Masterlist

-

After all these Long Distances drama, finally he came home to LA. But you didn’t immediately meet him because you were busy at studio, helping Justin again with his song called Forever. You know Calum didn’t really like it but you did it anyway, because it was your work and you like to help friend.

It’s 10 p.m. and you texted Calum.

You said goodbye to the people on the studio, and also Justin. You just waved at him and left the building. Second time you met him still awkward, at least for you.

-

You checked your schedule at your laptop and today was the day you had a video meeting with Andrew Watt. He invited you to help him and his friends to write a song. He didn’t mention who his friends was but you guessed one of them is Ali Tamposi.

You waited for him to call you and you also eat your breakfast. Not long enough he finally called you. You answered his calls and his face was on your screen alongside with Ali, your guessed was right, Ryan Tedder and also you saw someone very familiar. It was Luke.

“Aye Palvin.” Andrew greeted you. You smiled and waved to the camera. “I asked her to help us writing because… i didn’t know anyone else.” He laughed and we also laughed.

You furrowed your eyebrows. “Luke hi!? Why are you here?” You asked him. “Is Luke going solo?” Then you asked the rest of them hoping they would answer.

“No I’m not. It’s 5sos’ project.” Luke gave you a smile and you returned it.

“Cool!” you said. “So, thank you so much for letting me be the part of this project.”

They’re all happy seeing you joining this meeting.

“So i have wrote the lyric and i want to share with you all.” Ryan began to play chords on his guitar and sang the lyric. After he finished, he continued to explain. “The concept is where you hurt someone and you’re kind of making them a promise that although i’ve hurt you and there’s like this dark cloud over us right now, I’m gonna give you the best years of my life.”

You nodded.

“Wow i think it’s a beautiful romantic promise and statement to make.” Luke nodded also.

After hours and hours passed by, we finished the verses, the pre chorus. And then Andrew started played the guitar to match the lyrics. “This is so beautiful. Guys thank you so much for helping. I’ll take it from here.” Meeting is over and it was 6 P.M. right now. You called Calum right away.

“Hello?” Said Calum from the other side. He sounded different.

“Hello Cal,” you greeted him happily even though he didn’t respond the same. “Where are you? I just finished meeting with Andrew.”

“Oh. I’m outside. I’m meeting my friends.” He answered as short as he could.

You sighed slowly. His attitude became like this since he knew you’ve been working with Justin for his upcoming album. Almost a month since early august. On one side you glad you fixed the friendship you had with Justin. Because deep down you just want to live in peace and had no more hate feeling to him. And also you felt a strong connection with Justin when you wrote songs together. Not in a romantic way. But the other side, it tore Calum apart. You knew the consequences of having Justin again in your life and you still took it anyway. And now look what you have done. Slowly you and Calum distance to each other.

“Oh, okay. How’s the Teeth promo doing?” You asked him again try to reduce your ego.

“Great, it was great.”

You tried to hold your tears. “Alright, have fun Cali.” You decided to end the conversation because you couldn’t handle his bitterness.

“Bye.”

You ended up crying on your bed without him knowing your hearts hurt so bad.

-

Today is September 1st and you got an email from Justin. It was an invitation to his wedding day with Hailey on September 30. You sighed as you saw this digital invitation shown so beautifully on your laptop screen. Suddenly you mind did a flashback to the sick old memory. But it dispersed when you got a video call from Michael.

“Hey hey miss B,” Michael greeted. “What you doing girl.”

You grinned confusely. “Hey dude, just sit on my couch doing nothing. What’s up Mike?” When you asked him, out from nowhere, Calum joined the video call.

“Hey Cal.” Mike waved his hand to Calum.

Calum frowned. “What’s with this meeting, dude?” He sounded almost pissed with Michael because he had been avoided any video call or meeting with you directly.

“Stop it both of you.” Michael snapped. “I knew you two had been avoiding each other for over a month. I love you two and i don’t want anything bad happened to you guys. Cal you better make it up or i will be so mad at you. Alright, I’m out. Bye.” He left the call and it leave you only with Calum.

You gulped. You could see his faced were so pissed. You were so ready if he said he wanted to break up.

“Cal…,” you paused. “What happened to us? We haven’t seen each other for a month.”

