Year in review (eventually)
Thanks go out to @itsmoonpeaches for suggesting I give this a shot.
1. Number of stories posted to Ao3: 14, total, all LOK-based.
2. Word count in 2022: 96,206
3. Fandoms I wrote for: Avatar: The Legend of Korra
4. Pairings: Lin Beifong/Kya II (3); Lin Beifong/Reader (1); Lin Beifong/Pema/Tenzin (9); Other (1 - shorts with various pairs, if any)
5. Stories with the most:
Kudos: Lin’s Interview, part 4 of Give Us Your Hand (Pemlinzin)
Bookmarks: Two Pairs of Eyes, (Kyalin)
Comment threads:  Elemental Changes, Lin Beifong-centric multi-chapter
Word count: Elemental Changes 
6. Work I’m most proud of (and why):  I’m sure it’s cheating, but I have 3 answers. 
1: Elemental Changes: This started with an image in my mind, and I wrote the whole thing before I published any of it. And the art I commissioned from @slowdissolve kickstarted a whole new experience for us both.
2: The In-Between Years: I managed to take all 30 prompts from Angstpril 2022 and string them into a mostly coherent story, writing no more than 1000 words at a time. Not every day is a gem, but I am happy with the progress of the story from high angst to an amicable resolution.
3. Give Us Your Hand: What started as a 507-word @flashfictionfridayofficial prompt blossomed into a 46K-word, 9-part series (so far).
7.   Work I’m least proud of (and why): This is ‘least’ proud in a set of stories I’m really pretty happy with. I’m going to throw Now Is Not the Time under the bus, because in retrospect, it’s kind of a rewrite of I’m Sorry I Need You.
8.   Share or describe a favorite review you received: This isn’t quite what the question asks, but having @slowdissolve say she would have done my commission for free was right up there in the highlight reel. And those three little hearts from @mjsharizai are always an absolute treat.
9.   A time when writing was really, really hard: I’m still very new on the writing wagon, having just started writing for a hobby in early 2021. Thankfully, I’m old enough that when it’s hard, I just set it aside and come back when the ideas are ready.
10. A scene or character you wrote that surprised you: I just can’t answer the questions the right way tonight. Here, I’m going with the whole Pemlinzin ship. How little goody-goody two-shoes me wound up writing polyamory is something I should think through at some point in my life.
11. A favorite excerpt of your writing:  
This feels very odd to describe as a favorite. It engendered my first negative review which was so mean-spirited that it was, in its own way, the fire that helped me write the next seven entries in the series. From Mistakes (Give Us Your Hand, part 2):
[Tenzin] sighed. “About a week before he died, she came to visit. She was being Toph, trying to pretend it wasn’t that bad, that he wasn’t dying. Mom left them alone to talk and went to lay down for a little while.”
He shivered. “I wasn’t with them. I just heard Mom shouting. When I got to Dad’s room, Mom was healing him, and Toph was crying. She had punched him like always. But this time, her punch knocked him into the wall and he hit his head. It wasn’t terrible, Mom got him comfortable, but Toph didn’t come back after that. I know she and Mom saw each other at the memorial, and I know they basically made up. But then I hurt you.”
He squeezed Lin closer.
“They were best friends for over forty years. But one argument broke their relationship.”
12. How did you grow as a writer this year: This is a question I think will be easier to answer in retrospect. I was able to complete a couple of larger projects, even after I got so far into them that I kinda didn’t know what to do. I’m just so new at this I mostly can only see my weaknesses.
13. How do you hope to grow next year: Differentiating speaking styles and speech patterns between characters is a sore spot for me re-reading my own writing. I also know I’m not great at describing the interiority of characters. And starting fewer sentences with ‘and,’ ‘so,’ or an adverbial phrase {not an English major, I forget what the technical term is}.
14. Who was your greatest positive influence this year as a writer (could be another writer or beta or cheerleader or muse etc etc):
I think that should be obvious by now. I owe @slowdissolvee a lot of credit.
15. Anything from your real life show up in your writing this year: 
I’ve been married for 25 years and have 2 kids. There’s a lot of blood, sweat, tears, and memory in what I write.
16. Any new wisdom you can share with other writers: 
Be where you are. Sure, your readers are interested in seeing your updates, but your life comes first. #YourAudienceAwaits - and the patient ones are worth listening to. 
