S P O R T -rux

oh shit rux i’m sorry this took me so long to answer my brain decided to. Yeet today but!!

S: Any fandom tropes you can’t resist?

well,,, a lot of Not sfw ones,, but we’re not gonna talk abt that fgdkgfjflgjd, but literally domestic tropes make me so happy?? give me all the fluffy, we’re not family but we will be tropes

other faves: wingfics, darkfic, de-aged characters (bc it’s Chaos usually and i love it), disability fics, and anything with dogs

P: Are you what George R. R. Martin would call an “architect” or a “gardener”? (How much do you plan in advance, versus letting the story unfold as you go?) 

a bit of both!! depends on the fic. for my Service Dogs for Superheroes ‘verse, i am absolutely an architect, but for a lot of my other fics, i’m a gardener. if i end up with a story that’s nowhere near what i intended, then that’s cool!!

O: How do you begin a story–with the plot, or the characters?

ooh, again, depends!! sometimes i get a plot idea and i’m like “i don’t know how i will use this but it will be FUN,” and sometimes i see a character and i go “i don’t know what’s going to happen to you, but let’s see!”

i think most of the times i’m a plot person, i get an idea and just. “anyone else writing this? hmm? no? maybe? well i’m gonna do it hold my mug--”

R: Are there any writers (fanfic or otherwise) you consider an influence?

oh god. uhh yes, so many!! there’s a writer on ff.net that was the reason i started writing heavier topics, so shout out to author Tanglepelt on ff.net for their fic “The Weakest Link” that traumatized me and made my life better tbh

other fic writers that make me wanna do Better: hobbywriting on AO3 and their story “Fear”, arsenicarcher (Arsenic) on AO3 and their story “The Goat’s Back”, romanoff on AO3 and their story “The Draw”, and you, Rux!! your writing makes me wanna cry i love you

other writers that make me wanna do better: Lindsay Wilson (poet, i had him as a teacher!!), Mark Maynard (short story writer, i had him as a teacher too!!), Jim Butcher, Matthew Reilly, so many more i’m sure but this is who i’m thinking of currently

T: Any fandom tropes you can’t stand?

let me be the asshole to say it, but i fucking hate genderbend/genderswap as a thing. make them trans for fuck’s sake?? same with mpreg, they can be trans men!! goddamn!! in which case its literally just pregnancy!! i’ll scream i swear to god

also: slavefics (i... yeah, i don’t even know what to say about that one, i Can’t Stand It), crossovers (usually. just not my thing generally), and royalty aus (i don’t know why, just not a big fan)

thank you so much rux ily!!! 💕💕💕
