Hi! Can you please answer for the fanfic asks A, D, H, K, M, V and Y? I hope you're having a lovely day!
yay! thank you for the ask! 🥰🥰🥰
I hope I got them all!
A: Of the fanfic you’ve written, which is your favorite and why?
This question is so hard. 😭 I've written hundreds of fics just for Thomas Hunt alone and then hundreds more between the other characters. I love each one for different reasons. I wouldn't even know how to pick a favorite. But it would probably be something for Thomas Hunt (just because I'm biased like that lol)
Though my Orphanage series for Mal and Daenarya has a really special place in my heart.
D: What’s the most personal fanfic you’ve written?
I feel like there are bits and pieces of me in a lot of my stories or characters. Definitely Alex and Bogart! But as for a singular story, probably Sea Lions, Tiger Sharks, and Penguins, oh, my! In it Bryce, Olivia, and the gang visit the Boston aquarium, where Olivia wants to steal a penguin. When I visited Boston and went to the aquarium, I definitely made a plan to borrow (without asking) one of the little blue fairy penguins. I tried to convince my friends to help, but alas, I still have no penguin pet! But I do have a little blue penguin plush just like Olivia's .... but I had to buy it myself. I didn't have a beautiful Bryce to get me one. That fic is 100% based on real events!
H: How would you describe your writing style?
all the fluff all the time, fluff without plot, and small moment stories (did I mention the fluff yet?) oh and heart warming stories
K:  Do you have a guilty pleasures in fic (reading or writing)?
In writing, I don't think so? I think I'm happy to write everything I write for even if people don't like it or consider it weird. If anything, I guess Justin Mercado would be a guilty pleasure since I enjoyed writing him, even though I got a lot of hate for it.
In reading, I definitely enjoy reading dom/sub, master/slave, and MMF stories 🙈🙈🙈.
M: What’s the weirdest AU scenario you’ve ever come up with?  Did it turn into a story?
I have a Hollywood U/Red Carpet Diaries AU that is inspired by the concept behind the Broadway musical If/Then, where one decision can set you on two very different paths.
It would focus on the choice of whether Thomas and Alex get together (in HWU) or not so it would follow their lives after both versions of that choice until the timeline of the RCD series, however it definitely focused more on them not getting together since I'd consider everything else I write as part of the world where they do get together.
So it isn't my happily ever after Thomas and Alex. It's dark and angsty and doesn't have a happy ending. I'm not sure that qualifies as weird but it's definitely OOC for me. I want to write it because I think it would be an amazing story, but I can't bring myself to break their hearts and mine, and possibly cause them physical harm. It currently has 2 dark endings and one is a major character death. ahhh!! (Though I guess you can consider them getting together and my regular writing as the 3rd ending aka the happy one, but still it's all so painful to think about)
V: Are there certain comments you’ve received on your stories that have stuck with you?
Any comments that mention how my story cheered them up on a bad day, made them cry (in a good / happy way), or ones that quote back my writing, those are the ones that always stick with me and I always go back to reread them.
3 lovely readers who have left comments that have stuck with me over the years are @lilyoffandoms @quixoticdreamer16 and @ariondevereux (BratzLahela😭 Miss you!!!).
Y: What are your thoughts on your personal satisfaction with something you’ve written vs. the popularity of your stories?  Do you tend to be most satisfied with your most popular stories?  
Oo this question! I know I love the serotonin boost I get from popular stories. I know I shouldn't crave that, but I'm flawed and human and I do love to get reblogs and comments. However, some of my favorite stories are for characters that are less popular so they definitely don't get as much attention. I mean poor Thomas Hunt has like 3 fans left. I'd love to get hundreds of notes but I accept that's not in the realm of possibility. Thankfully I love Thomas more than I care about being popular. I would write him even if there were no people reading! lol
On good days, I am happy with what I write and I can hold on to that despite the popularity of it, but sometimes it's easy to think "well this character/story got a lot of attention, I guess I should do more of this." I try not to do that and just focus on what I want to tell, but yeah, it's not always easy.
Woo that was so much fun! Thank you so so much for the ask! I know I'm usually the worst with answering asks so I tried really hard to make sure I did this one in a timely manner. I appreciate your ask and you for being so lovely and supportive always! 💛💛💛

23, 40, 44, 45
Hey, Nonny! Thanks so much for the "Most likely" ask!!
