20 questions for fic writers

Tagged by @starlightvld- thank you!!! ☺️

1. How many works do you have on A03? 42! (neat!)

2. What’s your total Ao3 word count? 140,503!

3. What fandoms do you write for? Mostly vld. I have a Good Omens fic and always want to write more and a few fandom that I'm tempted to write for, but I'm still very much in vld.

4. What are your top five fics by kudos? - Breaking point (vld, sheith) ; A little mouse told me (vld, sheith); Flowers and Blood (vld, sheith); A cure to loneliness (Good Omens, ineffable husbands)

This gets long so I'm adding the rest under a read more!!

5. Do you respond to comments? Yes! I do! Sometimes I can take a little long but I really enjoy talking with my readers!

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? Just a call... (vld, gen) I think! It's an open ending, but it ends up on a frustrating note (which was the point).

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? Oh man, they almost always have a happy or at least hopeful ending. Let's go with A little mouse told me (vld, sheith).

Oh, hey, fun anecdote! Someone commented on Stay with me (vld, sheith) to tell me it was the 200,000th work in the "happy ending" tag! They had just witnessed the tag going up to that number with my fic!

8. Do you get hate on fics? Not so far, thankfully. (Happened once on fanart though, but it was just one dumb comment by an anti).

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? I haven't so far, I'm not really interested in writing it (never say never, though!).

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written? Well, I did 2 fairly recently for a crackship event! It was loads of fun. The craziest might be A Mysterious French Chef, which started as a Hunk&Remy idea, but ended up involving Hunk, Allura and the space mice for vld, and Linguini, Colette, and Remy for Ratatouille, and everyone interacting pretty significantly. I really loved mashing the 2 universes, and for something that started as a "crack" idea, it ended up working surprisingly well!!

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not that I know of. I've had some original (anonymous) poems that I cowrote with a friend plagiarized down to using our actual pseudonym, but that wasn't in fandom or even online!

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? I don't think so.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? Yes! Five times Shiro broke the rules, and one time Keith did with VirdisDrachen (vld, Shiro&Keith). It's based on a roleplay. Other than that, while it's mostly an artist+writer big bang collaboration, I think Square_Orange and I did discuss the plot a fair amount for Let It Snow! (vld, sheith).

I also have 2 fics that are remixes of other people's work, done for the sheith remix event : When you lived! (the “Enormous, within your small hands” remix) inspired by a fic by @annaofaza, and High Score! (the “I want us forever” remix) inspired by a fic by Tragedy_Machine.

14. What’s your all time favorite ship? To no-one's surprise: sheith.

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? I am fairly good at finishing my wips, even if I do have some stuff that has been waiting for a while. I still have my notes about Keith grieving Shiro between s2 and s3 and how the team tried to support him and each other but how things became tense, that I wrote just after s3 aired! I still hope to get to it one day!

There's also the collab with VirdisDrachen tbh because we dropped the rp after a while and I wouldn't finish this alone. So I'm afraid this one will stay as is.

16. What are your writing strengths? I think I'm good with dialogues and characterization? Themes like friendship, found family are my jam, too. Of course it's subjective.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? I am learning, but action and fight scenes are *hard*. (But I also love them? haha). On the exact opposite side, stories with very low stakes are sometimes hard to write, when it's just 100% fluff and no conflict, unless it's like, a short scene... It's easier with some emotional or romantic build up (ex mutual pining > getting together) but otherwise I really have to *think* to plot the fic. I'm so used to stories centered around conflict (in the literary sense, including inner conflict, not necessarily an actual fight).

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? I agree with @starlightvld that if it's a language that I'm not personally fluent in, I'd look for a native speaker who might want to help or avoid it. Except maybe for conlangs, like Sindarin or Klingon. Although if I ever write in a fandom with something like that, I would f*cking love to get insight from one of these people who actually studied them and are fluent. In a more general way, I'd be cautious that it actually brings something to the story, that it makes sense to use the language that way, and to do it in a way that doesn't confuse readers too much (unless I am purposefully writing for those who know the language, I guess). I will say that I do love different languages to be aknowledged, like for vld fics that actually dig into the paladins having different languages, and the Galra and Altean also, and so on (ex fics where they have universal translators and then there are issues when they break or they can't rely on them for whatever reason).

19. First fandom you wrote for? Voltron! My first fic was a Hunk-centric gen fic, While some count sheep, and I'm still really fond of it!

20. Favourite fic you’ve written? Oh, that's hard, I like them all for different reasons. I do enjoy Carry me away for the sheith saving each other vibes. A little mouse told me (sheith written from the space mice pov) was such a fun exploration! Honestly, the most kudosed ones in question 4 are all fics I am proud of. To chose a lesser known one, I also love A special day , a vld gen Hunk-centric fic!

Tagging... @sodomhipped, @tomatocages, @an-aphorism @museaway @jacqulinetan @levyscripts @annaofaza and whoever wants to do this!

(also no pressure at all if you are tagged!)

A, D, I and V for the letters ask please :)

Hello there anon, thanks for the ask!

A - Your current OTP(s)/OT3(s)/OTX(s)

So my own question about this point would be, what is current? Because my OTPs live within me forever, and I'm a multi-fandom multishipper, so there's like, a lot of them. But I guess I'll go with the one currently taking over the spotlight.

My current OTP is a crossover one, for which I'm the captain of the boat, with only 3 friends as passengers. One is co-captain, the other two might've been kidnapped by me lmao

Lotor (vld)/Azula (atla), named by my co-captain as Lotzula. This is where my brain has been living for the past few months.

