๐because I'm curious
๐คbecause I need some
โจbecause you deserve it, queen
Rnskdkdo gosh, I feel so special ๐ญ๐๐ thank you so much for the ask!!! Sorry this is another long one lol, but I hope you enjoy, these were fun!
๐ What made you start writing?
Oh gosh, I've been writing since I was 13 I think lol, so a little hard to say ๐๐ I've always had a really strong imagination I suppose, so when I'd consume a new type of media or "fandom" I always wanted to do so much more with the characters then what little I was given on the TV screen, so I started writing my own adventures for them :D
And look at me now ๐๐๐ป
๐ค Advice for new writers?
Well I did answer here technically lol, but I do love to pretend I'm all that when it comes to writing, so I can drop another tip ๐๐
I feel like maybe this kind of relates back to the original answer I gave? but typing out a characters inner thoughts can be just as important as writing out their dialogue, ESPECIALLY if you're dealing with a particularly complex, or even disturbed, character. Yes yes, it helps build atmosphere and prose in your writing, but more importantly it gives us as the reader a chance to relate to or at the very least, understand said character and their feelings/motivations
How much or how little you let us peer into a character's psyche depends on how much you want us to either hate or else emphasize with the character, after all. For example Sabretooth, when written to his fullest, is an extremely disturbed individual of course- he doesn't see people or lives, he sees objects to maim and destroy. Killing is fun for him, and the bloodier the better.
You could only frame his mindset about killing for fun and not seeing people as people to make us despise him- that way we feel our emotional investment is paid off if/when he is defeated later on. On the other hand, sabretooth kills and hates people (*cough*humans) because he was severely and horrifically abused, even tortured tbh, as a child so invoking information like that and certainly his own memories of those times could be used to make us feel sympathy for him instead, if that's what you wanted.
Either way, it's all about getting your readers to feel- and no better way then to get your character to tell us what they're REALLY thinking by putting us in their heads ๐๐ป
โจ Complement your own work, mwahahaha
Smskslsls another hard one ๐ญ๐ Well a little secret of mine is that I will basically never write about a situation or story unless either I myself have experienced it, I witnessed someone in my personal life experience it, or I have taken the adequate time to become EXTREMELY familiar with the circumstances surrounding what I'm writing- simply bc I strive to write as realistic as possible for my readers
I guess I do like that a lot about my writing lol. Often times I'll read other fics, particularly reader inserts, and it just feels extremely obvious (to me at least) that the person writing it has never experienced, or at least never closely studied, the emotional situation they're writing about. It immediately triggers this very intense case of "real people do not and furthermore, would never, act this way in these circumstances" and pulls me out of the story you know?
So yeah, I'm proud that I pour out my heart and soul to try (with over all success, I'd dare say) my utmost to make sure my readers never get that jarring feeling while reading my work

For our lovely ex libris librarian and devilishly handsome professor Boba:
Who wakes up early/Who sleeps in late?
How often do they say โI love youโ?
What songs remind you of their relationship?
How do they say โI love youโ non-verbally?
Whoโs the better chef? Do they cook for the other?
How do they feel about having kids? Are they in agreement?
Ship ask game
Hehehe devilishly handsome is right because I'd sell my soul to him any day (as well as a bunch of other parts of my body, ANYWAYS)
This got long so the rest is under the cut ๐
2. Who wakes up early/Who sleeps in late?
Miss ma'am is definitely the later sleeper lmao. She does not understand the point in getting up at the ass crack of dawn like her boyfriend but does appreciate that it means that she often gets breakfast in bed on the weekends (followed by dessert of course ๐)
Boba has always been an early riser by necessity and habit, but now he enjoys waking up early and enjoying the warm intimacy of his princess sleeping next to him. The way she seeks him out even in her sleep positively melts his heart ๐ฅบ
7. How often do they say โI love youโ?
Due to the fact that Boba doesn't feel as comfortable expressing his emotions verbally, library princess doesn't say it as often as she would normally because she doesn't want him to feel pressured to say it back. In tender moments or times Boba needs reassurance, however, she will whisper her love to him as many times as he needs to hear it.
Boba wishes he could more easily verbally tell his princess how much he loves her even though she tells him that the way he cares for her says it all for him. Also he'd rather die than admit it but he's tried practicing saying it in the mirror to get more comfortable doing it ๐ญ
15. What songs remind you of their relationship?
I really need to sort through my Ex Libris playlist and post it but for the dramatic angsty choice for how Boba feels, there's Angel by the Weeknd (don't @ me about the Weeknd I know I'm basic ๐). But for the more upbeat, joyful way Boba makes his princess feel there's Heaven is a Place on Earth by Belinda Carlisle
27. How do they say โI love youโ non-verbally?
Lawd where do I even begin with this one sdfjsljflsk because there are so many ways ๐ฅบ
Boba shows his love rather than says it so the ways he communicates his love for his princess is endless: filling up her car's gas tank and adding air to her tires before she wakes up on the weekends, walking on the car/road side of the sidewalk, and watching her favorite show with her even though he has no idea what any of it means (and if were up to him, all her bills would be paid and she'd worry about nothing except being happy but he respects her desire to be independent).
Princess puts flowers in his home and office to brighten the space, reserves new research materials she thinks he would find interesting/useful, and forces him to slow down and take care of himself instead of pushing himself all the time (for example, enticing him into a hot bath after a long week by sauntering into his home study with nothing on but a smile).
Another very important way the two of them communicate their love is through their time in the bedroom. Exploring their BDSM relationship builds and reaffirms their trust and allows them to physically and verbally show their love for each other in new ways as they strive to make each other feel amazing. It also allows them to be their most vulnerable selves in a safe and loving environment.
28. Whoโs the better chef? Do they cook for the other?
Boba can cook but he's used to being more utilitarian with his meals while princess is all about saucing it up to make a meal fun. She likes to cook and enjoys making them a home-cooked meal on the weekends (not in the least because it drives Boba wild to see her all domestic in the kitchen ๐คญ)
Boba is not all practicality when it comes to meals, though. He makes a killer breakfast because quote "breakfast is important ๐" (iykyk hehe) and because it's another way he can spoil his beloved.
36. How do they feel about having kids? Are they in agreement?
They haven't seriously talked about it yet in their relationship as far as the Ex Libris story itself goes, but neither of them are opposed to children one way or another but hoo boy does that breeding kink jump out of Boba sometimes sksksksksk

