#idk what the word is. OC centric fandoms?

[thegreatyin]

ffxiv and fallen london feel like the same genre of fandom in the sense that upon getting invested in them you're forced to sign a contract stating you must make a weird little guy to potentially nerd over. and you Will.

Here, have a pinned post

Hello and welcome to, uh, yeah whatever this hot mess is *gestures loosely to entire blog*.

I’m a novice writer, artist, and most importantly, far too lazy to have a bunch of organized sideblogs for separating out my own art/writing, reblogs, and shitposts, so welcome to my personalized serotonin dumpster—the gang’s all here. If you care to sift through its contents, this stuff below might help.

A lot of my posting is Naruto related—the akatsuki specifically—but you’ll find a mishmosh of Stuff n’ Things™ as I tend to hyper-fixate on whatever's clever for me at any given moment (but always return home to Naruto—idk what that says about me tbh, but I’ve accepted it and you should too).

I always tag characters and ships and sometimes add semi-intelligible thoughts that no one needs. Otherwise, here are some recurring tags:

#firefly art - My art

#firefly writing - My writing or talking about writing

#firefly snippets - Drabbles/small one-shots for prompt fills

#art for a fic - Art I’ve either drawn, been gifted, or commissioned specifically for a posted fic

#art commission - Art I’ve commissioned

#OC: Izumi - Art of my main Naruto OC, Izumi

#GIVE SAKURA KUBIKIRIBOCHO or #Sakura with a big sword - Art of Sakura with the executioner’s blade, Kubikiribocho. Why yes, it is my fetish, thank you for noticing.

Fic Masterlist:

I have some fics of varying length, completeness, and quality; with rare exception, you can count on them being Akatsuki-centric. In no particular order...

tagged by @leenik-geelo to list my 5 favorite fics i've written! like 4 of them are from my current fandom—i just think while my older fics are very Me and i like them, i'm always learning and i think (hope) it shows the more i write

that said!! on with the list

leave a light in the window (sw, 32k, padmé-centric gen, may 2021): this was a little ambitious for me at the time, and i went in sooo not knowing what i wanted to do with the premise that i discarded 17k and went a totally different direction. i think there's ways it's clumsy, but i also think i managed a fair amount of what i wanted to do with it, and the fact that i wrote it all before posting meant i got to figure out what structure i wanted (chapter v the storm is my favorite in that respect). my niche gen baby <3

trembling on the branch, unfurl your petals and grow (word of honor, 47k, wenzhou, oct 2021-april 2022): this was my first fic in this fandom and the first long work i finished while posting it as a wip. (i have a horrendous record of starting multi-chapters and not finishing them). i'm also just really fond of it; it was so fun to work in chengling's pov, and get to give some gentle endings, and play with my cast of minor characters and ocs. it's also really mixed in with my experience of/feelings while making friends in this fandom!

calling us home across the open yards (word of honor, 6k, wenzhou (but mostly about zzs & jiuxiao and zzs & chengling, july 2022): did the world need a modern us au of them from me? debatable. but this is here bc this au has become kind of an ongoing story to think about & talk about with @deepestbluesky, thinking about their lives and relationships many years down the line. like i like this fic but also it's the tip of an iceberg.

Millions of Suns Left (word of honor, 14k, wenzhou, oct 2022): tbh i just really think i managed this one. ship fic is still an ongoing struggle but i think i did it well here, and this kind of au is sooooo my happy place but for once i didn't let it carry me away too much to just be satisfied with the one story. (i mean i do have sequels i want, but i think this story stands alone really well). idk it's a good fic.

strange thing found (word of honor, 19k, wenzhou, dec 2022): frankly beyond this being a banger it's here bc writing it was so much FUN. sky is obviously my co-conspirator with a lot shl these days but writing a fic together was great, and i think it's stronger for being both of us together. also, i have lost it about how cute bats are so many times bc of this (ostensibly) monster fic.

tagging in (no pressure ofc) @deepestbluesky @orchisailsa @rainsfalling @antique-forvalaka @bladedweaponsandswishycoats

[fonulyn]

My turn, my turn, my turn.

1: Which fic did you finish and go, "Well, I didn't see that one coming"?

2: Which fic were you surprised did as well as it did?