I’m going to offer a slightly different perspective than @itsmoonpeachessmoonpeaches, who was so kind as to suggest I take on this exercise. All while not disagreeing with her here:
Don’t be afraid to break out of your comfort zone. You will never grow as a writer if you continue to write the same things over and over again. If you have an idea for something very different, go for it! It takes a lot of effort and time to do something you don’t normally do, but you will end up being better after it.
I know I’ve already written the same story at least twice (see above), but it served me to write both of those stories. I clearly had some thinking to do on the topic.
17. Any projects you’re looking forward to starting (or finishing) in the new year: I cannot put into words how much fun I’m having on Red Jade. Between working with Slowdissolve and getting to read the other Linzolt writers’ stories, I have been grinning for months.
18. Tag some writers whose answers you’d like to read:
All in fun, friends. If it’s not fun, leave it be: @slowdissolve @orangepanic @master-sass-blast @pamplemousseparadox @superliz6 @chaoticnerdsstuff @wishingforatypewriter
And anyone else who wants to!

An Urzai prompt, but it involves disregarding everything in The Legend of Korra and the comics. It also involves Aang dying, perhaps after getting killed. What would you think if it turned out that Ozai DID have lines that he would never cross, and that he drew the line at bending theft? What if Ozai saw Aang about to steal Azula’s bending, and ends up throwing himself in front of Azula as Aang is about to steal her bending, and Aang’s spirit bending impacts Ozai instead, unexpectedly giving...
Tumblr media
That's certainly an interesting idea, anon. I can definitely see Ozai hating even just the idea of having one's bending taken away, considering bending sacred or integral to the bender, but I see a couple issues with this AU right off the bat: number one, why would Aang take Azula's bending away? Is she trying for the throne? He didn't do it in canon (as far as we know, disregarding the comics ofc), so what's different here? Number two, unless Noriko was simply Ursa in disguise and didn't have an entirely different face, why would Ozai fall in love with her? Number three, energybending seems to be precise and deliberate--how would Ozai get waterbending from an accident?
It's a cool AU idea, which is why I’m posting it, but it needs some work. That's all.

So, I know you did Pride Prompts last year - and you tend to have a lot of LGBTQ stuff on your blog anyway, which means the world 🌈 but I'm curious about what your fav characters ??? I always find it interesting to see what people grew up on / found their identity with
OOOh! First of all, thank you! I'm glad you enjoy the mad content on this dumpster fire of a blog 😉 I hope y'all are having a great Pride month. Secondly, this is such a fun question!
I'm gonna pick the LGBTQ characters / couples that meant the most / impacted me most growing up - if that's ok. Some were canon off screen and some were just the first examples I ever got to see on tv, which allowed me to realise being Bi was a thing and that I wasn't straight.
Tara x Willow (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Korra x Asami (Legend of Korra)
Santana x Brittany (Glee)
Magnus x Alex (The Mortal Instruments)
Captain Jack (Doctor Who)
✨ Honorary mention goes to Keira Knightley (as Elizabeth Swann) for making me realise I liked girls too... 😉

the last one from domestic, kyalin pls 😊
Thank you for your ask. I written it this morning but couldn't post it till now. I hope you don't mind my crappy writing. I hope you enjoy qwq
Lin inhaled the lightly air, the chilling autumn air already signaling that it was beginning. Lin took one last deep breath of the air and soon pulled out a cigarette. She lit it and soon she inhaled the sweet and addictive taste of the pollution.
She was invited to a sleepover with the girls and Suyin was already passed out from the alcohol she was sipping and Izumi talking to Kya. Everything was supposed to be a peaceful night but for some reason the police officer was restless.
Her mother forced her to take 2 weeks off to rest her nerves. Listening to the soft lapping of water at the shore was something she never quite got used to. She missed the sounds of cars, the twinkling of lights and as odd as it was the different smells of pollutants and food.
Lin could still see the scene before her, a homicide that was a mess. It shaken Lin to her core seeing the younger woman, a girl near the age of her sisters. Lin's fingers twitched as she didn't want to think anymore more of it but of course that didn't work.
Suddenly the sounds of the sliding door being opened signalled Lin to snuff out her cigarette. Lin was ready to snuff it out she heard Kya's voice. "You don't need to put it out."
Lin turned her head to see the waterbender and she furrowed her brows. "Wheres Zumi?" She asked softly.
Kya smiled and walked towards her and draped herself agaisnt the railing. "She went to bed 2 hours ago."
Lin's brows furrowed and looked at the moon and then inside to see it dark inside. "I... the lights were just on though." She mumbled thoughtfully. She looked down to see she smoked 4 cigarettes.
