2023 Fic Year in Review

I wasn't tagged in this, but I saw it floating around and wanted to preserve it for myself since I accomplished a lot this past year ❤️

List of Fics Completed this Year

Forever's In Your Grasp

Green With Envy

Custody

Little Shop of Flowers

Drive

No Regrets

Obliviously Devoted

Catalyst of Change

Number of Words Written

120,199

Your Most Popular Fic

Popular seems like such an arbitrary word, but I'll go simply based on ao3 kudos and say Obliviously Devoted.

Your Personal Fave

Catalyst of Change

You Fav Scene

Probably the scene in Catalyst of Change where Henry plays the piano for Alex.

A Fic or Scene that Challenged You

Continuing Heartschool after the MCs have gotten together has been really challenging. Even though the story isn't finished, it often feels like the steam is gone, so keeping up my motivation has been difficult.

A Line of Writing You’re Proud Of

Alex continues to gape at him, as Henry holds out his stolen agency on a silver platter. It's mangled and barbed and needs to be melted down and reforged, but it's his. It's theirs to take.

A Comment that Touched You

All comments mean so much to me, so I couldn't single one out, but someone did describe a fic I wrote as like drinking tea on a rainy day, and I honestly couldn't ask for more than that.

Something that Inspired Your Writing

A lot (and I do mean A LOT) of fanfic reading

Your proudest accomplishment (that one scene; finally finishing that one fic; posting your first fic; etc):

Writing a 17k word one-shot that wound up being one of my favorite pieces I've ever written

Do You Have Any Writing Goals for Next Year?

Finishing Heartschool would be a huge one! But honestly, I just want to keep creating.

Thank you so, so much to all the readers that have come along with me in 2023!

For my age up to a teenager day, my older sister made me a cake. After my dad was done celebrating, I made a phone call to sign up for Chess Team. I went to my dresser to plan some new outfits since I was no longer a child, and then went to bed.

On my first day of Highschool after talking to the principal and looking at my class schedule, it was time for the day to start; I was in Classroom 1 and recognized no one. I sat in the back of the classroom and a guy with blond hair sat at the desk next to me.

I wasn’t hungry since I had breakfast this morning, so I went down to the basement to play some chess, a requirement of Chess Team. While I was pondering some moves, a guy with brunette hair, that I recognized from class earlier, sat down across from me, but he didn’t join in on the chess game. He introduced himself to me as Ben, and I could tell immediately that we had bad compatibility, but then he flirted with me and the romantic in me decided it could be fun to flirt back.

Soon the bell for the second class rang so we left the basement. Half way up the stairs, Ben started jogging to class and he sat in the front where there were no available seats. I sat down and noticed that the blond guy from earlier was at the desk next to me again.

When class was over, I thought it might be a good idea to make a friend or two. I politely introduced myself to the blond guy, finding out his name is Nick, and we got along right from the get go. We talked about our interests and hobbies before he had to leave to go to football practice. I learned that Nick is really into fitness and is already football captain.

On my second day in Highschool, I was running late since I stayed up too late the night prior doing some extra credit homework, so I decided I was going to take a shower at school during morning break. Once I got to the second floor, I heard some voices in the break room next to the gym. I thought I heard Ben’s voice so I was going to go say hi right quick, and saw him and some girl I don’t know kissing. I turned around and took a sad shower before going to class.

During lunch break I sent Ben three mean messages on Social Bunny and talked to Nick for a while. Before I had to go to Chess Team, Ben came up to me and started yelling insults at me like I was part plant and alien. He then started insulting my existence, and before I could reply Nick came up of nowhere told Ben to go away and surprisingly, he listened. Nick tried to cheer me up, but due to my gloomy nature, it didn’t do much. My performance at the Chess Team that evening really suffered, but I have an aspiration to be captain of the Chess Team so I can’t miss any club meeting.

Thankfully the next day was Saturday, so I didn’t have school but I still work up at 6am due to routines. Around 8, Nick texted me that he adopted a dog and asked if I wanted to come over and meet them; of course, I wanted to meet his new dog! After hanging out for a while he asked me if I wanted to go to prom with him as friends. I didn’t have any other friends and Nick and I get along really well, so I said yes. We had a good time at prom, but I didn’t go to the after prom get together because I was tired. Before I left the auditorium Nick asked me if I would be his best friend and I said yes. I felt very happy that night and slept really well.

Sunday, I did my homework, played some chess, and a school project. Around 6, Nick called me and asked me if I wanted to go to the Romance Festival with him since it was in town. Neither one of us had been to the Romance Festival before, but we were told we had to try the tea. I’m not sure what was in that tea but we both ended up feeling very flirty. Long story short it wasn’t very long until we were sharing our first kiss together.

