Merry Christmas @blueflyingturtleontheway! I hope you have a nice, relaxing day! :D

[lieutenant-amuel]

Waiiit I now realized I never asked you, if you're still doing it, top 5 fanfiction you've read?

I sure am! Thank you so much for the ask, Blue!

I have to admit I don't read much of fanfiction of other fandoms, so this list is 100% EoA stuff.

5. Passing Time by storyteller362

This is one of the first EoA fanfiction I've ever read, and it still has a special spot in my heart. This is a little compilation of different moments from Gabe's childhood, and I really love the author's takes on his character.

4. The Past Is Prologue by Nontacitare

Well, I think everyone knows this fic. It takes place after the finale, and I really love how it's written and how believable it seems for a possible show continuation. Besides, I love the emphasis on the side characters (Olivia, for example), which actually made me care about them more than I used to.

3. Melee (not really a title, it's a prompt) by cartoonfangirl1218

Ajakdjfknf I know I never commented on it and didn't even let you know I'd read it and I'm so sorry 😭 Anyway, this is just a fantastically written fic, showing Gabe's guard side in all its glory, and I really the action and how well it characterizes Gabe.

2. Off-key? You know, like your singing by BlueFlyingTurtle (you)

Honestly, this is my favourite fanfic by you. I really love the general concept of the secret concerts and how you portray Gabe and Naomi's relationship. Not to mention how well-written it is.

1. The Adventures of Queen Elena by Livelovelaugh118

This is a Gabelena fic, and I really love everything about it. It has romance, mysteries, intriguing plot, a big emphasis on Gabe as a character, not as Elena's love interest, and on his family. This is a story in process, and I can say I always look forward for updates.

There are a few fics that were written specifically for me, but it's obvious that they're much more special to me, so I don't think it would make sense to add them.

Thank you again!

The Top-5 thing.

Do you have favorite writers in the EoA fandom? Your fanfiction is very good, by the way!

Well... first of all, thank you for the compliment. I'm glad to know you like my fics. :)

Regarding your question... well... in no particular order, these are all the fanfic authors whose stories I like, separated in two categories.

Authors who both have Tumblr accounts and have at least some of their works (or links to their works) here on Tumblr

- @lostbutterflyutau, who besides having works posted on tumblr has an archiveofourown account here, and whose EoA fic masterlist on Tumblr is here (please keep in mind, some of her works are for mature audiences, so if you’re underage, consider yourself warned)

- @a-lilacsong, who besides having works posted on tumblr has an archiveofourown account here

- @zoeology31, who besides having works posted on tumblr has an archiveofourown account here

- @cartoonfangirl1218, who, to the best of my knowledge, only posts her stories on her Tumblr account.

- @c-rose2081, who, to the best of my knowledge, only posts her stories on her Tumblr account.

Authors who don’t have Tumblr accounts, don’t have their works on Tumblr, or whose Tumblr accounts I can’t find them if they exist

- @kikakattioi,  whose archiveofourown account is here

- @chrissybell648, whose fanfiction dot net account is here (please keep in mind that some of her works are for mature audiences, so if you’re underage, consider yourself warned)

- PizzaNSunshine, whose archiveofourown account is here

- BlueFlyingTurtle, whose archiveofourown account is here.

- @lieutenant-amuel, whose archiveofourown account is here.

I will say right now that I haven't literally read all EoA fics by all of these authors, but I liked all fics from these authors that I read, and recommend them all.

I hope you enjoy them as much as I did, and also, if you read them, please make sure to leave reviews. ;) Reviews are what keeps fanfic authors going.

[blueflyingturtleontheway]

Do you have any other socials

I have Ao3! That's where I publish all my actuals fics. My nick is @BlueFlyingTurtle

[ograndebatata]

I luuuuv your fic reviews, it has given me so much good stuff to read while i wait for your updates. Are therre any more fics you gonna review? Or at least pointme to good writers?

Well... I never thought I'd have my fanfic reviews complimented, but thank you very much for it. I'm glad you like them. :)

Well... I don't dare to make any predictions of fics I intend to review soon, because my predictions there can turn out very faulty, to put it very mildly. 

But regarding authors whose works I recommend (at least as far as we only talk about Elena of Avalor, because I’m guessing that’s the fandom you’re asking for) here are two lists. 

Authors who both have Tumblr accounts and have at least some of their works (or links to their works) here on Tumblr 

- @lostbutterflyutau, who besides having works posted on tumblr has an archiveofourown account here (please keep in mind, some of her works are for mature audiences, so if you’re underage, consider yourself warned)

- PizzaNSunshine, whose archiveofourown account is here

- BlueFlyingTurtle, whose archiveofourown account is here 

These are all my recs so far. I will admit I haven’t read every story by each of these authors (although I did read all Elena of Avalor stories by some of them), but I will also say that I liked all stories by them that I read. I hope you enjoy all those you read too. :)

I’m sorry I took so long to give a reply...