“I’m busy with the promo. We’ve been doing this for years, Saara. I’m busy with my band and you’re busy at the studio, that’s it.” He avoided any eye contact with you.

You wiped your tears. “Don’t you Saara me, Cal.” Your heart shattered when he called you by name. “I knew we’ve been doing this for years, but we communicated through calls, video calls, we talked.” “If you have something to talk to me please tell me now.”

His face turned into sad. “Fine. I still can’t accept the fact you still involved with Justin. After all this years he hurted you, i waited for you to heal your feelings from him, just for you to go back with him?”

“I’m not going to back to him. I’m with you now, Cal. Please. It was just an album work i swear to God. I’m returning favors to Poo Bear. I owe him so much until i am today, that’s why i accepted his request to be part of Justin’s album. That’s it.” You explained to him hardly because you were crying.

“I’m outside.”

You left the laptop and opened the door immediately. You saw him stood there with his phone on his left hand and a bucket of roses on his right hand. You hugged him immediately and cried on his chest. “Please don’t leave me.” You said it while sobbing.

“If i leave you i wouldn’t give you this flowers.” You pulled the hug and you took the flowers. “I love you so much that i don’t want to lose you again. and I’m sorry this situation went too far.”

You nodded and kisses him.

I’m 100% sure that lots of people have brought this up before, but

I had never thought of how perfectly fitting “Teeth” by 5SOS is with Astarion’s romance

5SOS: Your Brother’s In The Vamps, & You Like A Boy From 5SOS

Parings: Luke x you

Rating: General Audiences

Warnings: My 5sos imagines were all written, maybe ten years ago, the writing standard isn't what my writing is like now. Bare that in mind please. Cringe warning :)

Words: 803

You looked up from your spot on the lunch table. You sat alone, but you felt someone sit next to you. You looked to them, and it was Luke! Luke Hemmings! The bad boy of the school, you had no idea why he was anywhere near you.

“Hey…” He stopped, not knowing your name. “Y/N” You said, rolling your eyes slightly. “So, I was wondering” He started, he actually sounded nervous. Wow, he was so hot. His eyes were so beautiful, being the bright blue they were, and his hair, blonde with the tips dyed a bright blue too. He was, as you liked to say ‘Visually Pleasuring’ to look at.

And those tattoos and piecing’s. The tattoo sleeves he had on both arms, and that lips piecing. That was enough to make anyone go weak at the knees.

You realise he is looking at you expectantly.  

“Wait, what sorry?” You asked, feeling bad. You were to memorized by his beauty to actually listen to his soft voice.

“I asked, if you would like to go out with me?” He asked. You were stunned. “Why?” Was the only word you could really think of saying.

“Because I think you’re beautiful. And I’ve been watching you during lessons, and well I think you’re just brilliant!” He said, his cheeks tinting red.

“Wow, yes I would like too” You answer, before you can think. “Wow, really? I didn’t think you’d want too.”

“Why?” You ask again.

“Because normally the girls I ask out are easy, and they let me do whatever. You are different. I just thought a girl like you would never want to be seen with a guy like me. I meant good different by the way” He smiled, a toothy smile. Letting you see his teeth were perfect too.

“I don’t know. There is something about you Luke. And honestly, I think you’re brilliant too. So I would love to go out with you” You smiled.

“Yay. Thank you. How about on Friday? I could pick you up at 7?” He asks, and you nod. He thanks you again, but this time by kissing you cheek.

He walks off. And this is when you stood up, and walk into your twin brother; Tristan.

“Why were you with Hemmings Y/N?” He asked. “He asked to hang out, I said yes” You answer. “Sure you can trust him?” Tris asked, worried. He knew Luke could be a bit of a player. Well he heard he is.

“I’m sure I can” You answer, smiling. “Okay, if you think you can. Just make sure he doesn’t hurt you” Tris smiled, and kisses your forehead, before both of you head to your next lesson. Connor; your best friend was waiting for you in the class. You excitedly walked to him, and instead of listening to the teacher, the whole lesson was spend with you talking about Luke Hemmings asking you out!

