#She-Ra and the Princess of Truth

[bi-dykes]

I just think that best friends to lovers

[catras-breakup-song]

although i'd always been willing to accept in terms of possible redemption that catra's worst moment of villainy meant understanding the consequences of pulling the lever and opening the portal, i never realized her implied unawareness was a possible perspective to consider before.

it's certainly beneficial against arguments that she deliberately and methodically wanted to hurt as many people as she could like a heartless monster (as opposed to sheer desperation for reclaiming power & victory against the primary people who directly hurt her) ─ but to be fair, that absolutely was her explicit declaration after it'd already been done and she was sent even more downwards into a rage spiral within the alternate reality.

i think, at the plot's core, my main point is that everything would have been much different had catra been able to calculate her choices better ahead of time without the intense emotional triggers slamming back-to-back, despite her misguided efforts to somewhat move on. i have zero doubt she still would've been spiteful enough to cause damage, but reasoning with her could at least potentially be feasible.

i just needed to add commentary after throwing this giant image file out there and this is what works.

Ima Keep It Real With U Chief

Song by Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq

[caaaaaaaaaaaaaampbell]

The urge to write a canon divergence one shot (where on the second episode of she-ra, during the battle of Thaymor, instead of tazeing Adora, Catra tackles her and and they get in a really rough, really sketchy fight, like dirt in eyes, biting, cheap shots, all that, and then Bow and Glimmer show up and they aren't sure how to help without making it worse so they stay to the side, then Catra pins Adora down and threatens her, then Adora pulls her into a kiss and whispers "Please, just come with me." And Catra sits there, frozen for a moment, then the image of Shadow Weaver Darth Vader choking her and she mumbles "I can't." Thats all it takes for Adora to push her off and stumble towards Glimmer and Bow who attack Catra while Adora transforms and saves the village) is so real rn.

Include: Huntlow, Catradora, GaryMarshall(A.K.A. Gumlee), and Entrapta.

Blurb: Gary Prince, Marshall Lee, Hunter Noceda Park, Willow Park, Adora, Catra, and Entrapta finished their senior year. The seven(three couples and a curious dangerous nerd) went for a vacation at a seaside resort in Okinawa. A bartender-level selection of drinks™? Check. Seven flavors of Idiots with disaster waiting to happen™? Check. Four choices(or just psychological experiment about free will, temptation, and stupidity taking a form of trash vaca night)? Their choices.

The Game: Truth, Dare, Strip, or Drink. (Because Truth or Dare is even better with some spice).

My experiment on a wild ride fic.

Why I love Caitlyn Kiramman (S1 & 2)

Decided to write this just because... and well I've seen a few "why I hate Arcane Cait" so I am writing why I think she's awesome.

1. I am a sucker for misfit characters. When Cait meets Jayce in the rain and solidifies their relationship by admitting she's a misfit too, my heart was sold. Of course, many of the Arcane characters are misfits, but Cait because of her birth into high society runs against many of the expectations and beliefs of her station. She gives off Sherlock vibes when it comes to social interactions and her skill of deductions/sleuthing.

2. She's an excellent shot. There is something about a girl with a great aim that I love (Hunger Games Katniss is the first that comes to mind). My favorite shooting scenes are from S2 in the Jinx/Sevika skirmish and the final battle when she takes on a sniper role.

3. Noxian training montage. After being kidnapped, knocked out and almost choked out, it was about time Cait learned hand to hand to combat. While I would have loved a longer scene it was nice to see 60 seconds of her Mulan-esque training session.

4. Badass Disney princess/prince vibes. She had a heart of gold and was in the pursuit of justice and truth ever since her Season 1 convo with Grayson ("What are you shooting for young Kiramman?") Cait spends most of Season 1 defending or attempting to save others (i.e. Jayce, Vi, the people of Zaun). She is willing to listen when she is in the wrong (aka conversation with Ekko and the Firelights) or understand the experiences of those she knows little about.

5. Cait and Vi’s Slow Burn Romance. “Will they won’t they.” A Romeo & Juliet aka other side of the tracks romance. Opposites Attract. Again I am a complete sucker for this romance trope. Step Up. Mulan. The 100. She-Ra. Miles Morales and Gwen (Please never compare Jinx and Ekko just because the ethnics match. They are not the same.) You give me two unlikely characters who go through the ups and downs of life and then finally consummate that relationship. I am down HARD. I like the tension. The tennis match of love and hate until they finally figure out they are meant for each other. Cait and Vi could have made love in a tree and I still would have happily rewatched because their love was multiple little scenes of looks, nicknames, rescues, fights, a kiss, and “I am down bad,” shower scene. What’s not to like?

