For the 'Not-So-Nice' OC asks:

bound: Has your OC ever been imprisoned or captured? What happened? How did they get out? Did the experience leave any scars?

break: What would cause your OC to break down completely? What do they look like when that happens? Has anyone ever seen them at their lowest?

mistake: What's the worst mistake your OC ever made? What led to them making it? Have they been able to fix it? How have they moved on?

wound: How does your OC handle being wounded? Are their wounds mostly physical? Mental? Emotional? What's the worst wound your OC has ever experienced?

(Kate's my girl, but I'm not sure how much can be answered for her. But all your OCs got some trauma, so swap to answer as you want 😂)

What's an oc without trauma? 😂 We're talking about Kate Thompson, right?

bound: Has your OC ever been imprisoned or captured? What happened? How did they get out? Did the experience leave any scars?

Uh...not before she woke up as Tammy...

break: What would cause your OC to break down completely? What do they look like when that happens? Has anyone ever seen them at their lowest?

We've seen her break down. It's the understanding that she'll never go home, that there's no longer any Kate without Tammy being a part of her. We've also seen her break down at the loss of a friend. Hopper has seen it. Robin's seen it. It won't be the first time or the last...

mistake: What's the worst mistake your OC ever made? What led to them making it? Have they been able to fix it? How have they moved on?

Kate makes a lot of mistakes but she'll admit that she makes them and tries to fix them. She actively tries to learn from her mistakes. As for the worst one she's ever made...as Tammy? Keeping certain things to herself too long.

wound: How does your OC handle being wounded? Are their wounds mostly physical? Mental? Emotional? What's the worst wound your OC has ever experienced?

....she's never been majorly wounded (yet). She has been through some major emotional wounds like the death of her friend, and the loss of her old life...I'd say the worst so far was waking up as Tammy 😂😂😂

Thanks for asking!

Fanfic Asks:

I really liked how you played with the morality on 'Think Bigger'. You push a bit into sympathizing. Push a bit again. And then there's the reminder of exactly who we're dealing with. It's a nice ebb and flow with how the reader should perceive them.

Aiidjfifjgjfhksjgjf THANKS????!!!!!???!!!

I was a bit nervous when I first come up with my Bradley H, my lone wanderer oc, because of his morality. He certainly is a bad guy, but not because he is insane (he probably is but that’s beside the point) or that he holds a wrong belief like some villains in fallout series, but because he simply doesn’t care. He has a very self-centred view of the world where he deems anything useless if he can’t see benefits directly related to him. However, if it comes to his friends, he then cares. A lot. That’s why I wanted to portray him from an outside view but also being inside of his little circle, and from someone who has been lack of affection, BH would be a very contradicting figure and will get them more confused.

I wanted to show that BH’s actions highly depend on whether he cares or not, therefore sometimes he seems like just a guy from someone who’s close to him, or a really sweet guy, even; but he isn’t, and overall we shouldn’t really sympathise with him. I also wanted to show he’s very charismatic and he knows, which would naturally get Butch’s head all confused.

It was really interesting trying to write this from Butch DeLoria’s POV in itself. He’s a 19 years old boy who was a bully probably because he wasn’t really loved by his own mother and doesn’t know who his father is. He has this illusion of what a tough guy looks like, but inside creepy places he still randomly asks you to not leave him there. My most belovedest cringefail boy <333

Sorry for the ramble and thanks again!!!!!!!

Cute and Angst - whichever OC is loudest rn

Since she’s on my mind, I’m going to do this for Jo 😊

Cute: Jo used to talk to Joel on a payphone at the NYU campus almost every single day while she was away for college.

Angst: If the outbreak hadn’t happened, Jo would have been a mother. (And no I won’t elaborate on that 👀)

Send me one of my ocs and either cute or angst and I will tell you a cute or angsty fact about them.

[anglophile-rin]

Another Round if You're Up For it

UM okay, listen...this got away from me a bit...

