#(not tagging what the other is a crossover of cuz I don’t want to lol)

[ausi-is-furry]

A couple I Hope So crossover fan art I did semi-recently, never posted them so I’m posting them now.

First one is: Diamond about to beat up a certain ableist abuser. Second one is: Guy who can speak fluent grunt (and scurrier but there’s no meerkat emoji).

Diamond and Hope belong to @ihopesocomic

Intro 🧡

guess I might as well do an intro

diagnosed adhd software engineer here (🩷💜💙, coming to you from the Rocky Mountains (where rich people's empty ski homes are literally everywhere and driving up costs….. pls send help)

writing stuff + ao3 link

just finished a canon-adjacent story about the main kids. it’s a short story that I had so much fun writing :) and I hope to focus on more short stories in the future.

also doing a south park/good place crossover because why not

wrote this thing called "the cultish conundrum" which... exists... (planning to rewrite it someday when i git gud™️) (wrote this when I knew NOTHING of fandom so I did try to be canon-compliant but knew nothing of creative writing when I first started, so I hope to revisit to rewrite it to be actually… good one day lol)

Also if you’re an ao3 writer of your own and want me to kudos/comment just lmk!! I know this isn’t an excuse but my adhd makes it so bad for me to read others works but if I’m instructed to I genuinely love it and want to support y’all as from what I’ve seen, there’s SO many talented SP writers out there that I genuinely want to support so badly but am literally so bad at committing when there’s so many choices lmao

quick stats:

mid 20s and fresh out of college (studied computer sci so bear w me if I sound too tech bro; I won’t be offended if you call me out for doing something wrong as I not only don’t get offended easily, but acknowledge I have no idea what the fuck I’m doing since literally the only time I’ve had social media in the past is when I would look at tumblr in middle school cuz it allowed porn it im being real with you 👀)

9w8 ISTP (took the official tests in college tho acknowledge it’s only slightly scientific lol)

ex-mormon who served a mission (emphasis on the ��ex’- 🫡 🥲 god the stories I have lmfao)

works in tech and works from home

builds legos and games most nights (i wanna learn new hobbies besides this, hence the whole trying to learn how to write thing. pls bear with me- i BS’d my way through English classes in college lol)

so yeah!! south park has basically been my comfort show/emotional support media for as long as i can remember. like it's literally been keeping me sane through… everything

absolutely down to chat about anything!! just use my ask box or dm if you're 18+ (minors please no dm). This blog will likely stay sfw, but it may occasionally not be! I’ll tag when it’s not, but this is your warning now. i promise i'm super chill and just here to vibe with other cool humans who don't tolerate any transphobic/racist/etc behavior. I don’t ever do social media but just want to connect with others in the fandom so here I am 👋not here for any drama and will respect ships in the fandom though i am partial to style (what got me to look into the fandom space in the first place)

also I like writing meta posts but just know I do it all for fun and that I completely understand and respect that my opinions are just that- opinions. at the end of the day it’s just a silly show and that’s the fun of fandom- being able to share these

[thebigqueer]

omg new year new fun tag game. ty for the tag!! this looks fun

1. how many works do you have on AO3?

49 currently but i have deleted or orphaned some so it could be more than that

2. what’s your total AO3 word count?

187454

3. what fandoms do you write for?

only riordanverse. i’ve considered writing for adventure time but i just don’t have enough passion for it

4. what are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Soft Touches in the Darkness (valgrace one shot)

moonlight (valgrace one shot)

Promise? (solangelo one shot)

Lost Voices (solangelo tartarus fic)

Secrets Uncovered in the Firelight (solangelo one shot)

5. do you respond to comments?

no cuz i’m shy 😭 but i do sometimes if someone’s comment is particularly exciting or i like a take. i do always always appreciate the comments though they make me happy <333

6. fic with angstiest ending?

hmm… i would say Bottle the World (arcane au valgrace snippet) or Flaming Eyes (leo & jason)

7. fic with happiest ending?

probably New Year, Old Beginnings (valgrace secret santa au).

8. do you get hate on fics?

no not really. & i’m thankful for that!!

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

not publicly i don’t 🤭 but if you were to look through my docs there’s probably like one sexy piece with my ocs. idk if it counts as smut cuz they don’t actually do anything... it’s just toxic lesbian horny rage nothing really happens lol

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

i don’t really but i do have an arcane au. it’s not really a crossover i just kind of made up a plot for pjo characters based on the end of arcane lol. (arcane au snippets) WAIT I JUST REMEMBERED someone once asked me to do a (crackfic) she-ra & pjo crossover but i can't find the link unfortunately...

11. have you ever had a fic stolen?

i don’t think so

12. have you ever had a fic translated?

nah

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

yes but weve only posted 2 before. all the other co-written fics never got finished unfortunately

14. what’s your all time favorite ship?

honestly i don't have one i think it really depends on my mood and what im reading at the moment.

15. what’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

ARCANE AU 😭 MY POOR ARCANE AU IM SORRY 😭 it's not that i wont write it its just that its never going to be coming out in full its all gonna be in one shots because i have 0 energy. also i had this one "immortal" au i tried writing a while ago and i still like the concept just not the characters i used at the time but i dont think ill write it again

16. what are your writing strengths?

i write a lot (as in my word counts are high per fic) but i dont really consider it a strength because i don't think length equates to the quality of a fic. a fic is good even if its short or long, and i like short fics more beacuse i feel like im feeling just as much in a shorter amount of time but other people might prefer long fics. its about what you write about and how you do it, not about length. ive also been told im pretty good at integrating introspection with dialogue but idk.

17. what are your writing weaknesses?

also plot. it's like the fics that have a really dense and thought-out plot are the ones i never get to finish cuz i get too intimmidated after i finish planning them. i'll always plan them out in bullet points and then even when im almost done planning them out i just give up at the last minute and then never get them done lol. maybe one day i'll finally write something. i think if the plot isn't too dense then it's better off

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

i think it's cool. i don't think i've done it yet but maybe i will one day.

19. first fandom you wrote for?

percy jackson. it was a solangelo fic in first person on wattpad 💀 WAITT SCRATCH THAT. when i was in 2nd grade me & bff at the time LOVED the rainbow magic books so i think we wrote something that was similar in plot to that. that was a banger series

20. favorite fic you’ve written?

i really liked "Stay. For Once." (lost trio fic) because it was my first time writing something for the lost trio and even though looking back i might change some things i think i really loved writing about them & thinking about their dynamic. i also really liked "Stars Bursting Across His Lips" (valgrace one-shot) not because i actually like the fic itself that much but it was really fun to write cuz i think driving on a highway at night is the sexiest most erotic most romantic thing anyone can do. i dont think i have a true favorite though.