D - A pairing you wish you liked but just can’t (again: be nice)

Wuko is one, I just don't see Mako putting up with someone like Wu, much as he's a fun character to explore.

I - Has tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why

Not fandoms, but ships, yes. The blue and red dynamic is almost dead to me because of how some fandoms behave with it, and about it, and in defense of it. (Twitter is guilty of that too, btw)

V - 3 OTPs from 3 different fandoms

Okay, so-

Matchablossom (SK8), because look at them, look at Cherry! Gotta love the childhood friends to grown up rival husbands trope. Particulary mixed with the "one's a terrible flirt, and the other is a bit constipated" one.

Linko (TLOK), because look at them, look at Lin! I'm a goner for the emotional unavailable character, armed with wits and sarcasm, and with an unhealthy work and coffee balance. And here we get two!

Sheith (VLD), because look at them, look at Shiro! Listen, mentor and mentee? Brothers in arms? Co-pilots of an ancient sentient powerful as fuck machine? A half-alien and a space explorer?? Do I need to go on???

Wanna know more, ask me!

[apoptoses]

i think the last anon is referring to some drama that i am unaware of, so not addressing that specifically, but speaking for my people 😅, sometimes reading fic is a lower threshold way of entertainment which is kinda nice, and then from there maybe the fic is appealing enough that you get tempted to watch the show or, here read the books, or whatever - i've definitely done that more than once! for vc in particular, the books are not the easiest to get through, and there are so many! ive read some but i dont know benji or bianca from adam, and i still enjoy when they appear in fic, even though they're functionally OCs to me

oh yeah i mean i've read fic for fandoms i'm not part of, but like no matter how many sheith fics i read i wouldn't say i'm part of voltron fandom or that i know the actual characters at all.

and totally there's a lot of VC books but if you have a blorbo people who have read them all are totally willing to tell you which books are best for you. like if you're purely a lestat fan and thus never read blood and gold nobody is gonna horse whip you for it lol or if you like armand best so you read the books he has the biggest roles in and then just read his POV chapters in other books he appears in that's fine.

but idk, i don't think you can really say you 'know' a character and are part of a fandom if you never interact with the source material at all. because at that point all you know is the character via a long game of telephone which distorts the core of who they actually are.

like say you like daniel- if you only read a certain sector of the fandom's works, you would have a really fucked up and bizarre idea of who he is and what his relationships are to other characters, because some people's head canons have nothing to do with the source material. and then, as someone who's been in fandom for over 20 years, that becomes messy because you might go around thinking those things are facts about him and be tempted to tell others their characterization of him is wrong....based on characterization you only know via a handful of people's very specific head canons.

you see what i mean? i wouldn't go around telling people how to play football based on my friend's husbands football opinions without having watched a game or read the rules myself.

but people are welcome to read and enjoy fic for media they've never interacted with! but if they want to write their own fic or speak with authority on the characters, they should at least read/watch that character's bits from the source material first.

[bioplast-hero]

[cockybusiness]

Hello! I don’t know if you take show recommendations but I strongly suggest you watch Good Omens and Our Flag Means Death. The Ineffable Husbands and Blackbonnet are Sheith coded and the humor in Our Flag Means Death reminds me of your humor. Love your art and I love seeing the love for Sheith hasn’t subsided after all these years.

thank you so much!!

I've watched both shows and loved it OvO ♥

[greenflamedwriter]

What type of Fanfiction did I transmigrate too???

A/n: I read a REALLY good fanfic of the OG Bingqiu where Shen Qingqiu made plans in place to survive Binghe and ended up seducing him and now Luo Binghe wants him to pay but also wants him as his empress and they come to a conclusion Shen Qingqiu was able to reveal his past and even apologised in his own way.

Anyway NOTES And warnings! This will have NSFW sex scenes etc, those scenes WILL have a warning later on down the story if you want to SKIP them- I did plan on writing more but now I'm drawing blanks ^^; So sex scenes, etc blah blah blah enjoy!

Luo Binghe and Shen Qingqiu were still fucked up, their relationship bordering on possesion and survival, then it turned into trust but both still regarded each other as two predators cross paths.

So they get together, Shen Qingqiu is fine with the harem in his words they give Binghe what he can't give, Shen Qingqiu had the title of empress, As long as Binghe doesn't have a harem of husbands he's fine.

Enter Shen Yuan!

When Shen Yuan transmigrates into PIDW he freaks out- Shen Qingqiu's alive!? so it's the beggining of the boo- wait Luo Binghe is exposed as a heavenly demon- So Shen Qingqiu is ABOUT to get his arms ripped of-

Their MARRIED!?

Welp, this had to be an alternative PIDW, [later on once he meets up with Airplane he gapes as he's told this was the DRAFT version but the conclusion wasn't finalised as the author was dead so the characters just naturally choose marriage?]

Anyway Shen Yuan figured to just 'avoid' the couple, thanks to Empress Shen Qingqiu there was NO merging of the worlds and Shen Yuan could cultivate and explore this world to his hearts content :D

So far he's living his afterlife to the fullest, right until he almost dies...again.

The fact that he was saved was surprising. He was hunting down a beast that resembled one of those monsters from Spy Kids 2 made by that nutty professor, if you cut of one head another one appears.

But this thing had two heads, he couldn't dodge the two for long and almost lost his leg to a pair of poisinious fangs.

Thankfully a black blur swooped in and sliced the neck- Shen Yuan grimaced no wait not thankfully that was going to-

But instead the necks pulsed black ooze out the wound as if the sword caturiased the necks to stop them from growing. Shen Yuans eyes widened.

...Well thats one way to do it.

The man landed and before Shen Yuan could even thank him the sword as aimed at him.

