⋆.˚ ☁︎ TEENAGE DREAM ☁︎︎ ⋆.˚
—sometimes at eighteen, young love is anything but a teenage dream.
genres・fluff // young love // awkward confessions // meet cutes. summary・love is embarrassing, especially when you're in high school. from the cozy coffee shop to the local campus, eight boys stumble through the awkward world of crushes—trying, and failing to confess to you.
a/n・I haven't been on here for a little while, but I wanted to do something silly and fun to celebrate 500 amazing followers! All of these ideas are still in the works, so the plots may change, but I'm having so much fun writing them. I get hit with a pang of nostalgia every once in a while, remembering my very first fanfiction, haha. If you want to be tagged in any of these, just comment down below or send me an ask—and always remember to support your content creators; it means the world to us!!
☁︎︎ COFFEE CUP ☁︎︎
BANG CHAN loved being a barista; not only did he get exceptional employee discounts but it was peaceful—he handed people their coffee, they said thank you and walked away—nobody ever bothered him. that is, until one night, ten minutes before closing, you walked in with your bright smile and garrulous chit-chat. It only took you one sentence to have him hooked, eagerly waiting for your next late-night visit. what is bang chan going to do when he finally works up the nerve to write his number on the sleeve of your coffee cup, only for you to toss it away without ever seeing it? (coming to your shelves December 10th)
☁︎︎ ROSE ☁︎︎
LEE KNOW was famous for being the star quarterback turned heartless bachelor—or so everybody thought. nobody could have guessed that the reason minho chased every woman away was because, hidden 60 miles from home, there was the animal shelter where he volunteered. the reason he drove an hour every day to nurture abused pets? you. what is minho going to do when, no matter how many roses he gives you, you just can’t take the hint? (coming to your shelves soon...)
☁︎︎ MOTORCYCLE ☁︎︎
︎SEO CHANGBIN. there’s nothing he loves more than his motorcycle—well, that’s not entirely true. he probably loves you more, but his motorcycle is certainly a close second. with prom looming, changbin finally gathers enough courage to ask out his long-time crush and childhood best friend. what is changbin going to do when, halfway through, he chickens out—and, in a panic, ends up ramming his motorcycle into your mailbox while trying to back out of your driveway? (coming to your shelves soon...)
☁︎︎ MY MUSE ☁︎︎
HWANG HYUNJIN has been in love with you for about as long as he’s understood the word love; stuck in the seat beside you since elementary school, hyunjin grew to adore the soft curves of your features. one day, in the middle of art class, he's struck with the urge to draw you. overcome with the fear of never getting the chance to tell you how he feels, hyunjin stuffs the picture in your locker. what is hyunjin going to do when he overhears you talking to your friends about the drawing—and you mention his enemy's name, and not his? (coming to your shelves soon...)︎︎
☁︎︎ LYRIC BOOK ☁
HAN JISUNG is dedicated to securing the top spot in his songwriting class, and nothing is going to stand in his way. that was, until three years ago, when you walked through the door, head held high, speaking of your goals as if they were already part of the present. jisung never thought there would be any competition—until there was. now, he doesn’t know whether to write songs about his overwhelming hatred or his overwhelming ardor. what is jisung going to do when, one day, you’re paired with him for a project, and you discover all the love songs he’s written about you? (coming to your shelves soon...)
☁︎︎ SUGAR AND SPICE ☁︎︎
LEE FELIX, the school's sunshine, the universe’s fallen star—nothing was going to get him down. well, except for you. no matter how hard he tries, felix just can’t form a sentence around you; his tongue twisting into sailor’s knots whenever you look his way. what is felix going to do when he tries to confess through a cake, baked fresh in the culinary class you share, but trips over his shoelaces and smears the cake all over your shirt instead? (coming to your shelves soon...)
☁︎︎ BASEBALL ☁
KIM SEUNGMIN worked with a focus nobody else seemed to reciprocate, constantly practicing to be the best pitcher this world has ever seen. his teammates respected him, his coach loved him, and the school only ever saw his poised manners—not the awkward teenager he really was. that is, until he meets you—equally shy and almost as painfully awkward, studying on the bleachers every day after school. there's something about your concentration, the self- assured direction you set for yourself, that makes him want you even more. what is he going to do when, one day after practice, he scrawls his number on a ball and chucks it toward you? and for once, the ball doesn’t go where he aimed. instead of landing in your lap, he nails you right in the forehead. (coming to your shelves soon...)
☁︎︎ THE BOOK WAS BETTER ☁︎︎
YANG JEONGIN lived in the library. on the days when he wasn’t cramming for an exam, he was relaxing with a good book. the library had always been peaceful for him—a sanctuary that students rarely ever touched. that is, until one random morning, he sees you walk in—captain of the cheerleading squad, with your tiny skirt and sparkly eyelids, jeongin almost expects you to laugh at him and his pathetic seating arrangement—all alone. but then, checking to see if anyone’s watching, you pull a book from the shelf, and begin to read it. that's how it started—now, every day during lunch, you come and read your book, safe in the shadows, creating a home nobody else knew about. what is he going to do when he starts falling for you, through the notes he slips into your book after you leave? And what will happen when the wrong girl comes in and tries to take the book? (coming to your shelves soon...)
a special thank you to @jeonginsleftcheek who helped me flesh out all these ideas. I couldn't do any of this without you!! I hope you like these stories <33

Lobotomy husbands fic cuz ive been waiting on making this until i drew the rest of the fucked up zodiac member clone group but yeah no i need them now. Also heyy this is technically their first actual interaction since i've been going on and on about them being husbands yet i haven't written them properly interacting except for that one intro thing.
Title - Perfect Day in the Perfect World
Bill watches Ford do some paperwork for his Oregon Institute of Oddology company as he waits for him to finish work so that he can finally spend time together with his genius. The triangle grins happily at Ford with his eye,who then gives him a tired smile in return as he yawns while going back to filling out forms in order to give other businesses permission to use his company's useful gadgetry. Bill keeps supervising his researcher husband while floating at his side as he kept grinning,but then he noticed the man shaking as he held the pen in his hand. Crushing it in his fist as the ink splattered everywhere. The genius keeps looking at the mess he made in a tired daze before realizing what had happened as Bill then floated closer toward him in concern,summoning a cloth to help Ford clean up the mess before he could do anything himself.
"Fordsy,what the heck was that?. Are you okay?,maybe you should take a break." Bill asks as he took a worried glance toward the man who just dismissively waved his hand at his triangular partner in order to assure him that he's fine. "I'm fine,my dear muse. I think that three days of trying to fill out these papers ever since Fiddleford decided that we should take turns is getting to me,i just need some rest and i'll be in tip top shape. I'll be with you in bed in a bit after i get these done." Ford explains as the isosceles still looks at him in concern but he lets it slide as his Fordsy has always been this stubborn.
"Fine. Don't overwork yourself too hard,Sixer. I'll be waiting~." Bill remarks as the flirty comment makes the man chuckle,with him floating away after he had finished wiping off his genius' inky mess. The triangle waits for a few minutes,which later turned into a few hours as he groans while bored out of his mind trying to wait for Ford. 'I wonder what he's doing now. He's taking a long time over there,although fleshbag work has always been lengthy and all. And that weird outburst.. I didn't look into his thoughts this time,but the way he started shaking before he destroyed the pen made it very clear that he was pretty stressed. I'm the reason why he's like this. I think that part of the reason why he's been so stressed lately is because of the aching feeling that there's something wrong with his life,and it's eating him up from the inside.' Bill thought to himself as he realized that the reason why Ford has been recently acting weird and high strung was actually him,he was the problem.
Although he wasn't willing to confront the fact that he had to deal with said problem,as that meant letting go of Ford. The isosceles then sighed as he brushed off that thought and kept waiting for his genius in the bedroom so that they could sleep together.
Only for him to hear glass shattering from the man's office as he then quickly floated over to the other room as he then prepared to blast flames at the intruder who entered their condo,but he then realizes that there's no threat after seeing that there was no intruder and just Ford himself staring at a broken vase while disoriented as he then ceased the fire from his hands. "Ford,what happened?." Bill asks as he looked at his genius in concern once more. "Oh uh. I accidentally knocked into a vase while zoning out again. Luckily,none of the glass got onto my hands or face. I'm okay,Bill." Ford replied as he gave his triangle a tired smile,snapping out of his dissociative daze.
"Oh.. He's disassociating again. That's a problem." Bill says as he voices his thoughts outloud,replying more to himself than his genius. "What?. What problem?." Ford questions,confused about what his husband just said. "Uhh nevermind. I'm glad that you're okay. I honestly thought that some dumb idiot tried to break into our house,but it was just your silly goose messing up again." Bill remarks as he then snapped his fingers to fix the vase as it then returned to it's original state on the small table near Ford. Ford then smiled at his dear muse while looking at him with adoring eyes,being glad that the triangle still loves him even in his difficult mental state.
"You know my muse,i'm happy to know that you still care about me even in my.. unstable mental state. I'm sorry to bother you with my mistakes when your All Seeing Greatness should be used for extraordinary things rather than my mortal failings." Ford says while looking at the isosceles in slight guilt,as he deems that a mere mortal like him pales in comparison to the brilliance of his near-god husband as the triangle's eye widens in surprise over the man's comment. "Fordsy,you're never a bother to me. You're my husband and i love you. I'll take care of you and deal with your mistakes for as long as you live." Bill reassures while he gave the man a gentle smile as the genius lets out a light chuckle,not expecting anything else from his husband but sheer adoration as he feels comforted by the triangle's words.
"Good then. Now let's go sleep,hm?. I finished the paperwork as i was heading out to bed earlier." Ford replied as Bill nodded while the triangle grabs his hand and holds it tight as the two walk over to the bedroom,or more like Bill floats and Ford walks alongside him. Bill makes it to the bed as Ford then begins to undo his tie after taking off his labcoat while the triangle watches him as he waited for his researcher husband to lay beside him as the man tiredly smiles at him once more but then before he could fully take off his tie,he feels a sharp pain in his skull as he groans in pain while beginning to dissociate as he clutches his own head while the triangle immediately comes to his aid as he asks him what's wrong only to get no response as he realizes what's happening. "Fordsy?. Fordsy?!. What happened?!." Bill exclaims but then he stops once he gets no response,watching as the man stares at the ground in an unfocused daze as he realizes that the man is dissociating again.
