#obikin addition for me

[somethingsteff]

Trope selection tag game

Thanks @underacalicosky for tagging me! This'll be so much fun! 💖💖💖💖 I'm going to use obikin for my responses (to no one's surprise).

💖 enemies to lovers or friends to lovers - I love both of these so much. I think I'm going to have to go with friends to lovers, but I love them bickering so that's gotta be part of the friendship too. There's just something about everyone else around them knowing that they're in love with each other (though I also really love that in an enemies to lovers fic).

💖 coffee shop au or flower shop au - I love a coffee shop au! I love Obi-Wan going to a coffee shop for his tea fix just because there's the cute guy (Anakin, obvs) who always takes his order and draws little doodles on his cup. Or an Obi-Wan who, again, doesn't really like the taste of coffee but he loves the smell so he's actually really good at managing the coffee shop he owns that Anakin basically lives in. I will say, though, that Calico had a really good argument for a flower shop au in their post. So in that spirit, imagine a flower shop au where Anakin hates flowers (so me, that's why coffee shop will win every time for me) but applies for a job at the flower shop he passes on his way to campus when he sees the help wanted sign, all because he's had a crush on the hot owner (Obi-Wan) since it opened. A few months into Obi-Wan finds out that Anakin hates flowers and asks why he applied in the first place. Anakin's brain shorts out and tells him the truth. They date (and fuck) about it.

💖 hurt/comfort or there was only one bed - Only one bed by a landslide. I'm in a place in life where, if I had to choose, there would be little to no hurt in anything I read.

💖 found family or partners in crime - I love these both so much, but I'm going to have to go with found family. I'm obsessed with Obi-Wan and Anakin being Ahsoka’s dads, and found family just means so much to me in general.

💖 canon compliant or canon divergent - Has to be canon divergent because obikin deserves a happy ending. There can be compliant stuff there, but I need that happy ending.

💖 fluff or angst with a happy ending - I'm going to have to go with fluff. I can get through angst with a happy ending, but depending on how much angst and if it's all posted or if I have to wait and stew on it until an update it's actually really hard for me. I probably sound like such a weenie. Lol.

💖 1st person POV or 3rd person POV - 3rd person for sure.

💖 soulmates or forbidden love - I love a good soulmates/soulmark fic! So soulmates.

💖 roommates or fake dating - Calico cheated so I'm going to, too. Roommates who are fake dating is also my answer. 🤣

💖 slow burn or meet-cute - I'm all about that meet-cute!

💖 love triangle or polyamorous relationship - If I had to pick one I'd go with a poly relationship, but neither are really my thing.

💖 royalty au or magic au - I love a royalty au!

💖 high school/college au or neighbours au - I'm going to cheat again and say a neighbors au where Anakin's in college, or they're both in high school, or Anakin's in high school and Obi-Wan's in college, or something.

💖 mutual pining or idiots to lovers - I honestly kind of think they're the same thing. But I'll go with idiots to lovers.

I have no idea who's already played, but my no pressure tags are: @loycspotting @starpains @unspuncreature @kingdomvel @kenobisrightboot

SV Star Wars AU where Shen Yuan transmigrates into a proxy for Padme.

I know the Obikin vibes are really strong with Bingqiu, but hear me out:

Shen Qingqiu is the fourteen-year-old(?!?!) King Elect (?!?!?!) of Qing Jing, a planet from the Cang Qiong sector that has been facing issues with the Trade Federation and has petitioned the Jedi Order for help.

"Shen Qingqiu" is also a role played by several similar-looking fourteen-year-old boys, except where Padme and her handmaids were all from more or less the same background, most of the servants conscripted for the Shen Qingqiu role are downtrodden slaves basically cast as expendable bodyguards, whose main advantage in this deal is that after Shen Qingqiu finishes his term as King then they get to go free.

Meaning, Shen Yuan and Shen Jiu are both expendable body doubles for the "real" Shen Qingqiu (in this case, Qiu Jianluo going by his royal name, with the "qiu" being deliberate rather than accidental).

Additional fun possibility: Qiu Jianluo has actually been dead since the trouble with the Trade Federation first escalated, and Shen Yuan and Shen Jiu have basically been Weekend At Bernie's-ing him because there's no time to elect a new king and if the Trade Federation's blockade isn't broken, everyone's immediate prospects are extremely bleak (and the odds of the Shens being sent to some prison camp instead of granted their freedom is very high).