23: always be late?
Alex!
Alex!
Alex!
I'm not sure how many fics I've written where this occurs, but it's quite frequently. Alex is notoriously late! Or rather, fashionably late!
It used to drive Thomas insane, because I HC that he's never been late a day in his life. He's not early. He is precise.
Thomas has learned to give a little and accept the times she is late (because she's worth the wait) but Alex has also tried to be more mindful of time and is late much less frequently
40: break the rules?
Alex! She doesn't break any major rules or laws, just little ones. She likes to exploit the grey areas in things and just bend rules slightly.
Thomas is far more the rule follower. (But, Alex definitely pushes him to push his limits a bit and have fun)
44: become a good parent?
Both! Both Thomas and Alex are amazing parents.
Thomas was a little nervous and hesitant at first. He wasn't sure he could do it. But once his children were born, he was completely captivated by them and would do anything to care for and protect them.
45: change outfits five times before going out?
Alex!
In her defense, she wasn't as bad with this before meeting Addison! After Addison, she really just learned to h ave too much fun trying things on
Once she has the twins, she's lucky if she leaves with something clean on lol (she and Thomas really try to live a "normal" life and don't hire nannies or anyone to really help with the kids. They want to be the most present parents they can given the lives they live)

Informing you about the RC books I read so far:
Heaven's Secret: you read it too
Queen in 30 Days: old RC book and similar to Choices TRR. I romanced the bodyguard and best friend of the crown prince, Adam
Hollywood Story: old RC book similar to Choices Red Carpet Diares. I stayed Single. Nothing special. I would give it 2 out of 5
Moonborn: it was okaaaaay, but not bad. Old RC book. I romanced the werewolf. It's like a vampire and werewolf love triangle
Shadows of Saintfour: Teenage Highschool Horror book. I really enjoyed it and romanced the popular student, Michael. Forca Horror Hater, I love that book. 5/5
Wave Patrol: Safe Guard Book. Not my taste. MC is cool. I hate Jake, worst LI ever. I felt so pushed. I romanced nobody. 1,5/5
Legend of the Willow: Asian Fantasy Book. Very well written. Recommending. I romanced Kazu, the ninja. Stars 5 out of 5
Seduced by the Rythm: Dance Book. I romanced nobody because they were all ewwwwww. The nice guys weren't even LIs. Like Charles. Just my own opinion !!! 1/5
On Thin Ice: currently reading. I told you about it before too. Currently great 4/5
Oooh thanks for the reviews!!! I think I'll read on Thin Ice and Legend of the Willow next 🤩 I've also read a lot about Song of the Crimson Nile... and Sins of London (supernatural detective/crime) calls to me...

Six Sentence Sunday
for @choicesficwriterscreations​​
I’m really trying to stick with six sentences (or close to it)!
Tumblr media
Family Fun *(hopefully I will finish this today!) Red Carpet Diaries: Thomas Hunt x Alex (OC) with the twins, Bogart, Rachel Hunt, Steve (Rachel’s husband), Henry (Rachel’s son)
Thomas reached out, pulling her closer, his hands resting on her hips. “Have I mentioned how beautiful you look today?”
“Yes!” She leaned forward placing a chaste kiss on his lips. “But I’m still letting them in.”
The doorbell rang again.
“Coming!”
Tumblr media
The Warmth of the Sun The Elementalists: Beckett Harrington x Emma (MC)
Taking a deep breath, he cleared his throat. “Emma?”
“Mmhmm?” She hummed, shelving the books in her hand, waiting for something more to follow. “Did you need something?”
Beckett rocked forward on his toes and brushed a quick kiss on her forehead before losing his nerves. 
She chewed the corner of her lower lip. “What was that for?”
Tumblr media
Untitled Open Heart: Bryce Lahela x Olivia (OC)
Her nose crinkled as a slow smile grew across her face. 
“I know you’re not sleeping,” he murmured in her ear, brushing another feathery kiss on the back of her neck. He curled his fingers through her deep red hair, admiring the way it glowed in the morning light.
