Series Masterlist

-----

You stir awake as you hear footsteps coming from the hallway. You find this odd because your husband works overnight and never once comes home without leaving a text message, so you wouldn’t think anything of it. You recently moved into a new home with Bucky, your newlywed husband. You’d been dating since high school years ago. 

A simple date of catching things up between friends over lunch one afternoon had led Bucky and yourself nearly falling for each other then and there. He’d ask you for a few more dates, and you agreed every time.  You found yourself enjoying his company more and more. You knew you were falling quickly and never questioned your feelings. You knew he was the one for you, and soon enough, the pair of you had become engaged, and within months, you had your honeymoon. You’d recently moved back to New York into a new house that Tony had so graciously helped build in the middle of a remote location so neither pair of you would be bothered too often.

You frowned as you noticed the hallway light was left on, even though you clearly remembered turning it off on your way to bed that night. As you sat up, the footsteps grew louder and heavier. You glanced at your phone before picking it up and unlocking it, frowning in defeat when you had no missed texts from Bucky.

Just as quickly as the footsteps sounded in the hallway, they disappeared quicker. You threw the covers away from your body and ran to the door, pulling it open, expecting to see Bucky standing in front of it with a tired grin.

But the hallway was empty. You frowned and walked down the hallway to flick the light off again before returning to bed. You texted your husband, stating that you’d heard someone walking through the house and were scared. He sent back encouraging words, saying nobody could have gotten inside without the alarm, alerting himself and Tony of a break-in. Tony Stark and the gang had taken extra caution in installing every safety measure and device they had on hand into this house so SHIELD nor HYDRA could get their grubby hands into your privacy. 

So what could have been walking through this house? Trees and a small lake in the far distance surrounded it. So what had happened?

You tried not to worry too much as sleep overcame your body once more. You fell into a deep sleep until you were roused awake in the early morning once more, as Bucky had texted you saying that he was coming up to the driveway.

You grinned widely as you threw the covers away from your body, hurriedly got dressed, and went to the bathroom across the hall to brush your teeth. You completely missed the dark figure standing in the shower as you dunked your head down to spit out the toothpaste from your mouth. However, the figure disappeared as quickly as it had come.

Rushing out of the room and nearly sliding on the wooden floors to the balcony, you grinned wide as Bucky walked through the door, a duffel bag slung over one shoulder, a bouquet of roses being held by the other. He looked completely as you waltzed down the stairway and giddily slung your arms over his shoulders before kissing the tip of his nose.

However, he wasn’t paying attention to you, looking up at the stairwell with a strange expression across his face. He quickly moved out of your touch before stepping onto the first stair, tilting his head to see over the balcony before turning to look at you.

Your giddiness at his homecoming was short-lived as he asked you a straightforward question.

“Who do you have upstairs with you?”

“Excuse me?” you blinked, worry coming over you as he turned his attention back upstairs. 

“Is there someone here with you? I wasn’t aware you had company over.” He asked, his face stunning again to the balcony above him.

“I thought I was seeing things last night,” you admitted, swallowing fear in your chest. “There was someone walking around last night; I thought you’d came home early and didn’t tell me.”

He stared at you for a long pause before sighing out and leaning down to pick up his luggage. “I’ll have Tony set up more security around here. For now, these are for you,.” he said as he handed you the bouquet with a smile, though you could see he was distracted.

Taking the flowers and inhaling the scent, you led him to the kitchen before setting the flowers into a makeshift vase fro ma tall glass of water and started to prepare breakfast for the pair of you as he started debriefing you on his findings of the latest mission.

As you set the bouquet of roses into the makeshift vase, you couldn’t shake the lingering unease from the previous night. You glanced over at Bucky, who was leaning against the counter, recounting details from his latest mission. His demeanor was relaxed, but you could tell something was off; his eyes kept darting towards the staircase.

You forced a smile and tried to focus on the breakfast preparations. As you worked, you could hear the occasional creak of the wooden floors above. The unease you felt last night seemed to be seeping into the present moment. Bucky’s presence was comforting, but the mystery of the intruder—or whatever it was—still gnawed at your mind.