~#~#~#~

The date with Luke was amazing. He took you to see a movie, and then to a restaurant. It was amazing! Soon after he invited you to his house, because it wasn’t late, and you both didn’t want to separate from hanging out.

You were sat in his room, drinking coffee, and watching another film.

“So I didn’t realise you were Tristan Evan’s sister” Luke casually said. “Yeah, we’re twins” You laugh.

“I know that now. Y/N I feel weird asking this, but do you think I could kiss you?” Luke asks, it takes you back slightly. You had never kissed anyone before, and a very hot guy was now asking to kiss you.

“I don’t know. I’ve never kissed anyone. I won’t be good at it” You chuckle nervously. “We don’t have too.”

“I want too” You suddenly say, shocked at yourself. Luke smiles and his face inches closer to yours, you could actually feel his breath on your lips. You lick your lips, not wanting them to be dry when his lips reach yours.

You tried to keep breathing like a normal human being. And then suddenly, Luke’s soft lips, and his cold lip ring were on your lips. His hands had slowly made their way to the sides of your face. Luke stopped before the kiss deepened.

“Wow, that was pretty amazing” He smiled.

“Yeah, it was. Thanks Luke” You blushed at him.

“That’s okay. As long as those kisses are a thing I can always have” He winked, and then laughed. “That was terrible”

“Yeah, it was” You said, as the both of you started in a fit of laugher.

Luke quickly stopped and looked at his phone. “Oh god. It’s nearly midnight, I should get you home” You nodded, getting up. Luke and You both left the house, walking down the streets to your house, holding tightly onto each other’s hands.

calum hood x fem!oc

read other chapters

october 17, 2016 madrid, spain orion

Slightly hungover, I wake up to four missed calls from Calum, along with twenty-something text messages. It's been a while since they were in Europe. They went to the US for a month or so and then toured Australia and New Zealand. Now the that tour is over, none of 5SOS are really posting much, so I don’t even know where in the world he is these days.

We'd gone out last night — me, Paula, Ilse, Marta, and Lucia. We started at Space Monkey, taking advantage of Lucia's employee discount. We ended up at Capital, which is notably the fanciest place we could've gone. I wasn't allowed to wear my normal sneakers, which made me mad, especially for having to pay the 20€ cover fee to get in. I'm not that hungover. My head just hurts and my stomach needs food, and I'm definitely exhausted.

Calum and I have texted and Facetimed sparsely since they left Europe, but I've tried to keep it brief. I'm sure he's been seeing other girls since they’ve been on different continents, and I’ve been trying to make the most of my time in Madrid with my wonderful roommates who’ve turned into great friends. He doesn’t need to waste his time on me. I don’t expect anything out of him. We were just a temporary thing. I don’t know that we make sense beyond the time we’ve spent together, so I’ve been trying to keep my expectations low. He’s called me here and there, but again, I’ve tried to keep it brief. I’ve been trying to avoid getting too attached, and the more we talk, the more attached I’d get.

His onslaught of notifications totally catches me off guard. What does he want? Why would he text me that many times and call, all at once? Did he give me an STD? Jesus, how would I even get tested here? Just go to the hospital?

I nervously open my messages app to see what he’s sent.

From: calum 5sos

hi what are you doing today

i just really missed you and am so excited to see you

hope you wake up soon so i can squeeze you

i want to spend every second with you so the weeks apart have been torture

can’t wait to see you. seriously.

pls wake up and let me in

While I guess I am excited to see him, I don’t know what he’s doing here. He came here first? He chose to see me over his family and friends? Madrid isn’t exactly close to LA or Australia. I think his sister lives in London, so maybe he’s on his way to her.

I don’t bother to check the voicemails — his texts have said more than enough.

To: calum 5sos

um hi just woke up

i’ll be down in a bit

I get out of bed and change my sleep shorts to jeans, throwing a hoodie on over my sports bra, and slipping my feet into my beloved white sneakers. I leave my room to head to the bathroom and find Paula and Lucia cuddled up on the couch, scrolling through their phones. It’s 11:30 now, and they’ve both showered it seems, since their hair is wet, so I’m guessing they’ve been up for a while.

“Buenos,” Paula greets me. She doesn’t look hungover at all, but I don’t think she actually drank that much last night.

