Tags: kinda Crackfic, alhaitham is bad at teaching, crying reader, you suck at math
A/n: Hi! This took me way too long to post even tho it was just sitting in my drafts. There are definitely spelling mistakes in here, please let me know how i can improve pls. Love u all <3
Tumblr media
- Um, this homework session may not be as wholesome as you thought. Did your dad have to help you with homework and when you didn’t get it he would get frustrated with you and then you’d start crying. Yeah, that’s how this is going to go.
- Alhaithem is a bright man and I can see him getting math concepts easily. But he’s terrible at explaining them and when someone doesn't get the concepts as easily as him he gets a bit frustrated and goes through 5 stages of grief:
1. Tone Change: He won’t yell at you but his tone will get deeper after the fifth or fourth time you got the question wrong.  
“Sigh, (Y/n) I don’t know why this is so hard for you.” Alhaithem said, sighing “The book even explains how to do it in the book.” 
“But what if I have two variables on both sides?” 
“Then you get rid of it.”
“So like this?” You said as you took the eraser and erased the x out of the question 12+x = 30+3x.
“NO, didn’t your teacher tell you how to get rid of variables?”
“Yeah but she was talking too fast and I got behind.” 
“I don’t understand what’s so hard about it even if the teacher was talking too fast you should be able to catch up easily.”
“...” 
2. Movement: He’ll sigh and lean back in his chair, hands over his eyes, and aggressive pointing or tapping.
Alhaithem had his head in his hands and his elbows on the table. The problem was so simple, how could you not get it? He could do these kinds of problems in under a minute when he was half your age. 
“Alhaithem,” He had been silence for about 10 minutes and all he was doing was leaning back in his chair and groaning. 
“Yes?” 
“I still need help with my homework.” 
“Well until you find what 12 x 8 is then I can’t help you.” Alhaithem said after aggressively tapping the equation. 
“You seem like you know so why don’t you just tell me?” 
“Because you need this experience,”
You decided that you weren’t going to get any kind of help out of him so you tried figuring it out on your own asking if a certain number was correct and each time he said no. 
“I-i Don-n’t know.” After the 12th try you broke down and started crying.
“(Y/n) don’t start crying now,”
3. Talking: Talking about how he doesn't wanna spend all day trying to help you with math and he doesn’t know why you're crying right now.
“...You know if you just listened to your teacher during the lecture you would be having this much trouble with math. When I was you age…” It was about 8:00 pm and Alhaithem was giving a you a lecture on how not hard math is and this is simple. “...and I don’t know why you're crying right now, I’m only trying to help you…” 
4. Kaveh: He asks Kaveh to help you because he needs to get work done.
After he finished with his lecture he said he couldn’t do this and he had work to do. He asked Kaveh to help you with your math problem. While he’s doing his scribe work he’s think of how much trouble Kaveh is going to have trying to explain the problem to you. He thinks that if he can’t help you none can.
5. What do you mean he’s better?: When he comes back out you will be done with your homework and surprised when you told him Kaveh explained it better.
“I don’t understand what you're being such a grump about. They got the concepts easily.” Kaveh said with Alhaithem wondering how Kaveh, a broke architect, could have explained it better than him, who has multiple degrees in math. 
“And you got this done in 10 minutes?” Alhaithem questioned.
“Yeah,”
Unconvinced that Kaveh didn’t just do the problems for you he marched towards the couch where you sat and stood in front of you and crossed his arms. “(Y/n), how do you get rid of the number in 2x?”
“You divide the 2 by the 2 and do that on the other side of the equation.” 
WHAT HOW COULD THIS BE?! HE EXPLAINED THIS TO YOU 34 TIMES (he counted) AND YOU NEVER GOT IT! 
“What do you do first in an equation? Multiple, divide, add, or subtract?” This was a trick question so there was no way you’d get it corr-
“You’re supposed to do the equation in the parentheses first but if there are no parentheses than multiply.” You said without looking up from your book.
Alhaithem was in shock, “I-I have work to do…”
-if you don’t have trouble with math then he won’t even try to help you

You said your AO3 inbox was cleared and that was a mistake cuz now I'm gonna read the summer camp thing and comment on each chapter. Which is to say there will be a single comment or 2 because I'm not good at being consistent. Or at finishing fics.
Anyways this is a threat, there will be comments left to add to the inbox.
PLEASE READ ANY OTHER FIC

please tell me why u hate r*d white and r*yal blue bc it's in my to read list and i wanna know if it's worth it
bro where do i even begin. I will just paste my goodreads review because I feel like it truly encapsulated everything I felt about it when I finished it. Things I have added now are marked in italics.
"As someone who has read a lot of fanfiction, I get it. I totally get why this was so massively popular, because it’s written exactly like those massively popular, enemies to lovers, friends with benefits, 400k+ word fanfics at the top of the AO3 page, right down to one of them being racially ambiguous, the standard gay/bi pairing, and to the crack fanfic dialogue. Which is to say, I was not impressed. I get it though. The book is fun and heavy on the smut and “romance”, which is what the people want. But I’m going to be honest, I expected more. The writing style resembling the fanfiction writing style down to a T was charming at first, but ended up feeling juvenile, and at some points downright cringy and cheesy. I mean, really, no one talks like that. Especially not the First Family of the White House, by god. This works in fanfiction because no one is really taking crackfics seriously, it's just for laughs, but in this book it just came off as distateful and tone deaf (especially regarding the political aspects, omg don't even get me started on that) because, well, it's a published book that is printed and distributed into actual bookstores which people spend their money on... The characters were introduced in the standard fanfiction way (as in you’re just expected to know everything about them already), which, again, works for fanfiction but not so much in published books, and this left them unfortunately flat and shallow. They had no personality or chemistry for that matter, and there was barely any character growth, the story choosing to focus more on the drama, which also was not really that compelling. It was obvious from the get-go that the background drama was merely a plot device (one not necessarily well done) to further the romance, which again is charming in fanfiction (because hey in fanfiction we truly are there for the romance) but I expect more from published books. Not to mention the whole politics deal, oh god, I won’t even touch on that because I’m sure you don’t have to be a genius to know that that is not how politics work… The Big Conflict was… not impressive. The whole thing seemed to hinge on the fact that Henry couldn’t produce heirs with Alex (which yea would make sense) except Henry isn’t the first born and therefore not the direct heir to the throne. Which makes it not any of his problem lol. Furthermore the whole conversation with the Queen seemed so trivial and shallow that I couldn’t take it seriously. It was like the author didn't know what to do as a conflict either and just pulled something out of her ass. It feels like the conflict was blown WAY out of proportion, even though there was potential for important themes to be explored like the bigotry of the royal family and also the First Family for that matter and the implications of a cross-country gay relationship (which is another thing, I know I said I wouldn't touch upon it, but the way the author portrayed American politics or politics in general made it so clear to me that she doesn't actually know what she's talking about and she's just coming off as naive. I wish she had chosen literally any other setting than the one she chose.)
If I wanted a shitty fanfiction I would have just opened my browser and typed in AO3 where I can find this exact storyline and these exact characters for free. P.s. I’m half-convinced the author had just watched Hamilton the Musical before and/or during writing this book."