Another additional fun possibility: the Trade Federation didn't actually kill Qiu Jianluo, Shen Jiu did, so not only do they have to maintain the charade, they also have to look for opportunities to drop Qiu Jianluo's corpse down a reactor core or something and make it look like he's died during the conflict in order to prevent any investigations that will look into pesky things like "time of death" or "how many stab wounds there are".

In the midst of all this, of course, there is the main plot of PIDW/SW, wherein Shen Qingqiu was originally one of several antagonists to excessively bully and dismay Jedi prodigy and future Chosen One Luo Binghe, a poor slave boy living on an ice planet and trying to win enough money via dangerous pod races to buy medicine for his dying mother. Featuring also young Jedi knights Liu Qingge and Yue Qi (the latter of whom seems to have some history with Shen Jiu...?), admittedly kickass Sith apprentice Mobei Jun, a certain future Chancellor from the Huan Hua sector, and sentient Sith holocron Meng Mo. And Airplane, probably as an up-and-coming member of the Jedi AgriCorps who basically has Count Dooku's plot duties (turn traitor and get killed) but is somehow also thoroughly entangled with Mobei Jun.

hi!. first of all, i'm absolutely obsessed with your blog, thank you for posting, i've never felt so validated reading someone's posts before. i'm currently falling deeply into the star wars abyss and i was wondering if you could recommend any books you personally liked (the angstier the better)? i'm a complete fandom newbie, so far I've only seen movies and clone wars season one, but id love to hear your opinion on what I should read next. if it's not a weird request. sorry if it is! have a nice day.

WAAAAH thank you so much!!! So glad you’re here and I’m SO HAPPY to recommend books to you because I was exactly in your position only a few months ago!

Okay. So the consensus within the fandom, especially if you’re an Obikin enjoyer (not sure if you are, but if you’re following me I suspect you at least find their platonic dynamic compelling), is that if you’re going to read one book it’s the Revenge of the Sith novelization by Matt Stover, and I agree with this. I’m not someone who was ever interested in reading movie novelizations but this book single handedly changed my mind. It’s exceptionally well written and just has this pervasive sense of growing doom that’s super unsettling while also giving a lot of emotional dimension to all of the characters in ways that film really isn’t able to. There’s a lot of interesting choices that are made—Anakin’s fall feels explicitly like Palpatine is taking advantage of an oncoming mental health episode and pushing him to snap, Anakin’s perception of the Obi-Wan/Padmé affair is tied more to anxieties about the two people he loves most not wanting him around than infidelity…there’s a lot of scenes that are in the book that aren’t in the movie that really just hit like a gut punch.

It’s absolutely great for angst, it’s written in such a unique way and literally the last scene gave me full body chills when I first read it. Horrible, beautiful, highly recommend it. Also uses second person narration in ways that are very clever.

(Also, it like…portrays Obi-Wan as like. A repressed gay monk in love with his oblivious straight friend and it’s incredible)

Now for my more personal recommendations for after you read that, if you want more!

I am a massive Rogue Planet and Jedi Quest enjoyer. They are honestly the cornerstones of my characterizations for these characters. Despite being a singular book and a middle grade series respectively, I group them in the same category for their absolutely incredibly compelling way it portrays the foundation of Anakin and Obi-Wan’s relationship—specifically how absolutely fucked it is in ways that aren’t super clear in the movies. They take place after the Phantom Menace and before AOTC, so cover Anakin’s time as Obi-Wan’s padawan.

Rogue Planet by Greg Bear follows Obi-Wan and Anakin on a mission when Anakin is 12 and there’s no way I can describe it other than it reading kind of like…what if the Virgin Mary was a permissive boymom who sucked at her job and the kid she’s raising has a 50/50 chance at being Jesus or Satan. Obi-Wan in this reads like the most 15 year old 28 year old ever, is still reeling from the death of Qui-Gon and has entered the motherhood phase of “my child is perfect and special and can do no wrong ever ever ever”. He’s extremely permissive and has hinged an unsettling amount of his hopes on Anakin’s role as the Chosen One because of his own personal issues. So when Anakin does shit like…oh I don’t know…accidentally explodes a man’s head with his mind…does things he isn’t supposed to Obi-Wan is like. Don’t Worry You Did Nothing Wrong I Will Ignore It.