Kya could see Lin start panicking and she pressed a hand to her lower back. "You're okay Lin." She said softly. "What's on your mind?" She said rubbing her back.
Lin swallowed roughly and sniffed the cigarette out and pinched the bridge of her nose. With a heavy sigh she brushed her fingers through her curls and looked back out to the moon.
"Something bad happened Kya." She brushed her fingers through her hair to try and get a grip of herself. "I usually am okay with all kinds of cases. Thieves, accidental crashes, homicide." She whispered the last part.
"I'm usually fine with them but... with the way Su's being. The constant rebelliousness... the way she sneaks out at night."
Kya watched as the nervous woman began to ramble. The job appeared to be breaking Lin's emotions and brain.
"The homicide... was a bad one. A drughead killed a girl just because she didn't have any on her. It was a mess." Lin gripped her tighter and inhaled the salty air.
"What if.... what if that happens to Su? Then there would be nothing I can do." She breathed. "She no longer listens to me. Chief doesn't do anything... what am I to do?" Lin looked over at Kya with tears in her eyes. "Not to mention the fact that I just... I feel so weak. Upon seeing the damn girl I froze. I couldn't do shit. I was taken out of there. No doubt everyone is going to start talking about me." She blew out a breath and sighed.
Kya sighed and pulled her in for a hug and hugged her tightly. "I want to tell you what I've learned on the road this past two years." Kya leaned more against Lin as she felt Lin grip onto her.
"There will always be bad guys. Always be bad people in the world to do bad stuff. And there will always be people like you Lin. People that will protect others." She inhaled gently and cupped her cheek.
"And then you have the drifters. Or people that are trying to figure themselves out. Lin... Suyin is a teenager. A girl trying to find what she wants in the world." Kya could feel Lin's jaw tense, she knowing Lin wouldn't like this at all.
"Suyin is going through tough shit. Just like you are. You remember how hard you pushed yourself just so you can be the best that you are. You used to wake up at the crack of dawn to work out, to try and please your mother."
Lin growled softly and tried to step put of Kya's embrace. But do to Kya's holding she was trapped. She never knew Kya was this strong.
"Suyin is trying to find herself. She's scared can't you see? I admit she's a brat but what can we do? The more we try to control her the more she will try and break free." Lin sighed and pressed her head into her shoulder.
"Suyin isn't that girl you saw. Suyin wouldn't let anyone touch her. Suyin would beat their ass. You know why?" Lin looked up searching for the answer in her eyes.
"Why?" She asked softly feeling a bit better having Kya be by her side.
"Because Su was able to take you down." Kya laughed.
Lin growled and pulled out of her hug and crossed her arms. "Not funny." She grumbled hating Kya now.
Kya chuckled and wrapped her arms around her, ignoring Lin's pushing away. "Kya I swear if you don't let go of me now I'll-"
Kya leaned forward and pressed a kiss to her lips. Lin's lips tasted of tobacco, and the alcohol she drank a couple hours ago. Kya pressed her agaisnt the railing as she gripped onto her hip.
"You would never let anything happen to Su." Kya murmured against her lips. "Lin Beifong wouldn't allow it."
Lin blushed in the kiss and closed her eyes. After the kiss she sighed and leaned into Kya. Her fingers fingers her dress and holding onto her, preventing her from leaving. "Thank you Kya, I really needed that."
Kya rubbed her back and cuddled her Linny. "The kiss or the talk?" Kya said cheekily.
Lin laughed and rolled her eyes. "Don't push it." She snorted.
"Worth a shot." Kya mumbled kissing her temple.

It’s headcanon time, Korvira edition! The following prompt was discussed on Discord and I liked it so much that I just had to post my take here. 
Okay, so let's say Korra finds out there’s a legend that tells of the possibility of a spiritual conception, which could mean having a child of their own for her and her wife Kuvira. I mean, it’s not the most preposterous concept for these two given the fact these babes already birthed a Spirit portal together.😉 Anyway, back to the idea. So Korra and Jinora travel in spirit form to the Spirit World on a very special quest to find out all about this. When they return with the happy news that Korra has been granted this very special priviledge, she runs towards Kuvira who has been waiting for them anxiously at Air Temple Island, lifts her up and exclaims at the top of her lungs: "let's make a baby!" The whole island goes silent. Kuvira almost earthbends the ground below her but once the embarrassment wears off, she enthusiastically merges with her wife in a loving embrace.
