[raayllum]

got tagged in the wip game by a few people w/ the challenge to tag someone for all your wips! however i have over 50+ wips / just oneshots planned (not including multipchap) so i'm just gonna share like my top 10 and then call it a day!

oneshots:

a different man / mirror traps: Lissa comes back to Katolis for her daughter’s wedding and meets her husband’s ghost. Or the "Lissa meets Callum" fic, probably a sorta sequel to this fic

providence: post-s5 divergent. A spell gone wrong traps Callum inside the mirror with Aaravos. 

the goal of living is to grow: After a love contained only to chaos and summers, Rayla and Callum experience the other seasons side by side. post-s6, planned to be like 20k, Rayla/Callum

just stand still: In Katolis, you come of age at sixteen; Ezran just misses his dad.

mama's boys: Sarai's sons grow up without her. Ezran&Callum

blinded: Miyana, and the Sunfire royal family. Miyana/Karim

nine days: It takes nine days for Harrow and Viren to reach the Storm Spire. Set pre-series and 3x06. Viren/Harrow

i asked you to be human: AU where Kasef makes different choices in s3, and lives.

being this young is art: Servants talk. Callum/Rayla dealing with court gossip

great responsiblity: Modern AU. Ezran is bitten by a radioactive spider when he’s fourteen years old. Trio & Ezran centric

why is it a monster: Ezran finds the mirror first. Canon divergent

multi-chap

virtues and vices: Slowly but surely, Soren and Opeli find their way. Soren/Opeli, 9 chapters

i did one thing right: Supporters of Viren’s ‘royal’ line were not so easily deterred, and now a twenty-year old Ezran has a choice to make: to either allow civil war, or to marry the old friend turned enemy threatening to topple his throne (the shadowy elf whispering in her ear notwithstanding). ? chapters, divergent post-s3, aged up Claudia/Ezran slowburn

sequel to "if time is money" (about 20ish chapters) scheduled for more focus post-s6 (Rayla and Tiadrin centric with a heavy serving of Runaan and Ethari)

[igotsnothing]

people you'd like to get to know better!!

Thanks for the tag, @dryfrooot! Love getting know folks better! ❤️

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

last song: I've been listening to "I Remember" by deadmau5 & Kaskade (John Summit Remix).

favorite color: Cobalt and crimson

currently watching: The Bear and now I am driving everyone here at home nuts by replying to any requests with "YES, CHEF!"

sweet/savory/spicy: Savory, savory, savory. I don't like sweets that much, I like spicy, but spicy doesn't like me...But savory? A cheese platter? Hello!

relationship: Yes.

current obsession: So many... But, let's say my ocs, Gideon and Sasha. I love all my ocs, but for some reason I am particularly focused on these two.

last thing you googled: The booking form for an appointment at my hairdresser, which probably took infinitely longer to do than if I had simply called the salon but I am an introvert and would rather deal with 500 captchas to prove I am not a robot than talk to a stranger on the phone. Beep boop! Halp!

WHO DO I WANT TO KNOW BETTER? If you're reading this and we don't interact often, take this as an invitation- I'll LOVE it. ❤️

But I'm still tagging...@moonfromearth, @hamasutaa, @nocturnalazure, @smok3inm1rrors, @chaoticpixls, @sirianasims, and as you all know, @greighish is on hiatus, but WHEN HAS THAT EVER STOPPED ME? Do this if you want to, at will and with adult supervision.😉

Five characters poll game

Thanks for tagging me, @rekishi-aka!

Rules: Make a poll with five of your all time favorite characters and then tag five people to do the same. See which character is everyone's favorite.

I could have made a much longer list. (Who couldn't have?) But I guess that the crew of problematic faves listed here is pretty representative of what I love in characters (and people) generally:

Loyalty, kindness, intelligence, general competence, protectiveness, ability to manipulate others when strictly necessary, a certain degree of emotional unavailability/trauma/the kind of wisdom that life inevitably teaches you if you stick around long enough, the ability to take responsiblity for one's mistakes and most importantly personal itegrity i.e. having a moral compass that does not waver even in the face of adversity.

Except for the people already tagged by @rekishi-aka, (all of whom I will not tag again for that reason) I have no idea who has been tagged yet.

So I' m tagging (and going a bit overboard - because I simply cannot limit myself to a set of only five two times in a row):

@thefortysecondolive @opheliagreif @greenleaves-never @hail-the-underdogs @its-about-the-acethetic @schwefelfellchen @andrej-delany @betweentimes @stan-the-cinnamon-roll-uris @onyxravensstuff

As always, everybody else who would like to play should feel free to do so. I, for one, really enjoy learning about people's problematic faves.

What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? That's all of them - I write fic for the happy fluffy feelings

Do You Get Hate on Fics? Sometimes yeah, less since I archive locked. People yelling at me that I don't edit enough, one time I wrote a character wrong because I didn't give them enough boobs, one person really really hated it when I wrote that Jaskier was a virgin when he was 20, one person felt I was incredibly ableist on a story where a character was trying to come to terms with new disability.

Do You Write Smut? Why yes, yes I do. 194 of that 394 are rated M or E for the sex

Do You Write Crossovers - Nope!

Huh there was no question 11 in @sulkybender post so I'll make one up...Do you write archive warnings? Not a lot, never MCD, sometimes underage just because writing teen fictional characters

Have you ever had a fic translated? A lot, chinese, russian, few other languages I think? It is always a huge compliment to me, and as long as I am credited as the original author I am fine with translations.

