20 Questions for Fic Writers

Thank you for the tag @marimbles! ♥️ No pressure tags: @litfeathers @lollytea @ashanimus @greyhavenisback @princecharmingwinks @tails89 @nutellarghh @ash-mcj @childlikegoblinqueen @daydreams-and-honeybees @avatarmerida @asarcasticwitch @sailahina @secretly-of-course @sapphic--kiwi @haystarlight @zyrafowe-sny @peachytea04 @slightecho

1. How many works do you have on AO3? just hit 100 last month!

2. What's your total AO3 word count? 479,814

3. What fandoms do you write for? I've dabbled in quite a few over the years, but the ones I've written the most fics for are doctor who (eleven/amy) teen wolf (sterek) and the owl house (huntlow)

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos? Error 404: Brain Cell Not Found (teen wolf | sterek) You Always Want What You're Running From (sleepy hollow | ichabbie) What To Do When Your Emotionally Constipated Werewolf Boyfriend Gets Cursed By A Witch: A Guide (teen wolf | sterek) Gold Rush (the owl house | huntlow) Lovesick (the owl house | huntlow) 5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? I do! Every kind comment means so much to me, so I always take the time to respond to all of them (though I'm not always great at getting to them on time.)

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

Hmm probably The Courtesan and the Writer (doctor who | eleven/amy) I used to dabble in angst a bit more when I first started writing fic, but these days all my fics are pretty much guaranteed to have a happy ending, because real life is hard enough lol

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

Pretty much all my fics have happy endings, but one of the happiest I wrote would probably be my huntlow college AU Until You Meet Someone Who Makes The Fall Feel Like Flying

8. Do you get hate on fics?

I wouldn't call it outright hate, but I have gotten a handful of rude comments over the years (complaining that I don't post often enough, telling me my headcanons are wrong, telling me how they think my story should have ended — one time someone yelled at me in all caps because I said that a character chilled red wine lol that one was wild)

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

I do! Smut is fun. Mine is typically more focused on the emotional aspect than the physical, is usually the result of a long tension-fueled slow burn buildup, and is usually tooth-rottingly fluffy, soft, and sweet.

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

I have! Back in the days where superwholock plagued tumblr, I wrote one of the silliest cross-overs imaginable, combining doctor who, torchwood, bbc sherlock, supernatural, the avengers, and sleepy hollow: Lords, Gods, and Madmen

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Yup 🙃

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes!

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I have! But most of them never saw the light of day 😂 one that did is called An Eggcellent Morning For Cooking Lessons co-written with @ash-mcj @tails89 and @nutellarghh

14. What's your all-time favourite ship?

I think my top three ships are reflected in who I've written the most fic for: huntlow, sterek, and the eleventh doctor/amy pond

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

Luckily, everything that's posted to AO3 is finished, but at this point I'm thinking I'll probably never get around to writing the little nightmares, reylo, and captain swan WIPs I've had sitting in my drafts since 2019

16. What are your writing strengths?

I've been told I capture the characters really well, which means a lot to me. I've also been told that my writing is cozy and comforting and fills people with warm fuzzy feelings, which is always nice to hear 🥰

17. What are your writing weaknesses? I will sit there and agonize over the same paragraph trying to make it sound perfect instead of just letting the writing flow, so sometimes a fic will be in the works for a very long time until it's finally ready to be posted (by which time I'm probably sick of it and never want to look at it again 😂)

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

I've dabbled in this a little bit, but it's usually been plot-relevant, like a character learning to speak the language (i.e. when Hunter tried to learn Spanish in Being Human.) When I do write in another language, I always do my best to research and try to get the translations as accurate as possible, and I always include the English translation either in the fic itself or as an author's note so readers don't have to break away from my fic to google anything. (And also so that they know what my intention was, on the off-chance I translated something wrong and accidentally wrote something offensive.) 19. First fandom you wrote for?

Does anyone remember that vampire show that came out back in like 2009? Moonlight? Yeah, that one lol

20. Favourite fic you've ever written? God, that's like asking me to pick my favorite child. Okay fine, it's Until You Meet Someone Who Makes The Fall Feel Like Flying

Ichabbie AU | 101 Dalmatians Aesthetic part 3

Insp. by Canine Connection by Sing

[like-bunnies]

A very short ficlet from Ichabod Crane’s POV about seeing Abbie Mills for the first time after they went Chasing the North and he was sent back to die. 

