DC x DP Therapy Prompt 2.0

Bruce had given Danny all the power that went into picking a therapist, which is fine. That's what the kid needed.

What he didn't expect to already blow through eight different therapists.

Danny lived in little ole Amity Park, no one had expected him to have connections all the way to Gotham. Yet, Danny claimed to recognize 2 our of 8 therapist.

Then finally, just finally Bruce thought he found the right one. Her history was ridiculously impressive, and she seemed to have a good hand in handling teenage boys.

Bruce wished he met her ages prior. It would be easier than his boys being at different therapists. Bruce felt ready, prepared, and lucky.

But then Danny walked in...

And then right out.

Fear rose in him with every chasing step along the way back to the car. Danny had ignored him every step of the way. Up until they were buckled into the ride and Bruce was preparing himself to move on.

Then Danny spoke, and immediately all of Bruce's worries and fears flooded out of him.

This wasn't the one. She wasn't the one that made Danny hesitant about therapy.

No.

She was his sister. Danny's rush leave was solely from the fact that he was met with this sister. His sister who thought it was a good idea to mention this to Bruce.

Regardless, Bruce was most opposed to meeting said therapist.

Danny had been so strong on his rules of engagement. Bruce wasn't to meet a therapist until after the fifth session.

Which the man was perfectly fine with. He loved Danny, and only wanted the best for the teen.

However!

That didn't stop the rambunctious laughter that ripped through him at the teen's flushed cheeks.

Lost Boys

A multi fandom crackfic starring Ryoga Hibiki & Roronoa Zoro

Fandoms Include: One Piece, Ranma 1/2, Witcher, LotR, Zelda, Prydain, Fruits Basket, Old Guard, Slayers, Doctor Who and HDM Rated: G Words: 27,733 No Pairings Summary: Zoro and Ryoga get so lost they travel through other fandoms. No, they don't know what's going on either, but they sure would like to find out. Maybe someone along the way will have answers?

Authors Notes: I know a crossover like this is daunting. Not only are there 11 different fandom universes involved, but it's 27k.

First - I try to write all my crossovers so that you do NOT need to know the other fandoms to enjoy this fic. You might enjoy it even more if you do, but you can still enjoy it if you don't.

Second - I believe I have succeeded and I have testimony to prove it! I had @socially-awkward-chocobo read this over before I posted. She has no knowledge at all of HDM, never even saw the last movie for LotR (and doesn't remember much of the first 2), barely knows anything about Ranma 1/2 and doesn't remember anything about Prydain, except that it was read to her once as a child. And she enjoyed the fic :D

Thanks go to a number of people for encouraging this fic, helping this fic, or giving me ideas of fandoms/characters to play with. Including Socially-awkward-chocobo, I'd also like to thank

@li-izumi @unforth @ialwayscomewhenyoucall

... I think Tumblr is making it harder to tag people in posts. And to check if you did.

Fanfic commissions for Palestine now open!

I know I said I won't take commissions on this blog but we all know I love to break the rules for causes I believe in so here we go!

As part of the @dcufans4palestine event, I will be opening up fanfic commissions from now until August 10th.

Since I have a sizable following and I want to be able to fulfill what I say, I'll be limiting it to 5 commissions with a 1.5k word maximum for the time being, and it'll be first-come, first-serve. And so it's fair to everyone, each person can only commission 1 work. If I'm able, I may open up a few more slots down the road.

Slots available: 2/5 (as of August 10th)

Each fanfic commission will be a flat rate of $5.00 USD donated to any of the charities linked here. To do so, make a donation and send a screenshot to this Google Form. Additionally, please message @dcufans4palestine so they can verify your donation and put us in touch.

Characters and relationships I'll write:

Platonic batfamily, including extended members and We Are Robin

Young Justice, platonic or romantic

Birdflash, platonic or romantic (Dick Grayson x Wally West)

Jayroy, platonic or romantic (Jason Todd x Roy Harper)

Super Sons, platonic or romantic

Super Pets, platonic

I'll cover the humor, fluff, angst, hurt/comfort, and character study genres.

