heyy i've literally been on your blog for like 4 seconds BUT i saw some ships that i love, so - do you want to do a list of your OTPs from every fandom? partly because it could be fun for you, partly because i need more serotonin which i only get from finding new ships haha

omg absolutely! First of all, thank you for asking 💕

I just started writing and this ended up being super long *hides in shame* I hope you enjoy it ✨

I love so many shows and ships, so I'll list them all below but if you ask what my absolute favorites are, I'll just add "!!!" to the fronts of the specific ships that make my brain melt, bc of how fucking much I love them.

The number of ! indicates the amount of brain damage that ship has given me, which is directly proportional to how many hours I could go on and on about them as characters and them as a couple and how perfect they are for each other.

Alright let's do this.

I'll start with the classics, and then move on to lesser known ones:

!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Queer as Folk US - Britin (Brian x Justin)

!!!!!!! Harry Potter - Wolfstar (Sirius x Remus)

! Harry Potter (ot3) - Wolfstarbucks (Sirius x Remus x James)

Harry Potter - Jily (James x Lily)

Harry Potter - Drarry (Draco x Harry)

Harry Potter - Scorbus (Scorpius x Albus Severus)

look- I know jkr is problematic, which is why I don't give her money anymore. But fanfic is free and I grew up with these characters, I will not let go of them. I have SO MANY thoughts about wolfstar and the Marauders jfc I could go on for hours.

!!! BBC Sherlock - Johnlock (John x Sherlock)

And any adaptation of Sherlock Holmes tbh, the Guy Ritchie movies are also *chef's kiss*

!!!!!!!! Supernatural - Destiel (Dean x Castiel)

fair warning here: Destiel is my otp and I believe in endgame Destiel but as I've said before, Dean is my emotional support character, which means I ship him with basically anyone who is strong enough to lift him up against a wall 🤗 which includes but not limited to:

Supernatural - Denny (Dean x Benny)

Supernatural - Drowley (Dean x Crowley)

Supernatural - Dean x Lee

Supernatural - Dean x Lissa

Also, if you've never watched spn... Idk what to tell you, you're in for a wild ride. Because that show is BRILLIANT but ALSO and (I cannot express this enough) at the same time it is a trashcan on fire. If you've watched it, you know exactly what I mean.

Alright, let's move on:

!!!!! Shameless US - Gallavich (Ian x Mickey)

!!! Teen Wolf - Sterek (Stiles x Derek)

Teen Wolf - Scallison (Scott x Allison)

Teen Wolf - Allydia (Allison x Lydia)

Brooklyn 99 - Peraltiago (Amy x Jake)

Brooklyn 99 - Holt x Kevin

Brooklyn 99 - Rosa x Pimento

Welcome to Night Vale - Cecilos (Cecil x Carlos

Welcome to Night Vale - Michelle x Maureen

WTNV is a podcast, not visual media but if you haven't listened to it, do yourself a favor and do it now!!

Sense8 (ot3) - Hernando x Lito x Danny

Sense8 - Raj x Kala

Sense8 - Amanita x Nomi

Sense8 (ot3) - Raj x Kala x Wolfgang

Glee - Seblaine (Blaine x Sebastian)

Glee - Huntbastian (Hunter x Sebastian)

Glee - Brittana (Brittany x Santana)

Supergirl - Supercorp (Lena x Kara)

Supergirl - Karolsen (Kara x Jimmy)

The Flash - Thallen (Barry x Eddie)

The Flash - Westallen (Barry x Iris)

The Flash (ot3) - Westhallen (Eddie x Barry x Iris)

The Flash - Harmon (Cisco x Hartley)

Davinci's Demons - Leonardo x Lorenzo

... Aaaand, I think that's all I can remember for the fictional ones 🤔 some of these shows I haven't watched in yeeeears, but I thought I'd add them bc why not.

Now. That being said...

These next ones might be problematic. But I *do* actually ship some rpf... I KNOW SHAME ON ME.

Now, I want to make it very clear that I only engage in fan discussions, I read fanfic, and then I move on with my life. I DO NOT bring this up to the people involved, nor their families nor their friends nor their partners. And I hate when people do that. I know these are real people and not fictional characters so I don't harass them about this, nor do it bring it up to them in social media or their concerts or in any possible way.

