20 Questions for Fic Writers Game

Tagged by a darling, @autisticempathydaemon! Thanks for the tag!

Tagging @agentplutonium because I wanna pull some SH style interrogative shenanigans/lh

1 - How many works do you have on AO3?

Seventeen, not a lot but it's to be expected somewhat I suppose since I'm busy writing NeXus.

2 - What's your total AO3 word count?

64,509-Oh look I beat Lexi/j/pos

3 - What fandoms do you write for?

Redacted mostly, I have some unreleased Castle Audios fics, an unfinished JJBA SDC fic to finish and a Scott Pilgrim fic to start.

4 - What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

#1 is an Ironpanther Marvel Fic of Avenger's Academy I have not touched in forever called "How Tony Stark landed a king and how T'Challa landed a genius". It was fun tho cuz my hc of T'Challa being demisexual was really well received to my knowledge. #2 is "Spitfire", which admittedly is a good FL/Damien fic and people should read it. #3 is "Ghost of the Past", my Sam/SH fic where they both used to be roommates in DUMP. #4 is "Friends...Am I right?" which was a really fun Darlin/Sam & BE+Fred fic. Finally, #5 is "Moments That Flash By" which is a really good Darlin/David fic for my soul.

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

I do respond when I remember...ADHD makes me do silly silly things like forget that stuff exists. I like comments and they let me know I'm doing s good job.

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

Easy! "Shattered Glass Makes a Good Weapon" Gods, I love that fic so much. It was really fun for me to reach deep down and write Darlin and Quinn like that.

7 -What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

uhhhhhhh I dunno, probably a Marvel fic called "Crossing Buckies and Dotting Hawkeyes", I am a winterhawk girlie and I had fun writing that, others might think it's "Spitfire" or "Break time, Gorgeous" but subjectively, it's that fic.

8 - Do you get hate on fics?

If I have then I haven't seen it. I don't really engage much with fandom to care about hate comments because "haha, look at you getting mad over words about fictional characters kissing", like shut your goofy ass and move on.

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

I have but I'm not releasing it. I don't feel compelled to do it-mostly cuz it's for me and I like toying with the idea in my head and the people of my current fandom are not ready for the depravity I could unleash.

10 - Do you write crossovers?

No? I have ideated one but I'm still not sure if I want to do it.

11 - Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Nope.

12 - Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nuh uh.

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

Uhhhh no but I have ideated with Lexi about one and I have been too busy to finish the first chapter.

14 - What's your all time favorite ship?

My redactedsona/redacted men What? who said that? It's Darlin/Sam/David/Angel/Damien/Asher/Baaabe/SH/Milo. It's my ship and yes, they're all poly, yes, they're a network and yes, I am happy with myself.

15 - What's a WIP that you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

"Platinum Portrait", It was an old JJBA fic with my OC/Jotaro and I really liked how it was going. Dunno, we'll see how it goes.

16 - What are your writing strengths?

I'm good at dialogue and characterization as well as pacing(?).

17 - What are your writing weaknesses?

Gore, writing long fics, Dead Dove Do Not Eats (I wanna do those at some point with Quinn or Hush OR Porter OR OR OR Imperium Vincent) I like dark shit, idk what to tell y'all and I wanna get better at exploring darker topics properly in my writing.

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

Gods, I love doing it. If you've read "Break Time, Gorgeous" then I want you to know, I love you and it was fun as hell to write.

19 - First fandom you wrote for?

Marvel. Specifically it was my Ironpanther fic.

20 - Favorite fic you've written?

An unreleased Sam/Darlin smut fic where they fuck in an alleyway. I think it's fun.

