Hello! Not sure if you're still taking these, so please feel free to ignore if you're not!

💝🤍🎀

Ooo I actually wasn't anticipating a response lol I hadn't even read all of them XD Lets seeeee

💝what is a fic that got a different response than you were expecting?

tbh I never know what to expect when posting a fic. I think the one that surprised me the most is the one I'm working on now, "Whoops". I had assumed Starjack was kind of a rarepair, since it hasn't gotten a lot of love in a while. Plus the g1 nature of the pairing made me feel like people wouldn't like it for some reason lol. But its almost completely overshadowed Taking it Further, beating it in almost every stat, I mean it has half the amount of chapters as TIF but it has 18k views compared to TIF which ENDED it's run at 10k lmao y'all really like Starjack XD

🤍what's one fic of yours you think people didn't "get"?

oof thats a toughie, I feel like it's more on my own writing style if people don't 'get' my fics. If I'm not clear enough or if my writing just isn't good enough then I'll lose people. Maybe my pacing is off or the characters aren't just right, there's a lot of places where I can lose people and fic is very personal. I'd say the one I put the most heart into and just didn't quite nab readers attention with was Unintended Consequences. I was going for a slice of life turned into a thriller but I think I just over embellished in places that didn't need it and its made it into a monster of a fic lmao. I'm glad for the people who have enjoyed it though AND I promise I will finish it lmao

🎀give yourself a compliment about your own writing

hmmmmmmm, idk I do words good? lol I have heard I'm really good at introspection for characters so let's go with that, it's one of the things I work the hardest on.

Thanks for the asks! these were fun :D

✨🎀🎈💞💥🎙️💌💌💌

No those three at the end aren't a mistake, I know you have lots of WIPs and I wanna hear about them (insert activethreat emote)

✨-What's a fic you've posted you wish you could breathe life into again and have people talking about it? (or simply a fic you wish got more credit):

Hmm. I'd say Ten Lives (The One Worth Living) but I think I might be biased and just want to talk about my Johnny, Kitty, and Shadow ideas more. I like them a Very Normal Amount I prommy.

🎀-give yourself a compliment about your own writing

There's a post that I've seen plenty times before that I think about all the time that goes something along the lines of "I'm having creative ideas above my skill level!" or something like that, for when you have a great idea but just don't know how to execute it the way you want. I legitimately feel where I am at a point where that isn't an issue for me with my writing? I think most ideas I can execute within the general sphere of what I want them to be; I might not always like them, and they might not always be what I consider "good," but they are comparable to the original idea.

🎈-describe your style as a writer; is it fixed? does it change?

It tends to change based on the type of thing I'm writing. And how much sleep I get. I like a lot of shorter sentences, followed by one long rambling one for most kinds of prose, since most of my prose is an ooo ouch my bones type of prose. It does change all the time though, so that might be different in a few months. It certainly wasn't what I preferred until like, August.

💞-what's the most important part of a story for you? the plot, the characters, the worldbuilding, the technical stuff (grammar etc), the figurative language

hm. augh. mm. thats a toughy! I'm going to say worldbuilding, because I often find myself more interested in the worldbuilding that the Actual Story I'm Trying To Write (its why a 30k first draft of a novel is fitting, completely unfinished, in my google drive. The current guys suck. I want the old ones. But the old ones only work as history for the new guys. Its sad.)

💥-find your least kudos'd fic - say something wonderful about it.

I'm ngl I completely thought it was gun safe but First Concert! It's a pretty short one, but it does what I sought out to accomplish; combine Dora and Ember's interests in a way that illustrates their differences but also shows that they're much more similar than you'd think.

🎙️-which one of your fics would you like someone to make a pod-fic of?

I have literally never put thought into that ever. If I had to choose, probably All In The Name Of Love or Strength of the Past And Weights of The Present, mostly because they're my favorites.

Welcome to WIP hell! See, you'd think that it would be a problem, having two of my WIPS be EI so I can't talk about them, and one being one you know so much about already. You might think that would hinder me somehow, in being able to tell you about them. YOU'D THINK!!

💌- share something with us about an up-and-coming work (WIP) that has you excited!

Chapter 2 Of Cover Blown: I love pitch pearl man, I really do, and with what I'm planning for this one I think it is going to be about as good as my pitch pearl can get (Dreamwalker excluded dw). I love putting guys in situations, especially when those situations involve bad injuries and babbled confessions.

Speaking of Dreamwalker, I'll add this here too, because while you might know a lot, I always have more. I love how I'm writing the ghosts, just across the board. They are all pieces of shit in the Funniest Way, especially since Danny is a whole ass child right now. You're scheming about a nine year old babes, calm down. He hasn't even lost all his baby teeth yet.

As for the last one, I'm going to put it under a read more. TW for bugs and Danny rotting, but its ok he's fine with it.

Bug Boi (title to be changed later) has been shelved indefinitely for. Many reasons! I have. So much to write. Bug Boi is, for those who do not know. Where I put as many bugs into the boy as possible. He loses organ privileges and instead becomes the landlord for a hoard of different bugs. He loves them, and they love him, and when they die (as bugs often do) they give him their little bug souls as a thank you so he because More Bug.

Anyway, I recently learned about the scorpion fly, who looks like this:

It is so cool, and has recently (idk how recently) been seen in forensic entomology, meaning that I can put these fuckers into Danny's eye sockets or esophagus or wherever else and be. Not technically wrong!! I have no idea if Bug Boi will ever be taken off of my list of to be written, but if nothing else it gives for me a place to put bugs.

Hello my dear! For the fic asks- I have two!

17: What has been the proudest moment for you so far since you started writing?

24: Which fic of yours do you wish people would ask about more? Why?

💖💖💖

17 - Ooo, that's a toughy. Part of me wants to say getting accepted to the Beginning of Forever zine, but honestly I'm proud I started writing again period. And for that, I am forever grateful to you. I remember in 2018 or 19 I started writing a Phantom of the Opera AU after it toured again near us and I think I was just sharing it with you (obvs did not post on AO3) but that spark was the re-start of what has been my favorite hobby and passion since I could read and tell stories during bath time.

24 - Another toughy! ;) Honestly, I wish You'll Always Be My Favorite Ghost got more love. I know it's new and incomplete and has a Major Character Death tag which I'm sure scares people away, but it's the most self-indulgent thing that I've ever written with a tight plot and I am so damn proud of it, even though it's stylistically different from everything else I've written so far (or at least I feel that way).

Overall, I feel honored by all comments I receive and it's been great to see people reacting over the multiple chapters of Demon Ink. <3

Thank you for asking these, love! <3 I appreciate it.
