I SWEAR my haunted manor isn’t a trap for waifish young men. Yes I know they can’t resist the allure of the silk bedsheets but I promise I am NOT trapping them here and using their bodies in my experiments. STOP asking me about the mad science lab in the basement. You know I’m sensitive about that!

"I don't know my name. I don't know my favorite color. I don't even know what I had for breakfast this morning, but I do know that at some point, I was somebody,"

Any tips how to write flirty banter/teasing and/or sexual tension?

Flirty Banter/Sexual Tension

Writing flirty banter/sexual tension is less about what's actually said and more about setup. To start with, you need to create two characters with physical traits and personality traits the other will find desirable, who can be compatible (at least in the long run) in terms of beliefs and goals, and enough in common that they can get some traction with one another.

Also: flirty banter needs to be believable for the character who's doing it. Not everyone wants to flirt and not everyone is good at it, so, just make sure it makes sense for the character/s.

Finally, remember to use the sensory elements of romance (see: The Subtle Signs of Romantic Interest and Love) to show the romantic interest.

Once you've done all of the above... when you understand the characters' personalities, how those personalities intersect and interact, what they find appealing about one another, and what they have in common, it will be a lot easier to write natural flirty banter, and to illustrate sexual tension between them.

The thing about writing is,

I write to heal myself. I write because I love it, because it brings me joy and happiness.

But, I share my writing in the hopes that, just maybe, it can heal others too. Maybe the right person stumbles across it, and now I’ve brought my own joy to others.

I know I have, and that makes sharing it worth it. Because I know at least one person has read my words, and has been even a bit better for it.

Writing is healing to me. I can’t imagine a world in which I don’t write.

more below ...

(this may format a little funny as i'm copying and pasting some info from my doc, sorry!!)

-- as for pricing

((I do not accept negotiations as far as pricing! I’ve priced my commissions based on what I think my time and effort is worth while also maintaining affordability. There are to be NO REFUNDS.  If you are unsatisfied with the result of your commission I am open to rewriting it once more to ensure your satisfaction. All payments are accepted through Paypal. I am working on opening some sort of website to provide the best experience for commissions as well, but for now, Paypal and Tumblr are the best I’ve got. 

Please let it be noted that although I am an experienced writer, I do not have the qualifications of a professional published author. I am simply a person at their laptop trying to build a future career as a writer :)

You will not be charged if I go over your paid word count!!

Custom word counts between 5k and 10k will be charged based on how I see fit. **It will not go over $60 USD** ))

-- as for boundaries

i will write mostly anything. even if it seems a little questionable, i'll probably do it. for example:

a super sad angsty character death probably nobody but yourself would want to read, that one coffee shop/tattoo artist au you've been wanting to read but can't find on ao3, or like, idk, a fantasy involving d*bcon, f*rry, p*ssplay, whump/whumpee, mpr*g, terat*philia (monster fucking), obscure s*xual organs, g*re (ask me about this one if you are looking for smut involving g*re), v*yeurism, size differences, or other common k*nks.

i do request some sort of age verification if you are commissioning for smut.

strict NOs:

No extreme depictions of SH or s*icide. No animal a*use, death or g*re. Nothing depicting extreme homophobia or transphobia. No politics or opinion-based pieces of writing. No depictions of child or adult a*use of any kind. No extreme drug use. No underage, fe*derism, sc*t/f*rts/underarms/feet/sneezing, be*stiality, n*ncon, age pl*y/massive age difference, inc*st.

i have a right to deny any commission for any reason!

-- as for fandoms

I can and will attempt to write for any fandom I am not familiar with so long as there is enough info that has been provided for it!! However, I can’t guarantee it will be perfect. Here are fandoms I am familiar with and will write for: 

Anime/Cartoons: Genshin Impact, My Hero Academia, Tokyo Ghoul, Toilet Bound Hanako Kun, Fullmetal Alchemist, Death Note, Chainsaw Man, Spy x Family, Jujutsu Kaisen, My Melody, Free!!!, Haikyuu!!!, One Punch Man, Mob Psycho 100, Demon Slayer, Hunter x Hunter, JJBA, Black Butler, Bungou Stray Dogs, Yuri on Ice, Kakegurui, Attack on Titan, Noragami, Adventure Time, Steven Universe. Probably more, just ask! 

Books: The Raven Cycle, The Dreamer Trilogy, Simon Snow Trilogy, The Foxhole Court series. Monstrous Series. Anything more obscure check out my Goodreads profile!! 

I am 100% down to write your original characters and plots!! In fact, I encourage it! For maximum accuracy, please provide as much information as you can for each character, plot, setting, etc! 

if you have any other questions feel free to send a DM or an ask and i'll get back to you as soon as possible! you can also check out the doc to see if it is answered there!
