20 Questions For Fic Writers
Thank you for the tag @marley-manson!
I'll be tagging @seaofolives, @alovelyburn, @white-winter-hymnals, @moonlight-blue-rose, and @shiroganeryo
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
Currently six, five complete and one ongoing
2. What's your total AO3 wordcount?
16,145
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Mainly Berserk but I also write for D.Gray-Man and dabbled in SK8 the Infinity
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
A Familiar Canvas ➡️ wild (like young volcanoes) ➡️ say me, wight in the bom ➡️ One of Heart, One of Mind ➡️ Encompassing Lust
5. Do you respond to comments?
I always do!
6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Probably Take Me to the Poppy Field. It's pre-canon ManaCross, so ofc it's angsty, and I do love myself some good ManaCross angst
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Easily One of Heart, One of Mind. It's a Yulma wedding fic and I shoved all the fluff and happy feels into it as possible
8. Do you get hate on your fics?
Not yet and not to my knowledge
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Uhhhhh let's see. Encompassing Lust contains sexual content but I wouldn't go as far as to call it smut. I'd like to write a proper smut fic one day but I'd have to be in the proper mood for it, if you get my gist
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
wild (like young volcanoes) would be considered a crossover by some, but it's really just an au, a Percy Jackson au
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Hopefully not
12. Have you ever had a fic translated
Not yet
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Not yet
14. What's your all-time favorite ship?
This is hard! Can I cheat and make it a three-way tie between GriffGuts, Yulma, and Matchablossom? I tend to alternate a lot between these three and I love them so much.
15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
My GriffGuts lovechild au. I've shared snippets of it on this blog before but every time I try to work on it, my mind takes me elsewhere. I still want to finish it though! The question is when
16. What are your writing strengths?
That's a very good question that I have no good answer to. I guess I'm pretty good when it comes to descriptions. And metaphors. I love myself a good metaphor, so when I have the opportunity to add one, I will
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
I'd be here all day if I listed off every one of my writing weaknesses lmao. But if I did have to narrow it down, it'd definitely have to be my perfectionism and chronic revisionism. I can't stand it when a word or sentence structure doesn't sit right with my mind. I'll just stare at it for minutes and if I can't find a solution, I'll just straight up nuke the entire doc because everything else starts to look wrong in my mind. My beta readers can attest to this
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in a fic?
*traumatic flashbacks of all the VLD fics that had Lance speaking bad Spanish/Spanglish*
I don't think writing dialogue in a different language is bad at all, it's just very obvious when the author is 1) a non-native speaker and 2) uses Google translate. Don't be afraid to reach out to friends who speak the language you're trying to write!
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Officially published? Berserk. But first ever? That would be Percy Jackson. It's a stapled five-page, handwritten reader insert fic and I still have it in my room, under my bed.
20. Favorite fic you've written?
Oh hands down it's One of Heart, One of Mind. Yulma is a ship that means so much to me and it quite literally defined the way that I viewed queer ships in media. It took me forever to write this fic but that was because I wanted to do them justice.

matchablossom | summer '13 - part two
Kaoru’s elbow feels pointier than normal when it grinds into Kojiro’s ribs.
“Stop fidgeting, you look fine,” Kaoru mumbles. He glances sideways at Kojiro, just barely, taking in the unfamiliar sight of him in traditional dress. “You look good.”
Kojiro’s glad they’re sitting down because the way pink spreads across Kaoru’s cheeks is so reminiscent to a few days ago when they kissed for the first time—only time?—takes all the strength out of Kojiro’s legs.
“Kaoru—”
“Shh,” Kaoru hisses softly. “It’s starting.”
Kojiro snaps his mouth shut, confession or begging or whatever it is clawing at his own chest, dying down to a simmer. Kaoru looks calm, back straight, shoulders square, but his fingers—wiped clean of dark polish for the first time in months—drag back and forth against the fabric of his kimono covering his thigh. They don’t match, but their clothes are complimentary, obviously a couple—even though they’re nothing of the sort. Kaoru left it late to invite Kojiro to his cousin’s wedding, the request coming to Kojiro through his own mother, when she happened to mention her concern over Kaoru attending such an important event alone.
