Hi there :-) What's your favourite of your own fics? What would you recommend to a reader and why?
Hello dear Anon! Sorry for the delay in answering.
To pick a favorite would be impossible, I love so many of my stories so much, which is why I've been writing the majority of them so many years. So I'm going to gush about my favorites, and why you should check them all out, haha.
To recommend to a reader, it would depend on what you enjoy.
I'm always pushing people to read Stardust. It's got so many good issues tied up in it, I feel like it could benefit people to read such a storyline, but, I know some people are not into the idea of transgender storylines, which, Stardust features pretty heavily. (In the same vein, there's also Screw Stardust, which is the same base storyline, only I've flipped who is trans, which is a WIP, but, I also love it so much)
If you want more canonverse Clexa, I just finished Depths of Love (which I assume is how you've found me, haha). It's unlike any of my other AUs, and has such an amazing idea. Like, I can not get over the storyline, and honestly, would love to see how one of the other talented writers in the fandom would write the same idea. I can not get over the fact it hasn't been done before, and a very special thanks to @sassymajesty for giving me the inspiration to finish it (three years later, but, oh well).
Then I'd say if you want soft and a lot of fluff, check out Softball. It's nowhere close to done, and I don't know if it will ever be, but it's such a soft idea of high school kids growing up and dealing with challenges and Clexa realizing their feelings for each other. It's honestly my most detailed fic, I have like, five pages worth of outlining for it, and a chapter by chapter guide set up, but it's just finding the time and the motivation to write it.
Then, if you're in the mood for some smut, I'd recommend Create Stardust. It's not really a fic, just a future of Screw Stardust (An AU of Stardust, haha) and it does feature Transgender Clarke, which, again, isn't for everybody, but, I think it's just so soft and one of my most beautifully written pieces. And, it's pretty hot, if I do say so myself, haha.
And then, (last rec, I swear) I would say Not the End if you want some angst. Lots of angst, and lots to come. It's a WIP, and nowhere close to done. Starts off full of confusion and hardships, and then realizes the truth, and trying to make sense and understand it from both sides. I don't think enough people start it with an open mind, and are too quick to hate Clarke, but, yeah. It's so fun writing this storyline and seeing how these complex characters deal with their impossible situations. It's not my best writing, but I'm enjoying it.
Then, last but not least, ones that are my favorites, but I wouldn't recommend as a reader (but I'm more than willing to gush about).
Keep Holdin' On - This is angst city. It's so sad and I wrote it about 20 different times whenever I just needed a good cry. Not a deep story, but damn, it tugs at the heartstrings, well, mine at least.
Not a lady - Game of Thrones AU. It's very different and very fun to write, but I have no idea how to tie my idea's together. I want Clarke to be so much more than a whore, but I have no idea how to make that fit into the GOT universe without changing everything about it. I've got a few ideas, but, I wouldn't recommend waiting around for me to figure it out, haha.
Traitors - Harry Potter AU. I LOVE this idea. Griffins vs Woods. Griffins known for, well, Griffindor, and Woods are known for Slytherin, and Clexa coming in and BOTH of them 'ruining' their family's reputation? Clarke, who's always thought of herself as better than, always seen Slytherin as evil, slowly coming to realize, when she's placed into Slytherin, that maybe, things aren't always black and white? Poor baby Lexa, who was already the outcast in her family, giving them even more reason, now a Griffindor. GAH, just talking about it makes me wanna write it, honestly. I need to sit down and make a plan for a story, more than just them being little gay beans (or do I? Honestly, do I?)
Thank you so much for the question! I apologize for the wall of text. I'm an over-explainer. Hope that kinda answers your question? Or if you have any questions about a certain fic of mine, please reach out! More than happy to gush about any/all versions of my Clexa's. From stupid one-shots like Comet Girl, to my babies in Softball!

some platonic thronè/hikiari comfort
"Hikari? Are you alright? I... thought I heard crying."
Thronè stood in the doorway to Hikari's room. They were currently staying at an inn near Agnea's hometown, resting for a few nights to recover from so much loss and hurt. Thronè had had to kill her father in Montwise- Hikari hadn't had a chance to search for Kanza-, Cassti had suffer in Winterbloom, and Temenos was recovering from grief over his best-friend-maybe-lover's death. He felt guilty for shedding any tears over himself, but he couldn't help it. His best friend had tried to murder him, his city had burnt to the ground, he watched his brother murder their father before his very eyes, and he'd had to flee the scene, resulting in a tall tale about his character.
It was all just a clusterfuck of unfair. And he felt like a child again, using that word so vehemently, but it was true. None of it was fair.
Hikari clutched at his robes. "... No," he said after the stretch of silence. "No, Thronè, I am not okay."
The woman sat down beside him on his bed. "... Do you want to talk about it?" She asked, her voice gentle. It was a genuine question, and Hikari understood her message perfectly. If he did wish to talk, she would listen. If not, then she would wait until he clarified what he wanted her to do.
"... You already know why I'm not okay. Please-" he winced at how his voice cracked with emotion- "Do not make me relive that...."
Thronè nodded solemnly, then opened her arms. Hikari fell into them gratefully. He sobbed openly with Thronè Anguis, shook and cried and didn't bother trying to hurriedly compose himself. She understood. Her friend Pirro had tried to kill her, too. The only difference was that Thronè hadn't been allowed to let Pirro escape.
She also had to kill a loved one to gain freedom. It was her own freedom, yes, but it was freedom nonetheless.
She understood. Thronè understood his pain.
Hikari Ku cried himself into exhaustion. As he shook quietly, he became aware of two sensations. One, his hair resting against his back, instead of in the ponytail it was usually in. Two, Thronè's long nails gently running along his scalp, sending shivers down his spine. It felt nice, being held so gently like this. Sure, his father was kind and gentle with him- in his youth. Hardly ever had he been held like he was some delicate thing that could break at any moment. It was almost calming.
"... Thank you, Thronè..." He murmured against the skin of her neck, dampened from his tears. Thronè simply hummed and kissed the top of his head. "You should rest, Hikari. You need it just as much as the rest of us."
Hikari gently pulled himself away from her warm embrace, and smiled softly, surprised to see her return it without hesitation. "Goodnight, Thronè."
"Goodnight, Hikari. May your dreams be peaceful, and your sleep be refreshing."
AAAAAAAAAAUUH…… WAAAAAA
THISBIS SO GOOD?????? WHAT????? MY BLORBO!!!!!! THE GUY!!!!!!! AAAAAAA