As you finished making breakfast, you placed the plates on the dining table and turned to Bucky. “So, did you find anything interesting on your mission?”

He glanced up from his phone, where he had been checking messages. “Just the usual. Some intel on HYDRA movements and a few leads that could be useful. But I’m more concerned about what you saw.”

You nodded, setting a steaming plate of pancakes in front of him. “I’m worried too. I mean, if there’s something—or someone—else in this house, it’s not just a figment of my imagination, at least I'm praying that it isn’t. It wouldn’t be like Tony to hurt us like this..”

Bucky’s expression grew serious. “We’ll get it sorted. I’ll have Tony run a full sweep of the place. Maybe there’s something we missed with the security system.”

You both sat down and began eating, the pleasant aroma of breakfast momentarily pushing aside your worries. As you chatted about mundane things—the kind of topics that made life feel normal—you noticed Bucky’s gaze occasionally shifting towards the stairs.

“Bucky,” you said softly, reaching out to touch his hand. “Are you okay? You seem a bit distracted.”

He looked at you, his expression softening. “I’m fine, just a bit on edge. I know how much you mean to me, and I hate not being here to keep you safe. I want to make sure this house is secure, so nothing like this happens again.”

You squeezed his hand reassuringly. “I know you do, and I appreciate it. I’m just glad you’re home. We can deal with this together.”

Bucky nodded, a small smile returning to his face. “Together,” he agreed. “And for now, let’s enjoy breakfast. I missed you and I missed this.”

As you finished your meal, Bucky helped clear the table, his earlier distraction seemingly eased by your presence. You could tell he was still concerned, but he tried to put on a brave face for you.

After breakfast, Bucky made a call to Tony Stark, updating him on the situation. Tony assured him that he’d send someone over to check the security system and ensure there were no breaches. Bucky hung up the phone, looking more at ease now that the issue was being addressed.

“We’ll figure this out,” Bucky said, pulling you into a tight hug. “In the meantime, let’s focus on the good things. We’re together, and that’s what matters most.”

You hugged him back, feeling the warmth of his embrace. “Exactly. We’ll handle this, and we’ll be okay.”

The day went on with a mixture of normalcy and vigilance. Bucky’s presence was a comfort, and though the mystery of the footsteps remained unresolved, you felt a renewed sense of security knowing that you were facing it with him by your side.

As the sun set over the remote New York landscape, you sat on the porch with Bucky, enjoying the tranquility of your surroundings. The house was still and peaceful, and for now, that was enough. With each passing moment, the sense of unease faded, replaced by the comfort of shared presence and the promise of safety.

Fresh with the loss of his mother and his sister, Louis’ world darkens once more as he flies out to California, preparing for the worst. There, Louis is faced with the ghost of his past, realizing the hand he played in the band’s division.

He was going to tell the boys he was proposing this weekend. ‘Harry’ would turn him down, albeit gently, and Louis would play the heartbroken boyfriend. He’d gotten this far. All he had to do was lock himself in his bedroom and cry a little. He’d been in a few plays growing up. Piece of cake.

Except. It didn’t go that way. Of course, it didn’t. Because the universe, the beautiful chaotic bitch that she was, just had to have an actual Harry Styles and he just had to be Niall’s best friend.

Welcome to the Library of Taennie

Hello,

This is an archive for all Taennie (relationship), Taehyung (individual) and Jennie (individual) content I come across and want to archive.

This will include content from: tiktok, twitter, instagram, youtube, wattpad such as edits, tweets, posts/stories, videos and fics. As said in the name it is a library. Meaning the focus is not on creating new content, but instead to document and store already existing Taennie content. I am a lover of the tagging system on tumblr (the reason why I am using this hellsite (affectionate)) so I will use it to my hearts content to properly tag all content.

I will always (or at least try my best to) give credit and provide the link of the original source. And I encourage all to please give love and support to the original content creators.

This is not a constant update account, but one where I want to keep record of Taennie content I love. I will update this account whenever I wish as my activeness will fluctuate.

If you would like to submit any Taennie content you come across or talk about them, kindly send me an ask or a message!

To add, hate will not be tolerated or entertained. The block button is right there, kindly use it. (I won't discuss ship wars and won't invite that stuff into this space. This is a Taehyung and Jennie centred blog).