“Hi,” I say back, debating talking to her or just getting to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face quickly. I decide to update her on the situation. “Um, Calum’s outside?”

Her eyes go wide and she puts her phone down. “What?” She’s also grinning at me wickedly. She has always loved the idea of me and Cal together, but I always reminded her we were just casual and to stop getting so excited about our prospect as a ‘real’ couple. This news is probably music to her ears.

“I don’t know, he sent me, like, twenty texts and called me a bunch.” I sigh, running my hand through my hair. I don’t know why, but I’m stressed about this. What the fuck is he doing here?

“Orion, I keep telling you. He likes you!”

I frown. Why would he choose me? “I don’t know. I’m gonna go to the bathroom and then go see what he wants.”

Letting the water heat up so I can wash my face, I brush my teeth and braid my hair. In the mirror, I see I still have mascara smudges from taking off my makeup in my drunken stupor early this morning. I do my best to wake myself up with the hot water and quickly apply some mascara and brow gel. I don’t need to impress Calum, but suddenly I hate my reflection. I frown at myself and let out a sigh, and then I leave the bathroom, hurrying out the door of the apartment and down the creaky stairs.

When I step out onto the sidewalk, I see him. He’s sitting on the bench that’s about 20 feet from the door, scrolling on his phone. Next to him, I see a small bouquet of chamomile, a silky pink ribbon tied around the flowers. Calum is wearing a cobalt blue hoodie and his typical black pants with a pair of white sneakers. His hair is hidden under a gray beanie. My stupid heart starts beating faster at the sight of him. He looks sleepy and cozy.

I gulp and approach the bench, clearing my throat to catch his attention. Calum looks up at me with his dark brown eyes and instantly grins when we make eye contact. He practically jumps up and runs to me, engulfing me in a tight hug and lifting me off the ground.

I hug him back. It is nice to see him, I’ve decided. He’s warm and he smells nice this morning.

Calum holds me in the air for what feels like a very long time before he sets me back on the ground.

“Hi,” he breathes. He’s still beaming at me, his eyes sparkling in the sunlight. “I’ve missed you.”

Why?

“I’ve missed you too,” I find myself saying. I have, but I’ve been trying not to think about it. I’ve tried to keep my distance.

He then pulls me into another hug, and I awkwardly wrap my arms around him again, still in shock that he’s here right now. And he missed me. He missed me.

“What are you doing here?” I ask. My voice is soft, quiet. I’m so uncertain about this situation.

“I wanted to see my favorite girl.”

I’m his favorite girl?

I don’t say anything else. I just remain wrapped around him, breathing in his scent and enjoying his warmth. It’s a bit chilly today. Fall has started to kick in, and I’m jealous of Calum’s beanie right now.

“Would I be able to go upstairs for a sec? I’ve been here for a few hours and really need to pee. I didn’t want to leave in case you came down while I was gone. Didn’t want to miss my chance to surprise you properly.”

I nod against him, untangling my limbs from his. “Yeah, of course,” I breathe out. I take a step back, and he grabs my hand quickly, pulling me back closer to him. He leans down and kisses me, which catches me off guard. This whole thing is catching me off guard and I’m so confused. My brain won’t compute what’s happening.

“Sorry, just needed to kiss you real quick.” He laughs. The smile on his face is still plastered there, unceasing.

I manage to smile slightly at him before I use his hand to pull him toward the door of our building. We climb up the creaky stairs back to our apartment, and I take a deep breath before I open the door to our apartment, hoping Paula and Lucia aren’t gossiping about Calum as we walk in.

Cal’s been here before, of course, so he just heads straight to the bathroom and I whisper to him that I’ll be in the living room when he’s done. Lucia and Paula are waiting patiently for me in the living room, speaking almost silently in Spanish to each other. They look to me excitedly and expectantly, hoping I can share some sort of insights with them as to why Calum is here.

‘He LOVES you’ Paula mouths to me as I sit on an armchair that faces the couch they’re sitting on.

‘STOP’ I mouth back, shooting her an angry glare. The walls in the apartment are thin, and you can usually hear everything if you listen hard enough. I don’t want to risk Calum hearing what she says.

We’re all surprised when we hear a scream and some door slamming.

