3. What’s your favorite fic that you’ve written?

9. Do you write every day? If you wrote today, share a sentence of what you’ve written!

22. Do you know how your fic will end before you start writing?

🥰 Have fun!

Thank you so much for the ask!! :D (post, for the curious)

Favorite Fic I've Written

This feels a little like asking for my favorite child :D. Okay, a lot. For long stories, I think Matchr and that universe of tales. For short stories, definitely A Winter's Tale. And the entire Happily Ever After multiverse just lives in my heart.

I see a pattern here. :D

(And, yes, each of those stories includes my real #1 theme of second chances at love, but who's counting?)

Do I Write Everyday

Yes! I write at least something everyday. I don't always hit my 1K word goal, and often go over, but I get something out. Here's a sentence I wrote yesterday for Five-by-Five:

“So how long have you two been together?”

Do I Know How My Stories Will End Before I Begin?

Almost always, in fact I usually write the ending first. The biggest exception is Dee. Up until the final edit the day before I posted it, it was going to end very differently. Overruled shifted mid-way through, as well, but we got to the final scene in the end. I blame Remus for each :D.

"Lonely"

Self indulgent post. Its kinda based off of how I grew up

Wanderer x fem!reader, comfort, fluff, can be read as platonic or romantic, not proofread

♡♡♡♡

"Lonely"

If you were to describe your life from the day you could walk and talk to now, the one word would be "lonely"

Dont get me wrong, you had friends growing up. Maybe a lot, maybe only a few, and even then, it still feels like you againts the world.

No matter who you hang out with, the connection between you and your friend was never strong.

You knew, but brushed it off. Because at least having someone to talk to about something, anything is better than being alone.

But you were still "lonely", no matter how many people you surround yourself with.

You get attached easily, to anyone no matter who.

Toxic, boring, stupid, it doesnt matter

As long as they give you just a bit of attention, you'll suddenly cling onto them like theyre youre everything.

And yet

You were still "lonely"

Its frustrating. Why does the world want you to be lonely? Why should you feel this way in the first place? What could you have possibly done to anger the gods? Or was this their way of entertainment?

You'd blame all the hurt you've been through to anyone who isnt you. Especially celestia itself. Because if you blamed it on yourself, the more you'd feel worse.

"Lonely" was once your enemy, your foe. But the more you grew older, the more you've become tired with trying to get rid of it whether it be through masking yourself with different made up personalities for every single person you talk to, trying to talk to different people to find the one who matchrs your energy, or blaming the gods of teyvat and all its mortals for making you feel the way you feel, the more you've surrendered and accepted the "lonely" into your life.

Youve given up.

Because what was the point of trying at this point?

You can no longer blame people for your misery and woes.

At the end of the day, you are the problem.

Detaching yourself from the world, half of your life became a blur. You didnt remember if you still took up on the act of imitating everyone elses personalites, or if you completely stopped talking to people in general.

You didnt remember,

But what you did remember was meeting him.

Buying fruits from the bustling stalls of Sumeru, you finally met him.

From the corner of your eye, you saw an interesting figure.

Turning your head to get a better look you studied thr man from afar.

He seemed to be from inazuma judging by his attire. His whole outfit was coloured blue and white, his huge hat sitting on his head in a way which made him look intimidating and mysterious rather than silly, his eyes uninterested and annoyed, as his chesr glowed because of his anemo vision.

You stared at him for a while longer before he dissappeared in a blink of an eye.

You didnt know what you felt. But it was something weird, in a good way of course.

"I wanna see him again" you mumbled.

Months have passed, and from time to time, the strange man from inazuma would pop into your head as you daydream in silence when you were goung out with your friends.

Sometimes you think youre creepy, stupid and yhat you were "doing it again". Mainly insinuating that you'd get attached to someone you barely know and make scenarios of you both being together as a coping mechanism.

One day your friend has decided to invite you to try a cooking class with her. You dont really get invited out that much, so you werent about to pass up on this opportunity.

Both you and your friend arrived and was lead to your perspective stations. The instructor wanted everyone to find someone random around the room to be partners, so everyone can get to know each other and make the place more lively.

Going out of your comfort zone was hard, but thinking youre being a nuisance was harder. So you sighed in defeat.