And then hot on the tails of this is the Jedi Quest series by Jude Watson which follows their relationship after that on various missions as Anakin grow up. The series kind of focuses on the systemic ways in which Anakin leading up to AOTC was let down and what eventually drives his decisions later. Do not be fooled by it being a series for 12 year olds, it’s absolutely apeshit and additionally my favorite place for informing my perspective of their dynamic. Obi-Wan has gone from being boymom to being more emotionally distant as he tries to make Anakin be an “ideal jedi”. Jude Watson’s entire thesis is that like, Obi-Wan is not father brother or friend to Anakin, he is a Jedi, and does not have the tools to be anything else so his and Anakin needs and wants more. There’s this insane line at the end of book one where Anakin says like “Obi-Wan would come to love him. He would make him do so” which just acts as the through line for the entire series. the push and pull between someone who wants more and someone who consistently holds back creates this very unhealthy master-disciple dynamic that drives me insane. (I have kind of an uncharitable perspective of Obi-Wan because of this but it’s actually what made me love him even more, I prefer Jude Watson’s portrayal of him to almost any other author)

Anyways that’s my long drawn out first 3 recommendations to you lol! If you like them (or if you don’t!) feel free to come back and I’d be happy to chat with you more <33

[cottonraincoat]

okay the time has come I cannot procrastinate this any longer:

Obikin Big Bang beta: help needed!!

tl;dr: I'm writing a big bang fic about Obi-Wan and Anakin figure skating, they're also respectively aromantic and asexual, it'll probably end up ~60k, I would be suuuper grateful if someone could help me look through the final-ish draft, for grammar and spelling, over the next two-ish months.

ALTERNATIVELY if anyone is happy to just chat about either figure skating, or the disaster aro/aceness of these boys, I would also love that very much please hmu!!!

--- more stuff under the cut ---

working title: figure skating?? (as it's called in the docs)

rating: T

wc: 60k (12 * 5k chapters- a rough estimate)

some tags: Alternate Universe- Modern AU, Asexual Anakin Skywalker, Aromantic Obi-Wan Kenobi, Internalized Aphobia, Getting Together, Queerplatonic Relationships, Slow Burn, Angst and Fluff, Inspired by Yuri On Ice (sort of)

This is my first big bang, I've not written with a beta before, and I've certainly not tried to finish anything this long before. so, whew: leaning curve! I'm at the point where I'm producing chapter drafts which are close to their final versions, but also debating the details of some scenes and descriptions. And so, I'd like some help with the following things:

good old grammar and spelling! (I changed the whole thing from past to present tense at some point so there may be slip ups) this will be hopefully just a final pass of a version of the draft that won't change very much, a draft I'll hopefully produce at some point, incrementally, between now and the end of september :'D

skating stuff: I am a casual fan of the sport, so between a pandemic-years-old youtube rabbit hole and tearing my hair out trying to read ISU documentation, I'm still trying to figure out "how skate". (I thought I was in pretty deep but iceberg always goes deeper.) I'd sleep a lot easier if anyone who knows more than me about skating would be willing to give the skating descriptions (up to 10k max) a read through to check for realism.

aroace stuff: this is a big one. It's arguably even more important to me to get this right than the skating. In addition to being a disaster aspec myself, I've been trying to read up a bit, but that still leaves some gaps between my knowledge/experience and the experiences of these characters in the fic. Which is why I would really really like a second pair of eyes on some of the scenes and characterisations.

60k is like, a lot of words and I am still slowly being forced out of denial about it so I know that even a spag check is a big ask. But honestly, anything is appreciated, whether you could help me with Obi-Wan's aro-allo-ness, or figure out how to people three whole Grand Prix events. As for contact, here, or discord, or anywhere you know me will be fine!

Now let's call it at that, before this post gets any longer. If you've read till here- thank you already!

Fic Reveal - the taste is oh so sweet

I can finally reveal the fic I wrote for this round of @topwan-obikin Fest!

Rating: M

Length: 3209 words

Warnings: None

Relationships: Obi-Wan Kenobi/Anakin Skywalker

Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Vampire Obi-Wan Kenobi, Obi-Wan Kenobi's Catholic Guilt, Obi-Wan Kenobi is Bad at Self-Care, POV Anakin Skywalker, Blood Drinking, Vampire Bites, Mutual Pining, Anakin Skywalker Has a Vagina

Summary:

Obi-Wan’s unimpressed glare wasn’t enough to shake Anakin’s resolve, nor was the purse of his frown, the way he folded his arms tightly over his chest, or how he looked seconds away from biting Anakin’s head off. Anakin knew what he had to do. What they had to do. He just hoped his racing pulse didn’t betray his true feelings. “I want you to feed from me directly.” - Obi-Wan hasn't taken very well to his new diet after becoming a vampire. He would rather suffer in silence. Anakin won't let him.