When he reaches out, gently touching the back of Kaoru’s hand to still it, he is not shaken off, so Kojiro carefully turns Kaoru’s hand over so he can interlock their fingers and hold his hand through the ceremony.
—
Kojiro’s one reassurance heading into the wedding was that at least there wouldn’t be dancing like he’s seen in so many weddings in western TV shows. Except, of course, they stay late enough for the after-wedding party, which surely, they won’t because Kaoru’s opinion of his extended family is middling at best.
And yet—
At least the music is slow, and Kaoru is right there, so close their chest are all but pressed together, Kojiro’s hand on his waist, Kaoru gently gripping Kojiro’s shoulder.
“Someone from my part of the family had to stay long enough to keep face,” Kaoru mumbles, eyes carefully averted. “Sorry.”
“I don’t mind,” Kojiro says and right now, he means it. They could have just sat at one of their tables, drinking sour wine and getting increasingly close to making a scene. But Kaoru’s great aunts and uncles wouldn’t leave them alone when they tried. At least here, out on the makeshift dance floor, they’re deemed busy enough to leave alone.
They move together slowly, barely swaying, barely talking.
Kaoru sighs, his hand fiddling with the tie at the end of his long braid. His face is clear today, no hints of smudged eyeliner, no lip-ring and just the faintest hint of freckles on his nose from all the time they’ve been spending out on the sun.
“Why?”
Kojiro startles, thinks for a second that he imagines Kaoru speaking but, finally, he’s looking right at him, golden eyes guarded.
“Why what?” Kojiro asks.
Kaoru’s lips press together, so hard they briefly turn white. “Why did you ask for a kiss the other day?”
“I didn’t think I’d win,” Kojiro admits.
Kaoru’s face shutters closed with a speed Kojiro is not used to seeing directed at himself.
“It was a joke,” Kaoru says flatly, he makes to pull out of Kojiro’s hold but he grips him more tightly, knowing that here, of all places, Kaoru won’t risk making a scene.
“That's not what I said,” Kojiro says. Nothing for it but to be honest, finally. “I just—I’ve wanted to—still want to. I was just—hiding it behind a joke, so you wouldn’t know.”
“You want to kiss me?” Kaoru clarifies. Again, the pink spreads over his cheeks and Kojiro’s hearth thumps painfully against his ribs. Kojiro nods. Kaoru’s lips press together again, but a twitch in his cheek let’s Kojiro know he’s hiding a smile this time.
“Okay,” Kaoru says.
Kojiro’s mouth feels very dry, “Okay?”
“I mean,” Kaoru starts and there’s no space between them but somehow, he anchors them closer together. “You can kiss me.”
Dumbstruck, Kojiro leans in, but Kaoru turns his head to the side, hissing, “Not now, you dumbass.”
Kojiro had quite forgotten where they are and he pulls his head back, hoping it’s not too obvious what he was trying to do.
“Later?” Kojiro asks, embarrassed by the touch of whine colouring his word.
Kaoru smirks. “Later.”

Matchablossom Prompt Tiiiime!
'Cause im bored TvT
---------------------------------
Prompt: Who pulls the other closer while sleeping?
----------------------------------
Kaoru exited the bathroom and quietly closed the door, tiptoeing with practiced silence across the room so as to not wake up Kojiro, sleeping peacefully in bed.
He quietly slipped under the covers, pulling them up and lying down beside Kojiro and content to wait for sleep to return, when he suddenly felt two arms wrap around his waist. He looked behind him just as Kojiro pulled him snugly against his chest, putting his nose in Kaoru's hair and continuing to snore.
Kaoru blinked a few times, then he smiled softly and let himself bask in the warmth of Kojiro's body heat, closing his eyes and falling asleep in record time.

GUYS, I DID THE MATH.
