#(then again we rarely post in tags and i think only have... 20-ish followers on that blog? something to that tune?)

ASPD culture is seeing an antisocial person be 'anti good faith labels' (like bi lesbian and such) and immediately thinking they're a poser. pfft, you think societally created bullshit has strict rules that everyone must follow? lame, I thought ASPD was Disregard The Rules disorder.

20 Questions

20 questions, writer's edition, I was tagged by @lambourngb 😊❤❤

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

71! 70 for roswell and one for vagrant queen

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

468, 583!!

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

not entirely sure tbh, but let's count now:

timkon, bandom, glee, specifically pukurt, but some other ships too, merlin, doctor who, torchwood, teen wolf, agents of shield, runaways, the old guard, vagrant queen, and obviously, roswell new mexico

i think there might be more, but i don’t remember rn

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

the cost of greatness, which i cowrote with marlo

a cure i know that soothes the soul (does so impossibly), the first pwp i wrote for this fandom lol

the person that you’d take a bullet for is behind the trigger, which i wrote for marlo

for better or for worse (til death do us part), which i also cowrote with marlo lol

it might be your wound but they’re my sutures, which i also wrote for marlo

so the pattern im sensing here is that my most popular fics were written with/for marlo which sounds about right lol

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

i am not sure tbh, i write some pretty angsty one shots and longer fics, but i TRY to at least give a slightly hopeful ending, tho now that i’m thinking about it, i think the angstiest thing i’ve written was that prompt fill based on the song, for island fires and family, i remember SOBBING the entire time that i wrote it (there is miluca in that one), but ALSO there is the fic i wrote in reaction to the season one finale, which also made me cry, which was called, we both know how this story ends

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

once again i’m not sure, like i said before, i try to give my fics hopeful endings if they’re really angsty, and i love me some hurt/comfort, but i’m not entirely known for writing happy, fluffy fics, tho i do TRY sometimes for certain people

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

yes!! i do love me some crossovers, and i guess i would have to say the malex, sort of doctor who au, i’m technically still writing for tove

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

yes??? but i’m not sure if i could classify it, like i’ll write pretty much anything within reason and if it doesn’t squick me out

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

okay, so like don’t hate me, but no, i rarely, if ever respond to comments, i just don’t know what to say at all, like i’m the type of person that really wants every single message to be unique and special, but there are only so many ways to thank someone for reading your fic, so i just tend to post things and then thank everyone for reading afterwards, if there is someone that shows up often on my notifications, or if someone asks me a specific question pertaining to the story, then i will answer, i also answer back if i wrote the fic for someone and they left a comment, and if i’m sent an ask on here about something that i wrote, but i am simultaneously the world's most shy and confident person ever, when it comes to my writing, so i’m so sorry

this doesnt mean that i dont appreciate every comment that i get because i really do, im just super shy and awkward and i may write good-ish, but i do NOT have the same way with words in person

10. Have you ever received hate on a fic?

not really?? if i have i don’t remember it, usually i’m the one who talks the worse about my own writing

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

not that i know of

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

yes, the only kurtbastian fic i’ve ever written was translated into russian

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

yep!! as y’all probably saw from my top five fics up there somewhere, marlo @bestillmyslashyheart is basically my fic writing soulmate, we just really click when it comes to writing

14. What's your all time favourite ship? to write for?

atm it’s malex, which is more than obvious, BUT before they hijacked my brain and made their home within my neurons, it was skimmons!!! i wrote fic for them for YEARS, even after i stopped watching aos

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

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, i’m just gonna talk about fics that i’ve posted and haven’t updated and not any of the hundreds of wips that have never seen the light of day, my original witch au tbh, i just, roswell made maria and isobel somehow related, and just made me really uncomfortable with the ship, which is the main reason that i’m not gonna finish the fic if i’m being perfectly honest, there is ALSO that au i had where michael’s daughter from the future comes back to the past and she had been raised by alex, because of reasons that are petty, probably my space opera au as well, and only because i just want to write other things MORE

16. What are your writing strengths?

i think i’m good at describing things, especially kisses, i LOVE writing kisses, it’s one of my favorite things, that and my fight scenes are two of the things i pride myself the most on

