Fic Title Meme!

I’m stealing this from @tallmatcha​ because it looks fun. Go look at her stuff (esp her art! I’m still not over those thistles, URGH). Mostly doing this because I’m hitting a wall on everything I’m writing right now, it’s 1 am and.... what is sleep? What is sanity?

What Will it Take? -  (One Piece) Sanami Fluff

1. How many are you happy with?

Six out of Nine! I’m not unhappy with the other ones, per se, but they’re a bit too explicit (more detail below). The current SasuSaku Modern AUs that are on-going just fell into my lap because they’re fusion fics, and I’ll Do It was planned from the very very very beginning. I debated Three Rules with a last minute change (I toyed with That Damned Blindfold but stuck with it in the end), and Chocolate, Strawberries and Whipped Cream was... well it was the obvious choice. Although in retrospect I kind of wish I chose Dessert lol. Heaven was my favourite happy accident. 

2. How many are…not great?

Like I said, not unhappy, but... 

System, the Host Forgot Her Mission was setting up for something but now I’m not suuuuper sure it makes sense any more. I’ll deal with it when I get there, lol

Spoken Form the Heart (or Thereabouts) - I’m not sure I’m happy with the parenthesis, but you can’t have a Sanji x Nami ficlet collection and not insert some of Sanji the horndog, lmao

What Will It Take? - I honestly just could not think of a title, so I went with my working title, which still mostly gets the point across?

3. How many did you scramble for at the last minute?

.Three Rules was almost a scramble, but I stuck with it. I usually start with a working title, but if I’ve written something particularly clever or played up a trope while I’m writing, I will change the title to be more on point. What Will It Take was one of the ones that stuck with the working title, while Heaven was my happy accident - I originally just ended the fic with Nami in Sanji’s arms and him calling that home, but the fic was a bit short (under 1K), and I was already thinking of Nami’s revenge for Three Rules, soooooooo... I asked myself how could I make it even more fluffy, and then Heaven happened. Spoken was Corru and me batting it around in the R/Fanfiction server (He wasn’t the one who suggested the parenthesis, I added that when I published, and that’s the part I’m kind of annoyed with).

4. How many did you know before you started writing/creating, or near the beginning?

I am an incurable plotter, so I had a working title for most everything. For something like Spoken, though, the working title was “50 Drabble Prompts” which wasn’t publishable. Most everything else I use as a working title is publishable, but sometimes I quite enjoy my own ingenuity when I’m writing, so. (Hear that? that’s the sound of my ego suffocating my city)

5. How many are quotes from songs or poems?

None... I don’t actually go fishing into songs or poems for titles, although I probably should

6. How many are other quotes?

A Tiny Smirk is Devastating and The Words I Want to Hear are both cribbed from the original CNovel I’m fusing on - does that count?

7. Which best reflects the plot of the story/content of the fanwork?

Hmmmm plot wise? That’s hard. Probably The Words I Want to Hear, mostly because you’ll notice that each chapter title references the words someone really wants to hear that chapter, but they’re never actually said, hehehe. Spoiler alert: one of the future chapters is titled “I Love You”. Everyone be prepared to scream.

8. Which best reflects the theme of the story?

Oh, oh, this has GOT to be I’ll Do It. I was actually trying to have the POV character say a variation on that theme for all the chapters until I went on hiatus and forgot about it, lol. But yes, that story is all about choices and agency, especially when it comes to love. See if you can spot all the references for funsies.

9. Which best reflects the character voice of the story/pov of the fanwork?

Three Rules - It’s a very prim and proper title to a very naughty fic and totally captures Nami’s revenge, muahahah.

10. Which is your favourite title?

Which is my favourite child? Break my heart, why don’t you?

(It’s totally Heaven)

I tag @probably-peridot to do this next!

Hey i absolutely adore your blog and your writing is *chefs kiss* 💕💖💕 i wanted to know what your fave ships are and if you have any notps? I wanna write something and im rather new in the fandom and it would be cool to talk it out with someone i guess? But i dont wanna spook u with any pairings you dont like?

oooh hello and welcome~!! Thank you for the kindly words, and fuck yeah, hit me up anytime. 😁😁😁 If you’ve read my fics you know my favs heheh: Anybody/Marco basically, but obviously I lovelovelove MAS with all my heart. I don’t think I really have notps except like, underage shit. I def do have my preferences though!! that’s… more a process of continuous discovery, but let’s just say the rule of thumb is, if the ship contains any of the following themes i’m very easily sold: sacrifice, fealty, worship, duality/mirroring/shadowing, power play, potentials for rituals….

And I’m 100% into most poly ships :O The more…. the better….

But okay let me try to be a little more helpful and give you specifics lmfao. Under the cut ‘cause shit got long.

All my favs! Luffy is playful chill asexual to me, and he’s so ready to like anyone y’know? Zoro… i’m down to ship him with anyone but it’s gotta come with a compelling case for why he’s fixating on them and not his swords (hence why ZoLu is peak priority there, but not something i thirst for). Nami can and will bang, i lovelovelove flirty Nami, Nami going soft for a dorky-but-strong-willed woman.

For the popular ships there—I was never into LawLu, but I’m not averse? This is 100% my ignorance speaking but I just don’t know what more of a story you can get out of them besides Luffy-is-bright-and-Law-deals-with-that. I can be in the mood for that, but not often. After WCI i got a whole lot of real estate in my heart for Sanji/Luffy i gotta admit. Haven’t headed down that rabbit hole but i’m ready to. ZoSan has its moments, but I do not believe in the “wow they yell at each other all the time they must actually be in love” take at all; if i’m gonna read ZoSan it better be seriously dealing with their vitriol, all the things they genuinely cannot stand about each other, and then still offer up good reasons they’d wanna be together lol. Or just, y’know, reframe that vitriol convincingly. I just don’t wanna read about how people who yell at each other all day are doing it out of love.

I… could genuinely be very into SaNami. I think they have very interesting gender dynamics! Nami out there being swindling swashbuckling no good thief and ocean science PhD and fucking cartographer, Sanji being in the kitchen. Nami cares for people by providing them cash and gold, Sanji cares for people by providing them food. I… have very mixed opinions on Sanji (as many do), but the idea of him with Nami? Him snapping out of that fanciful grand romantic schtick and getting serious with one person? And the idea of Nami being soft for her crew, and Sanji being the one out of the Monster Trio who needs the most protecting?

…I just think it’s neat. Anyways.

Ace!!!!! Who don’t I ship him with. I had a whole Ace/Nami moment skjdfksd but just casual fuck buddies and mainline NamiVivi (which is aces, pun intended). Chromi’s showed me the way, and I have Novel A unread still sitting on my desk but Ace/Deuce is fantastic. SanAce? I’m here for it. Smoker/Ace is a bit of a relic but hell, it’s great. Anything poetic i’m almost always already into.

Sabo!! Motherfucker. Again, who don’t I ship him with. People started me on that SaboLaw train a little bit ago, and they’d be the bitchiest duo to write. SaboKoala is fucking amazing, I love them as trauma buddies dealing with Very Stressful Lives together. Lucky brought up SaboKoalaAce and that really hits my whole heart with a baseball bat in the best way. Also SaboDeuce???????? Fucking hell, that’s a Whole Clusterfuck, but a brilliant one.

…I really do mean it when I say I’ll ship Marco with anyone. Anyone. Some people… wish I wouldn’t…

….Okay except Dadbeard. That’s father, I can’t really go in for that.

Ummmmm that’s pretty much all I got for now! Seriously hit me up with more specifics, just to chat~~~ 💖💖i’m… a mess, but i’m a friendly one :D