All stories will take place in the mainline comic universe by default. If you would like me to use a different continuity or want to request an AU, please DM me before making a donation so I can let you know if it's a viable option.

Things I will NOT write:

NSFW, explicit or implied

Violence beyond canon-typical

Fandom crossovers. If you're not sure whether your idea counts, DM me

Multi-part fics. All commissions will be one-shots

BONUS: If you want a custom Spotify playlist (20 songs) to go with your fic, you can add an additional $3.00 USD to your donation. Please indicate that in your donation form and leave a note in my DMs. Playlists will not be made without a fanfic commission.

All fics will be posted the week of August 17th to Tumblr and the event's Ao3 collection. Donors will be tagged on Tumblr and gifted on Ao3 unless otherwise specified. Donors will also receive a copy of their fic on Google Docs, a link to their private playlist (if applicable), and a personalized thank you/roast you note where I vibe check your blog.

If you have any questions about your ideas or what I'm able to write, please send me a DM. If you have any questions about the event, including the donor raffle, please contact @dcufans4palestine.

Why does this work so well?!

People of the Danny Phantom x DC Universe/anything Batman fandom!

Please explain to me HOW DO THESE TWO DIFFERENT FANDOMS WORK SO WELL TOGETHER?

These are two completely separate superhero properties. Sure superheroes properties in general can blend pretty well together, but I have not seen a crossover where they have blended as well as the dpxdc crossover fandom.

I don't really see as many Danny Phantom crossover fics with the Marvel Universe. And vice vera, I don't see any of the DC universe heroes really crossing over with any other superhero fandoms (besides Marvel) as well as they crossover with Danny Phantom. The only other fandom that is popular being crossed over to the DC universe is the Miraculous Ladybug fandom, and that's it's own analysis.

But Danny Phantom is a property from the early 2000s (it first aired in 2004, this show is 20 years old!) What are the chances, that these two go so well together? How did it even start?

I didn't even know this was a thing, I happened upon it when I happened upon a fic. (Bus to Nowhere, really well written story)

And this just opened up a ton of new things that the DPx DC fandom made. Especially batman!

Danny being a chaos gremlin across all of the DC universe.

Ectoplasm=Lazarus Water

Jason Todd is liminal

Lady Gotham! (a completely new character created by the crossover fandom!)

Danny being adoption bait for the serial adopter that is Bruce!

Why does it work so well?

Genuinely curious here, like why don't other fandoms mesh well as this one? And how does this crossover have such awesome fics and hilarious stories?

If I were to compare it to any other fandom that could potentially work with the DC universe, like Transformers or Ben 10. (there's aliens and supervillains in those shows, they could definitely crossover in the DC universe) But I don't really see crossover fics with them. Is it the fandom? fanbase just not interested? the ideas just don't mesh well?

But for DPxDC, the ideas are abundant! Everytime I come to tumblr, I see a new prompt or fic idea for the fandom and immediately just go "that's an amazing idea!"

Not to mention the ship names!

They're adorable !

Dead Tired/ Brain Dead= Tim x Danny

Anger Management= Jazz x Jason

Dead on Main/ Double Dead= Danny x Jason

Super Dead= Jon x Danny

Multi-level Marketing= Vlad x Lex Luthor (I did not know that I even had a pairing name!)

Dead Silent= Cass x Danny

Ghost Lights= Duke x Danny

Look at those beautiful names! And that's just a couple of them! Somebody please explain to me. How did this even happen?! How did this all start?! Is this like a lightning in a bottle situation? Where it's not likely we'll see a crossover that happens like this anytime soon?

[pseudowho]

hiya!!!! 💙💙💙💙 i wanted to ask...

any favorite nanami writers here? any blog you recommend? 💙

Oof, this is a hard one. I find Nanami Kento is written for really prolifically, though some authors only have one or two fics of them.

So I'll give you some of the best I know of! It also depends what TYPE of Nanami Kento you're wanting to read. So I'll also do who I think does Nanami Kento truest to character, WITH the highest quality writing.

@threadbaresweater Writes the most incredibly warm, heartfelt Nanami Kento works. He's treated realistically with the insight and sensitivity that Lin is so natural at.

