#everyone has to look at me is the thing fjdkf

[itwoodbeprefect]

for the fic writing ask game: 7, 11, and 20!!

7. How do you choose which POV to write from?

i think i rarely make a deliberate choice, actually! close third-person is my jam (as it is with most fic), and within those parameters usually a specific POV just sort of... happens, maybe based on the first bit of description that fits well or that has a fun observation in it, and then i roll with that. occasionally i'll realize i've been writing a lot from one POV within a given ship and go looking for good angles for a fic with the opposite POV, and outsiders are always fun when there's the slightest reason to do it.

11. Link your three favorite fics right now

20. Have you noticed any patterns in your fics? Words/expressions that appear a lot, themes, common settings, etc?

fjdkf after this ask game made me look up "blinks", i can't not lead with that. but yeah, in general - themes of belonging, love in simple everyday things, feeling secure in your place. and i think i've said this before, but... the dishes. everyone is always doing the dishes, because it's the perfect recurring domestic chore that i can use as a sort of cheatcode backdrop to have Actions in my Feelings and Dialogue, in a way that can say a lot in itself. (what are they cleaning up? who's doing what? how are they doing it?) also, on a related note, characters are very, very often just hanging out at home in my fic - if they're not, and the fic is mostly talking, then there's a decent chance that at some point they WERE home and i picked them up and moved them because they need to get outside once in a while. (i am a good, responsible fictional character owner (who owns nothing).)

OC THING 1, 23, 31, 39

1. Have you ever picked up a habit from developing/writing one of your own characters? And if so, who and what?

I stopped swearing for a while but writing Julius has completely ruined any chances of me stopping ever again

I started puffing up my left cheek when I get annoyed or in deep (but not serious) thought, just like Eises

23. Have you ever seen something/someone that looks like one of your characters IRL? What was it like?

I've seen quite a few pretty ladies who look a lot like Caliena! Especially in her hair. It always makes me do a double take but I try to make a conscious effort not to stare OTL

31. Which OC do you wish you had more art of? (Recieved, making yourself, etc.)

Oh literally anyone it doesn't matter to me! Draw my ocs and I'll love you forever

As for making art myself....same answer fjdkf I need to draw everyone more

39. What’s your favorite part to draw on a certain character?

Pecs and abs >v> and eyes

Also any animal characteristics they have! Like their ears, horns, tails, etc.