3: Which fic did you feel sad to finish?

oh fun! :D

lol okay i (surprisingly) couldn't pick just one so here's my top contenders and my reasoning for them.

heal the scars and change the stars (Piers/Leon, getting back together, near death for Leon but what else is new :'D) lmao this one came to me in a dream, i literally woke up all "okay then" and had to then work it into a bit more coherent thing, but it ate at me until i did so. but yeah didn't see it coming, my subconsciousness cooked it up from somewhere lol.

also life healed like a wound (we will be alright) (Piers/Leon, breaking up and getting back together) was a similar thing, I woke up one morning with the breakup scene seared into my brain and I just had to write it. but of course I couldn't let them be unhappy so i also had to fix it! i thought i'd write a couple of fics for this pairing, but somehow it ended up taking over my heart in a storm. now this series has over 100k words and i've written like a hundred fics of the pair so :'D we all see how that turned out.

my jaded heart is yours to poison with your flame (Krauser/Leon, DC-ish) was also something similar, I played Darkside Chronicles with my brother and I thought I'd just write one quick fic to get the pairing out of my system :'D surprise, lmao, to this day it remains one of my top fave pairings :'D

there are others, too, that I never thought I'd write but somehow did. the Chris/Wesker smut, it's not a pairing I'd be particularly into but the fic demanded to happen, or the Adam/Leon companion piece for Tir's fic that I legit still don't understand where it came from :'D, or the monsterfucking series considering I thought I'd forever be too chickenshit to write any of it, or the Krauser's back series I firmly thought would be just one fic but turned into a trilogy :'D

or last chance garage (ot3 retirement fic lol) that was supposed to only be a quick 2k at most, but turned into 8k somehow before letting me go. not complaining, i think it turned good, but it wasn't exactly the intention lol.

2. the angsty answer is that the ones i desperately want to do well never seem to, and then the ones that actually do well are some random things i just threw out there lol. the less angsty answers are:

outside of the RE fandom I'm legit surprised that nobody's perfect (TOG, mostly a group fic tbh) got so popular, it's a feelgood "I think I'm funny" kind of fic lmao and it's got almost twice the kudos to the next most kudosed fic of mine. i mean it was fun to write, it still makes me smile, but i thought some of the more serious fics i put much more thought into would be better received :'D not complaining, it's nice that the feelgood fic did well. another one i'm surprised about is the super old kpop fic (Resurgence) that I reposted on ao3 on request, because holy shit i've never gotten that many comments ever. not even when I was actively in that fandom.

in the RE fandom I'm mostly surprised that now drunk on lust I drown in you (forever within I'm lost in you) (Chris/Leon, get together pwp) was as popular as it was. it was supposed to be a quick short pwp, it ran away from me, and i guess that's a good thing :'D also my first fic in this fandom, we didn't know how to fly so high (burned down before we reached the sky) (Chris/Leon, getting back together, idk what else random tropes), i... when I posted the first chapter it got exactly one comment and I thought "oh well, might as well finish anyway" and it was supposed to be my first and last RE fic. but looking back at it now? it's accumulated quite a nice amount of feedback over the years, which is nice :)

also the Leon has a son, surprise! -series did surprisingly well lol especially since the second part has an OC-centric pairing.

3. short answer is none, really, because i'm in general always happy when I get something done and finish a story! it's such a nice feeling of accomplishment when i can look at a complete fic and let it be free.

but I suppose that when I'll finally wrap up the self-indulgent series it'll be a bittersweet moment and i'll be sad to let it go. although right now i've been stalling with it anyway. feelings are complicated. but yeah, that series has been a part of my life for so long it'll require some mourning when it's gone.

[e1ectrostatic]

since i’m coming back i also feel obliged to make an informal update post; not for anyone in particular, just as a sort of digital diary entry. ramble about the past 2+ years and what i wanna do now under the readmore

i know in retrospect, 2 years or so is not a long time at all, but it still Feels like forever ago since i attempted to be active on tumblr, mostly because of how different my interests and priorities are now. so i still think it warrants a word dump

in the past 2+ years since i’ve last been active on tumblr, i’ve let new things come along and alter my brain chemistry. 2 years ago, i was really into posting oso-san fanart, but i’m no longer interested in participating in that fandom (or what’s left of it), so i’m letting myself move on to other stuff. i was also into posting ocs, but my investment in that has died quite a bit. it’s now an interest i’d prefer to indulge privately, if at all. i was also into warrior cats, but again, that interest died down and i want to focus on other stuff. i think the only things about my activity that won’t change is posting cringe and reblogging random shit i find funny

