The Killing Type - Teen Wolf - Chris Argent/Stiles Stilinski - Kudos: 464

Do you respond to comments? Yes. Every time if I can help it. Maybe not immediately but as soon as I can.

What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? Could Use Some - Justified - Boyd Crowder/Raylan Givens - character death Most of the time I write, if not happy, then hopeful endings. I’ve got a tons where someone or multiple people die but this is the only one where it’s misery from start to finish.

What is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? The one I personally feel the happiest/most hopeful at the end of? Same as the one I receive the most thank you notes for having written when people finish it. TT_TT TW fans are soooo sweet (to me) (personally) (as long as I don’t write Sterek breakup fic again) Rinse Cycle The one the characters themselves are the happiest at the end of? Happy Campers. Sorry folks I don’t make the rules. Just cause they’re insane serial killers doesn’t mean they aren’t really happy to be where they’re at.

Do you get hate on fics? The closest I’ve gotten was Sterek shippers being upset that Sterek wasn’t endgame even though I TAGGED IT THOROUGHLY that it was not Sterek endgame and warned repeatedly that it wouldn’t be nice to Sterek.

Do you write smut? Haha. Yeah.

Craziest crossover? I’ve not technically written any crossovers

Have you ever had a fic stolen? There was an issue a really long time ago of some website reposting my stuff without permission and claiming it as original work but I’ve never seen someone in any fandom take my stuff. Don’t really get why they would. You’re not exactly going to rise to meteoric fame with it. I was, for a while, making it a hobby of dropping fic of people’s favorite pairing into their inbox anonomously as a gift that I explicitly said they could claim as their own if they wanted but that was a separate thing.

Have you ever had a fic translated? I’ve had people ask if they could but I’ve not seen if they did.

Have you ever co-written a fic before? Not in-fandom but I have done collaborative short stories with friends and such before. Or popcorn stories. Writing with friends is fun and great actually.

All time favorite ship? I’m a multishipper but I can tell you the ones that I think are really fun in a couple of fandoms I enjoy. Teen Wolf: Chris Argent/Stiles (as you can see from the above list of pop fic) Stiles Stilinski/Jackson Whitmore; Lydia Marten/Allison Argent ; Scott McCall/Allison Argent ; Scott McCall/Erica Reyes ; Erica Reyes/Vernon Boyd ; Scott McCall/Erica Reyes/Allison Argent ; Isaac Lahey/Scott McCall ; Lydia Marten/Stiles Stilinski ; Derek Hale/antidepressants Grimm: Monroe/Nick Burkhardt ; Nick/Monroe/Rosalee/Juliet/Hank/Adalind ; Nick Burkhardt/Adalind Shade ; Hank Griffin/Juliet Silverton ; Eve/Eve Justified: Boyd Crowder/Raylan Givens ; Raylan Givens/Tim Gutterson ; Frances Givens/Mags Bennett ; Dickie Bennett/Dewey Crowe ; Raylan Givens/Ava Crowder ; Raylan Givens/Ava Crowder/ Boyd Crowder

Leverage: Parker/Hardison/Elliot Star Trek: Spirk. Longer list than I intended… whoops.

What’s a wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will? Look. I came back and finished a fic after a six year hiatus where I wrote literally nothing at all. Maybe it’s not now. Maybe it’s not ten years from now. But so long as I have air in my lungs, I’ll come back eventually.

What are your writing strengths? I was gonna make a joke about “volume” but I think Willow might hunt me down if I said something disparaging here so I would say I pride myself on making the blocking and sequence of action easy to follow (unless the point is that you’re not supposed to be able to follow it). I like to make it so action can be traced and that if something is picked up, it’s put down, you know?

What are your writing weaknesses? I am literally incapable of picking just one description. If a run on sentence could be a person, it’s fucking me unkindly.

Thoughts on dialogue in another language? Do your best. Try to be respectful. Everyone fucks up but that doesn’t mean trying should be off the table. Take feedback gracefully about it.

First fandom you wrote in? Hhhhhh I think Sherlock was the first?

