#look ma i got an ask

[wily-one24]

I am intrigued by your liking Casey more. So character break down for her to, if you want.

Okay, but like... I did SAY I understood it was unpopular opinion. I know everyone loves Alex. And I like her too.

I can't explain why, I just... I really liked Casey. More so than Alex.

Why do I like salty chips more than sweet chocolate?

I'm just made that way, I guess. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

CASEY NOVAK:

--> How I feel about this character:

Casey was just fun. Like, c'mon, she was balls to the wall insane. From the get go. She had life, she had fire, she didn't give a shit, she played baseball with Elliot and joked with them all, she wanted to get a judge disbarred/arrested, she went to a judge's private home during his poker game and threatened to stay there all night untess he signed her warrant, she took on the entire US army, she got violently assaulted and came back to work the next day expecting to remain on the case and was OFFENDED when they took her off.

Think about all the shit Olivia saw/did/put up with when it came to Elliot, and then look up at that gif, THAT is where Olivia is all "Girl, you're pushing it". When OLIVIA BENSON is holding you back from getting justice, you know you've obliterated a line or two.

But she was also vulnerable and emotional. She cried over little girls in coolers and questioned whether she could remain in SVU, she mourned the boy who committed suicide, she pled out the daughter of the drunken mother because it made Olivia sad. She was scared when she woke up in the hospital. She felt regret over her ex-boyfriend with a mental illness because she had to prioritise herself and he lost control.

She was human.

In a way that, unfortunately, Alex was not able to be, because Alex was created in the year 2000 when police procedural women had to be "professional" and less "emotional". Alex had a very strong hold on her emotions (though they came out on occasion).

Casey? Casey had a hold on ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. And I enjoyed it.

--> All the people I ship romantically with this character:

I don't really ship Casey with anyone. She's a friend. I'd go out drinking with her. But I'm not gonna think about her sex life that much.

--> My non-romantic OTP for this character:

I'm really sitting on the fence here with this ask. I don't know? Like, she got on really well with Olivia and Elliot...

--> My unpopular opinion about this character:

Apart from the one already mentioned?

Is there really that much to opine about Casey? She did her job well (a litte/lot crazy, but she did it). She got results. She had really good chemistry with the entire team.

Perhaps my unpopular opinion is that I would have liked her to either stay or return. Which is a difficult ask, because I also loved Barba.

--> One thing I wish would happen/had happened with this character:

I would love to see Casey return.

If they could ever make up their minds if she was disbarred or not. One episode she is, then she returns to say she was only censured, and then the next time she's referred to, she's been disbarred again.

I mean, knowing Casey, it's also possible she was disbarred for a completely different reason that happened later.

i didn't know you were a joker out fan??

Wouldn't say I'm a full on fan but I absolutely love listening to their songs!

For some reason I am so amused at the idea of Clark going to Ma and Pa Kent to tell them he's getting engaged/married to Lois and them both kind of just standing there awkwardly trying to figure out a Midwestern-nice way to kindly, but firmly, ask Clark what the fuck is going on with that Batman fellow, then--

[moltensmusings]

I was skimming some Alvarez arc episodes to get references on a Levy outfit. The highs and lows of fairy tail.

Alvarez arc really was my final straw with Gru/via back in 2017 my dudes.

10 Questions for Fic Writers

Thanks for the tag, @ilaytrapsfortroubadours ! Now I get to indict myself as Officially Older Than The Internet.

1. How many works do you have on AO3? Looks like 154, though a few of those are collections of oneshots that I posted not realizing they'd be better as a series.

2. What's your total AO3 word count? 1,783,015. And I think my ff.net word count was 3M+ when I deleted everything, so. Yikes.

Rest under the cut for length.

3. What fandoms do you write for? Loki, Star Trek TOS, and Star Trek AOS, at the moment. I've dabbled in a few others (see my pinned post), but have no active plans to return to any except the ACD Sherlock Holmes fandom in the near future.

4. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? I do my best, though I don't always have the spoons to do so right away. It's become a rare privilege these days, receiving comments, and I'm particularly grateful for every one that I get.

5. Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not that I know of, and I'd like to remain in ignorance if I have.

6. Have you ever co-written a fic before? I have! Collabs were critical to my development as a baby fic writer. I haven't done one in...15 years, at least? But they were wonderful experiences with far better writers than I, at the time, and were very important to developing my writing skills.

7. What's your all-time favourite ship? Ah, I'm a semi-agnostic shipper at best, but I think I have to go with the OGs and say Spirk.

8. What are your writing strengths? Canon-accurate dialogue, non-sexual intimacy, and humor, I like to think. I have also gotten worlds better in recent years at ruthlessly editing myself. (Yes, I know it probably doesn't show in my epic-length stories, but I do in fact kill many, many darlings.)

9. What are your writing weaknesses? Plotting has always been my biggest weakness, but also emotional introspection. And sensory description. Sensory description is to writing what small talk is to dating, for me. I want to just skip to what I consider meaningful stuff.