Everyone finally got a partner but you,

You were standing there awkwardly, getting ready to tell the instructor that you're perfectly fine with being alone. Youve been alone for half of your life, being alone as you were in cooking class with no different.

Before you got the chance to talk, someone barged through the door, making everyone shift their focus on the door.

Your eyes widen when you saw who it was. It was the mysterious Inazuma guy. You were shocked, stunned and frozen in place.

Never once believe that you'd see him again

"Ah youre just in time! This young lady here doesnt have a partner for todays class so you can go right ahead and stand next to her station"

The mysterious men scoffed and walk towards your station standing right beside you without a word.

You were starting to feel nervous as there was no conversation coming up between the both of you. You thought that maybe you were the only one overthinking this because anytime you glance at him he would look unbothered and uninterested just like he did when you first saw him in that market few months back

"You can stop looking at me miss" crossing his arms and looking at you with one eyebrow up.

God he was intimidating and handsome

No no. Just intimidating you correxted yourself

Flinching you quickly apologised and whipped your head back and looked down at the table.

Wanderer knew you saw him on that day in the market, he's very observant what can he say?

"Call me wanderer" he broke the silence, looking down at the ingredients on the table, not listening to the instructor

You looked at him again, blinking

You wanted to question why on earth his name is "wanderer" but got a hunch that he'll be offended and stop talking.

"Nice to meet you wanderer, Im (name)" you responded

"Well (name) let's show everyone here who's the boss at cooking" he smirked a bit, determined to win

You were stunned. This wasnt even a cooking competition you wanted to tell him, but that might ruin the fun

So you smiled a little and nodded. "Right on it!"

Days after days passed, and if youre lucky enough you'd see him on the bustling streets of Sumeru, if you both make eye contact, you'd smile and wave as he nodded then go about your day

Soon that change, from simple hand waves, to small talks, to full blow on conversations to hanging out outside of sumeru city.

His company was nice, it felt warm and comfortable. You didnt have to imitate his energy, and you never tried to. Something about copying his personality just to talk to him felt off.

As much as he didnt wanna admit it, he also felt comfortable with you, not 100% no but if he were to be able to choose to go on walks alone or be with you he wouldnt hesitate to pick one with you.

You finally felt comfortable in your own skin

And suddenly, you didnt feel so "lonely" anymore.

chiral night rhythm carnival song visualizer ranking because now that ive played all the main chiral titles i can fully appreciate them and dislike others

i dont blame dmmds visualizers like idk when they were made in relation to each other but theres a lot of songs to make visualizers for so i understand them being more simple

but also because of 1) how dmmds songs are 2) its scale

dmmd has songs for each character so they cant use cgs from across the game like how togainu does it. togainus songs are for ending TYPES not specific characters meanjng they have access to almost every cg when dmmd has to keep it to one character like you cant use a noiz cg in Tears yknow

sweet pools visualizers are so good because of how small sweet pool is in every way. its cast is small, its a short game, its world is small meaning they can put their effort into portraying characters emotions and the tone of the story more. with dmmd you'd have to portray all the things like scrap, rhyme, platinum jail, the tech etc and thats a lot more and a lot harder

i put curriculumachine higher up even when its only effects are shaky cam and strobe lights because it fits the energy so well

what separates it from just feeling like a cg slideshow is that it matchrs up with the music and keeps the energy which is important for me

other things, ai catch is so low because 70% of it is just the ai catch op vid and the original stuff is bad whereas i put cosmocall field higher because while a good amount of it is the original cosmocall field vid the original stuff feels like thwres more effort put in + overall feels natural

the "funny as shite" tier is because some of the cg transition are really funny

id maybe put holo ghost higher but them running out of cgs is very funny

all of them serve their purpose as visualizer like they arwnt meant to be full music videos, theyre just there to be put on in the background, so they all work but i love seeing the songs i love be presented like this and when they really encapsulate the feelings behind them i think its something to appreciate

Howdy!

Idk if you've read it, but there's an intrulogical fic that follows the writing prompt of "serial killer and murder mystery author fall in love," but contrary to what you'd (probably?) expect, Logan is the serial killer. It's called "Matchr" and it's actually kinda wholesome? It's definitely my favourite intrulogical fic out there, and if you haven't read it (and are interested bc I have no idea if it's your kind of fic) I can send the link (or you could just look up the name yourself idk) :D

OH INTERESTING— i'll try to look it up when i have the time, thank you :D

Reigns vs Zayn: Not Over Yet?