5. do you respond to comments

i used to be good at it. then i got stressed bc of school. and then i was suddenly like "uhhhh idk How to respond???" i think the thing that got me was i didn't know how to reply to the distressed comments on my sokka falling fic so i just. accidentally stopped.

this was hard, but imma go with i was a child and she was a child bc it's based on one of my favorite childhood memories! rip to zuko and his ice cream tho :/ but azula is VIBING the whole time oiuygfcgyhuij

8. do you get hate on fics?

not really? i did once have someone try to correct me and say that i wrote sokka with ocd instead of tourette's but it was in the bookmarks and it made me laugh lol. i also got this comment on my kubokai kaidou with ts fic: ".. the self projection is heavy in this one ... -_-" so idk if that counts lol

9. do you write smut? if so, what kind?

nope :)

not that i know of?

12. what's the longest you've spent working on a fic? and the shortest?

uhhh i wrote a 7,600 word fic in three hours while i had covid? that's prolly the shortest? i count that as shorter than anything i may have finished faster bc i had covid lol but longest? ummmm over a year? multiple years? idkkkkkk the jay with ts fic i posted was something i wrote in 2019 and i edited it (a lot) and posted it in 2022 so??? that maybe?

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

uhhh i did with friends in middle/high school, but those never left the docs! also grace and i have. very many much so aus lol

14. what's your all-time favorite ship? from all fandoms?

RARIJACK!!! it was one of my first hardcore ships, and also was my introduction to queer ships!!! renga is a close second, but rarijack just is really important and special to me for sentimental reasons that put it above renga and others! i am also on a seroroki kick right now. it's not my all-time favorite, but the brain rot seems never ending right now lol

15. what's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

GOD SO MANY i have a folder in gdocs just for ninjago fics and there are folders within the folder for different types of wips i'll never finish - i have That many: "no substance", "baby girls", "drafts"... etc...

16. what are your writing strengths?

uhhhhhhhhhh ngl i'm in a place right now where i feel like the answer is Nothing (writer's block has been Bad recently), but i think something i'm good at in a very specific way is making readers feel the discomfort of characters? like idk i've been told that the way i write ts and tics (specifically tic attacks) makes the readers feel uncomfortable in like a "wow i didn't know it felt this way" kind of way??? i like to think i'm good at characterization??? idkkkk

17. what are your writing weaknesses?

ummm setting and scenery & connecting parts of a story, especially if they're parts that i'm stuck on/transitions are prolly my biggest ones???

18. thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

i mean go for it as long as it's respectful and like... you tried making sure it's accurate?

19. first fandom you wrote for?

uhh rainbow fairy/a-z mysteries... but that was like very briefly on paper. first time like... for Realsies was ninjago

20. favorite fic you've written?

oh 100% hey, little songbird, give me a song. it's just really special to me and writing it helped me cope with a new tic i had. but one that i wrote more recently is fantasies i'm not sure that i'm worthy of which is a ritsu-centric fic and is prolly tied as my favorite fic i wrote in 2023. the other one would be sun comes streaming through the window (& i can't sleep anymore) which is my 21k word kenji-centric fic lol but that one is like... i'm more proud of it than anything, which is what puts it up there.

Twenty Questions for Fic Writers

Tagged by @extraordinarilyextreme, 谢谢

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

On my current account, 25! (not counting everything from my old account I deleted in 2020)

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

On said current account, 53,972

What fandoms do you write for?

As of right now the brainrot has taken me to MLC, and if I ever get my motivation back, then also DMBJ

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

1. The War Is Over, And We Are Beginning - Jiang Cheng & Jin Ling, 7.6k, Post-Canon

2. all of this mess (is just my attempt) - Chengning, 2.6k, Cloud Recesses

3. hold the world to its best - Jiang Cheng, 859, Long After Canon

4. won't run away (we're here to stay) - Chengning, 3.5k, Post-Canon

5. welcome to the storm - Jiang Cheng, 1.6k, Fall of Lotus Pier

Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I try to, but god help the ADHD. I read and cherish every one I get though, I promise!!