Favorite fic you’ve written? I'm not sure I have any favorites. I will say that I am so unaccountably pleased by how One More Sweet Boy To Be Butchered By Men came out that I get stage fright when I go to work on the sequel.

@imytheone WHOO

I HAVE COMPLETED THE DRAWING!!

I shall also tag @allmightyscroll-swag as well cuz I like tagging em in oc related stuff :3

While I have drawn the siblings profiles, and Brittany making some appearances, Imma tell you MORE information about them!! >:D

One quick thing: These four are my oldest ocs (along with two others but you don't know em eheheh) from 2020 and at the time of making them I had just found out what Helluva Boss is. These characters were very much inspired off of them, especially Cici and Brittany.

Let's start off with the youngest:

CICI

Like I said, she is the youngest being around 6-7 years old

Pronouns are she/her, I'll just say aroace since I don't picture her being in a relationship at her age-

Cici is part demon thanks to her mother, but hasn't developed horns or a tail yet.

However, she has some powers, that being super strength and flight!

She can't fly very high, although she is the strongest in the family; being able to lift around the same weight as a van full of people. The older you get, the weaker your powers would become; so their mother would have the weakest powers.

Cici swears more than Onika and Zeke, mainly because of her mother. She gets in trouble at school regularly for this. That and for throwing chairs around. And for biting teachers' ankles. She gets in trouble for a lot of things.

Like all children, she has tantrums at times. But, of course, hers tend to get more...violent. Usually ending up with someone breaking a bone or two.

For hobbies, Cici enjoys drawing, roleplaying with toys and making things (whether that's with Lego or metal scraps-)

She doesn't listen to music as much as her siblings do, but her favourite artists are Pharrel Williams and Five Finger Death Punch.

She has insomnia and has a lot of difficulty sleeping.

Her and Onika love watching TMNT together, and are currently on Rise.

Cici's original design was heavily based off the girl with the large bow and brown curly hair that appeared in the first episode of HB. I was quite unoriginal at the time lol.

ONIKA

Onika is the middle child, being 15 years old.

Her pronouns are she/they, and they are also aroace.

Onika's powers aren't as strong as Cici's, but she can fly better and can piggy-back the weight of two adults.

Onika technically has a tail, but it's now a stub because a group of bullies cut it off.

Yeah. She was bullied when she was younger. She was jeered for being both demon and human, and neither species wanted to be friends with her.

This was also mainly because she had anger issues which caused her to have violent episodes if provoked enough, one time being she almost killed a teenager younger than her.

Luckily, she's gotten better now and is practically never violent. Except in Mariokart.

Onika is usually either hyperactive and energetic, or utterly lazy and unmotivated.

She desperately wants to get Maori tattoos like Zeke but her parents don't allow her.

She hates wearing skirts and having her hair down.

Onika doesn't have a lot of hobbies, but she enjoys trying new foods, skateboarding and playing the guitar.

Her favourite artists are AC/DC, Metallica, Twisted Sister and Iron Maiden.

I'm pretty sure I based the hair off of another character I saw online once, but I can't remember her name- all I know is that the hair isn't original:'D

ZEKE

Zeke is the oldest at 19 years old.

His pronouns are he/him and he's gay.

Zeke uses his powers the least and only really uses them for miniscule tasks around the house like moving a bed or fighting his sister.

Yeah. Zeke and Onika fight a lot, more physically than verbally, and it's usually for stupid reasons, like who rightfully had the bag of pretzels first.

Zeke has both a tail and horns (which are still growing).

He also has difficulty with keeping his body temperature warm, so he wears a lot of layers and a lot of black to keep in as much heat as possible.

He has Maori tattoos along the back of his left shoulder as well as part of the left arm, but rarely shows these to people.

Zeke has been teased by many to have a "baby face", which annoys him greatly.

He can be mostly found in his bedroom gaming, listening to music or curled up in a ball in bed.

He likes sleeping. A lot.

His favourite games to play are mainly action/shooter games (I'm not an expert in this department so feel free to decide which ones he likes playing) and occasionally likes to play RPGs.

His favourite artists are Green Day, Linkin Park and The Offspring.

BRITTANY

Brittany is also 19 years old and is best friends with Zeke.

