my life has no meaning aka Shameless US fic

[romancandles]

I wrote Shameless fic because I have totally lost control of my life. Right now I just live and breathe this pairing and it's a good thing you can't wear out avi files because I have watched every single scene these two have like eight million times. H E L P. This is not the story I set out to write at all. I wanted all blowjobs, all the time, and

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHAT CAN I SAY THAT I HAVE NOT ALREADY SAID lol omg I've read this so many times already I practically have it memorised. YES IT'S THAT GOOD THAT IT IS WORTH MEMORISING.

Ugh firstly just, I love the flow and the pacing of this. All I ever want for these life ruiners is for them to delight in each others existence (omg I am such a secret sap) but have Mickey always be a little reticent, a little hesitant, but he just likes Ian so much he can't fucking help himself and he gets worn down and ughghgghh THIS FIC GIVES ME THAT. BOYSSSSSSSS. WHAT DO I NORMALLY DO WITH MY HANDSSSSSSS. Fucking Beatles songs, okay. I want to hold your hand, you fucking douchebag. Ughhhhh

[romancandles]

THAT GIF IS AN ALLEGORY FOR MY LIFE RIGHT NOW: SHAMELESS IS IAN, TOTALLY ADORABLE AND IRRESISTIBLE WITH HIS STUPID FRECKLES, AND I AM MICKEY, HELPLESSLY CHARMED AND WONDERING HOW THE FUCK I ENDED UP LIKE THIS

[underhand_glory]

youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME

ugh mandy and lip in this I WANT TO WEEP you treat every character with absurd tenderness and IAN THE HEARTBREAKER, ALWAYS AND FOREVER. mickey's insecurity is great, because we haven't really got enough of him in canon, where all my investment in the ship comes from wanting ian to be happy. this fic shifts that a little.

this genuinely FEELS like summer, smells like it too (that makes no sense) and high school ugh it's lovely and i will be so mad when the show doesn't do it like this. stop making me ship this more than i do i want to stay sane about this show unlike SOME PEOPLE

(also lol i read this while listening to kpop for some reason which made for an interesting if contradictory experience)

as always, i love your shit forever

[romancandles]

IAN IS SUCH A HEARTBREAKER AND HE DOES NOT EVEN REALIZE. What is he doing, being nice and sweet and ultimately so obvious and selfish. IAN GALLAGHER GET OFF MY SCREEN. I'm really, really happy you liked it and, yes, I know I have so many ideas for where their relationship should go and I'm so depressed that the show will probably kill my happiness for the sake of drama.

ALSO YOU NEED TO GET MOAR OBSESSED PLEASE. WHAT IS REASON. WHAT IS A LIFE.

Thank you, dear!

OMGGGGGGGGGG I AM GOING TO LIVE IN DENIAL FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE I know this is probably true but. but. but.

"unlike SOME PEOPLE"

O.

wat

u

talking

about.

[shecrows]

Ian doesn’t touch Mickey again, which is good because he thinks he’d snap and accidentally behead Ian with the adrenaline in his veins right now. He grins and trips over a tree root. Mickey laughs at him and thinks, I want to hold your hand, you fucking douchebag.I WANT. TO. DIE. LEGITIMATELY TEARED UP AT THIS LINE, OKAY. TEARED. THE FUCK. UP. I HATE YOU BY WHICH I MEAN I LOVE YOU AND THE THINGS YOU DO WITH WORDS EVEN IF THE THINGS YOU DO WITH WORDS MAKE ME TEAR. THE. FUCK. UP

[redinteriors]

CAN I JUST ECHO EVERYTHING CAMILLE SAID PLEASE OH MY GOD. because i feel like my comment didn't even begin to encompass how wonderful everything is in this fic and why i love it so much. (i probably liveblogged it now that i think of it but I FEEL THE NEED TO MAKE IT KNOWN HERE TOO.)

camille i hate you and your way with words as well omg but basically all her favourite lines my favourite lines the build and that thunderstorm analogy (h8. u. camille. talking about perfection.) ugh. THISSSSSSSSSS pretty much sums it up.

(i am actually going to sleep now.)

[romancandles]

Camille can I just take this comment and weep into it please. I don't even think you realize how nervous I was about posting this because the language is so conversational, but I couldn't imagine writing a story from Mickey's point of view that was any other way. He's just so bottom-line and to the point. But I was so worried that you'd read it and find it too plain.

ALSO I AM SO HAPPY YOU MENTIONED SUMMER. When I made Sisi read it for like the fourth time, I was all, "OKAY BUT DOES IT FEEL HOT?" Ugh, and that the pacing worked out without being too weird and just everything in your comment made me so ridiculously happy so thank you so, so, so much. ♥

ALSO LIP. Can Mickey and Lip just sit around and smoke and verbally spar and talk about how younger siblings are basically the best and worst things to ever happen.

[shecrows]

I ACTUALLY HAVE A SOFT SPOT FOR CONVERSATIONAL. when it's done well, which of course with you is a given, and with a character who fits the choice, it can be so spot on and sharp and hilarious. AND THIS WAS ALL OF THOSE THINGS.

Can Mickey and Lip just sit around and smoke and verbally spar and talk about how younger siblings are basically the best and worst things to ever happen.

YES PLEASE OH MY GOD THIS IS ALL I WANT IN THE MOTHERFUCKING WORLD.

can you, me and sisi just be the de facto mickey, lip and ian (respectively) of the fifteen person strong shameless fandom or.

[kidsxchemicals]

Everything about this is just gorgeous.

[romancandles]

Thank you so much!

[romancandles]

I plan to! I also need to comment on your story BUT ALSO YOU NEED TO POST THE NEXT PART (btw I'm morgandhi over on Tumblr, so this isn't totally out of the blue - we've spoken before!).