The triangle then resorts to shaking him back to normal since he knew the exact reason why this is happening,the constant memory erasure that he kept subjecting his poor genius to and so he figured that trying to erase things again would only make the problem worse. 'I shouldn't have resorted to memory erasing to fix every argument or problem we ever had. I just want him to be happy,but i never wanted it to turn out like this. The fixed state of my reality warping powers is getting rejected by his mind,and it's destroying him from the inside.' Bill thought to himself as he tearfully kept trying to shake his husband back into his original state. Then it clicked. As if a switch was flipped,Ford snaps out of his dissociative daze and blinks as he looks at the crying isosceles while a bit disoriented from the dissociative episode.
Ford's expression softens as he took a guilty glance at the triangle as he caressed his face,gently rubbing his finger over Bill's tears. "You're crying.. I did it again,didn't i? I had another episode. I'm sorry,my dear muse. I can't keep worrying you like this." Ford remarks as the triangle then hugs him as he smiled at his triangular husband. "It's okay. I just thought that you wouldn't come back this time,i thought that you broke permanently. This is a problem even my powers can't fix,but that's fine as long as you still get to be with me." Bill explains with a tinge of guilt,knowing that he caused this as he then stopped crying once he felt his genius' warm embrace. "I guess so. I'd be glad to keep being with you even with my broken mind,my dear muse. My triangle. My dearest Cipher~." Ford says as he then pulled away from the embrace as he kissed the isosceles straight on the eye mouth as he blushed,deciding to make up for those upsetting episodes by giving his beloved a tender kiss. Bill kisses back as he then lightly makes out with the genius,dragging him to the bed so that they could make out more comfortably. The two keep going at it for a while as various passionate groans and whimpers fill the room,but then after a while Bill realizes that his husband hasn't slept in three days yet he's putting all of his energy on him. He then pulls away in order to let the man sleep as the genius looks in confusion.
"Oh?. I thought we were going to take it a bit further?~." Ford asks as he slyly looks at the isosceles. "Yeah,but you need your rest. Do i need to remind you that you haven't had any proper sleep in three days,Fordsy?." Bill remarks as the genius looks up at him in slight embarrassment as he realizes that he does need rest and that he ended up letting himself get a bit too carried away with his husband. "Ah,right. I apologize,your intoxicating taste was too tempting~." Ford explains as the triangle then blushed from the comment. "Oh stop it. Now,sleep." Bill demands as the researcher complied and took off his sweater vest as well as his tie,only leaving his red collar shirt as he then laid beside the triangle who put on his own sleepwear in the form of a night cap with a snap of his fingers. Ford then shut his eyes as he embraced the triangle who turned off the light with a finger snap,with him shutting his own eye as well as the two went to sleep. Only Bill didn't fall asleep,he stayed up thinking about how he could make it up to his genius since he outright caused his mind to be shattered with the constant memory erasure. But then he had an idea. 'I feel terrible for basically breaking Fordsy's mind with the memory erasing. I need to make it up to him,even if he doesn't know why i'll be doing it. I need to make him happy,i need to fix this even for a little bit. Aha. I'll plan a day just for him,with all of his favorite things and favorite places. a Perfect Day in the Perfect World.' Bill thought to himself as he then let himself rest,planning to wake up early in order to plan out the day for his beloved.
The following day,Bill wakes up and slowly moves away from his genius' arms as the man continues sleeping while being unaware of his husband's great plan for him. He then goes over to the kitchen and summons all of Ford's favorite breakfast dishes such as jellybean cereal nutella waffles cream and strawberry crepes et cetera. Then he books a science museum a space observatory for stargazing a taxidermy center for extinct cryptid specimens and various other nerdy places for his genius. And a gift in the form of a light show that'll activate with a snap of his fingers,the light show will draw out Ford's favorite constellation "William" onto the sky via his flames. Plus he had Fiddleford deal with the company's duties for now,thus leaving the Oregon Institute of Oddology to the hillbilly and giving Ford a day off. Now that everything is done and all planned out,the triangle then waits for his researcher husband to wake up as he sat there in his chair at the kitchen while looking through the man's Journals to pass the time.
After about three hours of waiting,Ford finally wakes up at 8am as he yawns and stretches while walking down the spiral stairs. Bill grins as his eye shines brightly from being overjoyed to see his beloved as the man tiredly waves at him while smiling as he sits down in his chair. "Good morning,my dear muse.." Ford says groggily as he slumps his head on the table,not yet realizing the copious amounts of breakfast that the triangle has prepared for him. "Good morning,Fordsy!. How did you sleep?." Bill asks in a chipper tone,excited to spend the day with his beloved. "I slept well.. Still a bit tired though.. But i'm happy to see you." Ford replied as he then smiled at the triangle as he then walked over to hug him,kissing him on the forehead as he put him in a tight embrace as Bill blushed.
The man then noticed the several plates of breakfast littering the table,as he realized that they're all his favorite dishes while still hugging his husband. "My muse,you did all of this for me?." Ford questions as he eyed the various dishes on the table. "Yup!. They're all for you. And i have more surprises planned for today,as i want to give you a day off with just us since i noticed how stressed you were yesterday." Bill explains as the researcher's eyes widen in shock as he then lightly chuckles from the triangle's grand gesture. "I'm glad that you're always thinking of me. I'm happy to have you as my partner,Bill." Ford remarks as he smiled while the isosceles smiled back. "Of course. I love you Fordsy and i'll take any opportunity to show it. And me too. Now eat up,we have a big day ahead of us." Bill replied as the genius nods as he then let go of his beloved as he sat back in his chair to eat the glorious feast the triangle has prepared for him while his triangular husband watches him with an adoring eye.
Ford finishes his food after a while and Bill offers to do the dishes for him despite the fact that he could easily snap the plates back to normal,the genius wanted to do it but Bill insisted that he let him do something for him since he compromises so much for him so Ford let him. After that,the married couple have a blast at the Gravity Falls Science Museum and finish enjoying all of the exhibits before noon as Bill happily listened to Ford ramble about each one according to their topics. By the time noon comes around,Bill and Ford have lunch at a fancy restaurant elsewhere in Oregon where the triangle insists that he let the man choose every dish since the day is for him after all and he obliged as they have a wonderful meal while discussing the past stories they had together. They then go stargazing at the Portland Observatory and the couple have fun naming every constellation together while Ford teased Bill every time he got one wrong,they stayed there until they realized it was evening/late afternoon. Then Bill took him to the Salem Taxidermy Center to look at a bunch of extinct cryptid taxidermy specimens,where Ford happily studied and rambled about every exhibit. The two then went to the other nerdy places that Bill booked for them both,spending time together while not caring about how late at night it was. Then before they went home,the two had fun talking at a bar while getting absolutely inebriated although more so Ford than Bill as the man decided to use his de-atomizer gun to vaporize the members of a bar fight there in his drunken stupor. He would've killed literally everyone there if Bill hadn't intervened and by intervened i mean he reversed the vaporizing bar fight with his new ability to control time itself.
Bill then had to take a very drunk Ford back to their condo before the man killed anyone else with his de-atomizer gun,with him carrying the man bridal style while floating back home as the genius incoherently rambled about how much he loved the triangle. "I love you,Bill." Ford remarks as he absentmindedly poked the isosceles' bowtie a few times while still being carried. "Fordsy,this is the billionth time you've said that." Bill says in slight annoyance as he kept floating back to their condo. "I know,but it's true. You deserve to *hic* hear it more than once~." Ford teases as the triangle blushes in response. He then recalls how much fun he had with his beloved muse the whole day,smiling at the thought of his husband doing all of that for him despite the fact that a mere mortal like him is unworthy of such treatment (Ford ur secret insecurities are showing).
"Why did *hic* you do this for me?. The whole day i mean. Besides wanting to spend time with me without any work in the way " Ford asks,genuinely curious about his beloved's reasoning for planning such a fantastic day as the triangle arrives in front of the condo only to stop to respond to his genius. "Well,i wanted to make you happy. Since that.. problem regarding your broken mind upset you,and me,both of us really. I wanted to give us both a break from dealing with that." Bill explains as he then put the man down,putting him in a side hug in order to stop him from stumbling. "Oh.. But my muse,you already make me happy just by being here with me." Ford replied,a little saddened by the thought of his dearest feeling obligated to fix things because of that unstable mind of his but he appreciated his efforts regardless. "I know. But i wanted to plan a special day for my special man anyway~." Bill flirts as the man blushed in response.
"Ah. I'm so glad that you notice whenever i'm upset,and that you do everything in your power to make it better. You're a wonderful husband,Bill." Ford says as he smiled at the triangle,who smiled back at him. "I know. Now let's go home and talk a little bit about our fun day before going to bed. And maybe get a little frisky~." Bill teased as the genius blushed even deeper,although this time the redness of his face isn't coming from the alcohol and rather from the arousal he felt from the thought of getting to be pleasured by his muse again after a while of not being able to feel the triangle's hands on him due to his CEO work. "O-Okay. As you wish,my dearest husband." Ford remarks as the triangle then helped him walk back to their house but then Bill remembered that he had another surprise left for his genius so he stopped floating as he then snapped his fingers,the "William" constellation being drawn out in the night sky with his flames as the man looks up in awe. "Ta-da!. It's your favorite,the constellation that looks a lot like a certain charming triangle~. I decided to show it to you since you can't see it normally anymore with the clouds and all." Bill explains as the man then kissed him on the cheek as thanks as he then blushed gold. "Thank you,my dear muse. For all of the wonderful surprises you gave me today,including this one." Ford replied as he then smiled at Bill,who grinned back at him.
"You're welcome,Fordsy. I love you." Bill remarks as the man embraced him. "I love you too. We should go home now. I'm hungry for a steak dinner,and for you~." Ford teases as the triangle blushed even deeper than his genius was as he knew what the man meant by that,then they kept walking back to the condo as Bill summoned a steak dinner while not being able to wait to fuck Ford as he desperately fidgeted in his chair. The man chuckles as he saw how antsy his dear muse was,making sure to eat up fast so that he won't wait for long. He then finished up his steak as Bill snapped his fingers to reverse the plates back to their clean state,then he quickly teleported him and Ford to the bedroom while then removing the man's clothes with a snap of his fingers. The triangle eyed the man hungrily as Ford blushed and panted at the thought of being touched by his beloved again after a while of not experiencing his hands on his member due to work,with Bill chuckling as the genius already wet the bed when he hasn't touched him yet. Bill then put his finger on the man's lips to signal him to quiet down his whimpers,while looking at him slyly as he knew that they're going to he at this for a while.

Light summer breeze. Petals falling down in the most satisfying way, pooling at your feet as you walk to the beat of your heart, holding the handle of your umbrella tight enough to whiten your knuckles.