What follows is a long and exhaustive conversation in which Kuvira finally decides to carry the pregnancy so Korra can go on with her Avatar duties unencumbered. It is a very emotional exchange given the fact of Kuvira’s difficult childhood and her insecurities but Korra dispels all reassuring Kuvira she’ll become an excellent mom just as she has been a lovely wife to her.
How would Kuvira behave while expecting? Our mom-to-be will devour every book about pregnancy and child-rearing available, while Jinora and Asami will gather magazines and newspaper articles so she can keep up with the latest information on the subject, because we know Kuvira won’t settle for less. 
Suyin, suspecting her protege will indulge in her workaholic tendencies even when pregnant,  will send her and Korra to a wellness retreat so she can relax in preparation for the sleepless nights that await them once the baby is born.  Despite Kuvira's initial protestations, she enjoys the retreat as a bonding experience with her little family.
Kya who's been midwife for Pema and Suyin, will monitor her pregnancy and recomend a healthy and tasty diet fit for two. 
Kuvira will continue working and exercising as her pregnancy allows it (because workaholic) but on the last month, Korra will insist she rests the weeks before the baby is expected to arrive. During this time, Asami will drop by to play pai sho. The bending brothers make the mistake of challenging them, so the girls team up and demolish them.
Asami will provide her friends with Future Industries state-of-the-art strollers with all the comforts and safety features a discerning parent would want (but we know the baby will ride Naga when she's old enough to do so). 
Meanwhile, Korra will take doula lessons so she can actively participate along with Kya on the birth. She has a rudimentary grasp of what happens during labor due to her training as healer, but the classes give her the confidence to help Kuvira through the delivery. Korra is also the most enthusiastic and supportive partner of all the couples taking the childbirth classes led by Pema.
On the big day, once her water breaks, Kuvira will calmly prepare herself for the event with Naga keeping close watch. Korra, overwhelmed with the knowledge that she’s about to meet their daughter, spaces out like a dork until Kya arrives. 
During contractions, Kuvira will go over her breathing exercises like a pro. Labor is painful but relatively short because even during childbirth, Kuvira strives for efficiency, while Korra proves to be a great assistant to Kya. 
Kuvira will be all calmed and collected up until the moment Kya puts a little bundle in her arms and then, she breaks down to cry with Korra like the sentimental dorks they are when they glimpse at their baby’s tiny face for the first time.🥺🥰

@scribeofred tagged me for this and I figured, why not?
1. What fandoms have you written for?
A fair few. Let’s see...Fire Emblem (various games), Bleach, Samurai Champloo, One Piece, Digimon, Avatar the Last Airbender, Legend of Korra, Young Justice, Supernatural, Voltron: Legendary Defender, and Castlevania
2. How many works do you have on AO3 &/or FFNet?
There are 35 stories on FF.net and 54 works on AO3. Seven of those are posted on both accounts.
3. What are your top 3 fics by kudos on A03 &/or Favs on FFNet?
AO3 has the most (the highest fave count on FF.net is only 904). All 3 are Voltron fics:
Routine Maintenance, by a landslide 1678
Pillar in the Dark, at 1037
Parasite Knight, at 962
4. Which 3 fics have the least kudos & Favs?
Some of my very old Fire Emblem fics are the ones that have the least, but those are all on FF.net. For AO3, the lowest 3 are all Voltron fics, tied at 71:
Genesis, understandable since it’s a niche fusion AU
Coin Toss, again understandable since it’s the most recent fic in a very long AU/Canon Divergent series
Team Tactics, sadly understandable since it’s a niche fic about Allura and Zarkon
5. Which Fic has the most comments and which has the least?
On AO3, the clear winner is Premium Pandemonium (Voltron), with a whopping 550 comments (and I love everyone of you that left one!) The fic with the least comments is A Test of Faith (Supernatural) with a whole 5.
On FF.net we actually have one that beats out even AO3 for max comments: Asteria Nightmare (One Piece), with 613. 
6. Which complete fic do you wish had gotten more attention?
Either A Thousand Burning Eyes or Glass Half Full. Both are Voltron fics I put a lot of work into (especially Thousand Burning Eyes) but only had a handful of dedicated readers. It’s understandable though, since they were both about relatively unpopular or niche characters. 
I’ll admit I was also a bit disappointed with the response to Forced Respite (Castlevania) especially since several people requested I post it and expressed interest in it, and then didn’t actually leave any kind of feedback. But the fandom in general also seemed very unresponsive, so I’m not really surprised. 
