*pesters you like a cat prodding at a glass of water bc i luv u* 2, 7, 15, 25 & 31 for the fic writer ask game 😘

similar to a cat i am batting at this ask with love and affection! 💕

2. do you plan each chapter ahead or write as you go?

in my early fic-writing days of 2017/2018 i had concepts which i felt were best suited to multi-chapter works but, once i got writing, i either lost momentum/enthusiasm/didn’t have a solid plan or structure, so i’ve kept to oneshots and, as part of this, i tend more to write as i go. however, sometimes for a particular concept i have a strong idea of a couple of key scenes so will write them out briefly first before i return and deal with them sequentially

7. how do you choose which pov to write from?

it’s usually sometimes i either feel a particular pov is the one best suited to a particular fic or the fic exists because i want to get in a particular character’s headspace. like, in maternal instincts, i wanted to look at a genderqueer thomas specifically so had to do it from his pov (which was fun!), then in he has stood the test, jirv’s dead when the fic starts, so it similarly had to be from malcolm’s pov. though, i have noticed that, despite my love for him, i haven’t published a fic that centres on ned’s pov so i’m making a direct effort to rectify that!

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

for me it comes down to what i like reading in smut! i think it’s hot when specifics like body sweat/hair/muscle aches are described so i always try and include at least some of that. generally, i think as a writer i tend to prioritise dialogue so i always include some sort of dirty talk. in terms of realism, i think it can be hot to get into the specifics of stretches/aches, especially when writing about penetrative sex; i’m also a convert to the inherent sexiness of bad/mid sex so in terms of that (i.e. moments of discomfort, first times, being sore afterwards) i like writing in. but on the whole i don’t really get bogged down with realism in regard to, like, good bdsm practice or the use of condoms/other contraceptives. also i write a good bit of breeding kink so don’t usually highlight birth control there! also i don’t pay that much mind to types of lube in smut fic. is spit ideal? no. is it sexy? very!

25. what fic do you wish you got more of a response on?

all of them. i’m gagging for validation and praise. but seriously, probably scenes from a marriage i think? i put a lot of work into the whole maternal instincts series and sfam has the misfortunate of being written a good bit later on the other two, but it’s also Way more substantive, i think, than hunger pains which is more popular. i also have a couple of really new terror fics, shoulder to tender shoulder and he has stood the test, but they’re only a week old so it’s probably not fair to compare them with stuff i’ve had out for longer. there’s a couple of other fics i’ve written for the silmarillion fandom but i think my terror fics are better written? probably because they’re newer. oh! also borne through the clouds, for any hotd enjoyers. i wanted to do a bit of an introspective piece for helaena and her grief, focusing on her bond with dreamfyre but, especially considering my other two hotd works, the girlies did Not like it as much! possibly because it focused on helaena and not aemond but what can you do

31. do you start with the characters or the plot when writing

probably the characters i think? i usually have a scene or an exchange i see very vividly that i write down and go from there and, while it usually revolves around a particular au/plot/conflict, i think i tend to prioritise the characters in fic because i enjoy writing dialogue and examining dynamics/relationship

hello love! so, for the ask game: honeymoon and/or beleriand courtship fic, please! ✨✨

thank you for the ask em! love you 💖💖 i’ll answer both because i love any excuse to ramble about my blorbos!

the honeymoon fic is (unsurprisingly) joplittle and acts as a prologue to the joplittle kids verse (basically the twins are conceived during its length). the premise is basically that thomas and edward take a long overdue honeymoon to portugal. it’s omegaverse and features some domesticity and some breeding kink because i’m realising that those are features of Helen Fic. i probably have the least written for it but it’s also the one i want out first so here is a snippet of what’s been written so far:

Thomas sat up on the bed, stark naked as the heat of Mediterranean summer had coated him in sweat, even in the middle of the night, and stretched his neck to allow Edward room to nuzzle against his scent gland.

“It’s already gone eleven o’clock.”