The crickets were out now that the darkness had fallen, a slight drizzle of rain warming your blood. You were wearing an oversized sweater and some shorts that were hidden underneath the fabric you wore on your upper half, a pair of old sneakers to match.
You had decided to take a late night walk, eyes red and puffy from too much crying. You had been having some boy trouble and had been embarrassed in front of probably your whole university, so crying was the only way to make you feel less shitty, and no one could tell you otherwise. You had been walking for a few minutes and stopped by your favorite café near Han River, going to stand over the bridge running over the river after ordering yourself some coffee. You were sniffing the air with closed eyes when you suddenly opened them to what you had assumed was an angel, before you realized that he didn't have wings.
He was wearing a creamy beige turtle neck sweater and jeans with ankle high boots, his black hair falling very gently into his face and accentuating his jawline as he watched the water as if it was the most interesting thing on earth. He had a see-through umbrella over his shoulder, the fairy lights that were attached to it only making him look that much more angelic, if it were possible.
You continued shamelessly staring at the gorgeous stranger, eventually wandering over and standing next to him.
"Penny for your thoughts, stranger?" you asked in a light voice, a warm smile adorning your face.
The angel turned to look at you slowly, eyes jumping around questioningly, as if to ask "Who? Me?"
You immediately decide that this angel was cute and that you wanted to keep him, your smile getting wider. Just a few hours ago you had embarrassed yourself in front of everyone you knew while talking to a boy that you liked, yet here you were making it seem effortless.
"Do I know you?" He asked in the most honey like voice you had ever heard, the sound strangely addictive. Still smiling, you shook your head with a shrug.
"Not at all." You giggled childishly at the way his brow furrowed in confusion, at his mercy, completely helpless to his charms. "I just noticed the way you were staring at the water and you look like you're thinking very deeply about something," you explained, heart jumping into his hands when he laughed in disbelief, tilting his head at you with a smile.
"Is that so?"
You nodded, your cheeks starting to ache from smiling too much.
"Why don't I tell you over a cup of coffee, since we're at a café?" he asked cheekily, a grin pulling at his lips.
You nodded eagerly, taking his hand and pulling him over to the seating area. You turned to look at him with a grin of your own before saying, "Great idea! I've already ordered."
---
After sitting down he introduced himself as Kang Younghyun, occasionally called Brian by his close friends, who was majoring in Business at your university with Music as his extra classes. You told him your name, telling him that you’re majoring in Writing, hoping to become an editor (since you weirdly enough enjoy editing), and that you were taking art and music as extra classes.
"So then, Younghyun, you sill haven't answered my first question," you said matter-of-factly, sipping at your latte with a raised brow.
"Oh, that? I thought that was you flirting?" he mused with a smirk, the teasing tone in his voice making you chortle.
"Oh no it was, but I'm genuinely curious," you said, chortling at the way he laughed disbelievingly.
"I was thinking about how I need to man up and ask this girl I like in my music class out." he said, shrugging as he sighed deeply.
"Oh, you like someone?" you asked dejectedly, playing with your coffee cup. Brian nodded, sighing again.
"Well then," you said, slamming your fist against the table and gaining not only Younghyun's attention but a few people around you's attention as well.
"I say, go for it! I doubt you have anything to lose," you encouraged him confidently. He raised a brow with a smirk, looking at you as if to say "excuse me what?"
You rolled your eyes before starting to explain.
"Listen, Brian—can I call you Brian?"
"Go ahead." He smiled.
"Right then, Brian, listen. You seriously have nothing to lose. Maybe a smudge of pride but that's nothing. I mean have you seen yourself? I'm sure every girl would be willing to throw themselves at you, hell, sign me up!" you rambled on, hands all over the place and not realizing the way Younghyun was looking at you.
"You really think so?" he asked softly, making you think of a puppy, your heart melting.
You nodded solemnly, smiling at him.
"Definitely."
With the most shit eating grin ever, he cleared his throat. "Okay, then. Y/N, I really like you and would like to take you to dinner."
“Oh, shit.”

NSFW Alphabet - Hector Carlisle and Karlach Cliffgate
Tagged by @bardic-inspo - thank you! c:
NSFW Alphabet
Honestly I don't know which of my mutuals who I normally tag in OC stuff do and don't feel comfortable with this sort of thing, so I'm gonna do an open tag! If you're reading this and want to do this meme, do it! And tag me in your answers. :)
18+ nsfw content under the cut for obvious reasons. XD
Hector and Karlach!
(Almost did this for Rasaad and Jaheira because they've been rotating in my head a lot lately but maybe that will be another post if there's interest. XD )
Some of this is new for me to think about, but a lot of it is based on things that happen in Prayers and Hellfire and Quiet Zone.
A = Aftercare (What they’re like after sex)
Massive snugglefest. XD Karlach does take a mildly dominant role most of the time but it's always a v soft vibe between them so the drop is minimal, but both of them are always very high on the endorphins and very much wanting to be close. (This is the case always, really, though - being able to touch each other at all always feels like a tremendous gift under the circumstances.)
B = Body part (Their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)
I haven't written about this yet (it's on the never-ending to-do list) but Hector comes to be both entertained and fascinated by Karlach's tail - especially when he discovers that it is very sensitive on the underside right at the base.
Karlach, if asked this question, would immediately joke that she likes hs ass and his tongue, but the truth is she finds his eyes mesmerizing.
C = Cum (Where does your muse prefer to cum/have someone cum?)
Almost always inside. Hector definitely likes this best as it feels very intense and intimate and lets him give up any sense of his usual discipline, but he would change it up if Karlach asked him to. Luckily, though, she feels the same way, and after her raunchy adventures in her youth in Baldur's Gate she's very familiar with cleric services available to make sure nothing comes of it.
(This does mean she ends up bugging Shadowheart a lot until they get to the city. Shadowheart grumbles a lot about this.)
D = Dirty secret (Pretty self explanatory: a dirty secret of theirs)
Honestly, I don't think the two of them have many secrets between them? Hector is fairly reserved but Karlach could tell him she wants basically anything and he would be ready to give it a go.
They did basically pine excessively for each other in secret all the way up until Act 2 bc Hector never got Karlach's Act 1 romance scene. :P
E = Experience (How experienced are they? Do they know what they’re doing?)
Hector has never had sex before his first time with Karlach. Karlach has a tremendous amount of experience from her youth but is ten years out of practice.
Consequently, Karlach definitely knows what she's doing in a physical sense and is not shy about telling him exactly what she wants - and he is happy for the guidance. But even for her, their relationship is new ground in a lot of ways; she's never had a long-term relationship before, or one where the sex was so grounded in love.
So in that sense they're both equally inexperienced and the whole thing is very much a learning process. (I should make a note to write fic at some point about some bit of miscommunication or something that eventually happens because there's no way it's smooth sailing all the way through. XD )
F = Favorite position (This goes without saying)
"I want to ride you till you see stars," as Karlach says. She's often on top, which Hector enjoys; he likes feeling the intensity of her weight on him. (He's fully aware that she could snap him in half and he's only human and definitely finds that part of the appeal. XD )
Sometimes, though (as in Prayers and Hellfire), Karlach just really wants Hector to take control and blow her back out, and then they'll usually go for missionary. Hector likes this too - basically he prefers any position where he can look in her eyes during the whole experience.
Karlach also very much enjoys being fucked up against a wall, although their relative heights make this a little challenging sometimes. Once they're staying at the House of Hope during their Avernus campaign post-game, they find a lovely little corner of one of the bedrooms that has a molding lip at about Karlach's waist height, allowing her to lean against it to comfortably get a little lower and let Hector work her over, and it becomes their favorite part of the whole place.
G = Goofy (Are they more serious in the moment? Are they humorous? etc.)
It's not by accident that in Prayers and Hellfire their first time coming together is marked by laughter. :) (And basically all of Quiet Zone is marked by humor on some level.)
Hector is not a very goofy person by nature, and he does see sex (and sex with her specifically) as a sort of sacred act of connection, caring, service. But Karlach is a goofy person, and he enjoys that aspect of her very much - and she brings it out in him more than most people, too. So laughter and teasing are definitely a big part of their intimate moments together in almost all cases.
I think there are definitely individual times when it is more serious, however. There's certainly more than one time in their post-game Avernus adventures where the sex is coming in the aftermath of one of them having been in danger/injured. And probably there are times when Hector's comforting Karlach away from bad memories of her ten-year conscription and the loneliness it entailed - times when the act itself is a lot more emotional.
H = Hair (How well groomed are they? Does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)
I'm with those who headcanon that Karlach doesn't bother shaving anywhere. Maybe she did back in the city, but certainly not in Avernus - why would she? - and the habit definitely never came back. Hector is not bothered by this; it's fully something he never had any occasion to give any thought to prior to knowing her, and he doesn't intend to start now. I don't think she has super thick body hair (I don't really see tieflings as having it in general), but what she does have is dark like her head hair.
Hector has lived a very disciplined lifestyle and as such takes pretty rigorous care of himself in terms of cleanliness and personal grooming. He has a medium amount of body hair, also very dark and speckled with grey like his beard and head.
Not quite the intention of the question but Karlach also really enjoys his beard. She likes to fidget with it and feel the texture of it when they're lying around snuggling. c:
I = Intimacy (How are they during the moment? The romantic aspect)
They are such enormous saps for each other it's not even funny. XD And given the way their relationships started, the whole thing is VERY about touch, even more than it would be for most people. No matter what position they're in it's always about being pressed very closely together so as much of them is touching as possible. As mentioned above, Hector really likes being able to look into her eyes and feel as connected as he can during the whole experience.
J = Jack off (Masturbation headcanon)
Masturbation was Hector's only sexual release for his whole life before he met Karlach and it was always something that had to be pretty furtive and secret. He doesn't really have much occasion to do it once they're together, given Karlach's libido, but a few times he does end up pleasuring himself in their tent on nights when she's too tired/injured from some adventure to really participate.
The first time this happens, she notices it - and also notices the fact that he's trying to be subtle/quiet/unnoticed, out of habit from how he would do it in the monastery. And, even though she's too wrecked to actually get involved, she nudges him to not be secretive about it and let her watch and it ends up being a surprisingly intense moment for both of them.
...This would make a really good ficlet. [scribbles notes]
K = Kink (One or more of their kinks)
This feels weird to say given how horndog Karlach is, but I actually don't see either of them as being particularly kinky? I don't think either of them has quite the imagination for coming up with real off-the-wall approaches to sex. XD Karlach describes her earlier sexual escapades as "if it moves, climb aboard", which doesn't suggest a very nuanced and varied approach, and Hector knows basically nothing and is operating primarily on instinct.