as for what i’m currently invested in, i’m mostly into identity v now, and will most probably be an idv-centric blog. but i do still want this blog to include some general interests and personal posts as well. i’m too lazy to maintain a bunch of sideblogs. another way i’ve changed is, i haven’t discovered i’m fictionkin (that discovery was a longer time ago), but its prominence in my life grew substantially, to a point i can’t hide it without feeling suffocated. so i’m gonna use this blog as an outlet for that part of myself as well. when i was first getting into idv i never thought itd put me in the blender this bad but here i am... look how i turned out... anyway i’m also into genshin impact now, and idk how much of that i’ll post or reblog, but it rots my brain so i won’t eliminate the possibility. i can’t think of any other interests prominent enough that it’d be safe to guess it’d be a focus of this blog... i think i’ll just let my impulses guide me amen. okay fr though i’m a hodgepodge of random interests and whims so my friends and anyone who decides to follow this page are just gonna have to deal with that

as for how i’ve changed as a person, um.. scratches head... i’ve changed a lot, but not at all. my art improved a lot, i think. i’ve gone through lots of fictionkin-related self discovery and introspection that put me in the blender, and also my gender has done more cartwheels than i can count. i’ve grown up a little bit (as much as one can do when aging from 17-20 LMAO) and had many experiences, good and bad. going forward, i hope to get out of my shell more and feel free to interact with people. i also hope to become more comfortable existing online in general, and let go of the extreme lurker impulse. i discovered a lot of very skilled artists on twitter, as well as discovered very cool communities! i want in on that, and hopefully one day i can shake off the shyness

ok thats it i think... o7

hey! just sending an ask for fun: what are your current biggest interest(s)? if you had to write an essay on any topic you wanted, what would the title/summary be? hope you’re doing well today!

honestly at this exact moment. I'd say probably bones or chicago med. and if I could write an essay on anything,,, maybe on the mistreatment of women in the one chicago universe and specifically how pregnancy is too often used as a tool to hurt them. it's just fascinating (and also horrifying) to me the way it has happened on multiple occasions across all three shows (not including chicago justice bc it had like. two episodes)

like obviously I get that pregnancy isn't always a beautiful magical thing, but the fact that (in the OC-verse anyway, because we have literally had one trans character), it's a female-exclusive experience, and is then almost always used as a negative thing? idk something about it just rubs me the wrong way. if I was writing the essay then I could probably find a way to put it into words but for now you are going to just have to figure it out yourself

if not that, then maybe a study into fandom's obsession with gay men, and how often wanting to see two men fuck is used as an excuse for misogyny. also disclaimer like. obviously I have nothing against gay men. but it's just interesting how fandoms again and again will at best ignore, and at worst, deride female characters, just so they can fantasise about two (often straight!!!!) men kissing. it's weird. why do you hate women so much. ALSO. there is never ever this much energy for lesbian ships (unless it's a lesbian-centric piece of media, such as carmilla, supergirl etc). people who ship lesbian ships are Always the minority, and are often met with "well those two characters are obviously just friends", when if it were two men in that position, everyone would be writing fics about them falling in love. i promise I will not write the essay here

[watermelon-converse]

:sob: cassunzel

I usually have music on anyway lol

23. Do you prefer prompts and challenges, or completely independent ideas?

from my Owl House fic, Mad but Sad Boy:

“Is that … really a thing? Genuinely good people? People who would make Hunter, not mad or sad, but just … okay?

Maybe even … happy?

He notes how happily Amity Blight talked about Luz. How much laughter there was between the Owl Lady and her pet rat. How much … warmth Hunter gets from this tiny little bird.

“Dang it,” Hunter mutters.

The palisman looks at him gently.

“Wanna go watch some Steven Universe?” Hunter sighs, giving in to his heart for once. For once, all he wants is to feel warm with a friend.

His friend peeps in agreement.

It takes a village to raise a child, it takes a town to save one.

it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a town to save one. by Useronhiatus

Only about 20% of society is quirkless, or at least that's what they teach you. If you believe this then you have surely not visited any of the Towns, and you have never noticed the many read shoes that walk amongst the regular.

Midoriya notices these things, but that's only because he himself was quirkless. But he also knows that if his class were to find out about the Towns, then all hell would break loose, surely, so he has to keep it secret, has to stay quiet about it.

Past Convictions

Past Convictions

by h0nkycat

"It hasn't been normal," he admits. "Not for decades."

