20. Any ships which you surprised yourself by liking?
A few, yeah. DCJ, wincest, wincestiel, just to name some.
21. What was the first fanfic you ever wrote?
This one! It was way back before I even really understood tagging or how to fanfic but I wanted something on my Ao3 so this is what happened. It’s awful lol.
27. What do you hate more: Coming up with titles or writing summaries?
Both suck but I think I hate titles more. Summaries are just “X happens to Y and oooh, mystery!” but titles are supposed to make the readers want to read it and summarize what the whole point is and it’s a mess. Fuck titles.
46. If someone was to read one of your fanfics, which fic would you recommend to them and why?
Oh boy. Um… it depends on what you’re into.
If you don’t mind taboo relationships, Some Things Last is probably my current favorite. I think, in an odd way, it’s a love letter to my anxiety. I know that sounds strange and anxiety really isn’t any fun but this fic was heavily influenced by my own anxiety and my struggle with self-destructive behaviors. It’s not like a “I’m glad I have anxiety” thing, but more of a “this is what it feels like” kind of thing and I’m very proud of it.
If you’re not into that I’d say Forget-Me-Not is another one I’d recommend. I still love this one. It’s about grief and living through that. It’s also megstiel, which is still one of my favorite ships. I had feelings about the way things ended and I just needed to write them, so this is what happened.
And, this will make you happy, Tori, but Cat’s Cradle is another one I think showcases some of my strengths. It’s not my favorite fic but I think I’ve done a pretty good job with it. I really like the way I’ve unraveled the world and the relationship between Sam and Cas. It’ll be finished by the end of the week, so if you’re concerned about reading a WIP you shouldn’t be.
Thanks!
Ask thingys if you still wanna.
