16 & 17 for the ask game :)

16. Is there a ship that made you realize something about yourself? 
Hmmmm. That’s kind of a hard question I think because to me the answer is yes, all of them. Maybe I’m a little over-analytical, but I feel like every ship has some kind of core attraction that draws a person in for whatever reason. For a ship like megstiel, for example, it’s this kind of “opposites attract, there’s a little good in the bad girl and a little bad in the good guy” kind of thing that I think pulls me in. So like, looking at that, I suppose it shows me that I like the idea of people coming together and bringing out better qualities in each other. 

I think there’s something in every ship I enjoy that says something about me. I love interesting character dynamics, so maybe that’s what I realized. 

17. Is there a type of ship you always go for? 
Oh yes. Drama and angst are pretty much a must. I love stories where there’s something huge keeping lovers apart, whether that’s a war or physical space or even one character’s personal issues. I love love stories where characters have to compromise with each other, where the can be better (or worse) people because of each other, and where they’re just not quite allowed to be together for whatever reason. Of course, I’m a huge sap so I want to see them overcome their adversities and get together in the end, but I want them to earn it. 

Thanks! 

Ship asks! 

for the ask thingy… 2 & 15 for Under the Surface :)

2: What scene did you first put down?
The first scene, the one with Dean in the boat was the first scene I wrote. I tend to write in a linear way. 

15: What did you learn from writing this fic?
Well, for one, I learned that I could actually finish a WIP and write over 40k! I hadn’t done that before and I was really proud of that. 🙂 
I also brushed up a little more on my knowledge of pirates and learned some of the technical names for parts of a pirate ship! 

Thanks!