"Since I saved your life, this beast is mine so it's best if you scram."

How rude!?

"What? No way- I almost killed myself to see a hydra." Shen Yuan stood up and almost slapped the sword away but then thought better of it.

The man eyes narrowed, and Shen Yuan figured he might just get murdered. Backtracking he spoke holding his hand up.

"I was just observing and wanted to document it. Can I have five mintues?" The man tilted his lips then nodded, not sheithing his sword.

Shen Yuan reached into his pockets taking out his journel and flicking it over to his page and notes of hydras. He scowled, he had nothing for weakness, freakishly weird sword isn't something anyone can use.

He began to sketch the shape as best he could and even leaned closer drawing in detail the head and even the scales, he was blocking in shapes and only drew the details in real time for later.

The guy was staring at him and it was making him nervous. He really wanted to be accurate in this. He paused as he gazed at the Hydras mouth and paused.

Taking out a knife he lifted the lip and saw the venom still dripping from the fangs...that could be really valuable.

"Is it okay if I take some venom?"

"Why?"

"A mans gotta eat." Shen Yuan quipped back, say what you will about cultivating but he was starving half the time. Some venom would could set him up for the next month.

He heard the other scowl, "Fine."

Shen Yuan hummed happily, and rumaged around he even used a device for milking snakes- it was a gift and he's never used it UNTIl this moment! How lucky.

He then did the other Hydra head as well so he had two large jars of venom. Nice.

As he stood up he walked over to the man looking stormy, he held out the jar.

"Here, as thanks for saving me." Shen Yuan smiled.

Even if he was a jerk. He still saved him.

Shen Qingqiu scowl could kill anyone, he watched as Shen Yuans eyes locked onto his and saw the immediete effect he had on him.

Shen Yuan tensed his eyes immiedtly looking away terrified. Oh Shen Qingqiu scared him?

good. He'll keep away from Luo Binghe.

Shen Qingqiu layed on the bed scowling, "You have a harem, but you can't have men too when you have me. Shouldn't I be enough?" He sat up scowling. He knew if he asked Luo Binghe would kick out Shen Yuan, would think nothing off it.

Luo Binghe stroked his face "Who said he was for my harem?"

What?

Luo Binghe looked amused, his voice sounded considering "I wasn't pursuing Shen Yuan for myself, he could be yours. You could have your own harem, not all of them could be for sex it could be just us like this." Luo Binghe spoke kissing his forehead but he felt his lips curl against his forehead.

"But I've noticed how much you like to bully him, seeing him cry. You enjoy it, I know you've been lonely when I'm with my wives you can use him. Have Shen Yuan warm your bed. You're my empress you deserve the best."

Shen Qingqiu couldn't believe what Luo Binghe was thinking, he was too overwhelemed with jelously he never realised that this was for him.

That Luo Binghe in his own way, was trying to please Shen Qingqiu.

"You don't want Shen Yuan?"

"Not unless you're willing to share, but if you don't want him then thats fine, I'll move him to another palace maybe under Mobei-Jun he seems to like that rat Shang Qinghua."

Shen Qingqiu was considering, he was so focused of seeing Shen Yuan as a rival, as another hoity cultivator who could steal everything away from him.

Shen Qingqiu lay back down, his hands shaking. Luo Binghe took his hand and gave it a kiss.

"I will never let you go, Shen Qingqiu. My Empress, I will never replace you or leave you- I worry you might get bored with me. Leave me for Yue Qingyuan." He stroked his hand bringing it to his lips.

"The self control I have, I would cut off your arms and legs, hide you away in my bedroom, have you rely soley on me for your needs. Keep you by myside forever. I will never let you go."

Instead of horryfying him, Shen Qingqiu found himself smiling, snuggling further into his husbands chest. "Likewise, if you marry Shen Yuan and leave me, forget me. I'll kill you."

Ah young love.

Shen Qingqiu knew Shen Yuan wouldn't understand this, the possesive behaviour both of them have with each other. He doubted Shen Yuan would survive him never mind both of them, he would think they were gross, disgusting. Unhealthy. But both Luo Binghe and Shen Qingqiu were survivors, everything they've ever had was ripped from their hands. Once they've gotten stronger they would defend what they love with everything they had.

With this change Shen Qingqiu began watching Shen Yuan in a new light, he knew the other didn't like him. He was almost like Liu Qingge, assuming he was scum and the worst person to exist.

It didn't help him warm up to Shen Yuan, the two barely got along. He had no idea what Luo Binghe was thinking. But after Shen Yuan returned from the Northern realm he suddenly looked at Shen Qingqiu to report and blanched.

He couldn't look him in the eye and almost looked...ashamed?

Shen Qingqiu's eyes narrowed in suspicion.

"Why are you acting so skittish for?" He asked once he cornered Shen Yuan, who looked like he would be anywhere but here.

"Look me in the eyes when I'm talking to you."

That caused a reaction, Shen Yuan eyes snapped to his obviously irritated. "Whats wrong with you?"

"Nothing- nothing you should be concerned about it's just...Shang Qinghua didn't tell me anything he just...cleared up a miscomunication. That's all."

Shen Qingqiu gazed at him cooly so what did that have to do with him?

"And?"

Strangely enough, Shen Yuan straightened- even though it didn't do much for how short he was, but then he bowed.

"I Apologise to Empress Shen. I trusted baseless rumours which clouded my judgemnet of you. For that, this foolish one apologises."

Shen Qingqiu blinked "Rumours?" He immiedetly stiffened. Shang Qinghua was a rat- he wouldn't be surprised if he knew about Shen QIngqiu's past if he told Shen Yuan everything.