6. Cait’s Character Development. From the fires of tragedy, a naive, eager, idealistic, bright eyed Young Kiramman princess develops into an older, wiser, humble leader. 

To me, her arc is about the passage into adulthood. An examination of that age old question “What does it mean to be human?” As the years pass, Cait clung to Grayson’s words–essentially her why, her purpose. But what happens when that purpose is challenged or marred by reality, by pain, anger? 

Cait’s purpose is immediately challenged when she finds out the Enforcer sheriff is corrupt and almost kills her in order to hide his sins. While it’s clear, there is no love between the two, Marcus’s corruption and her confrontation with Ekko challenge her belief in a system she joined in her pursuit of justice. Immediately, after, she attempts to broker an agreement that will help Zaunites but the Council selfishly rejects her proposal. You know the rest of the story.

Hours later she is kidnapped, tortured by the sister of her crush. Then the same sister drops a bomb killing not only people she knew, but her mom. Then at the memorial, another attack occurs presumably from the same sister–Jinx. The Council is eager to annihilate Zaun, but Cait attempts to be a voice of reason while grieving. Then when she has a chance to kill Jinx she fails and pushes/hits her girlfriend away. She loses her brother, and the only council member who notices she’s struggling. Her father is MIA. A known genocidal general begins to manipulate her. 

In a matter of months, Cait’s purpose is crushed by tragedy and a need for revenge. In season 1, Silco states, “There’s a monster inside all of us.” Cait’s monster rears its ugly head as she dawns the evil cloak, broods in dark rooms (thank you ep 4 beginning montage) and embraces oppressive tactics to fulfill her new objective. Cait’s conflict is not just an external manifestation but an internal one. Will she let bitterness take over or will she stick to her values of justice, truth, and kindness? We know that she has not fully embraced Ambessa’s ideologies, as she is constantly questioning Ambessa directives. Her conversations with Singed and her decision to spy on Singed’s actions also show that internal war. Ultimately, it is the decision to help Vi and betray Ambessa that led back to Cait’s core. She didn’t need to make a Youtube apology video. She chose through her actions to get back to a new, healed version of her purpose. Her last words in S2  “Are you still in this fight?” are a reflection of Cait’s own journey–to rise from tragedy and her own mistakes to make a difference even when pain, challenges, evil can make the journey seem impossible. 

Cait said it best in Season 2’s final memorial, Our only consolation for every loss we found some good, some light, worth gaining, worth fighting for. And though we are doomed to revisit the error of our ways, spark ever more conflicts, our story isn’t over.

And this is why I love Cait because of what she represents. A strong female character with quirks. A sense of justice. Love. A closet full of demons. Transformation. Humanity. And Badass shooting skills.

[cartoonsbrainrot]

I love She-Ra and the Princesses of Power.

On this note, I would've loved if there was any fic/fan comic/anything really that took place maybe a good five years or so after the ending, in which Adam (He-Man) and Teela traveled to Etheria to find out how Horde Prime died (as news about the tyrant's demise spread across the universe) and they ended up meeting Adora and the others.

I mean, I never watched any He-Man related content, but I'd still like to see the "family reunion", you know.

In my mind, things would go something like this: the Eternians crash land in the middle of nowhere, they wander off for who knows how many hours, until they are found by the Horde clones (that are now citizens of Dryl) and are taken to Dryl to be "detained" until Queen Glimmer, Bow, Adora and Catra arrive to see what their deal is there.

And it'd be funny if Adam and Teela are greeted and "interrogated" by Princess Entrapta and her Prince Consort Hordak. They’re thinking that "perhaps Prime is still alive somehow and the clones are taking them to him", but that's the furthest thing from the truth. Though the scare they get from being greeted by Hordak on the throne is short-lived, as Entrapta pops down from the ventilation system.

Then, of course, there's the meeting between Adora and Adam and them finding out they're siblings. (And then trying to send a message home to Eternia to let the King and Queen know that their son isn't lost somewhere in space)

That's about as far as I've gotten with this silly idea.

