Shameless Self-promotion. Cue The AOS Theme Song.

isn't it insane though how schizophrenic people are viewed as violent and dangerous by the majority of society when in reality schizophrenic people are nearly 14 times more likely to be on the receiving end of violence than to be the perpetrators...

Everyone: Tony created Ultron.

Me: 👇👇

Very important, actually, but I’m sure y’all can tell.

Nothing important... Just admiring Natasha Romanoff :)

Reflection

This year, I worked on a lot of stuff by maintaining a regular habit of spewing garbage out by quantity and not quality, and went over to the AOS boat since I missed feeling sad over fictional characters who die many, many times.

I want to say that I'm proudest of the weekend I wrote all of Somewhere Only We Know because I wrote the entire fic of 15k+ words in less than four days, but I like the fluffiness of I Will because usually I end the story with people dying and instead they got engaged and I'm happy about that.

I'm glad I got the chance to work on a project per month because my writing has improved drastically from when I first started out writing (at 11, Drarry 💀 with zero paragraph breaks) and actually publishing things (at 12, OC/Draco [kill me now] and sprinkles of Brutasha) to now, where my English teachers actually compliment my writing style and how I format and proofread even though I don't ever proofread. I hope I can actually channel all of this fic writing to write a novel this year.

Thanks for the reads and the tag, and sorry I'm late to the party; happy belated New Year, y'all!

@bubbletealife if you feel like it go ahead but I know you don’t write too much

My last Mayday fic! Angst and feels and lots of Mama May and Daisy after the season 5 finale.

UNCALLED FOR

YOURE RIGHT BUT THAT WAS FLIPPIN UNCALLED FOR

Me: *on tumblr, minding my business*

My next chapter, sitting unfinished:

Hello, different anon to… both of the earlier ones lol.

Delighted to see you back with Maydaisy Universe crumbs!

I do have a small question, though: Why and when does Skye start going by Daisy? (And bonus question: how does May feel about it?)

I love the universe you’ve created so much and I have a good many scenes that I’d like to ask what your versions would be like, but I’ll hold myself back for now 😅 (Oh but please don’t feel pressured to write anything, I just wanted to express my appreciation 😊.)

Thank you in advance if you decide to answer this, and I hope you have a lovely day! xx

Hi, different Anon! Happy to hear from you!

Before we start, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who sent me asks because this is the most productive I've been in weeks, and please, please, please, send me more of these! Send as many as you want, and I'll try my best to fulfill all of them. I love seeing these in my inbox every day. Feel free to send me a text or comment on any of these as well, since I'm starved of interaction. I don't plan on posting any of these onto ao3, so little ficlets are all you'll get from me for now.

Onto the main event!

(2x22: SOS pt. 2)

(In the bunks.)

May hovered nervously at the door. Skye had said that she wanted to talk about something. It had been years since the last time they had this sort of talk, but May still knew the ritual. She'd let Skye know that she was outside her door with some sort of snack (Phil made them hot chocolate this time) and wait until the door opened so she could go in and they could start. Talking.

The door swung open, and May went in, walking around the bed to the side that faced the wall. Skye was sitting with her back against the side of the bed, accepting the mug of hot chocolate that was offered to her.

May settled down next to her, shoulder to shoulder. They both stared aimlessly at the wall in front of them.

"I'm fine," Skye began, and they both knew that was a lie. "I'm not... feeling weird or panicky or anything. I just sent Ward and Kara off with Cal for their trip to LA. Cal's... he's very excited to see his clinic."

Her mother hummed softly. "And you? Are you..." She sighed. "How did your talk go with him? Before the procedure."

Skye fidgeted with her hands. It was a nervous habit, one that she had learned to suppress on most occasions. "It was fine," she replied. "He told me about my past. Uh..." She quirked up the corner of her mouth, sparing a glance at the agent next to her. "Apparently, I liked applesauce over bananas and my grandparents are dead."

May huffed a laugh.

"He told me my name, too." Skye's hands fiddled with themselves. Nervous habit. "My full name. Apparently, they never gave me one in Chinese because we were going to move back to the States."

"What is it?" May asked after a moment. "Your real name."

