hi!! for wip wednesday, i'd love to know more about "kiss the girl!"
ria!! i am so sorry this took so long </3 but i have more of the kiss the girl au for u!!
Nancy loves music.
Which shouldn’t be surprising, mermaid and all. Nancy digs through Robin’s records and begs her to play them, just to see what they sound like. To see which ones she likes better. Nancy scribbles down little music reviews in her little notebook, tells Robin her opinions on Blondie and Stevie Nicks and what songs are better than others and which ones are the best—the ones she likes most.
But she never sings.
Isn’t that like, their thing? The siren song?
wip wursday :)

you said in your fic chrissy & robin are coworkers - where do they work do you think? :-)
oh!!! what a fun question!
hate to disappoint with the answer but honestly I didn't think about it too much? them being coworkers came straight out of @riality-check's first part of the series, so maybe ria has thoughts on where she headcanoned them working?
thinking about it now, some potential fun options:
baristas at a local coffee shop (chrissy works opening shift, robin is mid, so they only overlap for like 30 mins/1 hour max every day but it is the BEST hour of their days even though they're always slammed busy and have to do all their catching up while they share the coffee machine and pound out 50 drinks)
they both work a shitty adminy/businessy job, or like, chrissy is a secretary and robin does data entry, they chat around the water cooler all the time
they work in a daycare! chrissy is with the babies and robins got toddlers, and seeing chrissy walking around with a baby on her hip all day Does Things to robin's sensitive brain
hospital setting could be fun too - chrissy as a nurse (or early years resident) and robin is an EMT. they cross over handing patients off before robins gotta run back out, robin sees how good chrissy is at calming everyone down.
academia fun? robin is a post grad psychology student, chrissy is a gender studies phd, they TA the same intro to psych and gender class?
anyways thats what I've got today! again lets see what ideas ria has. who knows maybe this is going to inspire me to write a part two.....

hi!! i just saw the poll you posted about which fic to do next (i think it's obvious which option i voted for lol) and just wanted to say that i love your appalachian eddie content so, so much and wanted to ask about what part 2 might be? only if you're cool with sharing ofc!!
yeah ofc!! i'm always up for talking ab my fics 🥰
pt 2 is essentially a broader view of misty taste (pt 1). we get a glimpse what his routine is when he's feeling homesick and delve into his thoughts about feeling like he doesn't belong in a town that never made him feel welcome in the first place.
to be honest, this one's going to be a rewrite. at least the second half, anyway. i keep looking at it and rereading it and it all just sounds like a jumbled mess. but i'm excited to work on it and see what i can change and move around!

6 and 21 for the fic writer ask game?
6. Do you have your work beta'd? How important is this to your process?
HAHA usually, nope. This steddie bang is the first time I'm working with betas and for a big project like this, it's immensely useful bc I keep getting second thoughts about things and need critical feedback and also I might be missing things bc the universe is too big and obvious to me in my head and I can totally forget that something needs to be spelled out for readers.
I don't know if I'd still do that for the small silly fics, I have a look through them myself for consistency and well if there are some small errors left over in the end... like, who cares, it's a hobby, I'm not publishing this in print.
21. Would you ever collaborate with another writer for a story?
We're actually working on the @chooseyourownsteddie thing with @sidekick-hero rn and it's my first collab and it's been so much fun so far!! 🥰

hi mack!! 7, 13, and 19 for the stranger things ask game?
hiiiii ria!! ty for these questions!! 💕 💕 
7. Favorite couple? (canon or non-canon)
i mean i think it's preeeetty obvious who my favorite couple is 😂 i do run a steddie blog after all 😂😂 nah but for real, steddie is my favorite non canon couple because they just FIT so well together and they compliment each other very well, and it's just SUCH a fun dynamic they have, and also the way that it can be altered so much and still end up the same!! and that's fantastic!!
(honorable mention to ronance/buckingham bc i CANT pick a favorite robin ship i CANT; lumax; munderson; drumcheer; and jopper my beloveds <3)
((I JUST LOVE LOVE OKAY?))
13. Which would you want to be a part of? Scoops Troop or Hellfire Club?
OH NO THIS IS HARD!!! except wait a second, dustin is in BOTH, and technically so is erica. and i KNOW steve and robin would absolutely get wheedled into joining hellfire at some point.... soooo.... in that case hellfire for sure.
but if we're just going off of them the way they are now, i would have to choose scoops troop bc they are THEE ultimate faves.
19. Favorite minor character?
this is like. three way tied i think 😂 im a dirty cheater and can never just pick one for these kinds of questions 😂
my tie is between wayne munson, tommy hagan, and claudia henderson.
all three of those characters are SO much fun to dig deeper into and to put into situations and to explore the way they interact with those around them (especially wayne and tommy), and it's just a blast to come up with lil background details for all of them too.

for the fanfic ask game: 💭 !
hi hello ria!! thanks for the ask!!
💭 What is a headcanon you have about your own work? oooh my gosh too many to count!! for steve generally, he's not as dumb as the people around him think he is ((and sometimes it's funny / to his advantage to pretend to be dumb)), but also he thinks "cuffing season" refers to actually cuffing one's clothing.
eddie is a theatre kid which explains his instinct to "yes and" whatever situation he finds himself in, and he gets his flair for the dramatics from wayne.
and in any given fic of mine, only one of them knows how to cook and the other is a complete disaster in the kitchen.
i have a lot of headcanons about my own fics, but this one gave me a lot of trouble to actually articulate them. thanks for asking and making me think about it!!

14. for the end of year fandom asks?
14. best fix-it you read this year
THIS IS SUCH A HARD QUESTION OH MY GOD! Basically because we, as the Steddie fandom, have done such a good job to create a collective fix-it headcanon (Eddie survives, the shady government people somehow clear his name and give him a brand new home) so there are so many to choose from!! Either way, here are only a few of my favorites but please know that there are many, many more:
Keep It Steady, Eddie by outofmygourd (not ~technically a fix-it but one of the first Steddie fics I read this year!)
Turn Your Back On Mother Nature by gr0gu
Some Things Cosmic by stereobone
hold me now, i need relief by ToEdenandBackAgain
to live my own way by Macellarius

for the fanfic ask game: 🧠!
what's an idea you have that you can't quite call a wip?
i can't stop the spidey ideas, and recently as a companion to spider-nance, i've been thinking a LOT about a spidey max au. i don't have enough to make it an actual au, and i'm still really on the fence about it BUT she's still rattling around in my head

hi hex!! 💛💌🦋 for the fic writer ask game?
oh god i missed this completely SORRY RIAAA!
i answered 💌 here! (tldr: found family, enemies (&idiots) to lovers, 'it was always you')
annnd i answered 💛 here! (tldr: HAVE FUN with your writing!)
🦋 Which character is your favorite to write?
I think last year I would have said Steve, but honestly? I had SO much fun writing Eddie in the carve-verse, he's just.... I just love him! I also adore getting to write robin because she's really Just Like Me (an anxious gay adhd disaster who is also Kinda A Bitch)!
THANK YOU!