“Sorry! What the fuck!?” Ilse yells. She must have tried to go to the bathroom. At this point we don’t even knock before we enter it; we’re all so close and familiar we just enter the bathroom whenever we want. It’s four girls and only one bathroom, so we have just given up on privacy in there. When Lucia is here, it’s five girls and one bathroom, so she’s just gotten used to our practice and uses it just like she would if she lived here. It seems that she’s tried to go in while Cal is in there.

I hear her footsteps scurrying to the living room.

“What the hell is Calum doing here?!” Ilse whisper-yells when she gets to us.

“I don’t know!” I whisper-yell back.

We all turn our heads as the sound of the toilet flushing and the door squeaking back open hits our ears, followed by the sound of Cal’s quiet footsteps to the living room.

“Sorry, Ilse — I should’ve locked it. Baño is all yours.” He looks a little embarrassed, but it’s not like we haven’t all seen that infamous Snapchat. “Also, hi everyone. Good to see you.”

“Why are we screaming so early?” Marta’s voice echoes out, and she joins us all in the living room seconds later. It takes a moment for her to register that Calum is here, and then her eyes widen and she freezes in shock. “Calum?”

“Hi Marta! Sorry to wake you up,” he apologizes. He crosses the small space between them and wraps her into a quick hug, and then he hugs Ilse, and then Paula, and then Lucia.

This is weird. This is so weird. He’s met them all before but this just feels so different. None of us could’ve predicted he’d be here this morning.

“We’re gonna go grab breakfast. Do any of you want us to bring you anything back? Coffees?”

He’s met with a chorus of ‘yes please, coffee’ and he nods, looking at me expectantly with a small smile. “Ready to go?”

I nod wordlessly and turn around, heading for the door. I hear Cal’s footsteps behind me quickly, and we leave the apartment once again and get to the street. Almost as some kind of reflex, I grab his hand in mine and start walking toward my favorite breakfast place, assuming that’s where he’d want to go. We walk in silence for a few minutes before he disrupts the quiet.

“Are you okay? You’re pretty quiet.” He squeezes my hand.

I nod again. “Yeah, just kinda stunned, I guess?”

“You didn’t think I’d want to visit you as soon as I could? I wanted to keep it as somewhat of a surprise!” He laughs his sweet, quiet laugh and I feel his thumb rub the back of my hand the way he’s done so many times before.

I clear my throat and shake my head. “No, I didn’t really expect that you’d want to see me again, honestly.”

My shoulder is almost ripped from its socket when Calum suddenly stops walking.

“What?”

I turn around to face him and his expression is a mix of confusion and hurt.

“Why wouldn’t I want to see you again?”

His expression makes my heart hurt a bit. I didn’t mean anything nasty by what I said, but I truly didn’t expect that we’d keep seeing each other now that the European leg is over and tour is over and he can go back to his normal life.

I shrug. “I guess I just thought you’d move on.”

He frowns. “Did you want me to move on?”

No. I didn’t want him to move on. I liked him. I liked him a lot. The idea of us being more than what we were just felt unattainable, so I always assumed he would move on. I was sure there was a girl or two in the other places they went, and surely back in LA there are plenty of girls more suitable for him, other musicians and actresses and influencers; definitely not some random student at UCLA.

“Of course not.”

Calum looks deeply confused and hurt, which wasn’t my intention. I feel bad. “Orion, I really like you. Have I not made that clear?” He’s not being snarky with his question. He sounds genuine and uncertain, which makes me feel worse.

He had been texting me this whole time we’d been apart. He likes everything I post to Instagram. He calls me every week.

Have I just been an idiot this whole time?

“I thought I was just the girl in Europe.”

His eyebrows knit together. “What do you mean?”

“I don’t know, I guess kind of like… a groupie? I was the girl you hung out with in Europe. Maybe just one of the girls? I figured there were others, and you had girls in Asia and America and Australia.”

Calum looks bewildered. “No, no. Orion, this whole time, it’s just been you. I like you. I’m so sorry if I wasn’t clear, because I thought you knew.”

Still in shock, I really don’t know how to reply.

“Shit, Matt had you on our security list as ‘Orion Moss - Calum’s girlfriend.’”