[lady-evelin]

something i would love to read is age play obikin with little obi-wan 🥺

Look! Your prompt really got me thinking because I have no experience in the area, but I'll do my best ✨

It took me a while to answer this question because I started researching. 😊

If you want to change something or this wasn't what you were referring to, let me know. I will try to finish it as soon as possible.😘

New edit

There was something extremely satisfying about a person depending on you.

Anakin knew this perfectly well. Now that his master was completely dependent on him.

At first, it bothered him a little since all this was new to him.

They had just returned to the temple after a mission went wrong.

Catastrophically wrong.

His master found a Sith artifact hidden at the bottom of some ruins.

It was only a second, Anakin was distracted for just a moment, and Obi-Wan was no longer by his side. Anakin was already used to that, but what scared him was feeling how his master's bond was extinguished.

Anakin panicked, afraid that something would happen to his master. He ran in search of him, finding him all the way to the bottom of the cave, looking everywhere confused.

Anakin didn't care about his finding; he was more worried about his master, who didn't say anything to him, he was like gone, so he took him to the Jedi temple as soon as possible.

He didn't even take the time to go to the council to report what happened, the seconds seemed tortuous until they told him that he had his master.

Apparently, the Sith artifact had somehow altered Obi-Wan's mind, bringing him back to the age of a child.

Anakin couldn't believe it; it all seemed like a joke since Obi-Wan was the same as always, he hadn't changed at all, but his doubts were dispelled when he saw how Obi-Wan behaved in a childish way.

The council, upon learning of this, quickly arrived at the healing rooms and tried to isolate Obi-Wan to find a cure and not put him in danger, as they did not know what intentions the Sith artifact had.

But Obi-Wan widened his grayish eyes as he heard how he would be isolated, running to where Anakin was and grabbing him tightly by the arm, avoiding being separated.

After a while, they tried to make Obi-Wan come to his senses, but they did not succeed by making the respected Jedi pout several times in a threat to cry, so the best option was for Anakin to take care of his master in his rooms and report every progress.

In addition, the missions and exits from the temple are suspended for the two of them until Obi-Wan returns to normal.

Anakin didn't hear any of this; his mind was running wild at the display of possessiveness that Obi-Wan showed to everyone in the room.

Despite his confused state, Obi-Wan chose him!

[bunnywan]

i guess to me it feels weird when i see you or your group of friends liking vader or thinking he’s fucking “serving cunt” or whatever it is when it’s still anakin….. there’s literally a fascist underneath (it probably is you guys just trolling and i’m misreading it as genuine) but about the not liking your friend’s bf thing: if i don’t like my friend’s bf i don’t tolerate anything about him or even waste a thought on him just because my friend “loves” him and i get that you can’t really separate obi-wan from his presence in anakin’s life but hey it’s fiction anyway like you can fucking rewrite star wars if you wanted to

… are you under the impression that after anakin becomes vader i lose all of my former opinions about him and suddenly like him ? i have no idea where you’re getting that from. he’s the same dude in a different outfit to me.

star wars isn’t real. anakin isn’t real. his crimes against humanity aren’t real! i’m not running a blog about mussolini. that’s why me and my friends joke about him (yes we are joking). if you decide for yourself that you’re not into that, that’s fine! but like … i’m not sure what you want from me ?

also it’s weird that i’m the person you’re coming to with this. your problem seems to lie with engaging with anakin at all, and while i do write fic about him, i’m an obikin author that doesn’t do the “pls don’t remind me my poor pathetic meow meow babygirl is a facist. it makes me feel yucky😖” thing. so like. why me ?

not gonna lie you got a big laugh out of me with “thinking vader is fucking serving cunt or whatever” even tho i don’t think i’ve ever said that. genuinely lost my shit for a minute.

(eta: here’s the original ask for more context if anyones wondering — with some great additions in the notes)

Not Made To Last [AO3 | Obikin | ✔ ]

The last chapter of Not Made To Last has just been posted.

This means, the story has a total of 53k words, which is bad news for me, to be honest. This fic was a personal challenge to write a 30k fic. Suffice to say; I didn't make it.

