#10, #19 and #30 for the Writers' Ask, please

Writer's ask game

10. Do you set yourself deadlines?

No. Sometimes I have deadlines, but that's because I'm writing for something like a character birthday or a fandom event. But I rarely choose to have them.

19. How do you keep yourself motivated?

I just answered that one here!

30. Favourite idea you haven’t started on yet

Oh hmm interesting this is difficult because is creating a document with the name of the idea "starting" on it? because if an idea is something i want to write that's happened.

Ummm of the blank empty documents I have though, I think the project I am most excited about is the placeholder document for when I get around to writing the sherlouis RPF thing with nikiforova. I am going to get to write fanfiction & then leave comments as though I'm Sherlock writing fanfiction. I've got a whole pseud on AO3 and everything and I think it's going to be glorious. Also will be a fun way to explore the fan-community and the friendships we make along the way.

A snippet from OLSSM, please! I love that story.

Ask and you shall receive!

Chapter 54 takes a pause from overall Hogwarts shenanigans and checks in on some forgotten characters.

A door opened and closed elsewhere in the house; Pegasus sauntered into the kitchen soon after and made a beeline for his overly posh coffee maker.

“Just admit it that you’re terrible at this game,” said Tristan.

Joey huffed and dealt out the playing cards once more.

“Hm, and what are you two up to on this beautifully gloomy morning?” asked Pegasus, “are we skipping school in favor of card games?”

He glanced at the table and gasped dramatically. “And not even Duel Monsters! Oh, my heart!”

Joey snickered and picked up his new hand. “The world don’t revolve around Duel Monsters ya know.”

Tristan’s jaw dropped. He didn’t even pick up his cards and folded his arms across his chest. “Oh no? Says the guy who took his duel disk to school every day! What was that you used to say all the time about a duelist always being prepared?”

He smirked at the new scowl forming on Joey’s face and turned to Pegasus. “Joey doesn’t want to admit it’s his turn to clean the bathroom, so he’s banking on using cards to get out of it. Only it’s not working.”

“…I see. And as always, so glad to see that after all the work I had done to assure that life could continue as normal, your study room continues to go ignored.”

“It’s not ignored, Téa’s in it being responsible enough for th’ three of us put together,” said Joey. “Besides, she don’t like doing the online school thing with us. Apparently we’re ‘too distracting’.”

Pegasus eyed the cards again. “…I couldn’t fathom why.”

#absolutely#I can buy seto refusing to do chores#now that he doesn't have to#but for the first 10 years of his life#he would have had to learn at least some basics#probably from a young age#he also promises in all versions to be mokuba's father#that probably included things#like brushing his hair#making sure he washed his face#and teaching him to tie his shoes (via: @nenya85​ )

YES HE promises to be Moki’s father!! that includes house things and making sure he’s presentable!!! personally i like the idea of mokuba’s hair being difficult to brush so it made hair brushing sessions suffering for both of them and that’s why mokuba’s hair is so long lol

Hot take time but i personally very much dislike the fanon/joke that seto doesn't/can't cook at least basic meals or do laundry or basic household shit

Keep reading

Giving Up The Ghosts By Nenya85

Fandom: Yu-Gi-Oh! Word Count: 266,598

The front cover of both of these is inspired by the swirling gold pattern on the back of the Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. And we have the Millennium Puzzle on the back of the cover as well as holding the chapter numbers for each chapter.

I found fonts inspired by the cards to use for titling and the block quotes at the start of each chapter.

These books were my first time working with HTV and I ended up having to make a new case for the first attempt as I proved a bit overzealous in my application of heat.

I loved the marbled mauve paper that I found for the end pages of these it fit perfectly with the color scheme I had come up with for the books and it gave me something to color match with when picking my thread for the headbands.

[nenya85]

"Life After Life" - Updated

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! I hope this is a treat and not a trick!

Preview of Chapter 26:

Atem's face turned ashen. "Is that what you really think of me? That I'm some pathetic, ignoble creature that could be bought with pools and beer and KaibaLand vacations?" "No!" "Don't lie to me, Seto," Atem pleaded. "Not in this." "I can't buy you. Sometimes I wish I could because then, I'd be sure. I'd pay any amount to keep you by my side, but it's just my luck, you're beyond price."