“Hi.” Her voice was but a whisper as she turned into him. 
“Hi, yourself.” His lips greeted her with a warm embrace, gently welcoming her to the new day.
Tumblr media
Untitled Red Carpet Diaries: Thomas Hunt x Alex (OC)
"Is this your surprise?” He looked around skeptically at the quaint Dutch inspired town.
“Nope.” She slipped out of the car and walked toward the path. 
Thomas quickly followed, taking her hand once it was offered to him. “What are we doing here then?”
“Walking.” She smiled, leaning further into his arm.
“Why?
"Walking is good for you.” She did her best to keep a straight face as she continued. “Remember what our dear friend Tucker Paisley said, walking ‘gets the blood flowing, grows your brain potential by, like... 3x’.”

I've searched through my own AO3 bookmarks and history tabs, and I present to you 28 jily muggle fics that I LOVE. I am THRILLED thinking about all the good things in store for those that read these wonderful stories. This list took me ages to make because I went through and reread most of these brilliant fics. Happy reading !! xx
properly improper by @lizardcookie
“Marry me,” Mr. Potter repeats, closing the distance between them by striding back up towards the sofa, only to stop and crouch to one knee right there at her feet, looking up at her. Burning. “Pick me,” he elaborates. “Pick me, choose me, love me instead.”
- this fic is the reason why I comment the way that I do (spoiler it's because it's amazing)
The Wedding Ring by @mppmaraudergirl
What is undeniably worse than attending your sister's wedding looking as desolate and forgotten as a wilted houseplant? Drunkenly ringing your ex-boyfriend and asking him to be your date.
- SOBS UNCONTROLLABLY AT THE PERFECTION
Oh my god, they were ROOMMATES by @magic-girl-in-a-muggle-world
Silly one-shot, Muggle AU with Fem!Jily as pining roommates and Marlene as their matchmaker.
- the fic that brought me back to jily and inspired my deep obsession of fem!jily
Swipe Right, Swing Left by @downn-in-flames
The unspoken rule of using dating apps in D.C. is that you always start with where you work.
James Potter, it seems, never picked up on that one.
- giddy just thinking about this gem
'Tis the Damn Season by @petalstofish
It doesn't feel like Christmas for Lily Evans, not after losing her parents to COVID before the Holiday season. She anticipates spending Christmas all alone until a boy from her past shows up and offers her a mutually benefiting deal that has her calling him 'babe' just for the weekend. 'Tis the damn season, after all.
- cries in respect for lyrical writing
Watch Me Unwind by @maraudersftw
Lily Evans hates her job, hates the bigoted customers she has to serve as a bartender at the richest club in the city. But the one person who makes bearing all of it worth it has someone else in his arms tonight. (Rated: M)
- obsessed with the way the plot jumps around the time line in this
oil be there for you by @abby10fanfic
Texting/Social Media AU: Lily and James haven't spoken for 2 years. But that's all about to change thanks to Peter and his involvement in an essential oil pyramid scheme. Featuring boss babes, toxin-free lifestyles, binding contracts, and a very oily journey.
- YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE HOW FAB THIS IS
a matchmaking mission by @downn-in-flames
James Potter has a mission: get Sirius Black and Remus Lupin to finally admit that they both fancy the pants off each other by Valentine's Day.
His partner in crime? Lily Evans, Remus' flatmate, who he also happens to be slightly in love with
- DOUBLE the amount of pining idiots in love :")
about time by @jilyss
'sure, yeah, I can accompany you to that black tie event for your work tonight. wait. why are we on a red carpet?'
- this is my emotional comfort fic, your honor
whiskey business by @elanev91
Sirius Black has a (bad?) habit of picking up hobbies that take over his and James' flat -- this most recent one? Homemade vodka that James now has to try and peddle to everyone in the building.
- hysterical! must read!
Fashion Disaster by @maraudersftw
James Potter is roped into an awful dare by his best-mate, which involves him wearing atrocious pieces of clothing for all days until Christmas as dictated by Sirius. If this wasn't terrible enough, he now has to contend with his maddening crush on the beautiful saleswoman at the clothing store.
