hi!!! first I wanna say I found you through X / twitter because of your tiva fics and girl... I'm sure you're a ncis writer in disguise. they're so good. I devoured your whole catalogue in like... a week. second, I'm a fic writer myself. and I was wondering if you have any tips for newbies like me to get the voices of these 20+ years characters right. anyway... huge fan!!! 💓
omg anon, that is so sweet :') 💗 thank you so much!
this ask has been sitting in my inbox for the last couple of days because I couldn't deal with answering this properly (like who am I in the great scope of things???) but one thing I know for certain is that I love these characters dearly and that is more than half of it
I think fanfiction, similar to any other type of art, gets better the more the practice, so maybe just read and then write write write? Awful advice (I know) but it was my delusion that stuck me in writing these characters (for 5 years now wtf) and now I'm very aware my newest works are easier to read than my older stuff haha
More specific advice: Tony is always joking. Ziva is always observing. McGee is always trying to do things the correct way. Gibbs doesn't talk, always ordering. Ducky is very endearing. Palmer is bad at jokes. Abby (idk I haven't written her in a while) is constantly excited.
all my insight about these characters in a couple of phrases (omg I'm the worst at this) but I do hope we can read future stories from you (if there's any already please send them to me!!!) and I could you help somehow :) thank you so much!!!

Micheal Sheen being an actual angel, we’ve come full circle
I learned today that michael sheen is a not for profit actor and donates all his earnings to charity and that when the homeless world cup lost its funding he sold two houses to save it. He’s literally kissing david tennant for charity. The dream

ten years ago you were so scared of such different things, but you survived them anyway. the same goes for five years ago and two years ago. everything that has ever felt like a hurdle, you’ve passed through. so be afraid, identify your fears, and then allow yourself to remember that in just a little while, this will be another thing that you have overcome.

yknow AI art has ruined an entire genre of painting to me, i saw one of those smooth anime-realism pieces and immidiately thought ''ugh, AI art'' until i noticed it was posted by an established deviantart user 6 years ago. like ive never been a huge fan of that genre but it looks like a pretty difficult style to master and i feel bad for the artists who specialized in anime-realism only to have their entire market jacked by people typing keywords into midjourney.

Chilchuck is definitely the kind of dad that scared his kids with the boogie man, he has that kind of humor
and probably ended up having them sleep on his bed bc he scared them too much too

emily gwen, the creator of the sunset lesbian flag that we’ve come to commonly use, still continues to live in poverty.
Tumblr media
multi-billion dollar companies have used their design and made profit from it, and yet they have not seen a cent for their creation.
i’ve been friends with emily for years, and i have not once seen them be financially stable the entire time. i’ve seen them homeless, unemployed, starving. right now, they need our help more than ever.
please consider donating to emily’s ko-fi, especially if you’ve used their design to create something and profited from it.

My sort of maybe embarrassing “late to the game” thing I’m learning now is how to tell if oil has gone bad.
I feel like most other foods have obvious visual tells like mold or they end up smelling foul and obviously bad. But I was googling about oil and the internet says “if it smells like crayons, it’s bad” which would not have been my first guess. And I tested it out on my somewhat old sesame oil and was like “by god, I would describe this as smelling like crayons”
Anyway protip if your old oil smells kinda like crayons it’s probably no good 🖍️