"You're quite the sap, angel. We've gone without seeing each other for much longer." That much is true. But this time is different. Aziraphale had never actively missed him this much before. Instead of it being pure happenstance, whether they were both too busy or just in different places, their distance is a result of Aziraphale making it so. And he regretted it nearly the entire time, but never knew how to fix it. So Crowley had to do that, too. The angel continues to sip, unsure of what to say next. The past hour has sent him into somewhat of a tailspin. "If I thought you would've missed me that much, I would've shown up ages ago."

"It was rather good timing," Aziraphale notes.

Fic Writer Review

  @aj-itated Tagged me forever ago but here it is!!

1. How many works do you have on AO3? 40!!

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?    247,675

3. How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?  I’ll say 12 and not count things like Marvel and thor movies as separate. They are: Danny Phantom, MCU, Moon Knight (he’s different), Doctor Who, Supernatural, Ghost Hunt, Mandalorian, Gravity Falls, Merlin, One Piece, Solo Leveling (most of these I only have like a single one shot or tbh)

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos? “You want us to sign the What” “(Not) a mistake” “A different reason” “dream of me” and “beneath different stars” ALL fics I wrote in my other account before I merged them.

5. Which of your fic do you want more attention for?  MY FUCKING GHOST HUNT INVISOBANG FIC I BLED FOR THAT ASSHOLES!! WHY IS THAT GETTING LESS TRACTION THAN HALF THE SHITTY ONE SHOTS I WROTE???!!! It’s called Hunting and Hiding

6. Do you respond to comments, why or why not? I do, but also I am bad at it so sometimes i take a really really long time, IDK what it is but it’s the same thing that makes it hard for me to do @ games like this. It’s just... hard to respond to stuff

7. What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending? I wanted to say “House Wife” but I think it might actually be “Home with no memories” cause that fic was a treat for me specifically <3

8. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you’ve written? I LOVE crossovers!! Craziest I’ve Ever written is def “Awake in Time” where Dean’s car accidentally gains sentience because of accidental repeat interactions with the Doctor’s Tardis

9. Have you ever received hate on a fic? I can’t think of any, BUT There was someone who made a whole tumblr callout post for Dark Ages (A ship I more or less started) and that was fun

10. Do you write smut? if so what kind?  I don’t. I tend to delve in a different direction flat out sex is unappealing to me in my own writing cause I don’t really care to explore it, I tend to just kinda hand wave it.

11. Have you ever had a fic translated? Not that I’m aware of

12. Have you ever co-written a fic before? No, But I wrote fic based off another persons OC once? I also did Invisobang with @clueless-one but they did Art for it so not really a co-write

13. What’s your all time favorite ship? Uhhhhh that changes depending on the day but since I built Dark Ages from the ground up and the ship is Basically my child? They’re my fav

14. What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will? ... I will finish them. I will. I have to tell myself that... but I have an unposted wip that retells Spn as a roll swap between the brothers and Cas and Gabriel except they’re also genderswapped that I only ever wrote like one chapter for and prob wont ever acctually do anything with

15. What are your writing strengths? I like to think I’m good at keeping character consistent. <3

16. What are your writing weaknesses? ... pacing. It’s def pacing.

17. What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic? I think, unless it’s small obvious terms of endearment or things that are common in the fandom specifically, it’s always best to just write the dialogue and then describe it as being spoken in a different language. Or if the POV char doesn’t understand it, say that. Like: He spoke a random language, probably russian but hell if ___ could tell. Or: Then she started speaking rapid-fire spanish, and despite ____’s high school lesson’s she was really only able to pick out a word or two and not much else.

18. What was the first fandom you wrote for?  Supernatural

19. What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?  Time Just Out of Reach

20. What fic are you most proud of?  My OC centric fic “Curiosity Killed the Kat” because it was the first multi-chapter story I ever did, AND I FINISHED IT

Tagging: (sorry if you already got tagged)

I GOT SO MUCH TO SAYYY!! gosh pls dont find me weird okay, and these are just my personal opinions and im not hating any groups!! but my unpopular opinion is: i think kpop has become very toxic after bts and bp got famous in America. And tbh if you ask me, i wouldnt want any other kpop groups to be famous in America... i only stan exo but i think i speak for all groups when i say they are safe as they are now... of course if exo ever get even more famous i will be happy and proud for their success. But look how fame and America has changed bts and bp... not tryna hate but look theyve changed, idk if anyone else noticed but after fame hits bts, i realised how theyve start to become very...white?? like they are so westernised and like example, they start focusing on America only, they even curse (not a lot but i’d still point out) casually like for example, jungkook singing a curse word in his cover song for jason derulo savage love i think (speaking of cursing, after nct127 got famous in usa mark started getting influenced by them too and he casually cursed like “oh fuck” and everyones like 😃😆) even i curse and im not saying cursing is BADD but yeah i am, and how they sing a whole song in english, not to even mention how toxic america is but in grammys they have sold tons of albums yet they didnt win anything but when they release an english song, they won.