A little about me: I'm an armyblink. A proud OT7 and OT4 fan. I became an army in The most beautiful moment in life pt. 1 era. And was a blink since debut. Of course the past years as I've grown I haven't been as involved in either of their content and have become more music focused. But those are my boys and my girls and I will love and support all of them always. And that's all you really need to know about me.

I am so happy for Jennie and Taehyung and I am rooting for them hard! They deserve all the happiness in the world! Oh to love and be loved 🥺!

Please enjoy the contents of this blog. And let us support Taehyung and Jennie, both individually and together!

note: It's kind of hard to track down the gif above as I found it on twitter and there's no watermark. I believe it was made by: THV_JENNIE_MY_LOVE on tenor.com. (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong)

🪑 — MY BELOVED OLIVE IS BACK I HAVE MISSED YOU SOSOSOSO MUCH !!! forever in my thoughts lmk how you’ve been !!

daniza bestie, hello!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have missed you so much too and also oddly missed tumblr (while i've been away i've become a bit more active on instagram, and it's just,,,, very draining sometimes. tumblr really is such a great website, i love this funky little hellsite 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺).

i've been well! taking some time away from tumblr was nice, and while i have missed writing (like,,,, so much), it was a nice interrim. i definitely feel like i avoided some intense burnout, and i'm slowly getting to a place where i'm ready to jump back into tumblr (though i am a bit hesitant to get back into writing fic at the moment,,,, we'll see how that goes.). i did go to my first concert a month ago!!!!!!!! it was stray kids and i had the time of my life. i'll be riding that high for months yet, make no mistake. i'm also going to another concert next month - i'm seeing bastille, duran duran, and chic! all in one show!! it's lowkey a wild lineup, but i'm super pumped - i think it will be a lot of fun <3. other than that, i've kinda just been vibing. working, reading, making plans to watch tv shows and never doing it (rip hsmtmts,,,, i will get back to you one day,,,,, perhaps). how have you been??? anything particularly fun happen??

[mushroom-through-the-stargate]

you know what I love about tumblr? I also have an art instagram and I'm so paranoid about it. "oh can't post that fanart because then the Pretty People will know I'm a Nerd"

but over here I'm just like "HELLO FELLOW GOBLINS AND GREMLINS THAT FREQUENT THIS HELLSITE. WATCH ME CALL HAWKMOTH A BITCH AND APPRECIATE SOMEONE SPELLING OUT THE POKEMON FRANCHISE SO I KNOW WHERE TO START"

seriously I'm about to say screw it and post my mha au from a couple months ago that's been sitting in my phone notes that is basically what I personally wanted mha to be like (a lot more fluff and slice-of-life and also the lov are a found family shelter for runaways that COULD become villains but give them the love and support they needed to not go that route)

[monikahmakes]

I haven't been incredibly active on Tumblr since I rejoined it, but it's honestly blowing my mind how much more engagement (from people I don't already know) I'm getting already on art I post here versus on other social media. I even have a few new followers somehow- hi!

I've been thinking a lot about my social media use recently, and what I need to change to get more of the experiences I want. I was a very active Tumblr user from 2009-2019, but trailed off when friends drifted elsewhere and I was preoccupied with a new baby. In the intervening years, I've never really gotten the hang of Twitter, and Facebook has become more and more aggravating to me. I enjoy Instagram as a viewer, but especially as video has become more dominant, I've struggled to fit its vibe as a creator. (If you'd like to follow me there, though, you're welcome to!)

When the elongated muskrat bought Twitter and users started fleeing, I made a Mastodon account, and I never really got the hang of that either. I redoubled efforts to build my own website, which is a work in progress, and also doesn't quite fulfill the same purpose. But I also came back to Tumblr- and I'm glad I did, because there's a reason why I was here for a decade. Whether it's because my brain got formed by this particular blue hellsite (/affectionate) or because it's just a better match for the kind of things I do, this is just a more comfortable place for me.

