I’m writing a fic to get things going again. I can’t decide which one to start on/finish up:
- The Grif/Simmons prompt list from Zuzanna from forever ago.
- A Wash/CT fic about him fighting for her honor after she starts being all sneaky and stuff.
- Doc and Donut approaching Carolina about marrying them all official-like.
- York explaining to Delta what being “guilty” is, and why he feels it while he’s off on his hobo adventures.
- What finally pushes York to break out with Tex, even though Wash is still bonkers and Carolina is still losing her shit.
- A Wash-centric fic that’s titled “Gravedigger”
- Something Church/Tex or Director/Allison (prompt would be nice)
Help me choose? :D

hey roostertumblr! There’s a new episode tonight so let’s have a happy couples’ meme for a change.
That I will doubtlessly turn incredibly sad somehow because being happy is for chumps, but still. I like these. They’re cute.
(via anniedison)
In the midst of all this fandom “wtf” from the recent Red vs Blue episodes, I’d just like to remind everyone that my totally ridiculous headcanons are now fair game in light of the sometimes questionable storytelling choices. They’re downright possible.
- Donut has had months without Simmons slipping his Grimmons fanfiction in his journal. He fears his talent of writing gay porn in his sleep has left him.
- In his grief, he goes back to what he knows - farming. He and Sister have a small cottage built of old armor cases and Lopez is their electronic butler who lives in their computer console and hates everything. They totally cuddle all the time and play house. And throw raves in the old bases. Donut has two fields of corn behind the house.
- Donut has started a sitcom, making a camera with the parts that would have made Lopez a new body. It’s a cooking show, filmed in front of a live, loud audience of Sister.
- Sister has started her own advice column, “How To Make Best Friends in the Army with Your Sworn Enemy Who Has Totally Sweet Armor”. It’s been a huge success, and she thinks most of the write-in letters are actually Grif trying to make friends with Simmons.
- Lopez spends 95% of his processing power correcting the grammar on Donut and Sister’s blog posts.
- Sister and Donut spent three months trying to put Sheila in the computer. They then became the two witnesses of the robot wedding they helped orchestrate. Lopez was so happy he now only wishes they’d die quickly, rather than slow and tortuously.
- Lopez and Sheila read bedtime stories of robot rulers to Sister every night.
- Junior can’t decide who was supposed to be his babysitter, so he only stayed in the canyon for a few days before trying to go off and find Tucker.
- He came back and now lives int he cottage and eats corn stalks when Donut isn’t paying attention.
Yep, all of those are plausible.
Because in my head, it’s better.
Hey, roostertumblr. What do you think about making tonight a fic and headcanon kind of night?
I’m fixing to do some writing, and I have a boatload of awesome prompts in my inbox and I feel like we haven’t had one of these in a while. Would be fun!
I need to go cook soon, but it’ll be nice to have a fic/art/idea party :)
Guys.
Why are we freaking out over RvB Wash possibly having blond hair.
When Firefly Wash most definitely has blond hair.
This just furthers my theory.
Maybe RvB Wash dyed it blond for cosplay as Firefly Wash.
Can you imagine how happy Washington was that his nickname got shortened to “Wash”?
More importantly: why did it take me a week to realize this?
Roostertumblr! A question!
I have several AUs to pursue now, and I figured I’d put it up to a vote because indecisiveness, man. I have a story or two for each but I can’t sit down and decide which to do, so let me know which you want?
- Nem’s Sandtrap AU - Wash meets CT, still alive in sandtrap, and they fight. A lot. Sometimes with fists. Mostly with words.
- York’s alive AU - Blueteam!Wash meets York. Still alive. Only slightly not a hallucination.
- Allison AU - Wash post-insanity but pre-Recollection gets a few weeks of leave, and runs into the real Allison.
- Wash and York apocalypse now AU? - Wash and York being dicks. Mostly to each other. Zombies might make guest appearances. More stuff based off of Zombie Run.