- classic hijinks that I live for
it wasn't a pity invite by @elanev91
Part of the December "Winter Tropes" Jily challenge. Prompt: my family invites you to join our holiday meal as an obvious setup and omG i’m so sorry
- awkward Christmas date that owns my heart
spice and honey by @clare-with-no-i
tagging along with her food reporter sister to profile James Potter, London's hottest young chef, is not how Lily Evans pictured her Monday going - especially if he's anything like Petunia’s described.
needless to say, she's in for a whirlwind at Chez Maraudeur.
- I'm one re-read away from printing this out and putting it on my bookshelf.
Waffle Wars by @elanev91
There's only one waffle maker in the dining hall and it literally always breaks. So, naturally, the only reasonable course of action is to meticulously map out when it's working and, ultimately, do a heist.
- the witty narration in this fic can not be matched
You Can Hear It In The Silence by @alrightginger
Lily is non-verbal and deaf in a world where the things your soulmate says about you end up written on your skin. She has known about her soulmate since she was seven, but knows they don't have a clue she exists and possibly never will.
- exquisite, cue me sobbing forever
out the window by @displayheartcode
A new family moves to Ottery St Catchpole.
- everything I could ever want in a fic, forever in my mind rent free
The Christmas Guest by @thegodmachine
An Evans Family Christmas: Petunia is bringing her fiancé and Lily is bringing her…Friend…
- petunia pov that gives me WINGS
Football, Calculus, and Cappuccinos by @moonawrites
At eighteen years old, James Potter has a lot going on. He's a rising star navigating the politics of professional football, the pitfalls of sudden fame, the fallout from choosing his dream over his father's company... and a serious crush on the red headed new barista at his favourite coffee shop.
- I'm still working my way through this fic, but trust me when I say its a GEM
if u like pina coladas by @zephyrcove
Lily is desperate for a date to Petunia's wedding, James has been pining, and their friends meddle ;)
- explain to me how characters can be so perfect via texting fics?
Shelf Awareness by @ghostofbambifanfiction
It's too far out of her way and she's wasting so much money, but Lily can't help but return to the bookstore every weekend, where her passion for good literature has, perhaps, been unexpectedly reignited by the messy-haired, pun-making, rather handsome bloke who works there.
- you absolutely must know that I binge read this and then immediately REREAD it
How to win a witch in 10 days by @adenei
“She’s going to find some unsuspecting wizard, get him to fall for her, and then do all the things that turn men away to get him to break things off! Won’t it be the best way to see what witches do that drives men crazy?” But what happens when the man in question is a blast from Lily Evans's past? A Jily Magical AU based on the romantic comedy "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days."
- fic based off of a rom com? YES PLZ :’)
The Fight Before Christmas by @ghostofbambifanfiction
The heartwarming Christmas tale of Lily Evans and James Potter - two plucky kids who hated one other, until the day they really, really didn't.
- complete sucker for this one
All This Time by @thejilyship
James and Lily grew up next door to one another. Their bedroom windows giving them glimpses into the others life, and also offering prime opportunities to argue with each other over every little thing. They never figured out how to be friends when they were kids, but now that they've graduated from college and are home for the summer, they have a second chance to get things right.
- one of my favvvv tropes
Let Me Love You by @thejilyship
With only a month until she's set to take the throne of Gryffindor, Lily is informed that she'll have to get married or choose to give up her throne. She never thought she'd have to even entertain the idea of an arranged marriage. Enter, James Potter.
- cries in princess diares AU
The Fabulous Baker Brothers by @frustratedpoetwrites
Lily walks a different route home from work and stumbles upon a cute little Bakery with an even cuter baker in the window.
- yes yes yes to embarrassed pining.
Marigold Mornings by @mppmaraudergirl
This is a fun game she thinks, as she removes her hand from his side and reaches up to run it down his chest.  He catches her hand in his own, takes a step forward so that her nose nearly brushes against his shirt. She can feel the heat radiating off of him—or maybe it’s from her. He licks his lips and her eyes are drawn to the motion.  She knows it is a bad idea, absolutely knows it.
- incredible storytelling featuring dynamic characters :') a favvv
Welcome to Pettyville by@women-inthe-sequel @alrightginger
When Lily Evans accidentally sends a text to the wrong number, she isn’t expecting to find the right person behind it. She can’t stop talking to Prongs. The only thing is, Prongs can’t stop talking about the girl in his class. What could go wrong, other than the number?
