16. How many fic ideas are you nurturing right now? Share one of them?

Honestly, gazillion 💀. I always have small thoughts and ideas in my head for potential fics which, if I'm lucky, I write them down on time before I forget about them. But for months now, I've been planning a huge huge HUGE rafe fic called 'ARE WE STILL FRIENDS?' (yes, the tyler song 🙂‍↕️) which covers his and reader's entire life together starting from best friends in kindergarten, and going through so much, to finally getting together. There are so so many ideas for this but I've barely written it. I've written a rough scene of them in kindergarten and I'll paste it below! (it might have errors and may not make sense cause it's the first rough draft, and it's been untouched for months)

“Cherry or green apple?”

You plop down next to Rafe’s figure hunched over the table, a box of crayons opened next to him as he keeps himself busy with a coloring page, his color strokes going often out of the lines, but even then, you still believe he’s one of the best at art.

His ears perk up at your little voice as you sit down next to him, his eyes falling onto the two lollipops in your hand: one wrapped in a dark red wrapper, and the other in a bright green. He pouts at the choices in your hand, and you are fully aware of the reason for the little pout on his small lips.

"They did not have strawberry,” you mumble. “Only these two,”

He lets out a short sigh, and then with his little finger he gestures to the cherry one. You unwrap the cherry flavored lollipop and hand it to Rafe, who takes it and instantly puts it in his mouth, going back to his coloring task.

You sit silently next to him with the green apple lollipop in your mouth as you watch him color. Your gaze drifts from Rafe over to the classroom window, out of which you can see all of the other kids running around, laughing, playing, or sitting on the sides to eat their food on the small field. All the swings are occupied, the sand pit is occupied, and there are multiple children at once sliding down the only slide in the field.

Rafe is different.

He never spends his lunch breaks outside. He stays in the classroom, finishes his lunchbox, and then always gets a coloring sheet to keep himself busy. You, on the other hand, always have your lunch outside with a few of your girl friends, but as soon as you’re done, you leave the girls and come to Rafe in the classroom; always sitting in the same seat of his with his sheet and his expensive box of crayons. From the little shop opposite to your house, you bring a strawberry lollipop for him each day and give it to him as a little after lunch sweet treat.

The first time you had offered him the lollipop, he was surprised. “What’s that for?” He had asked you.

“You told me you like strawberries,” you had replied, already unwrapping the lollipop. “So I got this for you,” you finished with a smile, holding out the candy for him.

A soft blush had started spreading on his cheeks at your words and the offer of the delectable candy. “Thank you,” he had murmured ever so quietly, and he took it from you and put it in his mouth.

22. Are there certain types of writing you won’t do? (style, pov, genre, tropes, etc)

hmm, i think at the moment it's smut, and anything surrounding it basically. I may get into it in the future, I don't know, but I just don't think I'll be any good at it, plus it's a personal preference of mine to go for fluffy or angsty content. But I have started including suggestive content in my works (it isn't full on detailed sex descriptions but focuses more on like the feeling and intimacy of it? I don't know that's the best I can describe it)

32. Name three of your favorite fanfic writers.

nuh uh. I'm not picking three. here are my blog recs. go fucking crazy.

56. What’s something about your writing that you pride yourself on?

this one was hard to think of I don't know why 💀 but I think it's the way it keeps on evolving. the first time I ever started writing was when I was 13, and now I'm 18. and one thing I've personally experienced is watching and enjoying how my writing is improving. and i appreciate it even more when readers also notice it and tell me how much my writing has improved, and it's like the sweetest treat because I'm being told I'm getting better at something which helps me feel better because it's a wonderful outlet for me :)