SO- If Kojiro and Kaoru are both 26 in the anime, (27 in real time, since both their birthdays have passed) then that means that they were born in 1995/1996 (95 in real time, 96 in the anime)
AAAAND since people who were born in 1977-1995 are considered Millennials, if we're going by real time that's passed Matchablossom are in fact- Millennials.
And if we're going by the anime then they're RIGHT AT THE CUTOFF-

Headcanons: Kojiro and Karou's Relationship
Headcanons for my What a Life Sk8 Family AU, specifically about Kojiro and Karou's relationship!
At first glance, you'd automatically assume that Kojiro is the flirtatious one, but in reality, it's Karou.
He was the biggest flirt in High-school, and once he became friends with Kojiro, a lot of their dynamic was just relentless flirting all the time on Karou's side, and intense blushing paired with helpless stammering on Kojiro's.
Kojiro sucks at flirting lol, he'll try but then he gets nervous and trips over his words, but Karou thinks it's cute :)
He's gotten better at it over the years, but he still sucks in the long run 😅
Sometimes, Karou will become insecure in their relationship, out of fear that Kojiro will suddenly realize that he's way too good for him and leave :(
When that happens, Kojiro always makes sure to give Karou lots of extra love and reassures his husband that he loves him, and will never leave no matter what.
Karou initiated their first kiss, and afterward, Kojiro was such a blushing mess that he nearly fainted.
Karou's parents didn't approve of Kojiro, so they said screw y'all 💃and eloped, but when they looked back on it, they did wish they'd had a real wedding.
Eventually though, they did decide to have a small ceremony in Hawaii with Kojiro's family present.
It was very nice and aesthetic, and Karou wore a very pretty flower crown Kojiro's baby sister picked out for him UvU

Kaoru and Kojiro's Wedding (and Carla) - Part 4/4 (July 10th 2021) 🤵🤵©️
And now we come to the fourth and last part of Kaoru and Kojiro's (and Carla's) wedding. We hope you enjoy it as much as the previous ones.
Keep in mind that My wedding stories game pack was still a year away from release, so the interactions at this wedding were the ones available since 2014
Kyan siblings finally speaking alone
And Langa goes in search of Reki
And what usually happens on the wedding night... Happens!
Kojiro leaves Kaoru sleeping on his side of the bed but... Yes, when he comes down to help pick up, Kaoru moves to the other side of their bed.
Reki is a sunshine, he went to help Kojiro with the dirty dishes.
So much for Kaoru and Kojiro's wedding, they are already asleep, it has been a very tiring day for everyone and now they just need to agree on where to go on their honeymoon trip. To Italy, to the Space, stay on Sia la luce or nowhere? 🧐🤔
And so here is the end of their wedding, in the next post will be a poll that will last a day for you to vote where you think they went. 🤵🤵©️
LOVE AGAIN! 💗

okay Sk8 fandom hear me out here: Matchablossom Robin Hood AU
So Joe is Robin Hood and Cherry is Maid Marian. Cherry and Joe were in when they were teens. They and Adam were all noble bros until Adam starting being, yknow, a psycho. So Joe tries to stop him and it goes really badly, ending with someone innocent dead. Joe gets blamed and has to flee into Sherwood Forest. Adam is prince I guess so he becomes king, and Cherry is forced to move on or be called a traitor, and resolves to forget about Joe, resigning himself to, if he ever does marry, marry someone he doesn’t love.
very sad. Meanwhile, Joe is chilling in Sherwood, missing Cherry but focusing on survival first. He ends up robbing people, but resolves only to do this to the rich and powerful, like Adam. He gathers up Miya, Langa, Reki, and Shadow as his “merry” men, and as days turn into months and months turn into two years, he decides he needs to move on and let Cherry go.