Anyway, I'm glad I'm here, and I'm glad you're here, and I'm glad I get to share the things I make with you, and I'm glad when people like them.

instagram vs blue hellsite (affectionately)

It's amazing how scrolling through Instagram's suggested posts leave me feeling bleh and meh, because while it's fun to see hamster videos or woodworking or cooking, every time I interact with any of them I am AGRESSIVELY OVERWHELMED by hamsters, woodworkers or cooking... to the extent that I go "ugh, what is this bullshit, don't you dare show me another effing cake". Protip: if your social media makes me tired of cute hamsters, you är doing it wrong.

Insta's people also broke their own tag system ages ago, so that's useless, AND it hides the actual accounts I follow to promote what The Big Algorithm wants me to see instead.

Whereas on da Tumblr, I can scoll through my friends and either go "tired now" or find the place I last stopped and have the satisfaction of being caught up – I am very into the satisfaction of being caught up, btw, incapable of leaving mails unread and whatnot – and then I can either look through my followed tags.

Or. Choose to trust the Tumblr algorithm for more neato stuff Right now, I am doing a lot of the last. Looking at people's thoughts about Star wars and Bad Batch spoilers and Les Mis posts and vanilla essence discussion... And it's interesting! Because it builds off what people I have chosen to follow posts, it becomes a nice blend of "more of the same" with random "here, have a woodworking hamster post bc some mutuals of yours have liked something similar" and I also feel confident to reblog a cute animal post or five, without everything else drowning in them.

There are some tags ruined by many many pornbots, but honestly? I'll take this over Instagram for all bits but looking at irl friends vacation photos

[mybraindumps]

Tumblr was a love affair. I admired the screenshots from afar (read: Pinterest and Instagram) from years. Infact I used to think it was an ancient site, like myspace or Olympia, no longer standing. (That's how everyone sounds here btw. I love it.) I especially love the Tumblr tags. The best kind of goldmine. I was so disappointed to learn that's not how tags are used everywhere. Anyway, I created my account, once, twice, thrice, over the past eight years, but never stuck around long enough to figure it out completely. I am not sure why, but I suppose the blatant vulnerabilty intimidated me. That is, until last year, when I started my first job. I realised I needed an outlet, and my diary wasn't enough. I tried twitter, and a second account on Insta, but they were just... mehh Then I am remember exploring other platforms for a client when I found Tumblr again. And ended up creating this account. The first thing I did was follow all the accounts from the screenshots I had saved. I was so happy, to read their posts in real time and not wait for someone to screenshot it. It took me forever to think of a username that wasn't taken. And to start posting instead of saving like 50 odd drafts. And there was a moment when I realised how naturally shitposting comes to me. And I wondered why I had not been doing it all this while. And now I wonder how I ever lived without dumping all my thoughts. I re-read all my posts today. And even though some of them are cringe af, I wouldn't have it any other way. It doesn't matter if one person reads it, ten people read it or nobody reads it. I love my blatant vulnerabilty. And I love not keeping everything inside. I am not sure what will become of this. I can't rant for all my life I suppose (or can I?) But when have I ever cared about 'to what end?' I don't know why I am writing this? Why 'this' on New Year's Day? I just feel like it I suppose. Or perhaps because I start my new job, for real, tomorrow. Or maybe I want to mark the year I was finally here. Because it has been the best kind of ride. This feels so silly, writing a love letter to a platform. But its so real. To more shitposting this year on this hellsite. Happy New Year 🌻 1st January 2023

ok look this hellsite won’t let me find my post from a few months ago about this guy i went to high school with who was a diehard bo burnham stan yet ironically was the living breathing incarnation of art is dead but it’s been two years since i graduated and i still can’t fully process just how STRANGE this guy was

he was one of the most popular kids at my school and my friend (who had a HUGE crush on him) and i called him trix rabbit cuz he looked like the trix rabbit (yet still managed to be hot?) (yes, i’ll admit, even tho he was very…. interesting, he was still physically attractive)

in the time i knew (or more, knew of) trix rabbit, he

- defended the name redskins for the sports team (idk and idc which sport it is) even after our sociology teacher explained to us that the name was inspired by the bloody scalps of native americans after being brutalized, and then when the teacher showed us a quote of a coach saying basically the exact same thing as this guy had said nearly word for word and basically was like “so you agree with him then?” (not even in a judgy “you’re wrong” sort of way, just asking) he started crying and yelling at our teacher for “comparing him to a racist”

