AO3 Fic Tag Game :)

I was tagged by: @burntblueberrywaffles @suchaladyy @cosmic-lullaby and @nonamemanga

20 questions beneath the cut 😛

How many works do you have on ao3?

26!

What is your ao3 word count?

125,134

What fandoms do you write for?

I write for Wednesday, The Hunger Games, and I'm thinking of maybe writing some Walking Dead fics, we will see! Right now I am focusing on my Wednesday fics though till I finish them.

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

His Little Bedbug

Tipsy Truth Telling

I'll See You Around

Take You Like A Drug

Can't Keep Quiet

Do you respond to comments?

Always! I love responding to comments

What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

This is hard to say, so I guess I will list three LOL. Well, I think first place is definitely A Hyde Only Knows One Thing: Pain. But the runner-ups are Don't Let Go of Me, and Nowhere to Go.

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

Most of my fics have happy endings because I love happy endings! I love peace and love and joy! But I guess the happiest ending would be Smoke Signals as it is a growing-back-together/reconciliation fics that carries over to Say Yes to Heaven. And I also wanna throw in This Would Have Happened Anyway, which is an old Hunger Games fic I wrote that I plan to go in and re-edit soon haha.

Do you get hate on fics?

Rarely, but yes. I think the only fic I got hate on has been A Burning Hill. Luckily most people are wonderful!

Do you write smut? What kind?

Yes, LOL. Idk what the different kinds of smut are? but I tend to write established relationship smut, it is my fav. I write it pretty graphically, but I like to make it really sweet and comforting. I love romance!

Do you write crossovers?

No, but I think they are neat

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes!!! Smoke Signals was translated into Thai by the amazing @adogfrmhell :)

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Yes! I co-wrote Take You Like A Drug with my bestie @suchaladyy, and also Wash Away Your Woes with @nonamemanga @suchaladyy and @averyaddamsromance ! it is so fun to cowrite with friends : D

What WIP would you like to finish but doubt you ever will?

I know I will finish it, but A Burning Hill! it is just on the backburner for a while longer.

What's your all time favorite ship?

I guess I'd say everlark because they were my first ever ship! they are just so cozy and forever in my heart.

What are your writing strengths?

I'd say showing emotion and imagery! I have been told I am able to make eyes water and hearts swoon hehe

What are your writing weaknesses?

I just wont shut up sometimes LOL, i tend to give almost too many details and too much imagery. Which I know is not inherently a bad thing, but it makes all my writing pieces so goddamn long lol! I start to feel like Bram Stoker writing Dracula XD. And sometimes I feel like my dialogue can be awkward, which I suppose makes it more realistic, so once again not always bad! i am just best at writing neurodivergent characters maybe hahah

thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I have done this very briefly before, but it was just two words in Spanish for a ritual scene! I would not write tons of dialogue in another language unless I had a beta who spoke that language fluently and who could translate and make sure the translation made sense.

First fandom you ever wrote for?

The Walking Dead! when i was like 12 I wrote TWD fanfic on wattpad LOL.

Favorite fanfic you've ever written?

How could you ask me this? What is wrong with you?

What fic would you want to rewrite one day?

I will be rewriting my Hunger Games one-shots series and reposting each one-shot as its own fic!

Fic Writer Interview

Wow, thank you @energievie & @vintagelacerosette & @thisdivorce for tagging me in this!

1. How many works do you have on AO3? 

160 fics!

2. What’s your total AO3 word count? 

1,727,092 words!

3. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Quiet Rapture : 28,800 

Blood Moon : 15,920

Crybaby : 14,535

Helloooo, Nurse! : 12,228

Let’s Be Alone Together : 11,526

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

I used to respond a lot more, but over the years, it’s harder to find time to sit and respond to them all. For example, one of my fics has over 7,000 comments. The average amount of comments I’ll get on a one-shot fic for a certain fandom can be 100-200 and it can take me literal hours to reply to them all in a thoughtful way. As a single parent with a lot of serious daily health battles (kidney failure, immunocompromised, regular migraines, PTSD, etc), it’s unfortunately really difficult to carve out hours of time to reply. I treasure my comments and they keep me writing, so I hope my continued writing is an adequate thanks. 