7. Have you written any crossovers?
It’s practically one of my calling cards at this point. Especially Fusion AU’s. I’ve also done a couple fic crossovers between two different canon divergent AU series with @bosstoaster
8. What is the craziest fic you’ve written?
Crazy in what sense? If most ambitious/time consuming, undoubtedly Premium Pandemonium. 
9. What’s the fic you’ve written with the saddest ending?
Hmm...I generally do bittersweet angles more than pure sad. But the ones that seemed to hit people the hardest emotionally would be either Paying Respects (Voltron) or One Day Late (One Piece).
10. What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?
“Happiest endings” isn’t really my forte, but I guess if I had to pick one, Personal Growth (Voltron). It’s just generally a nice, relaxed vibe about a character enjoying his new hobby.
11. What is your smuttiest fic?
Tumblr media
Yeah I don’t write smut. Not my thing.
12. Have you ever received hate on a fic?
I did years ago on one of my One Piece fics. At the time it upset me, but now I look back on it and laugh at how petty the commenter was.
13. What is the nicest comment you’ve received?
I can’t pick just one! I’ve had so many lovely comments!
14. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
I’ve had fics pulled onto those other fansites, yeah. It happens.
15. How many fics do you have marked as incomplete?
Only one! From years and years ago in my early Fire Emblem days. I also specifically stated the fic might not ever be finished, too. 
As a general rule, I don’t post fanfics at all until they’re fully completed. Then people can safely invest their time in my stories and I don’t leave them hanging. 
16. Which of the WIPS will most likely be finished first?
Well the one fic above never will be. I have a WIP currently in progress for a new/old fandom, but it’s going quite well and should be completed soon. It’s also not actually public yet (and likely will not be for a while).
17. Which WIP are you looking forward to finishing?
The aforementioned new/old fandom one in #16.
18. Is there a WIP that you’re considering abandoning?
I’ve got quite a few fic skeletons that probably will never be completed in all kinds of fandoms. None of them have ever been posted, though, so nothing public has ever been left unfinished.
19. Which complete fic would you consider rewriting?
I don’t know if I would completely re-write any, but there are a number from my One Piece and Young Justice fandoms that I wouldn’t mind giving a little polish to. I plan to do that one day when I eventually get off my lazy butt and transfer them to AO3 from FF.net. 
20. Which complete fic is your favourite?
This is always changing, honestly. I’m really proud of a lot of my work. Currently Premium Pandemonium is the one I’m most proud of, because it was such an investment of time an energy and planning. I’m still extremely fond of Prince of Memory though, because it practically wrote itself and it still feels powerful even years later.
21. What’s your total published word count?
On AO3: 1,442,436
On FF.net:  1,118,411
Bear in mind, there is some crossover between about 7 fics for those counts. I also have a couple assorted fics posted to tumblr only for prompt challenges that I think I still haven’t cross-posted to AO3. I should do that at some point...
Thanks for the tag @scribeofred and anyone else can feel free to play :)

Fic Meme
Tagged by the incomporable @walkthegale
Name: Cass
Fandom(s): At the moment it consists of: The Worst Witch (2017), The Bletchley Circle, Call the Midwife, with a dash of Legend of Korra and the return to one of my teenage obssesions Who’s the Boss?
Where you post: AO3 and Tumblr
Most Popular One Shot (by kudos) this year: Where I Sleep which is a cozy kyalin domestic caretaking fic bc I’m nothing if not thoroughly on brand. 
Most Popular One Shot (by kudos) overall: Take a Look At My Girlfriend which is a Michaela/Laurel from htgawm fic (written before canon made me get bitter at Laurel) which is a fake dating 5+1 fic. Once again, pretty on brand for me. 
Most Popular Multi-Chapter (by kudos) this year: Well I only wrote one multichap this year and it was How This Grace Things Works which is a kyalin post s3 fic in which Kya takes longer than a couple weeks to recover from FALLING FROM A CLIFF with lots of family times, domesticity, frustrations of recovering and falling in love. 
Most Popular Multi-Chapter (by kudos) overall: It’s A Way to Ignite, a swanqueen au wherein Emma is a firefighter and Regina is an elementary school principal. It took me two years to finish and has some sweet comedic moments. 
Favourite story you’ve written so far: I couldn’t possibly choose honestly but if you’re looking for the most on brand thing I’ve ever written it’s this hackle longfic Let Me Hand You My Love. It’s got a marriage of convenience, bed sharing, kissing for “practice” sake, slow burn, mutual pining, etc. 