- decided to become a SoundCloud rapper and released a song that was basically a 2019 version of motley crue’s smokin’ in the boys room and a song where he namedropped his ex that he had a very messy and known about breakup with and claimed he “just chose a random name”

- got cast as spot conlon in our school’s production of newsies and did not attend a single rehearsal, show ended up getting canceled cuz of covid before we could recast the role

- was chosen by his class for what was essentially an annual boy’s beauty pageant (that i was very involved in behind the scenes with student council) every year and sang a bo burnham song every single year until his senior year when he went on stage and pretended he was going to sing bohemian rhapsody, had his friend come on stage and smash a glass bottle over his head, realized the “glass” bottle was indestructible and nearly got himself knocked out, and then proceeded to give a powerpoint presentation while on a hoverboard and shave his head on stage

- blocked me on instagram when we had literally only spoken once in my entire high school career (probably cuz he found out i was talking shit about him for being racist)

also my other best friend (later on in high school) and i called him turtle turtle cuz his last name was similar to turtle and he was basically like the school celebrity to us, not in an idolizing or simping for him sorta way but more like he was just a meme to us lmao (prolly why he blocked me)

also bo’s vocals in art is dead specifically sound exactly like his voice and it makes me uncomfy

(Sneak Peek) (Chapter One)

[magicallymeta]

one day i thought, why can't i be sailor moon?

or more accurately, i thought, if usagi gets to be sailor moon, then who is my sailor moon self?

then i realized, if chibi usa contains within her dark lady, then within me i must contain a darkness, as well.

and since i was dealing with the loss of my dad, a pandemic, and a lifetime of trauma, i thought: why not write that story and figure it all out somehow?

that's magically meta.

or at least, that's what it started as. over a year or so ago.

writing can be a very lonely process, and as someone who struggles to stick to one thing at a time, i decided this topic -- magically meta -- would be a good way to better focus allllllll of my creative energy, instead of having "this writing project" and "that crafty project", and since i was already creating two different characters within myself, why not create cosplays? why not curate outfits that compliment these two identities within myself?

that turned into an instagram account, where i started posted pictures of myself and following the little video trends i most fancied and trying to A) stop feeling so scared and insecure of being on camera and B) find pleasure in taking my time with things. i was able to learn more about myself when i started, but i realized that there was more i wanted to be doing, something i wanted to hone into a more active way to engage with both the world and my two new characters.

hence: the youtube channel.

it feels dumb and weird to be talking about any of this since i haven't even posted a video yet, but like, i want to document on some level just how dumb and hard this stuff is as i go through it. i've already tried filming two different formats for my videos and i hated them both; a third is on the way that i'm feeling far more confident about, but even if that element becomes easier, guess what suckas -- i'm going to have to learn how to edit after that!

so why do any of that then? why not just write a little graphic novel, find an artist, and hope for the best? because i'm lonely and i need engagement. i need an outlet. why else do any of us end up on this hellsite? on this purgatory known as the world wide web? to connect, dummies.

so here i am. connecting.

in case you're wondering, the characters are dawni rae (sailor moon) and rachie (dark lady) -- i'm so excited to share them with other crybabies so we can all fit in, finally.

[i-miss-music-247]

Has anyone screamed about how bad the new tags section is...

[glass--beach]

i will say that tumblr has only gotten more ideal for me as its become less successful. this used to be “the hellsite” but now most of the fucked up discourse has moved to twitter or instagram or tiktok. there’s no influencer culture or people cynically trying to get popular the way they do on other websites bc there’s nothing to gain from tumblr fame. everything’s much more lowkey here and it’s probably the only social media to strike the perfect balance of public and private for me. i like having a low profile online and pretty much exclusively using a website that most people forgot exists fulfills that for me

[hetaliangrasshopperqueen]

Okay I have thoughts and idk where else to put them so here they go on this hellsite.

Hi! I'm a huge fan of Thomas Sanders and have been with Sander Sides since the first video. And I have to say I am becoming extremely disappointed with Thomas's content, specifically Sander Sides in general.