20 questions for fic writers

tagged by @mrv3000

1. how many works do you have on Ao3? 195

2. what's your total Ao3 word count? 403 068

3. what fandoms do you write for? percy jackson and the olympians, heroes of olympus, trials of apollo, kane chronicles, magnus chase and the gods of asgard, nevermoor, her royal highness, roots of chaos, x-men (films mostly but some comic bleedover), avatar the last airbender, the legend of korra, the kyoshi novels, marvel cinematic universe, bbc ghosts, a song of ice and fire, doctor who, the locked tomb, star wars (prequels mostly), spiderman comics, rosewood chronicles, derry girls, dc (vaguely, comics)

4. what are your top five fics by kudos?

rot with all the burnouts in the cell (dc marvel crossover)

oh my brother, my brother, my brother (who have you become in the wake of all that's happened?) (star wars timetravel)

breezeblocks bricking up my heart (my take on a dadneto reveal)

water into wine (five times percy was the son of dionysus and one time he was the son of poseidon)

5. do you respond to comments? i do my best

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

that's relative and i have so many fics that this probably isn't accurate but by my own measure it's probably don't want to fight the tide (nevermoor fic, being immortal sucks)

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

again that's relative but i'd say there's a million roads to rediscover (pjo/hoo five times jason missed his sister, and one time he saw her again)

8. Do you get hate on fics?

occasionally i get like smarmy comments like one on a certain fic that the timeline didn't line up (it did + i had page references + it was tagged canon divergence anyway) but not really

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

i have one so ig lesbian threesomes??

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

i write so many crossovers i love putting characters in situations. probably rot with all the burnouts in the cell since it involved a ton of drama

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

not that i'm aware of

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

i think one of them but i can't remember which one. (technically this is studying) i'm trying to translate a few of my drabbles into scots gaelic

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

in part like it got started and then i got ghosted before anything else happened

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

the couple i've written the most about is a tie between morridence, fierrochase, and jadie, but i'd say i get the most feelings about ruegard

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Great the Roman is coming up to its third year anniversary this month and i only hit the halfway point a few months ago so we'll see

16. What are your writing strengths?

lesbians. probably emotional stuff if i'm being serious

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

plot. its part of the reason i only do oneshots about 1k-3k but i'd like to work on more big fics. part of the reason was i started a bunch back in 2021 and i'm still working on two of them

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

one of my fics has some dialogue in scots gaelic but i cannot remember for the life of me if its supposed to be 'S ann or 'S e form and its haunting me

19. First fandom you wrote for?

fun fact: i originally wrote on wattpad and published a fierrochase fic on the release day of the hammer of thor. it's called fierrochase and it Sucks but it might actually be the first one ever which is fun if not slightly haunting

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

well you don't know me. but i know you it's a asoiaf time travel fic from the pov of people who don't know. i feel like i really pushed myself with characterisation on it

Fanfic Writer 20 Questions!

I was tagged by the lovely @lumiereandcogsworth​!! Thanks dearie!! :D

1. how many works do you have on ao3? 146 and counting!

2. what’s your total ao3 word count? 596,943

3. how many fandoms have you written for and what are they? A lot. Too many to name all of them here.

4. what are your top five fics by kudos?

The Broken Doll - my Grandmaster/Loki fix-it fic

A Word - a barisi fic

Runts Make Petty Kings - my Loki/Jane Foster epic space adventures fic, which I’m still pretty proud of

Plus One - another barisi fic

Let’s Hope This Goes Swimmingly - and another barisi fic

5. do you respond to comments? why or why not? I try to! Especially lately I’ve been trying to make it a habit to respond. Sometimes I don’t because either I simply don’t know what to say or I see the comment, but don’t have the energy to respond and i promise myself i will later but then i forget LOL

6. what’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending? I’ve written a few really angsty endings in my time, but maaaaaan Violet Skies really has to take the cake. Like, the ending was so angsty, I decided to write two sequels just so the story didn’t end on that note 😂 No other fic has ever compelled me to do that before

7. do you write crossovers? Bitch, that’s all I write 95% of the time these days! XD I’ve only written 2 non-crossover fics in the past year. Yes, i know I have a problem

8. have you ever received hate on a fic? I have, but it’s very rare and frankly only one particular time popped into my head from the past 5 years. There are benefits to writing niche crack crossover fics hardly anybody reads i guess

9. do you write smut? if so, what kind? YEEEEEP idk, go look at the tags on my E-rated fics and find out 😏

10. have you ever had a fic stolen? Yes, one of my older fics was uploaded to a website I had never heard of without my permission and honestly, I have no idea what happened after I filed my complaint

11. have you ever had a fic translated? Yep! My two Star Wars merman fics Horizon and Submerge were translated into Russian with my permission :D

12. have you ever co-written a fic before? Not really. I’ve had detailed discussions about ideas that I later wrote into fic or was written into fic by the person I was talking with, but nothing officially collaborated on

13. what’s your all-time favorite ship? (LA) Jafar/Prince Adam. not to sound like a narcissist, but it’s such a me ship. Cuz I started shipping it under very specific circumstances that I, personally, was going through and provided a very personal, safe space during a time I was still getting over being in a less than kind larger fandom. It’s a culmination of pieces of other fandoms I’ve been in over the years and am still in. I’m very protective of it, but I also get very excited when other people show interest. If you’re interested, please tell me! Please write and draw them! I need more people in this dinghy of a ship XD

14. what’s a wip that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will? Probably my Jafar/Adam Absolute Boyfriend/I’m Your Man AU. I started writing it around the time I’m Your Man premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival and Dan Stevens was doing a lot of promo for it and naturally it got me thinking about robot boyfriend!Adam which reminded me of that manga I read years ago. I would love to finish this AU someday. There’s a lot of fun ideas I put into it and I like what I wrote so far. But I reached a point with the fic where I didn’t know where I wanted to take it and I’ve been stumped ever since

15. what are your writing strengths? I’ve been told I’m good at writing angst and world building. And smut. Apparently I’m very good at writing smut lol

16. what are your writing weaknesses? Sometimes I’ll word things weirdly because I tend to write as my brain is thinking and y’know sometimes we don’t think in complete sentences or we think in concepts and those concepts don’t translate into a full sentence as easily as you picture it. It’s why I feel like my descriptions can get choppy. Also, I think I use unnecessary conjunctions and sequencers too much