Have you ever co-written a fic before? Yes with the incredible @thenerdyindividual we have written a couple fics together and they are great fics!

What's your all time favourite ship? Sorry I sail an armada no one fav

What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? I have a file named Old Man Hawke in my scriviner files that I love but don't think it will ever be finished. But never say never you know?

What are your writing strengths? Characterization, no matter the au the characters still feel like them

What are your writing weaknesses? Transitions between scenes, I run dialogue heavy

Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in a fic? Haven't felt the need for it, like previous said.

First Fandom you wrote for? Dragon Age

Favourite Fic you've written? Fuck you I have 394 fics, that is too cruel to answer.

I have never used Spotify

I was patiently waiting for someone to tag me in the Spotify game, just so I could tell all of y'all that I have NEVER used Spotify, so thanks @wen-kexing-apologist!

The tag game is supposed to be to put your On Repeat playlist on Spotify on shuffle and listen to the first 10 songs, so instead I'll offer you ten random ridiculous facts about me:

I have never used Spotify, and since I have a huge collection of vinyl records and CDs, I won't ever use it.

I am a horrible Catholic which means I sin a lot, but I excel at self-depreciation, so I enjoy it.

I have been a vegetarian for almost two decades solely because meat tastes disgusting to me, which means I hate the smell of bacon.

I don't like Reese's, so I was always popular at Halloween because I would give my entire bag away since the smell of Reese's would seep onto everything. I don't like coffee either, so I'm also popular at the end of the year because I give away my coffee shop gift cards that students have gifted me.

I have not watched a C-drama since the country's censorship, so every time someone makes a Word of Honor or The Untamed reference, I have no idea what's happening. None. I don't even know what the plot is for those shows.

I have never watched a Mame show, and I have only seen one Star Wars film. It was the one with Diego Luna. I understood nothing and was very upset when everyone died because I had no idea what the fuck the Death Star was.

My phone is a BlackBerry.

I have no piercings nor tattoos. Not even my ears are pierced.

If a show isn't queer or queer-coded, I ain't watching it. I maybe watch one "straight" show or movie a year. This year's was The Glory, and that show was perfect so no need to watch the straights do anything else in 2023.

The most ridiculous - I unknowingly took acid at a music festival (test your drugs, kids!), and a group of sunflowers were extremely suspicious to me during the trip because I felt they were judgingly staring at me, so JoongDunk's symbol being a sunflower greatly perturbs me.

20 questions for writers

Tagged by @riosnecktattoo, thank you!

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

93

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

1,007,385 which is an insane number

3. What fandoms do you write for?

A bunch! I've written for Good Girls, Succession, Stranger Things, Bridgerton and The Umbrella Academy most recently. I'll probably post little things from Shogun and Interview with the Vampire in the not too distant future though.

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Like an Unsung Chorus

An Antique Form

Show Me How to Fake It (Touch Me in the Dark)

Playing House

Cross Your Fingers

All Good Girls fic!

5. Do you respond to comments?

I try to, but I sometimes get a little overwhelmed by them and don't really know how to reply. People are very nice, haha.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

I don't really write angsty endings overall - I'm a happy endings sort of writer when it comes to fic - but some of my Succession fics have pretty loaded endings, so probably Stay Soft, Get Eaten or Unsprouted.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Probably I Could Be Your Welcome.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

No, I'm pretty lucky in that sense.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I do! And mm, I guess I'd say smut-with-baggage, haha.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

Nope, not really. I read them sometimes though.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

To echo Taylor, not that I know of.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Someone asked once, and I said yes, but I'm not sure if they ever did it.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I did waaaay back in my LJ days, but I haven't since I moved to ao3, no.

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

Honestly an impossible question!

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Mmm, probably the parents group AU for Good Girls. I love that fic, and still think about it sometimes, but it's feeling further and further away.

16. What are your writing strengths?

I think I'm pretty good with character and conveying their motivation, so even when readers don't like a choice, they hopefully understand why the character's made it. It comes from asking my own writing why? a lot, haha.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

I think I definitely and often have saggy middles. I like writing beginnings and endings, and can get lost in the weeds in between. I also have worked really hard recently at getting better at writing action and mixing up gestures and character movements. I find I can get repetitive and fall back on the same descriptions which is something I'm really trying to fix at the moment.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

If you don't speak the language yourself, you should at least try and get a beta reader who does to ensure it makes sense.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Oh, man, way back in the day, it was probably Digimon, hahaha.

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

Mmm, probably either my Succession fic Despicable Animals orrr my Good Girls fic, Drive You Mad (wear me out) I'm pretty attached to my Stranger Things fic, I Might Be Great Tomorrow (but hopeless yesterday) at the moment though too.

Elemental writers quiz!

I was tagged by @angelltheninth for this really cool Uquiz. I love anything that has to do with the elements so this one was really fun to do! Thanks for the tag!

Magma Writer

Molten rock that still has to surface. You're the perfect mix of fire and earth, and your story shows it, having the best of both worlds. You're the writer that holds fire on their fingertips and kisses their lovers goodbye in the most painful way. You're able to build long stories that burn on the inside. You break the human soul, touching with infinite grace the right cords. You are an artist of the elaborate pain and heavy angst only a constructed and long story can give. If i could see in your eyes, i would be looking at your soul dancing on an unstable floor, flames all around it, to protect it and to forge it. Your love burns hot and infinite inside of you, and sometimes, when it slips out, you're afraid that it could burn too much. But the right people will know how to love you, and every bright tongue of fire your soul is made of. Your stories are the ones that make the world change.
