#mcrollins fic

[cicinicole-14]

someday —a mcrollins fic

uh hi im new to writing for this fandom, this headcanon of them having two kids (and their specific names) has been bugging me for a while and I finally figured out how to write it. idk if this fandom is still even alive but ive been doing a rewatch of the show with my mom and been all over my mcrollins feels so badly and well this is what happens. anyway, hope you enjoy!

She stares down at their intertwined fingers in a complete trance, lost in thought, in the memories of them.

“Penny for your thoughts, Lieutenant?” His voice startles her a bit.

Their flight to the mainland is long, and she’s not entirely sure what his plan is, but if he’d have her, she’s finally ready to follow him anywhere.

It was time.

Time for her to move on from the agency, time for her to come back home, time to give them another shot if he’d let them.

She swallows the lump back in her throat before telling him truthfully. “Do you ever wonder what our life would be like if you did get to ask me? If I had the chance to say yes?” she ponders, thinking back of the moment out on the airstrip, thinking about the ring she never got the chance to wear and the life she never got to have.

“I'd like to say no but more often than not I find myself lost in moments of us, picturing what it’d be like.”

His answer surprises her a bit, shocked that he did give more than a single thought to their what if or what could have been life.

“Yeah? And what do you picture, Sailor?” She’s intrigued now, to know, to have answers to the clouded haze of a life she wanted to picture with him.

“You and me, at the beach behind the house. Sandcastles. Toys everywhere because our son doesn’t know how to be neat like his parents. Baby monitor on the table because our daughter’s inside napping.”

She could picture it now.

Kids.

A family.

She’s sitting in one of the chairs sipping orange juice from a champagne flute. There’s buckets, shovels, sifters and shells scattered at her feet. She looks up, seeing her two boys splashing in the waves as Eddie wags his tail, swimming right up to the two of them. She watches as Steve takes their boy and throws him up in the air and letting him splash down in the water right in front of him as he breaks out into a fit of laughter.

“Higher Daddy, higher!” he shrieks as Steve heaves him higher into the air.

The laughter fades into cries and she looks to her right, seeing the monitor sitting on the table lighting up as their daughter stands in her crib, babbling away, signaling that she was awake from her nap.

She stands up, catching Steve’s eye and points to the monitor before heading into the house with a promise of being right back as she ascends the stairs quickly and heads into their daughter’s room, quickly getting her ready for the water to meet up with her brother and their father.

She heads back out of the house with the little girl on her hip before wading into the water and meeting Steve and their little boy, splashing gently at his sister, kissing Steve’s lips as she arrives.

A life with him was something she had always wanted, something she’d pictured for so long, but in their line of work seemed so far-fetched and out of the question, but it was something she still yearned for.

“Two kids, huh?”

He nods, rubbing his thumb in circles over her hand. “Closer in age than Mary and I because I regret not being closer to her than I was.”

“It's not too late for that.”

“I know. But she’s on the mainland with Joanie.”

They’ll just have to visit, she decides. LA is beautiful this time of year.

She can see them together, flying with the kids. Their son looking out the plane’s window as she sits in the middle and Steve in the aisle seat holding their daughter on his lap as she sleeps soundlessly.

She can picture Mary and Joanie standing at the arrival gates, signs in hand, waiting for her family.

“I know it’s not Hawaii and there aren’t any leis, but this is the next best thing we got.” Mary says and she laughs, seeing the sign decorated in rainbows and flowers, welcoming her family to the mainland. “Joanie insisted we have a sign.”

She hugs Joan in her arms. “It’s beautiful, baby.”

“I'd like for our kids to know their Aunt Mary and cousin Joanie.”

“They’d have a huge family.” She smiles at this, thinking of the family they ended up with, knowing any child or children they had would have so many people that loved them, blood or not, it didn’t matter to her.

“You name these kids of ours?” She’s beyond curious now of this life he’s pictured for them.

“Jack, after both our dads. Jack Joseph for Joe White—”

“Not after Danny?”

“As much as I like whiskey, I don't want to name our kid Jack Daniel. That's where our daughter comes in. It’s why we had to have two kids or I'd never hear the end of it from Danny.” She bites back a laugh as he mentions the name and nods, agreeing with his thoughts.