His hand tightened on his fan, only Luo Binghe knew because it was clawed out of him but he was the only one he trusted. Qui Haitang was executed after he learned that fact. But even Yue Qingyuan didn't know-

"What do you know?" Shen Qingiu asked and Shen Yuan stood up straighter.

"Nothing, only that you and Luo Binghe were similair which is why you're both so compatible, if I wanted to know the truth I should ask the source."

Shen Qingqiu scoffed as if he was going to spill anything to this worm. He realised this was the truth, Shen Yuan knew nothing.

"I never knew you were stupid enough to believe rumours." He would actually, Shen Yuan was gulliable, he noticed the other clench his fists glancing to the side.

"My information came from a trusted source, they've never been wrong before. I had no idea they could be biased."

When he called out airplane they kept reciting.

"Ever heard of unreliable narrator? idiot :p"

Still it was better being called stupid by Shen Qingqiu than by Shang Qinghua.

---

"What is the meaning of this, worm?" Shen Qingqiu was losing his patience with Shen Yuans incompatence. Yes the man was smart he was a walking enclopedia of beastiarys and fuana strangely enough.

And yet he couldn't even get this right.

"Do you have any idea on how to prepare ink?" Shen Yuan fumbled and almost spilled the crushed ink that he was crushing for Shen Qingqiu and made a mess. If he was going to have Shen Yuan as his servant or even entertain Luo Binghes ludacrous harem idea but with his standards and this worms incompatence he wasn't off to a great start.

This pathetic excuse of a man should be grateful, he's done worse to Binghe.

"Well?" After the other didn't respond, looking down Shen Qingqiu fan pushed under his chin lifting up Shen Yuans face to look him in the eye, the next words on his throat faltered.

Shen Yuans eyes were red and he was looking to the side his breathing trying to even out. The humilation burned his cheeks.

"This one apologises, Empress Shen."

Shen Qingqiu was fascinated. He tilted the others face, his own still unomved by the display but inside he felt something akin to excitment. The worm was too easy, Luo Binghe was fake, always smiling and pretending nothing fazed him. Shen Qingqiu barely poked this soft thing and he was close to tears.

"Crying worm? How unbecoming of a cultivator. Is this how you represent the pride of the heavenly empire?"

Shen Yuans hands clenched trying to hide but Shen QIngqiu smacked his face with a fan a soft slap to keep his face turned towards his.

If he was so easy towards a scolding what would a praise do? He should wait.

"Try again. If you spill on drop of ink you will be crushing inkstones for the whole palace until you get it right."

Shen Yuans eyes widened. There were tons of servants and schollars here who used inkstones and the wives alone used them for poetry and sending letters to their family!

His hands would die to arthitius.

With one final slap, with the fan. Shen Yuan moved back to continue his task. He was better this time. Tears staining his cheeks.

Shen Qingqiu face twitched hidden by his own fan. On second thought he might reconsider Luo Binghes ludacrous idea.

Shen Yuan hated him, he hated Shen Qingqiu- if he didn't value his life he would poison him in his sleep. He was running jim raggared and knew if he didn't have a vacation he was going to snap. After talking with Luo Binghe [more like begging] he was given a holiday leave.

Yay!

Shen Qingqiu was going with him "Oh Shen Yuan! I heard you were leaving the palace, I might go with you I need to stretch my legs."

Shen Yuan was lucky that Shen Qingqiu didn't need an entire party to go with him, both went alone with only their swords and tailsmans and even wore disguises. Seriously, Shen Yuan was going on this mission to save this village because it might have a rare demon that wasn't in his beastiary.

big action scene.

Shen Yuan began to draw the beast and even doted down the information in a column on the side. He felt Shen Qingqiu hover over his shoulder and began to break out in a cold sweat. He knew he wasn't a gifted artist, he just needed to draw them because he missed the fan-wiki page of PIDW. He just liked looking through it as a refresher for this world.

He heard Shen Qingqiu hum and prepared himself for the scathing comment.

"You're really good."

It slipped out, Shen Qingqiu scowled, but it was true. Shen Yuan was really good through this whole trip he never questioned why Shen Qingqiu went to the brothels for intel. Even seemed to agree with it and was respectable with the women it was pretty obvious that Shen Yuan wasn't interested in them that way. Helping the villagers and even knew what to say to reassure them, Shen Qingqiu only made things worse by breathing.

And his art was good and so was his calligraphy- making his own ink confused Shen Qingqiu though but alas, he wondered if maybe Shen Yuan had some talent for the four arts of Qing Jing peak.

He fantasised thoughts of having Shen Yuan as a disciple, but it ended the same as how he treat Luo Binghe.

"Hmm, thank you?" Shen Yuan spoke and noticed the other huff "Your art and calligraphy. Even your Beastiary is impressive. You should be a proud scholar."

He watched Shen Yuans stunned face, before he caught himself his face burning red and immiedietly ducked down his head his hair falling as a curtain to hide "T-Thank you Empress Shen."

No don't hide! Shen Qingqiu smirked behind his fan, who knew the worm had such a thin face?

Maybe he should get him a fan, he could paint it himself.

Luo Binghe had to smile behind his hand as he watched Shen Yuan trail behind his Shizun like a duck. How he was waiting for praise from his Shizun before his dejected look as he was shot down.

But compared to before, he realised this better than before. Usually Shen Yuan looked resentful Luo Binghe was worried he would have to do away with him for any assasination attempts.

But this looked more playful, Shen Yuan bounced back immedielty following his Shizun and chatting away while the other listened.

He knew kidnapping Shen Yuan was a good idea...