17. what are your thoughts on writing dialogue in another language? I think it’s fine as long as it’s done well and not over-used

18. what was the first fandom you ever wrote for? Pokémon. i was 6 and i wrote self-insert fic. it was very bad but i remember being very proud of myself for using the word “sighed”

19. what’s your favorite fic you’ve ever written? Violet Skies. I put so much into that fic. I got through some pretty dark times with that fic at my back. I don’t know if it’s my best fic, but it’s the one I put the most love into, which is saying a lot because (as sappy as this sounds) I try to write all my fics with love. I try to put my energy into writing characters and ideas that I love, or else what’s the point? write for love

20. who do you tag? Only if you want to <3 @pigsinablanketfort @zebsfloppyears @thatpratdragonlady @xavantina @loflight501 aaaand anybody else who wants to do it can consider themselves tagged!! :D

How many works do you have on AO3?

15. I very much take 2 year long hiatuses, re-emerge to dump my new hyperfixation OC on everyone, and then depart under mysterious circumstances.

What’s your total AO3 word count?

238647.

Literally I do not shut up.

How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?

Final Fantasy XIV (7)

Dragon Age: Inquisition (3)

Detroit: Become Human (Video Game) (2)

Yuri!!! on Ice (Anime) (1)

Dragon Age (Video Games) (1)

Stardew Valley (Video Game) (1)

Fire Emblem: If | Fire Emblem: Fates (1)

Two of those are Dragon Age lol. "How do you have 200k words for this little content" you and me both would like to know! My DBH longfic probably largely to blame tho lmao.

What are your top five fics by kudos?

the silver lining still remains (complete dbh longfic featuring one of my many ocs. Still proud of this one tho its flaws are more noticeable to me now.)

hard is the heart that feels no fear (my first fic for ffxiv! I played shadowbringers and fell in love with a catboy. What else is new.)

a divine invention (my ffxivwrite from last year! proud of it mostly because i did it while juggling returning to work and a 3 month old. I am not doing it this year. For reasons. Such as that 3 month old being 15 months old now LOL)

The only way back (shout out to my one Yuri on Ice!!! fic, blond yuri-centric. also literally my only piece without an oc I think LOL)

old souls (my ffxiv 5.3 fic, because it got me right in the fuckinnnnn soul.)

Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

I try to! Sometimes I don't have the energy but I do try. I just tend to put it off.

What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

I tend to write happy endings as a rule but my DBH longfic involves a lot of trauma recovery lmao. Also my Dragon Age fics...mostly because they were written before Inquisition came out I think.

Do you write crossovers? If so, what’s the craziest one you’ve ever written?

I do not. I'm often encouraging masq to write hers tho. LOL

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

I don't think so, but then, I'm p oblivious to backhanded compliments. I do get some 'I don't usually read ocs, but...' but its always invariably 'but your oc slaps and I would kill and die for her' which I just take as a compliment lol.

Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Yeah, though this is a recent development! Only in context of loving relationships though. So far. kajsldkj

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

if i had they did a good heist cuz I ain't seen it.

Have you ever had a fic translated?

no but maybe one day!

What’s your all-time favorite ship?

my ocs/happiness with the ones they love. :smirk:

I have a DEEP soft spot for Emma/Connor (DBH) though. Dunno what it is about them...

What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

I have a star wars wip. I really like some of the writing in it. Don't know if it will ever see the light of day, sadly...it's an oc/rey/kylo fic and I think it's interesting!

What are your writing strengths?

i am told I have good prose! people tend to like my character work, too. i think!

I also really enjoy writing fight scenes, I've come to realize lol.

What are your writing weaknesses?

i think i struggle the most in the process with pacing and dialogue lol. definitely takes me the longest to figure out. Also. Remembering smell exists as a sense. LOL.

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in fic?

I don't!

What’s your favorite fic that you’ve written?

oh man uhhhh. I'm really proud of 'old souls'. wrote that in a fugue state after 5.3. I'm also really proud of my completed longfic, as you might have gathered at this point, but I did write 100k words of it! So I have a contractual obligation to like it!!!!!!

but my current fave -- and I think most reflective of where I am as a writer -- is my ongoing stardew fic, not now but soon. It's personal to me in a lot of ways (reflecting on loss of a mother and finding your way after that) and frankly some of my best writing so far! Which is nice to know I am getting better and not worse. lkajsldkajsd

Fic Writer Questions

i was tagged by @cherry-toxic and @gideongrace ty both 💕🥰💕

How many works do you have on AO3?

15

which is a relatively small number but sometimes im still like, holy shit i finished 15 whole fics lmao

What's your total AO3 word count?

68,299 (time to post a 701 word fic and then never post again i guess)

How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?

well this is about to get mildly embarrassing lmfao. ive only got harry potter & stranger things fics on my ao3 and tumblr but if you want a full list, as a teenager i posted a shitty borderlands self-insert fic on quizilla, and hiccup/jack frost fic on ff.net.

and if u count fics that never got finished or published anywhere i dabbled in teen wolf, supernatural, dragon age, star wars, left 4 dead 2, skyrim, good omens, the mcu, buffy, wynonna earp, plus like, general disney/dreamworks crossover fic. and i started writing shameless fics recently, we'll see if i actually finish any. aaaand...i think that's it?

so...15?

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

1. Wait for you, Burn for You

2. Find Our Way

3. Something to Hold

4. Room for One More Troubled Soul

5. Don't Know What I'm Gonna Do (About This Feeling Inside)

all harringrove fics except #4, which is probably only on the list because it's been on ao3 the longest lol

Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

oh god, i used to. i did when i was starting out, but then i just. i get self-conscious about what to actually say & leave shit to sit for too long. and suddenly ive got like 100 comments i havent replied to and i want to respond to them so bad but ive left them so long i feel weird about it now and it's a problem 😥

i want to start responding to them again, and every time i get a new one i tell myself im gonna but i never do cuz im fuckin awkward lmao

What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?

i......don't really do angsty endings. like, most of my fics end with smooches and/or love confessions lmao, i don't like leaving things off sad, even if it starts depressing as hell.

maybe this one? it still ends soft but without resolving the thing billy was angsting about, so.

