I've got palpable brainworms, so here's some fanart from the opening scene of Equilateral by @lorelilly. Highly recommended read <3

[lilac-hecox]

I saw the AO3 wrapped ask game thing! Sounds super cool! How about #2: First fic you clicked on this year?

It was Dreaming of You by @glass-windows which is an Ian/Amanda fic!

💜💜💜

Just answering some general questions about my writing. 😁

I was tagged by @lilac-hecox ! (But I’m only answering some of the questions bc my answer to a lot of them would just be “no” cause I’m boring. Lol)

Tagging @whiskeythefishski @june-rassicpark @spennininomenon @vc55bughead @toomuchsmoshbrainrot if any of y’all wanna yap about your stuff!

Total number of ao3 works: 15 + 1 in progress

Total ao3 word count: 183,963

Fandoms I’ve written for: I’ve only posted Smosh fics. But I did once write a couple fics for Fire Emblem Three Houses.

Top five fics by kudos:

In Reverse

Livewire

Little Love

No Rocks, Only Chaser

Equilateral

Do I respond to comments? Yes! When I first started writing, I didn’t really understand the “rules” so I didn’t respond to every comment because I had weird anxiety about looking like I was “artificially inflating” my comment count. But these days I respond to every new comment thread!

What has the most angst ridden ending? I really think my only angsty ending fic is Lucky.

What has the happiest ending? I almost exclusively write happy endings. Lol. But my favorite happy endings are probably in Equilateral and No Rocks.

Have I received hate? Luckily no. Everyone’s been very kind!

Do I write smut? If so, what kind? For sure! Love me some smut. But usually my smut is paired with a lot of emotion or character development. I don’t write much pwp.

Writing strengths: …wow this is harder than it should be. Is making people cry a strength? lol. I don’t know if this is something other people think about my stuff, but I really like my dialogue. I know I don’t write tons of it, but it’s my favorite part of my stories to reread. I also got a comment once that said I’m good at “linear movement” which is something I’ve actually been actively working to improve. The more emotional or important a moment is, the more breakdown I try to do. And I think it’s just extra fun for me when writing romance in particular to live in that tension as much as possible.

Writing weaknesses: I’m so bad at planning out plot. I tend to be mostly a “find a starting place and then just write based on vibes” kind of person. Which means with longer fics, I’m constantly unsure of how to add foreshadowing or when to gradually introduce character traits/backstory or how long it’ll take to resolve a story issue. I’ll write full scenes and then have to go back and ask “Is this scene too long? Too short? Should it exist here or later in the story? Does it even serve the narrative?” Also I don’t think that I’m particularly unique with my story ideas. At this point I’ve mostly written getting together fics that I think feel very tonally similar. And when it comes to writing structure, I have an extremely loose definition of what a “sentence” is. And I can’t spell. Like y’all have no idea. Thank god for spellcheck is all I can say. lol.

Favorite fic I’ve written: There’s a lot about my fic No Rocks, Only Chaser that I’m proud of. But I also recently wrote a one shot called Missing Pages that just felt amazing to write. I really felt like I hit a flow state with it. And even though it’s a rare pair so it hasn’t gotten many hits compared to my other stuff, I’m still really proud of it. 😁

Tag Game & Updated Fic Recs

Not going to answer all of these questions cause I don't have a huge back catalog of stuff, but this looks fun :) Also a while ago I did a list of some of my favorite fics and I'm taking the chance to shout out a few more!!!

Tag Game!

I was tagged by @lilac-hecox and @lorelilly (love you both!!!)

total number of ao3 works: 7! I've only been back in the fic game since last July and my posting schedule is NOT regular

total ao3 word count: 57,164

fandoms i’ve written for: Nowadays it's pretty much just Smosh, but in my sordid past I wrote for Minecraft YouTube, Homestuck, and Supernatural (please forgive me)

top five fics by kudos: Only doing top three since I don't have many:

And I Can Survive It (For Only So Long): An Ianthony exes-to-lovers. They're theater professors forced to work together on the spring musical, 'Nerdy Prudes Must Die.' (additional pairings: amangela, trevrasha, spommy, shourtney, dackie)

(make for me) A Soft Universe: Spommy sickfic oneshot in the universe of 'And I Can Survive It'

Kiss Me Like You Mean It: Trevrasha oneshot in the universe of 'And I Can Survive It'

do i respond to comments?: I try to! I'm not the best at responding, but I DO read them all and smile :)

what has the happiest ending?: A HARD DECISION. I think I have to go with hold on to the memories (I will hold onto you), the Shourtney soulmates oneshot I wrote for @lilac-hecox's Holiday Gift Exchange :) really proud of that one!

have i received hate?: thankfully no

do i write smut? if so, what kind?: Not yet. I'm gearing up to it, but it will likely be rarer.

do i write crossovers?: The closest thing to a crossover I have is 'And I Can Survive It,' where the Smosh cast is putting on StarKid's Nerdy Prudes Must Die. the StarKids do make occasional cameo appearances!

a WIP i’ll never finish?: The Minecraft fanfic I started writing when I was 12. Spilled a Snapple peach tea all over the notebook I wrote outlines in and totally ruined it. Gone but never forgotten.

writing strengths: I've been told that my character voices are well done, and I think I'm pretty good at scene-setting!

writing weaknesses: Fuck, what isn't? Writing regularly, for one. but also, TITLES. I cannot come up with titles for shit. That's why all my fics have shitty song lyric titles lol.

first fandom i wrote for: Minecraft YouTube :/ Or Narnia, if you want to get REAL technical (I think I was five lol)

favorite fic i’ve written: Fuuuuuuuuuuck. I think I'm the PROUDEST of 'hold on to the memories,' since it was really out of my comfort zone and also far longer than I expected, and I got to gift it to someone, which made me really happy. But 'And I Can Survive It' is probably my favorite.

tagging: Some of the lovelies from the Smosh discord!! I know some of y'all have been tagged already but I just love your stuff :) @sheisaquarius-blog @soupy-girl @toomuchsmoshbrainrot @spennininomenon @june-rassicpark

Live blogging huh?

