Asking some artists/writers that I follow:

What is the most recent thing you've written or drawn? Do you like to share sneak peeks of your work, or do you prefer to post finished pieces only?

This is the most recent thing I've drawn and it's also still a WIP. I genuinely love sharing things I'm actively working on because I like seeing progress pictures tbh.

Just found your fae au and I’m kind of obsessing! The designs are so cool, and the lore so well thought out. Could I ask some questions about it?

Is Rouge in it, and does she ever meet Winter? Are they friends? (can they pretty please eventually be friends)

What do the seasons do when they’re off duty? Do they do some kind of hibernation?

The fairies come back every year, but could they ever permanently die like a season?

Would it ever be possible for Winter and Summer, or Spring and Fall, to meet? I just kinda want them all to be friends haha

Thanks!

Sure thing, I'll quick-fire answer what I can haha

Rouge is a Winter Fae so she's more familiar with Winter than most! She's the Mistletoe fairy, I've not drawn her yet but I've plans I'll get to her soon!

The Seasons travel! They go around the world bringing Season with them so they're in like a rotation (fantasy rules ignoring actual climates and stuff haha)

The Fae reincarnate annually but some can perma-die, my running idea is that if a plant goes extinct the Fae can't reincarnate as they rebirth from the plant - though Winter Fae don't usually have to reincarnate. (Ideally they'd all follow the life cycles of their respecting plants but it's easier to group them together like this)

The opposing Seasons could technically meet but it would throw things outta wack so there would have to be a significant need for it.

Hey I have an Abot question!!!

So it’s established that epsers belief can influence their powers, and this is a big for Mob throughout the story - a big lie from Mogami produced a power Mob didn’t previously have, because Mob believed he had it when he was told he did

Does this affect all espers??? Like are you actively writing them this way?

I noticed Ritsu look at the spell tag Reigan use in the latest chapter, and probably put together what Reagan’s last minute plan was - how is this gonna affect how he acts?

If an esper knows belief affects their powers can they try to convince themself something is true so their power will make it true?

I’m so interested in how this might play out since we have 3 teen espers to bounce things off each other potentially

(also do you know/remember is this idea of espers being influenced by belief canon or fanon?)

Okay so!!!

Does this affect all espers??? Like are you actively writing them this way?

Yes. However, how innately powerful an esper is also matters. Like even if you convince a weak esper they have the power to randomly blow up the earth, that's not gonna happen because even 100% of their power isn't gonna be enough to blow up the earth. Mogami's lies to Mob (and Reigen that one time) are carefully scaled. And Mob, being so powerful, has a much higher range of susceptibility. Espers like Teru and Ritsu, being much weaker than Mob naturally, are much more limited in how they're influenced by this. But it absolutely does exist for them.

For someone like Ritsu, this actively works against him. His doubt in his own abilities hinders him. He'd hindered from even sensing auras for most of the narrative, and in part he's hindered by that negative feedback loop. "I'm a weak and useless esper who can't even sense auras" easily becomes self-fulfilling. While someone like Teru, who has brazen confidence in his own abilities, is bolstered.

Ritsu takes a step-up in his abilities once he started letting the horde possess him, and while much of that has to do with the actual spirits piloting him, he gets much better at honing his own abilities because of the newfound confidence in himself that he can. (Meanwhile, when he's shattered and at his lowest following Reigen around, he's barely an esper at all.) And in the latest chapter, when he's using his power and Teru's to confront Mogami, he importantly pulls this out as an assertion of confidence - in himself, and what he needs to do to make all of this right - and it's enough to knock the wind out of Mogami's sails.

I noticed Ritsu look at the spell tag Reigan use in the latest chapter, and probably put together what Reagan’s last minute plan was - how is this gonna affect how he acts?