Do you write crossovers? If so what's the craziest one you've ever written?

hahahhha.............i don't really do them anymore, but i already said i was into the whole animation movie crossover thing, so. yeah, i did lol. it was when i was in high school so of course i did one that was like, every disney character ever and they're going to school together. which really isn't that crazy a concept, but it was a lot of movies to write in so maybe that counts

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

nahh, not rly. i don't get around enough to attract anti attention lol, tho i did get one of those "👎" comments when someone was going around doing that, which lbr, is so low effort it barely counts 😂

Do you write smut? If so what kind?

yea sometimes. i do get the occasional horny idea lmao. mostly "what if touch-starved character + tenderness" or someone having lots of feelings while they're fucking. someone is usually billy lbr. i've also got a couple "what if someone got tied up and treated right" ideas but i don't think i've actually published any of those lmao

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

don't think so?

Have you ever had a fic translated?

i have not

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

yea, kinda! a collab with a friend of mine for fun

What's your all time favourite ship?

i...don't know? i get emotionally invested in characters more than the relationships themselves lol. i don't even know what ship i've been invested in for a long time, most of the shit i shipped as a kid i don't give a fuck about anymore lol.

except fuffy, actually. i've always shipped buffy/faith

and if we wanna go with fandom i've actively stuck with the longest it'd be harringrove. cuz ive been here and writing shit for yall for over a year now when i usually would've cycled thru a couple fixations by now lol

What's a WIP that you want to finish but don't think you ever will?

that's a mean question lmao how dare you. i honestly don't know, i have a lot of wips and i want to finish all of them. i know i won't but there isn't one specifically that seems less likely than the others so idk

What are your writing strengths?

uhhhhh.....i mean i've been told that my characterization is good? like, ppl being able to picture the actual characters when they're reading n stuff, so that's nice. and i could write introspection forever, u don't even know man, i get in the zone. i love getting in a character's head and picking apart their emotional state

What are your writing weaknesses?

writing dialogue really trips me up because i get picky about word choice lmao. i can be writing uninterrupted for twenty minutes cuz it's all a character's inner monologue but the second they gotta speak out loud im sittin there like ok what words sound natural and how much would they be willing to say etc. etc. suddenly it's an hour later and i've written three lines of dialogue. plus i tend to edit as i go so i'm always stopping and going back and rewriting stuff instead of just finishing the damn story

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

no thoughts head empty

lmao for real tho idk? i mean there's that one trope, when someone says nice stuff in a language the other person doesn't speak because they're pining and not sure if they're allowed to say it outright, that shit's cute. im sure all the google translated dialogue has been annoyin as shit for native speakers lmfao but yeah

What was the first fandom you ever wrote for?

probably harry potter but i literally have no idea. i started writing fic in my early teens and that time of my life is a big fuckin blur lmao

What's your favourite fic you've written?

ngl i think my fav fic is one of the multi-chapter wips i haven't published lmao

BUT. if i gotta pick something yall have read, this one. just a lil guy. plant dad billy and domesticity. it's cute and i like it. maybe also this fic that i wrote for valentine's day. i wrote basically the whole thing in one day and i was really proud of myself lmao, and i just really like headcanoning backstory for billy & that fic is rly just about him growing up, so

I'm planning to.

As Each Other (McKirk [are you sensing a theme?])

Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

Yes because comments make me happy but I'm slow because I'm lazy

What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

I only write happy endings so...none? I mean the fic I haven't updated since January is at a slightly angsty place but it's not an ending (I'm still working on it I swear lol)

What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?

I only write happy endings so...everything?

Do you write crossovers? If yes, what’s the craziest thing you’ve written?

Not really. I did write a fic very loosely inspired by Buzzfeed Unsolved, but it's not really a crossover lol (That would be "The Ongoing Investigation into the Question: Are Ghosts Real?" which is preslash McKirk)

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Not really but I did have some unsolicited concrit once or twice

Do you write smut? If so what kind?

Hahahahaha no. Not at all. If you had ever read any of my attempts at smut (which you haven't, cuz they never get out of google docs) you'd understand why. The most I write is like a light M. Anything more than a heavy makeout and I just like can't do it lol

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I'm aware of

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope!

Have you ever co-written a fic?

No and I don't think I would like it. I've got a certain style and mood I want my fics to have and I don't think I would like having to incorporate someone else's vision into that

What’s your all time favourite ship?

McKirk (shocking I know). It's the only pairing I've ever written lol but once I finish DS9 I might try my hand at some KiraDax

What’s a WIP you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

I'm committed to finishing the WIP I've got on A03 but in terms of stuff I haven't published? So much shit. I've got so many unfinished google docs

What’s your writing strengths?

I'm a good dialogue writer and great at banter/light humor. I'm good at writing happy, fun stories!

What’s your writing weaknesses?

I’m really terrible at writing smut, as I mentioned, and also I'm not really the greatest at like heavy angst or action.

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in fic?

Well I don't do it because I'm lazy. I don't mind reading it if it's used sparingly and in a way that makes sense and also has a translation in the author's note because I don't want to have to look it up myself because, as I've said, I'm lazy

What was the first fandom you wrote for?

Wrote for? Some dorky kids book I read when I was 12 I wrote a few pages of self insert shit. Published? Star Trek AOS.

What’s your favourite fic you’ve written?

You can't ask me to pick between my babies! But probably Of Post-It Notes, Plants, and Peach Cobbler (McKirk) or Read My Lips (Also McKirk)

I'm not tagging anyone cuz as I said I'm very lazy but if you see this and want to do it feel free to say I tagged you!

Fic Writer Questions

from @wincestismyheart / @twobrothersoneheart not sure where the questions came from originally but thanks for tagging me! This one seemed like a lot of fun so I had to do it...

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

I have 5 works published on Ao3 which doesn't sound like a lot, but then I remember a lot of my stuff is shorter and on my tumblr haha

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

My total word count is 8521 since most of my fics are one chapter and pretty short

3. How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?

One fandom: Supernatural

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Well I only have 5 lol, but here they are in order of popularity based off kudos:

Just Like A Dream - in which Sam dresses up in a tiny french maid outfit to get Dean's attention. Smut ensues.

Just Mine - boyking!Sam and demon!Dean get freaky in hell's throne room, with an audience.

All of the Sinners - demon!Sam and angel!Dean meet up at a church where things get... sexy.

