Teenage Dirtbags - Soul Eater, Soul/Maka

5) Do you respond to comments?

I try to reply to all of them, yes! If I miss one it is an oversight and not a slight.

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

I don't write angsty endings who the fuck do you think I am I write this shit to feel good lmao (I do write angst, I just don't. Leave it there. Usually.) I guess Where were you, when I was new? if you squint.

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

Take On Me, I suppose? Most of my fics tend to end pretty en media res, so they're not really ENDED ykwim. This is a cop-out answer.

8) Do you get hate on fics?

Not really? I've certainly gotten a few folks who Missed The Point Entirely but it didn't really feel like hate tbh.

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

lol yes. The vampire got me acting up. I have written sweet to nasty where he's involved.

10) Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

Only once and it was Soul Eater and Empire Records lmao. It was good I don't care.

11) Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not to my knowledge but I also haven't really looked.

12) Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes! Into Italian once.

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

I've done bangs where I worked alongside artists as their writer, so in that sense, yes.

14) What’s your all time favorite ship?

IDK it's probably honestly SoMa in my heart but I truly enjoy so many.

15) What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Budding Trees. I had such plans for that fic. Then life happened. Alas.

16) What are your writing strengths?

I kick dialogue's ass and I'm pretty good at hitting plot beats.

17) What are your writing weaknesses?

Repetitiveness, getting bogged down in detail.

18) Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I will do it for fake languages (see: elvish) and I'll occasionally portray bilingual characters who incorporate their native language, but full-on dialogue? Not really. There is so much nuance in a native language that I don't feel I could do justice unless I'm fluent.

19) First fandom you wrote for?

Dawson's Creek. Shut your mouth.

20) Favorite fic you’ve written?

Not Your Sweetheart has achieved a special status in my heart, I will admit. But honestly if I didn't love it I probably wouldn't post it, so I have feelings about most of my work.

I will tag @brain-rot-central, @cinnamontails-ff, @olivedrop, and uh whoever else wants to grab it honestly.

Author question tag game thing

Thanks for the tag, @waitingondaisies!

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

- 76

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

- 619,841

3. What fandoms do you write for?

I've only written for Marvel, and most specifically Irondad. I'm curious to see if that will change at some point.

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Emergency Contacts 1684 words

Cutting Remarks 5754 words

Better Than I Was 1969 words

Sick Day Shouldas 2631 words

Outside Insights 3201 words (All of these are from my Strands in the Rope series!)

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

I try really hard to respond to almost every comment. But I'm slow sometimes.

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

Pretty sure none of my fics are angsty at the end. But there's a lot still up in the air in Visiting Hours and it's not a real fix-it. Mostly just some comfort after a bunch of bad (thanks, Marvel) stuff.

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

Um, they pretty much all have happy endings. But maybe From the Same Star, or its sequel, Cracks in the Soul.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

No? Not yet? But a few people who have disagreed with things, or pointed some weaknesses out, which is fine.

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

I do not.

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

They don't usually appeal to me.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I know of?

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Not that I know of.

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

Not completely

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

Maybe Spock and Uhura (from the reboot)? Or honestly, Peter and Hallie from my soulmate stories. I'm a little more into found family than romance right now, but I still enjoy it.

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

The AU of my AU. I started writing it because I was so curious about it, but I don't know if I'll ever post it or not, and if I never post it, I won't have any perceived pressure to help me finish it. ADHD (for me) means

16. What are your writing strengths?

Communication and characterization? I've had some good look with my OC's so far, and people (including me) have really liked them, so that's fun.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Brevity, action scenes, favoring best-outcomes instead of realism, plot in general.

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

It's rough. I'll do short phrases in Italian (and I've been studying it in duolingo for like 5 months now, just because I wish I was better at it) but I usually opt to write it out in English and delineate that they're speaking something else.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Marvel

20. Favourite fic you’ve written?

How could I possibly choose? Several are favorites for different reasons. I feel like I just want to cheat here and say Strands in the Rope. If it wasn't split into different stories, it'd just be a 180k story... (encompassing like 2 years)