Warnings: cheating, light smut, swearing. Unbeta'd (I only read it over like..once or twice..) Rating: M...I guess for the above warnings. Pairing: Rengoku Kyojuro x unnamed/undescribed oc Notes: Kyojuro is a bit darker in this. Man is not as innocent as he appears... Thank you to @vixenofcourse and @comatosebunny09 who helped me decide on what direction I wanted to go with this.

Sequel: Prompt: "When he touches you, is it his face you see or mine?"

This is for our game "send a song and create the bones of a scene or plot based on it" If you want to join in, lmk and I'll send you a song!

“What are you doing?” She whispers it, afraid to break this silence, this tension that continues to build between them. She’s not supposed to be here. She’s not supposed to be doing this. 

“Hmm?” he asks, his eyes moving from looking at her lips to her eyes. They pierce her, holding her in place. It’s amazing she can even see his features in this dark room, the only light being the glare of the streetlight from the window. Everyone is downstairs. She can hear them, the music vibrating the floor underneath them. Even though she can’t hear him, she knows her boyfriend is down there, waiting for her. If he even notices. He hasn’t noticed that she has to bite her lip when they fuck, desperate to make sure she doesn’t call someone else’s name. His name.

She hasn’t been able to stop thinking about him. It’s gotten to the point where she knows she needs to break up with the boy downstairs because it’s not fair to him that the man in front of her occupies her mind as much as he does. 

“What are you doing?” she asks again. He didn’t even stop her in the hall as they passed each other, just pulled her into this room. She heard the lock click behind him as he closed the door. 

“Something we both want,” he says. His arm goes around her, hand pressing into the small of her back as he pulls her into him. His other hand goes to her jaw, tilting her head up as he kisses her. 

She was right, she thinks idly. He kisses with as much passion as he does everything in his life. 

She doesn’t know who moves first but her back is pressed against the wall and he kisses her like he’s trying to memorize every part of her. His leg presses between hers and he can’t help but try to will him closer. How come it never feels like this with–

 “We,” she swallows tightly. She breaks the kiss but his mouth moves across her jaw and down her neck. “We shouldn’t do this.” She knows it’s wrong. She can admit that she’s not perfect, she’s made mistakes but him? This isn’t supposed to be something he’d condone. He’s not supposed to want her back. Not like this. “We should stop.”

“Why?” he asks. She almost doesn’t hear it. “Why do I always have to stop?” He lets out a slow breath. “Because of him? You think they’re going to suspect anything? He can’t even see the way you look at me or how much I’ve fucking held back.” 

She’s never heard him swear before. “Kyo-” she gasps as he pulls her closer, rocking her on his thigh. He swallows it with another kiss. His hand slides up under her shirt. The heat of it feels like it burns. 

“Say it again.” 

She shakes her head, unwilling. She wasn’t supposed to say it in the first place. He laughs lightly and she shivers at the sound of it. 

“Again,” he demands.

“Kyojuro,” she breathes. Her head falls back, giving in to the sensations. 

He hums against her skin. “Does he make you feel like this?” 

She doesn’t answer. She digs her hand into his hair, fingers tightening on the blond locks. He groans. His hips buck against her, his grip on her waist tightening. He moves her, just enough that she’s rocking against his thigh, the friction building. He’s strong enough to hold her, to direct her as he wants. She feels almost weightless in comparison.

“Let me hear you.”

“We can’t,” she breathes, trying to focus. Her shirt is somehow off and his mouth burns a path on her collarbone. He’s going to set her on fire and she knows she will welcome the blaze. “We-” she cuts herself off. “Don’t leave marks.” 

He pulls back and stares at her for a moment. He is breathless and desperate and wanting, just like she is. His gaze darkens the longer they look at each other. “I could leave any,” he says. “I could brand my name onto your skin and they still wouldn’t guess that I’m going to make you forget anyone who’s ever touched you.” 

Her breath catches in her throat at the promise. Wasn’t this exactly what she wanted? She just never expected that this man, the same one everyone praises for how kind, how innocent, he is, would want it too. 