Baby - Dean is finally reunited with the Impala after their separation (in season 7 when they have to get rid of her in order to hide from Dick) but it's not a perfect reunion without Sam (he is there he's just like sitting back and watching Dean love his car lol)

Ain't the Same - this one's kinda hard for me to summarize. it's just like angsty teenage-ry BS from both Sam and Dean (they're like 12 and 17 respectively). Deans been hunting with his dad but suddenly gets dropped off, with Sam, at Bobby's which he thinks is some sort of sign that his dad thinks he's not good enough to keep hunting. Sam, on the other hand, has been spending pretty much all his time alone and is happy to finally have someone to hang out with but gets increasingly pissed that Dean doesn't wanna hang out with him. They "steal" (it's from Bobby's lot so not really lol) a car, sneak out to the movies, then have a cute little bonding moment after. Just general angst and fluff.

5. Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

Yes! If you liked my fic enough to sit down and write a comment, then I can take a moment to reply.

6. What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?

I think it's All of the Sinners. I usually have open-ended endings but with the boys being on good terms. But with this fic it ends with Dean kind of asking to see Sam again, like he really wants something less casual, but Sam is very much against it because they're on two different sides (Sam's a demon and Dean's an angel).

7. What's the fic you've written with the happiest ending?

I'm not sure because they usually end pretty happy, or at least the boys are content. But I think it's between Just Like a Dream and Ain't the Same. Just Like a Dream ends after the boys' first time together with some cuddling. Ain't the Same probably is the happier ending, it ends with Dean having a realization of how happy he actually is just hanging out with his family (just Bobby and Sam at the time, but still).

8. Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you've written?

I've tried to do crossovers before but they never really work out. The craziest one I came up with, even though I never really wrote it cuz it was long and didn't really make any sense, was like a multi-fandom crossover, where Sam and Dean are wizards that go to Hogwarts. I think I left out the HP characters, just used the setting, or they were in the same year as Albus Potter (I can't really remember, but I was also going back and forth on a lot of the details) but didn't really interact with him/that group. Then Sherlock and John were also there and they become pretty good friends with them, especially Sherlock and Sam get along real well. And at some point I think I wanted to throw in the 10th Doctor as well (he's my fave) but he was supposed to be like the weird friend in the group who had these weird dreams about a blue box that flew through space. Then I can't remember if I was going to try and get them into the Dr Who universe through him or not. Idk, it was crazy and didn't really have a point except that I wanted to put all these characters together in this specific setting haha!

9. Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Nope, nothing yet.

10. Do you write smut? If so what kind?

That's pretty much all I write lol. Usually stuff with specific kinks, usually Sam/Dean, sometimes softer or more vanilla stuff. Kind of depends.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not as far as I know.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

No, but it would be cool!

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

Not really. When I write something I tend to have a very specific vision for the story so I'm probably not so great to collaborate with anyway haha.

14. What's your all time favorite ship?

Wincest. Hands down. Always.

15. What's a WIP that you want to finish but don't think you ever will?

That's a hard question for me. If it's something I want to finish then it's a story I still believe in so even if it's really slow progress I'm still working on it. The WIPs I think I won't finish are the ones I have already given up on because something about the story is off and I don't really believe in it anymore. If I still believe in a story then I'll finish it eventually lol.

16. What are your writing strengths?

I'm not sure. I'm very terrible at self-analysis.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

I think my biggest weakness is writing how I feel in the moment instead of through the lens of a certain character. I also want perfection but am so bad at editing, so my stories almost never end up the way I think of them. I find it hard to capture the mood or feeling that I dream up in my head. But wanting things to be exactly how I think of them the first time is also bad, because then I don't let the story grow or get better through editing. So it's all bad really.

18. What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

I don't think I've encountered that before. I don't wanna say I do or don't like it but I think it would depend a lot on context.

19. What was the first fandom you wrote for?

I want to say Supernatural because it's what i've written most but probably not. I don't have everything I've written over the years saved so I'm really not sure. I do remember having a handful of fics (like two or three) for Ouran High School Host Club. But even that I'm not sure was my first.

20. What's your favorite fic you've written?

It kind of depends. I just reread a fic I wrote and only published on here about Sam and Dean in college which I really liked for the writing itself. But I love All of the Sinners because of the imagery it reminds me of when I was writing the fic, but the writing itself is not good and doesn't really get the imagery across the way I'd like it to. So, I think for the feeling it gives me it's my fave.

fic writers tag

@montygreen​ tagged me in this ages ago but I have been having the nuttiest couple of weeks so it took me a hot sec to get to this, but I do appreciate it and if you somehow don’t already follow leila on here, you should go do that rn

now down to business :) 

1) How many works do you have on AO3? only 3 at the moment! 

2) What’s your total AO3 word count? 45238 as of today 

3) How many fandoms have you written for and what are they? just never have i ever! although i’m sure there are a few unfinished, never-published, years-old stories from assorted fandoms from when I was younger floating around in the void somewhere

4) What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

haha well I’ve only got 3 published, but the number one spot goes to vanilla ice cream, which makes sense since it’s the only one i’ve actually finished so far 🙈

5) What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

none of them? i feel like the reason i often read fic is because there is some unresolved canon-angst that i want someone else to resolve so while i definitely have points of tension, all of my stories tend to end (or are planned to end) happy  

6) What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?

i think vanilla ice cream will still probably be the fluffiest bc of that epilogue i decided to write last minute, even once i finish all the others. but they’re all pretty happy 🥰

7) Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you’ve written?

not so far, though i try to make it a habit to never say never. I think its one of those things that’s really difficult to write well and I’m just not sure it’s in my skillset to do so. but who knows? maybe one day! 

8) Do you write smut? If so what kind?

see above haha. it’s pretty much the exact same answer :) 

9) Do you respond to comments, why or why not? 

I really try to answer all of them, although I know I missed a bunch while I was on a sorta unplanned writing hiatus. It’s only been a year of me posting anything I’ve written and it still genuinely baffles me that people not only read but also enjoy the things I put out there into the world, so every “thank you for reading” is from the heart for me and it’s so worth taking the two seconds to make my appreciation known. 

10. Have you ever received hate on a fic?

no, thankfully! i think part of that is just i haven’t been around that long haha

11) Have you ever had a fic stolen?

i don’t... think so? 

12) Have you ever had a fic translated?

no but how cool is that? i wasn’t even really aware that was a thing that could happen! 

