#thank you for this lovely ask

(In the Tommy AU) Do you think the first time Ice sees Maverick, he freaks out a bit because he might’ve just found Stacee Jaxx’s lovechild?

AHHHH STACEE JAXX 😂😂😂 Oh no, it’s actually soooo much worse. He and Stacee had a thing. Hence the matching pistol tattoos 👀 Mav looking like Stacee is because Ice has a type, 😂😂😂

Aww man, thank you so much! I am very happy that you enjoy my style of story-telling and the stories I write! Thank you very much for those kind words!

As a fellow road sparrow lover, I just want to say it’s always a joy to see your stuff on my dash! 🤎

Oh, I'm glad to hear (read?) that my love of sparrows has found you, fellow sparrow appreciator! I'm really abnormal about birds in general. They are so wonderful.

Also, I was so happy to see a sparrow sticker available for the adventure plates. I would love to see more birbs visuals though... aaaah....

Hi!

Sorry to bother you, I just wanted to say thank you so much for sharing your talent for writing with us. Your writing has so much personality and your prose is so fluid and entertaining!!

Every Saturday (since I started reading the fic ofc), I get so excited when I see the taglist notification. Sometimes I can't help myself and I read it right away because I'm so eager, and sometimes I force myself to have self control and wait until before bed to read it, just so I can end my day on a good note. When I read your writing, I'm smiling and giggling almost the whole time, it always puts me in a good mood. I always look forward to your posts, even if it's not a new chapter, I enjoy reading your thoughts and responses to your readers as well🫶🏼

But, although your writing is amazing and you have lots of people eager to read the next chapters of the story, please take care of yourself. Your value as a writer is not determined by how much you write or how fast you write it. I don't know you personally, but you seem like a really cool person. I just wanted to remind you to eat, sleep, drink water, spend time with friends and family, etc, because you deserve to be happy too, especially since you're giving us readers so much happiness through your writing.

Anyways, sorry that got so long, i got a little carried away 😅 I'm kind of a passionate person (couldn't you tell lol) No need to respond to this, I just hope you see it and remember to take breaks and extra time if you need it. Your readers will be excited for whenever you decide to post, even if it's not every week :)

Hi!!! You're never a bother to me!!! 🥺 This was so sweet to see in my inbox. Thank you, really. It makes me so happy to see the reactions and hear how much everyone is enjoying the story. It's what keeps me going. Sure, I write mostly for myself, but I share it so others can enjoy it, and seeing others enjoy it really is just so motivating. Y'all are the reason the fic has even made it this far. I know I say that a lot, but it's the truth.

I'm working on taking care of myself and not treating myself like a content machine. I know I tend to get excited and want to release chapter after chapter so that people can see what happens in the fic and so I can get to all the exciting parts faster. I know that's the quickest way to burn out though, because I've done that to myself before. I don't really want that to happen, so I've been giving myself some grace and allowing myself to take my time with this fic.

Don't forget to take care of yourself too. Life is hard and it's easy to forget to do that.

KIWI! Quick, it’s an emergency!!

*holds you seriously, but gently, by your lil kiwi face*

I had to tell you……how adorable you are today!!! 💚🥝💜

THEO! Giving me jumpscares like that! 💚💕

💜💕 *Showers your face with little kissies.*

Thank you, but not as adorable as you are every single day! 💚

youre sick for the prof geto cliffhanger... had me silent screaming and on the verge of tears...

HAHAHAHA I love it

sorry I’m known for cliffhangers in a series - get used to it :). I had so much fun figuring it out and honestly having that ending was the reason I made it into a series - because I knew the ending would be too fun to write.

fun fact: I rewatched the good place like two weeks before writing this — ended up being very influential in writing the fic. pls watch that show if you never have!! very very good.

Hi!! Firstly, I love your les mis fanfic works, 1000/10. And secondly, I was wondering whether your original books have a lot of spice in them? It's not really my cup of tea but I desperately want to read anything and everything you've ever written, especially if it involves your own characters!!

Hi there! OMG thank you so much--I'm really glad you're enjoying them <3 My pirate books (which were originally a Les Mis fic lo these many years ago) actually aren't spicy at all. There is on-page kissing and discussion of and references to sex + a couple of artful/closed-door flashbacks where applicable, but definitely not high spice levels by any means. So, I think you should be good to go. If you pick them up, I really hope you enjoy! I'm super excited to have the whole trilogy out for folks to read!

