did i ever mention that gus and willow's friendship is one of my favorite things in the show? i needed more protective gus *cries*

willow definitely started crushing on hunter after seeing how good friends he'd become with gus ;w;

What's the most meaningful comment you've ever received?

At first I wasn't too sure what my answer to this would be--after all, I've received so many lovely comments over the last few years. But I think the most meaningful would have to be one of the very first comments I ever received. Way back in early 2023, when I was only just dipping my toes into Gravity Falls fanwriting, @milkyboybluewriter commented on my Wendy-centric one-shot. It was a really detailed comment, and moreover I'd JUST finished bingeing his whole 'Second Summer' series--the series that inspired me to start writing for the fandom--and receiving a lovely long comment, from an author I respected so highly, was so exciting and encouraging as a newbie to the fandom.

What's a line or paragraph of yours that you're proud of?

One of my readers described this paragraph from 'But At What Cost' (the TOH Hunger Games fic) as 'the paragraph of all time' and it includes a parallel I'm quite proud of, so I'm putting it here:

[REDACTED] sounds so cheery as she comes over, and kneels over Amity and takes her knife out, that same, awful gleam in her eyes, and Amity suddenly realises why that gleam is so familiar to her. She’s seen that look in the eye of another girl from an outer district, another tribute who should never gotten this far, another girl reaped out of a life of back-breaking work and of never having enough, who knows if she just slits enough throats she’ll never starve again. Amity knows that look, because she’s seen it every year when she watches her mother’s games. 

*name removed because otherwise it would be a huge spoiler

What do you write your stories on? Laptop, phone, paper, etc.

Laptop!

What's your greatest fear as a fanfic writer?

probably that I'm mischaracterising characters and my readers are clicking off my fics because they don't like how I write them. the characters are so important to me, and I want to do them justice.

Enough Goncharov. I want to see more discussion of revolutionary 1928 film The Dancing Cavalier starring Don Lockwood and Lina Lamont (and the uncredited voice of Katherine Selden)

i know people are like “ants could easily overthrow us if tjey wanted to” but i really truly don’t believe that. which of us has nuclear bombs

the problem with watching Glee is that it ruins you for watching other shows. I’ll be watching The Owl House and go ‘oooh, in Sense and Insensitivity, there’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment showing Mattholomule working at The Book Nook, which is cool, because he’s helping with Tibbles’s Azura scam in ASIAS,’ or ‘in Escape of The Palismen, it’s obvious that Willow is more interested in seeing the Grudgby game for the sake of actually watching grudgby, demonstrating her interest in sport’, and then I’ll realise that I’m getting needlessly excited about…consistent characterisation and details, lol.

in turn I have become mildly invested in severance and Star Trek via @letsplaythermalnuclearwar

Ive come up with the phrase "blorbo-in-law" which is a fictional character who isn't, like, YOUR blorbo from YOUR shows but it is your mutual's blorbo who you nevertheless have developed strong opinions about due to long term dash exposure

underrated brother dynamic: older brother who wears a shirt with his name on it and speaks in third person not infrequently, therefore making it impossible NOT to know his name, even when he’s supposed to be more or less anonymous + younger brother who introduced himself by the wrong name for a year for unclear reasons