13) Have you ever co-written a fic before?

no! but if anyone wants to feel free to hmu 👀 i am super busy rn but i would love to eventually cuz so many of the folks who write for this show are so talented

14) What’s your all time favorite ship?

oh gosh. all time is really, really hard. obvi for NHIE i’ve fully boarded the ben/devi train, but some other all time TV faves of mine are ben/leslie from parks&rec, david/patrick from schitts creek, and josh/donna from the west wing. you might be able to tell i love a rivals to lovers moment from some of these lol 💀 but there are so many that i love for different reasons it’s like picking a favorite child lmao

15) What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

I do have plans to finish the 2 remaining fics up on ao3, but I will admit, the rosy dot over the i of loving was... ambitious, and not exactly well thought out when I started it. so it may be a while. i haven’t started much else new since those 3 went up, since i’ve been trying to finish what i’ve started. but i have had this ben/devi idea rattling around in my brain ever since i read the book “the unhoneymooners” that I am just not sure i’ll ever quite get around to. 

16) What are your writing strengths?

i like to think i’m pretty good at writing dialogue! in college, i took a creative writing class for playwriting, where it was drilled into our head that you want to get as much of the story as humanly possible out through words, rather than actions. basically my professors argument was that any stage direction could be ignored by a director if the action/object/setting/etc. wasn’t directly referred to in lines said by a character. so if it was important to you, we should make someone talk about it! i think because of that my narration tends to be a little sparser (but hopefully that’s to the benefit of the dialogue!!)

oh, and i also took a class in humor writing and got an A, so.... 👀

17) What are your writing weaknesses?

i think i could be a lot better at coming up with themes/symbols/metaphors/etc. Having not really planned out the WIPs on AO3 now, this was hard to do, so I guess that also goes hand in hand with my time management haha. But yeah I find it a little difficult to have those sorts of literary devices in longer works (i used to write a lot more poetry and it was a little easier for me in that format so i have faith that i can get better).

18) What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

i only fluently speak english and you do not want to see me butcher french or german, let alone a language I’ve never taken courses in. so it’s a hard no for me personally haha. that said if you know more than another language, first of all i’m jealous, and second of all, go for it! 

19) What was the first fandom you wrote for?

i don’t really know! like i said i used to write things without publishing them anywhere, so it’s hard to remember. maybe harry potter, when I was like 10? i feel like i probably wrote the same self-insert hogwarts moment that literally every 10 year old in the late-aughts was writing haha

i know for sure there was a b99 fic that was almost published on ao3 back in like season 2 or 3? that’s why my username is what it is 😊

20) What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

i’m really proud of finishing vanilla ice cream. buuuut i am also really proud of the poems in the rosy dot over the i of loving and i think if i ever finish that one, it will be my favorite for pushing me out of my writing comfort zone.  

Tagging: fellow benvi advocate and @gross-vishwakumar and anyone else who would like to answer that hasn’t already been tagged by someone else cuz i know i got to this a bit late lol 🙈

[littlemisspascal]

Thank you so so much @the-scandalorian 💝💖💝

How many works do you have on AO3?

24 (mostly because I split Death and an Angel into individual fics)

What’s your total AO3 word count?

112,751

How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?

12, but if you take away headcanons then...5 I think

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Establish Ties / Together / A Head Full of Maybes / You’re It For Me / Immortal Like Us

Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

I try my best to! There are some I don’t only cuz I’m not sure what I should say and my introverted side kicks in, but 99% of the time I do!

What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

I don’t like angst (although I write it a lot lol), but probably Stay With Me

Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you’ve written?

I have no written a crossover, nope.

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Yep. Because I don’t write smut some people expressed their displeasure with my writing style.

Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I have written smut for one Ezra story Into the Blue...and as a sex-repulsed asexual it was a super uncomfortable process so I’m not inclined to ever write it again.

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

I don’t think my fics are worth being stolen, so probably not

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope.

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I’d be the worst person to write a fic with cuz I write so slow

What’s your all time favorite ship?

What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

I have so many ideas and outlines for The Last Mandalorian. I can only pray I get them all written

What are your writing strengths?

I think I’m good with coming up with plots

What are your writing weaknesses?

Writing the plot I come up. Flow. Showing not telling. Suspense. Descriptions. Natural sounding dialogue. (pretty much everything about writing...)

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

It terrifies me. For my Pero fic, since he doesn’t speak Spanish often in the movie, I made him speak it in the story very few times and I italicized the words.

What was the first fandom you wrote for?

Mandalorian

What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

Death and an Angel is my baby

[starkassembled]

I am a huge Hannibal fan / Hannigram shipper and know well enough that the new show has no relationship with Hannibal TV show. But as far as harassing the show-runner is concerned, it was Kurtzman who diminished the show labelling it nothing more than a gore-fest in comparison to what he claims would be 'meaningful cases'. What was the point of this kind of ignorant dismissal and insult ? They aren't related, and should be left at that, so yes some fans are disturbed at that, not the show.

