10 songs on repeat

I was tagged by @forever-fixating

first 10 songs on your "on repeat" playlist + tag 10 people let's go:

Main Title Theme - Westworld (Ramin Djawadi) - I have been listening to the Westworld soundtrack when I write as well as when I read lately.

2. About You Now (Sugababes) - Used that one to write 2 harringrove fics of late

4. Deutschland (Rammstein) - my Vecna song

7. Separate Ways (Journey) - such a harringrove song...

8. Paint It Black - Westworld (Ramin Djawadi) - that one I love love love

9. You Got it (Welshly Arms) - I wrote a harringrove fic based around that song

10. Feel It Still - Purple Hearts soundtrack (Sofia Carson) - I know the movie is problematic but I love it and Nick looks hella hot in it.

I’ve had a lot of writer’s block lately so I made yet another character playlist

First ship playlist though so that’s something? I’ve been wanting to make it for forever now but for some reason I always feel super cringe making these (not to mention posting them)

ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS

...then tag some folx you wanna know better!

.

thanks for my tag, @fawcett-hairspray-club! i'm definitely gonna be bombarding you with more questions about a few of your answers!

.

3 SHIPS: the toppest of trios, for me, is destiel, sterek and harringrove. in that order! (honorary mention to pynch and geraskier both of which almost tie with the latter).

FIRST SHIP: oooh i reckon it must be fox and dana from the x files *alexa play mulder & scully by catatonia* or actually maybe it's fox and sunflower seeds...

CURRENTLY CONSUMING: too much coffee, lots of water, and my sterek spotify playlist bc the biles × sourwolf brainrot is extremely strong rn. oh, and some new german words: aufregend! #duolingo

LAST MOVIE: the outfit (2022) by graham moore. it's sort of a mobster movie but not really and feels kind of like a play? it stars the excellent mark rylance, along with zoe deutsch and dylan o'brien. i enjoyed all of them and it very much.

LAST SONG: i know the shape by german error message.

CURRENTLY WATCHING: s4 of servant

CURRENTLY READING: just about to start how to be autistic by the wonderful poe and i'm also up to ch.6 of madi's brilliant sterek WIP fic light a spark.

CURRENTLY CRAVING: food, anything at all—at present i have nothing containing any real sustainance in the flat because i'm a tremendous failhuman xp

.

BTW it's @all-or-nothing-baby / @teencopandthesourwolf / @anoiseofgloriousdisdain in case you're wondering who tf i am! waaaay too many sideblobs lol.

there's also a youtube account under that username started in 2010 and it's all just playlists of film scores which iirc the duffer brothers mentioned that was a lot of what they personally listened to so i really think it's legit. but also if there was harringrove fanart saved it's gone now so idk what happened there

ooooh okay, that's interesting. i just have a hard time believing that matt would have all of this publically available on his account 🤷‍♀️ about the harringrove stuff -- yeah i have no idea what's going on there

3. kiss the boy - Keiynan Lonsdale

4. draw your swords - Angus & Julia Stone

5. trustful hands + lick my wounds - The Dø

[belovedharringrove]

The Night We Met is a perfect harringrove song bestie 😭

Your music taste is on point. What other songs make you think of harringrove?

the ave maria. y'know, because it's a funeral song- i'm kidding! don't cancel me!

but thank you! my music taste is actually all over the place lmao.

like you mentioned, the night we met is really harringrove to me. the bit where he goes 'i had all and then most of you, some and now none of you'? 'take me back to the night we met'? catch me crying in public at it.

i've also mentioned illicit affairs a few times before. just them having to sneak around so they can be together because they know that if they came out their lives would be ruined and they could possibly even be killed. sobbing.

peace is also a song that really reminds me of them, but this time it's from billy's pov. we all know that billy's story is not the best and if he starts dating steve, he'll probably always be scared that all his trauma would scare steve away.

family line. that is the one that's basically a punch to the face every time i listen to it, especially looking at it from billy's pov.

i'm sure there's a lot more but i would have to make a harringrove playlist since right now i'm kinda drawing blanks... it doesn't help that i don't have access to my spotify right now. i'll make a playlist soon and once i make a post about it, you'll be the first person i tag!

edit: AMEN. BY AMBER RUN. HAD @jas0nbrody MENTION AMBER RUN FOR A COVER THEY MADE AND I REMEMBERED THAT SONG AND HURT MYSELF. AMEN IS THE MOST HARRINGROVE SONG THERE IS RIGHT NOW.

[rigginsstreet]

1, 8, 16, 18, 22, 23

1. give short descriptions of all your current WIPs.

well we got... the smut. which... takes place in the construction trailer. thats all im willing to say about it lmao

then i got the happiest season au so thats festive. 

then i got chapter 2 of the harringrove childhood best friends fic which is focusing on the high school years which will be super fun once get past the wall i hit but its fine its chill i got it

then i attempted to start 2 other fics a few weeks ago when i was feeling supes depressed lol and those were penelope reaching out to fp after freds funeral (as i said... i was depressed lmao) and the other one is sad christas where fred and fp make sweet love under the twinkling christmas lights but then have a big fight after bc that still sounds fun to me. dont know when those are ever gonna get finished but like... theyre there. i only got like one paragraph in to both of them tho so

8. which of your own projects have shaped your writing the most? in what way?

i think my writings been consistently terrible so this is not the question for me lmao whichever one i wrote first has pretty much just... set the tone

16. to what extent do you research for your writing?

the most research i ever put into any of my fics was googling when video game consoles were popularized in the home for the harringrove fic i fucking hate writing pre 90s i dont know shit. but beyond that the most im googling is like what year a song or movie came out

18. how do what you look for in your own writing vs someone else’s coincide? how does your writing influence your reading?

i dont think my writing influences my reading. as for the first question, i will say with smut i can read a LOT of shit, a LOT of certain language and im fine with it. but when it comes to me actually writing it suddenly i get so embarrassed and im like “this sounds cringey. no one writes it this way. dont use those words” but itll be about shit that is so commonplace in literally every smut fic ive ever read like i still cant reference balls it makes me uncomfortable lmfao but beyond that, im pretty critical of other peoples writing. like... to a certain extent i can put up with mistakes, but theres definitely a limit to that and even then im like fixing shit in my head to make it flow better as im reading. so the bar for me is always to just write better than the worst fics ive read. which... i can safely say i at least do that.

22. how much of your own self/experiences do you believe pours into your projects? if this differs per project, which projects have the most and least of you?

i simply have no experiences to draw from i am a hermit. i ... do not live life. even when i was younger i just... did not do anything lmao the only bits of myself/my experiences i can put in are like... mental illness. and even then i have yet to fully tap into that energy i dont know if any of us are ready for that level of negativity. (which... was probably gonna happen in those previously mentioned depression fics so its for the best we did not go there). oh but if you want a fun answer any time ive written gladys or alice roasting fp thats fully been me and how i interact with people

23. what do you do to engage with your projects which isn’t actually writing? ex: playlists, pinterest boards, etc. how much do they play a role in the development of your work?

i do none of those things. i dont actively pursue anything outside of writing for the fics. if i happen to come by something that inspires an idea then sure but im not out seeking it. ive tried making moodboards before for fics but i get annoyed cuz i can never find the pics i want and i give up. the only reason why murder fic has one is bc i was saving up pictures long before i even decided to write it

Writing Review

Tagged by the lovely @dls-ao3

How long have you been writing? Gah, awhile, umm fanfic would be since the first Xfiles movie, writing in general, since I was a kid I guess?

More fics, or more OW (original writing)/novels? Fanfic. I did write a novel once, fucker took me 7 years and I lost it to a) a bad computer fail and b) the dipshit comp repair guy who wiped it despite my having another five computer guys to see. Moral of the story? BACK YO SHIT UP PEOPLE.

Which fandom did you start writing in? LotR, briefly, I was writing an Aragorn/Legolas fairytale AU when the HP frenzy took me down, I left that fic WIP and moved directly into Drarry and never looked back :P *eta: the afore mentioned XFiles Mulder/Scully fic was too awful to ever be posted so I don’t count it or the Angel/Cordelia fics I dipped my toe into lol 

Which fandom are you stuck in now? Inception (always), Thorki currently to the point of almost not being able to think past it ffs lol but I’ve been tempted by Harringrove and Stucky here and there. Beyond that I’ll always love Merthur, Drarry, Johnlock, Spirk, Stony and a few others I’d remember if I had my ‘misc fic’ folder near me :P

Do you have a favorite character to write? Not so much, I don’t tend to get a choice in whose voice I get, it just sort of shows up in my head and refuses to budge.

Do you need quiet or music to write? Both? I can’t handle absolute silence, makes me twitchy, but neither can I write with invasive noise around me, so I tend to have playlists for whatever I’m writing and LIVE in them until such time as it’s done, I only had a handful of songs for writing ‘Pet’ but if I hear any of them now I’m flung back to 2010 so hard I can almost smell what I was cooking for dinner as I was typing lol.

… What kind of music? Used to be mainly instrumental stuff, OST’s I highjacked for my own brain to apply to stuff as it saw best lol but it’s been mostly themed to each fic idea vs to particular genres so eclectic I guess?

Where do you write best? At home, in the lounge, alone. 

When? Bah, at night. Unfortunately, I’ve had insomnia for a few years and the sleep clinic are quite strict about trying to ACTUALLY SLEEP at night so now it’s whenever I can get my brain together enough during the day to allow for it *muttergrumbles*

Should you feel like it, I’d be interested to know your answers @that-weird-girls-blog, @singularabyss25, @ktspree13, @emorgan5061, @deinvatiwrites, and really anyone who sees this and fancies it ;)
