You are right and you SHOULD SAY IT

HELL YEAH and also she’d have to be the only child of the big three for the au to work so the rest of them would be probably be:

dustin, son of athena

max, daughter of ares

lucas, son of apollo

will, son of demeter

mike, ironically, i’m stuck on, but i’m very tempted to say that the kiddo who saw a girl lost in the woods and was like “bruh i love her and i’m gonna make her welcome in my home” should be a son of aphrodite

what do you think about mannequins

they’re terrifying

24 rant to me

24. How do you feel about Cursed Child?

It’s a piece of shit. Absolutely not canon. I refuse.

Reason 1: Snape is considered good. Fuck that. That ruined the book right there.

Reason 2: The time travel was handled terribly?? Like, JK did a good job with it in PoA but this was just trash

Reason 3: Voldemort’s daughter. Need I say more

Reason 4: Harry was a douchebag?? No thank you

Reason 5: Albus’ name. No I can’t forgive that.

The only forgiveable thing was that it gave us Scorbus, but that wasn’t even in the book it was just clear subtext so I can’t even give it points for that

Would not recommend. -662472794/10

@rowanisnever this reminded me of u

I just love *clenches fist* talking about character analysis and why characters act the way they do. It’s supremely satisfying to figure out motivations of characters and see how that ties into their core nature and how they perceive the world around them.

11/11/11 Tag

Thanks for tagging me @rowanisnever !

Rules: tag eleven people, answer eleven questions and write eleven questions

My Answers:

1. do you have a favorite line that you have written?

There was one line in a HP fanfiction I wrote but I can’t remember it and I don’t think I have it saved to anything on my laptop. It’s probably on my AO3 account somewhere. It was in a muggle AU I wrote and it was something about Harry feeling as if he was thrust into another universe which I thought was really clever at the time but now not so much

2. scream to me about your wips

Tbh there’s not much to scream about currently. It’s the first serious project I have worked on and it’s still in its planning phases. I hesitate to talk about it because I could spoil it. I don’t know how I’m marketing it yet so it changes what would be a spoiler and what wouldn’t if that makes sense

3. besides writing, what other kind of arts do you practice?

does singing badly in the shower count?

4. what’s your “cure” for writer’s block?

Scrolling through writing advice on Tumblr and Insta always helps. It makes me want to be productive

5. what genre do you prefer writing?

Idk. I like all realistic fiction but I did some horror once upon a time and I liked that as well. 

6. longer or shorter stories?

Depends. Sometimes I just want a story that gets to the point and achieves my goals as a reader (is that a thing?) quickly. Other times I need to feel more connected with the characters and suffer as they do for 100k words. 

7. do you use outlines?

Probably too much

8. five favorite words

I like discombobulated just bc my brother loves it, and I’ve completely forgotten all words of the English language sorry

9. which of your characters do you relate most to?

I haven’t posted about my OCs yet so no one’s going to know who I’m talking about but it would be Anna. She’s kind of a self-insert for the most part so. There’s some big differences of course. I feel like I exaggerated my worst qualities for her but she’s still likable and relatable (at least to me) 

10. where do you usually write?

I’m staying at my parent’s house over the summer while I’m out of college so I don’t really have a room or anywhere I can have a work space. I mostly just sit at the end of the couch with my laptop in my lap or on the coffee table

11. favorite writing trope?

Ah there’s so many. Writing ‘as you do’ after you describe something no normal person does, ‘and they were roommates,’ ‘but there was only one bed!’, anything with enemies to lovers, and this is mostly for movies/shows but when there’s something big/horrifying/etc. in a room but the characters are shocked and outraged over something else that is small and inconsequential 

sorry that was mostly word vomit but I’m a little overworked today

My questions:

1. What is your favorite emotion to write (happy, sad, angry, etc.)?

2. How much of your current WIP is based on you and your life?

3. What’s your favorite writeblr account?

4. If you were inserted into the world of your WIP, would you survive?

5. Do you read the same genre as you write?

6. Do you have a writing routine or do you just go with whatever happens?

7. What was the inspiration for your current WIP? In other words, what gave you the idea for it?

8. Which do you prefer to write: dialogue description, or action? 

9. What do you struggle with the most as a writer?

10. Is there anything that consistently shows up in your works, such as a trope or a certain type of character?

11. What’s the last line you’ve written?

11 / 11 / 11 tag

I was tagged by @maxsigmon! (Thank you!)

Rules: Answer the questions, write 11 more, tag 11 people

1. How long have you been writing?

Hm, I think it’s been somewhere around 13 years now. I started writing some time in the fourth grade.

2. Do you listen to music when you write? If so, is it for inspiration, setting the mood, or just for background noise? (Also please link me to your music, it’s my crack)

It depends on where I’m at -- if I can listen to music, then yes. And it’s for all three of the above. I used to be a music geek (and kinda still am). 

