I've been wandering in the Carry On fandom for about a year now, and I'm pretty familiar with how things are, I think. I made this blog to finally be present in my fandoms without being recognised in real life, but I still don't know how to share my writing. It's horrible sharing it because I usually don't like people reading it (it's too personal), and now that I joined the AU fest, I think I want to share what I'm working on. (I'm not sure if I should share this anyway, but I will try to not get my work spoiled by telling you my AU)
I have this written:
As Simon pulled off his heavy, mudded shoes, he responded to all of Baz’s questions.
Yes, he walked all the way home with a broken umbrella, which he knew was broken.
Yes, he was ignoring Baz’s messages on purpose.
And, no, he was not okay.
It’s not that he feels bad about Jeremy getting married, not per se. He was not jealous or still heartbroken for the great relationship they didn’t have anymore. It was that it was the second fucking wedding he had been invited to [redacted].
Maybe they knew he didn’t have anyone to take to a wedding and that was orchestrated to mock him.
I had to ask my boyfriend (who introduced me to Carry On) if there were any more characters who were couples. I had already ran out of Penny and Shepard, Agatha and Niamh. I'm a DevNiall truther so they're already married, and Fiona and Nico too. Their love is so strong they are already together! He told me about this fanfic? Rainbow did where Simon had an ex, and I was elated!!!! I loved the concept of Jeremy and I couldn't let that opportunity go to waste.
I'm going to pretend that people will read this (my bf certainly approves of my ideas, but doesn't like tumblr:( ) and that I know what I'm doing.
Thank you for your time!
