19, 21, and 23?

19. What’s the thing you hate most about your fandom?

The infighting, man. God, I hate the infighting. If it’s not ship wars it’s witch hunts hellbent on driving writers and artists out of fandom. I don’t know how many times I can say “You’re all horny nerds, get over it” before I lose my mind tbh.

21. What are your thoughts on crackships?

Love ‘em! Ship all the things!

23. Unpopular character that you love?

For SPN it’s definitely Ketch. I always thought he was fascinating and fun to play with and I was very pleased with the sudden influx of people who stopped hating him last season. Still wish he was more popular, though.

SW, it’s Kylo Ren. Not super unpopular in my current circles but he does draw plenty of ire. Still love him to death, though.

for tropes how about: fake dating and historical au

Fake Dating 

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

Who doesn’t love fake dating with real feelings? You get all the pining of not dating and all the domesticity of established relationships. It’s the best of both worlds. 

Historical AU

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

As a former history major I think I’m obligated to enjoy historical aus.

Thanks! 
Trope Rates! 

Time travel and reincarnation? Do those count as tropes?

Time Travel

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

I’m not opposed to it, it’s just not something I really look for. I think it could be fun, though, especially if it got angsty. 

Reincarnation

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

I’m a huge fan of the idea of lovers who keep finding each other in multiple lives because they’re just not getting it right. I haven’t previously had the opportunity to do it but as a concept I love it. 

Thanks!
Trope Rates! 

Two different tropes for the rating game? Tentacles and Only One Bed :) :)

Tentacles

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

Anytime, anyplace, I am always down for tentacles. 

Only One Bed 

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

Bring on the arguing about who’s gonna sleep on the floor, the wall of pillows, and the inevitable awkward cuddling in the morning. 

Thanks! 
Trope Rating!

Your turn! Writing ask game. 1, 4, and 18? (I meant to do this earlier but I’m at work and I have had to squeeze things in between patients).

No worries, work comes first. 

1) How old were you when you first starting writing fanfiction?

Uh…. 22 I think? I don’t really remember but it’s been pretty recent. I’ve been writing fiction forever but I didn’t start with fanfic until I got tired of writing and getting nothing out of it. Workshop groups are hard to come by and getting lots of rejection letters sucks so I decided to do fanfic for the interaction, mostly. 

4) What is your favourite genre to write for? 

I guess urban fantasy? Magic is real and everyone may or may not know about it but it’s a big part of the MC’s life. Usually there’s a mystery or some kind of complication or nonsense. A lot of my fics have magic or magical creatures as a big element. 

18) Do you have any abandoned WIP’s? What made you abandon them?

I have two abandoned WIPs. One I just… didn’t really have a plot for so I quit writing it. The other I actually wanted to finish but I got angsty about not updating it after my self-imposed deadline so I just… kinda froze. I’m trying to get better about that, though. 

Thanks! 
Writer Asks!

44, 48, 50 :)

44) What is the last line you wrote?

“I… I dunno. I’m not really a sports person.”

From All That Glitters, an unpublished WIP

48) What’s your favourite trope to write?

Probably polyamorous relationships. There’s a lot more to explore when you have three people trying to make a relationship work what with their different personalities and needs and relationship dynamics. I just enjoy playing with them.

50) If you could write only angst, fluff or smut for the rest of your writing life, which would it be and why?

Angst 100%. Gimme conflict, man! I’m not really great at fluff and smut is painful to write sometimes, but angst is right up my alley. 

Thanks!

PLEASE?!?!?! OH PLEASE OH PLEASE?!?!?!

This looks like fun!!!

FinnRose! (Also I apparently can’t comment on your posts any longer?)

who’s the werewolf and who’s the hunter
Finn is the werewolf who’s just trying to live a peaceful life and Rose is the scrappy little hunter. 
who’s the mermaid and who’s the fisherman
Finn is a fisherman who hates fishing and wishes he could do anything else. Rose is a curious mermaid who’s always been in the weird two-legged creatures that visit her lagoon. 
who’s the witch and who’s the familiar
Finn is a green witch and Rose is his familiar. 
who’s the barista and who’s the coffee addict
Finn is the chipper barista and Rose is only addicted to coffee because she’s been working late nights to finish her masters in PoliSci. 
who’s the professor and who’s the TA
Rose is the professor and Finn is not her TA, he’s the TA of one of her colleges who teaches military history. They have lunch and she gives Finn a crash course in economics (which he eventually ends up studying on his own to try to impress and keep up with her. Little does he know she’s already very taken with him). 
who’s the knight and who’s the prince(ss)
Finn is a knight, charged with guarding Princess Rose. Little does he know the squire he’s been training with is actually the Princess in disguise. 
who’s the teacher and who’s the single parent
Finn is a single dad who hasn’t been on a date since his son was born. Rose hasn’t been on a date since…. well she’s lost track. Perhaps their discussions of whether or not Finn’s son, Michael, needs specialized tutoring could lead to something more?? 
who’s the writer and who’s the editor
Finn’s a writer struggling to get a handle on the craft and Rose is a no-nonsense editor who bleeds pages with her trust red pen. Finn’s convinced she has it out for him, but really Rose thinks he’s got amazing potential. 

Also, I don’t know why you can’t reply to my posts. I checked but I have it on. Is anyone else having that issue?