Nevertheless, I enjoyed the project. The only thing left to do is to finally bake those cardamom buns (and I will, I already bought the ground cardamom).

And I would also like to apologize for the delay with the last chapter. In my defense, I had quite the week.

Synopsis:

Anakin's going into heat, which is a complication he can't afford during his final mission with Obi-Wan. Therefore, he'll do anything to hide his preheat from Obi-Wan. After Anakin's ultimate betrayal, another lie can't deteriorate their abysmal relationship anyway.

Never mind that this mentality cost him Obi-Wan's regard and his Padawan in the first place.

So, it shouldn't be surprising that his approaching heat becomes the least of his problems. How is Anakin supposed to hide he's turning into a harpie? Soon, Anakin's lies will no longer support the fragile truce they have struck.

Two years after the end of the Clone Wars and the unmasking of Sidious' identity, Obi-Wan and Anakin are in what other people would call their 'honeymoon phase'. It would be better if they'd actually listened to Mace's advice and took a vacation months ago instead of thinking about it now, for the all the other Jedi peace of mind. After all, Obi-Wan (and half the jedi council) is about to discover what an half asleep, half horny Anakin is capable of to keep the attention of his Master on him all day long. Or, what happens when Anakin calls Obi-Wan 'daddy' in public and pretends to not know what he's doing.

Forgot to post this here!! The first chapter of my second fic for @topwan-obikin is up, and hopefully the second chapter will be done soon! I'm halfway done with it so,,, i will update soonish.

Hope you like it!! Let me know <33

Hey y’all. A couple of questions as I’m still trying to decide on signing up (these might be dumb questions, but here I am. Knowledge is power, and maybe more knowledge will help me fully commit - I’m kind of a newb when it comes to writing fanfic/participating in events, so this would be my first time 🥹).

1) are you accepting more plot-driven fic (as opposed to smut)? ((I’m sure there will be plenty of smut within my story, but my idea has a lot of lore and plotlines to it, as well))

2) is it a problem if I sign up with a word count and then during the process, my fic ends up being way longer than the word count I signed up with? (I am known to be verbose. I think 10K is a doable length, but I’m also good at underestimating the length of my work 😅)

Regardless of my own signup status, I’m so glad y’all are doing this, and I think it’s very exciting! I think, in addition to getting to work on and publish a new Obikin work, it would be a great opportunity to get more involved in this side of the fandom and meet fellow Obikinnies!! So I’m very, very seriously considering! Thank you!

Hey! We're glad to read your excitement about the event 💖 (also, no question is ever dumb in our books, so ask as many questions as you have. Knowledge is power 😉)

1) Any ratio of plot to smut is accepted. You could even write a completely G rated, smut free, entirely plot driven, family friendly fic and it would be perfectly welcomed to the Big Bang.

2) We understand word count can change, as sometimes you have an idea but that idea grows and more words are needed. As long as you write the minimum 10,000 words, then is fine if your initial number changes. For this event, the number of words you write is not set in stone.

Thank you for your interest in the event! And remember you can sign up in more than one role if you so desire!

[fishnamedsushi]

I am late to this because I've been super busy and I don't think I've ever done one of these before but thank you @dark--whisperings and @demon----dean for the tag! I really appreciate it!

Here goes....

3 ships: Oof, this is hard to answer haha. I go through phases and have shipped so many pairings, but right now it would probably be Obikin (Obi-Wan Kenobi/Anakin Skywalker), Dinluke (Din Djarin/Luke Skywalker) and Kylux (Kylo Ren/Armitage Hux)

first ever ship: I honestly don't remember lol! But I guess I started rabidly reading fanfic back when the Avengers first came out and I got really into Stony (Steve Rogers/Tony Stark). And then came Hannigram (Hannibal Lecter/Will Graham) and I was deep into it and never got back out again.

last song: I Hate Love by Garbage - it's good vibes for a fic I am writing

last movie: Barbie

currently reading: I have a hard time reading too much when I am in writing mode, but I am slowly working my way through Like Real People Do by glimmerglanger. I love it and have read it many, many times!

currently watching: Ahsoka (obv). Also just finished Good Omens S2 (don't talk to me) and re-watch of OFMD in preparation of the new season next week.

currently consuming: wine as inspiration to write

currently craving: the ability to take all my ideas and turn them into fics instead of endless additions to my prompts doc.

tag 9 people you want to know better: (no pressure!!)