“So Danielle?” She says, figuring out their daughter’s name.

“Daniella. We call her Ella so it’s not confusing the two Danny’s.” she nods again, because of course he thought of everything.

She’s cradling her newborn daughter as Steve sits right next to her on the hospital bed and hovers over them. There’s a soft knock on the door before it’s pushed wide open and Jack runs through, Danny hot on his heels, scooping up the young boy before he makes it over to his mother’s bedside, throwing him over his shoulder and then plopping him haphazardly into Steve’s lap as to not disturb the baby.

“Someone here couldn’t wait to meet his baby sister.”

“Yeah, we know it was Uncle Danno, not Jack, right buddy?” Steve eggs on his partner.

“Yeah Daddy.” The little boy agrees and Danny ruffles his hair.

“Uncle Danno,” Steve starts out. “Meet your newest niece, Daniella. We’re calling her Ella because two Danny’s is far too much, we already have you.” Steve introduces the baby, taking her from her mother and handing her over to her new uncle.

“Jack and Ella.” She tests the names on her lips with a smile. She could picture them now, a little boy with dark brown hair and dark eyes, and a little girl with her daddy’s eyes and smile. A family, a life together. “You ever give me that ring?” She jokes with him now, elbowing him gently.

“Yeah, yeah I did. Got down on one knee and everything.” He smirks at her, cockily.

“Yeah?” she raises a brow at him.

“Right in front of Kamekona's shrimp truck with the whole team there to witness. I'm sure I slept on the couch for that one though for it being so public and making you cry.”

They haven't been back on the island for more than four hours, but it was enough time for them to stop back at the house and drop off their things before meeting the rest of their ohana at the shrimp truck. She’s just finishing up an order of Sweet ‘n’ Spicy shrimp when she feels him stand up next to her and step out from the picnic table.

She’s not paying the slightest bit of attention to him, trying to devour as much of the food as she could as she missed it dearly when Danny clears his throat, making her look up.

The rest of the team is sitting there, doe-eyed and smiling, causing her to turn around, seeing Steve down on one knee, holding out the tiny black box, presenting her with the ring he’s had for far too long as the tears well up in her eyes.

“Good tears though, right?” She can feel them starting to prick at her eyes even now.

“Good tears.” He reassures and it makes her squeeze his hand tighter in hers because she can picture it all with him right in front of her. She wants that with him, everything. She sighs softly, letting his words pull her into another universe, one filled with happiness and love and safety. One where she knew exactly the plan for the next morning, one that included school drop offs and homework and dinner on the table and dishes in the sink, not another file with an HVT and a mission for extraction.

“You ever think we’ll have that someday?” She ponders as the plane rocks with slight turbulence.

“I hope so.” He says, staring down at their hands, just like she had been doing.

“Together?” she asks, a tinge of hopefulness in her voice, lingering at the edge as she looks up at his face trying to read him.

“Yeah, Cath, together. I still want all that with you.” He says, staring right back at her with a look in his eyes.

A promise she knows he doesn’t intend on breaking.

She looks forward to whatever the future will bring them, and hopes that one day they’ll get to have all of that and more, but for now she lets the plane take him away and she follows right by his side.

listen the headcanon of them having jack and Daniella wouldn’t leave me so this is what happened… anyway if you want more stories about them, I can be persuaded into writing them possibly so yknow just let me know...

I have literally hundreds of downloaded fics on my phone (all sorted into fandom, sometimes by ship and length as well) but I don’t download until after I’ve finished reading it and I really liked it SO I think it’s time I stopped gatekeeping.

Drop requests here or in my asks for any fic recs! All lengths, all genres, all ratings, lots of ships. Be as specific or vague as you want. Mostly gay but there’s some straight lmao. (Gay/straight ratio also depends on the fandom).

Hawaii Five-0 Fic Ideas/Prompts Masterlist

Steve gets a CornerShot for the armory.

Career day at Grace's or Charlie's school (Grace or Charlie asks Steve to come)

Veteran's day at Grace's or Charlie's school:

Grace or Charlie have to write a letter to a soldier. Grace or Charlie writes one to Steve.

