re: the writing ask, 7 and 14!

hi! thank you for the ask ❤️

7 - what character do you enjoy writing most and why?

already answered

14 - what is your favorite relationship featured in your fic aside from the main couple?

cant figure out how i should interpret this question lol. like my favorite couple or just any pair of characters?

if nonromantic st pair, i’ve enjoyed playing with nancy and mike a lot lately. though outside of my wips, i havent yet gone into depth with them the way that i want (its mostly just been like; little brother disgust; eldest daughter rage; lets mix these two ingredients; we get fun sibling rivalry) but yeah i think deep down there is this flicker of softness between the two of them, a weird sense of understanding. i dunno.

if romantic st pair…honestly joyce and lonnie? but again im not sure how to interpret the question, maybe im mistaken on what its asking. because yes i think they are my second favorite relationship to write but its certainly not my (or anyone’s) ship to ship. obviously. you know? i like to try and get into the joyce and lonnie stuff because i enjoy parsing out Past Joyce. not to say that that girl is gone completely but i dont know, i find it easy to write about her victimhood and the way she would have naturally been more susceptible when younger. more surprised. and powerless. she definitely fell on denial to cope with the abuse and thats sad but i guess i like writing about it anyways. however i can only think of a couple things i’ve published that really center on this (this flashback chapter of a fic i kinda quit and this oneshot with her feelings abt the pregnancy).

but yeah i might have not answered that quite right? to clarify my second favorite ship in the show in general is lucas and max but i’ve always ran into trouble trying to write about the kids or show their point of view. so when i say joyce and lonnie is my favorite, i mean out of what i have written, and i only mean that its interesting to explore joyce in that way. like to reiterate, i dont find their relationship’s toxicity “exciting” or anything. i will shut up now i think you know what i mean!

thanks so much again! so good to see you in my inbox :)

send me a fic ask

[heavencasteel420]

Maddie - Yay, great! 👏🏼

Here are the questions! Looking forward to reading your responses… 😊

I mostly have ideas for multi-chapter fics, especially when it comes to Jancy, but I think I like writing one-shots more.

I usually do a very rough outline before starting a chapter (a list of scenes/plot points/goals) but revise it a lot as I go (like deciding to combine two scenes or insert a new one).

Usually I have a couple of vague ideas about plot points and vibes first. For example, with Drive All Night, it occured to me that the S1 Jancy scene where they practice shooting in the woods had Bonnie and Clyde vibes, and then I saw the 1932 movie Wild Boys of the Road and liked how it escalated from "teen comedy set during Depression" to "bleak chaotic Depression Era social drama with really satisfying violence." I let those ideas percolate a little and maybe ramble about them on Tumblr or to my IRL friend who's never watched Stranger Things. Then I write a first chapter to see if it has legs. If I'm having fun and feel intrigued about what's going to happen next, I continue. With one-shots, I usually have a specific idea I want to convey, so I think more about the overall arc I want and how each scene pushes towards that.

I get a lot of ideas from watching other media and deciding that I want to put characters in that kind of situation. I have a Jancy-Byler idea (pretty low on things that I'd actually write) where Jonathan, Will, and El are siblings who have powers (mind-reading, being a medium, and telekinesis, respectively) during the 1930s and work for carnivals before deciding to run a con on the town of Hawkins (particularly the Wheeler and Harrington families, about to unite through the marriage of Nancy and Steve). This came about because I love the movie The Brothers Bloom and had recently watched the remake of Nightmare Alley. Sometimes fandom discourse provides inspiration. For Tonight, Tonight, for example, I got annoyed with people not understanding why Jonathan initially thinks Joyce is losing her mind re: the lights and so decided to write an AU where his worst fears come to pass; exploring the consequences for Nancy kind of followed from that.

I've participated in a lot of writing workshops and really appreciate constructive criticism in the right context, but on a fanfic I've already posted, from someone whose tastes/goals may be very different from my own, is not that context. People are entitled to their opinions, but at that point I'm probably not going to change anything.

I don't have my work beta'd.

I have two dual POV WIPs going right now (Tonight, Tonight and my not-yet-posted Robin-and-Jonathan friendship fic) and two fics (Drive All Night and Ugly as Sin) with a single POV. It depends partly on who's the main character (Ugly as Sin is way more about Chrissy than Eddie or anyone else), who's going through the more dramatic changes (Nancy in Drive All Night), and how much information I want to convey.

I like the middle of a story, because that's when everything gets complicated. Endings are the hardest to write.

Yes, I comment, but not as much as I would like to!

“Look, I get it,” she said, blinking rapidly. “Robin’s the pretty one. But she’s also really immature and flaky, and she’s never going to go out with you.” [Spoken to Jonathan by one of Robin's friends; he knows she's a lesbian and does not in fact want to go out with her, but he's like "hey" on her behalf.]