Now you might be thinking, Em, it's Thomas's content, he can make whatever he wants without your input. And I would say, you're right! Thomas can do whatever he wants.

But we all know that Sander Sides is his big thing. His claim to youtube fame and what have you. The fact that the video that came out today was an AD, for something that we already knew about because of Twitter and Instagram, puts a very sour taste in my mouth.

He didn't need to film a Sander Sides video for this.

He could have easily posted a series of photos on Instagram of the Sides posing with their plushies. But he decides to drop a suprise premier on us, not give us a title, and hype us all up because he knows we are all waiting on the season finale. It may not have been his intent, because Thomas isn't that kind of malicious creator, but that is what it read like to me.

The last time we got a Sander Sides CANON video (not a sanders aside because Thomas has stated that those aren't plot relevant) was 2 years ago with Putting Others First.

And okay, you could argue that Working through Intrusive Thoughts was super plot relevant even though it was a Sanders Aside. That was 1 year ago.

I understand that it takes a while to get content filmed. But if it's going to take you 2 or 3 years for the next Canon Sander Sides video to post, tell us. Give us a heads up that there going to be a little hiatus of Sander Sides content. Don't dangle a treat in front of us, and never let us have it.

Not to mention that everything monetary that Thomas puts out is super expensive. I'm an adult who works full time and I still can't afford an $85 Christmas sweater, let alone a $30+ plushie. Even the Patreon bugs me a little bit, but I can do a whole other post on that.

I just wish Thomas would communicate with us a bit more frequently about Sander Sides. It's why he has such a big following. I'm happy that he is pursuing other ventures, like Roleslaying with Roman, getting back into creating music, and the photoshoots he's been doing. But he has to realize that the more he puts off Sander Sides, the more fans he loses.

I have watched so many of my favorite fanaritsts and fic writers say that they won't post anymore Sander Sides content because of this drought that we are in.

This post is not to bash Thomas in anyway. I think he is a wonderful person and is a light that we need in these dark times. Hell, hes one of the reasons I actually had the guts to come out. I just wish that the Sides would be more of a priority for him, because to me, as a fan of his, it seems like he's dropping the ball.

I miss this Fandom. I miss what it was.

I miss the boys so much. And I'm getting tired of waiting year after year for them. They have gotten me through some dark times, especially the love of my life Logan.

I'm just tired. And it makes me sad that I am starting to get tired of waiting.

TL;DR: I'm frustrated with the space of time between Sander Sides videos, and the fact that the most recent one we got was an AD for products we already knew about.

I have been a Choices player much longer than I have been in the Choices Fandom. In 2020 the pandemic hit and much like everyone I was bored to my core. Choices used to be my escape from the dreads of the real world, but I started wanting for more. I already used to follow a few Choices Instagram pages and one of them had posted a link to an Open Heart fic that took me straight to Tumblr. This hellsite wouldn't let me read it until I signed up hence I did so and read the fic then another, then another, and then another. That's how I started diving into the world of fanfiction and began lurking here.

3- How did you pick your URL name?

It was rather silly. So originally my username was : @headoverheelsforchoices this was when I used to lurk here and never dared to participate, but then I started seeing a lot of criticism about representation and stuff in general about Choices on Tumblr. Things about which I never gave much thought before joining the fandom and I couldn't call myself in love with Choices anymore. So I changed it to my current one which is @headoverheelsforramsey because he is my og, one and only grumpy husband. 😌

4- How long have you been writing fanfiction?

Surprisingly it's just about a year. Although I loved writing since my early teenage years whether it was for school or for just simple pleasure I didn't write fanfictions until Covid or Open Heart happened.

5- What is your favorite Choices book to write about?

I have only written for Open Heart and as far as I can see into the future it will very well be the only book I write for. Because with PB's downfall I doubt they'll be able to give us a story and love interest as brilliant as Open Heart or Ethan Ramsey.

6- Share the first fanfic you wrote with us. Do you still like it or would you change anything about it?

This is kinda embarrassing 😅 but okay! My first fic was actually a 3 part mini-series "Your Love is Killing Me".