@kentopedia Has some good pieces, and a fairly prolific Nanami Kento Masterlist, alongside her Selfship with Nanami Kento, if that's your sort of thing. She has one particular Bad!Nanami piece which is amazing, and I believe she's currently writing another longer, multi-chapter Bad!Nanami piece.

@starsinmylatte Has only started writing for Nanami quite recently but fuck me, they are excellent. She is also STILL writing and has much more to come.

@mellarkee (now @satorini ) Has some exceptional pieces, and a new series with Nanami Kento which is so exceptionally good (a GoT crossover) that I INSIST you start reading, EVEN IF YOU DON'T LIKE GOT, because its quality transcends there being a fandom crossover.

I'm editing because I forgot @daisynik7 like a total dumbass. Her Nanami is warm, funny, sexy and bold. I read her work to love Nanami Kento even more than I do now.

Also, @capricornlevi, @gojonanami and @Cali honey have exceptional Masterlists of Nanami pieces.

Also, I refuse to forget the artists: @eldritchdilf , @schrissdd , @studioaxel and @yuutaguro have wonderful Nanami Kento artwork.

I'm certain I must have missed some people...but these are some who spring instantly to mind.

I think my stuff's pretty alright too 🤡

Happy reading!

[mylittleredgirl]

while we’re having the endless debate about sorting by kudos or not on ao3, i have to stump for my personal favorite way to find fics:

i basically always go straight to the “bookmarks” page for whatever pairing/tag i’m reading rather than the “works” page, and i literally just realized why: it lights up the same parts of my tumblr gremin brain as my dash does.

content hand-selected by people who are bookmarking shit for their own reasons entirely unknowable to me, so it’s a mix of quality peer review and user xyz’s to-read list

if you keep going back to it there’s a repetition over time as new people bookmark old fics. as a tumblr girlie my brain enjoys seeing Thing I Recognize

brand new fics often show up there if they’re good!! (equivalent: new posts tagged “investing at 5 notes”)

a lot of the top kudos fics keep showing up too because so many people sort the works page that way (equivalent: heritage post)

but so much random stuff shows up too that i would otherwise never find, thanks to the hardworking folks out there sobbing into the bottom of the tag at 4 am (equivalent: those posts with 56 notes from 2011 that somehow?? end up on your dash like bestie how did you even find that)

sometimes there are 30 bookmarks in a row by the same person who has a new hyperfixation and you get to think “good for them”

sometimes you get to recognize a username as someone having good or seriously bad taste

sometimes i see my own fics in the mix!! and get that little hit of positive attention (or neutral attention i guess, when people add a bookmarker tag like “it’s about [my fave character] but it’s ok”)

yeah! people can add bookmarker tags and their own notes! so sometimes people rec fics or add marginalia and their own sortable tags (but most people don’t)

there’s always that one fucking harry potter crossover fic with 194 tags in the mix (equivalent: manscaped ads you can’t escape). not saying this is a plus, but scrolling past the same long post you hate for the dozenth time is also an essential part of the tumblr experience.

re: that last bullet point, the one downside of the bookmarks page is that the filtering isn’t quite as robust as on the works page. you do have all the usual include/exclude filter options, but the very last section of filtering (crossovers, WIPs, word count, date range) is not available. (@ ao3 coders please i’m begging 🥺🙏)

anyway i’m sure the bookmarking economy is different across fandoms, but this will give you a semi-randomized feed of the tag, weighted toward new and popular fics (and, for better or worse, unfinished multi-chapter works and megafandom crossovers). it’s probably a good place to start for people who long for an algorithm, but unlike the usual user-targeted panopticon experience it’s more like the chance to rummage through strangers’ junk drawers for fic. tumblr vibes. you get me.

Happy Holidays from Silmkinkmeme!

Belated, but still, happy holidays and thank you all for the amazing year. Let's see how we did in 2024.