One of Grace's teachers asks her if her Uncle Steve could come and talk about what it means to serve your country and about the meaning of sacrifice.

Nahele tells Steve he wants to join the Navy

Grace tells Danny that she wants to join the Navy bc she wants to be like Auntie Catherine. (McRollins)

Charlie tells Danny that he wants to join the Navy bc he wants to be like Uncle Steve. (Gen, McKono, or McRollins)

Early season 1 – Steve's thoughts on fireworks

After seeing how he reacted when he thought he heard real gunfire (when it was really coming from a video game) in 4x07, I thought about how he'd react to fireworks (especially in season 1), which they seem to have pretty often in Hawaii. Also based on the song "A Soldier's Memoir" by Joe Bachman

Spn x-over: (gen or McKono or McRollins) Maybe John Winchester knew Joe or John McGarrett. While on a case in Hawaii, Sam and Dean notice the name in their dad's journal. Even if Joe never met John W., he knew about him from John M. telling him about him. When Steve and Danny arrest Dean and maybe Sam, too, Joe tells them to let them go.

Spn x-over: Steve is open-minded and trusts his gut and believes Sam and Dean are good guys.

Spn x-over: Maybe Steve's house is haunted, or maybe there's a case that's weird. He remembers seeing something in his dad's stuff. He finds what he's looking for. It's a piece of paper or a sticky note or something that says "John Winchester" with a phone number and says, "Call this number if anything weird happens," or something along those lines.

Reacher (TV show) x-over: Post 3x20 – Reacher decides to go to Hawaii because why not? He ends up getting framed for murder again because that's just his luck. Five-0 gets the case. Steve sees Reacher and looks like he's seen a ghost. Steve believes that Reacher didn't do it. The Five-0 team thinks Steve isn't thinking straight. It's up to Steve, Reacher, and Catherine to prove Reacher's innocence.

Steve goes to Jersey with Danny (gen)

Renee tries to convince Lou to give Steve a chance, to get to know Steve.

Alicia Brown/Steve

Steve has a son and names him Freddie.

Chin remembers Steve as a teenager.

Slight AU where Steve adopts Nahele.

AU where Chin is Steve's partner instead of Danny (I love Steve and Danny's partnership, but I just think it would be interesting to see what it would be like if Steve and Chin were partners since Steve's dad and Chin were partners.)

Steve and kids from cases/crime scenes

Ellie tells Lynn about Steve.

Season 2: Kamekona notices Steve has lost weight.

Kelly (Freddie's widow) and her daughter come to Hawaii. Her daughter wants to know more about her father. Kelly knows Steve was a big part of Freddie's life, so she wants her daughter to know him, too.

Since they never said what her name was, I think maybe the daughter could be named Stephanie. Maybe Kelly did it as a way to show Steve she didn't blame him for what happened to Freddie.

Kelly (Freddie's widow) gets a new job somewhere and sees or finds something she shouldn't, so now she and her daughter are in danger. Being too scared to call the police and not knowing who else to call, she calls Steve. Steve tells her to get on the first flight to Hawaii. She and her daughter make it to Hawaii. Steve protects them.

NSFW: Steve has sensitive nips (gen, McKono, McRollins, Noelani/Steve, Alicia Brown/Steve, or Lynn/Steve)

NSFW: Steve/Kono/Adam

NSFW: Steve has a nice ass (McKono, McRollins, Noelani/Steve, Alicia Brown/Steve, or Lynn/Steve). See evidence below.

Babe, I encourage you to join this fandom (of course if you want) - it would be so great to have you here and to read more of your thoughts! ♥️ And your thoughts are totally ok - always! What you feel and think is yours ❤️ And I get why you thought about writers - I can believe that some of them could ship McDanno 🙂 Unfortunately, Lenkov was a boss. The very bad one, let's add (homophobic, misogynist, misandrist, abusive, big ego man... the list is long). And he wanted McRollins so badly 🙄

There are interviews with Alex and Scott that show how much they (and their opinions about characters) differ from Lenkov. I can send you some links if you're interested (if not - that's totally ok).