5. What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

LOL Meat Grinder and The Most Human Color. Both are horror based. They were some of my most fun to write, personally, but only the brave ever seems to read them once in a while hehe.

6. What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?

99% of my fics have happy endings. I love a happy ending. 

7. Do you write crossovers?

A few, but it’s not my specialty or anything. 

8. Have you ever received hate on a fic?

ALL THE TIME LOL. It’s just the territory when you become a well-known writer for ‘ship that people don’t approve of. It’s a normal thing for me to receive hate comments on a monthly basis since 2017. Anime fandoms suck in terms of how hateful they’re willing to get. 

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

I’d say I’m known for writing smut. Like, that is my jam. I have 88 Explicit fics, so whatever it is, I’ve probably explored it on some level, minus extremely hard kinks.

10. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Yeah. Semi-regularly. Very frustrating. 

11. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes, several!

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

Uhhh. Started to. The rest of the people got bitchy about how they wanted the fic to go and I dipped. 

13. What’s your all-time favorite ship?

Impossible to say. My first fandom ship was Kirk/Spock, which is how I became known for my fanfic. But my readers are primarily BakuDeku and that was my hyperfixation from 2017-2020. However, my comfort ship that I read to chill out when life is rough is good ol’ Arthur/Eames and Merthur and Hannigram, and recently I have 77 bookmarked Gallavich fav fics which is the most bookmarks for a specific ship that I have. I dunno, I really don’t think I have an all-time fav!

14. What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

I’m very good at finishing WIPs. I am currently haunted by Crybaby, which I am working on. So, one that I don’t think I’ll ever finish is Keep Calm and Conceal Vulcans from way back in my KirkSpock days. I still get comments of old readers asking to finish it.

15. What are your writing strengths?

Dialogue. Sex. Keeping pace without dragging ass.

16. What are your writing weaknesses?

Pausing to describe settings for more than two sentences. 

17. What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

Keep it brief, keep it intuitive so the reader can generally understand what’s happening anyway. 

18. What was the first fandom you wrote for?

Star Trek! A Valentine’s Day exchange in Feb 2010.

19. What’s a fandom/ship you haven’t written for yet but want to?

The Witcher. I have several WIPs that sit around for that. Knowing me, I’ll wait ‘til the fandom has full crashed and burned, then roll up with three back to back fics that five people will read. And that’s fine, it’s all about the joy of writing!

20. What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

Out of 160 fics?! Impossible. Uhhh. . .I’ll say Quiet Rapture because it has brought me an immense form of healing. But a lot of my one-shots brought me immense joy to write.

If you made it this far, thanks for reading! I'm tagging my lovelies @tierfal & @diemarysues so I can spy all their answers! The quiz is under the Read More!

[ladyzayinwonderland]

Hiya Zay! So I noticed you posted about a Hadestown crossover and I wanted to ask you what you love about the musical! Favorite song? Favorite quality? What about the story/songs/costumes/characters/choreography/atmosphere/etc evokes Feelings? What is/are the primary mood(s) it inspires in you? Favorite headcanon or tender moment? Favorite line/lyric? (FYI I know you're not on here regularly and I RESPECT that, so if you want to answer, feel utterly free to take your time)... ❤️ Poly

Okay this has been a long time coming (I just didn’t realize how long it would take) but I finally have an answer! Thank you for your patience, dear Poly, and thank you for the super ask! I’m always willing to gush about Hadestown and it was so fun to have the opportunity ^_^

It is, however, a very long answer... it kinda got away from me in the process, hehe.

Favorite song: I feel like it might be cliché to say Wait for Me, but… all the versions of the song are gorgeous in different ways. If I had to be more original, then I would have to say We Raise Our Cups. I tear up every time I listen to it.

Favorite Quality: In the words of Hermes, “it’s a love song.” Orpheus loves Eurydice enough to go to hell to get her. Eurydice loves Orpheus enough to follow him out, though the way is hard. Hades loves Persephone, though he doesn’t know how to show it and is afraid to lose her. Persephone loves Hades enough to keep coming back to him to “try again”. I know that some of those loves are flawed, but they’re human. The beacon of that love and what it represents is important.