🎶then he accidentally robs Cherry’s caravan🎶
so Cherry’s all like “fuck off and die” but secretly he’s really happy to see Joe again but mad at himself for feeling that way. and Joe’s all like “oh he clearly hates me now” and tries to act all aloof and “yeah fuck you too” but he’s actually very hurt. literally everyone else can tell they’re still in love and slowly help them rebuild their relationship. they start to admit they still love each other, but just when they’re about to be together again…
tragedy strikes! the gang is found by Adam’s men. Cherry agrees to go with them if they don’t arrest the “merry” men, but it’s Adam so he arrests Joe anyway. schedules his execution for the same day Cherry has to leave for [insert place here] to get married. the rest of the “merry” men break in and free Joe, but they have to hurry to get to Cherry before he leaves on a boat to [insert place here] and is gone forever! they do stop Cherry’s departure just in time, but Adam shoots Joe with a crossbow trying to kill Cherry. Reki gets Adam’s bitch ass thrown in the ocean, but Joe is still shot. deathbed confessions. it looks like Joe died but surprise surprise he didn’t and they get him to a healer just in time. woods wedding and happily ever after! :)

Title: A Perfectly Elegant Affair
Fandom: Sk8 the Infinity
Pairing: MatchaBlossom
Rating: What’s below teen? It’s fine for whatever age…
Summary: Cherry and Joe are planning the wedding. Kaoru is going overboard and Joe is trying to be supportive. It's...not going well.
I wrote this for the Sk8 the Infinity wedding zine, Hear the Bells Ring. I was surprised to get in the zine, as I had no Sk8 content out in the universe…just a WIP that was in rough draft form. Thankfully, since it was a fairly new fandom, the mods were alright with applicants submitting non-Sk8 stuff. To know that I got in on the strength of my writing was very humbling. Not only that, I found out that I was one of four writers chosen. Humbling times one hundred.
It was set up rather cleverly, I thought. Each writer was to take one of four ships (Renga, MatchaBlossom, ShadOka, and TadAi)…and also one of four wedding stages (engagement, planning, ceremony, and reception). I hoped to get Renga, as that is my ship. I was writing a Renga piece for another zine, and the WIP mentioned above is Renga. Alas, the guest writer for the zine was a Renga writer and they had first choice. I hoped, then, to get MatchaBlossom. I thought their dynamic would be perfect for a funny story with wedding planning. I did get MatchaBlossom and planning…and now you get to enjoy Joe and Cherry insulting the heck out of each other while trying to plan a wedding.
Shadow makes a brief appearance, but the others are only mentioned. I also use Joe and Cherry’s real names, instead of their “S” names. I thoroughly enjoyed writing this!

Headcanon that Joe and Cherry are engaged during the 1st season (not yet married) and the kids find out and Reki and Miya literally go into boss mode. “What do you MEAN you haven’t started planning your wedding yet!?? You’ve been engaged for over a year!” And they literally start planning everything. Langa helps decorate with the decorations Reki made (there’s also the cheesy moment where he falls of a ladder and reki catches him but they both fall an-)
Miya goes into full coordinator mode “you’re having a total of 150 guests. They’re going to be entertained with drinks and finger foods that aren’t messy until the ceremony starts. After the ceremony we’ll go to the banquet hall where there will be food, dancing, drinks, and other entertainment. There we will also have a slideshow of pictures from their childhood to adulthood’s. Joe will have dinner from his restaurant served and the cake will be bought from a trust worthy friend. It will be vanilla and chocolate with cherry blossom flowers trailing on it. A wedding topper that’s a gorilla carrying the other groom over his shoulder (but in all seriousness the boys made another cake with a wedding topper specifically designed of their S personas and skateboards).” And the honeymoon is more planned by Oka and Hiromi but with the boys sneaking some of their ideas in too (“they’ll spend the first night at the same bathhouse we went to then go to Paris the next morning”). Then once the wedding is over they leave before everyone else does with people throwing flowers and rice. Joe drives them to the bathhouse and the rest are left to clean up the wedding.
Hiromi had supplied all the flowers and the Bouquet for the wedding (reki caught it but gave it back to cherry before they left)
The cake would probably be white icing with cherry blossoms trailing down it and green succulents around the bottom
There theme is just calming. A mix of traditional Japanese things and Italian things.