10. First fandom you wrote for? ACD Sherlock Holmes, back in I think 2006, thereabouts?

No pressure tagging a couple people, sorry if you're double-tagged - @elodiah, @lokimobius, @andthekitchensinkao3, @loki-is-my-kink-awakening, @justabigoldnerd and anyone else who sees this!

For the wip game: progress

Apparently, there is no progress in my WIPs.

(well, if that ain't a metaphor, I don't know what is).

Consolation, a paragraph that could be taken as progress:

****

He's made mistakes before. In fact, his entire existence seems to be a series of mistakes collated together to form his life. But thinking about this new knowledge he has, he is beginning to realise that coming back the way he has is definitely one of them.

Not coming back at all, because he can't regret that.

But the way he's acted since.

****

[shippingcannons]

random but from a distance your pfp looks like the Australian indigenous flag lol

cute cat though!!!!

I had to look it up but oh my you're correct.

Thanks, it's a cat on a car and it's neither my cat nor my car

[todayisafridaynight]

Was driving all day and reading the anons/answers as we stopped. Genuinely enjoying your takes and also anon's! Love the phrase yaoipilled I can't 😂 it's a very good word for the phenomenae, as it appears in many places, y'know?

yaoi is detrimental to the brain it HAS to be consumed responsibly lest i have to see someone try to assert k|ryu cares more about maj|ma than haruka or daigo again

[hurricanek8art]

If you have trouble connecting with the baddies in swtor, I'd recommend trying the Bounty Hunter and Sith Warrior. BH can be honorable and Light Side SW has some hilarious dialog options. Anyway, happy gaming!

Oh, I have a character for each class and they're all light side, my brain can think "huh, this could be a plot hook" and then I lose complete control until I have at least a barebones idea. 🤣 I'm playing my Hunter as a Mandalorian exile fighting her way back into the clans after the Crusader's Schism, so I've noticed the 'honorable' options, but I haven't encountered too many dialogue options that have connected me to SW story just yet. I am just on Korriban, though. Some stuff has come up around the house that has kept me from getting a chance to play SWTOR, but I'll try to give SW another go once I've gotten my Knight all caught up on class story. Thank you for the advice!

[loveanddeepdick]

ᯓ★ babydaddy!toji would never admit that he got jealous when you were around guys your age. he’d never get insecure, no, but he felt a deep pang of jealously in his chest. like he prayed that he had been born later so he could be more similar to you. your relationship with him was complicated. you were dating on and off but finally just settled as friends with benefits (who took care of a ridiculously cute baby together).

your parents often asked you why you dated a guy who was less than a decade away from being your father. your friends did the same too, not seeing the appeal in being with a “broke old man”. you never understood why toji just scoffed and looked away. it was out of character since he’d usually just cuss people out.

babydaddy!toji who let his jealousy show a little too much when you ran into an old high school friend of yours while you were out shopping. toji had to piss and you were waiting outside when he came up to you. shit, you didn’t even recognize him at first and the conversation was merely small talk but when toji came out, he had his arm around your waist, his hands coming down a little too low.

“this is your uh.. boyfriend, yeah?”, you friend asked, his eyes immediately going to the hand on your waist. most people just assumed you were single again.

“you could say that..”, you sheepishly replied, trying to swat toji’s hand away.

“tsk why’re you acting like i didn’t just dick you down and you didn’t carry my baby, ma? course you’re mine”, toji scoffed, looking away.

your eyes dart from your friend’s to his and it finally clicked. he was jealous. with a small smile, you excused yourself and tugged on the hem of toji’s shirt, signaling him to walk out to his car. the walk there was filled with short protests from him and silence from you. of course, he didn’t mean it, he loved this kind of attention from you. as you got to his car you rummaged through his pants pocket to grab his keys—not being shy to graze his dick—and unlocked the car.

babydaddy!toji who’d never admit he was jealous, even when you two were making out in the middle of a mall parking lot with your hand on his crotch.

“admit it, you still—ah, you still love me and you were jealous”

“course i fuckin love you—fuck yeah,keep your hand there—we’re long over, ma. didn’t you say we were just friends with benefits?”

“you’re avoiding the question, toji”

he had his hands all over you at this point, tugging at your shirt but you pulled away and furrowed your eyebrows.

“admit that you were jealous, old perv”

“fuck—fine. i was jealous. i hate seeing you with men younger than me. makes me feel old. happy now, doll?”, he leaned in again, grabbing your face as you kissed back with a smirk.

“yeah, i’m elated”, you grinned, trailing your hand up to play with his dark happy trail and dipping it in his sweatpants.

“don’t be a fuckin brat, ma. m’gonna give you a second snotty little shit if you keep this up”, toji growled, trailing open-mouthed kisses down your neck and onto your collarbone

“yeah?“, you smirked, tangling your fingers in his hair as you guided him down, “keep that promise and maybe we’ll get married”

babydaddy!toji who was definitely going to take you in the backseat for hours. fuck driving home.

babydaddy!toji who nearly died at the spot from the news of you being pregnant not with just one baby, but twins. you ended the year with a ring and a freshly painted nursery.