NSFW undercut

----------------

Shen Yuan couldn't believe this was happening, the sounds of skin slapping skin, watching how his cock was disapearing into a tight hole and as he pulled back the skin tugged on almost sucking him in. Shen Yuan was moaning clutching the soft skin as he chased his own pleasure. Shen QIngqiu wanted him to be loud.

"Empress Shen? Empress Shen does it feel good?"

He couldn't believe the things coming out of his mouth. This was dialouge from a shitty stallion novel.

But it just slipped out, like second nature. Shen Qingqiu was tied down his pale arms held tightly with red rope that hung snug against his pale flesh like a caress.

Shen Qingqiu was panting, only his breaths the only sound other than the wet squelch as Shen Yuan hips thrusted forward- almost possesed.

To think their relationship became like this- Shen Yuan was ignorant he had no idea Shen Qingqiu wanted him like this-

To be used.

But Shen Yuan was a servant, it couldn't hold a candle to both Shen Qingqiu and Luo Binghes relationship that was love.

Maybe this- being used, with no strings attatched would make their union much sweeter in comparison.

Shen Qingqiu responded, his legs shaking and his own neglected dick leaking pre-cum.

"Hey, what if someone walked in? Imagine their shook to see Empress Shen like this- being used by a servant like some common whore."

Shen Qingqiu tightened almost gasping that time.

"How does it feel being fucked by a worm Shen Qingqiu." he spoke his name, familiary then smirked "Shen - gege?" The other did gasp that time.

"You love it, this one thinks you want to be caught," He panted his arms laying on the bed as he leaned over the Empress his hips pistoning in and out, in and out-

"You want others to see how dirty you are,"

No- wrong thing to say.

Shen Qingqiu didn't react, but his breathing hitched, and his movements stuttered.

"Maybe Luo Binghe might come in and watch." Shen Yuan tried with a slow role of his hips.

"Seeing his husband being pleasured by a pathetic worm like me. You think I'm lower than dirt but what does that make you?" He spoke but was still gauging Shen Qingqiu's reaction.

He was back to moving again now moaning, almost spurring Shen Yuan on.

"Seeing the Empress like this, you're so messy."

Messy was fine, that was okay to say.

"You're just a hole to be filled up." Shen Yuan snapped his hips going faster and purposfully missing that spot.

"Do you want to cum? You have to ask nicely..."

Shen Qingqiu scowled and Shen Yuan hummed "Fine then, be that way." Shen Yuan latched onto Shen Qingqius ass and began to thread the skin as he felt close to coming, Shen Qingqiu was sopping wet, precum dribbling down his thigh. He was so sloppy.

Shen Yuan came with a grunt still grinding his hips to empty himself in Luo Binghe's first husband.

Shen Qingqiu was panting into the sheets, his thighs shaking his cock twitching and looking painful.

Shen Yuan kissed his back "shh, Shen-Gege, I won't neglect you."

Shen Yuan moved back and grimaced when he pulled out with a tug feeling sensitive and heard Shen Qingqiu gasp.

"Y-You vile worm how fucking dare you!"

Shen Yuan flinched, he almost forgot Shen Qingqiu asked for this. He smiled, but it was all bravado. Shen Qingqiu was scary and this was close to being hot...but was also scary if he messed up- he was a virign for gods sake and here he was acting like an experienced Dom in a BDSM scene!?

Well they say fake it till you make it.

"Aw, is Shen Qingqiu feeling left out?" At least he'd read tons of hentai and Stallion novels. "Just Relax, This one will serve Empress Shen to the best of his abilities." He quipped hearing Shen Qingqiu grumble and curse him out calling him worm.

Which had Shen Yuan shiver, Shen Qingqiu had a thing for pet names, Beast for Binghe. Maybe he should call his Empress something.

Raging cat was not gonna slide.

He watched as Shen Qingqiu's hold twitched almost begging him to be filled again. But he emptied himself and watched how Shen Qingqiu was twitching, his stomach rumbling. That couldn't be good.

He carresed his thigh and raised his hand to his plump ass, he kneaded the skin then his index finger pushed into the twitching hole. He watched as his finger was sucked up and began to flex his finger as he massaged Shen Qingqiu's ass at the same time. It wasn't enough as he avoided his spot.

"Get off me- I'll kill you!"

Shen Yuan hummed, "Are you sure about that? You'll look me in the eye and remember what this one did to you- the places he's touched." He used his other hand and pressed his thumb and finger together to make a ring then pressed his hand feeling Shen Qingqiu's cock pushing through his fingers before he began to stroke him, feeling the skin on Shen Qingqius cock tug and he pulled down feeling his hand began to slicken as he began to slowly stroke Shen Qingqius cock with only two fingers tightly held around it as they stroked up and down almost milking him as he other hand began to push in and out of his ass in a rythm.

"Stop-you vile insect!" Shen Qingqiu's voice wavered and Shen Yuan knew he was doing okay.

He heard the sounds and began to brush against that spot, feeling Shen Qingiu twitch, he moved his hands faster and faster watching how Shen Qingqiu tensed.

He could edgeplay...but not for their first time...

He ripped his finger out and watched as his cum began sputtering out before he watched as Shen Qingqiu's ass gaped open then closed as his cum began to leak out making a huge mess on the bed. Shen Qingqiu cried out his hips stuttering as he came.

He collapsed and immedietly Shen Yuan stood untying the robes and pushing his Qi to soothe the man.

He began to clean up, taking a warm wet towel and wiping Shen Qingqiu down. He had already made sure his insides were fine and once the bed sheets were removed began to tuck Shen Qingqiu into bed who seemed to be in a daze.

