Don’t mind me while I scream incoherently about the latest chapter of WsDB because holy shit was it good!!!

Ghost is the biggest shit ever and I love that for him (he deserves those strawberry’s).

all the gifts from his family the skull jumper were really well thought out (Soaps gonna lose his shit when he finds out Ghost’s part Scottish) The Akubra!!!! and the Skull omfg the sweet and twisted fluffy feelings 😭 They’re both in love and neither of the dumb arses realise it yet (I bet everyone else does though)

Poor price though he’s so worried for is anti social son. Ghost: *going out of his way to show affection and share things about himself with the team* Price: *sweating* wondering if he needs to call an ambulance or a priest first

Were Prices photos an 09 reference? How old is that hat?! I forgot you mentioned that Gaz’s girlfriend would be a spider! She must cop so much shit all the time (good on Kyle for not letting anyone add to it) I have a couple questions about her but all ask them later. Soap is so excited about his big family and ghost is about to go “hold my beer”. THE SPIRAL holy shit, like yes Ghost you do need therapy but that’s besides the point, your fucked up feelings are both weirdly sweet and reciprocated. Soap would 100% honour and respect every part of Ghost dead or alive they match each others freak. So your telling me that at the family show and tell Roach brought a photo of him with the rest of the 141 acting like idiots because they’re his family (your paying my physic bills because my heart just broke)

I love how Gaz and Roach are initially shocked by Ghost being trans but after it wears off they don’t actually care (meanwhile soap is in the background trying to do math) it’s just a thing like the sky is blue, the earth is round and Ghost is trans. The bigger shock is the whole rabbit situation, I can’t wait till soap finds out exactly what type of rabbit Ghost is. (Especially after what he just said lol) and Ghost’s last words for the chapter amounting to “I wouldn’t betray your trust but I have and will continue to fuck with you.

Sorry it's taken me a while to get back to this, but I wanted to give people a change to read it since this is a bit spoilery for chapter 3. ❤ Hopefully its been enough time, let's dive in!

Ghost being a little shit is one of my favorite parts of this fic, he deserves to be a menace.

Soap and his Akubra have been rotting my brain since it was first mentioned, and it will come up again. The man looks damn good in that hat.

Soap giving Ghost a fucking rabbit skull of all things, he's trying so hard to get into Ghost's good graces, and had no clue at the time how fucked up that action was 😂 next chapter will have our first taste of Soap's POV and his realization of the implications of his actions.

Price watching Ghost come out of his shell like 😰 lol the poor guy, he's never seen Ghost act like this and he's worried the man is losing it.

So Price's photos were a bit of a personal headcanon of mine, because Modern Warfare's Price isn't the first, only Price in the Call of Duty games. There was a Captain Price in Call of Duty and Call of Duty 2, who looks similar but his accent is way thicker and the timeline is set in WW2. There's also mention of a Johnathan Price in COD Black Ops. It's never explicitly stated (to my knowledge) that that man is one and the same as our Captain from MW. Anyway, I like to believe that the Price family has been sending their boys off to be Captains for generations.

Please ask about Gaz's spider GF, I love her, and want to talk about her!

Roach's family photos was fun and sad to write. Basically, by joining the military he severed ties with his old gang, who were all he had. So the 141 means everything to him. This will be important later. 😈

Ghost: I'm trans

Everyone: huh, okay, didn't know that. Woulda never guessed.

Ghost: also I'm a rabbit

Everyone: minds blown, chaos, worldview shattered

And lastly, as much as Ghost is fucking with and going to continue fucking with Soap, trust that I have all kinds of mental and emotional fuckery planned for you lot, my lovely readers. 😘

Hiya! For the ask game: 8, 14, 15 (😈), and 40?? Hope you’re doing well and taking time for yourself! Sending love ❤️

Hi my love!! I hope you’re doing well, too! It always makes my day to hear from you 🤍🤍

Putting my answers below the cut — (1) answers include insight into both current and completed fics (and a little tease at compass) and (2) because of potential discourse around realism in smut writing

8. Do you prefer the beginning, middle, or end of a story?

For writing — I definitely prefer an ending because usually, that means I have a good idea of where the story/chapter needs to go! As a reader, I love the middle 🤍 I love making connections and trying to predict what comes next

14. how do you write emotional scenes? Do you ever feel what the characters feel? Do you draw from personal experiences?