- LOVE SQUARE ANYONE
The Kiss a Stranger Project by @alrightginger
“What’s your name, then?” she asks, realizing they haven’t even properly introduced themselves yet. She nervously crosses her arms.
You shouldn’t kiss a guy without knowing his name first.
Right?
- THIS ONE WILL LIVE IN MY MIND FOREVER

hi everyone ! i have missed this roleplay way too much & i hate school for making me miss out. if you guys don’t remember me from last year that’s okay ! anyways, i’m kiara, 19, & pst ! this is martzia, ritz, mar, riz...anything really. she is new ( not really ) & pretty much improved.  i forgot what i had from my previous intro so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯    i am making this one completely new with a few things from my last if i can even recall ideas i had. please send me some love, like this post so i can message you to plot or slide into my dms !
martzia woolridge / twenty-two /  nonbinary / socialite
— on the hottest day during the summer of 1995 in buenos aires, argentina maritza woolridge was born to jeff & valentina woolridge. jeff w is a famous film director ( basically tim burton, steven spielberg, chris columbus, & peter jackson ) from london who has won many academy awards, oscars...etc. while valentina is a retired fashion model ( such as cindy crawford & kate moss ) from argentina. 
— during maritza’s toddler years her father took a break from directing films to put his main focus on his family & raising their only daughter/child. they lived in argentina until she was old enough to start school. 
— at the age of four, her family moved to new york. & the first thing they see when they arrive is a mob of paparazzi & flashing lights. she didn’t understand what was going on at the time but no matter what she’d try talking to them & making comments like ‘no pictures’ & what not. 
— her father made his comeback with directing films & her mother became a stay at home mom. she had became one of the moms all dressed in a matching track suit, holding weights while taking a speed walk around the block. 
— maritza started school right when she moved to new york & it was hard at first since her english was broken but eventually she got the hang of it. throughout the years she became more known to the whole world just because of her parents’ names, basically the whole world has watched her grow up. even though people didn’t hesitate to take pictures of her, she didn’t mind. she wasn’t bothered by it, she didn’t care & continued to live her life. she was involved in many school activities such as student council, sports, clubs, & etc. she did a lot & she made the most out of each school year. 
— after she graduated high school, she became a model. just to try it out & she was successful: magazine covers, walked on high-end brands, vsfs, & much more. that career lasted about a year because she had grown tired of the busy schedule. now she basically does whatever she wants. she goes to charity events, models for brands from time to time, she does collabs w/brands, attend red carpets & award shows. she’s become your stereotypical socialite.
— maritza will probably be the most sweetest & softest person you’ll ever meet. she’s very selfless, always pits people & their problems before helping herself. she wants people to be happy & so that’s what she tries to do. she’s very caring & loyal, you can come to her & she’ll be the shoulder you cry on. or if you need anything or want to talk during 3 am she’ll wake up for you. she always sees the good in people, no matter what. she isn’t the type to hate so she doesn’t hate anyone, but if someone does have a problem with her she’d confront from or not acknowledge them ? she’s social, she likes social gatherings & meeting new people. she loves going out to parties or just hanging out. charismatic, free-spirited, charming, kind and laidback. 
—muse inspo: very serena van der woodsen ( gossip girl ), lana del rey songs ,savannah lynn curtis ( dear john ), holly golightly ( breakfast at tiffany’s ), elena gilbert & caroline forbes ( the vampire diares ),  cher horowitz ( clueless ),

Please Y’all
So since it looks like we’ll be getting Red Carpet Diaries in the near future (or idk man PB does that sometimes), Id just like to go ahead and say this again, as I know others have.
If Red Carpet Diares has Thomas Hunt in it as an LI, please tag your content. Please.
It’s super triggering for me and others, and I despise having panic attacks and shaking through the rest of my day and loosing sleep when all that could have prevented it was a tag that I had blacklisted but was not used by the post creator. Please tag your MC/Thomas Hunt content.
Please.