Girlfriend? We’re both silent for a few seconds, the words hanging in the air. I feel like I can almost read them floating in the space between us.

“Am I?”

Now Calum seems to be at a loss for words. He’s still confused, upset almost.

Am I his girlfriend? Do I want to be his girlfriend? I guess that’s a stupid question. Of course I do. I check his tagged photos on Instagram as a pre-bed ritual almost every night. I scroll through the photos we have together in my camera roll constantly; I even made an album of them so they’re all in one place. When he texts me, I have to intentionally make myself wait to reply so I don’t seem too clingy or desperate.

“Do you want to be?” He finally asks.

This time I don’t hesitate. “Yes.”

Relief washes over him and I watch his stress melt away. A smile appears shortly thereafter, and then he’s stepping toward me, kissing me for the second time this morning. There’s a warmth that starts to burn in my chest and I find myself smiling against his lips. He’s here. He’s really here and he likes me.

Calum creates a tiny bit of space between our mouths, just enough that he can speak. “Then please, please be my girlfriend.”

I giggle, feeling like a giddy little kid whose crush just said they like them back on the playground. “I am happy to accept your offer.”

We kiss a bit more, and then I start feeling self conscious when I remember we’re just making out on a sidewalk in Spain’s most populous city, one of the largest cities in Europe, and he’s famous and anyone could see us and post about it. I pull away, saying we can continue it later, and he says he can’t wait.

We resume our walk to the cafe, hand in hand, and I can’t seem to wipe the smile off my face. When I glance at Calum, he’s smiling too. I’m probably happier right now than I have been in a very long time. Once we reach the cafe, he stops.

“Want to get it to go? We can get donuts too and take it to Retiro for a little picnic.” His suggestion sounds perfect, so I agree.

We order our breakfasts — hummus and avocado toast for me, tortilla con jamón for him — and wait a few minutes before they bring it to us. Cal pays, as always, and then we walk to the donut shop that I consider my favorite place in the whole world. We get a four pack of the day’s most unique flavors, along with oat milk cappuccinos to drink, and then we travel the short distance to Retiro, which is bustling as always.

We sit by the pond to watch people using the little paddle boats, and I try to aesthetically set up our spread of food to take a picture. Calum just watches me in amusement while I try to get the perfect shot. Once I’ve got it, I tell him he can start eating. I quickly text the picture to the group chat with my flat mates, whose replies come through instantly, as if they were waiting for me to text them an update (which, to be fair, they probably were).

“it’s just casual” mY MF ASSSSS

At the last message, I roll my eyes, locking my phone and putting it into my back pocket. I look up from my phone and find Calum’s camera pointed at me. The shutter goes off as soon as I make eye contact with the lens.

“Just wanna remember this moment,” he gushes, smiling so sweetly at me before putting his phone away too.

We then dig in to the spread, but of course it’s far too much food for the two of us. I know we’ll bring whatever is left back to my apartment and the girls will inhale it all, so it’s fine. I get to listen to lots more tour stories from Calum than he’s shared over text or on our brief phone calls, and I tell him more about my classes and the little adventures I’ve gone on with my roommates. It’s so nice getting to talk to him again. It’s so easy, and it feels right, and I just feel so giddy about the fact that it wasn’t just a casual thing. It’s real, and it’s serious.

It’s then that I realize it, and I don’t know what took me so long. I now know I was in denial, but it’s clear as day while we sit in this park.

I am completely and utterly in love with Calum Hood.

i’m pretty sure 90% of mentally ill people have this song saved tbh

2. teeth — 5 seconds of summer

okay i was a 1d stan but somehow never really became a huge 5sos fan? but i do really like some of their songs and this is one that itches my brain just right

3. hit the road jack — ray charles

do i even need to explain??? 100000/10. a classic bop.

4. floorboards — noah henderson

i actually don’t remember saving this or ever hearing it before but listening to it now that it’s come up on shuffle i ??? wow??? okay. wow. yeah. glad i saved this.

5. e-girls are ruining my life — corpse, ga$p

look. shut the fuck up. shut up. 2020 was insane. i held onto anything i could possibly enjoy. this song is very fun to sing along to at full volume after working 12 hours and actively resisting the urge to drive into the ocean. i don’t really listen to it anymore unless it happens to come up on shuffle. shut up.

for every 🎸 i receive, i’ll make a playlist of 5+ songs from my music on shuffle!