Both Shen Qingqiu and Luo Binghe would have a bath later.

Shen Yuan climbed into the bed and lay onto of Shen Qingqiu. After that and Shen Yuan was the little spoon, but he liked being held.

Shen Qingqiu took his hands brushing his thumb back and forth-

Oh Shen Yuan was shaking.

"Did you hate it?" Shen Qingqiu asked softly, voice bereft from judgment. "No! no I liked it..."

There was a But in there.

They had to talk about this though, Shen Yuan insisted on it. What he liked about the scene what he didn't like.

"I noticed you don't like me saying dirty."

He felt Shen Qingqiu tensed and kept talking "I don't need to know- I won't say it again...does Luo Binghe know?"

"Yes." The other said tensley and Shen Yuan relaxed "Good, now I'll know not to say it. Empress Shen-" "Shen Yuan you've fucked me. Lets drop the formalities."

Shen Yuans face burned red, Shen Qingqiu!?

"But thats not what bothered you." Shen Qingqiu stated and Shen Yuan sighed, his breath tickling the others skin.

"I don't like...using you. This 'blackmail' play is fun but I don't want to do it all the time," He pressed a soft kiss to the others chest before nuzzling him. "I want to serve Empress Shen, spoil you, treat you how you deserve." He failed to see Shen Qingqius eyes widen.

"What if I liked to be forced? Forced to submit, since I will never willingly let others touch me."

Shen Yuan spoke feeling tired and trying to stay awake, they had to talk about this if they were going to continue.

"Well bullying you is one thing. But this whole "wow a servent is fucking you," Shen Yuan made a bleh face, it was a typical rape revenge fantasy that he was not a fan off. It was not it his poison. But he was curious about the type of Hentai Shen Qingqiu wanted.

"Bullying? How would you bully me?"

"By spoiling you? You can still be tied up, but I would just try to make you sweetly ask to be fucked. Change the roles a bit,"

"How so?" "Well I would ask, what would you ask from this servent? Want me to touch you here? Suck here? Please direct this useless servant, but this one knows Empress Shen is too proud, so this one would build up the pleasure, tease you have you on the edge before your a shaking crying mess."

He felt Shen Qingqiu hands twitch, and Shen Yuan kept speaking "Or you could use me? I think theres an array or cultivation technqiue to keep someone hard, you could use me take your pleasure and leave me to deal with it myself." His own cock twitched at that. Using Shen Qingqiu then being used himself. Both were just toys to one another until Luo Binghe comes in.

He felt Shen Qingqiu suddenly adjust his position and straddled Shen Yuan who blinked confused.

"Those all sound interesting." Shen Qingqiu spoke almost considering, but his hard length against his length made it obvious how much he liked some of his ideas.

But- Shen Yuan was tired he couldn't do anything-

Shen Qingqiu huffed reading his mind "Be a good servent and let me use you." He told Shen Yuan to press his thighs together tight and Shen Yuan gasped as he felt Shen Qingqiu pushed through his cock grinding against his own length clutching his ass and he kept Shen Yuans thights together and thrusted shallowly through them.

Shen Yuan moaned his own cock giving a valiant twitch as Shen Qingqius kept pushing against at it, grinding and making a sloppy mess of his thighs chasing his release. Imagining what he could do to Shen Yuan now that he realised being tied up and used wasn't the only thing he wanted.

He'll admit, usually Binghe was strong enough to hold him down and be rough. If Shen Yuan was too scared to try some of the things he and Binghe did on the regular thats fine.

A thought of making Shen Yuan watch, watch Binghe take Shen Qingqiu apart showing how much the older wanted to be used to forget his name to enter that dreamy floaty state.

But Shen Yuan was inexperienced, it was obvious. He must of taking notes from yellow books of all things. Typical.

But Shen Yuan was a fast study and mostly open to most of Shen Qingqiu's desires.

Yes, Luo Binghe made a right choice in choosing his concubine. And with him being prepped it would make his time with Binghe easier.

He wasn't some self lubricating women so this was a big help!

Once Shen Yuan slept after staining his thighs, Shen Qingqiu left the rooms to have his back with Binghe who returned from his own wife.

Would Shen Yuan be countered as his wife?

Thinking on it he laughed at how accurate it was, he liked carriages, sweets was way too delicate and sensitive, even in bed he acted like a clingy mistress.

"What are you laughing at."

"Shen Yuan." He spoke bluntly and felt Luo Binghe hum his hands exploring the soft bruises and felt Shen Qingqius hole his fingers exploring and his blood parasites flooded to that area to make sure his first husband was uninjured.

"this master is fine, just had a silly thought." he admitted then scowled slapping Luo Binghes arm "Stop- water will go in."

He felt Luo Binghe mouth against one of Shen Yuans bruises digging his teeth in deeper, was he possesive? Wanted to have an indirect taste to Shen Yuan? Thought the other was too soft and the bruises should be deeper?

The last one Shen Qingqiu could agree. Shen Yuan was so timid. Once he realised how much Shen Qingqiu could take he probably wouldn't hold back anymore.

"Timid hmm?"

Shen Qingqiu nodded with a groan "Yes, and I won't blame inexperience. You were like a beast." He think he tore something and felt Luo Binghe's sharp grin against his skin.

He manuvered Shen Qingqiu ignored his squawking his he impaled him onto his cock, the other grunted his hands clenching and gripping Luo Binghes arm almost ripping bloody marks into his arms.

"You beast-" He cut off as Luo Binghe with no fanfare picked Shen Qingqiu up fucking him up and down on his cock, the water sloshing around and Shen Qingqiu's pants echoed around the room.