Fic you were nervous to post: let us posses one world, each hath one, and is one which is an e rated fic with a threesome for The Bletchley Circle. It was the first time I’d written a sexual situation where the theme didn’t include romance and that is a definitely out of my normal realm. I’m very proud of it though because it is about friendship and support and I think I did it a good bit of justice. 
How do you choose your titles?: Song lyrics or poems. 
Do you outline?: Yep. Always for multichap/longfics and for oneshots it depends. 
Complete works: 219 on AO3 and I have no idea how many are on tumblr. (There is one Star Trek wip on ao3 that I swear I will return to one day.)
In-Progress works: I’m currently working on a hackle oneshot and a cozy Christmas oneshot for tony/angela from who’s the boss. I have various other things I’m thinking about/adding a sentence to every now and then but those first two are the ones I’m really working on.
Coming soon/not yet started: Everything else? I’ve honestly given up predicting what ideas my brain will latch onto. 
Prompts?: I take them occasionally but not at the moment. I still have holiday prompts from last year ( @amusedrhyme I will finish that fireworks prompt for you I SWEAR) and a couple other things I want to get to but life is life so we’ll see. 
Upcoming work you’re most excited about: The two in progress ones I mentioned. 
Tagging: @toastweasel, @rikubean, @songbookff, @romanimp, and @dinovia-grant

20 Fic Writer Questions
Thanks @chiefbeifongcanrailme for tagging me this.
1) How many works do you have on AO3?
17 (with too many drafts waiting to be finished)
2) What’s your total AO3 word count?
160885
3) How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?
2. Legend of Korra and On My Block
4) What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
1| Harmony : Did a re-write first because it felt most comfortable as a place to start for Linzin. And the what-if they had kids, what  things I think would go slightly differently was something I had wonderd while watching. (I still find it a little wild that I’m approaching 100k words on this)
2| The Wandering Airbender: Tbh, this is my favourite AU to write which is part of my issue on the main story because I keep overthinking how things should go.
3| He’s a what now? : I think any couple having a firebender is chaotic in and of itself when they didn’t even know it was a possibility but Linzin? The couple everyone was looking to for several airbenders and no one thinks them having a firebender is plausible? Yeah this was to be a oneshot but it got away from me.
4| Trains: My first oneshot in the Harmony AU. There was a prompt in discord that gave me a start but the trains part was really a result of missing my little brother who is obsessed with them.
5| Adjustments : This one was more about trying to be realistic re Lin working a demanding job and her relationship with her kids. Where Harmony begins, they’ve found a rhythm as a family but things like that take work and being intentional.
5) Do you respond to comments, why or why not?
Always! When I started reading I would appreciate responses so when I started writing I tried to stay on top of comments on my work. 
6) What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?
Tbh, I don’t really do angst. Especially not angsty endings (team happily ever after) because I think really good angst makes you super sad to read (which makes me sad to write and with everything happening, I try to avoid other things to make me sad). My user name is VR_Tearbenda for a reason lol. The angstiest fic I’ve written (and published) is probably To feel . My only actually angsty ending is an affair fic but its not my usual type of stuff so I didn’t feel comfortable publishing on AO3 (maybe one day I will put it here but it would be unedited).
7) What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?
Happy endings are my comfort zone so I think all of them could be considered happy. Happiest though? Of my completed works I think Lighting or Under the Stars honestly, it’s hard to pick.
8) Do you write crossovers? If so, what is the craziest one you’ve written?
No. I like reading them but doubt I will ever write one.
9) Have you ever received hate on a fic?
No enuh. I figure if there’s nothing good to say don’t say it. (I really appreciate respectful feedback)
10) Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
I have tried but never get very far. One of my On My Block fics include it (while they are in their 20s)
11) Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not to my knowledge
12) Have you ever had a fic translated?
Don’t think so
13) Have you ever co-written a fic before?
No. I think it would be cool to work on a story or two though.
14) What’s your all-time favorite ship?
All time? That’s rough. I’m going to give my current top 3: Linzin, Bumizumi and ShikaTema
15) What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?
Ever? A multi-chaptered post canon Linzin fic. It wouldn’t be more than say ten chapters if I ever finish it though.
16) What are your writing strengths?
I’m not sure. Honestly I’m surprised I ended up writing up as much as I do because I’m more of a numbers person.
17) What are your writing weaknesses?
I lean more into telling rather than showing.
18) What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?
I don’t mind them.
19) What was the first fandom you wrote for?
On My Block (Monsar) on Wattpad 
20) What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?
Favourite? I think it has to be one of these four The Wandering Airbender , To feel or  Lighting or He’s a what now? . Harmony will always have a special place in my heart though.
