broke: using AI to write fic

woke: slowly luring your friend into your fandom over the course of 18 months and then casually sharing a concept extremely tailored to your shared taste and going “oh but i’ll never have time to write it myself, oh woe, oh alas” and they finally give in and start writing the 100k epic while you reap the benefits

5. Do you respond to comments?

I do when it’s a fic I’m still excited about! Especially ones I’m actively posting

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

I’m… not sure I ever let anything end on an angsty ending?

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Probably Leave the Light On just by contrast with everything that came before the end

8. Do you get hate on fics?

For about ten.7 seconds I was writing fic for Once Upon a Time and it is the only time I’ve ever gotten hate on fics and i removed said fics from ao3 and don’t write in that fandom anymore

9. Do you write smut?

The answer to this question used to be “no haha well maybe like every once in a while” but like. Considering I posted an E rated chapter this very morning, I cannot equivocate about that anymore

10. Craziest crossover?

“It’s time to get on the ferry and say goodbye!”

To Coupeville?! Which is even smaller than Port Townsend?!

I am enjoying Dead Boy Detectives so far for several reasons, but it is absolutely cracking me up that it takes place in Port Townsend, WA.

Like. There are all of 10,000 people there. “Get on a ferry and go away.” Okay?? The Port Townsend ferry goes to Whidbey Island and not even the populated part of Whidbey Island it’s like the middle of fucking nowhere. You then have to drive an additional forty minutes in either direction to get to Deception Pass or the Clinton ferry to get back to the mainland.

I cannot emphasise enough that Port Townsend (while adorable and a place I like!!) is… nawt big enough for the story they’re telling lol

every so often, you just have to come to terms with the fact that timothy omundson is extremely handsome, and he tricked you into forgetting. again. bc he's actually a fantastic character actor who exclusively plays tools.