What is a fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

It's either didn't want us to burn out, which was canon timeline Chengxuan, or come back and haunt me, which was canon timeline Sangyu. I think I'll go with the latter. It had more tragedy about identity and memory, I think

(There's also one Hamlet fic I'm proud of, but that was a one-off I wrote. You can go find it if you want)

What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Oh boy, uhhhhhhh. Out of the stuff currently associated with me, it'll be one of the Chengning fics, I think, or my aro!Wei Wuxian Ningxian fic. Not gonna lie it's slim pickings for happy endings around here haha

Do you get hate on fics?

No, thank god. I was always too much of a small fic writer for that.

Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Hahaha, not really. I'll do handwavey and fade to black but that's about it. Might get there one day though!

Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

Nope, not a crossover person unfortunately unless you want to count the sins on my old laptop from my superwholock era (I don't)

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Ehhhhh..... as of recently, ideas yes but actual written fics, not that I'm aware of

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes! A couple of my MDZS fics and one MCU fic back in the day got translated into Russian

What's your all-time favorite ship?

Bestie I live in multishipper hell you can't make me decide

What's a wip you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

Basically every DMBJ wip at this point in time, but particularly the one I'm furthest along on that I do not have a working title for other than 'horrible huaxie backstory'. My relationship with DMBJ has changed a LOT since getting into it this year and now my hyperfixation is somewhere else, so who knows what'll happen *shrugs*

What are your writing strengths?

I've been told my narration has a distinctive voice to it, and I think that's what people tend to compliment most? Dialogue is also something I've tried to consciously work on over the years, and I don't know that it stands out as a strength necessarily but it's almost something I find easy to write these days if I'm in the swing of it

What are your writing weaknesses?

Action and smut. Basically don't make me mentally choreograph complex stuff

Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

Now that my Mandarin has improved after two years of study, I think writing bilingual fic could be fun. There's definitely dialogue I've thought up in Mandarin for C-Drama characters that just won't have the same impact in English, and it's a shame I can't just casually drop it into a fic untranslated and be done with it

First fandom you wrote for?

First fics I ever wrote were for Star Wars and they were written longhand into a horrid little hipster notebook from Indigo. The first fics I posted on Ao3 were for the MCU though

Favorite fic you've written?

Nah I'm not choosing on this, I have no idea <3

9 People You Would Like to Get to Know Better.

Thanks for the tag, @shootingstarpilot!! :))

Three ships: Hmmm. Codywan is obviously a big one for me haha, I'd say they're probably my main ship. The Star Wars brainrot is severe right now, but I'll also say Aziraphale/Crowley from Good Omens (hey, samesies, @shootingstarpilot :D haha) and Spirk (though I am becoming fond of McKirk in AOS specifically as well, after having dabbled in writing that dynamic myself).

First ever ship: Uhhhhhhh fuck. Um. I think??? It would be Magnus/Alec from the Shadowhunter books??? I think the first one I ever actually wrote for, myself, may have been Codywan though, since most of what I made when I first started out was OC and then reader fic. I had a lot of anxiety about trying to manage characterization back then and having one of the protags be a non-canon character felt like less pressure, I guess.

Last song: Holy by King Princess, I think. There's not enough unabashedly horny sapphic music that's by and for sapphic people.

Last movie: My short-term memory is garbage lol, but the last movie I remember watching right now is Hocus Pocus.

Currently reading: I haven't really had the spoons for anything published lately, but I'm currently rereading @fox-trot 's And I Fear Nothing again bc I saw some art they posted from it and it just gives me so many feelings.

Currently consuming: Sprite, and I had a croissant breakfast sandwich a few hours ago. Mourning that I don't think we ever actually took the dumdums we bought the other night out of my roommate's car.

Currently craving: A fucking nap, honestly. Maybe a day without a single item on my to-do list.

20 Questions for Fic Writers

finally getting around to this, thank you @astromechs for the tag!!