The kinkmeme's Ao3 collection has 436 prompts at the moment, almost double the previous year's number. There are 192 works in the collection (some works were not posted to the collection, so the actual number is even higher), which means around 70(!) fics were written for the kinkmeme only in 2024. Our Prompt Post 1 has surpassed 1000 comments last year and now boasts 1114.

And now a stat that only the mod can see - the number of claims on Ao3. *drumroll* We have 590 CLAIMS, more claims than prompts, way more than we had this time last year (171). Of course, not all of these claims will become fills, but the number is still astonishing compared to 2024.

As you might know from previous posts, starting February, I will begin promoting prompts from 2022 on this blog. At some point during the year, I will also open a new collection because I can't keep making backup accounts to crosspost prompts and because it's been almost three years. Stay tuned for more info!

Once again, my thanks to every single person who has contributed to kinkmeme in any way. I hope to see you again this year.

Some other stats under the cut.

Explicit works still form the greatest part of kinkmeme fills (114) while fandom leader Gen is only in the fourth place with 19 works.

Kinkmeme warnings mostly align with the general fandom (No Archive Warnings, followed by Chose Not To Warn), except apparently kinkmeme writers aren't fans of Major Character Death, which is in the fifth place in the kinkmeme and in the third in the Silmarillion tag. No Underage tag in the kinkmeme.

The Gen category is unsurprisingly in the first place for the general fandom, while M/M leads kinkmeme (97 works) with Gen only in the third place (30 works). F/M is the second with 47 works and F/F shares the fourth place with Multi (20 works each).

In 2024, we had two Rings of Power fills! We also had two interesting crossovers - Chronicles of Narnia and Pride and Prejudice.

No surprises in the leading character. Maedhros is and will most likely remain a fan favorite in the kinkmeme and the fandom in general. He's appeared in 86 works. Maglor sits firmly in the second place with 68. (There's a joke about these numbers somewhere.) Now the third place is Fingon's in the kinkmeme (44 works) unlike the general tag where he is the fourth and Elrond who is only the tenth in the kinkmeme is the third. Finrod who is placed tenth in the general tag is the fourth in the kinkmeme (23 works). Kinkmeme writers continue ignoring Sauron, Celebrimbor and Glorfindel who are respectively numbers five, eight and nine in the general tag. Instead, we have Curufin, Aredhel and Fingolfin in the top ten. Unfortunately, Aredhel is the only woman left while last year there were four ladies among the most popular characters. It's still one more than the general fandom.

It was probably inevitable as the kinkmeme got more popular, but Fingon/Maedhros is now leading the top ten (34 works) in the relationship tag. Last year's leader Maedhros/Maglor is now in the second place (26 works). I'd still count it as a win because the ship doesn't appear in the general fandom's top ten at all. Now Maedhros & Maglor is in the fourth place in the general tag and in the kinkmeme (last year, the gen version of their relationship wasn't in the kinkmeme's top ten). Feanor/Nerdanel is steadily the third in both places. Morgoth/Sauron, Erestor/Glorfindel, Celebrian/Elrond. Celebrimbor/Sauron, Feanor/Fingolfin and Elrond & Maglor, all very popular in the general fandom (Angbang is in the second place after Russingon), are absent from the kinkmeme's top ten. Instead we have Galadriel/Melian, Galadriel/Luthien (no femslash fics in the general top ten), Elrond & Elros and Fingon/Maglor (new to the top ten!).

As for the additional tags, we start from Anal Sex (30 works) and end with Cunnilingus (9 works), making stops at PWP, Oral Sex, Sibling Incest, First Time and Dubious Consent. No Fluff, Humor or Grief/Mourning for the kinkmeme and not even AU, all in the general top ten. But Angst and Hurt/Comfort are of course among the most popular tags in the kinkmeme and in the general fandom. Angst is still the most popular in the general tag and third in the kinkmeme. No sex-related tags in the general fandom's top ten, while seven of top ten additional tags in the kinkmeme are E-rated.

That's all for last year. Thank you if you've read to the end. We'll see how trends change this year.

Podfic Stats - 2024 Edition!