Finally I can proudly introduce my hidden baby to the world!!!! 🥰🥰
Including but not limited to:
Certified obsessed idiots
Overly dramatic shirts rip-off
Actual communication
Sex as a coping mechanism
S O U N D S
Rio POV and 23 occurrences of the word “fucking” as a consequence (look, I tried not to)
The author’s  failed attempts at disguising her most recognizable mannerisms
Probably the reason why I haven’t been able to write a line these past two months
Read on AO3

Fave gg fanfic writers and why?
Ouuuuh, let me check my AO3 subscriptions, anon!! *cracking knuckles*
So here we go (not in any particular order). Basically my ‘why’s are either angst or crack since that’s what I run on. My apologies to fluff writers, it’s not personal ❤️
elisewrites @elise-jupiterstyle Why: One of the best fanfic writers in this fandom in my humble opinion. Gorgeous writing style, on-point POV characterization, amazing dynamic, dark and poetic settings, and ANGST. Like, a lot.
riosnecktattoo @riosnecktattoo Why: Queen of burlesque!Brio (Beth falling down the piano while trying to look sexy in Heart and soul is a picture that will haunt me for all eternity) but also master of angst and weird obscure kinks that are for some reason my jam (I’m still waiting for this brainplay sequel to beheading, Tay! 🧠🧠)
s_t_c_s @sothischickshe Why: Such a very unique voice and style, bizarre ideas that oddly make sense, delightful humour, hilarious POVs based on the objective fact that Beth and Rio are complete idiots. Also amazing angst when she decides to go down that route.
fireinsideforfun Why: Look. Look. A rational choice is literally the reason why I’m (still) here.
EnsignDisaster @betterhomesandhobbits Why: Absolute crackfic Master! Proper skincare had me howling, and don’t even get me started on the genius that is The goodest boy. One of the funniest writers in this fandom
convolutedConcussion @johnisntevendead Why: It’s just perfection. Humour, characterization, crankiness, lunacy, EVERYTHING, I’m telling you!
MissMaxime @missmaxime Why: One of the most creative writers in this fandom. An abiility to craft extremely cinematic phrasings and hilarious lines that I’m extremely jealous of. Oh, and see also: ANGST. Will I ever stop rambling about Ain’t no sunshine? Probably not.
Niham87 Why: Extremely gorgeous prose, original and funny AUs that I hope will be continued one day, great characterizations and stellar smut.
femalegothic @femalegothic / @bethsuglywigs Why: S M U T. Amazing outsiders POVs. But also a lot of humour and responsible sex pro-tips in the author’s notes.
whiskeyjack @whiskeyjack Why: I’m basically taking an English vocabulary class every time this woman posts something. Metaphors. See also: realistic and physically-rooted depiction of traumas and injuries  u n l i k e  a certain show
septiembre @septiembrre​ Why: Ugh, where do I start??? Amazing characterizations and voices, great writing style, in-character romance, fluttering moments between two stubborn idiots that will make you pull your hair in sobbing frustration and be like “uuuuuuugh! Why are they like this?”
fondful @fondful Why: Dark and poetic writing. Desperate mood. Aaaangst. Or you know... completely random and hilarious bagel AU where people craft penis-shaped embroideries, I mean, you can never know what will come out!

any fanfic recs of dean being a dick to beth and rio stepping in?
Hey anon!
I'm so sorry it took me so long to get back at you...
I’m tempted to say that basically every GG fanfic features  Dean being a dick to Beth, and stepping into Beth’s life is literally Rio’s hobby, so the whole Good Girls tag on AO3 is probably a good entry point. However, here is a little selection.
This post benefited from a huge load of help from the amazing @sdktrs12 aka the people's librarian. Mwah!   😘😘😘
the wedding date by civillove @blainesebastian 28k, complete AU where Beth is a guest at Dean’s second wedding and it goes as bad as you’d think
The Sacred Art of Kissing by brokensatellites @emilykolburn 3k, complete A post 2.03 fic where Rio makes a dramatic entrance as Dean tries to negociate his way back into the house
Forest for the Trees by Anijade @anijade 161k, WIP since 2021 A post S2 finale, post Boland divorce saga where Dean is still his whining annoying self and Rio is Rio
Good Sport by fireinsideforfun 12k, complete Dean is a dick with co-parenting and Rio speaks his mind. Oh, and Beth gets to sleep <3
You Should Probably Leave by peachraindrops @peachraindrops 7k, complete 2.09 canon-divergent where Rio actually kicks Dean’s ass for taking the children instead of the Brio breakup
love (where it wasn't supposed to be) by vuccijl  @lilliloves 5k, complete Rio confronts Dean about cheating in general and Beth in particular. Slight roosters fight vibes which is always enjoyable.
Shared History by brokensatellites @emilykolburn 113k, complete A season 1 re-tell with additional Beth-Rio backstory leading to Rio knowing about Dean’s history of bullshit and his patience has limits
Someone Like You by sunshine83 45k, WIP since 2019 A post 1.05 pancake lie canon-divergent fic where Beth and Rio are horny fools until Rio finds out about the cancer lie
a messy situation by freedomatsea 119k, complete A S2-divergent series where Beth and Rio try to make it work while navigating crime and Dean... deansies
Burn You by HermioneGranger1960  @medievaldarling ​ (OMG this is literally me discovering these are the same person!!! <3) 1k, complete A post 2.01 one-shot where Dean pins his infidelity on Beth and Rio gives him a little talk
Do Not Collect $200 by linzackles @mrslackles 242k, complete Rio calls Dean out on his actions (and Beth clearly doesn’t appreciate the ingerence)
Losing game by Niham87 174k, WIP since 2020 Dean is literally the worst, so... (mind the tags, lots of cw)
Filing her nails while they’re dragging the lake by s_t_c_s @sothischickshe 26k, WIP since 2021 Beth pays Rio to provide evidence of Dean’s cheating so she can file for divorce, so technically that would fit the definition
Say your prayers, you’ll need every single one by blameitonmyjuice 5k, WIP since 2019 Established Brio, Dean loses it and kidnaps Beth
blanket me by softbrio @softbrio 2k, complete Dean’s physically abusive to Beth and Rio is shockingly not a fan of it
Ultimately, I feel weird putting it on this post, but there’s also some dick!Dean bashing here:
A part of it brought to you by yours truly 151k, complete

💌 your favorite line (or lines) from a fic you've written
Harper, no, we said no fave questions, this is too hard!!!! It actually took me longer to pick a line than to hanwrite it, lol!
Anyhoo, I love literally every line in this fic, but I have a soft spot for this particular section (please ignore how shitty my handwriting is, I have cramps in my hand now)

Tutorial on how to install the floating commenting box on AO3
So for those of us who love live-commenting fics, there exists an amazing script tool created by @ravenel​ and described on this post. Basically the commenting box is floating as you scroll down the text so you can quote/write as you read without incessantly going and returning to/from a text editor.
I made this tutorial on how to install it on either Chrome or Firefox for @missmaxime​ but then I figured I might as well share it here so anyone else who’s interested could use it.
If you’re using another browser than Chrome or Firefox but know how to add extensions on it, then you can still follow part 2 of this tutorial since Tampermonkey is available for other browsers as well.
Step 1: Install Tampermonkey web extension on your browser
(You can skip this part if you’re used to install browser extensions)
On Chrome: Type chrome://extensions in the address bar. It normally shows your installed extensions.
Click on the menu button in the top left corner of this page. At the bottom there's an button linking to the Chrome Web Store. Click it.
In the web store search bar, type “tampermonkey” and select the first result.
You should land on a page looking like this:
Tumblr media
Click on "add to chrome" and follow the installation procedure (you'll have to grant a few permissions for the process to fully complete).
On Firefox: Type about:addons in the address bar. You land on a page listing your already installed addons (if you have any).
In the search bar at the top, type "tampermonkey" and enter. It should bring you to another page looking more or less like this:

↬ Chisaki Kai
Tumblr media
➳ Okay, okay so like, he’s not the type to snoop around your privacy or something
➳ But he was just looking for you and since he’s a busy man, he’s not going to waste his time, searching the whole headquarters for you
➳ So, he called your phone number (like any normal person would)
➳ He heard it coming from one of the meeting rooms and he went there just to see no one
➳ But he saw your phone on the table
➳ You probably left it there or something
➳ He was about to end the call when he saw his contact name on your phone
➳ “Germaphobic hottie”
➳ Then suddenly boom!
➳ You rushed into the room and were like, 
➳ “Ah, I accidentally left my phone here...”
➳ You saw Kai holding your phone and said,
➳ “Oh! Chisaki-san! That’s my phone. I accidentally left that here, sorry.”
➳ You were confused as to why he was just, frozen in his place??
➳ After a moment, he gave you your phone and said,
➳ “That’s quite a name you put for my contact number.”
➳ This time, YOU’RE the one who was frozen in your place.
➳ *insert surprised pikachu face*
➳ “I-- Excuse me, what????”
➳ You checked your phone and sure enough, his contact name showed up in your notification for missed calls.
➳ You were so sure you’re gonna pass out any moment at that time
➳ “Well, I suppose it won’t hurt to change yours on mine as well.”
➳ Your brain literally said head empty and you weren’t even listening to what Kai had said until he showed his phone screen in front of you
➳ You read what was the name on your contact and it was,
➳ “Troublesome Beauty”
➳ You literally agdhxsjldmsjcj right there and Kai just casually put back his phone in his pocket
➳ He was about to leave you alone in the meeting room when oops, he forgot he had something to say to you 
➳ Actually I did too---
➳ “By the way, Y/N, I need you to finish up your report and send it to me ASAP.”
➳ Jokes on you for thinking he was gonna say something romantic or even ask you out
➳ “Oh, and one more thing,”
➳ He turned to you with his hand on the meeting room door, his sharp gaze sent your heart fluttering.
➳ “I’d like for you to join me for dinner. At 6 pm, sharp. Don’t even dare to come even a minute later.”
➳ With that warning, he left you alone in that room
➳ Did you just scored yourself a date with your crush who is also your boss?
➳ Maybe…. Who knows…
➳ But you do know that you’re so freaking giddy about this, dinner (which could possibly be a date) with Kai
↬ Tamaki Amajiki
Tumblr media
➳ This boy saw it on accident while he was behind you
➳ You, for some reason, were scrolling through your messages with Tamaki (cause they’re so freaking cute and looking at them gave you serotonin boost DUH)
➳ Tamaki originally only planned to greet you from behind but seeing you so caught up in looking at your phone, his curiosity got the better of him and he peeked behind to see what were you looking at
➳ And hoooo boi
➳ You looking at your text messages with Tamaki isn’t that weird by itself but what really grabbed his attention was his contact name on your phone
➳ “Soon-to-propose Sunshine 💖”
➳ He was shocked to say the least, and he just stood there and stared at that name 
➳ Finally you noticed a shadow looming behind you so you turned back only to see Tamaki staring at your phone
➳ “T- TAMAKI! DIDN’T NOTICE YOU THERE! AHAHAHA!”
➳ You could feel your whole face heating up and you quickly hide your phone away
➳ “HE DIDN’T SEE THAT JUST NOW, RIGHT?? THERE’S NO WAY HE DID. THAT’S CRAZY OMG PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE”
➳ “Uhm, Y/N….”
➳ “AHAHA!! WOULD YOU LOOK AT THE TIME?! GOSH, I’M LATE TO MY PART TIME JOB! AHAHA!”
➳ "But Y/N, you said today's your day-off---"
➳ "D-diiiiiid I say that?? Well, it's a...an emergency! Yes! An emergency cause…..my friend….Freddy! You know, our ol pal Freddy ahaha!! He lost his eyeballs somewhere! I mean-- his glasses! Yes, his glasses! He lost it and can't come to work! So I gotta cover the shift for him!"
➳ Tamaki went silent at that, and he looked down at the floor. You felt bad for lying to him, but god, were you relieved to see him believing that made up excuse
➳ You just...weren't ready to tell him about your crush on him now
➳ You quickly packed your thing, and silently thanked your quick thinking. At this point, your face was already heating up due to the embarrassment and panic
➳ You were about to go when Tamaki called out to you
➳ He then showed his phone to you, and you could feel your heart stopped beating for a moment
➳ It was an Instagram story of Freddy (as seen on his nametag) during his lunch break at your part time job
➳ Booom! There goes your cover. You silently groaned in defeat and slumped back into your chair, your arms covering your reddening face
➳ "I'm…..sorry I lied, Tamaki…. I don't even actually know I had a coworker named Freddy."
➳ Tamaki was silent for a long time before he put a comforting hand on your shoulders
➳ “Can you….tell me —honestly— why did you put my contact name as that? Is it because...”
➳ He stopped mid-sentence and played with his fingers with his eyes still glued towards the floor
➳ You already knew what he wanted to say, so you just nodded curtly at him
➳ “Yes, I uhm….I like you, Tamaki, for quite some time now...”
➳ Yes, the confession was awkward, and you wanted to die at most but what caught you off guard was Tamaki's reaction
➳ Boy, does he look happy
➳ “R-really?? Me too! I like you too, Y/N. I’m really happy you feel the same.”
➳ omg can we all just agree he’s the most precious being
➳ Your face was red and you could feel your lips slowly forming into a smile.
➳ “I was worried for nothing then...”

hiii :] do u have any good spn fic recs?? i trust ur taste <3
HIIIII ANON first of ty for coming to me ily. second i dont know what you want exactly as spn fic is a very broad category but im just going to give you some that ive read and very much enjoyed :3
(fics will be under the read more bc this is kinda long)
a turn of the earth by microcomets: destiel, dean pov, 95k, slowburn. cas gets sent back in time and meets 22 year old dean. i am very bad with descriptions but this one is definitely worth reading, its the only long fic ive been able to read multiple times. (mature content warning towards the end)
the tunnel of love by xylodemon: destiel, dean pov, 21k. dean and cas have to kiss for a hunt. highly enjoyable, great writing, one of my favorites. (also mature content warning towards the end)
après by imogenbynight: destiel, cas pov, 24k. cas loses his grace and lands in paris, dean flies out to get him, and they have a sort of cute romantic holiday there. this one is really sweet!! also has a follow up, billet doux. (again, mature content warning towards the end)
the cost of a thing by quiettewandering: destiel, dean pov, 74k, fake relationship, slow burn. dean and cas are hunting something thats killing married couples and they have to pretend to be married in order to catch it.
adjust to the light by achillese: midam, 69k, au. adam is the only survivor of an uncaught serial killer. warning this one is kind of dark (not that much explicit violence but it does involve serial killers and the aftermath of attempted murder so. if that bothers you than tread carefully)
the world begins anew by clasch: destiel, dean pov, 1.2k, fluffy, christmas celebration. this one is really adorable and made me almost cry.