"Look at your stomach, did you reach that deep?"

With Cultivation Shen Qingqiu knew he could take this demonic cock, he glanced down his own stomach portruding and saw the cock head bump up and down his flesh expanding with each thrust, his cock twitched at the sight that something that huge was inside him.

"No- I didn't see."

He doubted it. Binghe was a monster. Luo Binghe preened but Shen Qingqiu gave a huff.

Size literally didn't matter, Shen Yuan was so close to his spot and could've pleasured him perfectly, Shen Qingqiu thought he was just bad at it.

But his fingers knew exactly where it was after he was done. But Binghe's cock went so far to the point of painful, just being full wasn't enough when that spot was further down and being ignored.

He felt the beast move faster and Shen Qingqiu felt teeth at his throat he almost blacked out, being used by Binghe was always intense. Usually Luo Binghe would massage him, slowly using creams on his body and edging him before entering him. Thanks to Shen Yuan's prep they were able to skip to the main part.

The only thing Shen Qingqiu was grateful for. Is that both he and Binghe would never tire of one another.

"...I wish you would share him. I want to see how this person pleases my first husband." Shen Qingqiu wanted to be jeleaous. But strangely enough. He liked Shen Yuan.

Outside of the bedroom he just fit with the two. He was becoming Luo Binghe's third hand almost taking over Mobei-Jun. Anyone else Shen Qingqiu would be suspicious. But he knew that his A-yuan was just stupid. He loved beasts, and liked to journey with Luo Binghe to save a nearby village to document them. He knew he loved the demons more than wanting to sneak with his husband because he always went on the intersting missions with anyone. Shang Qinghua mostly and Shen Qingqiu. Shen Qingqiu knew most would use this to curry favour. Not Shen Yuan he was excited and began to go into detail about all the demons he read about.

They didn't even have sex!?

Shen Qingqiu was fuming when he got back, much to Luo Binghe's confusion. And he saw how Shen Yuan only loved Binghe was his library. Shen Qingqiu has never felt more irritated and wrong footed but also...he knew deep down that someone like Shen Yuan could leave. He could be stationed somewhere else and Shen Qingqiu didn't want that.

Luo Binghe was always attentive and knew the thought process of his Shizun. He knew his Shizun grew attacthed to Shen Yuan just like he was attatched to Ning Yingying and Sha hualing and Liu Mingyan. His shizun accepted it.

Both knew that they didn't love, love was a fairytale and it wasn't real.

Obession. Finding something worse holding onto to benefit yourself, that they understood. Which was why they were husbands why Shen Qingqiu and Binghe were Emprorer and Empress. Both were of the same mindset, not so simple as their wives and concubines. They knew they were broken and weren't enough for a relationship which was why they had others to fill in the pieces.

They knew if they had to let them go they would. But Luo Binghe would never allow Shen Qingqiu to leave, and vice verse. It seemed unhealthy. But that obsession with each other. Knowing that the other would fall to torture to keep them there- for someone like Shen Qingqiu who wanted safety and stability latched onto this like a safety net.

And Luo Binghe's entire drive his need for revenge which then turned to ownership was what kept him reliant on his Shizun without him, he would be adrift. So would Shen Qingqiu.

Both knew they were poisnious and ruined any relaionships, take Yue QIngyuan and Ning yingying for example they ruined everything they touched and most of their drives and passions were too much- too scary for others sensitive ideals.

And yet Luo Binghe and Shen Qingqiu made each other better, they became more healthy working together ironically and improved their stations but also their frame of mind. They knew how to navigate one another and the mind games was what made it fun.

[Shen Qingqiu knew he could run away and Luo Binghe knew he would be too impressed to leave him be and not chase him]

But none of them would say it outloud, they understood each other. The others didn't-

Except for Shen Yuan. He looked at them and saw them. He didn't have judgment and even encouraged their relationship yet never said what they should or shouldn't be doing.

"You're still together? You obviously know something that I don't."

Not once has anyone spoken about their relationship and had respect that they knew what they were doing, and Shen Yuan almost knew their wavelengths. Almost being he was wary of Luo Binghe, sweating buckets thinking he would fall to Xin Mo for touching his husband.

It was almost funny, he saw how Luo Binghe's eyes would light up almost wanting to bully Shen Yuan.

To 'teach' him a lesson, Shen Yuan had the type of face that you couldn't help but want to tease and get a reaction from he made it so easy. And being scared? Sweating buckets but also blushing when he remembered just how he had Empress Shen the follwoing morning and pretended that nothing was wrong.

How Luo Binghe didn't pounce on him and bend him over-

Shen Qingqiu was impressed at his restraint but also disapointed...

oh that was a startling thought- he found he didn't mind Luo Binghe taking Shen Yuan. Unless he was watching or even participating.

When he invited Shen Yuan over, Shen Qingqiu didn't believe in talking it out. He gave Luo Binghe his blessing and instead sat at a table going his his correspondence with Yue Qingyuan. It was always a hassle and something he put off. Once he had a good incentive to respond would he do it in a timely manner so he could enjoy his reward later.

That would be Shen Yuan walking through the door.

And being slammed into the wall by Luo Binghe as he practically devoured his face, Shen Yuan let out a meep like a startled animal before melting into the kiss as he realised he wasn't going to die.

"Y-Your highness?" Shen Yuan spoke confused and saw Luo Binghes dark grin as he descened, Shen Yuan watched in a daze before Luo Binghe began to pull his robes back stroking his dick.

The protagonist was on his knees in front of him "Your highness!?"

