🍑 🍌 🍈 ? ^^
🍑 If you could make a connection between your favorite character and another work you care about (whether a crossover/fusion or a wonderfully “pretentious” literary reference) what would it be? How would it work?
Idk what connection means so i just typed up this fuck ass answer idk.
I want to say Spirit Albarn and my OC Kacey so bad cuz they are both very sad, divorced dads who are weirdly obsessed with their daughters and they can somewhat bond over that but then Kacey finds out about Spirit's supposed cheating and he's over it within a second. Side eyes him constantly after that
🍌 In your opinion, what’s the funniest joke/reference/pun you’ve made in a fic?
I don't know about the funniest but I do think I am very funny when I want to be and I do like projecting that onto Stein cuz Stein is a very funny character, he's so unserious and I like putting that in my fics. Like how he lowkey confessed his love jsut to make a damn joke lmao i love him.
🍈 Who’s your blorbo and what are some of your favorite headcanons/ideas about them that repeatedly show up in your fics? Free pass to rant about blorbo opinions
SPIRIT ALBARN. He ran from a catholic cult home and ended up at the DWMA to be 'free' or whatever cuz he didn't know what else to do with his life but he couldn't keep living there especialyl after finding out he's bi (or trans in some au's). So that's one reason he's clinging onto Maka so hard, not only cuz it's his precious daughter but because he wants a family again. As much as he hates his parents, it's comforting to have a family and a home.
He carries catholic guilt around everyday, it etches itself into his bones and buries into his brain like a worm. He's such a mess of a man and I really adore it.

First Impressions, Ch. 2 is up!
You reminisce about the ball and the new acquaintances that have been made. After a trip to the village, you learn of even more new faces moving into your village. Not much time is left for musing over such news when a letter comes in the mail for you, inviting the two daughters of the Reed family to dine.

Gentle reminder that very little fandom labor is automated, because I think people forget that a lot.
That blog with a tagging system you love? A person curates those tags by hand.
That rec blog with a great organization scheme and pretty graphics? Someone designed and implemented that organization scheme and made those graphics.
That network that posts a cool variety of stuff? People track down all that variety and queue it by hand, and other people made all the individual pieces.
That post with umpteen links to helpful resources, and information about them? Someone gathered those links, researched the sources, wrote up the information about them.
That graphic about fandom statistics? Someone compiled those statistics, analyzed them, organized them, figured out a useful way to convey the information to others, and made the post.
That event that you think looks neat? Someone wrote the rules, created the blogs and Discords, designed the graphics, did their best to promo the event so it'd succeed.
None of this was done automatically. None of it just appears whole out of the internet ether.
I think everyone realizes that fic writing and fanart creation are work, and at least some folks have got it through their heads that gif creation and graphics and moodboards take effort, and meta is usually respected for the effort that goes into it, at least as far as I've seen, but I feel like a lot of people don't really get how much labor goes into curation, too.
If people are creating resources, curating content, organizing the creations of others, gathering information, and doing other fandom activities that aren't necessarily the direct action of creation, they're doing a lot of fandom labor, and it's often largely unrecognized.
Celebrate fan work!
To folks doing this kind of labor: I see you, and I thank you. You are the backbones of our fandoms and I love you.