Hi fellow writer💜

I saw this post on my tl and liked to questions, so I decided to answer them!

1. Tbh I write in Calibri because it's a really nice font, I don't know...

2. I could write stories by hands, I already do it before writing them on my computer. It feels right to write them on paper first, it's like the words flow with the emotions already attached to them. And I write sometimes with a pen, sometimes with a pencil, sometimes both.

3. I don't have a cursed writing ritual, at least I think... But I write with music all the time, and I have to listen to music that fits the plot, the mood and the characters of the story.

4. Pet names and smooth talking in general (and dirty talk too :) ) but if we're talking feral as in angry I just hate to read the world member ugh.

5. I don't think I have any writing superstition, or I just don't know about it maybe...

6. Either that someone from my family finds out about it and don't approve or that I receive hateful comments about my work :(

7. Feeling like I'm living the story with my characters, and dreaming about what happens next in the plot haha.

8. I think I would choose to write without dialogue, because honestly I feel like I don't write good dialogues already so I guess I could do without??? I don't know...

9. They sound cool in principle and I believe ghosts exists but not in our plane of existence.

10. As in it's always in the back of my mind and giving me anxiety? God yes, there a thing I wrote like almost four years ago in French ( it's my first language) and I find it soooo cringe I can't even look at it, but I really liked the plot and I want to go back and write it in English. I physically cannot open the document without cringing :(

11. I am inable of killing characters and especially my darlings. I can't hurt them,I can make them suffer but I just can't kill anyone.

12. To not have writing block anymore, to write better and less awkward dialogues, and please let me write sudden actions without introducing them with "suddenly " I am begging you !

13. It's not really a subject but I can't write endings for the love of everything holy, I can't start a story just fine,I can write scenes and make them fit someway together but ending a story other than an os ? Impossible.

14. I don't lend books. Ever. At all. The only time I ever did, I got back my book an eternity after in the most awful state possible. I learned my mistake... Maybe I can learn to lend books again, but only to someone I trust or someone who reads a lot and knows how to take care of books.

15. I don't write in my books at all, but I do dog-ear my pages, and I read on the bathroom, and everyone I know judges me and thinks I'm weird for all of that :/ And of course we can still be friends, I don't judge 💜

16. Wow, I actually don't even remember the last time I used a bookmark haha, I usually just dog-ear my pages.

17. Sadly I don't have a current WIP, but I'm trying to worldbuild for a story, and I am trying to write all my headcanons about mythical species like vampires who get affect by the blood moon and get really irritated and act a lot on instinct during it, naga people, mermaids, etc...

18. It's not really a passage, but kind of a whole fic I wrote that literally spiraled from me listening to Teeth by 5SOS, and it was really fun to write. Here :

19. I actually started during quarantine because I was reading a lot of fanfiction at that time (still do haha) and I thought to myself "Why not do something like that?" I wrote a lot during that time, but all that stuff I really cringe and my style was awful and redundant back then. I struggled a lot with writing anything because I had words but my way of putting them together was awful and confusing, if that makes sense. My writing style evolved a lot from then to now, and while I still struggle with Writer's block and some details, I am proud of my works on ao3 and I don't cringe while rereading them sooo :)

20. That... is such a hard question. I would loooove to live in eternal happiness with my one true love buuuut, my dearest WIP would be just amazing and mind blowing of it could be published in the way I want... Aaaah, I just can't choose !!!

21. I don't think I could ever quit writing. I love doing it so much, and it gets to the point that I daydream and sometimes actually dream the plots I want to write.

22. I am sooo disorganised! I have a box where I keep all the things I wrote, and it's just pure chaos. I can find my way through it pretty easily, but anyone else would probably lose their minds just looking at it.

23. Hmm, it depends on the time. Just recently though, I wrote on my bed, in my room, at midnight. It was sooo dark,and the only light I had was the dimmed light of my phone screen. I was writing on stray papers that I stacked on a notebook, and I had the notes on my closed laptop on my lap. There also was a plug that emited a nice dark blue light on a little spot on the ceiling. I liked writing during the dead of the night, while everyone around me was sleeping. There's a window right behind my bed but it doesn't provide much light, and that's why I rely on my phone.