I checked that you're from Bulgaria - wow, not so far away from me hah! (greetings from Poland). We're aaaaalmost neighbours 😄

My country is divided, some people are very homophobic (including our ruling party 🤮) and some are very open to anyone. I hope/think that most of us is pro people. I hope that more and more people in your Bulgaria will change their hearts one day. And I'm truly sorry that McDanno fandom isn't very big there! (huh, in Poland isn't either - it was very active mainly on ao3 years ago). If you ever want to you can always share your thoughts and/or your McDanno things with me and other people here (ayy, is that fic of yours somewhere on ao3 or here? I'd love to read it 😍). Hugs ♥️

Once I made a post about Steve and Grace being like father and daughter (https://ellena-asg.tumblr.com/post/700126368692912128/grace-and-her-father-steven) and I confessed to @adelaydebclouds that in my eyes Gracie is - with all my huge respect and love for Danny 😁 - very similar to Steve. Imo she literally looks like Steve, like a little female version of Steve McGarrett. Like his (not Danny's - though she can smile so adorable like him too and definitely not Rachel's) biological kid.

I still think about it. And I made more Gracie-Stevie edits:

And you know, I'm shocked that no one (I mean random people who didn't know who is whose in Five-0's Ohana - passers-by, guests at restaurants, at parties...) said to Gracie "Ohhh, you're so cute!" and to Steve "She's got your eyes, and smile! What a sweet little copy of her daddy!".

source: https://teilorgrubbsfan.tumblr.com/post/653462702404108288/teilor-alex

Hah, it would be cute. And ahh, there's a huge McDanno potential, just imagine a scene like this one:

Random guy, to Steve: Oh, she's such a kind and beautiful girl. You must be proud, daddy!

Danny: O_o

Grace: o_O

Steve: Wow! I, um... I'm not her father. I mean... I am like her father. I love her so much and treat her like my own daughter, you know, but, um, I'm not her biological father. My partner is *points at Danny*. But thank you, you know, it's, it's... nice! You really think she looks like me? *big smile* Wow!

Random guy: Yeah... So... Then... *looking at Danny* No offence, sir, but she's not that similar to you...

Danny: Oh, you sayin'...

Random guy: So I guess she's more like her mother?

Danny: *laughing* No, no, believe me! She's a little angel and her mother is Beelzebub!

Random guy: I meant the looks...

Steve: Oh, naaaah. Thanks God, all what Gracie has - she took it after Danny!

Random guy: You mean... Her mother wasn't pretty?

Steve: Rachel? She isn't, um, ugly but, you know... She's not in my type.

Danny: *detective mode on, putting two and two together* *looking at Steve*

Random guy: *looking at Steve* *looking at Danny* Oh.

@undeadoctopus7 wrote this amazing fic and everyone should read it because it’s incredible

[bgharison]

I'm on page 300 of 500, rewriting an old fic with a hint of mcrollins into a new fic with more than a hint of mcdanno and I'm questioning so many of my life choices right now.

[katiecomma]

Fandom details for...h5o?

the first character i ever fell in love with: Kono when she punched that guy in the face on the beach. I was like: this is the girl for me.

a character that i used to love/like, but now do not: Lou. When Lou started on the show I liked that he was this guy trying to move on from something. Trying to change his life and start over. And he was very different from the rest of the team, which is nice. I even liked when they went back to the stuff that had happened to him before in Chicago... but they turned Lou into a joke. He became over-the-top dad jokes and just... bad plot lines. Honestly, that episode in one of the last seasons where it was so hot... and Lou was out on the golf course and gave the caddy heat stroke because he wouldn’t let him go inside... WTF WAS THAT?!

a ship that i used to love/like, but now do not: So... I still like the ship if I can rewrite canon... but for obvious reasons I hate what they did with Kono/Adam. I still love the idea of them together, but they ruined it in canon. Otherwise I’m not the kind of person who changes their mind on a ship usually... so I don’t have any in this show.

my ultimate favourite character™: Danny Williams. I love everything about him. Sassiness. Stature. Devotion. Everything.

prettiest character: I think we can all agree that Chin Ho Kelly is the prettiest character in any season of H50.

my most hated character: Doris of course.