Elena mentioned a limited jail time for Victor in the Sister of Invention episode, so I do think that, even if Quita Moz never came to her and told her she needed a malvago to free Ixlan, she'd have de-petrified Victor and released Carla from the dungeon eventually, albeit much later.

Well... that was back in Sister of Invention. She may have changed her mind since then, especially given Victor didn't just 'stay put and take his current sentence', so to speak.

And considering the total lack of references to either Victor or Carla after Elena's 'outburst of rage' and Doña mentioning that Carla gave up, I think it could have gone one way or the other.

That's just my opinion, though.

In the show, Is Ash's hair naturally white with blue streaks? or did she dye it?

I don't know. I think they never said it one way or the other.

If I had to guess, she at least dyed the blue streaks, but that's just my opinion. I think the white's natural (I think I remember Craig Gerber even confirming that on a tweet, though I may be wrong) but I understand why others might think otherwise, and it was never confirmed in the actual show.

The Escaping Prisoner

So... for the first time in quite some time, here I am introducing another original character for my Tales of the Ever Realm AU. Well, to be more exact, one OC Stand In, as TV Tropes coined the term, and two fully original characters. A witch (she’s the OC Stand In), a pelican, and a “striped field mouse” (who’s not actually a striped field mouse). 

Picture drawn by and commissioned to @c-rose2081​

Expanding a bit on the characters... the witch’s name is Pacífica Noriega. She was born in the Kingdom of Galdiz, but moved to Nueva Vista later on - after she got married, to be specific - and lived there until Shuriki started her efforts to conquer Avalor, at which point she was banished to a remote island in the southern oceans (which is NOT Soledad Island). The only reason she wasn’t outright killed was because Shuriki felt she might have magical knowledge that would be useful to consult on occasion, but Shuriki rarely made use of that privilege, and soon stopped using it altogether. 

Pacífica lived alone on that island for years, surviving only because she was skilled enough to use some forms of wandless magic, which allowed her to, most importantly, get and cook her food and fashion new clothes after her original ones were lost to wear and tear. But any company she had was very limited, until the day a pelican was blown there by a storm, injured and in need of care.

She nursed him back to health and named him Pescador, and the two of them became friends. Unfortunately, they were still stuck on that island - or at least, Pacífica still was, and Pescador cared enough about her that he didn’t want to leave her. And even when Pacífica managed to fashion herself a wand from some fossilized magical amber she found, she wasn’t able to leave, as much to her sadness, while her raw power was nothing to sneeze at, her level of magical finesse had never been the best, bar in a few specific areas.

But time for her to break free came when Oleg, who looked like a regular striped field mouse, but was something else entirely, ended up on that island after a shipwreck. With Pescador and Oleg’s help, Pacífica was able to retrieve the required ingredients to make a flying broom and, after 43 years stuck on that island, finally managed to leave.

Unfortunately for her, she had no idea of what awaited her back home. 

And, to any who might be curious on who the witch is, here is an excerpt from an upcoming larger oneshot explaining her identity.

[Brief preface: Regarding who Pacífica is an OC Stand In of... I will say the following for now - we got a glimpse of an artistic rendering of her as a much younger woman in Song of the Sirenas.

With that ouf ot the way, here is the excerpt.]

|||

A light smack on her hand caught her attention. Flinching in surprise, Pacífica flicked her eyes  down. While she had been distracted, Pescador had climbed onto the rock by her left foot. His beak glided up and down her hand in slow strokes, the sympathy and sadness in his bird eyes visible to her after how well they’d gotten to know each other.

Then, another caress followed, this one bristly and over a small spot of her cheek, but just as compassionate. She could barely see him, and didn’t dare turn her head for a better look in case she made him lose balance, but she knew that Oleg had climbed up her dress and was giving her as much comfort as he could while still in his mouse form. 

Despite herself, Pacífica allowed her mouth to curl into a small smile, her left hand moving up to pet Pescador’s head, then even higher so she could run a finger along Oleg’s back. Her imprisonment on that island might have been long, but thanks to both of them, it was about to come to an end. The moment she got on that broom, she would be off to Avalor, find out what had happened over the last 43 years, and deliver the kingdom from Shuriki’s rule. 

And if life was particularly merciful to her, she would even get to see her son again. 

The thought gave her pause, her hand dropping back to her side as her hint of a smile faded. The idea of seeing her son again had filled her to bursting with happiness more than once, and she was sure he would be happy to see her too… but there were many things to consider. 

After all, it had been forty-three years she had seen Cristóbal in the flesh, and over thirty-five since she last had news of him. What would he be like by now? How well had he endured Shuriki’s rule? Did he even still live? Or on the other end, did he even expect her to still be alive? Would he be angry - justifiably or not - that she had taken this long to escape? 

And more importantly for the kingdom’s subjects, was he ready for the role of king? He might be the only candidate left. The rest of the family other than Esteban had been killed, and if Esteban was even still alive, it mattered little when it came to simply taking the crown. By right of succession, the crown would go to her son, not to Raul and Lucia’s nephew.