For a small selection of some of my current picks: 

Under Your Scars -- Godsmack

Hypnotized -- Set It Off

Mother’s Daughter -- Miley Cyrus

Paranoid -- I Prevail

3. Where is your favorite place to write?

I’ll write pretty much anywhere -- I only use apps that I can access both on my phone and computer. I prefer my home, though. I don’t like other people being able to look over my shoulder. Makes me twitchy.

4. Do you enjoy writing physical descriptions? (Is it important that your readers know what your characters look like?)

I don’t enjoy writing them much, no. I don’t usually write long descriptions unless I feel it really necessary. I like to keep the descriptions a little open to interpretation most of the time, though -- have major defining features, but let the reader have a bit of their own say in it. 

5. What have been some of your biggest influences for your current WIP?

I’m working mostly on poetry at this time -- I’m trying very hard to keep it mostly positive. Perhaps one day I will put it into a book.

6. Can you introduce us to a character of yours that you’ve not posted about or that you’ve only posted about a bit?

Katsumi Nakamura is an artist and a trans woman who is learning to cope with her mental health. She grew up with her mom, and never knew her father -- and doesn’t want to. When her mother passed away when Katsumi was thirteen, she’s taken in by her much older cousin, who is a doctor, and his wife, who takes Katsumi under her wing and helps her blossom into the woman she is -- an opinionated woman who is not ashamed of her femininity, and unafraid to enjoy the things that perhaps don’t fit into that box of gender roles either.

7. Do you outline first or start writing first?

Usually, I start writing. Often I’ll start with random scenes, then if I really feel it, I might actually attempt to write the in - between and that’s when I might outline.

8. Do you write for fun only or do you also want to publish someday?

Mostly just for fun. It’s a great destresser when my job can be very draining at times. A good way to get those bad things out of my head. Maybe one day I might try to get published, though. We’ll see where the future takes me. 

9. How did your current WIP come to you?

When I first started my lil positivity poetry project, my mental health was a good bit worse. It was honestly an attempt to try to force away my negative mindset and replace it with something more positive. It has helped, some.

10. Do you prefer pen and paper or typing?

Typing, definitely. I used to be mostly a pen and paper kind of guy, but typing is a lot more portable -- I can use my phone when I’m away from home and my computer when I’m home. Also, I don’t have to have the storage space for so many notebooks.

11. What’s your favorite writing snack/drink?

I like to always have a drink when I write. Either a good ol’ coke, or a glass of wine, if I’m just writing to destress. I don’t have a particular snack I eat though -- I munch on whatever’s around without much fuss.

New Questions

1. Do you listen to anything while you write? Music, television, white noise, etc.

2. Can you describe your favorite character? Either yours or a beloved favorite from a book or any other media -- I’d just love to hear about them.

3. When you write, do you have any particular requirements before you can start? (Have to be a specific somewhere, need music, etc.)

4. Do you prefer to be hot or cool when writing? Do you snuggle up with blankets or have fans running, or are you somewhere in - between?

5. What kind of writing ‘quirks’ do you have? 

6. What is your favorite book or book series?

7. Is there anyone who inspires your writing? 

8. What first got you started in writing? 

9. What would you suggest to new writers? 

10. Do you prefer to write first, second or third person?

11. How do deadlines affect your writing? Do they hinder or help you?

I’m still pretty new, so I’m gonna just select a few random blogs I follow. Hope none of you mind :) You don’t have to respond if you don’t want :)

i want a shirt saying “talk to me about aphrodite!mike wheeler and also the subtle implication that karen wheeler had an affair outside her loveless marriage with the literal goddess of love”

[brokentoasterrr]

do you have favorite lines that you wrote and think woAHHH this is some GOOD SHIT

honestly like ?? entire life finds a way because idk i think i’m fucking hilarious. and this bit from home:

One innocent kiss somehow turned to something more, and suddenly they were tugging at each other’s shirts, stumbling into the bedroom as they shared sloppy kisses that somehow felt like everything, even though they were slightly gross. Remus felt like everything.

They eventually ended up pressed together, chests heaving as they more or less just panted and let out soft moans into each other’s mouths. Sirius had his legs wrapped around Remus��� waist, wanting to bring him closer, closer, even though it was impossible. Their hands were intertwined, holding onto each other as if they would slip away from each other if they let go. They were so incredibly close and Sirius just wanted to be closer, closer.

And he thought, with Remus so incredibly close, as he nipped at Sirius’ throat, that after so many years, so many sleepless nights and so many tears, that he’d finally found his way home.

“Target passing down the town center.” Marlene says as Remus ducks under someone’s arm and into the shadows of a dark alleyway. “Angel, what’s your status?”

His feet tumble up the side of the alley wall, arm shooting out in midair to grab onto the second story window ledge. Remus grunts as he hauls himself up onto the cement surface. His duffel bag greets him at the top.

“Getting my things.” Remus replies, snatching it up. He prepares himself and leaps for the rooftop. “I’ll be on the eastside in two minutes.”

“Make it one.” Marlene snaps. “You have an heir to kill.”