Her pronouns are she/her and is an asexual lesbian.

She practically has no powers. She can float a little, but not much else.

Brittany is a very affectionate person and adores hugging, cuddling, complimenting and kissing people (non-romantically).

She also adores fizzy drinks and cats. She ADORES cats. And animals in general.

If she was to encounter a cat, whether that be an anthropomorphic one or not, she will give them double the amount of affection.

When Brittany's happy, she wags her tail about, shakes her hands and squeals. She does this quite often.

She can be extremely chatty and talkative and could go on for hours on end talking about almost anything.

However, Brittany is extremely clumsy and is prone to falling down the stairs, tripping, running into windows and/or getting her horns stuck in things.

Her hobbies are shopping, going to cafés and watching romcoms.

Her favourite movie is Love, Actually and her favourite artists are Ariana Grande and Twice.

Her original design was heavily based off of Verosika from Helluva, and I still can't let go of the long white hair + pink skin combo :') Fortunately, I think I've managed to differentiate Brittany from her, or I hope-

OKAY I AM NOW DONE I should be sleeping-

[wizard-finix]

Should the next Zelda game be open world like BOTW & TotK, or linear like the prior games? Why?

Hot take, but definitely a little more linear.

Listen, I love open world as much as anyone. BOTW did a fantastic job at it! The main storyline split up into four threads across the regions and then converged again for the final boss, which I though was cool to be able to pick a region and work on it at your pace. But it needs to be done *well*. TOTK's story suffered a bit because when you met the past champions, they coughed up the exact same explanation four times, and it got old fast. BOTW managed to avoid this because each of the champions' appearances and personalities were unique, which just shows you that it can be done well, it just has to be written with that in mind.

Not to mention critical story beats are optional, not required (see: the dragon's tears), and if you head straight to the boss fight without realizing that you've missed important information, you end up losing some of that significance because you're not fully aware of what's going on. And you risk major spoilers if you try to look up what you're missing before the boss fight. (seriously, imagine going through the Demon King boss fight not knowing anything about draconification or the light dragon.)

Also, the storyline and characters don't get much chance to build off themselves. The new sages don't interact because each region quest operates under the assumption that you haven't done any of the others yet. I want the cast to interact a bit! The moment where the new sages all took a stand together? That was excellent! I miss having companions like Fi and Midna and Ravio that stick with you for your entire journey, rather than going it alone.

Also, most important of all: I need *some* objective to focus on or I'm never going to actually finish the dang story. I love vibing and seeing the sights and exploring the depths for treasure, but there's a reason why I never finished Skyrim despite having played ~200 hours. 😂

Nintendo seems to focus more on mechanics and gameplay than the storyline for a lot of their Zelda games. Which is fine! It is a game at the end of the day, and it's genuinely fun to play! And I don't mind the classic style of unlocking new regions as you go through the main quest, but I don't think linear storylines and open worlds have to be mutually exclusive, either. Technology has come so far in the past decades, and the BOTW and TOTK maps are excellent for exploring all the nooks and crannies and meeting the people of Hyrule. I do enjoy side questlines to fill out the world a bit! Wind Waker and Twilight Princess had them too! Heck, I loved the Hateno and Yiga questlines! Just, y'know, maybe help us not lose sight of what we're supposed to do along the way.

[marshmallowloves]

🩹 for Chrom, Maxie, or Pit!!! (@frankmillerturnonyourlocation :D)

@frankmillerturnonyourlocation

wtf is it with these 🩹 asks and making me stay up till 3:30 AM coloring the thing I didn't plan to color..........

anyway Maxie was the only one of those three I could think of anything good for... cause I actually already had this exact idea 8 years ago in a drawpile with Lee kjdfg

as a bonus here's that old doodle so you can see how much my art has changed 👀 holy heck dude this thing is dated June 2016

[syahan-system]

Follow up to a previous headspace question. So the distance between the bubbles, when you walk between them does it feel like a long walk/takes a bit but its real quick? Or just you know its a long walk but its fast

Hmm. Well, first, the fires aren’t bubbles. They’re just kinda like, campfires out in the Void. They don’t have bubbles.