T: Any fanfic tropes you can’t stand? U: Is there a pairing you would like to write, but haven’t tried yet.

V: Are there certain comments you’ve received on your stories that have stuck with you?

❤️❤️❤️

T: Any fanfic tropes you can’t stand?

I'm personally not the biggest fan of the omegaverse. I see the appeal and I have enjoyed the occasional fic involving the trope, but generally it's not for me. But I'll never judge anyone for enjoying it. What I like certainly isn't everyone's cup of tea either that's for sure

U: Is there a pairing you would like to write, but haven’t tried yet.

mhhh it takes me a bit to get into a pairing and right now nothing is truly itching at my fingertips sadly

V: Are there certain comments you’ve received on your stories that have stuck with you?

definitely. There is a series of three comments that someone left on one of my old hockey fics that were so detailed that I couldn't believe someone took the time to write them. Then of course the comment my lovely best friend left on the fic i wrote her for christmas.

And especially the comments many people left on my fic Twice As Many Stars. It deals with a heavy topic and I was surprised how many people reading it found themselves in it. I knew of course I was writing about a real life issue people deal with but I didn't know my writing was good enough for people to identify with it, to thank me for giving my character a happy ending.

OMG so excited for part 4 of your Bull fic! Cant wait, also you are so funny, the tags of your Cowboy Bull post😂😂

Heheheh you think I’m funny!! I need to get this Bull fic out pronto so I can then hyper-fixate on Cowboy Malarkey!! AhahHahh

for the writing meme: 1, 5, 37!

hiiii love! thank you very much for sending me some questions! I love answering things like this hehe :)

1) What fic of yours would you recommend to someone who had never read any of your work? (In other words, what do you think is the best introduction to your fics?)

This is gonna sound corny, but it would be my 50 types of kisses series (which I really do need to get back to working on!) because i think most people would say they know my writing for my deancas kisses? I know several followers and friends who found me because of that 50 kisses series and it makes me really proud and happy that people enjoy the way i write dean and cas kisses hehe <3

5) What do you wish someone would ask you about your fics? Answer it now!

I kinda altered this question because idk if there’s a specific question from a specific fic I could think of on the spot right now. I think i wish someone would ask about why i like writing fluff so much? And if they did, i would say something like, because there’s something about fluff that just feels so… tender. something that i myself yearn for. I yearn to be kissed the way i write kisses. I yearn to be loved and cherished the way i write my characters. I yearn to feel the warm touch and sweetness that i treat my characters to. I think that’s why i love writing fluff so much, because i ache for it so deeply myself that writing it is a way for me to experience it.

37) Promote one of your own “deep cut” fics (an underrated one, or one that never got as much traction as you think it deserves!) What do you like about it?

I instantly knew which fic i wanted to ‘promo’ for this question.

whisper your name without making a noise

I feel like this is my biggest underrated fic and never got the traction i wanted it to. I desperately wanted this to match the level of attention my regarding!dean fic got. I worked so tirelessly on this fic, had the idea for like a year and finally worked up the courage to write it. I wanted a fic of angst and yet realness. I spent days and hours on end researching trauma and mutism and how to write it with respect and care. I wanted the scene where dean goes into the empty to be raw and powerful and something unique and different. I wanted dean’s emotions to speak louder than words. I loved this journey dean goes on where he unpacks his emotions and trauma and never gives up on getting cas back. I love this fic more than any other fic I’ve ever written. It feels like my magnum opus of fics.

questions for fic writers!

star trek strange new worlds s2 teaser did not just tease our homegirl christine chapel have some romantic moments with both spock AND m"benga?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!

win for the multishipper chapel girlies.

i also would want to be a queer prodigy who has sexual chemistry with her sexy starfleet superiors in another life.

I apologize, anon, I missed this ask until now. 💕

Homegirl was definitely busy in the trailer and I love that for her. Multishipper Chapel girlie celebration toast! 🥂

(I love SNW but, honestly, I would watch a show that was just Majel Barrett legacy characters — Christine, Una, Lwaxana, M’Ress, and the computer voice — having various Adventures ™️ and Shenanigans™️.)

Being on the nostalgia train this week really helped stretching my artistic legs again. So here, have some old things and some new! For now I'm done with this.