LMAOO okay, so most of my emotional scenes are brainstormed in the shower — and I sort of play it out like a movie in my head. I wouldn’t say I feel what the characters feel as I’m writing, but I often base emotions/emotional reactions on real life experiences.

As for drawing on real life experiences — YES. This has a range lmao. On one hand, the entirety of Phantasmagoria is based on different aspects of my life. The emotional toll and grief and experiences of Reader losing her mom is a direct retelling of my own mother’s death. There’s a piece near the end of Part III when Reader is telling Sanemi about the night her mom died, and she describes moving her mom’s hand over her hair again and again because she knew she wouldn’t feel that ever again. I did that the night my mom died. On the other hand, all of the partying and drug abuse was directly lodged from my college experiences — my sophomore year, specifically 😂

Then, you have the other end of the real life influencing art spectrum — in Netherwood, I had the idea to make Reader lose her eye after I got something stuck in my contact 😂

15. How do you write smut scenes? Do you get very visual or detailed? How important is it to be realistic?

Ooooh this is a good one! Most of the time, the smut develops around one very specific scene/image in my head. TMTS developed around Kyo eating Reader out. Compass’s first time smut scene was actually around the mental image I had of Sanemi picking her up and carrying her to her bed.

I think most people would agree that I’m very detailed — I have to rein myself in sometimes lmaooo. I’ve realized with Compass 3, I get quite detailed about Sanemi and Reader making out, so I’ve gotta trim that back aslsmndmdksan. However, I’m of the opinion that not every smut scene needs to be explicit. I think there’s something equally drool-worthy about reading only a couple of sentences that really only imply what’s going on.

I think realism is a really broad concept when writing smut. On one hand, fan fiction is a form of fantasy, and it’s meant for both readers and authors to explore things they probably won’t irl (for example: I will never fuck a werewolf). I think it can be dangerous to start applying real world expectations/morals to smut in general (and fiction as a whole), because that opens a very slippery slope to censorship. Furthermore, romance (and smut) as been a woman-dominated genre, and is a primary way women have been historically able to explore their own sexuality. It’s okay then to exaggerate a bit, in my mind, or maybe to do things that aren’t necessarily possible in real life (like, repeated rounds of sex, cockwarming, etc).

On the other hand, there is a line. No one is hitting the g-spot every single time, cervix fucking is usually very uncomfortable, AND, virginity loss does have some degree of discomfort. For example, a virgin isn’t going to know how to do everything perfectly, and that is where I try to be realistic 😂 at the end of the day, I really try to find a nice balance in smut writing!

40. RE fanart — answered here!

Ask me :)

Hi!

😅 What's a story or scene you've created that you're a smidge embarrassed exists?

😈 Has there been a point in a story where you did something just to be playfully mean to your readers?

🛒 What are some common things you incorporate in your fics? Themes, feels, scenes, imagery, etc.

👀 Tell me about an up and coming wip please!

thank you rae! 💗

questions

😈

I'd say, yes-ish? I like to put a bit of angst in my fics, for instance (not much, but more than what I would like, so it's mainly a plot devise and to keep readers on their toes). the last fic I published has a bit more pining angst than usual, and my upcoming wip is a whole self-indulgent angst tale. but I wouldn't say I put too much effort into being mean to my readers, though! it just either comes with the flow of the plot or doesn't.

🛒

I'm a sucker for aus that still manage to explore the characters' complexities, their canon depths, their troubles and traumas and desires in general. so I try and keep true to *how I read* the characters, without straying into ooc. I also love mutual pining, describing wylan from jesper's pov because the lovesick man is completely gone for him, writing canon-ish happenings but rewritten into og forms / aus. I also mostly write romantic stuff, getting together fics, meet-cute or meet-ugly, and lately I've been throwing myself at fantasy stuff rather than modern aus (httyd au, witch wylan, angel/demon, fairy oak au, prince wylan au.. a sprinkle of magic to liven things up a little, even though they are harder to write than modern aus / canon compliant - post canon fics, and most of them will never see the light of day😅)

👀

so! I've been having a major writer's block for the most of this summer, and lately I've been trying to get back to writing with either my crack wip "What size is your beautiful dick" based on this pic, or my witch wylan au, BUT what really got me going has been blind wylan au!