FLUX YOU MAD LAD YOU ACTUALLY DID IT!!! THE MARRIAGE CRACKFIC HYPE IS REAL AND THE REALITY DOES NOT DISAPPOINT!! i rly wanted 2 send u an ask as soon as I got the ao3 email but i held myself 2gether and actually read the current content like a Normal Person so!! This’ll be disjointed and incomprehensible but we’re both up at midnight right now so </3
Okay. Right. First of all: I love how comfortable ur writing is!! Like I know I’ve commented on it before but Techno n Quackity are just Very Comfortable with one another and there’s no stilted sort of ‘oh but it’s platonic’ clarification needed! They just genuinely feel safe in one anothers presence and that is wonderful <333
Also,, the description and use of the ‘mutually unrequited’ tag is ENDLESSLY amusing 2 me like yes,,, that’s so them,,, how did I not connect the dots before. Ur literally a genius
I love Mr. Quacks :]] his indignant protectiveness of Quackity that Big Q barely seems to notice? Him quickly registering Techno as a safe person bc of Quackity’s concern for him? Wilbur having issues with A Literal Chicken, Somehow? Mr. Quacks is my new favourite character in the Dream SMP sorry kings that really is how the cookie crumbles
I’m very satisfied by the fact that u let Quackity talk a little bit abt his issues with Schlatt!! And the way you write dialogue is so natural?? Like, Quackity doesn’t rly convey his specific issue super well bc he’s never been great at the whole feelings deal, but it’s super clear he’s trying to get across the emotional manipulation (even if Q doesn’t rly recognize it like that) and Schlatt’s obvious abuse of power over Quackity as his president AND husband. Very proud of him for his efforts :,] and Techno’s automatic response being to just go murder the man? Like YES KING LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO
I don’t know how you manage to do it but you make me more invested in their friendship w/ each thing you write :,]] Quackity’s very easygoing demeanour and active expression of affection through physical gestures and pet names pairs v well with Techno’s more stoic personality that gives way to casual shows of affection and fierce protectiveness of the people he cares about?? Your characterization is literally just a dopamine factory I will never get over how good you are at dynamics aasndmdkfkd
Also I love how ur including more SBI dynamics!! Your Wilbur is friendly but still like. Vaguely Unhinged and I appreciate that you didn’t completely get rid of his Issues(tm) in favour of the family dynamic. You woke up 2day and gave us both! As a treat. And I really love how you write Tommy as a whole :] he’s a bit of a brat and the teenage vibes are ever so present but you do kind of want to give him a hug anyways. I love and care them,,,,
You’ve sparked my thoughts abt your various quacknoblade AUs again!! And also dormant thoughts abt the TMA quacknobros AU I thought briefly abt where Techno was Jon n Quackity was Martin,,,,, honestly ur ability to create brainrot is insane ily king
- Saturn 🪐
OH SATURN I GENUINELY BLEW KISSES AT MY PHONE WHEN I REALIZED THIS WAS FROM YOU. you have such a distinct way of sending asks that I knew it was you right away actually it's really funny amksmdmdkdkd ilysm
Also WOW CALLED OUT YEAH ITS MIDNIGHT YEAH WE'RE FEELING INCOHERENT ❤️
ALSO THANK YOU;;; I channel my aromantic energy into my fics by just not registering things as romantic in the slightest ❤️ I am unstoppable ❤️
Ok wait it's kinda funny bc I feel like at a time I was like "gotta make sure everyone knows this is platonic" but now I've reached this point where I'm just "if you don't get it that's on you" KSKSKSKSKDKKDF
YES THE MUTUALLY UNREQUITED TAG;;; I saw a post abt it on Tumblr, I think I tagged it as #marriage crackfic bc that's literally what it is listen;;; it fits so fucking well oh my God
YEAH YEAH MR QUACKS IS SO IMPORTANT TO ME. I was a bit stuck on writing for a while and then iwnas like "wait what if quackity befriends that chicken from the creepcident" and now we're here skskmdmdmdmfk
ALSO YEAH WILBUR AND MR QUACKS S RELATIONSHIP IS V IMPORTANT TO ME
I'm really really glad you like the dialogue abt schlatt. Tbh I think that's like, one of the oldest parts of the fic. I've been writing it on and off for a while now and that was one of the first things I wrote, and I still absolutely adore how it came out. Idk! That bit of dialogue just came out fucking Perfectly for me and I'm still very :]]]]!!!! About it and I'm delighted you like it too!!!!
ALSO YES TECHNO MURDER POG <3
EVERYTIME YOU COMPLIMENT MY DYNAMICS I WEEP;;; I'm just very into characters who are Very Different getting along super well ok. im super duper in love with big stoic and chaotic small and that dynamic lives in my head rent free so you KNOW I gotta write about it as much as possible
YEAAAH THAT BIT WITH THE SBI BOYS WAS A JOY TO WRITE I REALLY REALLY LIKE IT A LOT;;; also yes! Wilbur gets to be unhinged <3 as a treat! AND YES FERAL TOMMY IS SO GOOD. HE IS A TEENAGER AND HE IS READY TO THROW HANDS CONSTANTLY. I imagine rough housing is a very popular way to show affection in the sbi household and tbh I'm a bit feral as well. projecting on to tommy by making him wrestle with techno. KAKAKKSKDKDKF
Ilysm your asks are always such a treat to read I'm very :>>> rn!!!
Also idk anything about TMA but I am looking intently!!! Share your infinite wisdom!!!

this was supposed to be an incorrect quote but it spiraled out of control
note: im american idk if yall brits have cuties (kidding im sure ur all cuties ok im sorry i couldnt resist) but i really had to alright pls be-ryllium ar-gon with me yes im sorry we are revisiting chem lads dont worry i will provide you translations/i will make it obvious also theres switching povs & im telling you ahead of time: the puns are very, very bad 
also i wrote this at like late 5am un-beta-ed so please forgive me for any mistakes, i have 0.5 braincells left and i used up 0.279 for academic papers
kind of a crackfic btw 
ok without further ado bc i ramble too much, other notes at the end: 
*on Valentine’s Day*
John woke up to the sound of clinking and the faint sound of rustling of papers, the other side of the bed empty and cold. Ah, probably on that experiment again with those oranges he said were also a good pet name for me. What was it again? Right, cuties. A small smile appeared on John’s unshaven face. His hubby was too endearing for his own good sometimes. 
In the kitchen, Sherlock paced back and forth, eyeing his failed experiment with disdain. Which he was totally worrying more about rather than whether his plan would work. Would John like these? Maybe he should have just gone with George’s advice and went to get some takeout Angelo’s like they often did during quarantine, but Sherlock wanted to make this special. He nervously adjusted his shirt collar, looking down to check that he was indeed wearing the purple shirt John loved so much. Apparently it was called the purple shirt of sex or something? The detective honestly had no idea how or why but that wasn’t important, what was important was John. John. He still couldn’t believe the brilliant, patient, and gorgeous army-doctor was....his husband. After the drunk night they had that one day, things got a bit heated and...well, you could say they definitely had a good time and cleared up their feelings for each other, much to Donovan’s chagrin who lost Scotland Yard’s bet by just a week. Mrs. Hudson was the winner, obviously. 
Thank god for Mrs. Hudson’s and Gavin; he didn’t know what he would do without both of them giving him advice, though the DI wasn’t always pleased to be summoned in the middle of a case to help Sherlock out. 
Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, Sherlock scanned his surroundings to make sure everything was in place. Ah, he could now hear John about to step into the aisle, right on time. Quickly, Sherlock went back to pretending he was working on his experiment. 
Just a few moments later, John padded into the kitchen, clean shaven, and as expected, looked at Sherlock pointedly. Of course, the detective was used to this and promptly ignored it, waiting for John to say something. 
“Sherlock,” John said, tilting his head to the side a bit, “What is going on here? Why are there little sticky notes all over the place?” 
Sherlock simply shrugged. “Why don’t you go take a look for yourself, John? I’m sure you would be able to find out that way.” 
Sighing, John went back into the living room and perused the various bright colored sticky notes. Sherlock’s scratchy handwriting was on all of them, along with small drawings on some. Stepping closer, John took the first one off the wall above the couch and read the note out loud: 
“Jawn, you’re small and angy, just like the bunch of Copper (Cu) Tellurium (Te) Iodine (I) Einstieinium (Es) we got the other day. Will you be my clemenvalentine?” Belatedly, John noticed a small orange drawn next to it, with a small >:[ face. Sherlock still wasn’t going to let him ever live it down, huh? 
Shaking his head with the faintest hint of a smile crossing John’s expression, he moved on to the next one. 
“John, the first time we met and dined at Angelo’s, I said girlfriends weren’t really my area. What I really wanted to say was that I was Gallium (Ga) Yttrium (Y), John. Obviously, I am married to my work and love of my life now, but would you still be my Valentine again, for the 11th time?” This one was written in rainbow ink, probably one of those pens Rosie got for Sherlock, insisting that he would have some use for them someday. Which he did, evidently.
As John picked up more and more notes strewn around the room, and read more and more puns, some of his favorites being, “Forget Hydrogen–you’re my number one element” and “Why don’t we go back to the bedroom and form a covalent bond ;) Or we could do it on the table, periodically” he didn’t know whether he should have laughed or cried. Maybe both. Some were so bad they were hilarious but the fact that they were that bad just made it more funny and endearing. Oh Sherlock, where would I bee without you? who would I be without you?
Oh god, John realized with horror. Sherlock’s terrible puns were rubbing off him and invading his thoughts. Typical of him, that bloody cute charismatic arse.  
Finally, John reached the last one. 
“John, I know I’m not very good with expressing my affection for you, but I want you to know, especially today, that Iodine (I) Lutetium (Lu) Vanadium (V) Uranium (U). You are my best friend, my lover, my husband, and my lifelong partner. You’ll always be my doctor and blogger at heart.” On the side, a small smiley face was drawn. 
The entire time, John knew Sherlock’s eyes were on him, even though he pretended to be busy with his experiment. The doctor knew those telltale signs: tense shoulders coupled with a nervous biting of his lip. Watching closely, trying to gauge his reaction after reading all of them.  
“Sherlock, were you trying to test my chemistry knowledge again? You know it’s been awhile since I’ve studied all this, right?” 
Of course, Sherlock knew this. Sherlock always knew but was somehow still an oblivious idiot. My oblivious idiot, John thought affectionately. 
“Well yes but I-” a beat. Sherlock took a deep breath. “Well, it’s always you making plans for Valentine’s, and I thought, maybe I should take charge this time, with something other than Angelo’s–don’t worry, I’ve already ordered takeout for dinner, I know you love their food, John, so I still did it. But I wanted to do more for you this time. Mrs. Hudson and Rosie agreed it would help me express myself better, so I tried it out. Um-” Sherlock stopped mid sentence as John walked up to him, and put a finger over those pouty lips. 
“Sherlock, you amazing, adorable, gorgeous man, you’re so cute, you know that? And I did in fact notice your shirt–we will be making use of that later, obviously.” The detective gulped visibly. “But for the record, I want you to know that I know how much you love me, and you know how much I love you, so don’t ever feel bad about having trouble expressing it verbally; I can always tell through the small thoughtful gestures you do for me and the looks you throw my way when you think I can’t see. What you did for me today was very sweet, and it made my day–I will always cherish this memory on this Valentine’s, but I can assure you my love for you will never change no matter what, whether or not you do gestures like this for me. My love is of the same magnitude as yours to mine, and it never stops growing everyday”
Sherlock beamed, that charming crooked grin of his slowly spreading across his face, and John pulled him down for a kiss, both laughing against each other’s lips lightly as their mouths clumsily crashed together. 
“I love you.”
“I love you, too.”