So, I’m not really sure. It’s like… the time/space between gets skipped over. It’s weird. We know it’s a long distance, but it doesn’t take that long. I guess?

[the-colours-system]

I just want to say you are really interesting and very cool! And Ace is a very good girl!/p

!!!! Interesting? That’s a new one!/pos

She says Xelxkskskskxkskskskltarune o co elk

[perfektblau]

it's nobody's fault that one has such fragile ego to the point they need to make a callout post over some shit like that

and having a tantrum over gatobob not bending her back over for you

tired of people blowing shit out of proportion and bullying creators like this

fuck off with this witch hunting

because at the end, you're not doing any shit for justice. you just want to see her get crucified and feel good about it and boost your fragile ego

[ciciyup]

Hello! I read your yandere record of ragnarok fics and I really enjoyed them! I have this question (I hope it doesn't count as a request but if it does feel free to delete this), how would the gods react if they learned that their human darling is a virgin? Would they like it or even care at all?

Hi, anon! I'm glad you enjoyed the fics⁠♡ and don't worry, this doesn't count as a request.

I think it would depend a lot on whether we are talking about yandere or not and also what character it is, they play important roles.

If he were Poseidon but in a yandere! version, I think he would feel more territorial when discovering that his s/o is intact and he is the first to "deflower" her, in addition to feeling more possessive.

If we were talking about Poseidon non-yandere version I don't think he would care much since his s/o is now with him, he wouldn't worry about it. Whether his s/o was a virgin or not, Poseidon knows he can handle her better (in his own way).

The same thing happens with the other characters, but as I already said it would depend a lot on which character we were talking about and if it is a yandere! version or not.

I hope I was able to answer your question (⁠^⁠‿⁠^⁠)

[c00kietin]

I don't know too much about your ocs,(and it was hard to find names, sorry) but I'm curious, so the third one if they were all in alphabetical order in their Pyjamas😴 (only if you want to obviously)

while I didn't draw all my characters (that would take a LONG time lol) I drew some of my more well known ones on the blog!

Some lil sleeping bits if ya don't mind:

Tenebris kinda has old-fashioned pajamas, with the night gown and striped shirt and jazz. I was tempted to draw one of those caps on them but I decided not to. They like to have their hair tied up by assistants so it's not as much of a mess in the morning. And they MUST have a glass of water before sleeping, no exceptions.

Brittany wears cutesy (and usually pricey) night dresses or t-shirt and shorts. She especially loves pairs with frills, lace or fluff. She has a long routine of doing her face and hair and teeth before going to bed, so she takes a while before she actually sleeps. Brittany also owns a huge collection of toys and plushies that she keeps around her like a barricade.

Valerie has tried to adjust to sleeping at night to blend in with people, but sleeps a lot better during the day. She wouldn't wear anything elaborate, just a top and tracksuit legs do just well for her. She listens to white noise to help her sleep.

Zeke likes to wear fluffy/thick, long sleeved pajamas to keep him warm. And he sleeps with a lot of blankets and pillows. He goes to bed the earliest of the three siblings- and sleeps the best.

Natalie's sleeping schedule is wonky since she tends to go out with friends at night. So, coming back home, she just throws on whatever she finds first and snoozes in that. Natalie's also the kind of person to wake up with half the blanket on the floor and sleeping upside down. She snores loudly.

Onika wears oversized t-shirts and shorts, and has her hair tied up as always. She goes to sleep fairly easily, but wakes up extremely early all the time. She likes to sleep up high, so she has a bunk bed. She uses the bottom bunk to dump all her stuff onto.

Choco Fish Cookie isn't too picky about what she wears to bed but likes night gowns. She reads a few pages of a book and hums to herself to help her fall asleep. She doesn't own any toys, so she hugs a pillow instead while she's sleeping. She's slept with her eyes open once or twice before.

Cici struggles sleeping a LOT. She has a mixture of maintenance insomnia and sleep apnea and sleeps for very few hours in a week. She keeps a nightlight on in her bedroom at all times. You'd most likely spot her in the kitchen making herself toast.