Off the top of my head: already wise, already worn by throttlegainwell; How Do We Get to There from Here? by nyctanthes; and where the hours bend by fakelight.

I don't need a ton of feedback, but just one person saying that they like or want to see more of something makes all the difference.

Don't get too attached to your vision of how a scene/chapter should go if it's not working in the moment. Also, if I want to do something weird or risky or gross, it's probably actually a good idea.

Sometimes emotional scenes come really easy, but other times I have to sit down and outline everything the characters might be feeling so I can decide how much to reveal/describe. There's always a decision to be made how direct to be about a character's feelings; there's a time to convey it really subtly through how the character perceives their environment and their body language and all, but there's also a time to go "he felt like shit." And I do feel what the characters feel, quite often! I cried a lot writing Tonight, Tonight, let me tell you. I also draw from personal experience a lot, although it's not always super-direct.

There's so much pressure in writing smut scenes! I generally don't try to make them "sexy" so much as I try to convey what the characters are feeling (i.e., that they like looking at each other and enjoy what they're doing). How graphic I get usually depends on the character's attitude and the pacing of the story. I value sexual frankness in writing in general, though.

Three active WIPs (two posted) and twenty other ideas, roughly. My two big ideas are (a) a slice-of-life No Upside Down AU centered on Nancy, Jonathan, Mike, and Will and (b) a film noir homage with some Gone Girl stuff going on.

I leave it for a little while. Then I go back and try to figure out where I stopped getting interested, or I skip to the "good part."

I usually come up with a title towards the beginning of the writing process and then change it a million times. Mostly I get titles from song lyrics.

Looking at "additional tags" only, "Child Abuse" and "Minor Steve Harrington/Nancy Wheeler" are in the lead. Jonathan and Chrissy are both going through it usually, and I do like writing Steve and Nancy as a temporary romance.

For some reason, "Jonathan buys a used car from Lonnie" is a scenario that comes up a lot? I like writing about food, clothes, and money. I like putting in random stuff that isn't really part of the current pop culture vision of the 1980s, like holdovers from the 1970s or how much awful TV everyone was watching.

Probably! I used to write stories with my best friend when we were in middle school (mostly original stuff) and that was always really fun.

I probably wouldn’t write a crossover with a work that’s already shown up a lot in the fandom (like It, The Black Phone, or Scream).

If you cut a passage from a story, save it in a separate document because it could be useful later.

So many people insist that “cum,” not “come,” should be used as a verb for orgasming, but that’s not true unless you’re going for the sleaziest vibe possible (no judgment).

I've been happy with the response on all my fics, but Tonight, Tonight, the Highway's Bright has a special place in my heart because it's so weird and sad.

Drive All Night, due to all the murders and crimes.

My favorite part is when you get a really good but unexpected idea, either out of the blue or after mulling things over for a while. My least favorite part is getting stuck on a scene because you can't figure out how to say that a character got up from a chair or something really silly like that.

250-500 hundred words, probably.

I'm a slow writer but I edit pretty fast. I check for typos and I take out unnecessarily wordy bits.

I share bits of rough drafts but not the whole thing.

[rosehaunt]

what are your favorite words or name ideas like “rosehaunt” looking for inspiration 💕

Well I like the names my sister and I came up with for some of our necklaces on our shop: bladenoir & veilamour.

Claude Monet’s works were painfully criticized in the first impressionist exhibition as Tucker notes in his article The First Impressionist Exhibition and Monet’s Impression, Sunrise: a Tale of Timing, Commerce and Patriotism, but at least Monet challenged the academy and gave a piece of himself to the world with his works. Now his art is largely appreciated, there is even a museum in Paris dedicated entirely to his art – The Marmottan. His daring endeavors inspired me to create a painting. Even though it might seem unfinished or even childish, this is my most authentic try to capture nature as it is.

Claude Monet, The Garden of the Infante, 1867. Oil on canvas, 91,8 x 61,9 cm. Ohio, Oberlin College.

While I was drawing it, I was looking out of my window which is exactly what Monet did with his ‘Garden of the infante’ or ‘The Louvre Quay’. Even though his paintings are very detailed and almost look like a photograph, mine is rather, well, cannot even be compared to his!

Camille Pissarro, Apple Picking at Eragny-sur-Epte, 1888. Oil on canvas, 61 x 74 cm. Dallas, Museum of Art.

