#sorry that got... long

[lunastarhawk]

I am privileged to be your #6 and we have talked through several of these over the years! But I want to pick your brain on:

#7, #13, #18, and #24

I’m also tossing #56 at you. I have plenty of nice things to say about your writing, but I want you to something nice about your writing ❤️

Oooh questions! (To this ask game)

I'm gonna answer 6 first even though you didn't ask it because... Excuse me ma'am you're not just a beta, you're the VIP MVP and if the question is how important are you to the process, the answer is there would be no process. So. There. <3

7. How do you choose which pov to write from?

For the general pov I just... really don't like 1st person. I did it for my first Arcana fics because The Arcana itself is 1st person. 2nd person just feels... wrong. "Y/n" can get in the bin. I much prefer 3rd because I can narrate the character as well as see their perspective, and it's easier to change pov between characters. It seems mad to me now that I ever considered writing ToM as 1st person.

When it comes to the characters, I tend to alternate povs, and usually it just feels obvious from what part of the story I want to tell. Sometimes I don't want to know what a person's perceiving, I want someone else to perceive them. Aside from that, it's either "hmm I wonder what that one's thinking right now", or it's whoever shouts "MY TURN" at me the loudest.

13. What's a common writing tip you almost always follow?

Er. I'm not very good at taking advice or tips (see also my answer to 24 lol). I just make it up as I go along. If anyone ever gave "wing it" as a writing tip, I follow that one.

18. Do you title your fics before, during, or after the writing process? How do you come up with titles?

Titles are my nemesis. Occasionally I come up with a good one in advance, like the two I've got for ToM's endings. Most commonly, I get the whole thing tagged and saved as a draft on AO3 and still don't have a title. I tend to read through the story and see if a line or quote jumps out that can be used. If I get desperate I'll resort to song lyrics.

24. Worst writing advice anyone gave you?

'Write what you know.' I know nothing, my stories would be blank pages.

But in general I'm kinda bad at taking advice or tips or whatever. I'm just watching the little people running around in my head, and writing what they're doing. If I was to get bogged down by the dos and don'ts and rules and things I have to think about, I'd lose heart and then I'd lose my story. Whether fan fiction or original work, I write for me, for fun, from my heart, and if my heart wants to wing it with no outline, no structure, forget adjectives, use run-on sentences, too many semi-colons and start sentences with And or But, who's gonna stop me huh. Who.

56. What's something about your writing that you pride yourself on.

First of all, how dare you.

Okay let's see... I guess I can take pride in actually finishing things (yes yes I see you side-eyeing ToM after more than two years, but slow and steady wins the race innit). Maybe I can take pride in the fact that ToM is taking so long because it's frickin novel trilogy length at this point.

I do like how I write character interaction and relationships tbh. If I can read it like banter between two mates down the pub who also happen to be deeply in love and horny for each other, I'm happy.

But specific to fan fiction, what I'm most proud of is that I've written canon characters true to their character, and especially their voice. I've had enough people tell me they like how I write Julian that I can be proud of that. It's important to do him justice, ya know?

And I'm proud of Altheia and Favian tbh. And some of my other secret OCs. My home grown blorbos. I love them to bits and pieces so I should take pride in them too tbh.

Yeah. Character voice and sassy, teasing, loving banter. I can be proud of that.

And as a whole, I'm actually proud of Tides of Memories :)

Leo learns something about himself 🏳️‍⚧️

Based roughly on this old post.

Bonus:

[Leo is taking the fact that he was born biologically female simultaneously very well and also not so well but overall he’s mostly coping with the fact that it was Draxum that just essentially gave him the turtle equivalent of ‘The Talk’.]

[arcade-confetti]

Being someone who read Under The Red Hood and came out with the firm belief that, for Jason, it's not about killing Joker, it's about Jason wanting proof Batman would choose him over the Joker (bc shelia chose the joker). Makes seeing any other media where it's all about just wanting the Joker dead is a teeny bit frustrating. to be honest

Jason could've killed the Joker himself, really, really easily. Jason kidnaps the Joker before the confrontation. I can't open my comic for a reference right now, but it felt like he had the Joker for quite a bit before the confrontation. He had him. He beat him up with a crowbar. He had every single opportunity to kill the Joker himself, but he didn't because that wasn't his goal. Make no mistake, he did plan for the Joker to be dead by the end of it, but do you see what im trying to say here

Edit: If I knew this post was gonna get 1000+ notes I would've tried to word it better or something, this was a rant I made on the way to the grocery store 😭

It's not about making Batman kill either. When Batman says he won't kill, Jason adjusts and goes, 'Let ME kill the Joker or kill me to stop me' instead. The test is all about Batman choosing him. The whole final confrontation is Jason's first death again. The parent, The Joker, and the explosives. It even ends with Jason unable to move as a bomb goes off right next to him again because the parent didn't choose Jason. And instead tried finding an option that'd benefit them and (consequencely) letting the Joker walk, again, lol, lmao <-in agony