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

dialogue, sometimes i feel the characters are ridiculously out of character, but then i don’t care because sometimes in canon characters are also ridiculously out of characters, also describing things, because sometimes i just feel like scenes don’t flow right, i am definitely a comma whore, and use dashes and hyphens in places they definitely shouldn’t be used, run-on sentences are my best friends, also english isn't my first language, so, sometimes the way i phrase things just come out wrong

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

tbh completely honest, i follow the nora sakavic method where you just write the dialogue in english like, “hey there love,” they said in perfect french, and i only break this rule if i actually know the language because just translating straight from english always makes things sound stilted and weird

19. What was the first fandom you wrote for?

dc comics, i wrote several timkon fics which i posted on livejournal

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

oh, i know that love is all about the wind, how it can hold me up and kill me in the end (still i loved it), no specific reason why, i just love it with my entire heart!!

and that's it!! im not gonna tag anyone cause I saw that most ppl were already tagged, but if you want to do this just say that I tagged you!!

[starchild--27]

i was tagged by sweet Feli @myeonplane for this sort of check in-tag game ~ thank youu <3

1. why did you choose your url? the initial thought was "when there's the term "moonchild" why shouldn't there be "starchild" as well?" so i just went with that concept xD the 27 is just my favourite number for no real reason other than it's like... re-appearing in my life occasionally.

2. any side blogs? not really a side blog, but i'm an admin at @wolveswithblackpearls and as we quite recently deleted the original blog by accident, we are still trying to collect our followers again so.... self-promo i guess? we do moodboards and we try to post regularly and it's mainly exo as we are reposting our old work but we try to be more multifandom in the future so yeah... pls check us out if you read this and haven't already? anyway, i have another sideblog but nobody shall ever know about it so 🤫

3. how long have you been on tumblr? since 2016-ish ?? so 5 years.

4. do you have a queue tag? no xD i rarely use the queue function with this blog lol. i just save everything in my drafts if "i don't feel like reblogging" (pls don't ask, i can't explain, it's a gut feeling or maybe laziness) and then i just spam post these posts at some point xD

5. why did you start your blog in the first place? one of my favourite youtube creators was quite active here back in 2016 so she brought this social media to my attention and i really fell in love with the way this site functions (or malfunctions xD)

6. why did you choose your icon/pfp? it's an edit of a pic a friend took sort of accidently but it was aesthetic so i made my pfp basically everywhere lol but ngl... with all the new exo pics that came out i really feel the urge to change my theme again xD

7. why did you choose your header? bc it states the truth :c

8. what’s your post with the most notes? umm... I think it was the "no thoughts. only jekyll by exo." post and it is still a mood 😌

9. how many mutuals do you have? i don't even know how to define mutual, really 😅🥲 always insecure about my relationship with people

10. how many followers do you have? 233 (hello y'all I hope your doing fine~)

11. how many people do you follow? 413 but I feel like I only see max 20 on my dash 🙊

12. have you ever made a shitpost? yes i have. multiple xD

13. how often do you use tumblr each day? ... :) a lot.

14. did you have a fight/argument with another blog once? not really a fight, but somebody was pretty rude towards me after i reblogged a moodboard or sth and tumblr deleted the caption. it probably happend a lot before so they were really pissed about that. i didn't intend this to happen though, i didn't even know it was possible, but yeah that person who gave me shit for it wasn't even the original poster?? i apologized anyway, explained that i didn't know and even reblogged it again with the caption (ironically i really liked the caption, so i really didn't want it deleted) and they never said anything to me again so... rude but nothing heartcrushing. i felt bad about it tho

15. how do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts? i don't need to do anything thank you :)

16. do you like tag games? alwayyys ^^

17. do you like ask games? they satisfy my oversharing tedencies when they bubble up, so yes, of course :D i also like to read other people's answers <3 getting to know a mutual better is the best thinggg~

18. which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous? i have literally no feeling for who's famous and who's not xD i feel like i'm caught in a huge tumblr family here where everyone somehow knows everybody. i'm always like "oH you know each other too???" in my head xD

19. do you have a crush on a mutual? all of them. you are all so lovely and for real, i get so excited when i'm texting with any of you, if we ever met irl i'd probably lose my ability to speak and be very embarrassing xD typical crush behaviour.

20. tags? @byuns-coco @heartcravings @guardians-of-exo @his-mochi-cheeks @xiu-bee @artemiss-moonchild @kkoongiees @saintloey @ouvuo @changshapatrol (only if you want to, of course) and everybody else who's up to this ^-^