my OTP: McDanno

my NOTP: McRollins or Danny/Rachel - I’ve ranted about this SOOO many times... but these relationships are unhealthy. I love Catherine as a character but her and Steve are bad for each other. Steve treated her like a doormat the entire time they were together, and she left him when he was relying on her several times. They’re bad for each other. And Danny/Rachel - no. She lied to him about Charlie. He would never forgive her for that.

favourite episode: Honestly, probably the Sarin episode from S1. That moment in Danny’s hospital room... when Steve’s all: You’re lookin’ good... like... that was the moment I was 100% committed to the ship. I shipped them before that moment... but that moment was my: OK, they’re actually in love... moment. S1E23

saddest death: Joe - I couldn’t believe they killed Joe. I bawled my face off.

favourite season: Probably S1 - solid all the way through. Good plots. Good episodes. Loved the characterization of everyone. Building up the team. Found family vibes. I could have done without the Danny/Rachel stuff... but otherwise good season.

least favourite season: Probably S10 - I just... I didn’t like the end. Even setting aside my McDanno shipping glasses... it didn’t make sense to me... and there was a lot I just didn’t like. I can’t get specific cause it was just a general vibe. Maybe because everyone knew it was coming to an end?... I don’t know... 

character that everyone else in the fandom loves, but i hate: I never cared for Jerry. I don’t hate him... just... everyone seems to really like Jerry... but he just... I don’t know I just never cared for him. Hate is a strong word though. I don’t hate him. But I don’t think there’s anyone in this series I hate. Except Lou, and he’s never struck me as a fan favourite.

my ‘you’re piece of trash, but you’re still a fave’ fave: Jenna Kaye - she really fucked them over and did some terrible things. But I love her a lot and I kinda ship her and Steve a little. Although I like that they never went there in the show and had the shield of her “maybe alive fiance” to keep it from going there... but I still ship them a teensy bit.

my ‘beautiful cinnamon roll who deserves better than this’ fave: Kono Kalakaua - girl deserved better. So much better. I love what they did with her while she was on the show. But I HATED what they did with her character off screen after she left.

my ‘this ship is wrong, nasty, and makes me want to cleanse my soul, but i still love it’ ship: I don’t have one in this fandom. But I don’t really ship much outside of McDanno in this fandom.

my ‘they’re kind of cute, and i lowkey ship them, but i’m not too invested’ ship: I ship Quinn/Catherine... but they’ve never interacted... and although I had plans to write them a fic, I still haven’t... they just hang out in my head being military girls in love.

Thanks for the ask!!! I love these!!!

Color Commentator 1: Good evening, Bill, and welcome everyone to the final round in the 2020 Deathmatch Battle for Biggest Queer-bait Ending Ever! It has come down to H50 vs. SPN!

Color Commentator 2: Yes, Jane, these two fandoms have been teased and gaslit for years, and McDanno *does* have the advantage of first out of the gate, with the showrunners displaying complete fandom tone-deafness by forcing McRollins against the wishes of both their leads?

CC1: Well, it’s true that homophobia is strong on both networks, but based on hyper-het male programming, I too am giving CBS the edge here. That’s why I think Destiel is coming in as the underdog, since they are on a network that has been willing to have queer characters in their shows compared to CBS’ All cops/military/alpha-males-so-tough-they-won’t-even-touch-their-own-cocks-to-pee level of anti-gay programming.

CC2: And yet, you can’t discount the legacy of Texas when the CW is about to re-launch that state’s most famous heterosexual sheriff, so they won’t want their lead to show up with gay-cooties by proxy. Can the struggling network afford to piss off the Loan Star State and it’s hundreds of insecure male viewers? Those bros are worth far more than the show’s actual mostly queer, mostly female fanbase. Because let’s face it, no one really cares what ladies think.

CC1: Good point, Bill. And Scott and Alex did make the effort to release a post-season McDanno cuddle pic so at least the fans would know where they stood on their ‘ship and finale. Destiel fans are likely to be left with the “All Gays go to Superhell” character arc, the biggest queer-bait bitch slap to date, and then roll out an ever-apologizing Misha Collins to try and smooth things over.

