#only to have a fictional character become an fp for me lmao

[fitzselfships]

(Suspected but at this point it probably straight up is) bpd is so fucked up like I'm sitting here like "Wow I can't wait for ep 3 of tadc so I can finally have more Zooble content!! :D" but then immediately after I'm like "if they give Zooble a canon love interest at any point in this series I will absolutely not be okay"

I would like to thank @leaalda for making these amazing banners.

This is an effort to spread the word about all fan fiction writers in our little fandom. If you would like to be featured or nominate a writer, please contact me. Please reblog this post if you can and check out some of @lusterrdustwork!

1. First things first, if someone wanted to read your stories where can they find them.

I’m active on two sites right now, both Archive of our Own, and Wattpad. My username for both is lusterrdust.

2. Tell us a little about yourself.

Well, I’m a twenty-something year old California girl who has been described by both friends and family to be a personality cross of Rapunzel from Tangled and Jane from Tarzan. I don’t know where that leaves me but I like to think friendly, cheerful and optimistic in lieu of clumsy, awkward and naïve.

I’d like to say I have a ton of interesting qualities, but I have the soul of a 90 year old woman, I’m afraid. I’m literally learning how to needle-point lol!

3. What do you never leave home without?

My phone and my wallet.

4. Are you an early bird or a night owl?

Night owl, for sure.

5. If you could live in any fictional world which one would you choose and why?

Oh Lord, how are you gonna do me like this?! Um, I’d have to say Harry Potter. I mean, right? Who wouldn’t want to go to Hogwarts?

6. Who is the most famous person you’ve ever met?

I met Pablo Montero (A Mexican Singer/Actor) when I was twelve. My mom and I ran into him at a gas station and he gave me a kiss on my cheek. It was pretty awesome.

7. What are some of your favorite movies/TV?

Jurassic Park, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, The Office, Riverdale, Parks and Rec, basically all Disney movies, and much more! I just can’t think of them on the spot.

8. What are some of your favorite bands/musicians?

I don’t have favorites for music. I listen to a wide range of genres, all depending on my mood. But for a clear answer’s sake, my playlist at the moment has artists such as Fleurie, alt-J, The Weeknd, AURORA, Ruelle, The Civil Wars and Alina Baraz.

9. Favorite Books?

Too many. Can’t name them all.  But I’m currently going through a few of Anne Rice’s works at the moment.

10. Favorite Food?

Anything with potatoes. Love me some starchy goodness. And chocolate is my kryptonite.

11. Biggest pet peeve?

People who bring their little kids/babies to the theater. People who ask questions they already know the answers to. People who act like they’re above others. Like we all don’t shit the same.

12. What did you want to be when you were little? What do you want to be now?

I wanted to be many things. I wanted to be a singer, a zookeeper, a detective… Right now, I just want to be happy.

13. What are your biggest fears? Do you have any strange fears?

Creepy crawlies, clowns, heights, dying alone. As for strange fears… I wouldn’t call it a fear, but I definitely have a weird thing about bathroom floors. I can’t walk in a bathroom without shoes or slippers. Can’t do it. It just freaks me out.

14. When you are on your deathbed, what would be the one thing you’d regret not doing?

I’m not sure. I’m not super young, but I don’t think I’m quite old enough to have an answer for that.

Okay… let’s talk about your writing!

15. Which is your favorite of the fics you've written for the Bughead fandom?

I quite enjoyed writing Red Sunrise and Lost and Found.

16. Which was the hardest to write, in terms of plot?

Well, most of my bughead fics are oneshots, so… I guess the fic I’m writing now? Dust to Dust.

17. How do you come up with the ideas for your fic(s)? Do you people watch? Listen to music? Get inspired by TV/movies?

Spur of the moment. Could be anything. A picture, a song, a scene from a movie or show.

18. Idea that you always wanted to write but could never make work?

A ghost ficcy. It’s just fucking difficult to write out what’s in my head and portray it to an audience, while in hopes they’ll envision it as I do.

