Fic cast photos - different fic

After the picture, a little spoilery talk.

It’s taken a few days of ideas rolling through my mind, changing, being too heavy and maybe finally coming to something I can go with. It’s still heavy cos there’s a subject that’s been on my mind for 30 years, I think due to some family history. My original fiction story using it, that I began in 1994, is still floating around, but has gone flat with age thanks to the burnout decade of almost no writing.

I’m not writing as much as I was a few weeks ago, though it’s still fairly consistent. Different things keep coming to mind, but this might just happen. For now, I have a cast photo and Griffin characters make up half of it.

Tyler Locke, Gabe, Jack Dunkleman, Sam Ecklund, Five Hargreeves, Rafe Khatchadorian and Leo, and Danny Gannon. Gabe and Five are a very fun pair to throw together.

I edited the post a few times to remove Leo and add Danny (even more Griffin characters, but it works), and to swap Five and Sam in the age order (mentioning in case anyone noticed and doubted their memory). And changed the picture of Rafe so for those who already liked this, here’s that picture too.

Minor spoilers -

In this one, the world is a bit grim, but only in a few ways. I like a good “kids banding together” story.

Tyler was so pleased I chucked him into this world (/sarcasm if not obvious). Immediately he brought such a good energy.

For the fic writing asks: 19, 27, 33, 47, & 68

HIII ANNA GRACE KISSESSS <333

19. Do you enjoy creating OCs or do you prefer to stick solely to canon characters?

stick solely to canon characters!!! i have a couple dna characters who are my darling light and life but i also don't really count them as OCs bc they're rooted in the original play to me forever and i don't usually throw them into unrelated fic (except leah my sam ecklund big sister. that's leah dna to me. whoops)

27. What area of writing do you feel strongest in?

uhhhh depends on the fic !!! some fics i feel really solid in the dialogue for, some i feel iffy on dialogue and comfortable in description, sometimes i like to really sit into the world building/setting/etc-- it depends on the fic and the setting and my headspace more than anything !!! (though i am forever curious as to what OTHER people think my strength/s in my writing is 👀)

33. Is there a specific word count that you hold yourself to/enjoy writing the most?

anything under like. 3k feels too short for me. i have a lot of respect for people who can write really short things and have them be like. cohesive and solid and clear but i feel like my writing has to surpass 2 or 3k words before it feels like. solid enough to post!! after that, it depends on what the story demands; i said in a previous ask that i don't outline generally and that carries over to wrod counts, too, i don't really know how long a fic is going to be until i feel myself getting into an organic endgame of the narrative-- when i start something, i have no idea whether its gonna be like 5k or 25k or longer lmao (famously i thought noble pining was gonna be a short regular fic when i started it. 3 years and 100k words ago. so. what do i know?)

47. Is there a trope that you’ve written before but are now sick of?

not really?? i tend not to read a lot of soulmate aus anymore bc i find them. a little overdone and not super interesting to me personally anymore?? but like ive only written one soulmate au a long time ago and i started writing that as a way to explore a soulmate au world build that did interest me!

68. Are there any fics that influenced you to write the way you do?

uhhhhh so many fics and at the same time? none? idk i read fic. so much. like every night to go to bed bc im #normal, and while there have absolutely been fics that have been wonderful and lifechanging and mind bending i dont know if there are any that have directly impacted my writing? sometimes reading a fic will give me a tangential idea for a scene or a fic or a beat that i might then go on to write, but my style tends to me more impacted by the people i am lucky enough to write alongside and hearing about their thoughts and processes and getting their insights and feedback !!! specifically in the last while jamie @jlinns and luka @creacherkeeper have been super inspirational and really helped me to continue shaping my perspective on my writing <3

send me fic asks from this list!!!!