Yup, Ritsu has figured out what happened. That'll be explored in coming chapters. There is, in my opinion, some moral conflict around the whole thing. Thematically, trust--and specifically exploitation of trust--are at the absolute center of the narrative (Can you tell by the title?) Mogami and Reigen, as foils of each other, are both immense liars. Are some lies okay? Is this a lie, considering Reigen stating it made it true...?

I’m so interested in how this might play out since we have 3 teen espers to bounce things off each other potentially

Honestly I think there's some DEEPLY funny potential of like. One of them trying to do something stupid and risky and commissioning the other two to hype him up into believing he can do it. Endless hell potential for Reigen at the center of it.

(also do you know/remember is this idea of espers being influenced by belief canon or fanon?)

I actually think it's just my own idea, haha! Unless I like subconsciously absorbed it from somewhere. I just really like the idea of psychic powers being extremely mentally influenced. And like mp100 already uses that theme, via how Mob's emotions impact his powers of course. But more specifically I just like the idea of "oh these powers come from your mind? well then they REALLY come from your mind. If these powers are psychic then they're tied right down to the core of your psyche."

That kinda thing presents so many fascinating areas of exploration. A depressed esper who's lost confidence in themselves truly becomes incapacitated. Delusions of grandeur are not actually delusions, because in matters of psychic power, only what's in your mind counts. Brainwashing, indoctrination, become massively more terrifying when a psychic is involved. I just think it's neat.

5, 12, 25 for the whump ask game?

5. What character or characters are your favorite to do whumpy things to in your writing? 12. What is one of the strangest things you have had to research for your whumpy writing? 25. What advice or wisdom would you like to share with other whump writers?

Jason Todd. He is my special little guy. I need him Bloody. (there's many reasons for this. no I will not share them)

Strangest thing I had to research was asking my mom (a physician) how to break a 12 year old's arm without permanently injuring the growth plate. This was for a Naruto fic

Advice would beeeeee... Um. Don't just tell us the physical pain. Tell us the emotional stuff. What are they thinking. How are they thinking? People in pain and distress usually don't have coherent thoughts or emotions. Show us that. Let us the audience feel that.

A and T for the fanfic asks, please?

A: Of the fanfic you’ve written, which is your favorite and why?

Tbh this is difficult! I feel like my feelings toward my writing often change. This morning… let’s say Roots!

T: Any fanfic tropes you can’t stand?

There is nothing that will make me scroll past faster than a HP AU. I’m also not a fan of most modern AUs simply because the magic/lore/fantasy of the original story is half the fun! And although I like fluff when it’s sprinkled into fics, I rarely like stories that are primarily fluff just for the sake of it.

(how did you make the numbers so big 😭)

20. Favourite knight.

Ooh, tough, but I'm going to say Gwaine.

25. Pre Merlin headcanons?

Honestly I have more questions than headcanons about the pre-Merlin period (we need a prequel!)

Nimueh: what's her deal. She said she was Uther's friend and she seems to know Gaius well – I like the idea that she was Uther and Ygraine’s Court Sorceress – in practice, if not in title. I don't think it's very likely since it is never mentioned but it's not impossible.

Gaius: we see him use magic a few times but only to save Merlin’s and Alice's lives – and even then almost reluctantly. I like to think he foreswore magic after the Great Purge – not just for Uther's sake, since he lied to his face all the time without feeling particularly guilty about it, but that he actually took an oath never to use magic again as... a form of self-punishment, perhaps? I'm intrigued by the idea.

Hi i got some 'couple' questions for dongwook and harin 😩

1. Who is more like a 'baby' when sick( just found out thats a thing lol)

2.who apologize first after an argument

3.who's more grumpy in the morning

4.who overthinks the most

5.who's more possessive

6.who curses more

1. dongwook for sureeeee. he loves to have harin doting over him so he makes sure to dramatise it

2. dongwook is usually the first one to apologise. he usually apologises mid argument or after the argument when they have both taken time to themselves to calm down

3. all harin wants is more sleep (shout out to her sleeping pills frrr), so if she has to wake up early for a schedule, she’s pissed off as she gets ready, but after eating something, she’s golden

4. harin bcs of the anxiety 💅🏾 she’s an overthinker by nature

5. i’d say they’re both the same amount of possessive, but harin is better at hiding it than dongwook

6. idk how's much dongwook curses in his day to day life but i’ll just say they curse an equal amount

[no-psi-nan]

hsfjdlshfks it's generally considered good practice to only send in one or two asks at a time, jsyk.