I chose to track this year by when I posted (or in a few cases, privately shared or submitted a finished pod to a person or challenges). This means that some things that go into this year's total were technically done prior to 2024, but not many! This also means that some things that are done but unposted will not count toward this year (but again, not many!) Also, because I tracked by when podfics were posted rather than finished (the most reliable way for me to track; I am very bad at updating constantly when I finish something, but I can easily go thru to check when stuff was posted & update), this caused the big event months (December, August, May) to be weighted more strongly, but everything made for those events was within this year, so idk, I still think it's fun and cool.

OVERALL

I posted 481 podfics or podfic updates over the course of 2024!

Across all of that, I posted (or in a few cases, privately shared) over 141 hours of podfic!

@bittercape, who was my recipient in the Marvel/DC 48 Hour Exchange and I went a little over the top lmao. I am so sorry bits, but I am also so glad you enjoyed your pods!

FINAL THOUGHTS

This was a weird year, because I got top surgery, moved countries, and have been unemployed for the last few months. But also I made so much content and had so much fun with it and I'm blown away and proud of that? Like, seriously, how many people outside of like people who make audio for their jobs can say they created almost 6 days worth of finished audio in a year??

I think this year I also let myself just follow my heart and go nuts a lot, and it definitely paid off. I'm not sure what goals I have for next year except try to finish some WIPs, try to continue avoiding things like Big Bangs that stress me out, try to continue doing things like Voiceteam and Podfic Exchanges that excite me, and otherwise just... have fun with it?

Fanfic writer interview

Thank you @emmanuellececchi for the tag!! 💖 I've been tagged on this game a couple of times in the past, but I never answered them because looking at my Ao3 Stats just made me feel sad.

Stats are a little better now, and I have thicker skin about it, so here we go! :)

How many works do you have on AO3? 23

What's your total AO3 word count? 72,658

Your top 5 stories by kudos/likes:

Taken (Eomer x OC) *most popular by a large margin!

Greenleaf's Day Out (Child Legolas and family)

The Task of Living (Thorin x Reader)

Breathe (Boromir x Reader)

Dandelions (Boromir x Reader)

Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? Umm. I am shamefully REALLY bad at responding to comments. More often than not, I just don't get around to it! I know that's a terrible thing to do as a writer, because commenters deserve so much appreciation! It is definitely one of my resolutions in the coming New Year to improve on this flaw.

What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending? The Broken Shield - It's a Thorin fic set during the War of the Dwarves and Orcs, and shows the death of both Elvenqueen Maereth and Frerin, brother of Thorin.

What's the fic you've written with the happiest ending? I like to think most of the fics I write have happy endings, but I've received feedback about Dandelions being particularly "feel good".

Do you write crossovers? Crossovers are not my thing, BUT I did receive a fic request for one from a friend, so I'm going to deliver it just because they asked.

Have you ever received hate on a fic? Never, thankfully. I don't think my reach is wide enough to attract the notice of haters.

Do you write smut? If so, what kind? Nope, I leave smut to the experts. M-level spice is the most I can manage.

Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not that I know of.

Have you ever had a fic translated? Nope, and I can't imagine anyone would want to.

Have you ever co-written a fic before? @scyllas-revenge and I sorta accidentally co-wrote a sort-of fic. LOL. Maybe we'll formalize the partnership eventually. @heilith and I have been discussing a (her)Lindir x (my)OC collaboration for ages now, but we're both so busy offline! I would love to co-write fics, but only with friends I'm confident can tolerate my slowness and focus issues.

What's your all-time favorite ship? I enjoy MANY ships across different fandoms, but none really stand out. On a personal level, I really love my Thranduil x Maereth ship. It means so much to me that I will forever be insecure about sharing it with others, for fear of rejection or criticism.

What's a WIP that you want to finish but don't think you ever will? I want to finish ALL my WIPs and I don't think about ditching any of them. Hope springs eternal!

What are your writing strengths? If you ask me? Worldbuilding and integrating my AU into canon. If you ask others? I've been told I can deliver a decent gut-wrenching piece of prose or dialogue here and there.

What are your writing weaknesses? I am the SLOWEST WRITER YOU WILL EVER MEET. Tons of WIPs. Updates on long fics are a miracle. I honestly question whether I'm cut out for multi-chapter fics, but I keep trying anyway.