[Also many of us have read the books, seen the movies. Fans thinking that Clarice is a problem from the Hannibal show are not correct either, just like you are incorrect thinking we want a crossover, because the shows exist in different universe so completely there is no chance it may cross path. But you are ignorant and loud mouthed.]] //end of questions from the same author, I think?// - - - So, by that logic, the show Clarice holds absolutely no interest for you and this entire fanbase. Has no connection to Hannibal and shouldn’t even be in your orbit? Why would you be actively pursuing a hate campaign for the series and anyone that is excited about there being a show based around Clarice Starling? Why not just focus on the Season 4 campaigns? The Clarice tags on this site as well as twitter are clogged with people spewing hatred and false statements. Like Clarice doesn’t have the rights to any Harris characters apart from Clarice Starling herself (it has the rights to dozens, and the first episode alone had physical appearances of 6, 2 verbal/visual references to other characters). And the perpetual spreading of the false narratives that one: Clarice Starling is a “rip-off” character of Will Graham. and two: that Clarice Starling doesn’t have enough to her character to hold up a tv series, when she’s the main character of both The Silence of the Lambs *and* Hannibal novels and films. I’m a huge Lecterverse fan. I followed NBC’s show from the pilot episode. Being a part of that fanbase for so long, I’ve watched it slowly transform into a toxic, aggressive and sad shell of it’s former self. Attacking fellow fans, attacking other shows, attacking actors and actresses for no reason. The toxicity and vitriol from that fanbase has tainted the show for me, I haven’t had the heart to re-watch it in at least two years. The final straw for me was when some fan account decided to steal my own picture and photoshop Will Graham’s face over my own. Who does that? My point wasn’t that you guys dream about a crossover, it’s that you would better benefit the Season 4 campaign if you advocated for a crossover rather than trying to tank the show before it even begins. MGM holds those rights that a fourth season desperately needs. You want to be friends with them, not enemies. I remember how bad things went when the BBC Sherlock fanbase decided to start a hate campaign with the CBS Elementary series, and it’s really disappointing that 9 years later, y’all are acting the exact same way. Any Lecter adaptation is a good thing, not something that should be aggressively loathed like some scorned lover. As for the Kurtzman quote, I’d really enjoy a link to the article in question, cuz I’ve read through about 6 of them and here’s the only two I see that mention Hannibal Lecter, and they don’t seem offensive to me at all as a fan of both series? “But it's been quite liberating because we have no interest in writing about Hannibal — not because we didn't love the films and the show, but because it was done so well by so many people that it didn't feel fresh for us,“ and “Let me say that we’re not doing what the show Hannibal did and that was make a literal meal of the murders themselves. Our goal, when we pick individual cases, is to always organize our story break around what’s going on for the characters and then how can the case itself somehow illuminate some inner struggle that they’re not confronting? So, we don’t really break story or grisly murders or ‘what’s the grisliest murder we can put on camera?’ We break story from the point of view of asking ‘What are they not looking at? What are they afraid to look at? What are they scared to look at? And how does this case open a door for them that they may not necessarily want to walk through?” Those both are factual and fair statements to me. Hannibal Lecter’s character has been portrayed in 5 films and one television series by some incredibly talented and decorated actors. Brian Cox, Sir Anthony Hopkins, Gaspard Ulliel, briefly as young Lecter by Aaron Thomas and of course, by the incredible Mads Mikkelsen. His story is fully realized, from birth to old age. Why mess with fantastic acting and storytelling when you can tap into an untold story about Clarice, her years from the end of The Silence of the Lambs to the start of the Hannibal novel. That’s a 7 year gap to fill, and one that can be told easily without Lecter’s name. NBC Hannibal had wonderful cinematography, and we can all agree that it was gory pieces of art. It was so graphic that it turned away certain viewers at the time of airing because of how graphic it was at the time. In the one episode we’ve gotten of Clarice so far, the deaths are not “pieces of art”, they focus less on the killer and more on the victims, which is perfectly in line with Clarice’s empathy. It doesn’t suit the tone of the story these writers are trying to tell. I don’t find those statements insulting, I find them factual. Not everyone is interested in the gory death scenes. And I think emphasizing the victim’s stories are rather fitting for the time period we’re in now, it reminds me of the late Michelle McNamara’s true crime novel, I’ll Be Gone In The Dark. tldr: if you don’t like the concept of a Clarice Starling standalone series, then don’t watch it. but don’t actively mistreat those that do want to watch it and are curious to check it out. as this series holds absolutely nothing against Hannibal and the fan campaign to get a fourth season. and don’t be rude? isn’t that the entire tagline of Hannibal? Lol.

I was tagged by @squireofgeekdom ! I tag @tearlessrain @astriiformes @propheticfire

How many works do you have on AO3?

-Chekov voice- seventeen, sir!

What’s your total AO3 word count?

904778 o_o

How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?

on AO3, 5, if you don’t count the tags that kind of are in the same fandom Harry Potter Star Trek DS9

Star Wars The Clone Wars

Good Omens

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters Off AO3, I’ve also done a little bit of other stuff, like Pokemon and FF7 and asimov robots

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

1. LTFAD (1754) 2. One of a Million (659) 3. The Gospel of Crowley (456) 4. The Care and Keeping of Cardassians (239) 5. Who We Are Alone (205)

Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

Yes! I try to. I really want people to know that I appreciate comments and I also just like connecting with people over the characters and moments I had so much fun writing :3

What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

Okay well most of my fics are not finished, so... I guess by default that means A King’s Sacrifice wins because... yeah, it’s tragic. A close second is Who We Are Alone but that ends on a much more hopeful note tbh.

Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you’ve written?

I do but I don’t usually post them, they’re just side projects for my own amusement. I did a FF7 / OCs crossover hogwarts au once, and a crossover between my and Cal’s original sff world and Disney’s Mulan, complete with song lyrics. That was fun xD

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Nope! I shouldn’t be surprised if it happens eventually but so far I’ve been lucky.

Do you write smut? If so what kind?

I have never actually written it in long form like, actual narration, only in chat RPs. Usually either really ridiculous stuff that doesn’t take itself too seriously, or something really sweet and emotional and/or awkward in an endearing way lol. I am a softy.

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

not to my knowledge, and I sure hope it never happens!

Have you ever had a fic translated?

yes!! Gospel of Crowley is being translated into french by Likia on AO3 and @yalakid has been translating some of the Bly/Aayla one-shots into spanish :3 it seriously makes me sooo happy.

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

P much all my fics are co-written with @spica-tea !

What’s your all time favourite ship?

In general, it has to be Clack aka Zakkura from FF7. They are my OTP hands down when it comes to romantic. But fav qpp is Cody and Rex. 

What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

I will finish And So It Goes!! Some day!!! I’m sorry!!!!! Lol so I guess that being said my legit answer would be like... War and the Soul. It woudl be nice to finish it someday cuz the idea behind it was fun, but I don’t really have the motivation to and don’t see myself going back to it.

What are your writing strengths?

Dialogue, describing settings and sensations, poetic narration and actual poetry.

What are your writing weaknesses?

p l o t lol

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

I like it when it’s done convincingly and doesn’t take the reader out of the story too much. Language is fun!

What was the first fandom you wrote for?

I guess probably FF7? if you count all the innumerable roleplays. Otherwise it was a bunch of horse girl books that I wrote self-insert fanfic of when I was 10 xP but yeah my first legit fanfic was probably harry potter.

What’s your favourite fic you’ve written?

LtFAD just by sheer amount of how much I think about it and how many hours of daydreaming and brainstorming and feels it has inspired. Otherwise I can’t really choose...

[m34gs]

5. The World I Want to Know (Blue Exorcist Atlantis AU; Bon/Rin)

Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

Yes! I love responding to comments. I feel it brings me closer to the people reading my fics! I do sometimes take a while when my work life and offline relationships are busier, or when someone sends a really sweet comment and I am just overwhelmed by the happy feelings and need a little bit of time to calm down so that I can actually formulate a response, lol.

What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?

Oh. This is a tough one...I suppose it would be a toss-up between Unforgiving Winter and When the Sun Left His Sky. Both are BNHA quirkless aus, focusing on Izuku and Katsuki's friendship as children. Warning for child death in both. Read at your own risk. These are the two that I've gotten the most emotional responses over.

Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you've ever written?