Some half of them americans are very toxic, racist, and just theyre basically acid, like bruh, its evident that once bts got famous there are soooo much hate thrown towards bts too cuz theyre asians, or how some would say theyre gay or look like girls...if my favs (exo) ever get these kinds of treatments (not that they dint but veryy little cuz thank god they ain exposed to the western culture) i will B R E A K, i could never handle that so i would never want that to happen to them. Also noticed how, after bts got famous, most armys are equally as toxic, whether they are just stanning bts just cuz theyre famous there, or like how their fans dont even know anything abt bts and coming after so many groups and their fans. Most of them are fake and i think its cuz of the fame for bts lmao. One thing i’d like to say too tho, is how they are so overrated and their songs are played all the damn time, people would randomly talk abt them, like everywhere you go THEY ARE JUST THERE, like in my opinion if i am an army, i would just feel like they are so common and theres nothing special about them anymore and theres no excitement, like what even is the point anymore. idk if anyone gets me but thats just how i feel about my favs being “wOrLdWiDe fAmOuS”, i will love them and their music but its just something i think about tbh🤷🏻‍♀️ like let me listen to them on my own and vibe and love them, dont play it 24/7 just cuz they are famous and ure tryna get people’s attention, like imagine ure in the subway and u hear ur favs song cuz its EVERYWHERE and ure there like 😐😐 not that u dont love their music but its cuz horrible people dont deserves to listen to their songs, and like people arent going to appreciate them anyway so yeah i feel uncomfortable listening to my favs as others dont even bother, like imagine if that subway is filled with people who are in ur fandom, yall would just hv the best time in the world and VIBE, if not what even is the point. Idk if im explaining it properly, but its badically like, u feeling UNCOMFORTABLE or should i even say SELFISH cuz u do not want to be sharing ur favs with people who dont even deserve to KNOW about them. Basically like seeing how someone you HATE or bullied you back then talking and being all friendly fake with ur BESTEST FRIEND or even boyfriend/girlfriend, cuz u just want to protect them from EVIL (im so dramatic)

And well lastly, no Bts did not paved the way, or “bts is the best and only group” like no, so many amazing artists were breaking records way before bts was even a thing (no hate to bts) but they really need to get slap for having that mindset, they really make a bad image for bts...tbh kpop before was so peaceful (a little toxic but still, compared to now...BYE) and everything was just about idols and fans love, listening and supporting and loving their music and just so comforting... urgh anyway thats all i wanna say and here are some texts i saved relating to kpop groups going famous worldwide uwu

these are also examples, and honestly speaking here, i dont want to be specific as in “exo” cuz i think this happens for ALL the groups out there and the love and relationship between the idols and their fans (family) are just beautiful, but for bts and armys... tbh i feel bad because i just dont see or feel any love they hv for each other (sure we see bts saying i love you armys or armys supporting bts but with all the toxicity in their way, theres just no spark or chemistry or bond no more it’s basically like one direction and their fans and thats all they are, celebrity-fan, but for kpop its family), i can see other groups and their fans interacting or how idols would light up talking abt their fans, but for bts, theres just soooo much mess going on in their fandom its not special anymore, they lost the deep meaning of their group love and IDK HOW TO EXPLAIN IT but YEAH DJSHSKSJ OH and to add somethign else, they got famous in America, look at all the collabs🤡🤡 blackpink with cardi b, bts with nicki etc... not that collabs arent fun... im just saying these american artists... they dont exactly have a good reputation (americans singing about sex (not the good kind), money, girls and drugs) 🥴🥴 dont influenced my faves and let them be exposed to the toxic culture YALL GET ME?? KPOP HAS THE LETTER K FOR A REASON😭😭😭 let them be their own shining star, not everything has to be involved or a part of aMeRiCa to be amazing.... PHEW IVE SAID IT NOW BEFORE ANYONE GETS MAD AT ME, I DONT MEAN TO SOUND RUDE TO YOU, if youre an american and youre no where near being toxic, I LOVE YOU but im just saying, the western culture is toxic and im just saying what ive been observing and noticing🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️ ps: i still love exo till the max and everything about them is perfect and theyre just amazing people (everything i said that bts and armys dont really have anymore, i think thankfully, EXO (sorry im biased) most fandoms still have so much of the L O V E there and i find that extraordinary) and he fandom is so comforting and amazing and idk dkdjjdjss thats why i dont want them getting famous worldwide...sorry exols ANYWAY THATS ALL FOR MY RANT ITS 4AM AND I AM THINKING OF DELETING THIS💀💀💀 anywya sorry for taking up so much space but i just wanna say I FREKAING LOVE NO EXIT, NO LIMITS, basically all ur exo fics cuz why not🥺🥺 i think ur writing skills are amazing as well as the plots and all especially forsaken, and THANK YOU for two bbhxoc fics😭😭😭 i cant!!! also if u reached here idk i-🥲 i hope u didnt get mad or offended 👀