I said many times that I have a Love/Hate relationship with Brock Lesnar. I’ve seen many fantastic matches where he fought Kurt Angle, Eddie Guerrero, John Cena, Triple H and others, but there have been a lot of terrible matches with Lesnar as well. the bad matchres consist of German Suplexes followed by an F5 and sprints to the finish of the match. A lot of high spots that get a quick reaction,…

[fagpeterstrahm]

Honestly I really do think it's so Unbelievably Cool how we each have our own individual emotional support wrestler/s/match/es.

Like for the wrestlers it's just the person/s that always help you when you've had a bad day, or even if you haven't, help to make your good day a great one. Also that along with the rush of adrenaline you get when hearing their theme song, or if you're out in public hearing something that reminds you of it.

And for the match/es it's the ones that always make you cry because you're just so proud of the wrestler you support. If they've lost, you're so proud of how much effort they put in the match, and you can't wait to see them get the gold. And if they won a title, the satisfaction of seeing them finally get what they've wanted, is so unmeasurable.

I just think it's something that's completely unmatched.

Hi! I just read Matchr and I’m. In. Love. The flow was amazing and the plot was perfect. I also really appreciate how well researched the whole thing is! Like the scientific detail and the goddamn Zillow apartment.

Dear Nonnie, thank you!! Matchr took a little piece of my heart with it and I'm so, so happy people are still discovering it and reading it <3 Thank you, thank you, thank you for this note! <3

(Cracks knuckles)

Side by Side in the Mindscape Patton says fuck.

So does Matchr | History Patton. Maybe it’s when he finds his brother’s broken glasses at the scene of a murder.

Social worker Patton says fuck (either before or after he yanks kid!Janus, I’ll have to check.)

And Patton hasn’t said fuck here yet (the word hasn’t been invented yet)

But being the semi-immortal deific husband to Remus, King of the Underworld, guarantees he will…

Ahem

Let Patton say fuck.

That is all.

I suppose that by the end of @intrulogicalweek2021 , there will be at least one.

This biggest bit of this prompt, though, that stuck in my craw was the knowledge that any serial killer worth their salt would be sure to use a VPN or other IP obscuring technology to ensure their searches could never be complied into a cohesive history.

However.

Janus seems like the kind of entrepreneur who would be particularly skilled at identifying loopholes that might legally permit a VPN provider to legally sell their customers' data, which he could then use to feed or pipe in to a matching algorithm.

Interesting...

A dating service where matching is based on people’s search history exists. You’re a serial killer. You go on a date with a writer.

[gothighunicorntolerance]

if nico flores did something completely unexpected what would you do? like if he turned out to be a serial killer or something (yes i know that probably wont happen in cannon but shh)

Not sure what I’d do then, but I do think their interactions would become something like what @edupunkn00b ’s fic, Matchr, is like….

but as for what just happened now? Now I just started thinking of a new au

[edupunkn00b]

6 and 20 for the fic writer ask?

Thank you so much for the ask!! :D (the post, for the curious)

#6 Others' stories I re-read all the time

Oh, there are quite a few. Anything by @nadiestar, but especially Words Are Hard. Same for @candied-peach (I credit their Kissing Book for my Remus Chews Cinnamon Gum campaign.) @typically-untypical's Logan stories, most especially Logan's Letter and They Aren't Coming. @lost-in-thought-20's stories, of course, especially The First Time Two Became Three Again. @treenissanderssidesstuff's Say My Name, @naminethewriter's universe with parental Intrulogical with As Long As You Try Your Best, and @lalijinx and @frejennix's The Other Side of the Mirror are on my hit list, too :D.

You have also probably spotted me in the doc I was doing a little alpha reading for you from time to time, too! :D

#20 Favorite Title for a story I've written

I really The Uses of Adversity (it's plot related and a Shakespeare reference to As You Like it, Logan's favorite play he's seen Roman perform.) I am stupidly proud of the series title for History | Matchr, as well. Matchr is a match-making algorithm that consumes your internet search history and the | symbol is also a 'pipe' in scripting languages which literally means "put the output of 'History' into the 'Matchr' process and give us the output." The story also has some very deep past Dukeceit history, so it has a double meaning.