Crane looked up at the latest gathering of people who had come to gawk at him. He knew this was where she would be for she had told him that centuries ago, in a different time and a different world. A world without automobiles and blinding lights and this continuous buzzing noise. She told him she first saw him in the holding cells at the sheriff's department and she knew nothing in her life would ever be the same. He found himself there now, manacles digging into his wrists as he waited behind bars.

His heart starting pounding as he realized it wasn't just anyone coming in here but it was her. Abbie. Miss Mills. Lieutenant Mills.

His Lieutenant. Ready as ever.  

He fought the urge to rise up and meet her, afraid he might frighten her or make her think he was truly mad. Crane wished they had allowed him a basin of water so he could clean himself up or at least given him a moment to fasten his shirt properly. He wished he had on his coat if for nothing more than the security it always brought him. That his hair was secured properly.

He dared to hope for just a moment Abbie would look his way and recognize him. She would say his name and it would be like just it had been before the Sisters of the Circle sent him back in time to that day on the battlefield where he had to set everything right. It didn't matter that it was impossible... he still hoped she would look at him and say 'Captain Crane' and this would also be right.

She didn't say his name. She looked at him but that was it. There wasn't even a flicker of recognition in her eyes.

He had to look away, compose himself. He shook all the memories of their short time together out of his head. The taste of her lips. The way she sounded when... those thoughts couldn't be there if this was going to work. This had to work.

She told a story to her colleague... who was this man at her side, calling her Abbie? She told him about what could only be the Hessian soldier. He was here, in this time, without a head. Crane wanted to say so much and to tell her everything but he had been warned by the Sisters that time could slip out of place if he made even one mistake. If he let her know before the moment time was stitched back together again. It could be years. He was going to have to be with her for years before...

Crane knew instantly that he was going to have to pull off a performance like no other if this was going to be successful. It was necessary if they were going to save the world.

More importantly, if they were going to ever be together again.

“Who are you?” she asked.

And he wished with all his heart he could tell her.

Hers, Chapter 2

(Chapter 1 link is here.)

I said I’d finish this fic this month, and it’s still 2/28, even on the East Coast! I’ve got over three hours left in February in my time zone...

Chapter 2

“Crane awoke in the middle of the night, but not quite in darkness, since they had neglected to turn off the reading lamp on his bedside table before sleep claimed them. For a forgetful half-minute or so he simply basked in the moment. Not twelve hours ago he had expected to be dead, again, this time by conscious choice rather than the mischance of battle. But another way had been found, so now he was here, still in the land of the living, safe in bed with a warm, beautiful, and beloved woman asleep in his arms, a faint smile tugging at her lips as if her dreams pleased her…“

[niazha16]

Ichabbie AU: Crane cuts off all his hair throws out them God forsaken clothes he was buried and starts to dress more modern. Seeing as though every man he see Abbie talks to has regular clothes, hair is cut and they seem to make Abbie blush and laugh. So he’s going to do everything in his power to make sure he’s the only one making her blush and laugh even if that includes stepping out his comfort zone.

[doomtwinkie]

(A brief prequel to The Force Between Us, based on this prompt. Mildly NSFW behind the cut.) Two hours before the ill-fated mission on Orto Plutonia...

The laundry droid had destroyed her clothes.

Abbie sighed, eyeing her shredded outfit that laid on a bench outside of the refresher. The note attached had been an apology of sorts, that the droid had malfunctioned, that the Republic would compensate her for the loss of her clothing, blah, blah, blah. It was all very official. It was also quite unhelpful, seeing as how her quarters - where the rest of her clothing was stored - was on the Witness, docked a full two decks below her. That was a problem, considering the only thing that she had to cover herself with was a plain, gray towel.

She plopped down on the bench and groaned. It was morning, and the corridors of the ship would no doubt be filled with people. There was little hope of her making it back to the Witness unseen. She considered sending a droid to fetch something, but... it was a droid that had gotten her into this mess in the first place...

Abbie furrowed her brow. “No, it was actually Crane,” she muttered to herself, thinking back. Crane and two of his clone trooper buddies, who had all discovered a baby dianoga living in one of the nearby toilets. Crane, who, along with his buddies, had tried to feed the baby dianoga. Crane, who, along with his buddies, had overfed the baby dianoga, causing the poor thing to barf up the foul contents of its stomach all over the room and everyone in it - including her own unlucky self, who had just walked in to check and see what in the hell was taking Crane so freaking long.