[rulernogard156]

This story was written by the super talented and amazing @utterimmolation

"A Chance at Redemption."

The first thing Horus noticed was the quiet.

The Warp whispered, barked, *screamed* to him constantly these days. It was harder to hear himself anymore. The Gods told him secrets and truths, but his own thoughts became quieter and heavier. He was so much more nowadays, but there was a tiny gasp buried deep within that dared to murmur that he had only diminished.

He's gotten used to pushing that doubt away. The Gods assure him of the righteousness of his path, his legacy, his drive to see the False Emperor dashed from his ostentatious chair.

But here, on one of Etheria's twelve moons, standing across from his lone sister, his head is shockingly, disconcertingly ~~mercifully ~~, *quiet*.

The siblings study each other in silence for several moments. This is one of the least developed moons of the dozen, which is no doubt why Adora had chosen it. He briefly wonders if she had rigged it to blow or perhaps intends to repay him and his Sons in kind for Istvaan but dropping nuclear armaments from orbit but dismisses the idea. Adora can be surprisingly ruthless, but she would not dare risk damage to the moons and especially not Etheria and its people.

It is a character trait that makes her predictable but dangerous, much like Vulkan: their love of mortals makes them easy to maneuver, but strikes against them must be fast, hard and final, lest they rise again with greater and overwelming fury and unfortunately, that last part has proven remarkably difficult to overcome.

"You know why I am here," he finally breaks the silence.

Adora's mouth twists. "I do," she acknowledges.

"And?"

Adora takes a half step forward, her honor guard shadowing her every twitch, like children hiding behind their mother's skirts, unwilling to let her be parted from them. He hears Abaddon scoff quietly, his First Captain disgusted at the weakness he perceives.

Horus sees what it truly is. Love, beyond reason or doubt, beyond sense. The Sons of She-Ra love her, with such intensity that to lose her risks triggering a fury to rival that of Angron himself. Of course, perhaps that is not so surprising. The Slave of Nuceria hated so much only because he had once loved so fiercely and completely that its loss had stripped him of all humanity and rendered him little more than a beast.

"You come to me with a proposition. Let me give one instead: turn away from your Rebellion. Disavow the Chaos Gods. Disavow the Emperor. Disavow the butchers and sadists and monsters you've aligned yourself with. And stay here."

Horus blinks, surprised beside himself. An appeal to him hadn't been unexpected. An opportunity to be granted asylum had. "You would welcome me to Etheria?"

"You would have to pay penance. To even *begin* to pay for the crimes you've committed, the atrocities you've done... would take millenia. But you would be free and protected from both the Warp and the Emperor. I would stand with you. You could find redemption. Could help me build a universe of connectivity, communication...love. You could find peace." The Princess of Power slowly extended her hand. "You need only ask."

The voice that has been silenced and stifled for so long under the burning Gaze of Chaos is screaming at him now, louder than it's ever been. He is abruptly aware, for the first time in weeks, how grimy and heavy his armor feels, how hungry and thirsty and tired he feels. He...he cannot remember the last time he ate. Slept.

He looks past his sister, up at the distant glow of Etheria, and remembers the peace of the world. The smiles of children. The brotherhood of Space Marines, learning, training...living. He remembers being...happy.

He looks at his sister's hand, and his soul screams at him to take it.

He swings Worldbreaker instead.

It meets her golden shield in an explosion of rainbow Warp energy, and both Primarchs are pushed back several feet. Their respective sons stumble, and many fall.

Horus looks at her and sees only sadness and pity, and he feels a hate to rival that which he feels for his very Father.

Abaddon must give the order, as the Word Bearer ships and that of Etheria's fleet begin to fire at each other. Adora has her sword now and she's coming towards him but he ~~doesn't want to fight her~~ can't waste time now, not when the Emperor's gaze searches for him and Ultramar's fleets grow closer to reinforcing Terra.

He presses the teleporter on his belt and slams back into his quarters on the *Vengeful Spirit* only to fall to his knees as the protective aura of Etheria's territory disappears and the God's Gazes return to him with renewed focus and force. They see his doubts, his fears and they sooth him even as they shred at him for his impudence.