I am currently writing a very big one. It is a crossover that was spawned through many discussions between myself and @kimium. We casually call it the Bar AU, and it currently encompasses four fandoms (JJK, BNHA, Bleach, and Fire Force, at this moment) and I have plans to add Dr. Stone soon. And. As of...I think a week ago?...Blue Exorcist is on the list to be added into the chaos. Currently, I am just starting the crossover, but there was so much groundwork and background to set up that I have split it into separate series for the parts that are only focused on one fandom. In order to still keep those linked to the actual Bar AU series, I have started a collection for the fics. I don't take submissions as this is mainly to organize and keep them together for anyone who is interested in reading the Bar AU. You can find the collection here: The Glorious Bar AU, and I will be adding to it hopefully soon.

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

...not so much hate? But I have had people disagree with how I portray things or state their opinions that they dislike what a character is doing. I try to give those people the benefit of the doubt and respond as politely as possible because I know sometimes texting/commenting/online interactions can be easily misunderstood, and as someone who has often been misunderstood and torn apart for simple statements in texts, I would rather try to be kind about it. Usually it does end up being a misunderstanding of the tone of the message and it all is resolved, and sometimes those individuals end up being some of my biggest supporters in subsequent chapters of the same fics, and that is always very heartwarming and makes me feel very happy. In all honesty, I think of anyone who reads and comments on my fic as a special gemstone that I keep tucked away in my heart. All of you are so appreciated!

Do you write smut? If so what kind?

...yes. And I have a separate account for it because I am aware some of my followers here are on the young side, and I don't feel comfortable putting it in front of them. And that's all I feel like saying on that. :)

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

No, not to my knowledge.

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes! When the Sun Left His Sky has a Polish translation on Wattpad, by @tlumaczeniauvee, link here!

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I have not, but there is something in the works with @backwardshirt and @kuroosden

What’s your all time favorite ship?

Too many to choose from. Honestly. I love a lot of ships, and I can be very flexible on who I ship together.

What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

...what are you talking about of course I'll be finishing them all...it's just gonna take me...a long time...

What are your writing strengths?

Tbh I am unsure. I think I do well with world building and motivation/character development.

What are your writing weakness?

Fluff. Writing fluff is hard for me. I do well with angst. But fluff is a struggle. I am practicing and getting better.

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

I have seen lots of people do it. I don't think I will mainly because I do not actually speak more than one language, and so I do not feel confident in my ability to write in another language. This may change in the future but this is my feelings about it right now. Like, my friend, I barely get through the English some days cuz my brain goes 'Lol, nope'.

What was the first fandom you ever wrote for?

BNHA.

What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

This is like asking me to pick a favourite child. This is unfair. But I suppose...When the Sun Left His Sky has a very special place in my heart.

Tagging @kimium, if you want to participate :)

Karate Kid/Cobra Kai survey

Thanks for the tag @carltonlassie

It’s the year 2021 and you’re obsessed with The Karate Kid. How are you feeling?: I’ve gotten to the point where I have accepted that this is in fact my life now.

Did you grow up with TKK or are you new to the series?: I did actually grow up with it! I wasn’t old enough to see them when they first came out but I saw TKK for the first time when I was 6. TKK is the whole reason I got into MMA.

We gotta do the basics. Favorite character: I know saying the main character is my favorite is very unoriginal, but Johnny will probably always be my favorite.

Favorite ship: LAWRUSSO

Underrated character: From TKK, Yukie, and from CK definitely Rosa.

Underrated ship (don’t say therapy, lol): @phantomcomet got me on the Lanoush train and I haven’t found a way to get off it yet.

Wax On, Wax Off or Sweep the Leg?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olQ3vaiv47I

Which of Daniel’s dumb little outfits is your favorite?:I’m torn between the camo pants and the bomber jacket

Character from the films you most want to return, who’s not Terry Silver: I’d be VERY interested in seeing Mike Barnes return. Also Dutch(I’m still salty about not getting my full Cobra reunion).

Scene that lives in your head rent-free: The Garage Fight scene will never not live in my head.

Will Anthony LaRusso ever be relevant?: I was really hoping he would be. He’s a snarky lil shit and I like him.

You live in The Valley and are forced into the karate gang war. Which dojo do you join?: Are we talking pre season 2? Cuz Cobra Kai all the way. Post season 2 is *sigh* Miyagi-Do(I love Daniel I do I just can’t with him sometimes)

What’s your training montage song?: Sam Tinnesz - Bloodshot

It’s the crossover event of the century! Which TV show are you combining with Cobra Kai for an hour-long Saturday night special?: *scrambles to think of literally any other TV show*... It’s Always Sunny

Idk I mean I feel like you should tag gf in these amazing wonderful posts along with perryshmirtz bc one of the biggest ships in gravity falls was a triangle and a boy. Side note but gravity falls will always be stronger in my opinion for how it handled dippers crush on wendy vs ferbs on vanessa. There was even a smaller age gap and Alex Hirsch still made it a point to show how weird it was especially from Wendy's pov

oof sorry it’s been a few days this week has been A Week™ (this ended up being a much longer answer than i thought whoops have a cut)

i’m never really sure whether i should tag them as gravity falls? like i do have them all tagged as “pnf/gf crossover” and/or “gf” for the same reason I tag ships like perryshmirtz and ferbnessa: so people can filter them out. idk if they really belong in the gravity falls tag tho? i don’t even tag a lot of them as phineas and ferb cuz i just kinda assume it’s not what people are looking for in those tags, especially bc a lot of times it builds off of other posts. i do link the other posts but ppl probably won’t want to go through and look at all of them. i just know it gets annoying when you’re looking through the phineas and ferb tag and it’s full of people answering a bunch of asks lol

also, as much as I love Gravity Falls, I gotta disagree there. I’m not gonna get into Ferbnessa bc i definitely see why it makes people uncomfortable, but in regards to the show itself, i like pnf more. i feel like gravity falls has some really good episodes and then some episodes that i’ll most likely never watch again (which is true of most shows; i feel the same way about supernatural and i’ve been obsessed with that show for 5+ years now), but pnf manages to keep the same formula but with different jokes so there really aren’t that many “bad” episodes? if we’re talking purely relationship-wise, though, i do have to hand it to gravity falls, if only because i love grunkle stan’s relationship with the twins (which is lowkey comparable to my headcanons of perry’s relationship with the boys from his perspective, but that’s only ever explored in at2d and maybeready for the bettys so that doesn’t count)