I just enjoy my anonymous tinhatting with strangers online, and then I get off the internet, and go to work, and see my friends, and I move on with my life. I simply like the idea of these ships. I like to imagine, from whatever little information I have received about these people (based on what THEY themselves have made available for me and others to look at and overanalyize) I like to imagine that this people had been at one point or another romantically involved. But I honestly couldn't care less if they weren't. I'm just having fun reading fics online.

My rpf ships are:

Larry (Harry Styles x Louis Tomlinson)

Kaylor (Taylor Swift x Karlie Kloss)

Swiftgron (Taylor Swift x Dianna Agron)

and I guess for the sake of fairness I'll add:

Taylor Swift x Joe Alwyn (bc unlike some gaylors and bi-lors I DO believe they're together for real, and they make me believe in love 🥺)

... Aaaand that's it. That's all the people and characters I ship. 😬

Author Interview:

Thank you to my very talented friends for tagging me: @sickness-health-all-that-shit @thisaintmacys-bitch @iansfreckles @gallavich-x @abundanceofnots @energievie

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

12!

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

99,198.  I have a ton of stuff not crossposted though, and my giant Gallavich file is over 210K.

3. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Meet the Neighbors /489

Eighty-Seven Percent (Anatomy of a Heart) /263

Marriage, Mickey, and Milk of the Gods /250

F*ck the Stars /136

Ease my Pain /103

I have some Tumblr-only stuff that would probably knock that last one from the list, but I haven’t been cross-posting because I’m lazy and I feel like mostly the same people would see it anyway.

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

I did at first, then I stopped for a while because anxiety, but I’m trying to be better about it again!  I like to let people now I appreciate that they took the time to comment, because it does mean a lot, but sometimes my brain gets the better of me and then I stress about it being weird after too long, etc.

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

Nothing on AO3; I don’t really do unhappy endings since life sucks enough already.  On Tumblr I guess this one about Mickey as a kid, but I still went back and did a follow-up.

6. What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?

Hmm...if I go only by full finished fics I don’t have many choices lol.  Even though it’s otherwise rather angsty, I’ll go with Burn Out the Sun because it ends on pure wedding fluff.

7. Do you write crossovers? If so, what is the craziest one you’ve written?

Sort of?  I’ve used settings from Star Wars and X-men, and I have a ongoing fics that includes characters from Parks and Rec (These Undomesticated Wilds) and Jurassic World (Tooth and Claw).  No knowledge of the other universe is ever needed, though; it would just read like a regular AU without it.

8. Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Not that I’m aware of, thankfully.

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

I’m working on it!  I’ve been accepting requests for practice so I can include it in some ongoing fics where it makes sense to do so.

10. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I’m aware of, but I haven’t been around very long anyway.

11. Have you ever had a fic translated?

No, but I think it’s super awesome when people do that!

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

Nope!  And I might be a little too controlling for that.  Unless you count that little writing game that was going around where we all wrote like a paragraph, that was fun!

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

Changes when I stumble across new obsessions, but right now Gallavich obviously.

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

Oh gosh I hope I finish them all.  There are a couple I haven’t started yet though that might never happen, like the Cinderella and Little Mermaid AU concepts I’ve had for forever.

15. What are your writing strengths?

I never knoooow.  I say description because that’s what I like doing, though.

16. What are your writing weaknesses?

Also description lol. I fall into purple prose and keep it cause it sounds pretty in my head so who cares, but I know a lot of people prefer things straightforward.  It’s just not my style, though.

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

I don’t trust myself to do it well.  I only did it once, and I cross-referenced like five different websites and was still a bit uncomfortable with it.  I’ve liked it when other people do it, though I do prefer when the translation is offered immediately (or as a link) so I don’t have to scroll down for it.

18. What was the first fandom you wrote for?

Shameless!  I’ve only lurked in others.

19. What’s a fandom/ship you haven’t written for yet but want to?

I’m thinking I’ll probably do something for Good Omens (Crowley/Aziraphale) during or after season 2.  My other ships are very aged and there wouldn’t be much of an audience anymore, if any.

20. What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

How about the favorite one I’m still writing: A tie between Snow White, Blood Red and Tooth and Claw because I get to play closer to my genre of choice.

I’m super late the the game because my parents’ wifi wasn’t strong enough for my laptop this weekend, so please ignore me if you’ve already been tagged or feel free to add yourself:
