🍄 and 🏜️ and maybe 🐚? (wth is that even... a conch?)
(i think it is a conch but honestly it could be a megaphone. why are the emojis so SMALL)
🍄 ⇢ share a head canon for one of your favourite ships or pairings
Dean would be unlikely to do it, but I think he has the patience to be a baker, and Sam does not. Sam would get offended by the way that yeast can react differently every time and be like IT SAID TO RISE FOR AN HOUR AND IT'S BEEN AN HOUR, WHY DIDN'T IT WORK. Sam is very patient and precise but he doesn't have the particular kind of obsessive energy that's required; in contrast Dean -- if he gets suckered into something -- treats it with wackjob fandomite energy. I heard someone else described recently as "she's either never heard of it, or she was at the convention," and that's how Dean is about like. All things, lol. So I can see him getting super into his sourdough starter and rolling with mistakes and learning how to form dece rolls and getting all invested in making the Perfect Loaf. And then watching Sam bite into a slice slathered with butter and making that Sam Eating Dean's Cooking face, and feeling all smug and delighted. He's a homemaker at heart. :)
🏜️ ⇢ what’s your favourite type of comment to receive on your work?
Literally anything substantive. Honestly, that's it. I know that the people who leave like emoji hearts or whatever mean well, but my actual heart sinks every time I open an AO3 email and that's all it is. And whoever invented that 'you have already left kudos here ;)' meme can stub their toe once a week for a year, honestly. I know that makes me sound ungrateful and I truly appreciate that anyone would even take the time to open up the comment box at ALL, given how rare the behavior is, but... We do this because we want connection, sending creative work one way and hoping there will be some kind of reaction coming back the other, and when it's been hours and weeks and sometimes years of sweaty effort on this side, being met with "❤️" in return is just. Miserable, lol. (I guess it's less miserable than nothing at all.) But any time -- ANY time -- a reader mentions something specific they liked, or asks a question, or proves that they thought about the piece for longer than a second, it is a jolt of loving adrenaline straight to the withered heart and it makes it all worth.
🐚 ⇢ do you like or dislike surprises?
I like them! I guess it depends, haha. e.g. "hey we're all going to dinner, do you want to come? it's in an hour!" is the kind of surprise that makes me want to die. I'm very John Mulaney about plans. But given this is a creation-fandom-etc set of asks I'm trying to think about fandom-related surprises... A surprise gift? Always good. A surprise mention? Always a shock! A surprise sequel to a complete work? ...Could go either way, lol.

Also because I love to clown on homophobes like...half of the men in this game are fucking crazy over Chai. Did these people just zone out when Zanzo was having the gayest lil mad scientist moment over this rockin' twink?

i'm genuinely so sad about my coworker's last day today... like that was my FRIEND and it's so hard to keep up with coworker friends when you don't work together anymore. plus she's really busy so we're going to go from seeing each other 3 days a week to MAYBE once a month if i get lucky & probably not even that. and like who am i supposed to talk to at work now???? HUH?? when i was closing up today i was wondering if getting paid more is even worth it bc the job still sucks and now my friend is gone!!!!
