#i've been getting back into writing low effort stuff w friends

[reynaruina]

Greetings! We're wondering, did you plan on continuing the Ponytail AU? It's really enjoyable, especially for the older alters in purple system. If not, we'll still be re-reading this work of art! #ZaDr

Hello there! Apologies for answering this (and all) asks so very late, I get extremely ashamed if I can't get back to people in a timely manner and then I stop respoinding and shit and aaaah it's been a tough few months (few years)

About your question, well...PT Dib became kind of a dakr corner in my mind. A place I went to sulk when things went bad in life, went to express frustrations and let out feelings I had caged up, and all that dakr energy kept building and trailing behind me as times changed and things got a little better for me. So I had to take a break from it, for my own mental well-being. But that dark corner has a purpose, it's a good garbage chute, a recycler, a place where I can put in bad thoughts and feelings and transforms them into something that helps people or at least entertain them. When life gets bad, I return ot it. And well...let's just say I might need that dark corner a lot more very soon :)

thanks for the tag @chameliyun !

1. How many works do you have on ao3?

Officially, 10. Unofficially? You'll never know. And I'm working on waaaaay too many things at once so. you can look forward to that.

2. What's your total ao3 word count?

163,934. pretty low considering the fact that i write like a maniac. It's just that i don't finish my works easily.

3. What fandoms do you write for?

I've written for haikyuu!! and bungou stray dogs. i would love to write for a couple more but I'm consumed by bsd brainrot now. All day everyday. THEY WON'T LEAVE ME ALONE.

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

friend, please (don't take your life away from me)- 449

he ain't heavy, he's my brother- 292

do you like or like like me? - 213

where we're from, there's no sun- 208

the love you gave me remains, that's why I'm still alive- 149

5. Do you respond to comments?

Yes! Even though I've been putting off responding to them for sometime now because of classes but! they never fail to make my day. I keep coming back to them. i might not always know what to say, but trust me when i say i'm grateful for every single one of them <3

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

hmmmm i write fics with a lot of angst content ngl but i also make sure to add happy stuff in between or at least try my best to make it bittersweet. but in my fic 'darling, don't you weep', no such efforts were made lolol. just Pain.

7. What is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

i'd say my long ass iwaoi fic, till forever falls apart.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

nope! only lots of love which i'm immensely grateful for :D

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

no comment.

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

I have not written one yet, but i might write one in the future! recently i've been thinking a lot about saiki & mob & anya shenanigans so. that might become a thing.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

no again

12. What's the longest you've spent working on one fic? And the shortest?

longest? a year almost, on my iwaoi fic that i mentioned above. i put a lot of effort and love into that one and it contains a piece of me. as for shortest, i'd say my femskk fic (fleurs du mal) that i finished in two? days or more like few hours distributed b/w those days because of the brainrot @littlesp1ders inflicted on me.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

no, but if all goes according to plan @feralshadowdemon and i will be writing a fyozai fic sometime before we die.

14. What's your all-time favorite ship? From all fandoms?

how dare you ask me this question. i'll give you a few: hilson (house md), iwaoi (haikyuu), and a Lot of rarepairs from bsd. but listen. listen. skk has me in a chokehold. i can't escape. someone please help. i might be very biased towards them.

15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

my answer would probably make you go :O. it's a queerplatonic dynamic analysis of kita and oikawa. yes, the captains of inarizaki and aoba johsai. their personalities clash in every way possible and i really, really want to explore that.

16. What are your writing strengths?

i would say my strength lies in the fact that i'm not afraid to be vulnerable and experiment with my writing. and i love writing. that's what makes my writing good, i'd say.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

i get frustrated trying to write certain scenes with very specific emotions and actions because it's in my head but it's hard to make people see it the way i do. but i always take some time off, come back to it and write until i'm satisfied with the result.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

haven't done it yet, but i would do it if the story needs it/it enhances the storytelling. i'm also naming my current wip in tamil (indru, netru, nalai- literally translated to today, yesterday and tomorrow. it's a story related to time loop, reincarnations and the timeless nature of skk's love for each other)

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Published: haikyuu!! Unpublished: bbc sherlock or harry potter, i'm not sure.

20. Favorite fic you've written?

mean question. all my fics hold a special place in my heart for different reasons. but one fic that always makes me feel a strange (good strange) emotion is my brother-sister dynamic dazai &yosano fic, where we're from, there's no sun. underrated, imo. yes i'm hyping up my own work what about it.

i'd love to hear from yall, but no pressure! @feralshadowdemon @just-a-dinosaur-i-guess @zukkaoru @roobgumball95

20 Q's for Fic Writers

thanks for the tag @spacejammie-eimmajecaps!

How many works do you have on ao3? Officially 8, but I have one on anon and one currently unrevealed in a fic exchange

What's your total ao3 word count? 61,996

What fandoms do you write for? So far I've written for Death Note, Tangled the Series, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Haikyuu, plus a couple of crossovers. Haikyuu is definitely my main rn though

What are your top five fics by kudos? #1: Frosting and Freckles: 69 (nice) #2: Draw Me Near: 39 #3: [embarrassing anon fic]: 35 #4: Varian Is Not a Wizard: 25 #5: Midnight Coda: 21

Do you respond to comments? Yeah, I love to! I don't get a lot so they always make me happy :)

What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? probably the anon fic sdfsk but other than that, Midnight Coda is kinda bittersweet because of what happens later

What is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? hmm idk but the sappiest is definitely Frosting and Freckles

Do you get hate on fics? Not so far, thankfully! I don't think I have a big enough readership for that haha

Do you write smut? If so, what kind? I have not; not sure what kind it would be if I did

Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written? I love writing crossovers! A PJO/HP crossover was actually what got me into fanfic. Unfortunately most of them are merely concepts or abandoned (for now), but as for crazy, I think my Lunar Chronicles/PJO one is the craziest in terms of how the plot grew out of control from a simple "what if these two characters interacted" to "I could rewrite most of this series," which is why I got stuck and put it on hiatus lol but I do want to get back to it someday. Maybe once I finish my other active crossover

Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not to my knowledge

What's the longest you've spent working on one fic? And the shortest? Uhhh well if we count "working on" as "having it in the back of mind to get to but haven't worked on in months," probably Sent from the Heavens lol. If not, then Varian Is Not a Wizard (just over two years since I published the first chapter). Shortest is definitely Midnight Coda, since I wrote that pretty much in a day iirc

Have you ever co-written a fic before? No, but it sounds like it could be fun!

What's your all-time favorite ship? From all fandoms? Dude I have no idea how to narrow that down. Best I can give you is my current fave is Tsukkiyama from Haikyuu

What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? Probably my "Leo Valdez ends up in the ATLA world" one :sob: It never made it past the word doc and about three pages of story and I haven't looked at it in like two years

What are your writing strengths? I like to think I'm pretty good at dialogue and grammar/spelling

What are your writing weaknesses? Everything else (jk). I am awful at describing scenes/settings; I get bored writing them so I don't put as much effort in as I should haha. I also tend to ramble and use passive voice too much

Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic? I haven't done it, but I think it's fine as long as it fits the context

First fandom you wrote for? Published: Avatar: The Last Airbender. Unpublished: Percy Jackson

Favorite fic you've written? I think it's still Bent Out of Shape. It's so niche, but I had an idea and I executed it, and I'm proud of what I accomplished. Although once I finish Varian Is Not a Wizard, that might take the top slot.