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic? I only do it sparingly, usually using short phrases here and there.

What's a fandom/ship you haven't written for yet but want to? I am chomping at the bit to write for ASOIAF/Game of Thrones/House of the Dragon! I have fic requests waiting for HotD; I just need to get my butt moving on them.

What's your favorite fic you've written? I have yet to write a fic that stands out above the others; I love my fics equally for different reasons.

Bonus: Live shots of me trying to write:

Some AO3 stats to start the year....

Fics with Hannibal Lecter loves Will Graham

OR Will Graham Loves Hannibal Lecter

Note the pattern on Hannibal's data

Will's eyes match his data

Woof!

We all know who Will loved the most until a certain cannibal serial killing psychiatrist came along.

Will's Graham's Dogs got their own tag.

Dogs covers a multitude of canine themes (and also some sins).

We have more fics that are Hannibal works only (unless this category doesn't match the fic's tags)

Crossovers include all flavours of HEU if tagged.

Includes fics that are multi chaptered, from multiple fandoms, and Hannibal is just one chapter in the fic.

The number of WIPs is higher for 2024 as one would expect - some may have only been posted last week.

Wouldn't hold your breath on too many of those fics from a decade ago being completed (sobs gently into my keyboard, thinking of 'What the water gave me' though that was 2020)

Who's There?

Picked out the obvious top 2 character tags plus some other random people who just happened to be passing by.

Obviously works can have one or all of these tags

These are from categories selected when posting a work.

Unsurprisingly M/M is highest, which is why I've put them on a second axis.

Works can have one or all of these categories; whatever fits.

F/F can include genderbending.

Multi doesn't necessarily mean it's that kind of party!

Just because I love well written crack, and it's what brought me into the fandom.

Will/Hannibal

Will & Hannibal

Or.... both?

Remember:

&: friends, don't share a bed unless it's an 'only one bed scenario' (but they never touch)

/: special friends, share a bed and ALL the bodily fluids

I have an idea that is impossibly ambitious and may end up being a complete disaster, but if it works, it’ll be an awesome event for our little fandom. As a fan fiction reader and writer, I know how important interaction is for the longevity of fanfics in the fandom. In order for readers to have content to read, writers have to write. And for writers to write, they need feedback and love. Comments and kudos are great, but have you ever wanted to take it a step forward? As a reader, have you ever wondered what you could do to encourage your favorite writers and give back? Have you ever wondered if your work is honor-worthy? I certainly have, and for that reason, I want to host fanfic awards! 

Here’s how I think it will work: For my concept, it will be completely fan-nominated and fan-voted. I have come up with categories and stipulations, but I am open to suggestions for both. I plan to create a Google Form in which fans can nominate stories for each category, and the stories that are nominated the most for each will become the nominees (or if there are few votes, then all suggestions will become official nominees). Then, I will create a second Google Form in which the official nominees will be voted upon. The nominees in each category that gain the most votes will win! I’m still trying to come up with prizes, but at this point, I think an official graphic that winners can display on their blogs, profiles, etc. will be enough, as with the official titles. If you have an idea for prizes, let me know! 

Stipulations for Nominations: 

-Please only nominate one story per writer for each category. To clarify, you can nominate a story by your favorite writer for two categories, but not two in the same category. 

-Please only nominate stories from the past five years (I want to try and highlight stories from the more modern era since our fandom has fallen off. The writers who have been here deserve some recognition!) This does not pertain to the Legacy Fic award. 

-Please don’t nominate a fic in one category more than once. I’m not collecting emails for privacy reasons, but it isn’t fair to nominate one fic five or six times. Give other fics a chance! 

-You may nominate one fic in more than one category if the fic will fit into that criteria. However, I will likely use my best judgment to determine if the fic needs to be in both categories. 

-Please only nominate fics in the All Time Low fandom.

-Please CAREFULLY read the criteria for each category before nominating. Also, be sure to check the year a fic was last updated/posted to ensure that it is from the past five years (nothing past 2019). Fics can be posted anywhere (ex. ao3, wattpad, mibba, etc.) 