::

1. How many works do you have on ao3?

29

2. What’s your total ao3 word count?

327,391

3. What fandoms do you write for?

mainly star wars and marvel! though i don't write marvel as much anymore (the mcu really burned me too many times lol and just took away a lot of my inspiration/motivation to write for it). so mostly star wars nowadays, but occasionally i will sprinkle in a fic for a different fandom!

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

a. we find ourselves when we lose everything else - 519 kudos

b. our time in the dark - 518 kudos

c. risk everything we have (and just let our walls cave in) - 426 kudos

d. if loves elastic (then were we born to test it’s reach) - 391 kudos

e. revelations (come to us in recovery) - 388 kudos

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

no 🙈. weirdly enough, i was a lot better about responding years ago on my ff. net account. but i don't really do it on ao3, honestly because i'm just a little lazy about it lol. but i promise i read every single one and know that if you've ever left a comment, i appreciate it so so much!!

6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

probably broken things. it's a romanogers soulmate last words au which ended in a major character death. but you know. last words au, death. it made sense haha.

i've also written a couple canon-compliant character study type fics, including one for natasha romanoff, one for cassian andor/rogue one crew, some for leia organa (post-tfa), and well, none of those end very happily sooooo.

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

uhhhhhhh why was this so hard asdffglkhglj. i write a lot of agnst and hurt/comfort lol. but my fic, the weight of your love, is just pure kanera fluff. and these two kanera fics that i've posted on tumblr (but not on ao3 yet), are just silly and fun and fluffy.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

not really, thankfully. i mean, i've gotten some not-so-nice comments in the past (again, mainly on ff.net) but i've never gotten anything super aggressive or confrontational, so i'm grateful to be in nice corners of fandom!

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

occasionally yes. typically i insert my smut scenes into longer fics though. (i do have a bunch of unpublished half-written smut fics that i haven't gotten the courage to finish and post yet, bc i'm not always the most confident in my smut writing but maybe one day!)

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

not really. i'm not even the best at coming up with AUs, much less crossovers lol. i think the closest i've gotten to a crossover is an agents of shield/mcu crossover, which shouldn't even BE a crossover, but considering that the mcu never acknowledged AoS, it kinda feels like it is. anyway, wrote a fic where daisy johnson and bucky barnes are bffs, and i'm quite fond of it!

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

yeah :/ i had somebody take one of my fics and (related to next question) translate it and put it on wattpad. i couldn't message the author and my attempts to contact wattpad got me nowhere so i kinda just let it go.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

looking at last question, technically yes. but other than that, not yet! i would be very honored if someone wanted to translate one of my fics though, and would have absolutely no problem with it! (so long as they asked and didn't steal it asdkfsjd)

13. Have you ever cowritten a fic before?

only bits and pieces of shared aus with friends for fun, but haven’t published anything.

14. What’s your all-time favorite ship?

kanera and romanogers, hands down. kanan and hera are more recent, but i fell in love with both their characters and them as a couple so fast, and i absolutely love writing for them. they're going to stick with me forever. and steve and natasha.... my loves. fell in love with them when i saw catws the first time and haven't looked back. they've stuck with me the longest, i think. and even though i don't write marvel as much anymore, i still think about them a lot, and there's a lot of stevenat wips i have that i still hope to finish one day.

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

whew ummmmm. there's a couple of romanogers fics (specifically finishing our time in the dark and the follow-up to revelations which is an endgame fix-it) that i have told myself i will finish. and i want to! but it will really take a major push to get me back into the headspace to write for marvel again. genuinely, endgame drained so much of the love and inspiration i had so 😔 i hope i can prove myself wrong one day!

i also have ambitions to do a star wars sequels rewrite, but it feels so big lol, so idk if i'll ever actually get around to finishing it. but the bits i have written for it i have so much love for.

16. What are your writing strengths?

digging deep into character emotions and their headspaces. that's something i really like exploring. also i think i'm pretty good about including small details, particularly with using the different senses and using those to help set the scene, and whatnot. in short, description and emotion are my strong suits!