Story: I adore the inevitability of Hadestown. We know from the very beginning how this is going to end and yet we still hope that maybe it might just be different this time. We can’t help but hope. I think it speaks to the quality of the musical that it can still pull you in every time. Very cathartic.

Songs: My favorite thing about the songs is having been able to witness their growth and maturity from album to album! Themes, lyrics, and melodies have so many subtle changes that only seem to ring more true with time. It’s also so cool to see how it needed 10+ years to ruminate into the musical we have now. (But this might also be subjective to me because I found out about Hadestown when there was only a concept album, then kept up with each new development until my husband and I were able to see it on Broadway just after its premier.) And I’m very excited to see how the national tour turns out!!

Costumes: I love the tattered/steampunk/industrial look of the OBC show. But I also love what I’ve seen of the off-broadway show, the whimsical costumes of Nabiyah’s Eurydice and early Persephone’s dresses and boldness of Damon’s red jacket (bring! it! back!). The costumes definitely change the vibes of the show though, which is just fascinating to me. Mostly in Eurydice’s character, so…….

Characters: Eurydice. Has. Character. She is three-dimensional, rounded out, and can stand on her own. (this was always something I wished had been different with the myth) It’s interesting to note how her character is portrayed slightly differently depending on the show though? I can’t speak so much to Nabiyah’s portrayal because I didn’t see it, but the music makes me think that she’s harsher and angrier than Eva’s softer and more hopeful version. Orpheus too experiences subtle shifts between Damon and Reeve, specifically bolder to more naïve, which… I don’t hate, but I miss Damon’s Oprheus. I also love that all the main players experience change/growth! They all have agency!

Choreography: I love the transition between carefree in the world above to stark and sharp down below. Tbh Livin’ It Up On Top is not my ~fav~ choreography-wise, however, I recognize it’s a chance for the cast to let loose and have a good time, and it’s important to show just how different things are between the two settings. But the moment we are down below? Stellar. Sharp, synchronized movements that immediately remind you of the cogs of a machine. And I do love how the movements become more human by the time we get to If It’s True and Wait for Me II.

Bonus—the lamp choreo in Wait for Me. I sobbed when I saw them swinging and being used to light an otherwise dark space, leading Orpheus deeper underground.

Atmosphere: slight steampunk vibes my beloved. The off-broadway and Canadian productions’ Tree is something I wish had stayed for the OBC production. In addition to being gorgeous, it adds an element of nature to juxtapose to Hades’ cold, harshly lit, industrial underground. The OBC loses that little bit of earth by taking place in a train station bar. That said, I do enjoy the bar setting in parallel to Persephone’s dismal speakeasy down below. The presence of the band on stage, motley but involved in the story beyond just the music.

Inspired moods: I like angst, for better or for worse. I’ve always been drawn to Orpheus and Eurydice because of how tragic it is. I think it’s very Romantic™. Therefore, any incarnation or representation of the story is automatically my jam. I like that, regardless of how many times I have listened to the album, I still hold on to the hope that it might turn out differently. Just once. That hope is something so precious, something that still deserves to be passed on even if it’s been dashed to pieces. It’s never in vain, you can always try again.

(And, this probably isn’t as relevant, but I think there’s something to be said from a Christian perspective on the show as well. Orpheus is just a man and prone to doubt, as the show illustrates. He fails. We all fail. But there is hope found in One who literally can’t fail in bringing the lost back to Him, and that is an encouraging thought.)

Headcanon: I hold to this one interpretation of the tale that Orpheus looking back was a sign of love (though I don’t discount it being an act of doubt or weakness). I like to think that he was just wanted to see her again, wanted to make sure she made it too, but he was just a fraction of a moment too soon. It almost makes her “death” more tragic.