Thank the Force the refresher never ran out of hot water, she thought. Vomit was harsh and smelly as it was, but it was something else entirely when it came from a creature that made its home in the ship’s septic system.

Abbie once again considered sending a droid for her clothes, until she spied Crane’s laundered clothes folded neatly in a pile next to hers. His clothes had survived the malfunctioning droid, apparently. Either that, or they were new clothes. She reached over and grabbed up the beige-colored undershirt sitting on top of the pile. There was a tiny, silver tag attached to the collar, stating Crane’s usual size. Yep, new, Abbie thought, shaking her head. Of course the Jedi would make sure he had new stuff. Of course they would.

Without a second thought, she ripped the silver tag off the collar and tossed it. She then stripped her towel and threw the billowy undershirt on over her head.

The shirt actually fit her... sort of. Abbie smoothed it down at the sides, and then stared at her reflection in a nearby mirror. It may have been a shirt on her tall, lanky partner; but, it was quite clearly a dress on her. It fell nearly to her knees, in fact. The deep v-neck with the ties, though... they left little to the imagination. In fact, certain parts of her anatomy could easily slip out of the shirt if the ties were left untied - possibly even if they were tied. She was confident that the Jedi would not approve of such attire, something that made her grin from ear to ear.

She heard the refresher door whoosh open and then closed. Crane cleared his throat behind her. She turned and smirked at him, as he stood there, dripping wet, with nothing more than a gray towel wrapped around his lower half.

“Is... is that my shirt?” he asked, pushing a long strand of wet hair out of his face.

“No,” Abbie replied, first staring him in the eyes, then at his glistening chest, and then back to his eyes. She grinned innocently.

Crane raised an eyebrow.

“I am fairly certain that is my shirt,” he said with a smirk of his own.

Abbie walked over to him confidently, the v-neck of the shirt widening as she did. Crane peeked at her chest. She noticed, and smiled coyly.

“Oh really?” She teased, putting her hand directly on the scar across his chest and pushing him backwards; back into the door of the refresher. She pressed herself close to him, breathing in a mix of soap and earthiness, “then I suppose you’ll have to take it off of me, won’t you?”

Crane chuckled, and then took a deep breath. He closed his eyes, and raised his hand. The air around them became charged, and the bottom of the shirt she wore began to float upwards. First one thigh was exposed, then then other, then her bottom. Abbie scoffed, grabbing onto the shirt and pushing it back down.

“Not with the Force,” she chided as he opened his eyes, “that’s too easy. That’s... cheating.”

Crane nodded, grinning.

“So, I would need to use my hands, then,” he said, wrapping his long arms around her, his hands and lanky fingers finding her bottom. He grabbed a hold of her cheeks playfully, squeezing at first; and then lifting her up all the way to his midsection. Abbie snaked her own arms up around his neck, bringing her almost to eye level with him.

“Hands seem fair. So do fingers.” She said, staring him directly into the eyes, “especially fingers.”

He wiggled his fingers enthusiastically, squeezing her bum as he did. He then kissed her gently on the lips, causing her to moan sensually.

“Mouth?” He asked breathlessly. “Please?” She mumbled, returning a passionate kiss of her own, “er, I mean, obviously." “And tongue?”

Abbie twisted her legs around him, knocking the towel that was wrapped around his lower half to the floor. Crane barely noticed his complete and utter nakedness; or that he was starting to flush everywhere. Instead, he pecked at her, each kiss tickling her with his beard, all the way down her neck. She gasped contentedly with each peck. With barely a thought, she slid her foot along the door frame, triggering the refresher door and causing it to slide open. Crane stepped backwards into the refresher, still holding her.

“I have no idea how you’re going to remove this shirt with your tongue, Crane,” she told him, moaning as he sucked at her neck, “but I welcome the attempts.”

“Even the failed attempts?” He asked between kisses, offering a playful wink.

Abbie chuckled, before reaching down to kiss him intensely.

“Especially the failed attempts,” she said, as the refresher door closed behind them...

One of those weird things I started a long time ago, posted some of, deleted it, never finished before other things happened but have finished now. It really is a story that goes a bit sideways. Put in my experimental pile. 

[callmeelle22]

Love your ichabbie story, it was just so good. Do you think you may write anymore stories about them? Would love to see your writing and take on them in-universe but AU :)

Thank you 😊

I will definitely write more about them. I’m not 100% sure I would do an in-universe though. As much as I love shows like Sleepy Hollow, I’m not sure how good I would be at writing that lore.
