo
archiveofourown.org/works/723477...
This fic is one of the SLOWEST BURNS I've kept up with so far!!
I love that the author imagines what came *before* their "10 day 10 night duel" and mydei having cuteness aggression @ phainon LMAO
Thankful for one more family day. The Game didn't go the way we wanted but it was the way we expected so though not thankful for results I'm thankful for watching as a family and all of us taking it mostly in stride.
Mostly. 😂

"turns out none of the great poets have written about this feeling" by DFP

This fic being absolutely silly with the "I didn't know I proposed to you???" plot and the way phainon has to make it up to mydei makes this one suchh a fun reread!!

"almost blue" by alhthm
archiveofourown.org/works/70151231
something about "omelas child mydei" and the way this fic is written has me going back to it often! It's somber and mydei's pov as a once-feral child is something I don't see often? but I wish there was more of!! ;w;
Thankful for a family day. Ran some quick errands this morning then spent the day at home. We watched KPop Demon Hunters then played a couple of games. Thankful for the time.

Opening credits to Christmas Vacation our Thanksgiving night traditional movie.
Thankful for a lovely Thanksgiving. Katie and her girlfriend are here for a few days and we had a lovely dinner. Now on to Christmas....
#30DaysOfThanks
Roasting pan with ham and two side casserole dishes tucked into an oven for a size check.
Thankful that everything will fit in the oven tomorrow. We had a back up plan to use the grill if needed but it's nice that we won't have to.
I miss my double oven and we will be getting another one soonish.

Tiger cat and Tuxedo cat sleeping on the footstool.
Thankful for sleeping kitties.
They're really good boys when they are sleeping.

Backdated thankfulness again...
Monday:
Thankful that I am still weaning myself off of social media. I read more than I post. After years of being multiple times a day poster it's sort of surprising to me that I can easily miss a few days now. Thankful that disengaging is working.
#30DaysOfThanks
Thankful for the chance to see Little Women at Portland Center Stage. It was a unique take on it and a really talented cast. We don't have a free Sunday again until after Christmas and this was a good kickoff for that stretch.
#30DaysOfThanks
Thankful for smoothly run errands this morning. Very little traffic, short lines, Brent drove.
Followed by Michigan wins in Football and Hockey. Go Blue!
As an extra, the women's basketball team showed incredible grit last night, thankful I get to watch them continue to grow.

Can you see him? The hummingbirds we get this time of year are so pretty. Really brilliant colors.
You can keep your raindrops on roses I think a dew covered spider web is gorgeous.
Thankful for hummingbirds at the feeder and raindrops on spiderwebs. The pictures aren't great because it's cold outside so they are through the window but trust me it's all lovely. Gearing up to write an emotional blog so thankful for a morning of beauty out the window.
#30DaysOfThanks
Thankful that I'm done with that really long book (or I will be when I wrap it up as bedtime reading)
Talented writing but SO MUCH OF IT. Sort of like getting bored chewing while eating a big salad. It's good but...so much
Thankful it only took one more day instead of three!
#30DaysOfThanks
Thankful for a quiet day reading.
Trying to get through a REALLY long book. Another three days of doing nothing but reading should do it...maybe.

Phainon going for MONTHS (years??) without realizing the deli he frequents (mydei's) is a mob front! My fav part is when phainon's thinking back on all the milestones he's shared with mydei wahh 😭💕
Thankful that it's my game and so I make up the rules...
Also known as I forgot to post my thanks yesterday. So backdated thankfulness.
Thankful for a low key Sunday wrapping up some TV series we've
been watching.

THIS STARTS OFF SO SILLY/HORNY with phainon bein able to see into mydei's thoughts, but then it gets SAD->fucky->tender??? I think I reread it several days in a row bc of that LMAOO
Thankful for DVRs. Too many sports and not enough time slots today. Watching football live and on delay (even if it was SO STRESSFUL) meant getting to see the Thorns and the Wolverines. On to basketball and hockey! Thankful for good technology that we take for granted.