Reply under the cut!!

Kpop has become extremely toxic with the growth of international fans and the rise of 3rd/4th gen. I wasn't around to experience the previous generations, but I know damn well they weren't a mess like these newer ones are.

Gaining fame in America does seem to change idols, and idk why. The group members change and the music changes also. While I do enjoy hearing idols swear (guilty pleasure) and I am an American so I get to enjoy their English songs, I can see how it makes all the other cultures/countries feel some type of way.

I will say this, though, the Grammys are shit and I dont get why people care so much about them. They've proven time and time again the awards don't go to the best artists. However, this doesn't mean that I think BTS deserved a Grammy imo.

Americans are a very toxic and hate filled bunch (again, I am one, so I get to see this shit every day). I 100% know that some of the hate directed towards Asians is because of racism (as seen by the insane uptick in crime against Asian Americans right now) and because some see kpop male idols as too feminine.

BTS is literally everywhere, which is one of the reasons I stopped listening to them tbh. They'd be in commercials, on talk shows, late night shows, in magazines, on the radio, just everywhere. It took the joy out of watching anything from them just because they were always in my face, so I can see what you mean.

I feel like the relationship between BTS and army has changed (from an outsiders perspective). Its no longer about loving and supporting your group and being happy for them. Now, its "so-so wants this? We MUST do everything in our power and spam every possible thing ever so they get what they want". Its almost frightening. They also no longer care about the quality of the music being put out. Doesn't matter what it is, they stream the ever loving shit out of it and make it break records when, honestly, it doesn't deserve to (again imo).

Lastly, I didnt get mad or offended haha. I understand a lot of these viewpoints, and thank you so much for liking my work!! I do wonder what would happen if I made a true BBH centric fic and not just spin offs or continuations of previous works where oc ends up with BBH 🤔🤔 I think that fic would have too much power haha.

18 Do any of your stories have alternative versions? (plotlines that you abandoned, AUs of your own work, different characterisations?) Tell us about them.

ok so my brain just went “error: too many data entries” and refused to return any of them.

the best documented on this blog is probably homestuck: battlefield terra.  there’s a couple of “what if dave and dirk were the ones finding karkat” floating around. there’s a “what if davesprite also existed”. there’s a “what if john was the war prisoner amongst aliens”. there’s... yeah.

THEN there’s my jaeger x townie otp for girl genius where i wrote an oc-centric fic, did a meme chatting about what IF he was related to main character of the actual canon and @adiduck was like OH HEY and wrote idk like 100k of it, then i wrote some for that ‘verse too, then i was like “hey what if a daemon AU of that verse” and also started a role-reversal AU that i should prolly finish at some point cuz it was fun AND an ofic based on a modern AU version of Adi’s version of my oc-centric fanfic, and allllll through that i went every two weeks to adi like “hey i had another what-if idea about the ‘verse” and word-vomited at her for thirty minutes about it. it went from “they meet when sorin is a kid and it’s cute” to “every member of sorin’s family dies and he goes ‘hey what if i broke the world because i can’t cope’ in return.”

it was, uh, intense.

oh and also whenever i do a daemon AU of one of my own fics i guess, i don’t like it when it’s just canon with added soul pet so i try to use these as commentary on the main fic and make things diverge to showcase some underpinnings. :X

so anyway if you’re asking about anything more recent, please narrow it down to one fandom at least XD;;;;

i don’t tend to change characterizations too much that i notice, usually i’ll let the characters be impacted by their surroundings but i don’t really have, idk, yandere!character and secretly sweet!same character, incompatible headcanons. i kinda just layer them on and say it’s depth or something. XD