Consequently I think the closest they get to kinky stuff is the sort of soft-dom-Karlach dynamic they fall into right from the get-go, though occasionally they do end up experimenting with reversing the roles.
L = Location (Favorite places to do the do)
Anywhere? Karlach's not particularly picky, certainly. XD
Between camp life and post-game Avernus adventures, they definitely learn to be kind of undiscerning in what constitutes ideal conditions for sex. However - moments like the Act 3 romance scene, where they're actually able to get true privacy and take their time, consequently become very important to both of them. It's not really about exactly where they are, but about having that situation of being entirely to themselves for a while and not having to think about anything else.
M = Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going?)
They're both pretty good at getting each other excited simply by existing. XD Some turn-ons though:
Post-battle adrenaline (especially anything where one of them caught the other being a badass)
As mentioned in Quiet Zone, Karlach finds it really hot when Hector gets into super focused thinky mode. (She would have jumped his bones after the Ansur chess puzzle if the circumstances had allowed.)
Also based on Quiet Zone, I think Hector quite enjoys being distracted by her when he's in the middle of something (as long as it's not something critically important). Something about having his life of cerebral pursuits interrupted by emotion letting himself get swept up in her raw physical power over him. This pairs well with Karlach who loves watching him try (and fail) to keep control of himself in these situations.
(Hm. Maybe I'm changing my answer slightly on the "kink" section; I feel like maybe they'd enjoy one of those situations where he's trying to work on something and she's under the desk. XD )
N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)
Given Karlach's history with being conscripted and trapped, I don't think either of them would ever even think about anything involving restraints, degradation, humiliation. It's all very much about being excited and supportive and safe with each other. (I do have a fic in mind involving Hector taking charge and giving her orders in a sort of military vein, but it would be very much about removing that bad situation's power over her and making it a safe thing between them, and never about any real power play.)
O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)
As evidenced in Prayers and Hellfire, Hector is an ENTHUSIASTIC giver right from the get-go. It's a big moment for him in that fic when he realizes that sex is powerful because it's a way that he can make the woman he loves feel incredibly good, and he absolutely loves to lose himself in that "sacred duty" in every way possible.
Karlach enjoys returning the favor but Hector is on another level with it. XD I don't think he's extraordinarily skilled at first (things go so well in Prayers and Hellfire less because he knows what he's doing and more because they're madly in love and Karlach is so excited to be getting anything after ten years), but he's a fast learner and takes direction very well.
P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)
Really depends on the night. Sometimes when they're both worn out or feeling particularly sentimental, it'll be a slow, drowsy, exploratory sort of process. But probably more often they're pretty intense; I'm not sure "rough" is quite the right word, but... "fierce"? Generally they just want each other real bad and don't see any point in holding back. :D
Q = Quickie (Their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)
Once they're together in Act 2, they are definitely having sex a LOT when the occasion permits - but most of it is in camp and consequently has to be somewhat furtive. So they have no shortage of quick romps when a brief window of time emerges. :P As mentioned above, they both prefer when they can really get some privacy and take their time - but circumstances often don't permit that to be the case, so quickies are very much on the menu in between.
R = Risk (Are they game to experiment? Do they take risks? etc.)
Game? Yes. Do they? Not really. Again, as mentioned above, I don't see either of them as being incredibly imaginative in this regard. It's about the closeness in any form and they're less concerned about specifics.
(But Karlach literally just has to say the word on any idea she has and Hector is there for it. :D )
S = Stamina (How many rounds can they go for? How long do they last?)
Hehehe. Hector is a monk. XD His body is his weapon and his tool and he grew up in an enviroment dedicated to self-denial, self-control, discipline, and physical training. This man's stamina is legendary.
Unfortunately, as previously mentioned, most of the time they don't really have time to take full advantage of this since their time is usually a bit limited. But on the occasions when they can - such as the Act 3 sex scene - Hector definitely takes her for enough rounds that she's walking funny the next day. XD Karlach is suitably impressed, because her libido is such that it takes some doing to make her feel fully spent.
T = Toys (Do they own toys? Do they use them? On a partner or themselves?)
Hm.
As I discovered by accident while flycamming the Act 3 sex scene, Hector does enjoy butt stuff. XD So he might actually be down to get pegged. That said, whether it actually happens much, I don't know. I don't think I see them as using toys all that much, to be honest - not out of unwillingness but just because it doesn't come up.
U = Unfair (How much they like to tease)
Karlach likes teasing Hector a lot (as evidenced in Quiet Zone) because she likes seeing him get worked up and struggling to keep composure - and how fierce and intense he gets when it becomes too much to bear.
Hector is a little more direct, I think. When he's giving her pleasure, that's his primary focus and he's like a guided missile.
V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)
As mentioned, a lot of their adventures are in camp, so there's a certain amount of emphasis on having to stay quiet. (It always amuses me when I read fics with secret trysts in camp where there's lots of moaning and crying out happening. That is no longer a secret tryst; those tents are canvas which is not known for its soundproofing capabilities. XD )
Hector is better at the quiet than Karlach is. He tends to get very focused and internalized during the whole experience and everything comes out in little intense whimpers rather than real loud noises most of the time. Karlach is much more vocal and has to put a significant amount of effort into not screaming loud enough to wake everyone up; she does a pretty good job most of the time but nevertheless everyone is fully aware of what is happening.
Post-game in Avernus Hector takes a few more levels in cleric and gets hold of the Silence spell which helps the situation. XD
W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)
Following on from the above - there is a potential monk line which the player can get when sleeping with the drow prostitutes in Sharess's Caress: [MONK] "I stop breathing sometimes when I'm focused. Don't disrupt me, I'm in control."
This definitely happens to Hector at some points - sometimes when he's pleasuring Karlach or they're fucking, but most often when she's focusing on him for the moment. There's a hint of this in Quiet Zone:
It doesn’t take long before he’s hard as a rock in her hand, the heat of his skin against hers rivaling the sweltering Avernus air around them. The rest of his body, still trapped between her and the bookshelf, has gone limp; his weight sags back into her, his head rolling into the crook of her neck. His eyes are closed, lips slightly parted, focusing on her touch with absolute, intense concentration.
He doesn't quite reach the no-breathing point in that fic but in similar scenarios it can definitely happen, and it scares the shit out of Karlach the first time she notices it. (Hector doesn't think to warn her because I don't think he realizes it could happen. XD )
There'll be a fic about this at some point.
X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)
Both of them are supremely fit people, although in different ways. Hector's body is all lean muscle, slender and quick, and he's considerably smaller than Karlach in bulk as well as in height. He starts the game in a lot of ways pretty unblemished; there are a few scars from his training but not many. However, he starts aquiring more as the game goes on, particularly a very heavy scar across his shoulder from the Myrkul fight which the bone chill effect prevented Shadowheart from healing before the scarring could take root.
He's well enough endowed but not dramatically so; everything about him is a testament to the phrase, "It's all about how you use it."
Karlach, by comparison, is much bigger and more visibly muscular, and her whole body is covered in scarring, tattoos, and the marks of the engine's functioning in her body. THe most striking thing about her when she's naked is that her whole body has the same subtle glowing effect that her visible chest does in game; her breasts and stomach and "intimate areas" all glow with the same effect that you get when putting your fingers over a flashlight.
Hector hates the engine being the reason for it but does think it makes her look even more beautiful.
Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)
Karlach's is higher than Hector's definitely. Hector is almost always willing because his desire for her specifically is always present, but left to his own devices he could go long periods of time without really thinking about sex at all. He'll initiate sometimes but it's Karlach's drive that sets their pace more often.
Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
See the aforementioned snugglefest. Usually they tend to wear each other out pretty hard so the post-game is just curling up very tight together and falling asleep in one of several positions - sometimes Hector gets spooned up against her, sometimes he falls asleep on her chest, or sometimes she'll roll over on top of him and go to sleep on him like a big warm blanket. XD

Writing Interview Tag Game!
Thanks to @aintgonnatakethis for the tag! (I've copied his idea and posted the template in a "read more" if you decide to go ahead and play, so you don't have to pick the questions out from between my answers)
About me
When did you start writing?
I’ve been telling stories since I was old enough to remember words, but probably only writing them down since about high school. Crossover ideas about my favorite characters meeting each other and having adventures have been my bread and butter since I was in the single digits though.
Are there different genres or themes you enjoy reading other than the ones you write?
Oh yeah. There’s plenty of things I think I’m not very good at writing that I love reading, especially really grounded realism and humor. Also I do not have the patience for the really fantastic speculative xenobiology that I absolutely adore reading.
Is there an author you want to emulate, or are compared to often?
Not that I want to emulate. A teacher told me once that my writing reminded her of Danielle Steele, but as I've never read a Danielle Steele novel I'm not sure how accurate that is, or if it even applies anymore because that was 20 years ago. I feel like I tend to emulate whatever author I’ve been reading a lot lately, but I don’t read a lot anymore. I used to really love Patricia Briggs (I mean, I still love the books I've read, Dragon Bones is probably one of my top favorites ever, but I haven't been as impressed with her recent offerings) and I feel like there was a point where a lot of her werewolf psychology bleed over into the way I write Wraith.
Can you tell me a bit about your writing space?
So at the moment I mostly write on my phone at work during breaks. The space is both chaotic and tense, and very boring and low-key. I do final edits on my computer though: that set up involves 2 screens, which is really handy for edit comparisons between an AO3 window and my backup document, and there’s a cat bed under the desk for Bug to hang out.
What’s your most effective way to muster up a muse?
Over the past few years writing has become a way to channel my anxiety about the world, so I tend to write more when I’m anxious or when I’m stuck sitting somewhere that isn’t mentally stimulating but I have enough energy that I’m not completely zonked out.
Did the place(s) you grew up in influence the people and/or places you write about?
Um in a specific sense probably no? I mean, I would say that how you grow up is extremely formative to who you are and what you write and that holds true for me. But specifically the only story influenced by the place I grew up is “Sunlight”; the setting is based on a place near where I grew up on Lake Michigan.
Are there any reoccurring themes in your writing? If so, do they surprise you?
Love will save the day. I don’t mean sex or romance, I mean the affection, compassion, and consideration that humans are capable of having for each other and for creation in all circumstances. And I don't mean “save the day” in a eucatastrophic sense, though I like that too, but that living in love is what saves us as people and reminds us that we are communal creatures who need each other. No, that doesn't surprise me.
