Summary: You and Wilbur have a writing date, and your younger brother (Ranboo) makes fun of you relentlessly for it.

__

"I'm just saying, y/n, its an extremely cheesy idea," your younger brother said, helping you put dishes away at your new apartment, you had to say it was really sweet of him to come help you move.

"Well, a cheesy date is the perfect kind of date, especially when i havent seen him in 7 months," you explained, handing them another plate.

"I understand that, but, really? A writing date?" Ranboo poked fun at you.

"I like writing short stories, he likes writing songs, its better than the movies, and i havent seen him-"

"In 7 months, yeah, yeah, i know. Youve said it 10 times since we got here. Does he even know you landed?"

"Not yet im going to surprise him, now, put the cups in the next cupboard," you said, opening another box, pulling out a few coffee cups to put on the counter. You were about to grab another one when your phone started ringing.

You answered it, putting on speaker phone.

"Hi, Baby, you're on speaker, and Ranboos here, so watch your language,"

"Okay, Love, do you know when you're planes going to leave? Or when you'll land?" Wilbur asked. You felt a little bad not telling him youd already landed, but you had been planning this for a month.

"Im not sure, but I'll let you know, okay?"

"Okay! I love you, y/n,"

"I love you too, Wil!"

-----

You'd just gotten to wils house, having left ranboo at your place, because he insisted on finishing putting stuff away for you.

You texted wil saying you ordered food to his house, which was actually very common for you twos relationship.

It wasnt a lie, either, you had your laptop, a bottle of wine, and 2 small bags of groceries to cook a dinner for the two of you.

He opened to door, and had his arms wrapped tightly around you before you could even say hi. You hugged him back, nuzzling your face in the crook of his neck.

"How long jave you been here? I would've picked you up at the airport if you'd told me-"

"I know you would've, Wil, i wanted to surprise you," you whispered.

-

You were sat accross from eachother, listening to music, eating the dinner you cooked, and writing.

"Hey, Love? Do you think i could get away with rhyming 'Doe eyes' with 'Although I' or no?" Wilbur asked, looking up at you.

"Maybe..." you said thinking it over in your head "it depends on the vibe of the song,"

He nodded, humming a tune, and nodding before crossing it out of his notebook. You laughed quietly, and he looked at you smiling.

"I love you so much," he says, watching you lovingly. You smiled.

"I love you too, Baby,"

1, 3, 15, + 25 !! — dreamsclock :]

:O ty for the ask!!! oooooh these are so exciting to answer!!!! This does get a little long so after the 1st q I put a read more lmao

1. Tell us about your current project(s) – what’s it about, how’s progress, what do you love most about it?

- My current project aaaaaaa!!!!!!! Okay, so it's a witch/supernatural ranboo-centric au called The Mystery of Deofell, (I also have a blog for it that I'll begin posting more behind the scenes for TMOD and fun tidbits!! @the-mystery-of-deofell ) I actually have all of the plot marked down, unwritten as of rn cause I wanna complete my character outlines. I'd hate to retcon a characters backstory just cause I didn't realize it'd clash or cause a big 'ol plothole in the story later on, plus I wanna have a handle on who these character are!! Since the plots most of what I have rn, I can't talk about it much, but I will say in all my years of writing, I consider this my greatest plotline yet!!!!!! It's kept me hooked for months now, and I still get beyond excited about it :D

3. What is that one scene that you’ve always wanted to write but can’t be arsed to write all of the set-up and context it would need? (consider this permission to write it and/or share it anyway)

- This actually ties back around to TMOD! There's a scene I've always wanted to write, one that tears everything in a story apart and puts it back together like Frankenstein's monster, one that takes all the hard work gone into writing and shreds it to pieces, and then it's the reader and the author working together to understand what happened. And yeaaaah this is vague af, why? Because I finally get to write this!!!!! It'll be a biiiiiiig scene in TMOD, and I'm so happy cause this is a particular scene that I've wanted to write since I Started writing, but I didn't feel I had the skills to do it justice before.

15. Which is harder: titles or summaries (or tags)?

- How about all of the above 😫 titles are a lil bit easier than the other two, with that I can take from the story and it's chill. Or hell, I could slap on a very self explanatory title and be done with it lmao but summaries aaaaaaaa tags aaaaaaaaaaa creating the summary for TMOD was pure pain fueled by 3am exhaustion that led to an actually decent summary that I've since cleaned up, but that's a rarity for me! I'm notoriously shitty at summaries but I try my darndest. And man. I created a draft for TMOD on ao3 and waaat the hellllllll do I even tag this as !!!!! I'm a big hater of the rpf tags, so I refuse to use those even if it'd give the story more reach. Tbh if as many people as possible converted the rpf tags to character tags, it might just really outline the problem we have with the hecking tags for dsmp. Anyways what else do I even describe this story with, like. should I use ao3 tags like I do tumblr tags? Cause I sure talk a lot in tags. Eh, problem for another time.

25. What part of writing is the most fun?

- Fair warning, I'm bout to get real sappy lmao For me, Every part of writing is so sooo much fucking fun. I adore analyzing writing, figuring out the gears that make a story tick. I love researching absurd and mundane things for stories, learning about things that might not even make an appearance in the story, but I think that learning about them adds an undertone of knowledge to the writing that gives it a certain solidity for the reader. With TMOD I want to build my outlining skills, as I used to only keep pages of info on stories so I would cross over events, but I never truly outlined, and thus far it's been so so rewarding to see my story laid out, to have a word count I want to reach (50,000) and an estimated word count I may reach once the story is complete (with each chapter being around 5k words and there being a min of 30 chapters that's like. a lil biiiit more that 50k lmao)... I'm keeping it all on a physical copy, and I just love having it in a notebook and marking things I like with my green pen and going through and taking my red pen to things that no longer fit into the story or checking off my lil boxes and putting lil hearts round the edges of the pages. I love writing different forms of dialogue, analyzing how each character would speak based on background, world building, and their own personal traits. I love describing the scenes, being the person that breathes life into a world of my own creation, I love prose and letting myself get carried away in the magical, flowery tone it creates. I love limitations in writing, learning how to say everything that needs to be said within a certain word count, learning to utilize different povs to aid to the method the story is told, taking my lil writers camera and being the director of the story that says "By god this scene just needs to be in first person!!" I love practicing writing scenes. There's a short scene in TMOD that I've written several times over, 3rd limited with past tense, 3rd limited with present, 3rd limited that focuses in on the character's pain or focuses on the character's surroundings. Once I'm finished toying around with 3rd limited I want to try out omniscient, and then 1st, and using the tense to decide how to best portray the character and world. I love learning about all of the gears of writing so much, just as much as I love using them in my writing!!!

Thank you for the ask Sparrow <3<3<3

This is from the writing meta ask game if anyone wants to send some in :D