May or may not be looking for a beta reader on a fic or two
Feel free to drop me a message!

FANNDDOMMMMM ANSWER WHENEVER i know yure busy ♡
C, J, Z!!!
Thanks for the ask, @elciaisshrinking. Oh it’s okay. I am not doing anything earth-shattering, lol.
C - A ship you have never liked and probably never will (be nice): Kataang. Unequivocally. Always. And forever. Kataang.
J - Name a fandom you didn’t care/think about until you saw it all over tumblr I think you know the answer to this, lol. The Untamed. Saw it on Netflix several times but kept passing it over, because the length was intimidating and the outline that Netflix gave was not appealing to me. But then, I saw it on Tumblr. All over on Tumblr. I think the first post about it that caught my attention was the “Jin Ling’s uncle” post. That cracked me up, even though I knew nothing about the story. Then I realized the show has some really pretty people. But I was still ambivalent. Then I saw a gif of Xiao Zhan smiling. I swear I haven’t seen a prettier smile. I guess that was when I decided, I am going to give it a go. First episode did not catch my interest and second one left me confused. But @terribleteej​, @avauntus​ and @arlothia​ would not let me drop it. I am deeply thankful that they did not let me drop it, for had I tapped out then, I would have missed something truly special and spectacular. I highly recommend this piece of art to everyone. Z - Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go (prompts optional but encouraged)
Ramble? Okay then, I shall ramble about Avatar and the utterly toxic relationship of Kataang.
ATLA has some of the best female characters to ever grace the screen. Be it the girls from the Gaang, i.e. Katara, Toph and Suki, or the villains in Azula, Mai and Ty Lee. Each of those characters are complex, strong and yet vulnerable and so very human. In the show, they each have their own arcs, independent of the boys in their lives and have their own strengths and failings. Katara, the female lead, goes from a spirited girl from South Pole who is struggling with her bending to arguably the most powerful waterbender of her generation. She has her own mind and is not afraid to speak it, even when she is wrong. She has enough darkness inside her to come on the verge of killing Yon Rha, and yet, has enough light within her to stop in time. She is a strong enough healer to bring Aang back from death after Azula kills him. She has it in her to forgive Zuko, the person she has projected all her anger and hatred for the Fire Nation and the one she (to some extent, rightly so) holds responsible for almost losing Aang and consequently the war. She had no idea about Zuko’s complicated history or the reason he chose to do what he did in the Crystal Catacombs. To her, it was a betrayal, and she reacts accordingly. She also beats the crazed Azula, fair and square. And she does all of that when she was fourteen!
And then? What happens after that? She becomes the trophy wife of Aang. She diminishes in the background to the point that when Legend of Korra rolls around, we don’t even see a statue of hers in the Republic City. There are gigantic statues of Aang, Zuko, Toph and Sokka. Where are Katara and Suki? They too contributed to the end of the war. During the war, Aang forces two kisses on her, both of which take her by surprise and she is visibly upset by it. (Let’s not even get into the pre-teen kissing there). And yet, Aang assumes that since he has “laid a claim” on the “maiden”, she belongs to him. When she tries to tell him that she hasn’t given them a thought, because they are in the middle of a war, Aang throws a hissy fit. He says that he is angry enough that if his chakra wasn’t blocked, he would go into the Avatar state. He knows Katara doesn’t like seeing him in the Avatar state and yet, he uses that to blackmail her into accepting his advances. Over the course of their travels, Katara forms a deep bond with Zuko, based on mutual trust and respect. They work well together and compliment each other well. The makers show us a healthy relationship and wonderful dynamic between two people and then, at the end, she chooses to go with Aang. Who is twelve. Who hasn’t even hit puberty. And they go on to live happily every after, having three babies and just be the lovey dovey couple? I haven’t read the comics, from the little that I have seen, I just see Aang continuing the same cycle of toxicity and Katara just becoming more and more diminished. That annoys the stuffing out of me.
To be honest, the more I think about it, the more I realize that Aang was a kind of self-insert by Bryke. Through him, they were going for some sort of wish fulfillment. Because, honestly, I have been a 14 year old. And, shallow as it sounds, no 14 year old girl will choose a bald 12 year old guy over a 16 year old boy who is, frankly way more attractive. Especially when she shares a good bond with the 16yo. Phew, that was a long rant. I don’t know how much of that stream of consciousness made sense, but yeah. That’s my take. I also have issues with the frankly wonky math of the show, but that’s a post for another time.