Shen Qingqiu huffed "Shen Yuan, I think we are well past formalities you can call him Binghe, or beast." Shen Qingqiu sneered and heard Luo Binghes huff of amusement

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💗   

Grabbed this from @goldentruth813. It was hard to pick favorites, but I stuck to completed works and tried to grab a sampling from a couple other fandoms besides VLD to shine a light on.

The Bracelet of Mitrana (T, Sheith): During a diplomatic visit, Keith catches the attention of the leader's daughter. She uses an ancient artifact to force Keith to remain with her as her new husband. But Shiro and Team Voltron have something to say about that.

My zine piece for @mersheithzine, which has been a highlight of my time in the Voltron fandom.

Rebuilding Reality (T, Sheith): Keith is running from his problems when he gets tossed through a portal to another reality. His fight to return sets off a series of unexpected events.

My contribution to fixing the disaster that was Season 8.

Searches (T, Sheith): Shiro has disappeared. Keith isn't taking it at all well as he tries to lead Voltron.

I’m still proud of how this one turned out, taking an idea for how Season 3 could have started and putting it together.

Vendetta (T, Sherlolly): Sherlock must find out why Molly Hooper is one of a select group of people being targeted before the assassin can finish the job. Set between "The Blind Banker" and "The Great Game". Hints of future Sherlolly.

I was pretty happy with the mystery plotline I came up with for this one while I indulged in pre-relationship Sherlock and Molly.

Hold Page One! (T, background Harry/Hermione): Hermione's ban on Rita Skeeter is about to expire, and she has a plan to give the reporter a very special scoop. What kind of stories will Rita chase now? And will it backfire on Hermione? H/Hr if you squint.

This one is a favorite because I took a character that was almost universally disliked and gave her reasons to do better.

I was tagged bu @bavariansugarcookie (thanks you!)

To be perfectly honest I was nervous about this because…. I think most of the time it’s for the purpose of bonding over common interests… but if I answer the questions honestly I often come up with random niche things, or even things that are well known in my country but not to people outside of it, and it’s often expected that your response will be something, well, that USA-Americans will have at least heard of (or can find with a quick search if they’re interested in it). So often I will end up talking about a book that wasn’t even translated in English and hear crickets. Or a lot of the music I listen to ends up being small local stuff or random youtube instrumental playlist I put on as background music while writing / drawing instead of a cool song people will know… Like, genuinely, what do you do about these memes if you response is something weird no-one will know? Do you just go for the closest answer where people will get the reference? Especially if you’re not USA-American or if you have other roots? (genuinely curious! you’re welcome to answer in the comments, just don’t reblog pls).

So. Sorry I’ll probably over-explain and speak of things no one really cares about…

1. 3 ships: sheith, Ineffable Husbands, Imodna

2. first ever ship: Lol, I’m not even sure what that means. I think the first (non canon) ship I was invested in was the main characters from a Belgian comic series called “Les tuniques bleues” ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Tuniques_Bleues). They kept acting as if they didn’t like each other while CLEARLY caring a whole lot and saving each other’s lives and I had a lot of feels about it that I could not really explain! Like I started reading this when I was like, 10, until high-school lol. I had no words to put on those feelings, and no idea of the concept of shipping but now I can quite confidently say that I did ship them lol.

But idk. I also liked Leïla and Han in Star Wars as a kid for example. It’s hard to pin, really.

If you want something you’re more likely to know, and from a time I was in fandom, Kyo and Tohru in Fruitsbaket? (but I was not in the English side of fandom so ships were not such a big deal, even here for a shojo that had a love triangle lol). If you want more like, non-canon ships you’d have both Nana in, well, Nana (by Ai Yazawa).

If you want the first ship where I actually looked for fan content, then probably L x Light in Death Note ?

And then the first ship I actually got involved with (English speaking) fandom was sheith.

But tbh while I realized—late—that I always had ships, I don’t always care about ships in the stories I like.  I’m just as much likely to get invested in platonic relationships, friends, found families, or actual families.

3. last song: see, after going to the movies (see next question), we went to grab a beer and there was live music band. They did some classic songs (the first one was “Don’t Worry Be Happy”, and I remember Toxic and Hotel California), but mostly it was original songs they have composed. They do have an online presence and I thought about sharing a clip of one of the songs they played, then I remembered it’s a small local group and people on the internet are weird and creepy  (and I mean ants just as much or even more than your regular creep) so… 🤷 Ask me in dms if you’re a moot and interested I guess.

4. last movie: went to see Everything Everywhere All at Once for the 2nd time tonight. It was great.

5. currently reading: For the reference most people will get, I just finished Exit Strategy from the Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells, which I loved (super fond of this series).

I’m also reading “Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine”  by Gail Honeyman, we have a book-club for it in one of my discords. I wouldn’t have picked it up myself and I’m glad I am actually reading it because I’m enjoying the way the main character is such an unreliable narrator and am curious of seeing things unfold.

I’m also reading “Le château des poisons” by Serge Brussolo (Castle of Poisons), because a friend lend it to me super long ago and I want to give it back when I see her next week. I’m meh about it: the setting (a mystery set in medieval France) is interesting and I want to know how the plot with be solved (if it will be), but this sort of gritty representation of medieval times is not my cup and the characters are a bit cliché.

For fanfic, I finished “Heart Nailed Open” by Perfchan this morning and I loved it so so much!!! I also have a bunch of books about art from the library…

6. currently watching: Trigun stampede (I’ve been procrastinating the end because I need to be emotionally ready lol). And Critical Role campaign 3 (also need to catch up with Vox Machina s2).

7. currently consuming: ...easter chocolates

8. currently craving: tea (always lol)
