#I'm drowning in half-finished fic halp

[haledamage]

finish your fics friday saturday

tagged by @queen-scribbles 💖 leaving my IFs out of this, but even so hoooooboy, I half so many half-finished fics right now lmao

rules: send an ask with one of the listed WIPs, I'll add five sentences and ramble about it a bit. :3

hope you like Etain, because she's featured in a lot of these :3

4 NWN2 Etain/Casavir: one pre-relationship, one in the gray area between pre-relationship and when they actually confess feelings, one somewhere after they get together, one post-Mask of the Betrayer reunion/epilogue, all of them prompt fills

PfWotR Etain apotheosis, with a side of Etain/Vikkari

Riykas/Zenith in "if swtor won't do it I'll have to do it myself"

2 Marii/Tragen AU that were supposed to be for OC Kiss Week, but both decided to take place too early for smooches so I set them aside for now XD one during the Yavin stuff, the other their reunion in KotFE

Kira/Adam snowed-in-as-an-excuse-to-cuddle fic, but it's still in very early stages of making the premise plausible ;)

I swear there were a couple more, but I can't find them at the moment...

who's working on something at the moment? you're tagged if you are! 💖

Tagged by the very lovely @amoxilwrites who i love dearly <3

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

Under the Scoops pseud, 23, but 30 total

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

967,370 as of this morning (HALP)

3. What fandoms do you write for?

DNF primarily, but i've written for Dan and Phil and Teen Wold and One Direction

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

I'll do just the DNF fics (because the highest one is for Teen Wolf)

Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is

I've Never Fallen from Quite This High

The Curse and Cure of the Internet

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Yes, absolutely. I've made some fun acquaintances in my comment section, and even some friends. I like discussing my stories and comments are a great place to do that without being annoying or bragging or a million other things my anxiety likes to yell at me for. I love answering questions and talking back about theories, etc. I think I've really done a good job of fostering a good comment section!!

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Um, it's a Scoops guarantee that my fics will have happy endings, but the angiest I would say is The Mushroom King and The Nightmare but I have other stories with angstier middles lol

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

Lol, literally all of them I am such a sap

8. Do you get hate on fics?

I saw someone talk about me on tumblr once and they said I should drown, so? Not directly, but sorta? I dunno, it just makes me laugh. Sorry you didn't like my mpreg story, it was never that serious

9. Do you write smut? If so what kind?

Yup. I write all the things, with varying degrees of success. My smut is usually really emotionally focused with um lots of strange metaphor and a sprinkle of humor.

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

No, but never say never. Does Deep in Dream count?

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I know of! *fingers crossed*

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

I had someone do a very bad podfic of one of my teen wolf fics--I say bad because it's a mechanical voice and half of it doesn't even work

13. Have you ever cowritten a fic before?

Nope.

14. What's your all-time favourite ship

DNF, sterek, drarry (I know... I hate that JK Rowling ruined everything), Merthur, Phan

15. What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

Currently? Hits Different, but I know I'll finished that one. Of my old WIPs, there's a dan and phil one I'd like to finish

16. What are your writing strengths?

HAHA, bro, I don't know. Tension? Dialogue? realistic angst? Making unrealistic tropes seem extremely plausible. You tell me, buddy

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Setting. I always forget about the setting until the last second. Um, I'm not sure what else? Ask Alison

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I'd prefer that if I can't figure it out in context, that it's written in italics or something and said to be that language. Unless the point of me as the reader not being able to understand is that I'm not supposed to understand along with the character, then that's fine.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Big sigh, Harry Potter. Then Teen Wolf

20. Favourite fic you've ever written?

Is anyone surprised? Deep in the Dream of a Game

Thanks for tagging me, Vesp!! This was very fun! I'm tagging @bottleofchaos @jestbee @sageafk @lucithornz I can't remember but I think Vesp tagged everyone else I would have tagged, but feel free to do it anyway <3
