#the craziest qpr you’ve ever seen

[iammissingautumn]

So no one wants to talk about Life Eater and how Johnny says “How can a god that loves you do this to you?” and Ralph laughs back “Loves me?” because Zimforth doesn’t love him. But in the end it’s gone too far. “You know who I want dead. You are mine alone, now and forever.” Zimforth tells Ralph, after he cries and begs saying he won’t kill Johnny. And you cry and Johnny knows the world will end. And he knows there’s reason to be upset with Ralph. But Johnny says he doesn’t hold it against him. That he regrets nothing. Ralph says “I love you, Johnny”. and Johnny says “Do it, Ralph”. But how could your god that loves you kill you?

[dreamperson-poll]

do you ever have really vivid dreams where your brain entirely fabricates people you’ve never seen or heard of before? boy, do i have the bracket for you

welcome to the dreamperson-poll, where you submit the craziest figures from your subconscious imagination to battle to the death! i’m mod rem, as in rem sleep, because i think i’m funny. this bracket is mainly self-indulgent, because i have dreams so vivid i could write a book. all submissions will be accepted unless they violate the rules!

speaking of, here are the rules:

no real people or fictional characters! these guys have gotta be entirely made up by your subconscious. this DOES exclude goncharov. sorry

ocs? sure! as long as they came to you in a dream first. oc information would be included in the 'elaboration' question

that's it, really. and, ofc, play nice. this is a silly little tumblr poll

here are some examples of dreamperson intros! they're mine. they will be included in the poll. all contestant intro posts will be tagged with #dreampeople and their title

Twenty Questions for Fic Writers

Thanks for the tag, @sneakyfox55 :D This should be fun!

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

It says 894 but I've anonymized some older/lower quality fics so those aren't accounted for in the public number. Including those, it's 1045!

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

At the moment it's 1,760,756!

3. What fandoms do you write for?

The big ones have been Tolkien, Transformers, JSE and Markiplier, Undertale and Marvel!

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Locks To Fit The Keys The Little Things Out of Suffering Come Strong Souls Tell Me Where It Hurts In All But Name

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Feedback is love, feedback is life! Comments fuel me to keep creating :D There are some I wasn't able to respond to at the time because I was too busy/tired/ill/etc. but I do my best to get to as many as I can!

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

Wrong Turn, Dying Light and Last Words come to mind because they all involve everyone dying horribly. Sorry...

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

Retrouvailles is just a ball of warm and fuzzy family feelings <3

8. Do you get hate on fics?

I have on a couple of occasions, usually because someone didn't like my characterization or I declined to write ships that made me uncomfortable.

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

I gave it a try back in the day before I figured out I was ace and sex-repulsed. Since then I've sworn off it :'D

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

I do! My Fran Bow + Undertale crossover is one of my favorites but the weirdest one was probably The Hobbit + Doctor Who XD

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I know of. I have seen another writer use my OCs without crediting me but when I brought it up, they were apologetic so it was resolved cordially.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

I have, I just can't remember which one it was at the moment asfjks

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

Yes, I have, with a couple of different roleplay partners. It's been a while though; I've found I prefer art collabs over writing collabs.

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

I don't know if I have an all-time favorite; I usually prefer platonic, QPRs and familial dynamics. Grillby/Muffet and Eowyn/Faramir come to mind, though; they're adorable!

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

Just yesterday I was feeling guilty for the umpteenth time over leaving the tenth (and arguably most important) part of The Pacemakers series unfinished. I posted what I had of it so my readers could know how it would have gone but still...

16. What are your writing strengths?

I like to think I'm pretty good at detailing high-intensity emotions and the effects they have on the characters so the readers can feel them too.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Actually finishing longer fics :'D I have a terrible track record of cliffhanger WIPs and trust me, it frustrates me just as much as it does my readers. I'm not sure how to remedy it, unfortunately.

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

I've done it here and there with Dr. Schneeplestein's German and it's a lot of fun! Since I'm not fluent I have to be sparing with it, though; it'd suck to overestimate what I know and end up mistranslating something.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

I think I wrote something for the 90s TMNT movies? That was before I knew it was even called fanfiction or that there were websites for posting them XD

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

That's such a hard question! I don't know if I could ever pick a #1 without second-guessing it later but In All But Name is pretty far up there <3

No pressure tag for @jacky-rubou! Have fun!
