#but this was a fun trip down memory lane!

[c-e-d-dreamer]

Surprise self-rec time! Pick 3 of your favorite things you’ve written and share them here, then put this in the inbox (anonymously or not) of your fellow writers to spread the positivity and help celebrate already written fics

What a fun way to spread positivity! 🥰 Hmmm... Top 3. So hard to choose 🤔 especially when I write everything for myself! Lol... But! Okay!

3.) I Promise You I'll Keep You Safe — this is only a one shot, but I did love writing it and re-reading it because fix-it fics forever have a special place in my heart. And it's a constant reminder that I want to write more canonverse fics, especially a longer fix-it

2.) But I'm Only Looking At You — I absolutely re-read this often. I just love Scottish Cassian risking it all and bursting into a wedding for the woman he loves 😍

1.) Falling For Your Fools Gold — this was definitely the most fun I had writing a fic and I still love to re-read it! I mean Pirate Cassian? And his Pirate Queen Nesta? Iconic of me if I do say so myself 😇

A couple days ago, I took a look back at my life online that all led to where I am now.

It was crazy. The very first thing I made for the internet 16 years ago was a video called “Mario Kart Glitches”, a camripped video that featured no actual glitches. I then made Youtube Poops (although less with sentence mixing and more “take a video and replace words with CDI voice clips”)

Then high school came around and I started to fall in love with collaboration. I made an abridged series with my friend, and I started doing voice work, looking around for dubbing projects and making friends that way, usually through Pokemon-related stuff (including one friend who kinda disappeared off the face of the earth one day. I don’t know if you’re still out there, but if you’re reading this: Hey, Kasumi)

Later on in high school I would start collaborating on Newgrounds and would eventually change my name to Chongo, as it is today. I’d made friends with a small circle of animators on there who took part in an annual animation tournament, usually willing to lend voice acting and occasionally music.

When I went into college, I branched out a lot more. I started my Tumblr, which led to a lot of posting and meeting more people. I started a side blog that ended up more popular than my main blog for a while (shoutouts to @dhmis-audio and All The Stuff I Did There)

Then one day I reached out to send in auditions for a Gravity Falls fan project where I’d meet one of the most important people in my life: Penny Parker. After meeting her and having an incredible time during a table read and a voice call afterwards, we started collaborating. And from there the rest is pretty well-known history. Spagoots, leading to Snapcube and Spagoots Realms. Snapcube would lead to the dubs and making a whole host of friends like Red, Scout, Joy, Alfred, Mar, Ellie & Bee, Camilla, Katy (and that’s just naming a few), and Realms would lead to the Red Kraken.

From there, as I went into the working world, my content went more by the way of music and mashups, but I’d still have an urge to tell stories like with CPU Kerfuffle, with my storytelling getting deeper with stuff like NCCT. And the mashups would lead to stuff like Mad Rat Monday.

And now here we are. It’s crazy to think I’ve been a creator online for well over half my life. 16 years. I wouldn’t watch most of the stuff from my past (and I wouldn’t urge you to look into stuff from more than 7 or so years ago for multiple reasons) but I’m glad it all happened. It led to who I am today.

((a little bit of a lore drop for the future teehee))

It was already night time, a blanket of darkness fell over the countryside, muffling out of the lights of the city in the distance. It always felt comforting to Midas, the dark always hid him well, blurring and twisting his features till he was unrecognisable to the strangers he encountered on his travels.

Even if it was a false senses of security, he tended to prefer the night, a subconscious part of him always feeling on edge whenever he was out and about in the daylight. It was hard to let go of his fears, but he knew he didn’t need to hide anymore. It’s been five years already. No one was looking for him anymore. He was as good as dead in their eyes.

The only sound that filled the silence around the small house were the crickets outside and the sound of Midas twisting the screws in and out of the smaller version of rc car, struggling to take out the battery without damaging it.

Montague finally shut off the Xbox not too long before, going up to his room and leaving Midas alone with his thoughts. He wasn’t sure why he decided to work on that stupid toy again out of nowhere, but it was better than lounging around and doing nothing. Keeping himself busy still didn’t help him from thinking too much though.

Memories flashes in his head, making him remember driving the small car around the top of the large meeting room, evading the stairs and the seats with ease while pretending to listen to whatever his mother was lecturing the crowd about. He sure as hell didn’t miss that.

He groaned in frustration, pulling on the battery pack with a bit more force than necessary. Ever since he left his blog untouched he’s been feeling awfully restless, like his head could explode at any given moment. He couldn’t care less about what the islanders were doing or what catastrophe was befalling the place once again, his chaotic thoughts were enough to fully occupy him.

He could guess what the others were up to and he didn’t really miss all the chitchat. But not being able to see what he was doing to at any given moment was taking a toll on him. It felt so isolating.

Montague was around, but it was more like a ghost was haunting his house. They talked more often since they arrived on this new island and he had to save his ass again, but Midas’s recent instability made him shut himself away once more.

He didn’t want to argue. He didn’t want to talk. He didn’t want to see anyone.

And yet his wishes could not be fulfilled for too long, as a loud knock rang out through the house, making him drop the screwdriver he was holding in surprise. He bit down on his lower lip, chewing it raw with pent up frustration, the familiar coppery taste filling his mouth. If his fingers weren’t solid gold he probably wouldn’t have any skin on them left at this point.

He finally got up form the couch.

If someone was going to bother him this late it better be Nolan.

Who else would it be anyways? He had no one. Literally. Everyone was gone already, on greener pastures and with better people. Once again he found himself all alone, not even sure if it was from his own doing.

Midas dragged himself to the door, sighing deeply before putting on his signature smirk and pulling on the handle.

It only took him a moment to register the person on the other side, a man in a suit, and in a split second decision he slammed the door shut, or at least tried to, the other man’s foot stopping his attempt.

Just as sharp as ever.

“Wha- You’re not taking me back!” - midas gasped out, cold sweat trickling down his face as he struggle to keep the door closed, the person on the other side being much stronger than him. Pure panic surged through his whole body, this was the last thing he expected and he was fully unprepared.

“Who said I was gonna do that-” - his deep voice echoed through the room, making Midas panic tenfold. - “-sir?”

If Montague came down and was seen he’d be in danger too.

His eyes darted around the living room, landing on his katana that he was hallways done sharpening, laying across the table. There was no chance he’d be quick enough to get it. Even though he’s been putting on some muscle he was too weak and out of practice anyways.

“Why else would you be here!?” - midas tried to lower his voice and glanced up towards the second floor, not seeing any movement from there. Montague was probably asleep by then.

“Work got quite boring without you sir. So I quit.” - the man chuckled. There was no malice in his voice.- “You hid pretty well this time, that’s for sure. But your family doesn’t know I’m here, if that’s what you’re worried about.”

Midas finally stopped struggling and let the door creek open a bit, peeking through the crack to the outside. Upon fully seeing the man, memories from his past life flooded back to him, things he only vaguely thought about from time to time, never to this extent.

His old home. His parents. The staff, whom he was more close to than any of his relatives by the end. The way he would sneak off ever so often to get away from his mother’s lectures.. His siblings. It was all too much.

The door opened fully, revealing a muscular man in a suit, wearing his signature sunglasses even at night. He didn’t look a minute older than he did the last time they’ve seen eachother. The only difference he could make out was that his hairline pulled back a bit more now. Midas crossed his arms.

“Are you out of your mind Brutus?” - he raised an eyebrow huffing in disbelief. He was unbelievably upset from being found even in a place like this, he couldn’t even imagine what kind of dirt he dug up and what hoops he jumped through to get to him. It was just like the old times, him hiding away when he needed a moment of peace and quiet and his favourite butler finding him no matter where he went. Always bringing him back to his mother. Always making up an alibi for Midas, lying without a finch of a muscle. There was no bad blood between them. He was just doing his job. And the man understood him like no one else. - “What do you even want from me here?”

Brutus smiled upon finally being acknowledged by name, bowing deeply in a show of respect. It all felt like a fever dream. Something that shouldn’t have happened. And yet Midas felt at ease, for the first time since he arrived on Oninoshima.

“Isn’t it obvious? I want to work for you again, sir.”

Then to Now

We've got to start way way back, in good ole 2013: Baby Orleien~

Forgive the quality, we didn't have gpose yet!

Still in the ARR era tho, a more older Orleien~ I had face changed as Face 5 wasn't doing it for me any more. 2014:

One last shot of Orleien before she became Lily, in early 2015:

And now to begin Lily's saga... in late 2015

surprisingly I have no shots of just Lily, always have the guild around. its also when I went orange hair instead of red, Lily started with Orleien's red!~

2016 brought Lily closer to her normal self, I had finally settled on a hair (until the Rainmaker one came out but that's next year.)

Rainmaker time!~ and the Lily as we know her best. 2017~

2018 is when I started to dip my toes into RP as a whole, and its also when I made this tumblr!~

surprisingly I only have 13 screenshots for the entire year of 2018 XD

2019 was the year that Pagos dropped. And the year I took a break from ffxiv. I literally only have this one screen for the entire year.

I got much more into gpose in 2020 however. I have over a hundred screens here. ^.^ Plenty to choose from. Lily won't change all that much from here on out, just little things, like clothing choices.

I really started to dip my toes into my other flowers this year. At least half the screens are of non Lily poses.

With each passing year now, my screens skyrocketed in how many I took, 2021~ the first year I did Au Raugust too!~

Started to meet tumblr friends in 2022~ and I feel I finally got a grasp on gpose lighting.

I got so much more into posing in 2023, I think I finally downloaded Anam~

My bouquet expanded greatly this year as well, doubling in size~

And now we are here in 2024, the year I took the most screens.

And we had Glamtober, which I managed to do every day! (not on the day for some of them, but still!)

Let's see where 2025 takes us!~

[allenvooreef]

Couldn't resist drawing a cover for Tales of Mirrors, even though I didn't end up using it in the binding of the book. Revisiting these old original characters after roughly 14 years was really fun, and it reminded me how far I've come. This is the kind of stuff past me was attempting to make but didn't have the skills for yet! Adding some of my old art for this novel below the cut. Also, did you spot the familiar face?

fic writer meme

thank you [checks notes] @megafaunatic, @cairoscene, @englishsub, @yuebings, and @cafecliche for the tags ilu

1. How many works do you have on Ao3? 15! which is solidly 14 more than i ever expected to have on there when i made the account

2. What's your total Ao3 word count? 277,844

3. What fandoms do you write for? on ao3: mdzs/cql, tgcf, shl, and dc. in groupchats/dms/my own head i’m running wild all over the place

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos? 🐉 this river runs to you 💍 i’ll have you and you’ll have me 🪐 i will be chasing a starlight ⚔️ you’re the trouble that i always find 🌊 a wave crashes to shore

5. Do you respond to comments? not often; i have made multiple attempts to start replying regularly but all have eventually failed in the face of me desperately wanting to show my earnest and genuine appreciation for each comment vs. wanting to hide my blushing face under a pillow every time. also, because of who i am as a person, each time i sat down to do it i ended up spending hours making little progress and eventually decided that i will make an effort to spend those hours writing or commenting on other fics instead. i am honored by each and every one though!!!

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? while i tend to write angst it is always firmly of the “with a happy ending” sort. the one exception is my shortest fic (originally posted on twitter) never been away so long, which is more of an ambiguous/open ending with implied angst. i dooooo outline the eventual happy ending in the endnotes, though. also as it CURRENTLY stands buy back the secrets ends on one hell of an angsty note, but there are two more chapters in the works to fix that.