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

humor. i think i can be funny sometimes in my writing, but i definitely don't think i'm as good at humor as other people. and especially funny dialogue and banter, that's something i feel like i have to think about more. so still working on that!

i also don't know if this is a true weakness, but i literally don't know when to stop writing asdfljgldkj. i feel like lately it's so hard for me to write short fics (unless i do it in a mad burst in one sitting). but if i'm thinking a lot about a fic, chances are it's going to be 5k MINIMUM.

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

i'm not real comfortable with it, especially if i don't speak the language. if it's a very short phrase or a singular word, i will try to use a translator and other online investigating (and then nicely ask people to correct me in the comments if i'm wrong lol). but if i want to have the character speaking full sentences i will usually type it out in english and then use "they said in [insert language here]" as the tagline.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

if we're going wayyy back, technically the first fic i wrote was a bones fic when i was in middleschool lmao. i wrote it in a notebook, never published it online. but i first posted fics online in high school (as a freshman i think), and i think the first fics i published were for percy jackson and supernatural lol.

20. Favorite fic you’ve ever written?

probably revelations. looking at it now, there are certainly things i would change about this one, but i wrote it on and off for 3 years, so i was just really proud when i finally finished it. and there are still a lot of character moments i wrote into this one that i still love.

also you are my solid ground. plot does not really exist in this fic, but i had the best time writing the steve/nat/sam dynamic. literally dream trio.

(real talk, some of my fave fics are ones that i haven't finished yet/haven't published yet. i think my newest favorite fic is the kanan character study one i'm working on now. i still have a little bit to go, but i'm really close to finishing it, and i'm just so proud of it. there's so much about it that i love and i can't wait to share it (hopefully by the end of the year!)).

15 Questions / 15 Mutuals 

Got tagged by @eldritch-ace - hello there!! Thank you for the tag :D

1) Are you named after anyone? Hm I mean, technically ‘Taka’ is a nickname that the fabulous @archervale gave me, and it’s a reference to Hawkeye from the Avengers. So....yes? Irl name wise, I believe my name is both biblical and runs in my family, which is why my parents picked it. 

2) When was the last time you cried? Honestly not completely sure lol. Hmm I definitely cried watching the end of episode 8 of The Last of Us, so maybe then? That feels like it was a while ago though, so maybe some other time in between then. I don’t remember though rip

3) Do you have kids? Biological kids? No. Original characters? Yes. They are my kids

4) Do you use sarcasm a lot? I try to, and sometimes I nail it, sometimes I don’t hahah

5) What sports do you play/have played? I mean, I don’t intentionally do any sports, other than what I was made to do at school, but I do run around frequently out of choice, mostly during my job haha. And I used to do cycling. I also do a reasonable amount of walking, actually! 

6) What's the first thing you notice about other people? Whether or not they’re wearing Doctor Who merch

7) What's your eye color? Brown

8) Scary movies or happy endings? Angst. (But real talk - happy endings. I can’t do scary movies hahah and I generally do love my angst with a happy ending, or at least a hopeful/cathartic one)

9) Any special talents? I’m unbelievably good at being unable to shut up about whatever I’m obsessed with at that current moment. I also do this ‘teleporting’ thing where I move quickly or people don’t notice me take a more efficient route (usually, this happens at work) and I seem to suddenly ‘appear’ in places. I often use this for evil to unnerve visitors on tours by going from the back to the front without anyone seeing me move, and it brings me great joy

10) Where were you born? In a hospital. Fun fact, when I was born, the nurses didn’t write down the time of birth, and my mum was just like ‘at some point in the morning’ so like. I don’t actually know what time I was born haha. I guess you could say I’m....I’m a....timeless ch- *gets shot*