Ah, I think most everyone has already been tagged probably, but just in case, hello there @jedibongrip, @tennessoui, @dinagastuff especially because I saw recent posts about work from them and I 👀👀👀

[jessequinnfirstofhername]

A little late perhaps but how fun with controversial Star Wars opinions! Sticking to a controversial-on-tumblr context here and have to say that I don't see where people shipping Obi-Wan as a any type of dom in any type of ship are coming from 🤔. Be it codywan, obikin, obidala, obitine, bailobi, quiobi, quinobi, maulobi and so forth. He was a little stern in AoTC and is both capable and lethal in what he does, but idk is that it? It just seems to me like he's not very into bossing people around, or having the commanding role in any context - yet it's such a popular interpretation 😱 (haven't seen TCW admittedly so Obes might've scored loads of dom-points there 🙏). Sorry, if that was more of a fandom opinion I'll go with the Holdo maneuver in TLJ being incredibly cool and people complaining are insane.

Controversial Star Wars Opinions are always welcome here, 24/7. It’s a permanent fixture of the blog 👍

No need to apologise about anything. If it’s an opinion related to Star Wars that you consider ‘controversial’, it’s a valid addition to the confessional 😉

I do understand why Obi-Wan is so often depicted as a Dom, so I’ll try and explain why it’s so popular, in my opinion.

Obi-Wan really fits into the ‘Soft Dom’ archetype. He’s a figure of authority and a teacher, but he’s calm, patient, and gentle. He can be strict, and he can scold when needed, but he’s always in control.

To explain interpretations where he’s a meaner Dom, it’s really just an exaggeration of the qualities that make him fit the ‘Soft Dom’ category so well.

I don’t think there’s some great jump in disciplinarian behaviour in TCW compared to The Prequels, but James Arnold Taylor kinda makes Obi-Wan sound stricter, so I guess there’s that.

THE HOLDO MANOEUVRE WAS AMAZING!!! YOU’RE RIGHT AND YOU SHOULD SAY IT!!!

…ahem. I mean. Yes, yes. It was quite entertaining.

Incident at Isla Nublar

read it on the AO3 at https://archiveofourown.org/works/52637257 by grapenehi “I realize I had your dick in my hand at the time, but you did promise me co-authorship on a paper.” “You see, Dr. Skywalker, this is exactly the sort of conversation that I requested we not have while standing out in the open of our dig site in the middle of the day.” Anakin laughed again. Obi-Wan wanted to kiss him again. It was sort of becoming a whole thing. Obi-Wan is a paleontologist, Anakin is his single-parent paleobotanist postdoc, and they get an offer to join Count Dooku, Ahsoka, and Maul for a fun weekend in Costa Rica.

1. What fic of yours would you recommend to someone who had never read any of your work? (In other words, what do you think is the best introduction to your fics?)

okay well i feel like this one is very fandom dependent because i write for a lot of fandoms, but if it was a fandom-neutral kinda thing i guess i would probably recommend Lover (Please Prepare for My Absence) or Strands that Bind or everything i hold dear resides in those eyes. they're all from this year but i really feel like i did very well with them, and they're good for showing the range that i have as a writer, i think. (also i know it says just one but i have well over 300 i can't choose just one or it would take me like a year to actually finish answering this T^T).

2. Go to your AO3 “Works” page, to the sidebar with all the filters, and click the drop-down arrow for “Additional Tags.” What are your top 3-5 most used tags? Do you think they accurately represent your writing habits?

incest, sibling incest, and pwp and yeahhhhhhhh tbh. i just can't get away from writing taboo relationships, they compel me

13. Are there any tropes you used to like but don’t anymore?

my tastes tend to get sweeter as i go along in a fandom, but no tropes that i just wholesale don't like anymore!

14. Are there any tropes you would only read if written by a trusted friend or writer?

i can get super sensitive about themes of bigotry, domestic abuse, and infidelity, so i usually skip those unless i know the writer and even then i tend to ask for specifics before i jump into a fic with those. also just not super into shrinking age gaps, but i'll read that for a friend.

17. What highly specific AU do you want to read or write even though you might be the only person to appreciate it?

i was fucking thinking about this the other day, but an obikin taxi driver (the kdrama) au would be like catnip to me and no one else would get it. i cry every day. alternatively an eighthcest/niecest sea of stars au, which again no one else would get. i have a lot of hyperspecific aus tbh