That’s what it’ll look like
With more “them” decorations though
They’ll both be wearing white suits
It’ll be a spring wedding
They’ll have a coffee bar bc I’m pretty sure Joe is an addict
They’ll also have a bar with all different kinds of drinks for kids and adults (ofc they let their boys have a little bit of champagne)
When they get back from their honeymoon they walk into the skate shop and everyone is just sitting there smirking
(I forgot to mention that Kaoru puts in his piercings for the wedding)
When they were cleaning up the wedding mess afterwards the boys were all just high-fiving each other because they did wonderful
Also Langa somehow convinced to get ad*m to pay for practically everything
Ad*m told Tadashi to pick the hotel in Paris for them and he picked a love hotel (but it was changed by whoever caught that he did that thankfully)
Carla was the maid of honor
Reki was the best man
Langa and Hiromi were the flower boys
Tadashi officiated the wedding
Ad*m was kicked out before it even started because he was sobbing about how cherry and Joe were the true Adam and Eve
Sketchy was the ring bearer
Kojiro tried to smash the cake in Kaorus face but somehow ended up with it on his own face
It was a good wedding
Sorry I’m just self projecting because I’m the maid of honor and planning my best friends wedding for her
(The pictures used in this are pictures of a family friends wedding chapels they built on their land in 2017 and it’s beautiful as fuck)

matchablossom | reincarnation
Kojiro’s never minded the memories.
They’re not bad, most of the time. The lives he’s spent with his soulmate have mostly been good. Ended well, at least.
This is the oldest they’ve ever gotten without finding each other, Kojiro thinks. Not every memory is perfect, some lifetimes hidden completely from him. Maybe he’ll remember one day, maybe they’ll all come rushing into Kojiro’s mind when they find each other.
Kojiro misses him. Every single day.
They’ve never met — not technically — but he aches for him. For the flash of pink and gold in his mind, the faint echo of delicate fingers trapped between his own.
Tadashi bustles out of the back office, calculator clutched in one hand, a stack of papers in the other. Even if jealousy didn’t surge every time he catches sight of the shiny wedding band on his ring finger, Kojiro wouldn’t want to talk to him about this.
“You’re moping again,” Tadashi says.
“I never mope,” Kojiro argues.
Tadashi tilts his head to one side, “So we can go over the budget now?”
Kojiro groans.
“You’re spending too much money on olive oil,” Tadashi mutters, turning back to the office. Kojiro follows, despite desperately wanting to do anything else.
*—* —*
He should have grabbed a bottle on the way out of the restaurant, but it’s a bad habit he doesn’t like to rely on. The only good liquor store open when he’s finally closed up for the night is annoyingly far from his apartment, but he’s got the idea in his head now.
It’s probably due to close soon, but the guy behind the counter doesn’t look up to glare at him as he crosses the threshold. Kojiro knows what he wants, knows where to find it and heads straight to the second aisle.
Only to pull up short when there’s already someone standing where he needs to be. Narrow shoulders, black hood pulled up hiding their hair, jeans so tight Kojiro couldn’t not notice the shape of their thighs even if he tried.
“Sorry,” Kojiro mumbles, reaching past them. “Can I just —”
They turn and Kojiro’s heart stops beating.
Caramel gold eyes half hidden behind dark rimmed glasses, a thick tail of pink hair trailing out from beneath the fabric of his hood. He goes pink, all across his cheeks and nose, a beautiful flush that Kojiro knows will follow him into their next life.
“There you are,” Kojiro whispers.
“This wasn’t where I pictured our reunion,” Kaoru responds.
Kojiro huffs out a little laugh. “You kept me waiting too long for something more special, sorry.”
Kaoru rolls his eyes briefly towards the ceiling before smiling, a little wobbly, a little wetness gathering along his bottom lashes.
“I kept you waiting?” he demands. “Keep you waiting even longer if you’re not careful.”
Kaoru is clutching a bottle of wine, the same one Kojiro planned on buying. He reaches out to take it, Kaoru only clings on for a heartbeat before letting Kojiro take it.
“Shall we share this?”
Kaoru sighs, petering off into a soft chuckle which catches damp at the end, “Just this once I suppose.”