He does not know how long he kneels in his quarters, body, mind and soul wracked by agony. He only knows his fury is incandescent when a Son arrives to inform him the World Bearer fleet has been defeated and they are in-route to Mars. He dashes the Marine and two dozen serfs against the walls before the rages abates itself even slightly, and as he makes his way ti the bridge he promises himself this:

When the Emperor lies dead at his feet, he will return, with all of his forces, and lay waste to Etheria, until its seas run red, it's sky turns black and Adora's wife is nothing more than a new carpet before his bed.

[girl4music]

ADORA: “I don’t know what my destiny is anymore. But I know that my friends need my help. I guess I’ll just figure it out from there. Thanks for everything.”

See that’s it. A show that’s called “She-Ra AND THE PRINCESSES OF POWER” wouldn’t rely on a sword.

It’s about teamwork. Doing what you can when you can.

And doing it TOGETHER because we’re all in the fight.

No powerful weapon can ever be a supplement for that and I don’t like any kind of TV art/entertainment that tries to make that the truth about warriors and heroes because that’s very dangerous. Especially for children. I knew that a modern retelling of a beloved fictional female hero wouldn’t do that because heroes always need help and I love the moments when it’s the hero that needs to be rescued and they’re not made weak or wrong for it. When I see that, I know my attention and support is where it should be. Is where it needs to be.

Women empowerment is not about going at it alone.

The message should always be the you’re not alone because that’s one that does wonders for the soul.

WARNING THIS HAS SPOILERS FOR MONKIE KID SEASON 5

So since we have the new villain who is definitely Impiled to have a lot of importance to the story which is the nine headed beast

I decided to check abit about him to see if there is any info of him and in fact there is he was a villain of journey to the west and here is what we have

this is copy and pasted from the jttw wiki it says and I qoute

“ The Nine-Headed Beast also known as the Nine-Headed Prince Consort is married to Wansheng Dragon King's daughter. He is armed with a Crescent Moon Spade He collaborates with his father-in-law to steal the Śarīra from Golden Ray Monastery. Sun Wukong enlists the help of celestial forces to deal with the demons. The Nine-Headed Beast has one of his heads bitten off by Erlang Shen's celestial hound but manages to escape”

and for more info on the wansheng dragon king and the nine headed beasts wife is this

“The Wansheng Dragon King is based in Emerald Waves Lake Rocky Mountain Kingdom of Jisai He marries his daughter, Wansheng Princess, to the Nine-Headed Beast. He plots with his son-in-law to steal a Śarīra from the pagoda in Golden Ray Monastery in Jisai and release a rain of blood in the kingdom. Without the Śarīra, the pagoda loses its magical shine, and the king perceives the blood rain as an ill omen. He believes that the monks in the monastery are responsible for stealing the Śarīra and starts persecuting them. Sun Wukong uncovers the truth when he and his companions arrive in Jisai. The dragon king and his family are eventually killed by Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie. The Śarīra is returned to the pagoda”

“The Wansheng Princess is Wansheng Dragon King's daughter and the Nine-Headed Beast's wife. She stole the Nine Leaves Lingzhi Herb from the Queen Mother of the West. She is slain by Zhu Bajie”

he also seems to have two servants

“Benbo'erba and Babo'erben are two minions of the Nine-Headed Beast. Their respective forms are a sheatfish and a blackfish respectively. They stay at the top of the pagoda in Golden Ray Monastery after the Śarīra is stolen. Sun Wukong discovers them while cleaning the pagoda and captures them. He learns about the theft of the Śarīra from them”

so that’s what is seen so far he is practically a prince as he had married to royalty and his wife is practically dead- along with his father in law and such him being a prince does fit though due to his appearance and what his body language indicates

I hope in the English dub or sub we get info of him and we seen him more he is a really interesting character

(also side note is it just me or why would it feel like the character double trouble from she ra would fit for a English Va )

[catras-breakup-song]

yanno, i get the point behind the argument "you can disagree over opinions and still be friends, not human rights" but honestly i couldn't be friends with someone whose opinion is against catradora either, even though it's not harmful to anyone. it makes me so uncomfortable.

this goes for any of my beloved interests really, but that one is just so... personal. it would almost feel like an attack on me anyway. do you get what i mean?

[baggebythesea]

What glimmer and double trouble headcanons do you have ^-^?

Hoboy hoboy hoboy! Did someone ask about my favourite rarepair ships in all of spop?

Image commissioned from the highly talanted Must Love Frogs https://www.deviantart.com/mustlovefrogs

Glimmer likes someone who challenges her. Someone who can bite back. Someone she can spar with. Double Trouble fits that bill.

