for the meme, all numbers that are multiples of 5!

5. since how long do you write?

i started writing terrible short fiction and poetry in elementary school and writing fanfiction online in middle school. some of the evidence still exists. 

10. how do you do your researches?

okay, shout out to the @scriptmedic and their family of blogs -- these are writing reference blogs, run by people in specific fields, on a number of topics including medicine, social work, history, pharmacology, the military. 

i also tend to just...google things until i find sources i think are useful. i have science reference books leftover from college. sometimes i consult a real person. 

for canon, the source material is best, but another shout out to yugioh wikia, which has detailed summaries of every ep, down to the duels turn by turn, deck lists, you name it.

15. hardest verse to write

i assume in this context “verse” is short for universe, and we’re not talking about poetry. hmm...i find fantasy aus difficult. 

20. favorite character to write

u already know it’s ryoga kamishiro/nasch from zexal. but i also really like writing integra hellsing from hellsing.

25. favorite line you’ve ever written

oh, man, that’s hard. um...

this bit from heart, could we bear the marvel of this thing?

“And when Ryoga looks into Yuuma’s eyes, he forgets that he is a star, burning alone and apart in the cold; instead he becomes a planet, caught in the gravitational pull of Yuuma’s love, always falling towards him (always falling for him), never landing.”

30. hardest part of writing

getting the first draft on the page is the hardest part for me. i actually really enjoy editing, and once i’ve got the text on the page i can generally polish it up to posting level, but actually finishing drafts is my kryptonite.

35. single story or multi-part story?

hmm...i don’t know? i think they both have their place. i’ve written a lot more oneshots and shortfics than i have multi-chapter pieces, but that wasn’t a conscious decision. i think some stories just need more space.

also, a good portion of my shorter work was written at 4 am right after watching zexal live, mostly to traumatize hitomi. so.

40. which or your stories would you like to see as a movie/series?

ooooo that’s hard. um. none of the pwp, obviously. i would say either and whatever a sun will always sing is you or tapetum lucidum.

45. share the synopsis of a story you work on that you haven’t published yet

Denarian Nasch is rescued from certain death by his archenemy, Knight of the Cross Yuuma Tsukumo. Betrayed by his fellow Denarians, having lost his coin, he has no choice but to accept Yuuma’s offer of protection. But the longer Nasch stays with Yuuma, the less he feels like an enemy..,and the more he feels like a friend.

50. open question to the writer

well, goo, you didn’t actually ask me anything. so instead i’ll tell you something random.

i’m pretty sure the first zexal fic i ever wrote was about mizael getting turned into a poodle, but the first thing i wrote was this fic based on the fake zexal summary spoilers. when i admitted to this in real life, someone hit me. i’m still so proud.