first thing first, I dreamt the whole of it so the plot is all but ready, but it's so self-indulgent that I was like... whatever! will not keep writing this! who would read it? but I love it so much that I can't not write it and not share it! it will be 4 chapters long (3 + epilogue), all different povs and based on the three stanzas to "soldier, poet, king". the name says the most of it: wylan has an accident and he loses his whole sight, à la jenna from pll, and his father orders him to never leave his home "because he is clumsy and needs to be protected" (à la 10 years old rapunzel who saw the beauty of life before being forced away from it in his tower), thus cutting his relationship with his only friend and crush (you guessed it) jesper.

small snippet from it under the cut :)

"I'd like to see the swing by the lake," Inej says before she can change her mind.

"Sure," says Wylan. "I'm certain that Nina..."

"I don't want Nina to come with me. I… I want to see the swing and the lake and the hill your mum painted on and the fields you played with your friend and I want you to come with me."

Wylan's jaw locks and clenches so hard she swears she can hear his teeth clasp together from afar.

"I can't…"

"You can," she gently says. "I see you, Wylan, and there's no way in the world you can't. You are brave. And strong."

"I'm afraid."

"He is not here anymore," she tries.

"And nothing else is," Wylan snaps, tears welling at his wide, blue eyes, mouth open around labored breaths. "Not for me. No lake and no swing and no—" he bites his lip, but by now she knows what he means. Who he means.

😅I have a whole fic that I swiped out of my ao3 because I'm dead embarrassed about it, so I would say *everything* about it! but also in terms of wips, the bonus chapter I had written (and will never publish) to that fic, that is a whole pwp thingie and, as I found out, I'm so bad at writing pwp or nsfw in general because it makes me self conscious/ embarrassed. here's a tiny tiny bit of it:

"I want to paint you," Wylan softly muses, sometimes, and Jesper sits or lays still — well, not actually still still, but he tries — for as long as Wylan needs. Wylan usually sketches the shape, border, lines, or however they are called, and then he doesn't need Jesper to stay put until he has to work on colors and lighting and such. So, Jesper usually crawls between Wylan's legs, and he does his best to distract him from painting.

He never manages: Wylan keeps painting and he holds Jesper there, mouth slack and full with Wylan's unmoving cock.

Every time, he orders Jesper to go back to the sofa, or bed, or chair, and Jesper obliges, with heat pooling in his stomach and straining the skin of his own cock.

(Wylan makes sure to make love to him good and hard, after. You have been so good and so patient, you are beautiful. You are perfect, just for me, he whispers between pushes and kisses and moans, and Jesper thinks that that is worth all the wait he has to endure).

Okay finally had a chance to read chapter 12 and oh my goddddddddddddd I have so many feelings and was losing my mind the entire time but my highlights are

- Daphne and E is my favorite dynamic in every SDMI fanfic and this is no exception😭 the “she’s Daphne of course she found the exact shirt in the right size” is what gets me

- “This isn’t what I wanted! I wanted you on my side- at my side!” “You should have thought of that before you cursed me to live in a world without her in it.” OP?? OP YOU CANT DO THIS TO ME-

You were… “LOSING MY MIND” the entire time??? 🤣🤣🤣

“Ya get it, cuz that was the name of the chapter- Yyyyyeeeeahhhh!!!” 🤪

Ah, Irony. Puns. I love it. Lol

For real tho, I’ve been waiting for Lesbian-Duck-Lord specifically to respond to this for a while and the wait was worth it!!! 😁

Personally, I think the scene where Arthur just OBLITERATES Pericles, Brad, and Judy has gotten such positive feedback because it fulfills this desire we’ve had ever since we saw the show to stand up for Mr. E and tell Pericles EXACTLY what we think of him and what he’s doing. And I’m having Arthur do it basically on the entire fandom’s behalf. 😂

And yes - I’m VERY proud of those last couple lines of that scene. They’ve been in my brain for such a long time and I was so happy to finally write them down and share them!

Muahahahaha! Yes! Yeeeesss! I love making my readers’ hearts explode!!! 😁😈

And yeah - Daphne and E is not a dynamic I ever expected and yet I keep encountering it in SDMI fics and it’s great. 😁

Stay tuned for more chapters of “One of Us”! I’ve already started on the next chapter and I’ve done another drawing I might post in a bit! I think you in particular will like this one!!!