That night when I got home, I felt very confident. Right before I was about to go to bed, I decided to look out my window and saw Nick standing on my front porch! I ran down the stairs and before I could say anything, he asked me if I would be his boyfriend. Of course, I wanted to be his boyfriend!

The next was eventful. On Monday we went on a boba tea and thrift shopping date, Tuesday we went to his and had a pillow fight. On Wednesday I got a call saying I could graduate Highschool early if I wanted to, but I decided I would miss seeing Nick all day, so I declined. After Chess Team I started working on my promproposal sign for Nick, since this Saturday would be our only prom as boyfriends.

On Thursday morning before classes I was going to ask Nick to go to the prom with me, when I saw him doing the T-Pose challenge with some other guys on the football team. Fortunately, Nick has a really high fitness level and was able to hold the T-Pose until it was time for class to start, unfortunately, that meant that I couldn’t ask him to prom.

During lunch break, I asked Nick to sit with me in the computer lab before we went to get lunch and asked him to prom; he was very happy and said yes. After school that day we went to his to mess around, since he has a double bed, for a while before we did homework together and I went home.

At prom on Saturday, we sweetheart danced together and took silly photos together in the photobooth. This time we did go to the after prom get together at the pier with our friends. We talked to them for a little bit before deciding to mess around on the cuddle carts then going to our separate homes for the night.

25, 42, 61 - "Slippery Tropes", 75 - please 😘

25. What’s your favorite part of the writing process (worldbuilding, brainstorming/outlining, writing, editing, etc)

Definitely brainstorming. It’s so fun to flesh out those little nuggets of ideas into something that feels REAL. It’s exciting. Until the actual work begins, which is decidedly less fun.

42. What’s your favorite title that you’ve come up with?

I’ll be honest, I don’t come up with most of my titles. My beta does because I’m shit at it, but I did come up with Slippery Tropes which I think is still hilarious to this day.

61. In Slippery Tropes what’s your favorite scene that you wrote?

It’s been SO long since I read this one, but I always love in any fic when Mamoru meets the parents and flounders because of how kind they are to him.

75. Is there a particular fic that readers gravitated towards that you didn’t expect?

I know you’re a Sailor Moon lover so, for Sailor Moon I’d probably say Hikari was a surprise, just because so many people were invested at the height of it.

But over all the fics and fandoms I’ve written for and in I’d have to say I’ve been blown away by the Heartstopper fandom and their response to Heartschool.

Thank you so much for the ask! ❤️

[uglygreenjacket]

13 for ao3 wrap!

Oh, hi. Hello. Thank you so much for the ask <3

13. What’s your longest work of the year?

Heartschool is my longest for the year by far. It's not even 30k yet, so that's not saying all that much, but it will undoubtedly become the longest thing I've written by the time it's finished.

After his tumultuous teenage years, Charlie Spring is content leading a quiet life as an English teacher at Truham Grammar School. But when he meets the new PE teacher, Nick Nelson, Charlie's world is quickly turned upside down, and he finds he's all too willing to let it happen.

Charlie’s fingers brushed against skin, and he nearly jumped at the jolt of electricity that ran down his arm at the contact. His eyes flew up and he felt his world turn upside down.

Warm brown eyes clashed with his. Eyes that belonged to a handsome face with a strong jaw and a scruffy beard with a hint of red in it. Dirty blonde hair sat atop his head, pushed perfectly to the side as if it didn’t need a salon’s worth of product to do so, and his neck gave way to a pair of the broadest shoulders Charlie had ever seen.

Fuck.

“Hi,” the man said with a boyish grin.

That one word felt like it held the key to all of life’s problems.

“Hi,” Charlie responded, his voice coming out as a breathy mess.

WIP GAME

I was tagged by @tinacentury and @floraone who, bless them, believed in me enough to actually think I have WIPs 😂

Rules: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it! And then tag as many people as you have wips. (You can make your own post or reblog this one!)  I have deemed that this isn’t just for writing either. Sketch titles? Comics? Dnd campaigns? If you have an unfinished project, it counts!!

Currently posting:

· Propositions – Dramione fake dating

· Find Your Way Back – BNHA Tododeku childhood friends reunite AU

· Heartschool – Hearstopper AU, Adult Charlie and Nick meet as teachers

Currently existing in my head or as a note on my phone:

· Sailor Moon- Smutember fic x2

· Sailor Moon The Office AU

· Dramione- roomates

· Dramione- Draco memory loss

· Dramione - step-dad Draco

· Tododeku- Stalker AU w/ policeman Shoto & elementary teacher Izuku

· Tododeku- Adoptive parent Izuku & Hero Shoto

It’s strange to me to have works across 4 different fandoms, but as I told FloraOne the other day, this is supposed to be fun, and I am going to have my fun! In other words, sorry/not really sorry for the chaotic mess my posting is these days 😂