[yourfatherjustinmcelroy]

As promised I’ve illustrated yet another scene from @lorelilly ‘s new shourtcer fic akdhskfskdhsk (two colour versions because I couldn’t decide if I wanted more realistic or more symbolic)

This is essentially all just my plea for the continuation of the love and other smosh games series on account of I am a starving man

Anyway shoutout to my continued struggle to depict real people in my art style

[whiskeythefishski]

Still working on minor edits/formatting. But the final chapter of my Spommy fic, No Rocks, Only Chaser, will be dropping sometime in the next few days.

[smoshmybones]

i really need people to write more spommy fanfiction cuz lowkey im feeling like a desperate ex rn like re-reading all my fav spommy fluff...

also here are the links to all my faves 😋

no rocks, only chaser

by: @lorelilly

(my personal favorite)

https://archiveofourown.org/works/59935216/chapters/152904499

*rating: E but it is mostly just fluff, and its also amazing so if u dont want to read smut its very easy to skip and i HIGHLY suggest reading it

warnings: light SA mentions in all chapters, heavier SA mentions in chapters 1 and 4(?), i personally didnt have any issues but everyone is different, so read at your own expense

in reverse

by: lorelilly

(my other personal favorite)

https://archiveofourown.org/works/58477036

*rating: T, it has like some *mentions* of sex but nothing actually happens

warnings: tommy smokes weed but dont we all...

dude can you like, direct my kissing skills?

by: @spagnew

https://archiveofourown.org/works/56608246

*rating: M, im not exactly sure like why tho, cuz theres no smut, or drugs, or mentions of sex like at ALL? but they do make out so 🤷

warnings: its so sweet its sickening (but in all seriousness, no warnings, nothing bad here)

ps: i really wish author wasnt anon cuz their writing is PHENOMENAL

pps: I FOUND THEM

we're modern idiots

by: @jovenshires

(my other other personal favorite)

https://archiveofourown.org/works/55361437

*rating: T, strictly fluff really

warnings: other than the fact that it will probably (definitely) make you cry, nothing bad here

it's social suicide!

by: miss_soupy

https://archiveofourown.org/works/52706182

*rating: M, it's about sex, it mentions sex, the whole point IS sex, but nothing actually happens on screen

warnings: its timed between highschool graduation and college, so they are adults, but if youre weird about like aged down AU's then i dont reccomend this

if we keep score

by: jovenshires

(my other other other personal favorite) ((can u tell who my favorite writers are?))

https://archiveofourown.org/works/52625158

*rating: M, implied off screen sex at the VERY end, but the rest of it is just like, not even fluff its like enemies to lovers so..

warnings: large scene where alex tran gets bullied/scene focused around school bullying, this one personally got to me a little so definitely be prepared..

this whole fic also takes place at a bunch of catholic schools so be cautious if you're weird with religion + implied homophobia

theres also a lot of underaged drinking

thats it but like let me know if u guys want anymore smosh fic reccomendations cuz i have a lot...

Everywhere I Go (Leads Me to You) - Spommy

All's Well That Ends Well (To End Up With You) - ianthony

Timeless - ianthony

Pierced Through the Heart (But Never Killed) - ianthony

Crash Course - ianthony

do i respond to comments?: Yeah!

what has the most angst ridden ending?: I think Cannon in the Distance which is my Hunger Games AU

what has the happiest ending?: I'm going to pick All's Well That Ends Well (To End Up With You) because it is naturally a very optimistic time period set around Shayne and Courtney's wedding reception!

have i received hate?: when smoshtwt came at me for writing damangela smut

do i write smut? if so, what kind?: Yes, as I frequently do kinktober or just write a lot of smut in general. So, I'm pretty open to any kind!

do i write crossovers?: Ahh?? Sorta?? I mean, I might include other Youtubers into a fic.

have i ever had a fic stolen?: I don't think so (And I hope it never happens)

have i ever had a fic translated?: I don't think so!

have i ever co-written a fic?: Kinda? Mainly an RP that is getting cleaned and posted.

a WIP i’ll never finish?: I want to never say never on finishing something but the sheer amount of ideas versus what I can get done might over power me.

writing strengths: Characterization, I think! I also try and write quickly.

writing weaknesses: I think maybe descriptions of outside areas and inside areas, I feel like maybe action fight scenes?

do i like foreign language dialogue?: Uhhh, I mean if it's correct and natural?

first fandom i wrote for: The first thing I ever published was a Fullmetal Alchemist fic. I did write a Dragonball Z fic that never got published thank god.

favorite fic i’ve written: Man, that is hard. I love all my fics! But I have a special place for The Palomino Room and Love on the Ice and Wishing You the Best in the Worst Way  and Wrap Your Roots Around My Bones