Edward grunted, licking the dew of Thomas’ perspiration from his body with a groan.

“What of it?”

the beleriand courtship is a sequel to a maglor/fingolfin fic which i wrote two (?!) years ago which is maglor and fingolfin using each other for mutually destructive trauma sex, which you can read here if you’re interested. the courtship sequel is basically a continuation of this affair as both of them blur the lines between familial and romantic as well as love and hate. there’s a much shorter snippet here:

Fingolfin holds Maglor just a second longer than he should. His hands dwell just slightly further that would be proper.

He feels the weight of his uncle’s gaze on him. Enjoys it.

Last song: uhh I’m ashamed to say I haven’t listened to much music lately, but I’ve been on a podcast binge while I work - The Handsome Podcast is hilarious!

Currently watching:

- Shōgun - ugh it’s so good. One of the first things that’s gripped me since Black Sails. (No spoilers, but… damn they really keep you on your toes. Rocks are slippy, mom’s spaghippi 🫠 iykyk).

- Deep Space Nine

- Dickinson

Currently obsessed with:

The remastered Star Wars Battlefront II - I feel like a teenager again playing couch co-op with @beorncraghopper like we used to all those years ago!

And chai tea. Or any tea for that matter tbh.

Rules: Choose any three fandoms (in random order) and answer the questions, then tag 10 people you want to know better

i was tagged by @thistableforone, thank you so much! 😇 (and sorry it's taken me forever!)

I choose:

the terror

a song of ice and fire

the witcher (i'm mostly familiar with book canon and tw3)

the first character you loved:

it took me a while to start recognizing any characters. probably goodsir or fitzjames?

it's been so long i'm not sure. let's say arya, i feel like she's always been my girl

geralt, but i think it still took me a while to warm up to him

the character you relate to most:

...i'm not sure about relate, but i sure project a lot of stuff on dundy and/or edward

brienne has some relatable qualities but she's also like 100x more amazing than me

probably someone like (book) triss because she has some kinda pathetic moments lol (but she also has her sweet moments!)

the character you'd slap

i feel like many of them could be slapped at some point in the story. but i'll choose dundy when he and edward first bring up leaving the sick behind. while james is still alive!!

so many but especially theon in the early books

geralt when he's being a stubborn idiot with the "geralt's company" characters

three favorite characters in order of preference

james, dundy, ned

arya, brienne, theon

geralt, ciri, and uhhh i can't really decide between dandelion, yennefer and milva

a character you liked at first but don't like anymore

idk. there are characters like goodsir that i liked in the beginning, and i just don't really think about him in fandom context, but i wouldn't say i don't like him, you know?

i can't really think of any

again, i'm not sure there are any

a character you did not like at first but now do

probably all of those guys i didn't recognize at first?? i also can't remember what i thought about fitzjames when i first started watching, but i could see him going in this category

i think i was kinda lukewarm on sansa but i appreciate her these days. also possibly theon, but i've loved him for so long that i'm not sure anymore

cahir! he's soooo poor little meow meow material, i love him. but i definitely didn't expect to start liking him

three OTPs

fitzier, fitzconte, joplittle

arya/gendry, jaime/brienne, theon/robb

i've mostly read geralt/emhyr and geralt/eskel fics. i'm also kind of intrigued by the enemies-to-lovers possibilities of ciri/cahir

favourite colour?

i don't have one in particular but i love greys and purples

currently watching?

iwtv season one which i have been meaning to do for a while now. also i never really stop watching seconds from disaster

last movie?

master and commander: the far side of the world was on tv last night during dinner and it pleased me greatly! apart from that i saw alien: romulus in the cinema and had a lot of fun with it

sweet/spicy/savoury?

all good in their individual ways but i don't like food that's more than mildly spicy and probably have a slight preference for savoury food

relationship status

single and always have been

current obsessions?

joplittle as a concept. the terror broadly. anything relating to the idea of edward little and/or thomas jopson.