11) What are your hobbies? I draw, I write, I play percussion in an orchestra (currently learning glock and xylo which are haaaard), I sing in my church choir and I also like writing music! I mainly do electronic music, using samples I’ve recorded irl (like a squeaking gate) and turning them into synthesisers! I’ve actually got a whole album/EP’s worth of music and I want to put it up somewhere on the internet soon

12) Do you have any pets? Do the grasshoppers in my garden count

13) How tall are you? Uhhhhhhh 5′7″ i believe but i don’t remember

14) Favourite subject in school? English

15) Dream job? Would love to be a tv script writer and/or documentary presenter tbh. Like, getting to write cool stories and someone else makes them for me? And then get to talk excitedly about cool stuff?? Sign me up

last Actual Full Song i listened to i think is "She Wants Me (To Be Loved)" by The Happy Fits though 👍

CURRENTLY WATCHING

does A Crown Of Candy the dropout dnd series count as watching if you can kinda look away from the screen and not miss Too Much? if not then the Trigun 98 series

CURRENTLY READING

Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, yes specifically the translated web novel because i Cannot Do Gore <3

physical book-wise, This Is How You Lose The Time War by Max Gladstone, yes i found it from the bigolas dickolas trigun tweet thing What Of It <3

CURRENT OBSESSION

i cannot lie about this folks i could say any number of fandoms but the thing that is taking a majority of my brainpower at the moment is a Danganronpa RP im in <- has never played danganronpa <- has never rp'd either <- making an extensive google drive folder with collected art and every message weve sent with added links across locations as characters travel between sections of the story <- mentally unwell in both life and character

[orcelito]

Reason Twitter is bad (among many): I can't fucking check tags on posts for reassurance that a fanart is what I think it is, so if there aren't helpful hashtags labeling the art then I'm on my fuckin own

[gwen-cheers-me-up]

Thanks for the tag @zoingfandom!

How many works do you have on AO3?

41

What’s your total AO3 word count?

373,332

How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?

Merlin (TV) (25)

Harry Potter (15)

Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them (1) (and the one fic has been abandoned haha...)

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

I’m gonna do top 5 Merlin fics since this is my Merlin blog

Merlin's Favourite (Gen)

Life After Arthur (Merlin/Gwaine)

Can't Watch You Die (Merlin & Morgana)

I Also Have Magic (Merlin/Lancelot, Merlin & The Knights)

In Good Hands (Merlin & Lancelot)

What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

I’m more of a “hopeful ending” person, but for Mini Mercelot Week “angst” day, I wrote The Body Sleeping Next To Me featuring Shade Lancelot/Merlin

Do you write crossovers?

Nope--not yet at least. I would love to do a Merlin/Last Unicorn crossover fic at some point, but I haven’t planned it out or anything

Do you write smut? if so what kind?

I don’t post smut because I showed a fic to my manager once when I was seventeen and I still work there 🙈 but I do write it sometimes. I prefer to read it though

What’s your all time favorite ship?

When I asked this question aloud, my qpp said “me/making decisions. it’s a crack ship, but...” (love you 💚 @kitkatsnow)

What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

Okay so I started a fic that’s kind of...horror-esque? with a curse and some Merlin & Mordred bonding moments, and I would LOVE to see it completed, but...uhhhhhhh...uhhhmmmmm...ahhhhhhhh

What are your writing strengths? What are your writing weaknesses?

Strengths: I’d like to think it’s dialogue, humor, and character interactions?

Weaknesses: setting, setting, SETTING, like goddamn they could all be in a shoe box, idk and u certainly dk

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

It’s never come up in a fic so far, so I don’t think I have any thoughts? Except that any time Merlin calls Kilgharrah I just copy and paste from episode transcripts on the wiki and hope they’re relevant commands

What was the first fandom you wrote for?

Harry Potter

What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

Ooh, probably Merlin's Favourite, because it’s something I would read if I were browsing AO3--and also chaos-enabling Lancelot is everything