She-Ra and TLOK Crossover Prompt
I’ve got the best idea for a crossover between the Legend of Korra and She-Ra. This would take place just after the final episode for each show. Korra and Asami would be on their trip in the Spirit World and Catra and Adora on a date in the Whispering Woods. A giant boar interrupts Catra and Adora and chases them into a cave. Emerging from the cave they exit into a very similar wood in the Spirit world and come across the other couple. There still needs to be a central conflict, but the Spirit world would be perfect setting.
If anyone builds on this prompt please let me know! also feel free to comment ideas.

Tagged by @cassiopeiasara !
Name: songbook
Fandom(s): Currently, my main fandom is Legend of Korra. I have written for quite a few though, including Harry Potter, Star Trek, Star Wars, Downton Abbey, and so many more. 
Where you post: AO3 & here on tumblr 
Most Popular One Shot (by kudos) this year: For Spirits’ Sake (Keep Your Hands to Yourself). It is a Kyalin oneshot about Kya teasing both Tenzin and Lin. 
Most Popular One Shot (by kudos) overall: Different Lifetimes. This is my Spones (Star Trek) one shot I wrote back in 2016. 
Most Popular Multi-Chapter (by kudos) this year: Spirits Intertwined. Of course. This is my pet project of 2020. It’s gotten me back into fandom and a way of escape from this insane year. 
Most Popular Multi-Chapter (by kudos) overall: So, apparently  Spirits Intertwined just slightly edges out Elusive Spirits now. 
Favourite story you’ve written so far: This would have to be Different Lifetimes. It’s a one-shot but it has so much emotion and it holds a special place in my heart. This year though, I finally finished/rewrote my Harry Potter fic: From My House to Yours and it also means a lot to me. 
Fic you were nervous to post: That would probably be The General and the Admiral, because I don’t usually write AUs. But I wouldn’t describe it as nervousness...just something new. 
How do you choose your titles?: They come to me in my sleep. 
Do you outline?: For chaptered fics, absolutely. For oneshots...not always. 
Complete works: On AO3 it says I have 30 works, of which, 29 are complete. But I have so many little ficlets on tumblr, not to mention the fics I wrote years ago, before I started posting on AO3. 
In-Progress works: Spirits Intertwined is the only thing I have unfinished that is posted. 
Coming soon/not yet started: Well, this is a loaded question. I have a couple of LoK ideas that revolve around Kyalin and one that focuses on Bumi. Otherwise, I always have a few Star Trek & Star Wars fics on the back burner that I write on occasionally. 
Prompts?: My inbox is always open, but I can’t make any promises that I will write them. I use prompts as writing exercises most of the time. 
Upcoming work you’re most excited about: Probably the Bumi oneshot. 
I’d tag people, but I think all my mutuals have already been tagged. So if you want to do this, just tag me!

requests are open!
if you guys want to request any one shots please do! i’m blocked right now, and i’d love to work on some new prompts, ideas, or characters :)
if you would be so kind as to read my slightly over-detailed, but important, guidelines:
1. the things i will NOT write: anything incest-y, or between a definite minor and adult. for example, i don’t mind blurring the lines between 18 and 16, but i’m not about to write sirius falling in love with 3rd year hermione - that’s a BIG nope.
2. the things i will write: any lgbtq+ relationship or character, headcanon’s and au’s, x readers, ships, OC’s, steamy but not explicit (i suck at writing smut but i’m good at building tension). universes: harry potter (including next gen, golden trio, and mauraders eras), marvel, avatar: the last airbender, the legend of korra. if you want something that isn’t on here, dm me! i’m open to branching out.
3. when you make a request, please understand that i am a full time student. it’ll most likely take me a few days to a couple weeks, depending on how many assignments i have at the time. but don’t fret! i will still gladly take your request! i also hold myself and my writing to high standards, so i like to allow myself a little extra time than it might actually take. if i think it will take longer than a week or so, i will let you know, but i’m determined to write them all in a timely manner!
4. give me as many or as few specifics as you want! if you have a fully fledged idea that you want in writing, i’d be happy to do that! if you just have a character in mind, i’ll fill in the rest for you!
5. for my male/non-binary peeps! i automatically write the reader with she/her pronouns, since those are my own, but i would be happy to write under your pronouns (just make sure you include them in the request)
6. if you’ve already made a request but thought of another idea, you are more than welcome to send another! i don’t mind having regulars ;)
that’s about it! thank you so much if you actually read all of that, and you can place requests here!