CC2: Yes, Jane, but let’s not forget the Big, Straight, Dick Energy of an abusive motherfucker of a showrunner on CBS, so that keeps McDanno as strong contenders for the title. We are coming up on the designated hour, so let’s see which team of showrunners will win the coveted title of Queer-baiting Assholes for Life?

***SPN Final Airs****

CC1: Wow, Bill.

CC2: Yeah Jane. You just never expect homicidal clown vampires led buy some random chick from Season 1?

CC1: I thought for sure McDanno had the title in the bag, but then it turns out the CW is even worse at age-progressing their 40-something actors than CBS.

CC2: True. Supernatural clinched the win when they brought the car to heaven but not the gay angel that apparently Dean doesn’t give a shit about as long as he can drive his car around British Columbia.

CC1: And while we congratulate both shows on climbing to the highest apex that Queerbaiting has to offer, you can’t help but feel bad for the fans who wasted over a decade on each show.

CC2: It’s in the fic-writer’s hands now, Jane. Those beautiful saviors of shitty show-endings.

CC1: The true heroes of fandom everywhere, Bill. True heroes.

CC2: And maybe some day the fans will learn to stop watching homophobic programming for decades expecting a different result that never comes.

CC1: Well, Bill, I guess we need to pray for networks to hire more women and queer showrunners to write genre television.

CC2: Jane, you ignorant slut.

Every now and again and I remember that I wrote a past McRollins but McDanno endgame fic based on a few lines from Julie, but like I mean

And I bet Julie's really smart Oh you keep saying she's so cool But if you pick her over me you're just a fool

Author Ask

I’ve been tagged by @thekristen999 for this Author Asks.

Found it interesting. Hope you will too.

Beware, it’s a LONG one!

Author Name: Orison

Fandoms You Write For: I only focus on one fandom per time so right now it’s all about Hawaii Five-0, but I’ve written for Elementary, Lethal Weapon and a few other shows.

I’ve been writing since I can remember, but English isn’t my native language so it took me a while to find the courage to write and post stories in a language that wasn’t my own. My very first fandom was a show called “Third Watch”. I wrote a lot of stories for that, more like creative exercises to see if I could do it and if I was any good at it.

Where You Post: FF.net and AO3. They have an entirely different audience, and it’s interesting to see the reactions/comments every time I post. AO3 is mostly about McDanno, and I have to admit sometimes I feel out of place there since I don’t write Steve and Danny as a couple. I’ve wondered a few times what would happen if I added the “relationship” tag since people tend to prefer those kind of stories and skip the others, but this is who I am and I write what makes me happy. FF.net is mostly general with a definite hint of McRollins, and it’s the first one I joined when I started writing.

Most Popular One-Shot: “Until it Hurts”, a 9x01 coda about Steve dealing with the repercussions of his ordeal inside the sensory deprivation tank. I love to explore human emotions, and the show never focuses on the aftermath of traumatic events so someone has to, right? ;) 

I will also mention “Catch Me When I Fall”, which is part of my “Rescue Me” series,  where Steve and Danny are involved in a bank robbery and there’s unexpected consequences for both. 

Yes, I like whump. A lot.

Most Popular Multi-Chapter Story: “Drowning on Dry Land”, aka my first ‘serious’ long fic in which friendly fire puts Danny in the hospital and Steve on a self-destructive, guilt-fueled path. I’m quite proud of this story, and it’s probably my favorite so far.

Favorite Story You Wrote: Since I just mentioned one, my second choice would be “Echoes From the Past”, also part of the ‘Rescue Me’ series. It mentions PTSD (because let’s face it, Steve is the poster child for that), and I got a comment from someone who actually served who thought it was realistic and well written. That made my day. 

Story You Were Nervous To Post: My very first one, “Night Musings” a 8x06 coda, because I was new to the fandom and there’s so many talented writers around I wasn’t sure I had something to add. 

How Do You Pick Your Titles: I LOVE titles. Titles are as important as the story itself, so I take great effort to make sure I find the right one. Sometimes it’s a quote, sometimes a line from the story, or the title of an episode of a show I like. Whatever it is, I always make sure it fits.

Do You Outline:  Yes. Most of the time, my stories are inspired by a single scene, or an image that pops in my head, and I have to write a whole plot around it. Outlining is essential. Granted, sometimes you start writing and end up in the opposite direction, but I like to have a general idea of where the story is going.

