    Summary

    “Should call you the Ottawa Puppies,” says the Toronto centre, Svensson. As an insult it makes no sense, so Ilya ignores it, until he continues, “Hear Hollander keeps you on a short leash.”

    Ilya is the captain, so if anything, he should be holding the leash. In English, you can be singular or plural, but he knows what Svensson is trying to say. He is saying Ilya Rozanov, you are Hollander’s bitch.

    “Only sometimes,” Ilya replies, grinning. He wins the face off.

    OR: Ilya trains himself to be a very, very good guard dog for Shane.

    Summary

    I saw a post on tumblr suggesting a crossover where Murderbot meets Sam Vimes, and I couldn't not write it. Behold:

    Murderbot, randomly pulled into the metropolis of Ankh-Morpork, must figure out how it got here, how to get home, and what the fuck is going on in general. Meanwhile, Sam Vimes of the city guard is hot on the trail of a suspicious-looking case at Unseen University—or at least he would be if he didn't have the baby at home to worry about...

     

    I love TMB and Discworld so much, so I tried to make this as newbie-friendly as possible. If you're coming for the Discworld, the Murderbot stuff is supposed to be as understandable as possible, and if you don't know Discworld at all but love Murderbot, hopefully it still makes sense.

    This is set after Exit Strategy but vaguely before Fugitive Telemetry; on the Discworld side, it's somewhere in between Night Watch and Going Postal.

    Summary

    Peeta’s voice has been inside her head since she turned 14. She doesn’t know why they share a connection, and she doesn’t care. She likes having him with her. They comfort each other. Protect each other. Until he goes where she cannot follow. Until he enters the arena. (Based loosely on the film “In Your Eyes.”)

    Summary

    “We have known each other for quite some time now,” she sighs, her eyes briefly flicking over to Gideon before returning to her hands. Her eyes feel like a spotlight left on too long, slow roasting whatever lay in their path. “You may have gotten the impression that I can’t stand you, but that is the furthest thing from the truth.”

    Gideon snorts. Harrow’s dour expression contorts into a sneer. “Do not flatter yourself. I still find you hardly more of worth than swine, but- you're something. One of the only people I talk to, if I'm being honest. One of the only worth the effort. I look at people, and I see...” Her gaze drifts over to the window. Her voice has taken on a jaded edge, the serrated blade of bitterness.  “Meat. Sacks of organs.

    Summary

    Type in colour, make pesterlogs, and more by following the provided instructions.

    I know there already is a public workskin for Homestuck, but this one has a background function and a function for the larger command font.

    Updated Apr 2024 to clarify some instructions (and also update them according to various layout changes) and to alter the CSS to use percentage widths instead of fixed widths (in order to improve the mobile reader's experience). The Courier New font seems to dislike certain mobile browsers, but I've yet to find a fix for it.