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? despite the wangxian star trek au having like 20k of deliriously happy post-misunderstanding sex, i think trrty has to have the happiest ending because not only does the fic end happily, but there are also multiple very happy codas in which wwx gets a good night’s sleep, finally gets to bang his dragon boyfriend, and, my personal fav, one by aubreyli where wangxian go flying in a thunderstorm.

8. Do you get hate on fics? not so far, for which i am grateful but mostly lucky.

9. Do you write smut? occasionally; on ao3 there’s the aforementioned trrty coda, plus the aforementioned cowritten wangxian pon farr sequence 💪

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you have written? hmm, i’m not opposed to crossovers—i’ve read some really fun ones (recent fav crossover read here)—but i’d have to be really compelled by both source materials and have a very clear vision for how they interact to want to write one myself. i’ve written a few fandom fusions (aforementioned wangxian star trek au; i also started a wangxian dragon age au but again, no dragon age characters were going to show up, just the world/setting) but no full-on crossovers. i did have one partially drafted wangxian fic that was going to have a hua cheng deus ex machina, alas.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? not that i’m aware of! it’s not something i really go looking for/concern myself with, but so far, like with fandom hate, i’m grateful to not have encountered it.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? yes! my wangxian wedding fic was translated to russian.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? i co-wrote seventy thousand words of published fic with @feyburner! and probably two hundred thousand words of unpublished fic and outlines and story ideas just for fun. even when we aren’t co-writing we tend to talk through our individual fics with each other so we’re pretty in sync when it comes to writing. i also spent like a year in @cairoscene’s DMs concocting whole outlines/zerodrafts for batfam fics together that i still cherish and reread (notable favs: tim drake ella enchanted au, concept where the waynes are cursed to suddenly feel nothing but apathy about tim and he has to deal with that, story where robin!tim gets de-aged and oops red hood is the first one to show up…). i’d say the OCBFEU is fic-adjacent and cowritten by a group of us. also shoutout to the mdzs threadfic @cafecliche and i brainstormed/zerodrafted where lan qiren gets cursed into an owl and post-cql wei wuxian is the one who unknowingly saves him.

14. What's your all time favorite ship? oh yeah it’s [loud truck goes by]

15. What is a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? cyborg!wwx…i still think of you fondly. the only ao3 fic i’ve ever posted knowing i probably wouldn’t finish it but wanted to share just for fun.

16. What are your writing strengths? pangs… mining little character details for humor (or, more often, for more pangs)… i also think i’ve really improved my action writing/pacing over the last few years.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? i write actual drafts/prose fairly slowly, which can be frustrating for me. also like @yuebings i often get very caught up in trying to perfect one small part of a draft before moving on. ummmm describing outfits/settings for reasons other than immediate plot-relevant details, i’m terrible at that + remembering to do it—i literally make myself do a What Are We Looking At Here Pass while revising sometimes.

18. Thoughts of writing dialogue in another language in fics? i’m not totally sure what this question is asking tbh, but it’s something i think can be done incredibly well—and, like with many things in storytelling, it’s the sort of thing where if you don’t actually speak the second language you need to be willing to put in work beyond a cursory google to try to achieve what you’re doing, and be willing to admit if it’s beyond your capabilities. i really like how the portuguese dialogue in bbts ended up and that’s 100% because @tigerjpg translated it for me and also already understood the scene/concept/characters; without them i would have found a different way to approach that scene. also, stylistically, i personally like when dialogue in other languages isn’t italicized unless there’s a real reason for it to be.

19. First fandom you wrote for? oh it was [a second loud truck whooshes by]

20. Favorite fic you have written? right now it’s bbts, because i think it’s also the fic i’ve had the most fun writing. trrty, though, will always hold a special place in my heart.

and i tag! @tlumeti, @burins, @smilebackwards, @bonesbuckleup, @hearteyeshayley, @sonosvegliato

[karnakian]

i know i've posted these screenshots before, but god sometimes the symmetry of the language between the first picture (leon's perspective, describing the creation of his and maria's promise) and the second picture (maria's perspective, as she calls their promise off) really hits me hard

20 Questions for Fic Writers

Thank you for the tags @curator-on-ao3 and @emonydeborah! I apologize for how long it's taken me to respond 💛

I'm so late to this, I have no idea who's already done it. If you haven't yet, please, please consider yourself tagged - and tag me in your response so that I can read your answers! (Actually if you have done it already, also link me so I can read your answers. These are fun questions with bonus fic recs so I'd like to see them all!)