How Many Of Your Stories Are Complete: All of them. I never post WIPs because I’m afraid I’ll never finish them, and I have been the reader who stared in shock at the words ‘To Be Continued’ at the end of a chapter so I don’t want to do the same to my readers. I never post a story if it isn’t finished.

In-Progress: Part 11 of the ‘Rescue Me’ series.

Coming Soon: The aforementioned part 11 and probably a 9x07 coda after Alex’s episode airs because there will be heartbreak and feelings and I already know I’m going to need to write one.

Do You Accept Prompts: I do. The ‘Rescue Me’ series was born out of prompts. Tumblr prompts for the first few stories, and then my closest friends started to pitch in and suggested ideas. If I find them interesting and it’s something I can write about, I use them.

Upcoming Story You’re the Most Excited For: I don’t really have one, as my WIP is still in its early stages. To some degree, I’m excited about all of my stories because if I wasn’t then there would be no point in writing them. It takes a lot of time and effort to write, especially for me, so I have to love what I’m doing or I’ll give up.

 If you made it this far, thank you for reading!

Not tagging anyone in particular. Whoever wants to do this is free to jump in.

9, 16, 30, 45 :)

Thank you for sending me your questions! 😊

9. What are the best things about your current fandom?

There are many things, but most of all the people! There are so many wonderful and inspiring people in this fandom (H50) and I’ve made some really great and sweet and amazing friends here. Everyone is kind, it’s so easy and laid-back. And I love the creativity, there are so many talented writers and artists, people who pick up on all the wonderful details canon provides and highlight them in gifsets or think them further in headcanons and fic.

Oh, and fanfic. There is so much fantastic fanfic for McDanno/H50! I mean, the show has been running for nearly 10 years, there are more than 15k fics on AO3 alone, and there are some gems hidden but still around on LJ or FFnet or else. You might have to dig a little, but there is at least one fic for every trope you could possibly wish for. (I’ve been in a lot of smaller fandoms before, where at some point you’d have read all there was to read, but this won’t ever be the case with H50!)

16. Are there any popular ships in your fandom which you dislike?

I guess that would be McRollins. (And probably Danny/Rachel, even though I think I have never come across anyone who really ships them?)

30. What inspires you to write?

That’s so different. Sometimes it’s things on the show that I have picked up on and that I want to explore; other times it’s small everyday things and wondering how they would be handled by my favorite character(s).

45. What is your all time favourite fanfic?

I’ve answered the question here.

🌈  my favorite male characteri honestly don’t think i can even choose there are so many characters i love. maybe chin. or max! or lou! or JERRY. (not to say that i don’t adore steve and danny it’s just that those two are probably also the biggest knuckleheads on the show and sometimes the shenanigans they pull FRUSTRATE ME)

🌈  my favorite female characterdefinitely kono but i also love grace and abby

🌈  my otpMCDANNO

🌈  my notpprobably mcrollins. purely because there was so many SECRETS in that relationship and they kept flip flopping and it ANNOYED me like either you trust each other or you don’t but MAKE UP YOUR MIND

🌈  my other shipsagain, i have many, i am a multi-shipper at heart, let me list for you my loves. in no particular order: danny/kono, danny/chin, danny/amber (i really liked these two together they were so cute), danny/DR MINDY SHAW (CAN WE HAVE THIS PLEASE LIKE IF THE SHIPS MUST BE STRAIGHT ALWAYS THEN AT LEAST GIVE ME THIS), you know what else i read a fic for once and was SUPER INTO danny/kawika, danny is like my stiles of hawaii i can ship him with just about anyone, max/sabrina (god they’re adorable), kono/adam, kono/catherine, kono/charlie, kono/abby, (just let kono be bi 2k17), chin/malia, chin/abby, chin/leilani (they were sweet why did this pairing never really get off the ground WHY), chin/steve, lou/samantha (THEY. ARE. SO. CUTE.)and i think that’s it

🌈  my least favorite characterfucking doris i hate her SO MUCH like stop looking for the worst mother in the world WE’VE FOUND HER