> Akechi's room: mildly decorated but mostly housing several collections from various old hyperfixations. Whenever he needs room for a new collection, he takes the old one and sells it online to someone else who still has that hyperfixation. He spends more time than he'd like in his bedroom due to lack of friendships but he likes it there so it's not too bad!

> Akechi's online presence: He's a big wiki editor but also highly polarizing. Because he'll add a ton of correct, sourced information but it will be in the form of huge impenetrable blocks of text and the other editors have to break that up into legible chunks and sometimes remove information that's too niche even for them.

He has a podcast and blog where he delivers impromptu lectures about whatever topic caught his fancy that day. He also has a Twitter even though the word limit is tight, he just adds a million follow up comments or whatever. But he only gets on social media once a day for like 15 minutes during breakfast. He's a busy little guy!!

> Favorite book genre: Mysteries, of course! He likes learning stuff from nonfiction too, but he has a soft spot for shonen manga (since he likes Ciderman). For some reason, I think he'd get a kick out of the occasional historical romance fiction but writes long rants online about every incorrect detail and inconsistency hsfjdlshfks

1. Do you love the colour of the sky?

2. Which Japanese light novel left the best impression on you

3. How long have you been trying

4. Which American media leave the best impression on you

I do! I used to lay on my grass and stare at the sky when I was a kid. I feel like kids don't have time or a desire to spend lazy summer days like that anymore...

Hmm...maybe the Haruhi Suzumiya series? I find it thrilling and so creative. Each volume absolutely captured my heart and imagination.

I'm not sure what this is in relation to...hmm...

4. Oh there are so many! The original Star Wars films, though, probably sparked my love for so much of what I love now. So I'll pick that!

Not familiar with your OCs, so you'll have to pick which one(s) you'll answer for. 7, 17, and 27.

7. describe them in three words. Now let them describe themself in three words: i would describe zavijava as Something's Not Right. she would describe herself as Normal Human Being :)

17. do they like children?: i'll piiiiiick cleo for this one. i think she'd love hanging out with kids!! she loves entertaining them :D

27. forgiveness or vengeance (or…)?: picking fates and her ideology is basically Praying on someone's downfall isn't enough i Need to participate in it

[yell0wsalt]

13, 21, and 29 for the personal asks! :))

13. How many siblings do you have? Are you oldest, middle, or youngest?

I answered that one here! I have one older sister who I now consider my best friend. I hope she thinks so, too. She better 😤 (joking! Sorta 🤣)

21. A song that evokes a good memory?

I think I’ll say Lay All Your Love on Me from A*Teens. I think it was one of the earliest CDs I had as a kid. I had this cute little Hello Kitty stereo and would play some of the CDs I had and sing along/dance to the music around the house. It was fun.

And funny I actually hadn’t heard of ABBA until later in life and didn’t realize as a kid A*Teens was a group that did pop renditions of some of ABBA’s songs

29. How different is your actual adult self from how you pictured it when you were little?

SOO different! I was, for lack of better words, a late bloomer growing up. I would have thought that when I got out on my own, I would have been able to be more liberated and have the ability to have more fun and explore a bunch of different things. Unfortunately theory and practice don’t always translate so well. Timing, responsibilities, yada yada.

So certain aspects are a lot harder where I thought I would’ve had my life together. I’m always having to learn there’s no clear cut definition of “having your life together” and it looks different on everyone. There are different phases and it’s an ever moving end goal when it comes to self development and growth.