if your olivia, ellie, daenarya, and alex were to wear a haute couture to some formal event what style would they wear?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
More about each's style below the cut
Alex has a very classic Hollywood style. Although, she enjoys trying on the poofiest and most extravagant gowns just to tease Thomas, she always comes back to something more understated, which is what they both prefer. The two of them might not be the flashiest couple on the red carpet but they always pull focus with their natural beauty and charm.
Tumblr media
With her pale skin and vibrant red hair, Olivia tends toward neutral, light, and gold tones. She loves soft colors and patterns. She avoids bold statement dresses however Bryce convinced her to get a backless gold gown that he is particularly fond of. She felt self-conscious wearing it at first but with his arm around her and his quiet whispers of encouragement in her ear, it has become a favorite of both of them.
Ellie loves bold colors and long gowns. Blue is her favorite as it compliments Ethan's eyes when they match. Ellie doesn't dress up often, but when she does, she gets a boost of confidence. (Maybe it's just the way Ethan can't keep his eyes off her, but whatever it is, she loves it... she may find extra events and fundraisers for them to attend just to have an excuse to dress up).
Daenarya secretly loves attending balls and formal events. She'll complain about how inconvenient the dress is and how the lack of pockets is a major design flaw, but she enjoys feeling like a princess for the night. No matter how many events they attend, Mal is always amazed when he sees her cleaned up and dressed up for that first look. Most times it leaves him speechless, which only makes Daenarya love it even more.
Edit addition: Daenarya and Mal might add multiple pockets to her gowns... you know, to just borrow some things that won't be missed around the fancy snobby elves' estates lol Also they sneak out food and wine because Threep gets kicked out of parties so Daenarya brings him back treats.
Thanks for the ask! This was a lot of fun! 💖💖💖
(Sorry for the long post, I tried putting the images side by side but in the stream they're seperate)

Hollywood U or Red Carpet Diaries ??
ooo coming at me with the hard questions (I know this is like 3000 years late)
It's so difficult to choose just one. I love them both for different reasons.
I love Hollywood U because it is the original introduction to Thomas Hunt (and all the other characters I adore). It gives us so much more content than Choices did. I love being able to interact with the characters (go on dates, walk around, go to parties, etc). I love the customization and personalization that HWU allowed. I love so much about that canon storyline, the main quests, date quests, side quests and more. My only real hesitation with HWU is that I'm not a huge fan of professor/student relationships. I obviously love this one, but they're so tricky. And the age gap of possibly 14 years between them is a lot. Hunt is at least 35 and MC is at least 21. But the gap could have been greater. I aged Alex up so in my au they're only about 10-12 years apart.
I like the storyline of Red Carpet Diaries. I like the possibilities and potential the series had. I hate how PB squandered it. Thomas has 2 tiny cameos in book 1. I love Book 2 but I hate that Thomas is really only in the second half and to get to that section I have to reply the sexual assault which I don't love. Book 3 is a hot mess. I love it because it has more Hunt, but it still isn't enough and there are way too many plots. I appreciate that Hunt and MC are in a different situation here. The age gap remains but MC is older now. (I think Thomas is about 40+ given that it is set years after HWU. And MC is in her 20s+.) I still keep a 10+ year age gap between Thomas (40) and Alex (30), but they're both older and the relationship dynamic is different. Oh! and RCD gave us bearded!Hunt 😍
So I know none of that answers your question...
I guess if I have to pick one... from canon I'd say HWU, the story is far more cohesive and better written and developed. Hunt is at his most Hunt and he is honestly so so cute.
If I'm going with my writing, I prefer my Red Carpet Diaries universe. I feel like I've fixed some of the flaws with canon and created a beautiful life for Thomas and Alex. I love Bogart. I love the twins. And I love the future I see for them even after what I've written. It's why my RCD is far more extensive than HWU. But I do love writing HWU too.
So I love them both???
[All Thomas Hunt x Alex Spencer Masterlists]

Thank you to everyone who encouraged my last sketch. I think this one is better! I’m actually a little proud of it?! 🙈 
Today was just a bad day (one of the worst in a while). So many things went wrong… but the support and kind words you sent me yesterday encouraged me to stop crying in bed after work and get up and do something. So this is what I did. Still no writing, but there’s this. Enjoy… or ignore. 💖😘