Monday, Wednesday, Friday, fortnight, March, April, October, ancient, and minutes
hello lovely! sorry for responding so late :,) I had a wild night of sleep but I’m awake now
monday: do you struggle with the ‘boring’ parts of writing?
Not exactly. I love writing mundane things and adding lots of descriptions to the setting. I just always worry that I’m going to turn into one of those writers who spend 5 pages describing the setting for one sentence of dialogue. But if I need to connect two plot points and don’t know how to do it, then I struggle.
wednesday: name a fic which you have posted which you think is underrated?
This took,,,way too long to figure out. The fics I’m most proud of have about 50-60 notes which makes me feel satisfied enough as a small blog. However, there are like one or two I expected a couple more notes just because I thought it was better than some of my other works. But I’m not gonna name them because I don’t feel the need to :)
friday: most self-indulgent fic you have ever posted?
Ghost of You. It was a songfic that is angsty and from the guys’ point of view. Totally self-indulgent and most of the people that I know didn’t even read it but it got a surprising amount of notes.
fortnight: what wip do you plan on posting next, if at all?
Most likely one from the ask game. I’ve been motivated to write this one I have for Jeonghan so hopefully, I’ll have that out soon.
march: do you listen to music whilst writing?
YES. There are very few moments in my life where I am not listening to music. I also tend to pick a playlist that reflects the mood I am going for for the fic. I have a ton of playlists that reflect a different range of emotions so they help a lot.
april: have you ever written and/or posted a crackfic?
Yes. However, I don’t actually think it’s that crackfic and I’ve come to hate it over time. But it’s called Perfect U, and is the crack version of my other fic Support Squad. It also doesn’t help that not that many people understand the lyrics I reference since they’re in Korean. I do want to eventually write a much better crackfic in the future.
october: name the darkest or angstiest fic you have written and/or posted?
Ghost of You (again). I wrote it when I was going through it with sad emotion and really needed to write but couldn’t write any poetry. So I was listening to the song it was inspired by and decided to write it to feel better. 
ancient: the first fic you ever posted online?
Oh goodness. I can’t even find it anymore (because I’m pretty sure I deleted it). But it was related to Adventure Time and it was like 3k words. Also, it wasn’t on Tumblr.
minutes: how long does it normally take you to complete a fic?
It will either take me a day or 3 months. I really don’t appear to have an in-between for writing and I hate it. I wish I could write more often than what I do.