Fic: A River in Egypt, by @nenya85 Fandom: Yugioh!

[kaiba voice] MIRU KA II! ENDPAPERS FROM JOANN'S!! WAHAHA!!

Nenya is an icon in Yugioh fandom - and an adored friend <3 It was time she got to hold a hard copy of all her hard work in her hands. Working on these books over the past few weeks has brought me insane joy, and I'm so proud of how these turned out - they are #5 and #6 in my current book tally, and I learned a pile while working on them.

The covers are silk moire in black, gold, and a sandy white, while the blue is Japanese book cloth. The body of this text is set in 10.5 point Perpetua font, with accents in Skandal and Aquifer.

Some additional details below the cut:

Every chapter in this fic starts with a little meditation/vignette on the five stages of grief...

So I translated each of the five stages into their hieroglyphic equivalents (using either direct translation or good-enough approximations - I think the word I used for "bargaining" actually means "to exchange or trade.")

I also managed to split the fic exactly in half, into two volumes of 17 chapters each. Volume I is 216 pages; Volume II is 208 pages. In other words, the volumes are both balanced in their chapter count and almost identical in their widths, a testament to Nenya's skill and consistency as a writer.

[winxhelina]

~10 (give or take) blorbos, fandoms, tags 1. Stella from Winx Club

2. Harley Quinn from DC

3. Barbie not so much from the Margot Robbie movie as much as from the animated movies, magazines, books I had as a kid as well as Life in The Dreamhouse.

3. Wei Wuxian from Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation

4. Lan Wangji from Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation

5. Wind Master Shi Qingxuan from Heaven Official's Blessing

6. Bloom from Winx Club

7. Mokuba Kaiba from Yu-Gi-Oh!

8. Elizabeth Midford from Kuroshitsuji

9. Sherlock Holmes (various iterations)

10. Snufkin from The Moomins

11. Xie Lian from Heaven Official's Blessing

It said give or take, okay? So 11 is fine... This was literally so hard. You have no idea. If you wanted me to list 10 shows or fandoms, it would be easy, but characters? It's so much harder. Who do I pick? Who do I leave out? I tried to think of characters who are near and dear to my heart. Who either have deeply influenced me my whole entire life or played a big part in it or whom I just love deeply and wholly. It was so hard to pick Yu-Gi-Oh! characters and Winx Club characters especially. I also deeply and seriously considered adding Carrie Bradshaw into the list and I could not leave Xie Lian out so he is 11.

Thank you @sarasade for tagging me and giving a minor existential crisis. I tag @wellamarke @hergan416 @nenya85 @marketstallinghostcity

Returning to the MAS egglaying angst thing that is currently just a smut one shot that I fully stopped working on when the MTP thing hit

Finishing the Tattoo Kaiba fic finally what the FUCK hergan I STARTED WRITING THE FIC WITH THIS CHAPTER

16. What's your most common "additional tags" tag?

From this year? Oh hell, you are asking the tough questions aren't you? 😂

Sibling Incest

20. What work of yours have you reread the most?

Probably Poison Paradise: just trying to get things right for each subsequent chapter and not lose track of what has already happened. Plus, I reread the chapter a comment is on each time I get a comment, but with the comment in mind, and that fic has a million and a half comments. (This work is Explcit with a focus on sherlouis, but also has a sidepairing of alwill.. which some readers may find incestuous -- hey look we're back to question 16 even if this one doesn't have the tag.)

[dxmichelle]

#17 and #18 for the YGO Fandom Ask, please

17 was answered here!

18. A random headcanon: Post-series, Ryou spends a few years traveling abroad as an archaeologist. Wearing the Millennium Ring for so long gave him a sixth sense when it came to cursed artifacts.

He eventually switches focus to his love of tabletop gaming to run online Monster World campaigns.

4. The Price for Fire - Your name is Jake English, and you have never in your life been so grateful to see a roadsign.