19. Least favorite plot point/chapter/moment you’ve written?

Um, not to sound like a fucktwat, but I don’t have any that are my least favorite. I’m pretty proud of the work I post, only because I put so much effort and care into them.

20. Favorite plot point/chapter/moment you’ve written?

I really enjoyed writing the interactions between Betty and FP in Red Sunrise.

21.Favorite character to write?

Betty. She’s got layers.

22. Favorite line or lines of dialogue that you've written?

Oi. Um… I like this line from Resplendent,

“She leaves him disoriented, parched—needing more. Craving more. He's insatiable to her spirit. Her head dips back, giving him the canvas of her slicked neck for his tongue to paint silent promises on.”

23. Best comment/review you’ve ever received?

Oh, I can’t choose! I become incredibly giddy at every person’s comment, no matter how big or small it is. The mere fact someone’s taken time out of their day to read something I’ve written, and chosen out of their own will to comment on it!? It’s humbling! So awesome!

24. How do you handle bad reviews or comments?

If it’s constructive, I’m grateful. If it’s not, I ignore it.

25. If you could change anything in any of your stories, what would it be?

I can’t really think of anything. I’m sure there are things I’ve wanted to change, but I just can’t think of them right now.

26. What is your favorite story you’ve ever written? Any fandom?

Ranger of the Woods. It’s a Skyrim fic that I started writing in…2014? 2015? I can’t remember. It was a while ago. It’s based off a romance mod, and is the longest book I’ve written (Over 85k words). It’s actually my most popular work! I’m also very proud of its sequel Savior of Tamriel (Which I’m still writing for).

Fun fact, it’s in the process of being promoted on the mod author’s website as well, so that’s pretty exciting!

27. What are you reading right now? Both fan fiction and general fiction?

I’m reading a ton of Game of Thrones fanfiction because I’m Jon Snow and Robb Stark trash.

28. Do you have an advice for writers that want to get into this fandom but might be scared?

For really any fandom, I say just write for yourself. I started writing (horribly, I might add) when I was seven. I used to write little short stories. Then I started writing fanfiction when I was like, thirteen. It was for FFVII, Kingdom Hearts and ironically enough, The Archie Comics lmao! Let me tell you, my writing was fucking horrible and cringey af!! But, the more you do it, the better you get. Ignore the hate about your grammar, plot, mary-sues, etc, but utilize the constructive criticism given to improve yourself and your work.  

So far, the bughead community has been so supportive and encouraging with all creative contributions to the ship and fandom, so I wouldn’t feel intimidated.

GET TO KNOW THE BLOGGER

Can be used for RP and non-RP blogs to get to know a bit about the person behind the screen!

1. FIRST NAME: Wichi or Wichita

2. STRANGE FACT ABOUT YOURSELF: Does the fact that I left my high stress but decent-paying job with absolutely zero plan for what happened next and am running out of money count as weird

3. TOP THREE PHYSICAL THINGS YOU FIND ATTRACTIVE ON A PERSON: TOL. A lil bit soft. And scruffy. Not full on beard, but scruffy. Give me that 5 o’clock shadow

4. A FOOD YOU COULD EAT FOREVER AND NOT GET BORED OF: Tamales and chicken paprikash.

5. A FOOD YOU HATE:  E G G S. I hate the taste of egg whites. The only reason eggs are every in my house is because I bake like a motherfucker

6. GUILTY PLEASURE: Baking shit I usually end up just taking photos of and then eating myself because it’s just me and my family that wants me to stop. Also writing a cringe fic so cringe I won’t put it near this blog lmao

7. WHAT DO YOU SLEEP IN: cheap pajama pants, a sports bra and a t-shirt. Real sexy stuff

8. SERIOUS RELATIONSHIPS OR FLINGS: My last relationship was long distance and 8 years ago. I’m going to die alone.

9. IF YOU COULD GO BACK IN THE PAST AND CHANGE ONE THING ABOUT YOUR LIFE, WOULD YOU AND WHAT WOULD IT BE: I would have told me that I don’t want to study journalism, but visual communication technology. And I’d tell me I was going to get depression in my junior year and to see a fucking DOCTOR

10. ARE YOU AN AFFECTIONATE PERSON: I think I would be? I’m absolutely touch-starved but I’ve been single for so long, I think I’d have a hard time knowing when or how to initiate. Acts on the other hand, affectionate acts I can do.