"Daisy Louise Johnson," Skye said, her smile twisting around the words. "Not sure where the Louise part comes from. Maybe a grandma or a great-aunt."

May nodded. She took a sip of her hot chocolate. "Are you going to keep it?" she asked. "Change it back?"

Skye shrugged lightly. "I'm not sure. I wanted to, uh..." She shifted closer to May. "Ask you first."

"It'll take some getting used to," was the first thing out of May's mouth. "Phil will have the hardest time out of all of us. But I think you can do it. It's your decision."

Skye drained her mug, placing it on her bedside table before she spoke again. "I think..." She hesitated. "I think I might want to. But I want to change some things as well. Because-" Skye swallowed nervously- "Well, I wanted it to mean something."

Avoiding May's eyes, she passed her mother a notepad with three words scribbled on it hastily over and over again, like Skye was practicing her signature.

May traced her fingertip over the clearest three, eyes curious and processing what had been presented to her.

'Daisy May Johnson'.

Oh.

Oh, I see.

May glanced at her daughter, who’d taken to staring at the floor and picking at her hands absent-mindedly. “I think it suits you,” she said quietly.

Skye was quick to look up at her, a small smile blooming on her face. “You really think so?”

May pulled the girl closer, breathing it in. They had a long few months. This… this felt like the natural conclusion and a new doorway for them to step through. “Yeah, I do,” she said. “You want to tell Phil, or should I?”

Skye chuckled. “I think I’ll tell him, but can you be there?” She buried her head in May’s shoulder. “He’s gonna be all weird about it until you say it’s not weird.”

“Of course.” May leaned her head on Skye’s. “Thank you.”

Skye hummed. “For what?”

“Keeping me with you.” May squeezed Skye’s hand. “Me and Phil, we wanted to talk to you about what we talked about after you found your parents, but it might not be the right time.”

Her daughter smiled softly. “I don’t think it is,” she said. “I’m sorry.”

“Don’t be. You’re…” May held Skye tighter. Well, she’d have to stop calling her ‘Skye’ in her head soon. She’ll make the switch once it’s official. “I’m glad to have you as you are.”

Skye tapped her hand twice, the one she was holding.

I love you.

May let herself relax for a moment, and let the silence blanket them like she used to tuck Skye in.

It’ll be a change, but for her daughter, it was worth it.

Banging my pots and pans here once again, the final chapter of A Guide On How NOT To Make Your Kouhai Jealous is up!

sO :D

hello! i’m aware that you’re (sadly) on hiatus for your sunglasses, leather jackets, and laptops series, but i was hoping that maybe you would still take this quick request of mine?

i love how you’ve built up their relationship prior to canon and how we can see the small, but many, impacts may has had on skye. i’m absolutely starving for good maydaisy content atm, so i was hoping to convince you to give us some of may being jealous of jiaying (s2) or skye’s reaction to may’s framework? :’)

no stress at all if not, though, i understand we do not control the hyperfixations, they control us—just thought i would try to shoot my shot, so to speak.

thank you for what you’ve given us so far and i hope you have a lovely day!

Hi Anon! Thanks for the request!

To be very completely honest, I’ve been toying with the idea of writing and posting a collection of scenes from what I’ve planned for s2 and on (some MayDaisy, some Philinda, some Dousy, etc etc) as compensation for dropping the series, but I’ve been experiencing some stupid writers block (that I may or may not have gotten from my friend, the jury’s still out on that) so I haven’t really written anything as of late. I really want to though!

As for the MayDaisy stuff you’ve talked about, I’d love to write it, really, I would, but that’s between my brain and my schedule, so I’m not sure how fast I could make it for you! If I don’t know you already and you don’t mind breaking your anonymity, feel free to shoot me a text over tumblr and we can talk about this and so I can tag you if/when I finally write and post it! If you don’t wanna be known though that’s totally fine, you’ll just have to pray and check this page every so often. Yknow, typical anon request behaviour.

Thank you so much for expressing interest in this series! I’m absolutely starved for AOS interactions (though through no fault but my own) so thank you thank you so much for shooting your shot, as you say. You don’t know how much it means to me.

For anyone else who’s seeing this, feel free to request some other MayDaisy or other in-this-universe interactions, and I’ll see what I can do!