24. It depends on the story but I usually do prep work to stays as anatomically acurate as possible, and to not get canon details wrong. I don't mind doing prep work cuz I sometimes get to discover new things I'd like to incorporate into my story.

25. One of my characters just doesnt like some clothes and food textures, like velvet for example. That fact is completely and totally irrelevant to the plot. I just like it that way cuz I can relate :)

26. I usually listen to songs that remind me of them or that weirdly got linked to that character when I first heard it. Music is a big part of my writing habit and I like to use it in many different ways. I don't think I've ever struggled to get out of a character's head, but I have made myself sad to the point of crying while putting myself in their place sometimes.

27. Just recently I wrote about a character, Yancy from ahwm, that had an accent. I really wanted to write about them, but I was sooo afraid of messing the accent up because the accent is what makes the character recognizable and it is really hard to retranscribe in dialogues in my opinion.

28. I think the most delightful character I've ever written about is Sora from the Kingdom Hearts series, he's just so happy and optimistic and he loves everyone around him. Just writing him gives me joy :)

29. Honestly, music is probably my biggest source of inspiration, and fanfictions come right after. Music can provide me with lots of things; sometimes I listen to a song and I can imagine a whole scene around it, sometimes a sad song can put me in just the right mindset to write angst, etc... As for when I run dry, I still haven't found a way to help it, I just wait until inspiration comes back or force myself to write in hopes it snaps back or something.

30. Dreams play a big role in my writing life, because I sometimes end up dreaming about a good plot and using that idea. I just watch the plot happen like a movie in front of me, and sometimes I bring modifications to it in the dream.

31. My readers are honestly the best. Just the fact that they read my works on ao3, leave kudos and appreciate it makes me happy :) and the readers who leave reviews are a balm to my anxious heart. But I love all my readers, silent or not 💜

32. “Your violin is a very special object.

- Why is that?

- It keeps bringing us back together.”

It's a piece of dialogue form one of the best fanfics I've ever read on ao3, called The Violin, and it's a WWII romance. I loved it, and each time I reread it, it still fills me with emotions. I was just browsing ao3 when I found this fic and God I don't regret it.

33. I am trying to learn how to draw, and I am quite terrible at it, even if I'm hoping to improve soon. But sometimes I like to doodle stuff related to the characters I write about, or the fandoms I obsess about at the moment.

34. Just meh. Sometimes I use it, sometimes I don't. Depends.

35. Hmm, tough question. I'm of those people who learned English through speaking and listening, and not really through rules, so my grammar is quite shaky. The rule I usually go back is if it sounds good, it must be correct.

36. What do I know? I know words, and I try to use them as correctly as possible. I know emotions and I try to convey them. I know humans, or at least some of them, and I try to show how complex they are. I don't know many things but I try to use what I know wisely.

37. That I must have been weird weird person, and that my interests were really odd. I hope they at least find what I've written good.

38. I think the some weird things in my writing process ( or most likely what people find weird in mine) are that I have to write on paper first, I just don't feel comfortable in typing a new story, I have to write it first. I also have to be kind of immersed in music that fits what I'm writing about, and not be bothered because I lose my thoughts and words very easily. I don't actually know of this is weird but ehhh...

Also I really think cats see us as big floof-less cats that need warmth and cuddles.

39. Honestly, my IRL friends. Bless them for being really supportive and providing feed back to my stories. They help me when I feel blocked and unable to write and make my inspiration flourish 💜

40. I'm sooo sorry I don't know anything about poems T-T

17. Talk to me about the minutiae of your current WIP. Tell me about the lore, the history, the detail, the things that won’t make it in the text.

19. Tell me a story about your writing journey. When did you start? Why did you start? Were there bumps along the way? Where are you now and where are you going?

20. If a witch offered you the choice between eternal happiness with your one true love and the ability to finally finish, perfect, and publish your dearest, darlingest, most precious WIP in exactly the way you've always imagined it — which would you choose? You can’t have both sorry, life’s a bitch