11. A MOVIE YOU COULD WATCH OVER AND OVER AGAIN: Jurassic Park

12. FAVORITE BOOK: I have a lot, but the novel “It” made me want to write horror. The book is really fucking good, highly recommend it.

13. YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO KEEP ANY ANIMAL AS A PET, WHAT DO YOU CHOOSE: I’d say a crow just because I think I could actually handle it in terms of care.

14. TOP FIVE FICTIONAL SHIPS [IF YOU ARE AN RP BLOG, YOU CAN USE YOUR OWN SHIPS AS WELL]: FROSTSHIELD with @captain-outoftime. I’d say McFritz, which is between a canon Jesse McCree written by the amazing meme @boilingheart ​ and my overwatch OC @nichtschaden ​.  Destiel. Ineffable Husbands. There’s more I’ll think of later.

15. PIE OR CAKE:  C A K E. I left my job and discovered baking, and all I want to do is make some ridiculously over the top cakes. I’ve ruined store-bought frosting for me forever.

16. FAVORITE SCENT:  Campfire smoke by the lake.

17. CELEBRITY CRUSH: I have so many. We’ll go with Tom Hiddleston.

18. IF YOU COULD TRAVEL ANYWHERE, WHERE WOULD YOU GO: I’ll go anywhere with water tbfh

19. INTROVERT OR EXTROVERT: introvert

20. DO YOU SCARE EASILY: depends on the type of scare. If the building is on fire I can focus and get myself out, but video game jump scares get me.

21. IPHONE OR ANDROID: Android. All I’ve ever heard from apple users is how much they hate apple, and how expensive and stupid it is. Fun game: tell an apple user they can buy something else, and you can literally watch their brainwaves flat line. I don’t understand it. 

22. DO YOU PLAY ANY VIDEO GAMES: YUP. I love FPS and RPG games most, but I’ll play any platform or genre with a good first person story. The only things I’m not big into are MMOs or an FPS that’s just people shooting other people. Give me monsters and zombies and aliens. Give me Half-Life.

23. DREAM JOB: A let’s player on twitch and youtube who does a combination of video games and sarcastic baking videos. Not the domestic instagram princess of baking but your local androgynous cryptid who can and will take the name of martha stewart in vain and that is a threat

24. WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITH A MILLION DOLLARS: Pay off all my bills. Invest in shit. Find a better apartment. Finally buy me some 8inch cake pans because I can’t justify spending $20 on cake pans when I don’t have a JOB

25. FICTIONAL CHARACTER YOU HATE: I hate this guy even more than when I started writing this because I had to look up his fucking name in the WIKI because he’s that fucking irrelevant he doesn’t even show up in the main cast list. Gavin from Detroit Become Human. I hate him because I went in prepared to like him? I saw memes on here before I played the game, and the content is just fucking. SATURATED with Gavin. I expected a big character. Or at least a cool one. Canon Gavin was in a whopping 30 seconds of the game and spent them being a really fucking unlikable human being. He’s just a flat, throwaway two-dimensional asshole. I wish I knew how the in the fuck he came to have the most fanart and headcanons and fics on this site. It’s like people sitting at a conference table got attached to a chair that was slightly edgier than the other chairs and ignored the actual meeting. Except for the parts they could pertain to that chair if they squinted so hard they couldn’t see.

26. FANDOM THAT YOU WERE ONCE A PART OF BUT AREN’T ANY LONGER: I don’t really get invested in fandoms as a whole? I just carve out a niche, interact with like 6 people and reblog the memes. I was never the bitch writing meta or jumping in on discourse. I guess maybe Doctor Who? I loved Nine and Ten, but stalled out years ago in the early episodes of Eleven because I couldn’t stand one of the companions and just never felt compelled to go back and bully my way through it. If a show feels like homework I have to get through, I’m not going to do it.