Tender Moment: my favorite tender moments from the show are 1) when Orpheus runs to the stage through the audience to reach Eurydice again in the second act. Mostly because I didn’t expect it. I was focused on her when a white and red blur with a guitar ran down the aisle to peek his head above the edge of the stage with a joyful “come home with me?” My Heart. 2) when Orpheus finishes Epic III and Hermes says “and you know what they did? They danced.” There is a twenty second bit of acoustic guitar and violin while Hades and Persephone dance for the first time together in ages. It wasn’t a grand or sweeping moment—it was just an old man stumbling through a rusty dance with his wife, and it felt genuine.

Favorite Line/Lyric: starting off strong with the first words of the show. There’s no introduction to Hadestown, no warning it’s about to start. Just Hermes sauntering onstage, looking you straight in the eye, and saying “Alright?” Then the band starts playing and the show begins. Incredible. Unprecedented. But also I weep for all of the Epics. Such solid poetry. So soft.

So anyway, those are my thoughts! They may be a little repetitive, but hopefully I conveyed myself decently enough. Thank you again, lovely!! <3

i was 7yo when i first watched tos, im 27 now :D

how did you become interested in 3?

i was not actually, i watched it when it was airing and i did not like it, but then recently i did not know what to watch and i needed something disney-ish to watch at work and decided to give it a try. and then i saw regina mills in action and i loved her and i liked swan queen so i continued to see what happens in the end.

who is your favorite actor in 4?

Michelle Gomez, obviously. i mean, i started watching the show because of her :D and still watch because of her and also Miranda Otto and they both deserve better writing.

would a crossover between 3 and 4 work?

hehe i think yes, i mean, both are about magic and witches. 

pair two characters in 1. who would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple?

anyone? you can put any characters together and the couple will be okay :D like chekov and bones? works fine, scotty and bones? yep, kirk and uhura? would totally work, sulu and janice? yeah why not. even scotty and rand would look okay lmao

overall, which show has the better storyline, 3 or 5?

5. buffy, i already spend so much time pointing out what is wrong with ouat, i don’t even want to think about it anymore, even when i gif it and remember everything, dude, there really was a good show hidden inside that show but alas we have what we have and it is a trash lol

who is your least favorite character in 1?

oh my..... idk if i dont like a character in b99 they’re all so good. maybe terry? i love him to death but out of the main crew, i’d say he’s my least fav honestly aAHHH

"He Said, She Said” - a POWERFUL execution of the #MeToo movement and the episode that finally made me realize that amy wasn’t as bad as i thought

what is your favorite episode of 5?

its cliche but the finale. literally the most iconic closing scene of all time and i remember it word by word. please watch it if you ever get the chance its SO POIGNANT

season two bc its so fucky and everything you thought you knew in season one CRUMBLES

how long have you watched 1?

i started watching it in 2018 i think???

how did you become interested in 3?

so i found it by chance on netflix and happened to watch it bc it looked interesting - thats it lmao not an exciting story but i literally FELL IN LOVE with it ugh so good

who is your favorite actor in 4?

oh god idk either david harbour or winona ryder hehe

which do you prefer, 1, 2, or 5?

as much as cheers will always have a place in my heart, i’m telling you right now that the good place just fucks me up on a completely different level. so crazy

which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3?

by default, 1. b99 has SO MANY EPISODES nd i think peaky blinders literally has MAYBE 24? 

if you could be anyone from 4, who would you be?

wow this one is tough.... nancy wheeler probably bc shes getting that good dick from johnny boy and shes a powerful character who is aware of and simultaneously ignores her society-based limitations as a female

would a crossover between 3 and 4 work?

uhhhh ya no. 3 is literally set 50-60 years before 4 and i genuinely think that the shelbys would hate everyone from hawkins thats on god

pick two characters from 1 who would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple.

wow oof.... rosa and gina. the bisexual power couple that we’d love to see but will never actually get

overall, which show has a better storyline, 3 or 5?

oh peaky blinders for sure. cheers is fun, but its one of those shows where you’d be okay watching it with your brain shut off. you have to actually pay attention to peaky blinders bc the storyline is so well put-together and complex compared to cheers

which has the better theme music, 2 or 4?

stranger things. ugh the theme music is so dope, meanwhile the good place literally just sounds like elevator music