I would rather compare it to Pissarro’s ‘Apple picking at Eragny-sur-Epte’ because of the almost unreal looking tree. I notice that the people are drawn with a lot more attention to detail than the tree, which is a bit alien looking. Even though it looks like mine is lacking any detail, I tried to capture the character of almost every single leaf cluster, and even of the tree trunks and branches. I started with the trunks; they were the toughest to draw. A tree without leaves looks like a nervous system. There are countless divisions, I couldn’t draw all of them. Some tree trunks were darker than others, more narrow or wide, some had patches of lighter bark, some were bigger, some smaller, some closer, some farther away. Each of them was an individual. A live model. William Bartram writes in his excerpts about a hunting scene between a spider and a bumble bee. He describes in detail the appearance of the spider: ‘his body was about the size of a pigeon’s egg, of a buff color, which with his legs were covered with short silky hair, on the top of the abdomen was a round red spot or ocelle encircled with black’. Isn’t it peculiar how he pays such attention to such a small creature? And most importantly, why does he pay so much attention to observation? In the beginning of his excerpts he uses all sorts of scientific names for the most usual flowers and plants. ‘Cactus grandiflora, Gloriosa superba, Theobroma, Adansonia digitata, Nyctanthes’… Why? I think because they are special, although they might be the most usual. Detail makes everything special and unique. And while drawing I established a connection with the trees, I got to know them, I know their character. One is a bit pompous and proud (far right), one is wise and old (far left), one is rather young and careless (middle). Now, their leaves had character too. The far-left tree had to have more mellow-shaped leaves because it is wisest. Even its colors are softest. The far-right tree has its leaves like spikes like it is going to prick someone. The middle one has the most different shapes and colors of leaves – a sign of youth’s colorfulness. It certainly felt difficult to draw. I constantly asked myself questions, doubted myself and didn’t like my work throughout the process: ‘But how exactly do I draw this shape?’, ‘No, it shouldn’t look like that’, ‘I should use a bigger brush’. At a certain point I thought ‘There is no way I will be able to finish that’, because I had no idea what I was doing. But then I just let my hand paint. It felt like I had gone back to my children’s years, my hands, and clothes all dirty with paint, brushes were falling everywhere, a certain chaos had settled in. But I felt like a true artist, free and completely engulfed in my work. Isn’t that exactly what artistry is? Freedom and chaos? Well, if so, I know I did well. -Neda

Nyctanthes arbor-tristis, or Parijat. Wikipedia calls it night flowering jasmine, but that's a title bestowed upon Raat Rani, not Parijat. It is a small white flower with a gorgeous saffron center and stem, used in dyes.

This was suppised to look delicate but it's really got an eldritch feel. I think I need to sharpen my pencil.

Coral Munga Gemstone

What is Coral Munga?

I'm not exactly sure who or what you mean by "Coral Munga." You might be referring to the "Munga Coral" or "Coral Jasmine" plant species (Latin name: Nyctanthes arbor-tristis). This shrub is indigenous to Southeast Asia, and it bears white or yellowish blooms with a powerful, sweet scent.

The Coral Jasmine's blossoms are used for religious or therapeutic purposes in some civilizations. For instance, the blossoms are occasionally utilised in Hindu religious events, and different sections of the plant are employed in Ayurvedic medicine to treat a wide range of illnesses.

But if you have more specific details or context, please let me know and I'll try to give you a more precise response.

What are the Benefits of Coral Munga?

As I have indicated, for millennia, numerous cultures have employed the herb Coral Munga, also known as Coral Jasmine, in traditional medicine. The following are a few possible advantages of Coral Munga:

Anti-inflammatory Compounds: Coral Munga's leaves and blooms contain substances that have anti-inflammatory qualities that may help lessen pain and inflammation.

Coral Munga has anti-oxidant characteristics that may help lower the risk of chronic diseases like cancer, heart disease, and Alzheimer's disease by assisting the body in neutralising damaging free radicals.

Compounds found in the plant may have antibacterial effects and may aid in the treatment of various bacterial and fungal illnesses.

Health of the respiratory system: Coral Munga has been used in traditional medicine to treat respiratory conditions like coughing,

What is the energy of Coral Munga?

Plants are frequently thought to have different energies that might influence a person's physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being in traditional medicine and holistic healing techniques. Coral Jasmine, also called as Coral Munga, is thought to contain a cooling energy that can assist to balance and calm the body and mind.

Coral Munga is characterised as having a "pitta-pacifying" energy in accordance with conventional Ayurvedic medicine, which implies it can assist the body balance the "pitta" dosha or energy type. Pitta dosha is linked to heat, intensity, and metabolism; when it is out of balance, it can cause problems such as inflammatory bowel disease, indigestion, and skin irritation. It is thought that the Coral Munga's cooling energy can balance pitta dosha and lessen these symptoms.

Coral provides cooling power in addition to

Does Coral Munga attract money?

Coral Munga, also known as Coral Jasmine, does not, according to any conventional wisdom or empirical data that I am aware of. Coral Munga is not known to be related with financial prosperity, despite the fact that plants and herbs are frequently linked to specific energies and qualities like healing, protection, or love.

Having said that, it's crucial to keep in mind that cultures and traditions can have very different beliefs and practises about plants and their energies. It may be unique to a certain culture or custom if you have heard of a specific idea that Coral Munga attracts money or fortune.
