Inspired by Eeri's GaaLee fics for Gaza, I will also be offering ShiIta fics in exchange for donations to families in need who are currently raising funds to survive in and relocate from Gaza. If you are interested in receiving a fic from me, please read below to decide what works best for you. (Please note that proof donation will be required for ALL fics!):
In an effort to help Palestinian families who are trying to raise funds to evacuate from Gaza due to the occupations continued genocide, I have decided to offer up GaaLee fanfiction for anyone who donates. My goal with this campaign is to focus on a small group of GFMs at a time in order to better focus the financial impact on these families and their campaigns.
There are two ways to donate in order to maximize donations, and both require proof of donation. The minimum for GaaLee Fanfics for Gaza is $5, while Fanfiction Bids for Falastin starts at $20. Of course I encourage anyone capable of donating more to do so, as the Rafah invasion is a near threat, and even without the occupation invading, they are still bombing Gaza, including the so-called 'safe zone' of Rafah.
Below follows the families this campaign will focus on for now, and how these two campaigns will work.

For more information on how each of these campaigns will work, please check below the cut. If you are not familiar with my writing, you can check it out here.
rereading my own writing is just a constant fluctuation between "damn, girl, you wrote this? (affectionate)" and "damn, girl, you wrote this? (derogatory)"
I am also “damn, girl, you wrote this? (forgetful)”
All I know is that what happened was a tragedy. A terrible tragedy. I probably shouldn’t say this, but… some of these kids, eh, no big loss, if we’re honest. But those girls were special. They were… They were champions.

I think there's something that needs to be said about encouraging readers to leave feedback.
For me it's not about "tell me my writing is amazing and stroke my ego"
It's more about "please engage with me so that I can experience your joy secondhand and foster a connection with you"
I understand that not everyone wants this in their reading experience, some people are shy and a million other reasons why maybe someone wouldn't want to engage and that's perfectly fine!
But what I'm trying to steer away from is being a passive content creator with passive consumers. What I want to steer toward is fostering a community that is essential to fandom. I want to see your reactions because it makes me feel like I'm a part of something.
On encouraging reblogs —
I understand that not everyone is comfortable reblogging, especially explicit content. This is ok!
But just consider that the only reason you were able to enjoy a fic or fanart is because someone else shared it, and by not sharing it yourself you are potentially robbing someone else of the opportunity to enjoy it as much as you did.
As OPs our reach only goes so far and this website relies on reblogs in order for anything to truly get seen by a wider audience.
So that's really it! That's why I encourage these two things at the end of every story I post. Not because I'm trying to be demanding and "make people feel bad" if they don't do it.
I know most other social media sites encourage mindless content consumption and that's just the way of the world nowadays, but I am from a time when community was at the heart of fandom and I just don't want to lose that.

[screaming at the top of my lungs] SHAUNA BABY GIRL I LOVE YOU.
2x3 just had me so!!! oh my god seeing her slowly unfurl and realise what she wants, i support her.
Theoretically, in the wake of their chaotic evening off base, nothing has materially changed between Shisui and Itachi. In reality, Itachi’s pretty sure that everything has.

Shisui’s never understood it, how one person could so effortlessly pull apart the strings holding him together and force all of his soft, complicated bits to come crashing down. The vulnerability he feels around Itachi is as frightening as it is intoxicating, especially considering how Itachi always seems to want even more of him.
Perhaps what scares Shisui the most is how mutual that feeling seems to be. From the start of their friendship, Shisui’s always been greedy about Itachi, never satisfied with being his closest friend, his most trusted confidant. When it comes to Itachi, he’s always wanted the world.