I won't say I love it and I won't say I hate it but what I will say is that I am pretty proud of it. Sure there are a lot of things I would like to change and a lot of places where I still cringe but that fic walked so that my recent works could fly. 😌

7- What is your favorite fic that you’ve written?

It has to be a tie between Yeh Dooriyan ~ These Distances and Love The Way You Lie. These two are like two parts of my heart. These are my babies and my proudest creations I can never choose between the two. 🥺💜

8- Do you have a fic that you didn’t expect to be well received, but it was? What about one you expected to be, but it could use a little more love?

Hmm, I'll go with Envy & Desire. Personally, I didn't feel this was so special as to become my most popular fic and also become the fic for which I received the most notes for, but I guess beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder so I am extremely thankful for all the love on this fic.

Again I'll always go with Yeh Dooriyan ~ These Distances and Love The Way You Lie. Because I am hella proud of these ones and they could always use some extra love. 🥰

9- What is your specialty as a fanfic writer?

Angst with no happy ending or the fluffiest of fluff and there is no in-between 😂 This was first pointed out by an anon and since then I couldn't get it out of my head. Is this a good thing? No. Am I gonna keep on doing this? Probably yes. Sorry 🙈

10- If you could write only angst, fluff, or smut for the rest of your writing life, which would it be and why?

This made me think a lot but I'll have to go with angst. What I have noticed over my journey as a writer is that fluff comes easily and naturally to me but I struggle with angst and since I like challenging myself I don't want to eliminate angst from my life. Does this make sense? Idk Idk 😂

11- Do you ever recognize yourself in any of your MC’s or in your writing?

All. The. Freaking. Time. Meera is a hundred percent the better, smarter, sexier version of me. Whereas Lina is everything that I know I can never be. While I try to write Kevin and Noah in a way that I would like my boyfriends and husband to be. So all of them are just me divided into different personalities and I unabashedly live vicariously through them. 😌

12- What element of writing do you struggle with most?

Setting and a proper opening and closing of the story. Oftentimes I am writing my fics on one immaculate scene that came to me in the shower and forming a setting that leads up to the scene and then bringing the story to a conclusion is what takes the most out of me.

13- Do you have any neglected work you really want to finish?

Yes, my series A(n) (Un)Fortunate Turn of Events and my series Rivals Turned Lovers. I have neglected them for far too long.

14- If someone you know in real life (who isn’t involved in fandoms) asked to read your work, would you let them? If yes, what would you recommend they read first?

This really depends on who is asking. I did share a few of my works with my brother and I'd happily share them with my best friend. Basically, with people where I know there would be no judgments.

Again I'll say Yeh Dooriyan ~ These Distances and Love The Way You Lie because they are my proudest creations after all. 🙈

15- Are there any writers (published authors and/or fanfic writers) who influenced your writing?

I believe every work I read since I first could, has in some way or other shaped me into the writer I am today because I also believe to be a good writer you have to be a good reader first.

As for fanfic writers, there are a lot of brilliant people in the fandom whose work encouraged me to try my hand at it. Two people whom I absolutely have to mention are @genevievemd and @mm2305. I am following Sara's work since I used to lurk around here and it was my happy place through the ups and downs of the pandemic. Mil hosted the May challenge of 2021 and whose prompt is what inspired me to create and post for the first time. So I'm forever grateful for these two amazing ladies! 💜

16- Which one of your stories would you most like to see as a movie/series?

Love The Way You Lie I can just imagine the drama this could bring! 😍

17- Do you write original stories?

Does a teenager scribbling in the back of her science notebook count? Then yes. 😂

18 - What other hobbies do you have?

I love to cook and I am a trained classical dancer.

19 - What’s your favorite emoji?

💜

20: BONUS - tell us anything you’d like (if you want to).

This fandom was my favorite thing during the pandemic. And now that everything is slowly going back to normal I really thought I won't be able to keep up anymore. And sometimes I still fall behind but I always come back. This corner of the internet has become a home to me, waiting with open arms at the end of a tiring day. I am so incredibly grateful for each and everybody keeping this fandom alive and for everybody who has read and supported my works it really means the world to me. And a huge shoutout to @choicesficwriterscreations for this honor. 💜