Anyway, I got a little rambly, so I'll put in a cut to not murder anyone's dash 😁

1. How many works do you have on Ao3? 82.

2. What’s your total Ao3 word count? 397,560.

3. What fandoms do you write for? I've been primarily writing Star Trek (Strange New Worlds and Voyager) lately, with a dash of The Librarians and Leverage.

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

Fringe Benefits (SNW) - My beloved monument to ridiculousness where I approach the totally canon subject of Chris Pike's horse skills via Number One's hair.

October 2373 (Voyager)- My magnum opus! The one time I've managed to achieve completion of an October prompt list - five of them. In one coherent (ish) fic. Granted, it did take me until December... but the point is that I finished it! It follows a very eventful and occasionally random month aboard the Starship Voyager, where they have to deal with imprisonment, alien attacks, diplomatic meetings, and Kathryn's inability to talk about her feelings.

For the Captain Who Has Everything: A Prixin Story (Voyager) - Look. You can't just give me three delightful misfits for ONLY ONE EPISODE and not expect me to adopt them as my own. SO this is what happened next for the little Good Shepherd flock, where 'what happened next' is shenanigans to set up their Captain with her First Officer as a gesture of gratitude.

Growing Pains (SNW) - Aw, one of my early Chris and Una fics! This is one of the set I wrote while the first season was just airing weekly - hard to believe that was almost two years ago 😲 This one was the aftermath of Una 'I'm just fine-ing' her way into emergency surgery and Chris letting her know that there were things up with which he would not put - top of the list being losing his Number One.

Command Advice (SNW) - Another of the early SNW set! This was my 'spicier' take on the resulting conversation between Chris and Una after she learns about her Where Fun Goes to Die nickname. In one version, they have a very serious conversation about Starfleet principles. In *this* version, they're less serious. Also naked.

5. Do you respond to comments? Yes! Or at least I try. I love and cherish every comment, but I tend to run (very) behind on responding and have to play the game of 'is it weird to reply to a comment this late?'

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? My very first fic ever! Actually I think it might be my only fic with an angsty ending. I guess I got it all out of my system early. That one is Wednesday, a Sanctuary fic where Helen has a very sad day.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? Literally everything else. I can't even pick out of my collection of sappiness.

8. Do you get hate on fics? Not really.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? Yes, there's very little I would not be willing to at least try writing! Up to now I think I've written at least mildly smutty M/F, F/F, and F/M/M sexcapades and/or BDSM. I'm working my way around to some F/F/M for SNW if I could get the three of them to cooperate.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written? I think I've only written one crossover and it was for SNW/The Librarians, bringing about a meeting between Eve Baird and Una Chin-Riley, which we would have in a fair and just universe.

Wait, I take that back! I also had a little snippet on Tumblr where Hawkeye, BJ, Jonathan, and Ardeth meet up, because The Mummy/MASH is... certainly a combo. Actually, I think I also had a snippet of Gomez Addams meeting Hawkeye and BJ? What is it about MASH?

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not that I know of!

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? Also not that I know of.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? Kind of? The Discord crowdsourced the plot to a ridiculously hilarious fic and I wrote a bit of it for fun, but I'm not sure if that counts? Co-writing does sound like a good time, though!

14. What’s your all time favorite ship? Voyager! The happiest little ship in the Delta Quadrant 🚀

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? I have a lot of bits and pieces on my hard drive that will never be finished and released into the Ao3 wilds - the plot didn't work out/was barely a plot, I've moved on from the fandom, I was trapped in a fever dream of my nieces playing Frozen on repeat, blacked out, and woke up to 3 chapters dealing with the socio-political ramifications of Elsa decamping and Anna appointing the prince of another land in charge rather than Arendelle's Privy Council. Anyway.