Double Trouble, on their side, likes a bit of resistance. Someone who calls them on their bullshit. A worthy opponent.

Their dance in S4 is full of give and take, challenge and rising to it. The interrogation scenes when Glimmer puts DT under the truth spell are just delicious. And those scenes culminated in what must have been an awesome behind-the-scenes moment when Double Trouble switched sides. What did Glimmer say to sway them? How did she deliver it? What kind of 'but how do you know you can trust me'? bullshit did DT pull?. It's so easy to see that kind of thing turn into real attraction.

But there is also a different side to it, where Glimmer craves not only the challenge, but the freedom. The open road. Someone to take her away from all the daily challenges of being high queen. And DT on their side actually enjoys the company of the spunky glitter queen. The way she makes them laugh. The way she makes them blush. The way they can laugh and have fun together.

In my headcanon their relationship is full of games and challenges. They make up new rules all the time. "You have to find the location for the next date from these clues." "You are not allowed to use your shapeshifting today." "If you can't make them let us into the theater for free, you're going as Flutterina tonight."

That makes them have a lot of fun on their dates, but it also puts up a wall between happy-fun-time and deeper intimacy. They genuinely like each other, but they have built their entire relationship on "just one more date", "we each have our own life" "this is just some fun" "we don't owe each other anything"... which adds some delicious angst.

Glimmer and Double Trouble, the way I envision them, have tons of chemistry, lots of fun, but not necessarily a happy ending. They are both too invested in their life style (Glimmer as monarch, DT as vagabond) to want to compromise it. Neither of them feel the need to be exclusive, which means that they both build lives and relationships without the other. They fear that deeper commitment would prove that they are incompatible, which would ruin the fun they have in their string of dates, so they stop themselves from taking the next step. Even when they really want to.

Flirty, fun, spicy and challenging, but with undertones of melancholy and restriction. That's the way I like Glimmer Trouble. I have written a few fics for them, and have more on the way.

Thanks for a lovely ask

She-Ra | Defiance CH19: Slow

Scorpia goes to Duncan and he stays with her while she faces the truth of the Horde - and Shadow Weaver. Adora emerges from darkness and begins to face her fears about herself, who she doesn't want to become, and what Shadow Weaver might want her to be.

Adora has a few more chapters coming up here and there before we get to the end of the arc - which pretty much just her.

Next week, we start the sequence of chapters ending with Catra's coronation. After those, we move into (hopefully) another side-story, and then into the last chapter or two before the first major time skip.

Then the second major time-skip, a few chapters of Catra being a princess, a princess of crime, and trying to solve the world's problems with infrastructure and beaches. Adora will get some appearances in the time-lapse phase of the story.

Then - the endgame for the arc. Once we finish this arc of the story, we will be rushing headlong towards the two meeting up.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I am surprised how much Catra I've written. I really did expect this story to be mostly Adora and Scorpia and Duncan, but it's become the inverse. Adora's story will pick up the pace quite a bit at the end of the arc and as we move into the second arc of the story.

I'm actually very excited about it.

I continue to write away at this fic, and I am constantly surprised at the things I discover myself writing and some of the things that crop up. Not just in my comment threads, which have been fabulous - but in terms of how much of my own planning and worldbuilding I'm getting to use. I had figured this would be one of those stories where I use less than half of what I create, but I'm using almost all of it.

The next (planned) side-story is me cleaning up and posting another outtake, similar to Arguments & Apple Candy, in which I wrote something I liked a fair bit, but it really didn't fit with or would slow down the rest the of the fic.

In this case - Catra's first birthday in Halfmoon.

Other writing notes:

The fourth installment of Red Creme Fizz is and remains 'nearly' done, but I keep falling on my face with the ending. I'll be taking another swing at it after I write this (which is written well before posting hour each week, because I'm a chronic over-preparer and hate having to write things at the last minute.)

For those who care, I will be posting my first Babylon 5 fic as part of the WIP Big Bang. One scene left to go. The hardest, of course.

The fifth installment of Red Creme Fizz is underway and will (hopefully) provide my Catradora shippers with love for me and inspire patience for what's coming in Defiance.