Characters
Would you please tell me about your current favorite character?
Lol, well I’m currently obsessed with Tora Ziyal from DS9. I'm planning to abduct her, and Ellia from SGA, and throw a Canon Doesn't Deserve You/Won't Treat You Right party. But that’s a story I’m not actually writing yet, so probably Todd? I’m also kind of currently obsessed with femdom and power dynamics among Wraith, and just generally with Todd’s dynamic with Carter because I feel like there’s a lot that was unexplored there in canon. I have one story for them which I’m posting that's all just sex, and 3 more ideas in various stages of wip that are more adventure bases. Somehow sex is easier to write than plot.
Which of your characters would you be friends with in real life?
lol
Look, I spend my time trying to get into these people's heads to figure out what makes them tick, putting them in Situations, and orchestrating their sex lives. Would you be friends with someone like that???
(For me) the entire point of this is that fictional people are not real, and do not exist in real life.
Which characters would you dislike the most if you met them?
I have 4 different answers for this one....
See above.
2. I feel like the point of these questions is really to ask about Original Characters and... I can't answer that in this case because Spoilers.
3. I feel like the other point is that "dislike" doesn't necessarily mean "hate," but rather "we wouldn't be friends." So, back when I was a 12 year old girlchild with a television, watching Deep Space Nine, I adored Jadzia Dax. Rewatching the show recently I find her far more immature than I remember (though may be it's just because the writers had no idea what they were doing with her), and honestly the more I learn about Curzon Dax the more I think he sounds like an absolute nightmare of a person. I do not think I would be friends with Dax. Not maliciously, just complete incompatibility of personalities.
4. But the fandom answer for characters I hate is: in a general Stargate sense, I utterly loathe both Frank Simmons and Lucius Lavin and would most certainly throw garbage at them if I existed in the stargate EU and happened to meet them. In addition I loathe Naraku from Inuyasha, would plot to murder the Head Founder from DS9, and would certainly cheer for anyone in The Last Kingdom who stabbed Aethelwold repeatedly and left him to be eaten by wild dogs.
Tell me about the process of coming up with your characters?
When I have a role that needs to be filled or a scene that needs to be populated with a character, I create a background character to fill it, who then tends to take over my brain and develop all sorts of traits. The process can vary a lot from character to character, but I'll use Sara as an example.
I start with the problem: I need an OC who will present Ronon with an unconventional take on the Wraith in order to help him shift his worldview. This needs to be someone whom he does not find physically threatening. Also they need to have had an opportunity to develop a relationship with the Wraith, likely with a single specific one. So, most likely I'm looking at a child, and an orphan, and they will need to be cut off from other humans because of Circumstances in order to have the opportunity to bond with the Wraith character. Very early on in developing Sara, I was influence a lot by the character of Rin from Inuaysha, who is an orphan girl who travels with a powerful demon whom most humans fear. I chose the name Sara because it's both a very common name and simple enough to be translated to another galaxy easily. Because I based the character on Rin she is "Japanese"/East Asian when I describe her physical appearance, I imagine her name being pronounced in the Japanese way (both a's with the same vowel sound and a soft "r"), and her people practiced a religion inspired by Shinto. Because I tend to eschew the canon proscription against the existence of queer people, I wrote her as being Asexual and Sapphic, though I had more difficulty than I wanted trying to make that aspect of her character textually obvious, since she doesn't really have the vocabulary to explain it and it's not focal to the plot.
So, this was intended to be a rather side character, but she herself became much more of a central part of the story than I was intending, rather than just the effect she would have on Ronon, which was what was supposed to be the focus of her character's contribution to the story.
Do you notice any reoccurring themes/traits in your characters?
Not really? I do feel like I have to fight harder than with the canon characters to make sure that they don't all share my values and outlook.
Since I mostly write for SGA, and most of the characters already present are cis het white men, when I create characters I usually try to make them… not that in some way. (Though I do also assume that all characters who exist in stories that I write, including canon characters, are bi unless the fic clearly states otherwise.)
How do you picture your characters?
I don’t usually “picture” characters. I guess because the show is already visual I’m bad at remembering to create visual descriptions for the characters I create? Does that make any sense? Or maybe because the story is visual in my head there are parts of it I forget to “export” to the page. When Eos used to beta for me, she would badger me all the time, like “but what do they look like??” and I’ve been a lot better at describing things since then. Though still, I'm not really visual in that way I guess.
My writing
What’s your reason for writing?
There are stories inside of me and they want to come out. There are stories I want to read and no one else is writing them.
Is there any specific comment or type of comment from readers that you find particularly motivating?
All comments are fantastic, but my absolute favorite is when they quote a line from the chapter because 9 times out of 10 my response is “I know!!! I loved that line too!!”
How do you want to be thought about by your readers?
I do not want to be perceived lol
Honestly this is not something I’ve ever really thought about? Like, I hope they enjoy my writing, but I don’t think I care about what they think about me.
What do you feel is your greatest strength as a writer?
Enjoying myself.
What have you been told your greatest strength as a writer is by others?
I used to say my greatest strength was characterization (and I do still believe that any character action or reaction is believable if you justify it correctly in the text) and I used to be a lot more interested in writing stories that aligned with canon or progressed believably from canon. I don’t so much care anymore, though I’ve had several comments praising my characterizations.
How do you feel about your own writing?
I love it. I wrote it for me to read. Even the older stuff that is bad now, it’s great to see how much I’ve grown and changed as a writer, and also how some things stay the same.
If you were the last person on earth, would you still write?
Probably not? The stories exist inside of me. Writing them down only accomplishes two things: 1) allows others to read them and 2) gives the story a static form. Without the need for 1 I don’t think I would bother to write them down, and they would stay in my head and continue to change and evolve and become other stories.
When you write, are you influenced by what others might enjoy reading, do you write purely for yourself, or is it a mix of both?
Both. I write what I want to read, but I do like to push myself to write things I wouldn’t normally try; especially last year I wrote a bunch of prompt fics which was a lot of fun (and also left me with a handful of ideas I couldn't finish but still want to try lol). I also do a lot of read-throughs and edits to try to make sure the story is as good as I can make it because I do want others to be able to enjoy it.

💖hello <3 i'm maddy, 24. let's get the basics out of the way! i rp only on discord, nowhere else. my partners have to be 18+, preferably in their 20s. i am searching for a partner who writes between 300 to 600 words. i will be honest with you, i am not a fast rper or a fast replier. i view this completely as a hobby and i do it when i can; i have a very busy job that takes up a lot of mental energy, so i can't always be around. that being said, i promise i'm an enthusiastic partner and i'll love our plot, i just know lots of people get turned off when it takes a while for someone to reply, so i like being honest up front. wooof! okay. onto the plot...
i am searching for a mxf or mxm dynamic, where i play the m. i've been watching 'the glory' lately on netflix and i've fallen in love with the plot. if you've watched it, great! if you haven't, no worries.
basically, i'm looking to play the well - off husband to a very narcissistic, cruel woman who was a bully in her youth (but plays it off quite well + has never revealed her true self to her husband). they have a child together and have been married for some time. i'd like your character to be one of her victims from high school who has come back into her life to ruin everything the wife holds dear. the bullying would have been extreme, including physical abuse that has left deep scars, once again a la the glory. i want your character to have pursued my muse without any real interest, but has found themselves falling in love with him regardless. i want a slow, tense, drama - filled slow burn. bonus points if we play other characters together (like the wife's friendship group, giving them interesting dynamics and making them feel lived in, too).
if you're interested, please reach out via message or otherwise like this post. i'll be waiting for you <3

Oh, today is apparently my blog's first anniversary. Cheers to many more years to come. Some follow-forevers & shout outs because why not?
@countlessrealities // SCOTTY! You are to blame for my Rick & Morty obsession! I love your blog and your portrayals of every single one of them. While they are mostly busy with making each other's lives a pain, I cherish their relationships and interactions very much! It also makes me happy that you reach out to me so much with memes. I have been a bit afraid of sending memes back because you're so busy and I didn't want to seem overbearing, but know that I'm working on sending you some things this month~

gonna go on a little mini tangent about nimona movie adaptation. it's gonna include lots of spoilers for the graphic novel so if you haven't read it yet (and you should!!) you can just scroll past spoiler free <3 anyways,
first off i am SO fucking pumped up about the nimona movie this is doing things to my middle school heart you have no idea <3 <3 <3 they're definitely branding it in the area of that kind of edgy but family friendly movie vibe that's been popular with certain projects lately (low key some parts of the trailer were giving me mitchells versus the machines while others were giving me the same energy as the bad guys, which is an interesting mix imo they're both good animated movies from the recent past but at the same time they're both tonally different in many ways not to mention very different tonally from the original nimona comic imo) and basically where i'm going with this is i hope they keep the original tone of the comic. the graphic novel does a really great job of shifting between lighthearted comedy and the complex emotions of the characters really well, especially with the twist at the end where we find out that nimona has been lying about her past the entire time (OGH that ending is SO GOOD it gives me chills just remembering the panel where we find out the story about the dragonslayer going after the shapeshifter and the rumors that the shapeshifter TOOK THE DRAGONSLAYERS PLACE??? AUGH those panels are burned into my mind forever). basically i am a little worried because of the marketing that they might soften the darkness associated with nimona's past/backstory or even change it entirely, but of course that's all speculation bc they could literally just be doing what the comic did which was market itself as really upbeat and silly modern fairytale twist and then turn around and make everything really fucking dark as the novel approaches the end of the second act and the beginning of the first act.
also when it comes to the character designs i am OBSESSED with blackheart and goldenloin the designs are SO!!!! not to mention the setting itself, they're definitely leaning into the futuristic aspect but i hope they keep a lot of the down to earth fantasy elements from the comic as well, i feel like nate did a really great job creating a world that is such a unique blend of ren fair fantasy tropes (for lack of a better term) and magical high tech inventions and it's something that i really hope doesn't get lost in the translation to the screen. obviously i can imagine that the show-y-ness of a cyberpunk-esque world is very visually appealing and also probably pretty fun to animate but i'm hoping they're teasing a lot of those dystopian sci fi visuals for the trailer because they get ppls attention and then they bring in a similar mix of the ren fair fantasy elements from the comic.
i hope they maintain nimona's whole gender vibe as the same sort of fluid energy that i got from her in the book, idk if it was just me but nimona reads as not only gnc but as a very nonbinary/genderfluid character and i always thought it was really cool how ready she was to shapeshift to different gender presentations in the comic.
this is more just on the curious musings side but i also wonder if they'll do the little bit where she dyes her hair purple?? its such a weird little moment in the comic i could see them deciding not to put it on screen but i think it'd be a cute nod to the book. or maybe they do a little bit of dialogue where she mentions to blackheart that she's thinking about changing her hair color and mentions purple, it'd just be cute i think <3
uhhh yeah i guess my biggest wonder about the movie rn is just how dark they're willing to take it, tonally? because the book gets DARK and ofc it's also aimed kinda at middle grade, just like the movie is, but what's allowed in middle grade books is very different from what's marketable in a middle grade family friend film. i really do hope they do the whole dark underbelly of the kingdom reveal, though, and the second act arc where nimona's true violent and chaotic nature starts to spiral out of ballister's control, and of course the unethical experimentation and the legend of the shapeshifter and nimona's entire story to ballister being a lie.....