Scales, Fins, and other Fishy Daydreams
Archive Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/18215168/chapters/43151156
Chapter 3/10 of It’s A Handheld Disaster
Word Count: 1553
Chapter Summary: Baz takes Simon's shitpost text a step further, and the outcome ends up spreading a few rumors.
SIMON
bi-sammy: sammy would still fuck huxley if he looked like the fish from shape of water
I grin smugly at my screen, sitting in a dark room with nothing shining but my mobile. The shutters stay shut, and the light from the bottom of the doorway barely filters into the room. It’s just me, this scratchy blanket, and Baz, somewhere else in England on another screen. I absolutely adore that.
gaystrell: why would you say something so controversial yet so brave.jpg
Sometimes, I catch myself smiling. Other times, I elect to ignore how real it feels. It’s weird, given that it feels like I’m just chatting with someone who I see everyday. The casualness of this reminds me of texting Penny in the afternoon on a Thursday.
Except, given the current time, it could be interpreted as more intimate than that of a friend’s text.
8am on a Saturday is usually a time reserved for comfort. For staying warm with someone you care about. Instead, I’m just messaging Baz.
bi-sammy: because im right
bi-sammy: hear me out here ive got a brilliant idea
gaystrell: whoever taught you the definition of a brilliant idea was clearly misleading you
bi-sammy: dont be an arse until youve heard it
bi-sammy: wanker
gaystrell: you’re truly proving your point
bi-sammy: ANYWAY
bi-sammy: shape of water au
bi-sammy: thats all
gaystrell: i’m appalled.
gaystrell: hold on.
I don’t think much of it. Occasionally, he disappears for an hour to two. I don’t bother asking, assuming it’s none of my business, but I do tend to worry a bit. I hope he’s alright.
After clicking off my phone, my head settles against my pillow as my eyes fall shut.
There’s something about this. There’s something about him. It’s a bit hard to pinpoint what it is, but the overwhelming feeling of comfort I have in the notifications I get from him just answering my bullshit is incredibly welcomed. He’s semisweet. I don’t know why I didn’t see it earlier, but he’s a fantastically bitter person.
My head slowly turns over, eyes opening and straining in the darkness.
I hate my empty room.
I hate the absence of comfort--I hate the plainness of these walls.
I want to say I hate my foster dad, but I also feel like I’m not allowed to say that. Not because the system will take me again and throw me back (even though I could have left a year back, if I was still in it). Instead, I feel like I shouldn’t hate him. Theoretically, I should be thankful for what I have. I’m not in a boy’s home, and I haven’t been since I was 11, but the remnants remain. The fights don’t go away, and neither do the weeks of starvation.
Still, I sort of despise living here under Davy.
That’s what he makes me call him. His name. His nickname. Not dad; of course not dad. He’s had me in his care for roughly six years, but he’s still Davy to me.
Shitty fucking Davy, with his strict curfews and practically using me as a housemaid because he’s too cheap to care for himself.
Shitty fucking Davy, not letting me add anything to my room because the day I turn 18, I’m out of here until his next kid (and cheque, apparently) come in. Told me I’d wreck the walls and ruin his furniture if I did put anything on it, too.
So that’s what I’ve got. Blank walls, blank furniture, blank everything. It’s like a jail cell for a bedroom, and everything I’ve got to show for myself is in a backpack and two dresser drawers/
But, at least, I own my mobile.
Every summer job, mixed with odds and ends shit and whatever I can do for my bill. It’s all mine, and Davy can’t fucking touch it.
Maybe that’s why, when I feel it buzz against my chest, it makes me feel more alive. It’s a reminder of all that work just to be able to talk to someone freely.
Arguably, the best feeling in the goddamn world.
I grab it and flip it over. It’s just an email about uni.
Fuck.
I end up scrolling through tumblr for a little while, doing nothing but liking and reblogging a thing here or there. It takes a little while before a little drop down falls from the top of my screen.
gaystrell: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r7Wkwj7MSFk0--DgquHGhYVBbqneEYq0J01t0uMRmxA/edit?usp=sharing
gaystrell: feel the need to apologize before you click the link, but then again, you asked for this hell
When I click on it, it pulls up a doc titled just “crackfic”, and I’m floored with the first sentence alone.
“Fuck my fish ass harder, daddy.”
My hand flies up, covering my mouth as I practically wheeze as quietly as possible. A few paragraphs in and I’m nearly crying into my palm, muffling my laughter as I read through pages upon pages of the most ridiculous fic I’ve ever laid my eyes upon.
I check the word count out of pure curiosity, and it somehow makes me laugh harder.
bi-sammy: holy fucking shit
bi-sammy: i swear to god if you don’t post that i will
gaystrell: already in the process of making the archive post
gaystrell: i seriously believe you underestimate my sincere ability to be the biggest dick on the street
bi-sammy: i dont know whether or not u meant that as ur literal dick or the big dick energy in making that a post but id probably agree with you in both
bi-sammy: tag me in the post pls i want to be the first to reblog it
gaystrell: you’re a ridiculous, sad, little man
gaystrell: of course i’ll tag you
Within minutes, it’s uploaded with the absolute worst slew of Archive tags attached to it, and as soon as he tags me in his post, I tap the notification.
Scales, Fins, and other Fishy Daydreams
Word Count: 3,192
Summary: Fish!Huxley and Sam get it on Shape of Water style
@bi-sammy this is your fault (you're welcome)
I immediately slam like and pull up reblog, rapidly typing out my response before posting.
absolute madman. cant believe youve done this. i trust you with my entire life.
As usual, he's quick to reblog back.
anything for the absolute pain in my life x
Smiling shamelessly, I ride on the moment's high as our conversation stays out in the world. I quite enjoy this version of his softness. The public, taunting replies to mine. In all this time of following him, I can't really recall him ever being this friendly with anyone but me.
Makes me feel special. Maybe too much so.
BAZ
The jarring shock of the seemingly endless notifications rattles me momentarily speechless.
It isn't even 15 minutes after I'd replied to Snow and there's already a few people reblogging it with comments about him and I. A quick “i ship y'all’ to “powermove of the century”. Each make me flush deeper as the replies flood in.
If I were to be practical, I'm aware that I shouldn't be so flustered over the concept of us being a couple. It's most likely my overactive, sad, lonely imagination, but the idea of being loved just makes me blush. Especially since it's someone who doesn't seem to absolutely loathe me.
gaystrell: are you reading these?
bi-sammy: the what?
bi-sammy: i have. nothing to read. i cant read.
gaystrell: use your two remaining brain cells look at the notes for the crackfic
bi-sammy: holy shit
bi-sammy: im cackling
A notification pops up, making me snort this time. I pull up the post and send it off to him without a second thought.
gaystrell: sent a post
gaystrell: “sounds like something huxley would do for sam”
bi-sammy: stop im gonna piss myself shits too fucking funny
I pull it back up, scrolling down to reblog and adding a quick reply that, in all honesty, I should have thought out more. Secretly, part of me is glad that I sent it.
huxley wishes he was this smooth ;)
Within seconds, replies flood in from everywhere. From jokes about Snow and I possibly dating to the concept of Huxley writing (purposefully) shitty homoerotica about himself as a fishman. I quite like the conversation about the latter, while the former makes my chest knot in ways inexplicable.
Going through the notes makes me smile, even if it's mildly embarrassing. The amount of times I've seen the eyes emoji used is definitely excessive, but still somewhat welcomed.
Even my archive has a few comments already, although more based around the fic itself. More ironically, though, is the one person who probably took it seriously and just commented, “Nice fic!” I love the abundance of shameless appreciation for obscure fanfiction in the depths of this community.
Snow's messages roll down my mobile screen as I'm checking the comments, continuously replacing the previous message for the top slot.
bi-sammy: mate
bi-sammy: i love you
bi-sammy: also every time you reblog something of mine i get like 5 followers
bi-sammy: if you mention me i get 10
bi-sammy: youre???????????? a god????????
bi-sammy: can i marry you????????????
I slowly close my laptop, eyes on my phone with an absolutely gleeful grin.
gaystrell: when and where?

