Do you ever just know that someone is lying about something and you have no actual proof but you know you know in your soul that they’re lying but if you brought it up you’d just look like such a dick cause you have nothing to back your claim but they’re fucking lying and you know they’re lying?

Just tried writing a fic for the first time, thinking that I, too, could pump out a 300k masterpiece with a slow burn and devastating character study that everyone would read at 2am on a weekday. I got through 500 words and decided to close the computer and eat a hot dog. Y’all writers are really out there doing it, huh. That’s crazy. Thank you

once again at a bar table full of people older than me

[imapadfootkin]

isn’t that all we need though

[imapadfootkin]

i love how you’re just never wrong eyra

here’s your friendly reminder that president snow is not your uwu murder daddy. he orchestrated the deaths of close to two thousand children, oppressed the citizens of panem and went as far as forcing the children who survived the massacre of their peers—often by being forced into killing them themselves—into becoming glorified prostitutes. there’s a lot to say about fandom’s obsession over villainous characters but if i see a single one of y’all simp over snow just because tom blyth is hot it’ll be on fucking sight.

Remus would so not care about James and Sirius being attached to the hip while he and Sirius are dating. Like have u met that dude every time in canon he mentions James he’s talking him up. Remus adored James. Remus would come home to James n Sirius cuddling in bed and he’d be so happy bc not only is Sirius there but James too!!! Absolute win.

I’m a top Regulus truther because there’s not enough of James: 1) being showered in unconditional love until he can’t take anymore 2) being told ‘no’ for once in his life and put in his place because let’s be honest, he’s got some arrogance issues. This man grew up spoiled beyond reason

Like if someone’s a brat there, it’s James. Regulus was brought up to be polite and composed. Quiet and observant. Never to flaunt, that’s tacky and the Blacks are all about poise. James?? POTTER??? Tell him no, he’s throwing a fit. (Then comes Regulus and has him complying with a look)

2. what's your total ao3 word count?

99,772

3. what fandoms do you write for?

HP and a whole host of ships. but i made a certain pact for 2024 that will change things up a lil......

4. what are your top 5 fics by kudos

Fake It Til You Make It! 

not the kind of weather (to be dancing in your sweater) 

barely on my mind 

book smart 

say red 

actually so crazy that book smart is #4? i had no idea that many people read reg/remus......

5. do you respond to comments? why or why not?

yeah i do! i get a reasonable number of comments, so it's easy to do and i like to thank people for engaging with my work. but i'm never bothered if an author doesn't respond. not everyone likes that back and forth!

6. what is a fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

i guess this hell has the angstiest ending? not to spoil, bc i haven't posted the whole thing. but none of my fics are angsty, really!

7. what is a fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

they're all happy endings. i'm an HEA bitch when it comes to ship fic.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

literally not even once lmfao it’s hard to be this cool and talented and popular and funny 🤷🏻‍♀️

9. do you write smut? if so, what kind?

hell yeah. i started writing it to get more comfortable with sex, and i ended up finding it SO fun. i like that it's basically an action scene? and i like figuring out how certain scenes would theoretically go. idk what kind it is though! y'all tell me ;)

10. do you write crossovers? what's the craziest one you've written?

i don't, and i wouldn't. i don't like them.

11. have you ever had a fic stolen?

nope! and really, you'd have to copy SO directly to steal a fic. like be so fucking serious...it's fanfic...it's derivative by definition...so as long as no one is copy-pasting my shit, 'steal' what you want. we're building this house together!

12. have you ever had a fic translated?

yep, i think fake it is translated to russian?

13. have you ever co-written a fic before?

i haven't but i dream of co-writing with the squad @colgatebluemintygel @pancakehouse on a christmas fic......maybe they could convince me to not be a grinch!

14. what's your all time favourite ship?

draco and harry. those are my BABIES!

15. what's a wip you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

i don't do WIPs! if it's on my AO3, there's a complete fic sitting on my laptop. which means that yes this hell is behind on updates ONLY because i'm lazy about posting.............oops

16. what are your writing strengths?

the sentence! i loveeee the sentence.

17. what are your writing weaknesses?

also the sentence lmfao i get too bogged down in perfection and will obsess over one line instead of moving the fuck on

18. thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

stay away from google translate and get a native (or fluent, i guess) speaker to help you! i've seen some messy french out there lmfao

19. first fandom you wrote for?

i wrote part of an attack on titan fic a few years ago and never posted it! so if that counts, then aot. if we're only counting fics i've posted, then fake it was first!

20. favourite fic you've written?

answered this earlier today for another game but it's a toss-up between fake it and wolf moon <3

ok ummmmm lemme tag my buddies @pancakehouse @colgatebluemintygel @mblematic

does anyone want to. tell me something nice that happened to them today

[imapadfootkin]

he’s so right though my first experience with weed was indeed provided by my older cousin

my 12 year old brother just told me he’s tried a vape before and so i was like damn you started younger than me i smoked my first cig at 14 and he was like. cigarette??!! and i was like “yeah.. when i was your age vapes weren’t as popular” and now i feel positively fucking ancient

[imapadfootkin]

THANK YOU holy shit

i don’t think sirius actually is very dramatic at all. the only times i can remember him being “dramatic” is in the shack in poa and that was him being so close to the revenge he’s been thinking about for 12 years in torture hell. and his reaction to finding out snape stopped harry’s occlumency lessons which was actually very important and someone did need to go talk to him about it. i don’t think either thing constitutes as being dramatic given the circumstances. he’s very calm given everything he’s been through actually.

i just think it’s interesting that as he’s become more feminine in fandom spaces he’s also become more dramatic and hysterical