*—* —*
Kaoru’s a whole glass in, Kojiro just half. He sits on the Kojiro’s couch more comfortably than he ever has — back against the arm, legs folded elegantly underneath him.
“What do you do?” Kojiro asks.
His parents moved him out of Okinawa when he was two years old, which explains why it’s taken so long for them to meet. They travelled a lot, in the last life, maybe the one before. They’ve lived other places too, mostly Japan, Europe once or twice. There’s a castle in one of Kojiro’s memories, cropping up over and over again, but it might just be something they’ve visited in each and every life.
Kaoru’s mouth purses, lips turning white. He doesn’t answer, instead asks, “What are you doing?”
“Chef,” Kojiro says. “Again.”
Kaoru blinks, mouth opening and closing again. Kojiro thinks he knows what’s happening, a memory there, something not quite perfectly formed but maybe poked at by Kojiro’s confession. It happened to him once, almost dropped to his knees by a buzzing in his brain when his little sister yanked the back panel off her laptop and exposed all the stuff inside it.
“What do you —”
“Traditional,” Kojiro says. “Mostly. We have seasonal specials, lets me stretch my muscles.”
Kaoru smirks, but when Kojiro grins, naturally leans forward in interest he closes himself off, even drags his feet in closer to himself. He sighs, but it’s not a happy sound.
“I’m an artist,” Kaoru says. “Not very —”
“You’re good,” Kojiro interrupts. “You’re amazing.” It makes Kaoru smirk again.
“Oh, I’m very good,” Kaoru agrees. “I’m just not very successful.”
The news rocks Kojiro a little — Kaoru has always been the more successful one, in ways that are trackable at least.
“Tokyo wasn’t working so I came back here,” Kaoru goes on. “I was living with my grandparents, but it — it was exhausting. Commissions only…” he trails off, won’t look Kojiro in the eye.
“There’s a reason you suggested my place, huh?”
Kaoru nods, slightly weary, his embarrassment almost prickly in the air surrounding them.
“If I suggest you move in, is that the fastest we’ve ever moved?”
“I think so,” Kaoru says carefully, cheeks flooded with colour again. “Though only by a few hours. The —”
“Farm,” Kojiro blurts. “Holy shit, the farm.”
Kaoru drains his second glass. “I’m glad we’ve moved past that, at least.”
*—* —*
Kaoru fidgets in his sleep, hand shifting on the bed, his eyebrow twitching until it’s impossible for Kojiro to keep his hands to himself. He smooths a thumb over that brow and Kaoru goes still, breath even, face slack for a few torturous seconds before his eyelashes flutter.
“Good morning,” Kojiro whispers.
“’Morning,” Kaoru mumbles in return.
“You were dreaming about me,” Kojiro guesses.
Kaoru hmms in agreement. “Us, technically.”
“Which one was it?”
“There were —” Kaoru yawns, the last word almost garbled beyond comprehension. “Skateboards.”
“I hate that one,” Kojiro says. “We were idiots.”
Kaoru lets his eyes droop closed again, rolls onto his side and nestles closer.
“I think that was the smartest I’ve ever been actually,” Kaoru whispers. “I built an AI.”
“That’s why it’s my least favourite,” Kojiro mutters. “Hated that thing.”
“Her,” Kaoru corrects, frowning even as he obviously tries to find sleep again. “I wish I could remember what I called her.”
Kojiro pushes on Kaoru’s hip until he rolls over onto his back, despite verbal protests. He sighs happily when Kojiro follows, laying over him and slipping easily into the space between his parted thighs.
“What are you doing?” Kaoru asks, laughing. Kojiro thinks it’s pretty obvious.
“You know what they say,” Kojiro responds, dipping his head to kiss Kaoru’s throat as he skims his palms down his sides, digging his fingers into the thighs he’d admired before he even knew they belonged to Kaoru. “Extended contact with your soulmate can enhance past memories. I’m helping you remember.”
“I see,” Kaoru teases. “And that’s the only reason, of course.”
“Mhm.”
“I suppose I better let you get on with it then,” Kaoru sighs.
Kojiro is suddenly too busy to properly respond.