Categories: 

-Best Fluff (any pleasant, feel-good work)

-Best Angst (main plot has to do with prevalent physical or, mainly, emotional torment of characters)

-Best Smut (focuses on sexual activity)

-Best Kink (fics focusing on a specific kink(s) rather than just sexual activity)

-Best Crossover (fics featuring members of ATL and members of other bands, actors, etc.)

-Best Drabble (fic under 1000 words)

-Best One Shot (single-chapter work)

-Best Ongoing (fic that is still being written)

-Best Completed (fic that is multi-chaptered and completed)

-Best Legacy Fic (an iconic fic that is well-known and respected in the fandom and has been for many years)

Please direct any questions, comments, or suggestions to my ask box! More information will be out as more is decided.

The nomination form.

Fic writer interview thank you for the tag @481boxboxbaby and @souvenir116

Tagging @saviour-of-lord and @ilyarozanove (not sure if you have been tagged already and no pressure if you don't like tag games!) and anyone else who wants to do this feel free to use this as your invite.

How many works do you have on AO3? 155 - Wow okay I don’t know how I ended up writing so many.

What's your total AO3 word count? 1,076,320

What are your top 5 fics by kudos? 1. Preloved  2. Good Boy 3. A million times over 4. Weak 5. My Pretty Princess

Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? I try to respond to comments and I have gotten a lot better at it. If I have ever not responded it's because I have left it too late and then panic over whether it's still appropriate to respond!! I read all comments though, it’s the biggest motivator so thank you to everyone who leaves comments on fics, I appreciate you all <3

What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending? Either ‘One last night’ or ‘Hitching a ride’ Both are open ended though. 

What's the fic you've written with the happiest ending?There are a lot that have happy endings but off the top of my head I will go with ‘A million times over’. It’s just an overall short cute one-shot.

Do you write crossovers? No

Have you ever received hate on a fic? If I have then I have forgotten about it because I can’t recall any hate coming in. I am sure there are plenty of people who hate my stories though, I’ve just been lucky they haven’t told me about it! 

Do you write smut? If so, what kind? Yes I do and lots of it. Almost any kind. Dom/sub, pain play, tentacles, omegaverse, lots of kinks, nice soft sex, loss of virginity. I would definitely say varied!

Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not stolen but hmmm I have seen something very close to what I have written. 

Have you ever had a fic translated? No, not that I have seen anyway. I have had people ask before but I am not sure if they ever actually translated them.

Have you ever co-written a fic before? No but I have spoken about it with @481boxboxbaby unfortunately I am disastrously disorganised so I don’t know if I should really inflict that on other people 😂 I do think it would be fun to have a fic with a set up and then multiple authors taking a chapter each to write the scenario from various drivers points of view. That would take a lot of organising though.

What's your all-time favorite ship? Lestappen

What's a WIP that you want to finish but don't think you ever will?There are so many of them, I have a folder full of random wips that will likely never be finished. At the moment I am fighting my way to try and finish a cowboy Max au one shot, I have started it and deleted it soooo many times, I will finish it though, it’s just not clicking right now! 

What are your writing strengths? I guess maybe just having a certain level of creativity when it comes to coming up with ideas. That can also be my downfall because there are too many ideas pinging around for me to concentrate on one! 

What are your writing weaknesses? I always say that my writing style is more about a general vibe rather than it being grammatically correct 😬

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic? I’ve personally never done it. I’d have to use google translate and I wouldn’t trust that it would read properly.

What was the first fandom you wrote for? F1

What's a fandom/ship you haven't written for yet but want to?Charles/Oscar or Max/Rico Verhoeven. I will get around to writing them eventually

What's your favorite fic you've written? It’s probably recency bias but the fic I am writing and posting right now “Preloved” is probably my favourite. I think it's also super encouraging when people are commenting and enjoying the story so it has made the whole thing more enjoyable. I will definitely be writing some more multi chaptered fics going forward. Of the one shots maybe The Sweetest Deal because it plays into my love of babygirl Max.