AUGH i am going to get so emotional about this movie but yeah <3
basically. NIMONA MOVIE AT LAST!!!!!!!!!!

I have an undefined yet rather large amount of headworlds that I bounce around and between at any given time, and I can spawn new settings without much trouble. There are so many I stopped keeping count a decade or so ago, some are more major and involved than others, while some are just a scent of an idea.
There is one kinda amorphous rule to the headworlds, though. There's a limited amount of overlap allowed, untill one of the worlds consumes the other one. The amount of overlap is hard to evaluate too, I seem to have very few problems with having multiple separate headworlds that could be categorized as "high fantasy" (or adjacent), while some other qualifiers are really weirdly specific.
The one I've been slowly rolling around lately in the hopes of developing it more later has the defining point of "bunch of colourful weirdoes with common goal who are forced to coexist", and I still haven't quite found what kind of an excuse to use to make that happen. Like previously mused on, some options are to have them be researchers/scientists on a field trip, or a circus or something.
I also thought about making them a ship's crew, because yes pirate aesthetic! And a perfect excuse to have them cohabit in a limited space, just put them on a boat!
However, here's where the overlap problem rises again.
My oldest still existing headworld, one I've already trashed multiple times but one that refuses to stay dead is a "sky pirate" thing, tagged Bloodbride in here. It has existed in one form or another for two decades now, and it has already consumed about four other headworlds so far. One of them was dinosaur pirates, which I'm still kinda salty about. It was fun for as long as it lasted.
And this is a problem. Bloodbride, by virtue of being so old and having cannibalized so many other stories and settings, is overwhelming and unwieldy. It's kind of an anthology setting, but it doesn't actually have enough material to make into proper stories. (it has kind of a "series finale" -type thing, and there's one actual short story, but one that can't be the first one in the series, aaaaand. That's kinda it. Many vague ideas, but nothing substantial)
I want to start fresh, without the massive baggage of Bloodbride behind it, so I can't let it be consumed. I just don't know if I can.
(I do, one day, really want to make Bloodbride a thing as well, I just don't think I can do it without good brainstorming help)

okay late sinday thing is late but how about a sinday headcanon dump!! multiple f.naf muses beneath cut <3 small tw for brief mention of self-harm scars/wounds ( not described )
ELISE
True Switch in every sense but will shit talk her partner no matter what so y'know—
dirty talk dirty talk dirty talk
bonus: will dirty talk in french hi hello
just a big fan of variety. sensual, rough, trying new things, doing what's familiar—it's all good!
mid-high sex drive
not into choking (although by default my only muse who is is william and perhaps henry LMAO))
as is already canon on @spring-lxcked, can and will peg her partner and is very good at it <3
knows she's hot and not afraid to show it ( ie. lingerie, revealing clothing, striptease, etc )
( laughing at her + my william, they must be the most fucking annoying couple in the world when they're together )
absolutely hooks up with william at least twice post-divorce in very dumb moments of weakness on both sides (wishlist wishlist wishlist—)
JAYNE
leans top & domme, but not exclusively
don't even look at her unless you're good with humor in the bedroom, she's so annoying
deserves a wife. this isn't a sinday headcanon, it's just a fact. marry her.
so good with her hands, like way too good with her hands
relatively high sex drive
has had numerous friends-with-benefits situations that genuinely were just friends-with-benefits
pretty open to exploring most new kinks within reason
got sucked into a very passionate sexual relationship with a "straight" girl in her 20s. did not manage to keep feelings out of it (mutually). got her heart broken. you know how it goes
sex toys galore lbr. from basic to kinky, she's got 'em if she can afford them
HENRY
we don't need to say he likes it rough, that's been established on this blog already LMAO
(doesn't exclusively like it rough, pretty open-minded)
honestly probably a True Switch too. tends to be good with whatever his partner prefers and always down for switching it up
so hard to make him beg. but not. impossible. winks at u.
pull his hair come on do it—
takes a bit of "encouraging" the first time with a new partner but def a dirty talker
hasn't had a ton of sexual partners by choice. just not a very casual sex dude, other than a couple rare occasions
( has had a few committed relationships by the time he's married tho )
views himself as very masculine ( and carries some of the period-typical internalized issues associated with that ). will still melt if you call him beautiful in general, but especially in bed
over-the-clothes shit just really gets him going. grinding / dry-humping is just like. one of his Big Things, but he won't tell you
HARPER / PHONE DU.DE
haven't gotten to write him yet so this might be sparse
switch again (do you see the pattern with my muses?)
not 100% opposed to casual sex but def enjoys it more in a committed relationship
loves getting dirty talked
will also make jokes in bed at times + is quick to laugh off anything unexpected
tends to be more interested in men and masc-aligned ppl, but pretty open-minded
100% enjoys using sex toys with partners like please if his partner enjoys them, they'll end up with a treasure trove LMAO
MIKE
should be a given, but all of this is 18+ and also pre-scooping LMAO
switch who is fully convinced he's exclusively a top please help this man
will Not engage in certain kinks ( ie. bondage ) casually
me when i write mike by default in his like. ~ early twenties knowing he def doesn't ever get laid prior to his early twenties. in other words, your muse could be his first and i think that's <3
sorry but making out with him is a straight road to sex, it's like making out + groping = very hot and bothered
very, very focused on being A Good Partner. so much so that if his partner wants to, like, fully focus on him? he'll be shocked ( not opposed tho lmao )
you want to believe he's a good flirt. i know you do. but that's just not true and, in fact, his response to being hit on is to choke—
( okay i promise he gets better at flirting over time but at first. . . )
literally incapable of friends-with-benefits. he SWEARS he can handle it, but he WILL catch feelings like, sorry, the guy just wants to be loved
receiving body worship will make him, like, squirm off of the bed ( positive )
not necessarily opposed to casual stuff, but wary abt his scars/wounds being commented on

What's something that makes you happy about writing your muse? Is it their personality, their mentality, or something else entirely? Also, is there something you'd like to explore with your muse in general, but haven't had the opportunity for it?
Hi Anon,
Firstly it has taken me forever to get to this and I want to formally apologize for that. I love it when you send things like this in and I love getting questions like this. Life has just been up and down lately and today was full of more bad news so I only have so much energy in a day and that means my drafts took priority and my inbox has been neglected in general.
I'm sorry.
As for your questions ->
I love Kumo just for being himself. Writing Kumo in general makes me happy because he is a comfort muse. I say this meaning, I have loved this series for 20 years now since I was just a teenager in high school when the series was coming out and this man was in the very early years of my Anime Favorites team.
FFU is special because it is one of the first animes I really hyperfixated on that wasn't on TV. It was the first series I bought in it's entirety and I have adored this series for a long long time now. It's one of those things I watch yearly or when I'm depressed because I just love it. However it was also a source of heavy level bullying for me because people used to mock me for liking the series and tell me how it wasn't even good. So Kumo's always been there in the back of my head chillin' as a support but in general I just stopped talking about the series and him in general.
All the muses I've ever run are still here, some are just sleeping and others just quiet. Kumo was always the quiet one who just hung out and watched over the kiddos. I had no one to talk to about him and I honestly never thought he would become what he has. I never thought I would get other people to love this weird strange cloud boy of mine...so the fact they do is just -
I'm speechless guys. Really. 💙☁️💙☁️
As for Kumo himself - he's just complicated and interesting and challenging. Kumo has so many rules, but most of them I put in place myself because FFU gave me scraps to work with. So that's also been a fun part of this. Expanding him and world building in a way that still makes sense and all fits together cohesively. For Kumo to still be Kumo. He's a quiet guy but he's become so talkative lately. He's found his voice and now he's using it A LOT.
Kumo is a man on a journey. He's waist deep in self discovery and self betterment. He's healing and processing. He's on a redemption track and trying not to just to better himself but the universe around him. He's fun because he's so many contradictions. He's an immortal who is coming to grips with his morality. He's alive but he thinks he's a ghost. He's the Moon living in the space of the Sun. He's a King living amongst his people. He's a God living outside of the heavens.
He's really starting to come into his own as the King he was born to be but this is where the yet to explore part comes in. I really want this man to finally come to grips on his Godhood.
Kumo is the vessel for one Lady Tiamat, Celestial Mother of the Heavens and source of all Mist - and the thing is- he needs to come to terms with the fact that he's not just her vessel but he's taking that mantle on himself a little at a time. To truly embrace his Godhood and all that he is within the space of the Universe.
The Unlimited are two sides of the same Kolikko (co-lee-co (coin in his language)) and Kumo is the side of Love, Life, Light, Salvation, and The Moon and Kumo is very aware of this. The thing is, it's just metaphorical. Kumo really is all of these things. They become him. They're his essence. They ARE him. Kumo IS these things so I absolutely adore it when he launches into one of his flowy prose rambles on the topic of Good or Bad -or even just other forces within the Universe.
When he starts into rambles and hits saying things like "I am Salvation." or "Salvation, my given name." He's not being poetic or metaphorical - that's his godhood showing and he's being literal. He's being absolutely literal. I love it when he does things like this.
I love just exploring the world with him and through his eyes. I love looking at things because he has such a different perspective and it's so fun to keep myself in the "arrogant human" mindset because I do. And by that I mean how arrogant is it of me as a human to assume things for him would be the same?
In a way, writing Kumo is humbling and I just - he's always been a comfort character and he's always meant the world to me but now he means even more. He's found his voice and now he just wants to say Hello.