- Lopez is Lambda AU - Yeah, I don’t really have a solid line of thought for this BUT COME ON GUYS LOPEZ COULD TOTALLY BE LAMBDA. I’m sure there’s a story in there somewhere. Probably something sad.
- Tucker as
Agent United States of LoveFreelancer: Just as ridiculous as it sounds. - RvB/Community crossover: Yeah, just me shipping North/Annie.
I think that’s it. So. Comment and cast a vote, and help me be more decisive!
(Also I know Fanta voted for zombies, had to repost so it could be a question rather than a text post.)
bozuckerman-deactivated20121109 asked: My perfect Reeberry, I've returned from looking at RvB writing niches. I'm quite happy with the results. At first, I'll admit to being disappointed that there wasn't like, one big huge ginormous resource of every RvB-writer ever, but you know what. It's better this way. There's so much crap out there, and the tumblr-blogs and AO3 archive are quite singular in that they house skilled writers. So I'm quite happy now. :D Will maybe think of joining in the fun!
Yes, please join in the fun! (And please use that greeting from now until forever of all time. You flatter me so much <3) Yeah, I think the quality of ao3 and rtumblr is pretty darn awesometastic, and, like you, I’m ok with not having a giant directory to every writer ever. There’s something nice to be said about being in our own club (even if we happily welcome anyone who shows a passing fancy of interest - it’s not an exclusive club, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!)
bozuckerman-deactivated20121109 asked: Ree! I was wondering if there was a fan-writer's tumblr for RvB? I mean, exclusively writing. Like a coalition of authors and readers of RvB stuff. If there was anyone to ask I thought it would be you! Actually there's a bunch of people I could have asked, but I like to bother you...tis fun...
You say “bother” like I’m not actually ridiculously happy to get messages from you in my inbox…
There’s a fic archive I had going for a while, but busyness and lack of life consistency has caused me to fall way behind on it. I basically reblog fics that people have written. It’s roosterfic.tumblr.com and one of these days I’ll queue up a bunch of posts again (I try to do them chronologically, so it takes me a bit to hunt things down and tag them properly).
Mumblybee has started awesome-inspiring-shit.tumblr.com which is more prompts for creativity rather than just for RvB or just for writing, but it’s a nice interaction where you can take them as RvB prompts.
Other than that, there’s not really an organized community - I post things and a handful of people will always read them and like or reblog or comment or whatever, but it’s not as organized, just a loose feeling of fandom and fanfic appreciation. I’m sure delkios, mumblybee, completelysane, laughingalonewithrvb, and other tumblr writers have the same experience - ichidou and runawayballista (and more, I’m sure) both post their fics to ao3, so they might have more of a network there? I’ve been trying to move over but then aforementioned problems with organization and everything, haha.
KNOCK KNOCK.: In the crowd →
I often feel like a don’t really fit in with a certain group. Like the nerdfighters, or RoosterTumblr.
Well, I mean, I do, I just feel that people don’t really need me there. Like they’ve already got a guy for what I do.
Eh. Everyone feels lonely or useless. It’s the…
yea, but when i do insert myself into that slot, it feels like i have nothing to contribute. there are almost no contributions of any sort from my end. it’s all “hey look thats cool” *reblog* but nothing is especially added. i guess what im trying to say is that if i disappeared, almost no one would notice. or thats how i feel personally.
I can definitely relate.
Sometimes I feel bad because I’m not writing with the same frequency as when I just started, or that my blog has shifted focus, etc etc. Like it was mentioned, everyone feels lonely and useless at times - it’s been much more rare after I clung to people like Emma and Nem and Zuzanna until they accepted being my friend (for ever and ever, haha), but there’s still an inherent self-doubt that’s hard to get rid of that everyone has.
The slot you occupy in roostertumblr is the slot you made for yourself by “joining”, by saying you liked Red vs Blue, by appreciating the same things and by being you. No one can ever take that, or replace it, and if you leave, that empty space will always be there. It won’t be washed over or forgotten.