Fan Fiction Ask Game
@suchatinyinfinity tagged me some time ago, and since I really couldn’t decide which ones to answer to, I took all of them! Yes, I really did. Worry about me... This is going to be a long post, so I’m putting everything under the cut and tagging some of my fellow writers at the bottom. I also am going to answer with all of my fics and not only one of them, that way you can get more perspective. 
Thank you for reading!
A: How did you come up with the title to [insert fic]?
I’m not going to answer about how I named one fic, I’m telling how I usually name my fics. Most of them get their titles if I listen to a song and it has a nice name or a line, sometimes I read quotes or just think of a word and taste it for long enough to decide could it be the title. Sometimes I read the piece before naming it and decide a line it has as a title; this can be seen in most of my drabbles. The title can be found. With my current series Aura, Of New Beginnings, You, Dark Passion Play and I’ll Make a Man Out of You; they either got their titles from the names of the characters, aspects of the story or songs. 
B: Any of your stories inspired by personal experience?
Actually, You. Not all of it, but most of the first chapter is. I took some artistic freedoms to describe some things but it indeed is inspired by my very shitty day during last December. Some of my friends know about this, it was horrible. But the young man at the stoplights (who looked really different from Ben but still) still inspires me very much.
C: What member do you identify with most?
Member... This question confuses me, all in all. I identify with a lot of things and can really tell you as soon as someone tells me what kind of a member this question is searching for haha. 
D: Is there a song or a playlist to associate with [insert fic]?
I don’t really do playlist for my stories, I listen to whatever I feel like. Sometimes I want to listen to one specific song during one scene. It really depends. 
E: If you wrote a sequel to [insert fic], what would it be about?
I’m bad at sequels. And most of my fics are not even ready, aka they’re series that will go on and on. But! One fic that possibly could have a sequel one day is Irresistible. It’s one of my favorite pieces of my own fics and it would be fun to see did the reader really catch him or not ;)
F: Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.
“The knife?”
“That was Reep…”
“The apples?”
“No, I didn’t touch your apples…”
“Someone ate them while I was picking up those flowers I gave you.”
Caspian shook his head, still humming his laughs.
“Apples don’t walk away, Caspian!”
He showed you his hands as if he was surrendering. “Maybe not, but it wasn’t me.”
You pouted. “If you have to say it, you’re not telling the truth.”
“Maybe you didn’t have any apples with you on that day? I don’t remember seeing any.”
“Yeah, because you ate all of them. I was away for ten minutes!”
“Okay, I just might have eaten one…”
King of Thieves, Caspian/Reader
I think this is really sweet. I had so much fun writing this and it can really be seen, I think. I’ve always struggled with real-like dialogue, as I’ve told countless times before, but I think that with this drabble, it became quite real after all.
G: Do you write your story from start to finish, or do you write the scenes out of order?
It depends, really. I usually write from start to finish but if I suddenly get a scene in my head, I write it down. It’s easier for me to write from start to finish, that way I can stay on track and don’t lose the balance of what I’m doing. 
H: How would you describe your style?
Someone once said I have noticeable style, something that is... part of me. I guess I like descriptions? I use a lot of adjectives and different kind of sentences; long and short, both to describe and rhythm the story a little. I also like beautiful words very much haha. My style may be a bit dreamy and I like to go slowly more than quickly. Sometimes I speed things up a little, only to tell the more meaningful parts but all in all, I think I describe more than use dialogue. 
I: Do you have a guilty pleasure in fic (reading or writing)?
Haha! I truly do have! Especially in writing. I love to use quotes and song lyrics in my stories as dialogues, parts of them. It’s really funny for some reason. When I read, I don’t think do I actually have a guilty pleasure. Hmm... I don’t think I have?
J: Write or describe an alternative ending to [insert fic].
Goodness! Well, ok, let’s take Irresistible again...
Billy either left without leaving a single note or... Maybe he didn’t leave at all? I almost wrote that he stayed but... Then I thought of the note and I let that come to the story. Well, we can always play ;)
K: What’s the angstiest idea you’ve ever come up with?
Something that had to do with Billy having to kill the reader either because the death was inevitable or because he had been told to. I’ve tried to think of this but as I have felt a bit bad myself, writing angst hasn’t really been on the top of my mind right now. Maybe one day?
L: How many times do you usually revise your fic/chapter before posting?
Sometimes more and sometimes less. I often read it twice; once right after reading and then I let it be for a moment, I got to eat or take a shower or play with my cat for a while and then come back to read it. You kind of become blind to your own text; I still have typos, I’m not saying that but it’s easier to see everything that needs to be corrected or revised before posting. Once or twice, usually.
M: Got any premises on the back burner that you’d care to share?
Not more than I will never probably get it done because I keep getting stuck haha!
N: Is there a fic you wish someone else would write (or finish) for you?
Not at the moment. Even though, I always love to see people writing something I’ve talked about with them.
O: How do you begin a story–with the plot, or the characters?
The plot, usually. The characters come with it. While writing fanfiction, I kind of have some characters “ready to use”. The reader creates itself. I try to describe them as little as I can, so everyone can relate to them, which is why I go with the plot and not with the characters. But with something like Aura I try to get the plot with the character or the other way around. 
P: Are you what George R. R. Martin would call an “architect” or a “gardener”? (How much do you plan in advance, versus letting the story unfold as you go?)
I’m more like “one rose is my whole garden” type of person. I make some plans and write down some important plot points but for me, planning the whole thing from chapter to chapter and all the way to the ending kind of means it’s written already. Then I don’t even write it. So, I try not to let my ideas die with something like this but every time I get some important plot points in mind, I write them down because I’d forget them otherwise.
Q: How do you feel about collaborations?
I have nothing against them. Collabs are just fine. Although, they can get a bit hard, can’t they? You need to have very profound talks about what you want to write and what should happen and all. It can get stressful. But it would also be very interesting thing to write! I’ve actually talked about one of these with one person once. 
R: Are there any writers (fanfic or otherwise) you consider an influence?
Sure. And I think that to be a writer, you have to have influences. You know what I mean? To see different ways to do some things and how the person X does this thing - but the person Y does it differently, so I’ll do it like this. You know what I mean? 
The people I’m going to tag (also the one that tagged me) all have some kind of influence on me, in good. 
My favorite writers, I’ve tried to learn something from them. Stephen King, Marcus Zusak, Joël Dicker, Tolkien, Rowling, Lewis, Wynne-Jones, all of them. 
S: Any fandom tropes you can’t resist?
I’m not good at this trope thing anyway, I think. I don’t even think about them too much. But, you know, I just opened a list and I definitely can say that there are some I reallyreallyreally like hahah!
Shapeshifting is always nice, all kinds of AUs are really close to my heart, crossovers are fun, timetravel, fix-it is my go to... I have quite a lot of these!
T: Any fandom tropes you can’t stand?
Hmmmpf... I don’t like to say I don’t stand something, these are just things I’m not exactly a fan of.
I’ve always been bad at anything that has to do with comedy (I’ve only recently learned to live and watch comedy films, I used to hate them a few years back), so maybe... crackfics? Ok, good crack makes me cry my eyes out because I’m laughing so much but it’s pretty hard trope for me. 
I’m also either so decent (or at least try to think I am, which is a lie, I’m far from it haahah) or old-fashioned that I’m very bad at PWP as well.  
U: Share three of your favorite fic writers and why you like them so much.
@padfootagain she writes so good fluff! You can always trust that whatever she writes will cheer you up - and I often read her fics if I feel a bit down. She’s also one of my closest friends.
@something-tofightfor I love her way to tell the stories, her characters. I enjoy her style a lot. And she is also very cute human being.
@banditthewriter quite a lot like with the previous. I like the way she develops her stories and characters and always gives us something to wait for. She also seems so nice and genuine as a person. We don’t interact much but I still appreciate her a lot.
V: If you could write the sequel (or prequel) to any fic out there not written by yourself, which would you choose?
Whoa, this is hard... This is really hard because most of the fics I read already tell the stuff I’d tell in prequels. Maybe sequel... To @padfootagain‘s A Recipe For Love, to see the life of Caspian and the reader. But I don’t even dare to touch that masterpiece!!
W: Do you like more general prompts, or more specific ones?
Both are fine. I like prompts a lot, they help me but sometimes they also set me a trap haha! I tend to use more general ones myself and I’m fine with that. But if I find a list of some more specific ones and find it inspiring, why not?
X: A character you enjoy making suffer.
WHAT?? I hate to make any character suffer!! Ok, I’m a mascohist so maybe a bit but... No, that tells that I like to make the reader suffer? Because I’m not a sadist (even though, some of my friends might say so, they always say I’m killing them, so...). 
Y: A character you want to protect.
Caspian. Ryan Brenner. Steve Rogers. Billy Russo. Yes, you read right - Billy might not need my protection, but I’m doing it anyway. Paul “Jesus” Rovia is my dearest and I’ll fight for him. Tom Ward. Magneto. Athelstan. Sirius Black. Sam Winchester. All my actor babies. There are so many of them, they’re all my babies, I want to protect all of them!! (Logan, don’t look at me like that - yes, I’m protecting you too.)
Z: Major character death–do you ever write/read it? Is there a character whose death you can’t tolerate?
... I hate the fact that every time I watch a movie or a show or even read a book, it’s 100% sure that my favorite character dies. Or if not 100&, then at least 85-90%. But, the happy thing is that most of the characters are not killed in fanfiction! I can read deaths, yes, but... They’re not nice things to read. I can also write deaths, still not my fave things to do. 
Want a list of these characters? Sirius Black, Billy Russo, Logan Delos, Kili, Fili and Thorin, Steve Rogers or any of the Avengers (don’t come at me, I know we all have been thinking about this)... This list could go on and on.
Tagging: @padfootagain @jennareedus @carol-damn-vers @something-tofightfor @dylanobrusso @suchatinyinfinity @whostheblondegirlwriting @loriwrites @breanime @princerussoand everyone else who wants to do this. Sorry for the double tags.