#anon || voices in the wind#ask || mun speaks#tw; long post#// I had to write this twice for you anon because ctrl + z murdered my post once again and asks don't save to drafts apparently

INTRO.
oops i'm already late but a quick intro while i have a chance!! hi everyone this is laur (@bejinyoung) again attempting a second muse because this dude spawned in my head a couple weeks ago and won't leave me alone!!!!
to be honest i haven't finished his bio yet so i'll put a quick tl;dr under the cut with the highlights and hopefully i can get some plots rockin' and rollin' with alex!
ps. this is a new blog so i'm stuck with the new post editor. please pray 4 me.
the history!
mom's a particularly cutthroat lawyer and dad is a former major league baseball player who was more or less babytrapped by mom while she was visiting her extended family in korea. due to conservative beliefs and values, he married her anyway and moved to canada with her to raise the baby (it's a girl!).
alex was also born in toronto, ontario (canada) and was more or less an accident. his mom really didn't want a second child, especially not one FOURTEEN years after her first, but due to conservative beliefs and values (there is a pattern here) she kept the baby (alex) anyway. that said, she was not a very affectionate mother. his dad, on the other hand, was fairly doting but not always present.
alex kinda grew up a little too independent. his sister didn't want much to do with him (what high schooler wants to deal with an infant anyway?), his dad was always busy, and his mom was distant at best, cold at worst.
side plot: alex at some point realized that he looked nothing like his father. and also not that much like his mother. while he's never dared to ask, he assumes he's the product of an affair. he can tell that there's no love left in his parents' marriage one way or the other, but they stay together due to conservative beliefs and values.
CW INJURY // like his dad, alex had a keen interest in baseball from a young age! he started out in little league and was quite the little talent. he continued to play until 8th grade; he made the junior varsity team (he passed the special test for underclassmen to play with high schoolers) but in an unfortunate accident in practice, he broke his femur. he's now fully healed, but whether it's physical or psychological his leg has never really felt the same. while he can walk and function normally in most of his daily life, it still aches with too much hard activity. the pain was bad enough that he had to give up his baseball career dreams.
while still initially recovering from said injury, alex was quite bored. he's always been competitive so he eventually fell into the wild world of video games. first person shooters in particular appealed to him. and he became quite good at them. this will be important later.
another side plot: his sister is married to @bexabbi's brother. alex was only invited to the wedding because people would ask questions if he wasn't.
somewhere halfway through high school, alex's dad decides he has had enough. he legally splits from his wife (she takes everything) but alex is old enough to tell the judge that he'd rather stay with his dad than his mom. his mother puts up a fight at first, if only just to spite her ex, but eventually she relents and dad gets sole custody. alex and dad move back to south korea a year later and alex finishes his schooling in seoul.
at some point, his prowess at fps games earns him a spot on an overwatch contenders team (the very same as @renxbe) as another dps. i actually don't know too much about games so bear with me here because i have no idea who he mained at the time, we will determine these details later. anyway, through a series of unfortunate events, alex's contract was not re-signed or extended and he ended up leaving overwatch entirely to join a valorant challengers team instead. he's still playing valorant professionally and streams on the side just for fun. his whole team is hoping to win the challengers league and become a franchised team in the Big international competitions <3
his stream content is a lot of valo (again i dont know much so can't tell u who he mains rn) but he also does some other variety content.
anyway these days he's a creative writing major (mostly to spite his mother, who would've dropped dead if any of her kids weren't doctors or lawyers, etc.) and has vague plans to write a novel if streaming fizzles out for him. he doesn't currently have any particular interest in music but i'm hoping to give him some connections to change that!!
a little bit of personality info too:
i kinda consider him the guy asking the question "aren't you tired of being nice? don't you want to go ape shitt" and he is currently tired of playing nice and is going a bit ape shitt
not completely impulsive but definitely doesn't overthink so many things. sexuality in particular. he's not defining himself by any one label and is currently in an experimental stage? he's figuring out what he likes and his preferences at a pretty laidback pace and just kinda enjoying the experience.
sarcastic piece of shit. not exactly loud, but annoying as hell when he does speak up. i don't really know how to describe this vibe but just know that despite having nothing to contribute to any conversation, he was very demanding for my attention and to be brought to life in wannabe. he still has nothing to contribute to the conversation.
he sometimes acts like he doesn't care too much about school but he's academically very intelligent. he pretends he's taking creative writing because it's easy but he's secretly very interested in storytelling in unique ways; he thinks it'd be fun to use what he's learning to create some sort of arg or maybe even write a script for a video game someday? he's not entirely sure yet, he's a bit too unfocused to really commit to any one project. maybe he'll just be a boring novelist someday!
i don't have any particular plots in mind Yet and this post is already so long omg so i might try to get some ideas up in a separate post later! but for now! if anything piques your interest please let me know, leave a like, whatever you're up for and i'm so excited to get to plotting with the boy!

Funfacts/Important HCs About my William Aton
So since rn I can't really make bio pages I'm gonna share the important info on some of my new muses via these posts, below the cut is the info.
William came from a broken home, his mother was emotionally abusive and his father was flat out monstrous, I haven't figured out all the details but it was a mix of abuses including verbal and physical.
So William did a mix of putting up a perfect goodie two shoes son persona and extreme acts of 'rebellion', one week his teachers would be commenting on how well behaved he was to the next week where his mother found the pastor's missing dog in a shoebox under the boy's bed.
William is gay, but due to the culture of his time and his family's abuse he never became comfortable with this aspect of himself, intensely denying this part of himself, feeling intense shame over his feelings for other men and as a father was homophobic, especially towards Michael when it became clear that the boy may have been gay too. The only version of William who is actually comfortable with this aspect of himself is Glitchtrap, though outside of ghost or entites based off Henry he would have no interest in a relationship.
Like a lot of serial killers Williams first targets where animals, at first wild small animals no one miss like rats or birds but eventually he moved onto street 'pet' animals before eventually targeting people's pets. It gave him a sense of control, something that he had power over regardless of his parents, had he been taken from his parents at this point it would not have been too late for him to give up on this unhealthy coping mechanism.
But no, he was with them until he was 18, on the same very day he left. He had been still in school so simply didn't go back to the house and instead went to get ID and then rented a mortal room for the rest of high school (or may have stayed with Henry, in interactions with Henrys that knew William before he was 18.)
William went to a university for a business degree, he had always had a lot of academic skills and his anxiety over his family being able to control him using money kept him from going foe his real passions in different types of preforming or sewing.
This is another point in time he could have meet Henry, finally for the first time he had someone in his life who valued him for how he presented himself, didn't have some predetermined idea of him
Too bad that after so many years of lying to survive William just... Didn't know how to be honest, to open up or express who he truly was but hey, at the time he thought it was great. He could just choose to be whoever he wanted and Henry's affection for that persona would be great social pressure to not ruin it like how he stained his 'innocent child' persona with blood.
Yeah he was setting himself up for failure, for him to feel very alone, to continue to feel intense shame over his feelings for others and to be setting himself up to grow to resent the person he loved most.
But it still wasn't too late, it had only been animals and people who deserved it that had suffered at his hands. Had someone intervened, been able to look past his act and get him to admit there was a issue he could have became a okay person, not a monster.
This is the last option for when he meets Henry, finally thinks he can trick himself into having a happy relationship where he's a totally fake person.
They draw up the ideas for Freddy's and set to it, to make their dream come true.
William didn't let Henry wear the Springlock suits, or really do a lot of the riskier things when it came to the restaurant, the idea of Henry getting hurt was at the time very destressing to William and... He thought out of the pair he was worth less, that Freddy's would live on, Henry would live on, without him, so it was totally fine if he died trying to fulfill every role needed of him.
He may have projected a lot of himself onto Bonnie and projected Henry onto Freddy, whenever he could he always made any version of the two best friends. And when Michael made the Glamrock animatronics that was simply ingrained, no longer with the context remembered.
As a whole he was always controlling of Henry, though at first it was his putting Henry on a pedestal and self hate that motivated it.
Things got worse, especially morally when William ended up having a shotgun marriage with a woman he didn't know too well, she was a seamstress who William had tried dating after getting to know her as she was hired to help with putting together some of the suits. When she became pregnant she made it clear she didn't have the money to rise a child alone and would be shunned by her family if they found out, so William both out of a sense of obligation and wanting to do things right, fit in (after all Henry had a partner, shouldn't he? Won't it be good to be ahead of him for once?)
William was extremely emotionally negligent and controlling of her, forcing her to leave her job and rely on him for money and controlling how she would present herself, no one was to know this up and comer had married a lowly seamstress.
When Michael was born William swore to himself that he would be a better father, he did honestly love his new child, even if he didn't love the boy's mother. He failed, miserably often resorting to verbal and emotional abuse to control Micheal and physical abuse when either his emotions became to unstable or when he felt the child would be a threat to his persona otherwise.
Soon enough Henry had a children of his own, William quickly took on a uncle like role and in all honesty up until the big breaking point acted like a better parenteral figure to the twins than his own children, as he could never bring himself to abuse them them in the same ways, just deceive them.
William would often joke that someday when they were older Charile should marry one of his sons. This was very much just projection of his own desire to be with Henry
Soon enough he and his wife also had Elizabeth and Evan, after seeing how Michael was turning out William decided to be more hands on in controlling them.
He pushed Elizabeth into becoming a pageant star as a child, forcing her to take dance and acting and all of the artsy things he hadn't been allowed to as a young boy, punishing her whenever she expressed her own true intrests, despite how much he mourned her later on he never even really knew Elizabeth, due to him no one did.
He isolated Evan from the rest of the family and tried to push him into behaving how he did as a child using the Fredbear plush to give commands and try to break him (to be pit back together better), unfortunately for William Evan's stress response nor response to thinking his family hated him was the same as Williams.
But despite his treatment of his family he made them all keep up the act of being happy even around the actually happy Henry.
Then Evan died, Willi drove himself, the boy and Michael to the hospital as his wife got into a streaming match with Henry, begging for a answer to why a animatronic could even bite down (no one noticed Elizabeth, just staring at the blood.)
This is when Williams whole thing of pretending to be a whole other person thing sorta failed him as at that point he resented Henry, was so jealous and had so much hate for how happy Henry was in contrast with his miserable life that he was driven to kill.
He wanted to make Henry hurt as badly as he was, so he took one of Henry's children and then he took more childrens lives, made everyday a nightmare for the both of them as Henry would have to see other heartbroken parents and have that tragedy stain their dream.
Soon enough he did notice remetent and did decide to study it, though unlike in canon he had no goals of immortality, he was more simply curious.
But it still took Elizabeth's life, and after that it was becoming clear he was tied to the issues of Freddy's.
