LAST SONG? a 10-year-old acoustic cover of “Scream and Shout” by will.i.am and Britney

FAVORITE COLOR? Blue!!!!! Navy blue, royal blue, blue gray, cobalt, ultramarine!

CURRENTLY WATCHING? Haven’t had the brains for consuming new media in months.

LAST MOVIE? See above.

SWEET/SPICY/SAVORY? Savory! I am (shamefully for a Desi) cursed with low spice tolerance and can’t handle anything more than a little sweet.

RELATIONSHIP STATUS? Single.

CURRENT OBSESSIONS? Wolf 359, jigsaw puzzles, relearning piano after 10 years, interior decor

LAST THING YOU GOOGLED? how to hard boil eggs

thanks to @mottles for tagging me!!! 🌸 i had to do both because the cat picrew was just too cute to pass up on so here's my distinguished gentleman:

and as for the questions!

last song listened to: good luck, babe! — chappell roan

favorite color(s): pink!!!! any shade of pink but it has to be pink

currently watching: 9-1-1, mary & george, class acts, helluva boss, severance, fire country, 23.5 degrees, pit babe, shadow and bone, the boys, one piece (anime)

current obsession: dead boy detectives and fallout are battling for dominance in my brain at any given time. thankfully fallout has plenty of content what with the games AND the new season already being confirmed, but if you have netflix and are reading this please consider giving dead boy detectives a try i need it to be renewed or i'll expire

last thing googled: apparently it was “black dahlias” because i did a uquiz that asked me to pick flowers and i am unbelievably ignorant on the matter

i'm tagging @sherrymagic @moonkhao @rotblut @briscoelily @meyerlansky @kameonerd566 @lesbianphoebespengler and whoever sees this and wants to do it! you can do either of these or both or neither ofc (:

Thanks for the tag @enigma-the-mysterious !

I have a fanfiction.net account that I have long stopped using, not least because I started disliking the site, as well as the character whose name I had used as my username on that site.

I had a Wattpad phase when I was 15. I haven’t opened that in years.

Definitely have an Ao3 account! AmbidextrousAecher

I do not like either reading or writing smut, maybe it’s part of my manifestation of aroace news.

I used to roleplay with someone who had been a friend of mine, online here on Tumblr.

I have beta read fics and fic related scenes for both former and current friends.

I have definitely published an unbeta’ed fic! Most of my early works in the Mahabharata fandom were unbetaed, as well as most of my fics for all other fandoms I have written in.

I have definitely written self-indulgent fics. A King’s Fortune is one I can think of immediately, though that one is angst central right now, as well as Let Not Sleeping Skunks Lie, which is the height of self-indulgence.

I usually write grammatically correct sentences, even in comments, something I have been teased for. No keysmashes, sorry.

Yes, I have left kudos on many fics twice, at least in the form of comments. @starlightasteria and her amazing fics are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

I do love me some good fluff sometimes!

No, I have not written for same sex ships. I don’t ship in general, with some very rare exceptions, all of which are somehow cishet ships.

Fan fiction is definitely a genre of its own!

Definitely multifandom. Mahabharata, ASOIAF, Jodhaa Akbar, Baahubali, Harry Potter, Hunger Games, have fics I have written fro them that are published, including two crossovers. I am writing a fic for the Thor (Marvel) movie, as well as have ideas for fics on the Ponniyin Selvan fandom, which I intend to execute. Oh! And I also have a fic for the TV serial Kuch Rang Pyaar Ke Aise Bhi, though most of that fandom would flame that fic, because it is very biased to the male lead, being in his PoV with a lot of canon divergences.

I enjoy research before writing! Have spent many happy hours in that.

If a mental outline counts, I keep an outline of sorts, yes.

Who doesn’t wait for feedback after publishing?

Haven’t received or commissioned art.

Have about 8-10 unpublished fics, mostly having Jaime Lannister in multiple universes.

I actually…like editing?

Oh, most of my ideas strike right before bed, in the middle of the night, or when I startle awake after a nightmare.

I don’t drink alcohol, tea or coffee, so those two are out.

Yes, I think I have a fic that deserves more attention. Darin is one of my favourite pieces that I have written, and hardly anyone reads it. (Understandable, it’s a Mahabharata crossover with the Hunger Games)

Yes, I hope to publish my novel series which is solely from Arjun’s PoV.

Sorry for not reblogging, I wasn’t able to, app glitch. Credit for the bingo to the original poster.

fic writer self-rec

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favourite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers.

Tagged by @oldshrewsburyian!

Hands, Tudors. A Mary I drabble collection centered around descriptions of her hands over the years. I spent six weeks straight during the summer before I began college perfecting this fic, and it's still some of my favorite prose that I've ever written.

Liminal, Tudors. A fic based on someone else's Tudors AU where Arthur Tudor faked his own death and came back at the Blackfriars Trial. I wrote this to explore Mary Tudor's POV and it's one of my favorites since it's one of the longest fics I've completed to date.

If You Love This Coast, Tudors. A fic based on @mihrsuri's OT3 verse where Mary discovers that Thomas Cromwell is in a secret relationship with Henry and Anne Boleyn and the biological father of her newest half-sibling. My favorite since it was the first fic I wrote for this verse and the only multichap fic I've completed other than Liminal.

sandezahara, Ramayana. This was a Sulochana & Sita fic I wrote for Yuletide 2019 which I'm still proud of, because I had not expected this fandom to be selected in the exchange and for it to be well-received.

bhojana, Jodhaa Akbar. Another Yuletide fic for a small Desi fandom that was well-received (although when I was linking this fic, turns out the recipient deleted their account sometime back). Jalal, Jodhaa, Maham Anga, and Adham get together for a family dinner and it goes as well as you'd expect.

Tagging anyone else who wants to do this!

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

[flame-shadow]

hey did you know??? that if you stop stretching and maintaining mobility in your body then it goes away?? things get tight and you can't move the way that you used to??? and when you decide to try getting a stretch routine going that the first week fucking sucks because you keep going 'damn i used to be able to do this no problem' and then you have to switch gears and be kind to yourself and just focus on getting better from here instead of berating yourself for dropping the good habits in the first place??? and your body never stops aging so you gotta keep taking care of it and sometimes you gotta take care of it extra in certain areas because of things that happened when you were younger and it's boring and sometimes hurts but it's so necessary???

i am yelling this at myself right now i am going through An Experience (trying to get into a routine of body maintenance again for my physical and mental health)