2, 9, 10, 19

2. what's a fic that took you to an emotional/dark/hard place?

"the golden dildo" for sure. it took me months between the first and the second half because the level of emotional abuse I was describing took me to some dark places. I've never been in a long term abusive relationship, but I have been in a lot of short term bad situations and getting into the headspace of someone who was being treated very badly but was denying it to preserve a connection was some heavy stuff.

9. what's your writing process like?

open the word document, write and write until my desire to edit what I've written takes over, scroll back up to the top, re-write, get stuck in a transition section, skip to the next section, go back to the transition section, go back to the top, rewrite, get stuck in a transition section - (fast-forward) send to my beta and work and rework the edit 50 times.

10. how has writing positively impacted your mental health or overall mood?

I think the reception especially has been really positive for my mental health. I'm a very private creator and a lot of what I make is limited to the scope of the people closest to me, so to share something so publically and get such a wide, positive reception from people has really made me more excited to share myself creatively on a larger scale. I also enter this headspace when I'm really deep into writing where time fades into the background, and I'm lasered in on whatever I'm working on until it's done and having something that isn't me and my life to focus on is practically a form of meditation.

19. If you could write an ideal fic, what would it include?

wade wilson being peter's dog, leash kink, collar kink, dehumanization, degradation, humiliation, piss, and topping from the bottom.

#mailbox #ask game #once again I want to write dog fic so badly #thanks for the questions!

[rustingcat]

H, T, & W for the ask game please! :)

Lots of questions!

H: How would you describe your style?

My first instinct was to say chaotic like everything else in my life, but then I realised that when it comes to my writing, I'm actually super organised. Like I have very organised files for every fic and every idea, organised neatly by chapter with separate doc for notes and backgrounds. I also write everything in order. So, at least in one area of my life, I'm weirdly neat.

T: Any fandom tropes you can’t stand?

Not sure if it means general tropes or just ones from supercorp specifically, but I don't think there's anything I can't stand. If I don't like something, I just click away.

W: Do you like more general prompts, or more specific ones?

I feel like it really depends on my idea😅

But honestly, they can both be fun and challenging at the same time.

9. favorite smell in the summer?

and

69. a fun fact that you don’t know how you learned?

hmm… favorite smell in the summer… maybe the smell of the ocean? or a campfire? i’ll probably come up with a better answer later but those are both good.

and a fun fact… for some annoying reason i can remember how i learned every fun fact i try to think of. ok, i don’t remember where i first heard this: lichen is not one organism, it’s made up of algae and fungi in a symbiotic relationship. also i don’t remember exactly where i learned that there’s a certain kind of fish that eats the tongues of larger fish and takes their place in the fish’s mouth and eats a bit of everything the fish eats.

autumnal asks!!!!! 🎃 crow (of course 🐦‍⬛ :)), frost and maple??

Crow: what school subject do you wish you had an aptitude for?

--- learning new languages and being better at math. I've attempted 4 languages now and I just.... I cannot retain the information properly. Math is technically a language, too, so. Yeah. Like I can do math! But holy hell is it hard. And it takes a LOT of effort to get through. (Meanwhile I had classmates doing calculus in their head without needing to write down the steps....)

I already answered the other two! So I'll answer two others instead 💛

Pumpkin: do you think humans are inherently good or bad?

--- I think humans as a species are inherently neutral. We are neither good or bad we just Are. Individual humans are something else tho and what they are is complicated.

Ghost: is there someone you miss having in your life?

Many someone's. Some have been harder to let go of then others, but I'm trying.

BONUS:

Harvest: what fictional character do you most identify with? Why?

Murderbot 💛 obviously. I've never related to a character more. It's autistic it's agender it's aroace spec. It's anxious and depressed and trying it's best. It just wants to help people and would do anything for the people it loves. I could go on all night.