So he faked his death, his wife was finally free of him and did her best to care for Michael meanwhile William continued to be a issue for Henry/Freddy's.
To be continued

Writing Interview Tag Game
I was tagged by @ra-scheln - thank you! :D
When did you start writing?
A looooooong time ago. Haha. As a kid there was a several year period where I thought I wanted to be an author as a career, and always liked writing even after I moved on to other plans. The stuff I wrote as a kid is mostly lost to time, although I do still have the Google doc of a “novel” I wrote for my senior English project in high school. I haven't had the courage to look at it for a long time because it is uh. Not Good. :P (No judgment on my past self - we become better through trying and learning. But it would probably be unrecognizable compared to my writing now.)
Are there different themes or genres that you enjoy reading than what you write?
Sort of? I like reading scifi and fantasy and the majority of my writing has also been in those genres. But I also like reading things like regency romance, historical fiction, very specific types of horror, etc. that I have no real interest in trying to replicate.
Can you tell me about your writing space?
Sometimes I write on my phone flopped on the couch - that's how I'm writing my answers to these questions in fact! I'm a pretty fast phone typist but it's still a slower process, though, so when I really want to buckle down I usually go to my desktop computer which is in the office. Right now it's a big wooden corner desk but I'd like to replace it with a couple of smaller ones that are more easy to maneuver and put cool rgb lights on for the Gamer Aesthetic. XD
What’s your most effective way to muster up a muse?
Lately as I've been trying to write more consistently, I've been having a lot of luck with this web app called 4thewords.com. It's a bit of gamification but the main thing I like about it is you pick an amount of time and a word goal and it sets a timer for you and it has proved REALLY effective for forcing me to just get words down on paper. The first draft is the hardest for me by far and it's been often really useful for getting over that hump. So lately I'll set myself up for 500-1000 words or so per day of “battles” and that gets me the forward momentum that I'm trying to maintain.
That said, I'm also trying to be better about not forcing myself to write when it's just not coming at all. I don't want to burn myself out.
Are there any recurring themes in your writing?
I am sure the answer is yes but it's hard for me to distinctly identify them. (I'd be interested in hearing reader answers to this question.)
Off the top of my head, though - missing scenes, mutual pining, struggles with emotional control. I think one major thing is that, as someone who missed my prime dating years due to the Big Sad, a lot of my characters do have an underlying thread of finding love/fulfillment/connection despite obstacles, later in life, or when they feel they don't deserve it or don't know how to do it.
What is your reason for writing?
The same reason I was almost an actor, the same reason I like making people laugh on my stream. Hell, even the same reason I like programming and making software that improves someone's day.
I like making people feel things. I like seeing their reaction to something I've done and hearing that it evoked something in them. This is the most fundamental human connection in my opinion.
Is there any kind of specific comment or type of comment you find particularly motivating?
Honestly, any time someone takes time out of their day to leave any type of comment at all, it's guaranteed to make my whole week. But in keeping with my previous answer - my favorite comments are ones where I get to hear about how I affected the reader's emotions, or where they mention particular parts that really struck them. Those always make me really happy. c:
How do you want to be thought about by your readers?
Interesting question. I think… as someone who is good with character voices and keeps tight hold of the fundamental core of the characters even when putting them in different situations. Someone who can manage both angst and humor well. Once again, I'd like people to look forward to what I write because they know it's gonna make them feel something that they enjoy.
What do you feel is your greatest strength as a writer?
Character voices and dialogue. I've been told I've been very good at catching the cadence of different characters, and some of my favorite things to write have been just bouncing those voices off each other and seeing what happens. I think this is really the pillar on which all the rest of my work is able to stand bc the characters feeling like themselves makes the rest have more impact.
How do you feel about your own writing?
This really depends on when you catch me, haha. Some days I'm really proud of it, and some days I have a hard time seeing anything good in it. Currently in a bit of a trough of overthinking it, but I’m lucky to have a couple readers who are v supportive which helps. <3 Overall though I think I do a good job and have some interesting stories out there and in my to-do list. (I also tend to way over-compare myself to other people in the fandom; there are so many incredible writers around here that it's hard to put myself next to them.)
When you write, are you influenced by what others might enjoy reading, or do you write purely for yourself, or a mix of both?
A mix of both, I suppose? Certainly in picking what I want to write about I am thinking primarily about what I would find fun to write and not about what has a “market” in the fandom per se. But I also am lucky enough to have found other people who do enjoy the same characters as I do and enjoy my take on them, and in that sense I am definitely often more excited about a particular idea because I know one or more of my friends would be excited to read it. :D So both things are definitely a factor.

Writely questionnaire
Thanks @agirlandherquill for the tag!
About Me:
When did you first start writing?
It was actually a very clearly defined moment. I read Lord of the Rings when I was ten years old, and it fundamentally changed me in a way I hadn't known possible. And somehow that became me deciding I wanted to write. I'm 33 now and haven't stopped since.
Are the genres/themes you enjoy reading different from the ones you write?
Mm, no not really? I will read, and write, just about anything. I find it easier to write genres I'm familiar with reading, just because I have more of a grounding in the common tropes, structure, characters, etc. But I'll read anything that's good and write anything that's fun!
Is there an author (or just a fellow writer!) you want to emulate, or one to whom you're often compared?
I have (flatteringly) once had my writing style compared to Neil Gaiman, but I can't speak to the accuracy of that. I definitely pick up tropes, ideas, sentence structures, habits, and styles like a crow from whatever I'm reading and things that I like. I don't consciously try and emulate anyone, but I am inspired by writers of beautiful, lyrical prose like Erin Morganstern, Laini Taylor, Maggie Stievater and others of that ilk.
Can you tell me a little about your writing space(s)? (Room, coffee shop, desk, etc.)
To be honest I don't really have one? I'll write anywhere, though I prefer to have two monitors and a proper keyboard, I can also happily write on my laptop if I must. I write a fair bit at my desk, which is on the mezzanine level of our flat, with bookshelves behind me and a window beside me that looks out over the paddocks.
What's your most effective way to muster up some muse?
Honestly if it's not there, it's not there. I often just have to wait for it to come back. Listening to some inspiring music sometimes, or reading back over stuff I've written before can help. More often I either have to force it till it comes back or just wait till inspiration strikes again. It usually comes back eventually.
Did the place(s) you grew up in influence the people and places you write about?
No, I don't think so. I grew up in a country town in rural Australia and to be honest I don't write much, if anything set in Australia at all.
Are there any recurring themes in your writing, and if so, do they surprise you at all?
Found family baby. I am an absolute sucker for found family and so it comes up a lot on my writing. Sacrifice, and there is always, always, romance. None of it is very surprising.
My Characters
Would you please tell me about your current favourite character? (Current WIP, Past WIP, Never Used, etc)
GOD that is a hard question. I have a LOT of characters, many of them I love a lot. I guess there are a couple that have sort of stuck out over the years.
Damian Baxter was a character from a zombie story Ez and I wrote back in high school. He was 21, a London boy from a lower class family, bit of a trouble maker, but absolutely devoted to his two little sisters. He was white with black, slightly curly hair and pretty brown eyes and for some reason he has really stuck with me as one of my favourites of all time.
My current favourite is probably Ellis Grey, who is from PPiS, a scifi drama. He's an orphaned pirate, a cheeky scoundrel with a heart of gold (loosely based off Lando Calrissian). He's black, short curly hair, and an extremely charming smile. He's a sad wet boi wrapped up in charm and schmooze and your honour I luff him.
Which of your characters do you think you'd be friends with in real life?
Honestly not many of them! I tend to write characters that are absolutely not like me at all. Probably Liam, who was a teenager in his original iteration - an introverted Chinese Australian boy who was in a little gay romance we once wrote. We later aged him up to his late twenties, and I think we could have been chill. I also think I could hang with Ithuriel as well. He's pretty quiet.
Which of your characters would you dislike the most if you met them?
Hahaha maybe Onyx? They're cool but probably a bit too traumatised. I feel as if I would want to smack them and tell them tog get over themselves, even though that's not fair because I wrote them with a boatload of baggage.
Tell me about the process of coming up with one, all, or any of your characters,
Unfortunately I don't think my answer here will be very interesting. Cause genuinely they just sort of ... come. Usually I'll have a role they need to fill - protagonist, side character, best friend, lover, etc. I give them a name, usually come up with a bit of a description and start writing. I then just sort of see what comes out? They usually find their own voice.
Do you notice any recurring themes/traits among your characters?
I feel like I'm better at writing men than women weirdly enough. All my favourite characters have been male. Tragic back stories are always a must for me. Sad hot bois are sort of my vibe.
How do you picture them? (As real people you imagined, as models/actors who exist in real life, as imaginary artwork, as artwork you made or commissioned, anime style, etc)
I have a visual imagination so I generally have a fairly good picture in my mind of what they look like. Sometimes some things might be a bit more vague and sketchy, and they might be sometimes inspired by real people, but generally they look like themselves. It's a shame I can't draw for shit.
My Writing
What's your reason for writing?
I honestly just don't know how not to? I want to do it all the time. To tell stories, to make the worlds in my head real. I don't know. I just feel like I need it.
Is there a specific comment or type of comment you find particularly motivating coming from your readers?
Literally anything haha. I wish more people would comment on my writing! Good, bad, in between, whatever. I love knowing people have read it.
How do you want to be thought of by those who read your work? (For example: as a literary genius, or as a writer who "gets" the human condition; as a talented world builder, as a role model, etc)
I dont really want to be thought of at all. I just want people to enjoy my stories.
What do you feel is your greatest strength as a writer?
Characters, I think. And descriptions. I can possibly get a bit waffly at times, but I think I paint a pretty great picture.
What have you been frequently told your greatest writing strength is by others?
I haven't really been told much haha. I wish more people would comment on it! But I think probably if anything, my descriptions again.
How do you feel about your own writing? (Answer in whatever way you interpret this question)
It depends. I know I'm capable of writing beautifully but I think unless I'm really putting in the effort it's kinda sloppy. Like, it's not bad, but I do get kinda lazy, my sentences get long, I use too many dialogue tags and adjectives. All the things you aren't supposed to do.
If you were the last person on earth and knew your writing would never be read by another human, would you still write?
Yeah, probably. I've written like 1500 pages of PPiS probably no one will ever read haha.
When you write, are you influenced by what others might enjoy reading, or do you write purely what you enjoy? if it's a mix of the two, which holds most influence?
I most just write what makes me happy, but it depends on the context. Sometimes I write for others.
This was very fun so leaving an open tag for anyone who wants to do it!
