  3. Summary

    Welcome the playlist drabbles. this is kind of a way for me to work on my need for perfectionism and step out of my comfort zone when it comes to writing, also to stop worrying about word count and work on characterization. This is a challenge I decided to take up myself. There are some small connected stories throughout the playlists so I hope you enjoy those. There will be approximately 100 drabbles b/c I'm leaving out remus's playlist. Why? I'm a minor. I refuse to write a one shot for "no reason boner" as well as other songs on his playlist. (also the fact i'm not really 100% comfortable with remus as a character). Anyways hope you keep reading along and enjoy the project, the weirdness and whatever else comes up. I would also like to take the time to point out that the summaries are going to my original concepts as well as all my planning. Yes this came out of one sentence.

    Also as per the rules of the playlist drabbles, I'm only allowed to read over these and edit them twice and if I see a mistake after, I'm not allowed to fix it. So if you see a typo, just keep reading, ignore it, look away, you do not see it.

    Summary

    Performance Issues, HotGuy?
    By Grian

     

    In recent weeks, HotGuy has been leaving much to be desired on the battlefield. It seems after many long, hard fights, he just can’t keep it up. He used to be quite anal about his victories, but now he’s had a few close calls. Could it be that his arrows just aren’t what they used to be? Is he firing blanks? I wouldn’t be surprised if his enemies are having to fake their defeat. Of course, HotGuy is far from the only man who struggles to hit the target, so maybe I shouldn’t be so harsh.
    Three of HotGuy’s record fights for injuries and collateral damage have all occurred this month, an alarming statistic in the face of the continued attacks. The root of the issue may be difficult to swallow…

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I'm very picky when it comes to fics that reach my s-tier must reads. this fic went above and beyond that. the author is an incredibly talented writer and their wit and humour shine thru in every character interaction. all the characters are well written and every one feels well rounded and alive. no moment falls flat. i was sat at the edge of my seat and found myself leaning closer and closer to my computer as i read. i got lost in the prose, and few fics have gotten me to that point. it is criminal this fic only has 3k reads, for a stupendous work you deserve all the eyes and i firmly leave this fic with a 5 star outstanding review. I look forward to the final chapter as well as whatever this author puts out going forward.

    Summary

    The first strike hit harder than most could hit, and it made Technoblade’s arms sting, though he managed to stumble back into the wall and keep ahold of his weapon. He swung at the figure, but the opponent was far too fast and precise. It blocked the hit with ease, and a hand clamped down around his wrist. He was yanked forward and forced off balance. His wrist stung as it was twisted, and his sword dropped to the ground. He gave a pained yelp as he ended up on his knees. Sharp familiar metal touched his throat, and he could taste death on his tongue.

    But it didn’t come.

    This is a collection of one-shots that give a little bit of backstory for Phil and Technoblade in my story One More Step Out of the Pit. I'd suggest you read that one first, especially because chapter 1 spoils a bit of the mystery there.

    Summary

    TommyInnit is a vigilante. This is a known fact.

    The sky is blue. The grass is green. TommyInnit is a vigilante.

    TommyInnit also needs a job. A proper one, one that pays him well so he doesn’t need to work three jobs at a time.

    It’s a good thing that the Three Lives Agency is looking for interns, right?

    Summary

    “Be my apprentice,” Icarus blurted.

    Tommy blinked. Gradually, the corners of his mouth dropped into the deepest frown he’d ever made. “What the fuck? Why?”

    “Why?” Icarus froze and Tommy raised a judgemental eyebrow. “It’s because of your powers.”

    “My powers,” he echoed. “I never told you whether or not I had powers.”

    “I can… sense them,” Icarus bullshitted. Tommy pinched the bridge of his nose.

    “Right. What are they, then,” he retorted.

    “Uh… super… powers,” the villain answered, sounding more unsure of himself by the second.

    Tommy wanted to bash his head against a wall. “Really? That’s the best you could do?”

    ------

    Tommy isn’t sure why handing someone their keys is such a big deal, but now he’s left with a huge problem: Every supervillain in the city wants him to be their apprentice!

    - or -

    Tommy’s lame superpower turns out to be a game-changer.