“Just once,” she says out loud, hoping that the universe will forgive her for this transgression. She can be forgiven if it’s just once, right?

He laughs. “As if I would let you go now that I have you.” He kisses her, “right where,” again, “I want you,” and again. He hitches her closer, urging her to wrap her legs around his waist. She does, succumbing to the feeling of him and losing herself to her desires. 

She kisses him back just as hard. If she does goes to hell for this, at least she won’t burn alone. 

*meanwhile downstairs…*

“Where’s your girl?” “Upstairs I think. I don’t know, she’s around.” “I saw Rengoku go up there. You’re not worried?” He laughs. “About him? Please. He’s probably never even kissed a girl before.”

Cursed and deranged fanfic writer Q&A

[asirensrage]

I see how this is. I have so many plans though for Tammy (seriously, this fic will never end hahahah) and I don't think @vixenofcourse would ever let me give it up. It's her's too. Trust me, you don't want it. It's a lot of pressure now hahaha

(but also, you can't have it. I have plans. Glorious plans that I need to see through. I need to see the reactions to them.)

For the Cursed and Deranged ask game! #2, 5, 9, 14 annddd 17! ^_^

💖💖 Thank you for the Asks!! 💖💖

2 - Do you write porn from the perspective of the character you want to be or the one you want to bang?

My POV’s are usually a blend of 3rd person with insights to one specific character in each section. For the scenes I’ve written already, it's mostly coming from the OC perspective. All Hayden/Glen scenes are with Hayden insight so I guess I can confidently say POV is who I want to be there, but the other pairs are a hit or miss. Max has POV on 1 of 2 scenes. Harold, Steph, and Gwen each have a POV scene as well. But really, Glen is my guy, so you might say, with those other pairings, I don’t really have a horse in the race.

5 - Who’s the sexiest non-human character in your current fandom? (must actually diverge from human sexual characteristics - no elves or asari)

Like canon fandom? Because Flagg wins on default. He’s really the only supernatural being in play there. And I mean, it is Skarsgård. I started watching this for him, and I’ll go down on the Eric Northman ship any day. Flagg himself though? Dude needs a good punch to the face, and for somebody to mess up that stupid hair and get him out of Denim Dan mode. But good luck having sexy time without going bat shit crazy or knocked up with CK demon spawn.

If we’re talking about the world I created in Diving and OCs are in play…? Vampires may not diverge enough, but if they do, Gwen would most likely take the trophy. Laufey may wrestle that bitch away for their own though, and would have more of a divergence claim to count in their favor. The image I had for Shay would also put her in the running too, although she doesn’t play to that dynamic.

9 - Who/what are your inspirations for truly fucked up content?

I mean, my fandom source material is pretty fucked. Stephen King and all. I lean more to the Buffy end of things. Give me baddies, but I want the white side to have a bit more control in it all, or have the end favor it more. And I also love seeing a good redemption arc. So in that mindset, SK is much darker than I could ever be. I also think I may be pulling some vibes from Dean Koontz too, because I really liked his Odd Thomas and Fear Nothing series. In my head, he’s kind of SK light. Still a 'thats fucked' vibe, but less of a lingering 'fuck you - why did you do that?! You let him alone!' screaming outbursts. I like my horror, but it's because I want to see a ‘Doctor Who’ jump in and save people. So my fanfic is trying to do just that. Fuck you, let Glen alone, I love him.

14 - What’s your favourite way to emotionally destroy your favourite character?

Perceived loss and the helplessness to stop it. I absolutely enjoy a good ‘may hell rain down upon you’ when one character thinks another character is in danger or dead. I want to see the villains have the ‘oh… oh shit…’ moment when they realize what they brought on. I want to watch it get destroyed, and I want to cheer them on when they do it. Burn it down.

17 - If you could steal one fic from any other writer and claim it as your own, what would you take?

Hey @asirensrage wanna give up Tammy? No? Thought not. You know my undying love for this fic.