do all the even numbersssssss
~evil stare~
2) What fandoms do you write for and do you have a particular favourite if you write for more than one?
Ugh.... Animorphs, Marvel, Sailor Moon, Tomorrow People, Firefly, Gundam Wing, Princess Tutu, DC Comics universe, Smallville, Danny Phantom, YURI!!! On Ice, Supernatural, Star Trek, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Daria, How To Train Your Dragon, Rise of the Guardians, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Power Rangers, Fullmetal Alchemist, Miraculous Ladybug, Phineas and Ferb, Gravitation, Yami no Matsuei, Weiss Kreuz, My Little Pony, FAKE, ElfQuest, Good Omens, Chronicles of Narnia, Lord of the Rings, Transformers, Stargate SG1, Pirates of the Caribbean, Highlander, The Sentinel, Boondock Saints, MacGyver, and a whole wild world of crossovers..... Yeesh. Anyway, I don’t have a particular favorite, though I will go through periods of working exclusively in one fandom or another before switching.
4) What is your favourite genre to write for?
Fanfic genre? Probably Alternate Timeline/For Want Of A Nail fics, where a single change in the timeline causes events to play out differently. I also have a weakness for time-travel fics. ^_^
6) If you had to delete one of your stories and never speak of it again, which would it be and why?
I thought we agreed never to speak of it again?
8) Where do you take your inspiration from?
Everywhere. Literally everywhere. Frequently from just sitting around letting my brain wander.
10) In your fic A Wish Your Heart Makes, why did you decide to end it like that? Did you have an alternative ending in mind?
I’ll be completely honest: the moment I got the prompt, I knew how the story was going to end. If anything, I made it less angsty than originally intended.
12) Who is your favourite character to write for? Why?
Depends on the fandom. In Marvel, regardless of the universe, I love writing for Tony and his flashy misdirection and nicknames hiding a wealth of genius and depth and background that the surface never shows. I have similar reasons for enjoying writing Sam Winchester in Supernatural. However, in Fullmetal Alchemist I love writing for Jean Havoc, a theoretical background character who is still deeply important to the narrative and has all sorts of depths to explore despite his canon dissembling about how “I ain’t the brightest, but I get by”. Basically, I guess I just love characters that have way more going on in their heads than gets shown on screen.
14) How did you come up with the title for Twist The Sinews Of Thy Heart? - You can ask about multiple stories.
It’s actually a line from the poem “Tyger Tyger Burning Bright”. Appropriate choice for a fic that features a “crazy” angel rescuing technically extinct tiger cubs. eh?
16) How did you come up with the idea for Twist The Sinews Of Thy Heart?
My dear enabler @rodiniaorzetalthepenquin asked for “fluffy Sastiel with tiger” for her birthday, and by Chuck I delivered! XD
18) Do you have any abandoned WIP’s? What made you abandon them?
Technically, yes, but I don’t exactly consider them abandoned. I have WIPs whose bunnies decided to fuck off to Monaco and chill with porn stars go on an extended vacation, and so they got put on the back-burner while I pursued other avenues in other fandoms, but I don’t think I’m capable of abandoning a WIP. I either finish it or straight-up kill it.
20) Are there any stories that you wished you’d ended differently?
There are a couple of fics that I wish I could have drawn out the resolution longer, but my momentum failed me.
22) Do you have a story that you look back on and cringe when you reread it?
Yep! Next?
24) How do you feel about writing smutty scenes?
Eh... I can do it when I need to, but it’s not my preferred thing to write.
26) Which part of your Amethystium fic was the hardest to write?
Definitely part five. I had to write it with just enough ambiguity to keep it from being too obvious exactly what I’d done so I wouldn’t get murdered by my readers.
28) What is something you wished you’d known before you started posting fanfiction?
The internet is full of people who all have different motivations for going online to read fan-created content. Some people are going to be friendly, some are going to be weirdly elitist about fandom, and some of those people are going to be assholes who want to tear you down just because they think they can and believe the internet anonymity will protect them from consequences. Don’t let them drive you out of what you love before you’re ready to move on to something new.
30) In contrast to 29 is there a story which gets lots of love which you kinda eye roll at?
Not really? Maybe some of my really old Animorphs fics that I wrote when I was twelve upon which I look back and feel like I could have done so much better?
32) Are any of your characters based on real people?
Sure, sometimes. Mostly the blink-and-you-miss-them NPCs. Occasionally some of the bigger OCs are based off of real people, but I try not to tell people that, or of whom the character is a representation. ^_~
34) What’s the harshest criticism you’ve gotten?
Probably the person who kept harping over my “obvious” lack of understanding of genetics, when I’d actually done the research prior to writing the fic and had sources to back up my in-story numbers. The person kept after me until I just deleted the entire fic “pending rewrite” to get rid of the whole damn argument chain, and I’ve just never gotten around to reposting it. Not even sure I still have the original fic file, actually.... Anyway, that was both the harshest and most stupid criticism ever, and for twenty-two years of fic-writing, that’s pretty decent, I think. (I don’t count flames, because those are just haters being mean.
36) Can you give us a spoiler for one of your WIP’s?
...Sam has wings. ^_~
38) If you could collab with any other writer on here, who would it be? (Perhaps this question will inspire some collabs!) If you’re shy, don’t tag the blog, just name it.
Of the people with whom I would like to collaborate and with whom I have not already collaborated, probably @jupiterjames and @theriverscribe
40) Do people know you write fanfiction?
Some of them, if I trust them a whole hell of a lot or we’re mutually blackmailing each other because they write fanfic too. (Looking at you, @jupiterjames )
42) Song fic - What made you decide to use the song “Bailamos” for Harry Potter.
Honestly? The crackfic potential and the chance to write male/male dance choreography. ^^U
44) What is the last line you wrote?
Rarely was Castiel disappointed in the offerings, and even those disappointments were because he didn't care for the flavors, not because of any fault in the quality of the pastries or drinks offered.
46) I really loved your “Phoenix Ascending” fic. If you were ever to do a sequel, what do you think might happen in it?
Well, Michael would take over and stabilize Heaven, Gabriel would get rescued from Assmodickus without Ketch’s help, Lucifer would die sooner, and Jack and Mary would be rescued fairly close to canon with a few obvious differences. Probably. Maybe. If I was writing a sequel. ~shifty look~
48) What’s your favourite trope to write?
Irritatingly, I love writing Slow Burn. I also hate it. Because it’s slow. And long.
50) If you could write only angst, fluff or smut for the rest of your writing life, which would it be and why?
Fluff. Angst hurts to write, frankly, and as for smut.... Meh. I'm really not that good at writing it solo; it's a lot easier to do cooperatively when I have someone else's character reactions to react to, but even then the actual deed is not so important for me as the depths of emotions behind it, so... Fluff.

Can u rec any good bnha fics?
hecc yeah i can (but there’s a lot of bakudeku so if you don’t ship that :/ sorry)
1. The Disappearance of Mineta Minoru this is the best crackfic i’ve ever read also mineta dies (most characters show up at least once; shipping, but it’s not important) please read this even if u dont read anything else in ur entire life
2. It’s Always Sunny in UA another crackfic, this one possibly better than the previous. lots of references. by lots i mean all 23 chapters are references within references within references. it’s impossible to catch them all. (no ships)
3. Blood Moon bakudeku with AMAZING characterization. i definitely cried at least once. enemies to friends to lovers (nsfw but lots of good plot)
4. Crybaby  more bakudeku. izuku is a pro hero, and bakugou is a phone-sex operator (nsfw and Plot That’s There But Isn’t Important Yet)
5. How to Mend a Broken Soul even more bakudeku. soulmate AU with lots of angst (some nsfw, mostly plot)
6. a boy and his dog: a wolf’s tail uhhhhhhhh bakugou’s a werewolf in an AU where people are fantasy creatures instead of having quirks; izuku’s still a human. this one’s super long but super super good. (a little nsfw)
7. know what i’ve made by the marks on my hands AU where still-quirkless izuku can see quirks that are manifested as spirits (no ships but it’s really cool)
8. Falling guess what ship,, lmao. Big Angst Big Fluff. bakudeku Big Feels from when they get together to when they do pro hero stuff together
9. Nutricula izuku gets a cool quirk in a different way (no ships)