The WIPs I have posted, though, I fully intend to finish at some point! It may take a while and it might not be my original planned ending, but they haunt me. So one day I will have to put them to rest. Possibly with a 2x4, tarp, and shovel.

16. What are your writing strengths? I like to think I'm pretty good at getting into the character's voice. I hope so, at least; I spend a lot of time on it! Also, humor, although that one is objective, of course.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? Commas. Clearly.

Structurally, it varies per fic, but I have a habit of running thin on plot. I start strong at A, want to get to B, but the middle gets kind of wander-y. This also leads to me sometimes stalling mid-project if I get distracted or pulled away - hence my current three WIPs. Though it doesn't help that the past six months have sucked on letting me have much free time.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? If it was short, easy dialogue in Spanish or French I might be able to swing it. Otherwise, I would need to phone a friend.

19. First fandom you wrote for? Sanctuary!

20. Favorite fic you’ve written? This is a hard one. I love them all for different reasons, some of which have more to do with the time I was writing them than with the actual contents. Reluctance was my first multi-chapter fic ever back in the FFN days, so that seems like a pretty good candidate. I learned so much while writing that fic!

BUNNY LORE!! i love talking so yes, i stan like 89 million groups so i'll do the ones i write for and then u can ask abt other groups i didn't mention if you're curious! also prewarning that literally every group i stan started with me trying not to stan them LMAODGSJ

bnd - i didn't stan them when they first debuted cuz for some reason i always try to stop stanning groups knowing im an addict smh. i also like to give groups a bit to Marinate before i stan so i held off! then in like august last year i started getting funnextdoor tik toks abt leehan and his fishtank and i decided i wanted to watch it for funsies cuz leehan was sooo pretty and so cute so i was curious and uh... yeah that was my first mistake 😭 i full on thought leehan was gonna be my bias but then taesan walked in and snatched me up and bnd is just so addictive i just had to stan. i stuck with bnd because they genuinely make me so happy, they're so fun and they remind me of all the best things about kpop, like i just love them so bad 😖😖 but i officially started stanning them the week after but sometimes came out cuz that song had me hooked 😭 omg i just remembered that their videos kept coming up on my youtube too like the universe was trying to get me to stan since like july 😭

riize - i didn't even attempt to not stan them actually 😭 sungtaro were my nct biases when they debuted so i really really wanted to support them on their new endeavors so i already had plans to at least become acquainted with riize but siren had me MOVINGGGGG 😭😭😭 like i haddd to get in on that like i was Hooked. i couldn't even give them the time to marinate cuz of sungtaro so i just hopped right in 😞 and then my sister started biasing wonbin QUICK and i started biasing anton for like a week and then seunghan collected me 😖 and riize gives me heavy nostalgia so like idk i just love them a lot

&team - i've been supporting them since debut bc enha are one of my ults and ive been familiar with kei since then (i didn't watch iland i just knew abt kei and was familiar with some of the other boys names) and i was so obsessed with under the skin but i didn't end up fully stanning them for a while. i started to learn their names just so i'd know who they were when i see them around and things like that. i didn't start to stan them more until like july last year when i watched more of their content and then i fell off again until like october i think and they quickly became one of my top groups cuz they're so fun idk

zb1 - um i fully wasn't supposed to stan cuz wanna one and jbj disbanding hurted bad enough but while bp was going on i kept seeing clips and THEY HAD ME ROLLINGGG 😭😭 but i was having self restraint ☝🏾🤨 but then sol (adoresol go follow her and send her asks) she told me to watch zb1 content on july 12th 2023 ☝🏾😌 im able to see it in our ig messages LMAODGSJ but i started watching them and learning their names that day, i even told her i liked jiwoong 😖 but yeah then they stuck after that day cuz they make me laugh and they're so fun idk
