Y'all you have no idea how happy I am as one of the OG MattBen fangirlies to see the love they're getting on my FYP.

I've been on this ship since Dogma, welcome aboard.

HII !! 2, 12, 25, & 69 <3

2. Where do you get your fic ideas?

usually they come from wanting to explore something i feel hasn’t been explored enough or the way i wanted it too (I’m not really an AU person as a writer so it’s usually a continuation or character study situation). also I’m like an atmosphere/vibes based person so I’m inspired by interesting and lively settings! but coming up with ideas aside I’ll usually pursue them based on what seems easy and contained and requires the least research because i’m incredibly lazy lol

12. Do you outline your fics? If yes, how detailed are your outlines? How far do you stray from them?

technically I have a rough structure with one line telling me what each scene is about but I don’t have detailed outlines. the only exact thing I’ll have in the outline is the dialogue - otherwise I get bored or intimidated easily. I prefer being more freedom in the flow so I feel less bad if I get tired of a scene 

25.  What’s your favorite part of the writing process (worldbuilding, brainstorming/outlining, writing, editing, etc)?

my favourite part is daydreaming about little scenarios in my head and dialogue (which comes really easily). I basically hate everything else about writing LOL……but I do love editing! in fact I have to stop re-editing scenes like 100 times after writing them to procrastinate writing the rest 

69. What are your favorite fics at the moment?

I’m soooo behind on reading fic because life has gotten crazy. I know it’s bad when I don’t have time for ao3 :(

but recent faves have been angel lust by leoandsnake (kenstewy succession post s4 fic), this random short theo/nell haunting of hill house fic that I can’t stop thinking about, anything by stereobone (for masters of the air) and this mattben fic (hehe). in terms of beatlesfic my recent obsessions are you and I have memories by @midchelle, knocking at your door by @eveepe and ways to love you by @zilabee - but I have so much to catch up on!!!

ok i’m going to be honest with you all i started looking into mattben rpf last year because i was going nuts and i needed a funny distraction and there is someone in their ao3 tag who has a phd in creative writing and they have written some of the most beautiful and touching fic i’ve ever read …. and it’s matt damon and ben affleck rpf. you just gotta respect that

"Which could mean nothing" fans and "kenstewy" fans in the detectives room with a spool of red yarn and a ridiculous amounts of recipes finding every parallel between kenstewy and mattben after ben makes one throw away comment, matpat would be so proud of us guys.

matt damon: dude did u see the succession finale? tragic ending for kendall :(

in a room full of once in a lifetime oscar fuck ups I'd still stare at u or whatever they say.......

Hello mattben elder I am so curious to know how the mattben community has evolved and changed over time, esp with how the internet and celeb culture have both evolved…….are there any other original mattbens who are still mattbenning?

I’m sure there are plenty of OGs around, but I haven’t run into any of them in the spaces where I’ve seen it flourish lately. A lot of it started around the GWH days when I was still too young, but I got into it in high school (around 2003) when I saw Dogma for the first time and thought “Oh these two definitely have something going on.” There used to be big fanfic archives scattered around the internet that people would recommend on places like LiveJournal before AO3 came around as a compendium for all things fandom. Sadly, I think even if I dug up the bookmarks on old desktops they’d be dead links now.