As we approach the end of the year, I will have to spend a bit of time finishing up a few other things. one of which I hope to write fairly quickly and on the DL. It's more done than not, and I feel like it will be a fun story for fandom (some of) my followers will know, but most will not.

As always, thank you to all my readers and all my commenters, and all the people who support me on the journey Defiance has become. Because it has been a journey. I started this story in March 2024 with the idea of writing a 90k fic about Princess Catra and Adora finding each other again.

While I certainly *have* done that, I have done far, far more than I thought I would, and I am looking forward to everything that's going to come out of this story.

[ultravioletqueen]

Hace mucho tiempo que escucho canciones del musical de heathers y mi favorita de todas es "i say no" ya que es cuando verónica reconoce que no hay nada que hacer con jd,reconoce que el no va a cambiar y que no vale la pena estar con alguien que la usa como excusa para hacer cosas malas,simplemente me encantan estas escenas en las que los personajes confrontan a sus parejas abusivas y reconocen que merecen algo mejor.

Ahora últimamente he vuelto a consumir contenido de she-ra y las princesas del poder y me doy cuenta de que ODIO EL CATRADORA Y TODO LO QUE TENGA QUE VER CON CATRA.

¿En que se relaciona esto con la canción de heathers i say no? Simple,esta canción es el ejemplo perfecto de como pudieron manejar la "relación" de catra y adora al final,catra es irredimible y adora merecía decirle sus verdades en la cara,solo dejaré la letra algo modificada para este escenario ideal que tengo de adora dejando a catra en el polvo por todo lo que le ha hecho pasar,no planeo traducir la letra al español porque sino sonaría muy raro.

Para esto me inspire en los post de @spop-romanticizes-abuse y @anti-catradora-collection

I have been listening to songs from the Heathers musical for a long time and my favorite of all is "I Say No" since it is when Veronica recognizes that there is nothing to do with JD, she recognizes that he is not going to change and that he is not worth being around with someone who uses her as an excuse to do bad things, I just love these scenes where the characters confront their abusive partners and recognize that they deserve better.

Now lately I've been consuming She-Ra and the Princesses of Power content again and I realize that I HATE CATRAdora AND EVERYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH CATRA.

How does this relate to Heathers' song I Say No? Simple, this song is the perfect example of how they were able to handle Catra and Adora's "relationship" in the end, Catra is irredeemable and Adora deserved to tell her truths to her face, I will only leave the lyrics somewhat modified for this ideal scenario that I have for Adora Leaving Catra in the dust for everything she's put her through, I don't plan to translate the lyrics into Spanish because otherwise it would sound very strange.

I was inspired by the posts of @spop-romanticizes-abuse and @anti-catradora-collection

(Adora)

"You are a drug

You are a poison pill

I’ve got to kick this habit now

Or else I never will

I hated the rush

When you would hold me close

And you will not be satisfied

Until I overdose

This is it

Hit the brake

I am finally awake

Let me be

Let me go

You need help

I can’t provide

I am not qualified

This troubled teen is getting clean

I say no"

(Catra)

"Adora, who else is gonna be-"

(Adora)

"No, no, no, no!

Don’t say a word

You speak and I cave in

You’ll twist the truth again

And drill deep down beneath my skin

You said you’d change

And I believed in you

But you’re still using me to justify the harm you do

This is it

Hit the brake

Call it all my mistake

Long as you let me go

You need help

I can’t provide

I’m not your friend

You’re not mine

It’s not too late

I’m getting straight

I say no!

Blame your childhood, blame shadow weaber

Blame the life you never had

But hurting people? That’s your choice, nobody to blame

But I believe that love will win

And hate will earn you nothing in the end

This is the end!"

(Catra,pulling out her claws)

"But I love you!"

(Adora)

"You-

This is it!

I won’t cry

Starting now, I will try

To pay back

All the karma you owe!

Start again

Somewhere new

Far from monsters like you

So goodbye

'Cause now I'm

Saying no!

Just in time!

I say no!

Somehow I’m saying no!

Just say no!

I say no!

No!"

Go for it! People should write whatever they want however they want :)

First fandom you wrote for?

Undertale, aaaaages ago back on fanfiction.net and wattpad lmfao

Favorite Fic you’ve ever written?

Hmm. I know it's cliche but probably Not Wanting To Admit The Truth (Undertale), or Will You Be My Valentine? (Undertale)

Tagging no one, if you see this and wanna do this, go ahead!
