I have just now, exactly in this moment, realized your name is probably meant to be pronounced future "goose-t"

I am ashamed.

How were you pronouncing it before, fogno? 😂 I have a goose as my background!

In which Neve thinks she might be morosexual.

Rook: Hey Neve, what kind of animal is the pink panther?

Neve, already taking off her clothes: Rook you’re so fucking stupid.

Bestieeeee

Share your favorite kiss scene from a war of hearts.

What's the angstiest idea you've ever come up with?

What makes a fic 'successful' in your opinion?

My bestie from the midwestie 🫂

1 -My favourite AWoH kiss scene is the first kiss Kyra and Shads share after the battle at the grove. There's all the tension with the battle and stuff with Lae'zel and Minthara and the whole 'will they/won't they' and then Shadowheart's scared she's going to lose Tav and Tav breaks her ribs and is (sort of but not really) dependent on Shads. They they go fishing and Tav teaches her to shoot a bow and its this whole build up.

I also wrote it in one evening just before Valentines day last year (omg how is it a year old)

2 - Funny I think I sent you this same question.

I can't tell you. (well I can, but not on here - and actually I've told you already) But recently I came up with an idea for another NevexRook fic where Neve is in an established relationship with someone else when she meets Rok and chaos ensues. I love making Neve feel things.

3- this is a tough one. AWoH is objectively my most successful, if we're just going by stats. But being in the community, I've had more conversations about Hand on a Dagger and She's Just a Seat Filler. People seem excited about updated for those two and they voice their opinions to me directly or speak about it when I'm not there and that feels better than the numbers on AWoH

Love u comet ❤️

2. Which of your fics is your pride and joy?

17. What is something you recently felt proud of in your writing?

32. A character you enjoy making suffer. (It's Tav, isn't it)

Fogno with the jumpscare!

Here's me thinking I'm the ghoost.

2. Why do you make me pick between things? First Neve and Shadowheart and now my fic babies!

Jokes aside, I love them all equally. AWoH was my first time writing again in 8 years. Kyra in this fic is my 'canon Kyra', and I love her story so much. It's also like 160k words long and the last time I checked it had 16k hits, so stats wise - it's towering over the others. But it's also a year old.

Hand on a Dagger was the first fic I wrote that didn't follow the canon. I also explored the darker/more morally grey aspects of my characters. Hand on a Dagger feels more like my fic, as opposed to AWoH, because I came up with the plot and the character arcs. Out of the two, Hand on a Dagger probably pips AWoH.

But - then we have She's Just a Seat Filler - my newest fic baby, but quickly becoming one of my favourites. I'm giving myself a lot more freedom with this one. With Hand on a Dagger and AWoH I'd always try to set myself targets of 'I'll write this many words' or 'publish the next chapter by this day'. I'm also exploring new characters, new motivations, new dynamics, new angst. I love it.

If you're going to make me choose though - Hand on a Dagger

17 - But Hand on a Dagger and She's Just a Seat Filler are both at very angsty points in their journeys and I love the tension I'm building in them both. I think especially in Hand on a Dagger with how Tav responds to being in the cloister and the decisions she's forced to make. I feel like she's constantly teetering on a knife's edge. That's also how I'm writing Neve in SJaSF (but in a very different way). I love building tension, and I feel like I'm good at it?

32 - It's not actually 👀

Tav suffers, sure, but she suffers in a 'greater good' sort of way (i hope). Her suffering is complex and born of morals and love and lust and her darkness vs her lightness, etc. There's so much background to Tav's suffering that it drives the story forward in a meaningful way.

The character I love making suffer most is Neve because who wouldn't want a woman to almost cry at the thought of being in love with you? (in a non-problematic way) Tav's suffering is much more of an external suffering, if that makes sense? But Neve's is purely internal and of her own creation. I love the angst of it.

Love u fogno ❤️