dad!greg thoughts? i can see him enthusiactically asking every question his kid has once they hit the "but why?" phase in their development! also can you imagine him showing off his precious child to everyone in the office? he'd be bragging about how cute and smart they are! and his wall is now littered with drawings and paintings!
SCREAMING!!!!! ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
greg will answer every single question. and heโll answer it after actually giving a lot of thought to his answer - he wonโt just say anything! itโs important to him to spend time with his babies and explain to them everything they want to know about life! bc he knows they havenโt been alive for that long so itโs normal that theyโre so curious about everything ๐ญ so even if it gets annoying heโll still smile and answer to them and then give them a huge kiss on their cheek <33333
thatโs why they ADORE him!! their dad is their hero who knows eveeeeeerything ๐ฆ heโs soooo smart ๐ฏ they talk about him all the time at school and paint pretty pictures for him all the time ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ and they always end up on your fridge and on his office walls <33
your babies loooove going to their dadโs office ๐ญ bc this means more time with their daddy ๐ฅน๐ฅน๐ญ you bring greg lunch and bring your cute kids with you <3 and as soon as he hears his secretary announce itโs his family visiting he gets the biggest grin on his face ๐ฅน๐ฅน๐ฅน๐ฅน
he shows your babies off to EVERYONE!!! bc theyโre adorable and smart and cute and beautiful and heโs obsessed with them ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ and your kids donโt really know whatโs going on but theyโre happy to be involved <3333

gamma!!! ๐ฅบ i just wanted to say ily and i hope youโre having a magnificent dayโi notice youโve collected a new little guy ๐ do you have any ideas about his dynamic with lily?? iโd love to hear if possible!!
have a great rest of your day my friend!!! ๐ฅฐ๐๐๐
HELLOHELLO!!! ILY TOO!!๐ญ๐๐๐๐ I'M HAVING A GOOD DAY TODAY, HOW ABOUT YOU?! I HOPE ALL IS WELL!!
Ah, so you wanna know about Duke and Lilly and their dynamic, eh? Well, in that case, get comfy and help yourself to the complementary snacks!โ๐ฐ๐ช๐ฉ๐จ
Now, what do you get when a goodhearted, ex-jewel theif duck and a sweet, figure skating swan fall for each other?
A couple of SIMPS, apparently.
Duke, like the closeted nerd he is, aspires to be nothing short of Lilly's knight in shining armor. Should she ever get into any trouble, he's the first one to swing into battle, sword drawn and smiling all the way.
And that goes both ways.
Lilly, though not QUITE as daring as him, would gladly throw herself into ANY fight if it meant defending her man, his friends, OR his honor. She's a very sweet girl, but the moment Duke is brought into something, the gloves come off.
They both know the pains the other has gone through, and they'd be damned if they let ANYONE add any more.
They just love each other so much!๐ญโค
Duke is also a TOTAL FLIRT. He practically has an entire arsenal of pet names and pick-up lines stashed away just for her. The sillier the pick-up line, the better! He loves seeing her face turn pink as she laughs at him. โบ Lilly gets flustered really easilly, too, so it's a double win for him! These two just have a good time ALL the time! They just want to laugh and admire each other.๐

Always happy to share my knowledge on greek insults! ๐๐๐
Sofi pretty much covered all of the basics so im gonna go with :
-"ฮ ฮฟฯ
ฯฮฌฮฝฮฑฯ ฮณฮนฮญ" which translates to "son of a whore"
-"ฮฮฟฯ
ฮฝฯฯฮฑฮฝฮฟ" which translates to "rag made of cunt" and its used for someone who is very much of a proxy and obnoxious
-"ฮฮท ฮผฮฟฯ
ฯฯฮฎฮถฮตฮนฯ ฯฮฑ ฯฮฑฯฮฑฯฮนฮฑ" which is the same as " dont bust my balls"
And last
-"ฮฃฯฮฟฮฝ ฯฮฟฯฯฯฮฟ ฮผฮฟฯ
ฮปฮฟฯ
ฮปฮฟฯฮดฮนฮฑ ฮบฮฑฮน ฮณฯฯฯ ฮณฯ
ฯฯ ฮผฮตฮปฮนฯฯฮตฯ" which translates to "flowers on my dick and bees all around it" and its used to express the person's complete disdain and indifference to an event
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THA- ๐๐๐๐๐