Also, “contributions”… those are not a measure of merit at all, your contribution is being in our buddy club! And personally, I love and cherish every note I ever get, and to hear you who so often swing by my neck of the woods (including my inbox <3) and makes my day better just by doing so say that I wouldn’t notice if you stop makes me really sad. Because I honestly, truly would. And I love having you in my buddy club.
Point is: you’re interesting. You’re important. We all are, and we should be happy and proud of this and never let ourselves forget it.
Hey roostertumblr!
Can I ask for a vaguely self-centered poll?
Which one of my fics do you remember most? As in, which one was the first one to come to mind after reading my question?
I’m just really curious, so I figured I’d ask!
Can I ask RoosterTumblr for a quick favor?
I hate to interrupt Trailer Frenzy 2012
but
I wanna draw you.
All of you.
In a giant, candid, family photo.
So if it wouldn’t be too much trouble could you possibly reblog or message with
- How you would like to be referred to (username/url, actual name, nickname, etc.)
- Team affiliation
-You can be purple/neutral/green
- Or freelencer colored.
- You can wear swag from other RT shows. Like Achievement Hunter!
- Basic description on how you look or how you would like to look.
- What you are doing in the picture. Like drawing, writing, watching Rvb or any of RT’s other equally amazing shows, playing an instrument, or simply enjoying your surroundings, etc.
(optional)
- Any special requests. I’ll make it work even if you’re a filthy red.
- If you would like to sit next to a certain person in the picture let me know.
I would actually like to get as much people in this as possible.
Please and thank you.
This is awesome! :)
- Ree!
- Blue team is the best team
- How I look is all over this tag: hey look it’s me. I’d love to be wearing a roostertumblr shirt, too (I’m going to get one as soon as I have moneys, honest!)
- Totally
molestingembracing Emma! Because wife. Also AJ, because other wife! Also I feel like the three of us should be embracing over some kind of art/writing notebook thing, too :P But seriously, the embracing is the important part~
Man, I can’t wait to see this :)
hey roostertumblr
give me good convincing reasons why Lopez can’t be an AI?
I mean, I guess Sheila was just FILISS or however you spell it.
But.
I’m still unconvinced. He’s a bit too not-robotic? Even if he’s not an AI… he could be something like Sheila?
Hey guys
you know what would be cool?
if you could send a friend request to this guy, who will never accept you because he has a thing about wanting more friend requests than actual friends.
And challenged me to get him 100 more friends.
So if you guys could help me out here, oh lovely tumblr masses and followers…
because, well
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED
soldiertex replied to your post: RvB: Roostertumblr PSA
Oh Ree didn’t we tell you? RoosterChat is going to act this out on a call! c:
WHAT?
WHAT WAIT WHAT?
I don’t think I knew that!!!! D:
Oh my god. When? How? where do I need to be and when and this needs to be recorded and oh my god!
RvB: Roostertumblr PSA
Carolina: Hi. I’m Agent Carolina from the popular webseries, Red vs Blue.
Wash: And I’m Agent Washington.
Carolina: We here at Red vs Blue have noticed a trend on the blog site tumblr.
Wash: A trend characterized by apparently common phrases we didn’t know existed. Phrases such as [chart] “All the feelings”, “dying right now”, and “I used to have a heart, then I joined roostertumblr”.
Carolina: These seem to have been brought on by various pieces of fiction about the characters of Red vs Blue.
Grif: [off camera] Fanfiction.
Carolina: …What?
Grif: [off camera] It’s fanfiction, and it’s stupid.
Simmons: [off camera] Yeah, and also, no one in this canyon has ever written any. Ever.
Grif: [off camera] …What?
Wash: God dammit! I can’t have ONE thing to myself.
Grif: [off camera] You asked me to film it, did you also expect me to do it quietly? Anyway, the reason fanfiction is stupid is that it takes so much time. You can spend that time doing things like not working, eating, sleeping, not working…
Simmons: [off camera] Maybe Donut wrote some, but no one else here has ever written any. Ever.
