20 Questions for Fic Writers

Tagged by @toastytoaster22 (finally getting to this I started this and then life happened haha)

1. How many works do you have on Ao3?

8 (i just got back into writing in July 2023!)

2. What’s your total Ao3 word count? 66,608 (it will probably double as I am deep into a long fic right now)

3. What fandoms do you write for?

I used to write Puzzleshipping YGO but I’m all in on Mob psycho 100 now.

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

Just Breathe

Black Sweatshirt (yeaaaaah rising!)

Emotional explosion (surprised this one I thought got the least amount of reads this was my very first mp100 fic)

Float (I love how much this resonated with people)

Blackhole

5. Do you respond to comments?

Yes! It’s something I take very seriously. No judgement if someone doesn’t respond to my comment on fics! But for me it’s important to respond.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Ah. Hm. Blackhole I guess? The ending isn’t angst though it’s just a more intense fic.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

I think Float is very happy. It makes me smile every time I read it. Also the ending of Cobalt makes me so good. I want to rewrite Cobalt though its missing something. I posted it too soon.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Back in my YGO days I got some but I just ignored it. Usually they were just about me not finishing a fic so….yeah I get it heh

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Yep. I’m an adult. I can write and enjoy smut.

But in all seriousness I do and I encourage anyone who is hesitant to write about sex, to just do it for yourself if you ever want to. You never have to post it, you can just write what you want and delete it, or keep it for yourself. Or never write about sex at all. I'll just say, getting back into this part of myself after not writing it for years has been so beneficial for my mental health. It helps me process and work through things. And writing gives me the opportunity to do that.

10. Do you write crossovers?

Well not right now, but I do know a lot about a certain mp100xOPM AU by @sodasexual and may or may not write something in that verse one day. Already drawing fanart for it so.... fanfics are likely gonna happen one day!

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Uhhhh not that I….know of? (gosh I hope none have...)

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Sorta co-wrote something recently that was just for fun. Also @emeraldoodles and I def co-wrote a dragonshipping fic I think when we were in high school? Dunno if I ever posted it tho I can't remember

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

Hm. Puzzleshipping is my origin story. But something about Terumob really hits me in a place that I can’t describe. I just adore them.

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Hmmm I have a couple one-shots I wanna write and I may not write them all.

16. What are your writing strengths?

I love writing POV descriptions of emotions. And I like to hope I’m good at it. Blackhole is this. It’s a mess of words and descriptions that I can just chew on and I love writing it. I think my recent Terumob oneshots kinda get into that space too. I like to hope that is a strength. But yeah it seems to resonate with people so I think it’s a strength?

I also think dialogue has always come easy to me. I feel like it’s the easiest thing for me to write and I hope it is realistic.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Ah.... I am terrible with consistency. I forget things and sometimes run off down paths. I also repeat myself a lot and like to describe every movement a character makes which can bog down scenes.

I have so written myself into a corner and had to weasel my way out of it hahaha This is why I am trying to talk about my stories more to friends so I DON'T do that again.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I did this a bit but I don’t anymore. It’s just too much mental work for me.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Yugioh.

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

I think Black Sweatshirt, my current ageswap fic, will be my fav. It’s the most expansive writing I have done probably ever in my life. There are multiple plot lines, scenes that have already made me cry, and an ending that I just cannot wait to share with the world. I hope others enjoy it as much as I do, and I can deliver on this story.

The other one is a series called Safe Space which is a series of one-off stories touching on different emotions Shigeo has to process post-canon. Exploring the gray areas of forgiveness, confessions, grudges, anger, and love. I think I will be writing that on the side as I do other things but I love it to pieces. It means a lot to me and i hope to one day share it.

I'm always nervous to tag others so if you see this, feel free to do it!!

Surface Tension- 3,4,10,11

(I promise I'll answer your beautiful comment on Surface soon, it made me swoon and filled my heart and I wanna take time to respond properly)

3: What’s your favorite line of narration? The multi ghoul loved the taste of blood, and Dewdrop was especially delicious. The other smelled of arousal and iron, like a short circuit, like electric smoke and hot metal and life energy and sweat. It thrilled Swiss to no end, saturated his brain. Describing tastes and smells, especially of things I have a very deep love for like blood, is one of my favorite things to write. I want to create an image in my reader's mind, put the taste on their tongues, the scents in their noses, like I can smell and taste it myself when I write.

4: What’s your favorite line of dialogue? “Yeah, no,” he clicked his tongue. “Anyone else maybe.” The back and forth between Swiss and Dew. The banter. Swiss' little lies and twisting the truth and manipulation, Dew's knowledge of how he's in trouble already the second Swiss arrives because there's no way the multi showed up to help him for real. I can't get enough of these two talking!

10: Why did you choose this pairing for this particular story? It echoes a previous response for question 10 for Drought, a couple asks back, but: Swiss is my go-to sadist, I heavily headcanon him with a blood and knife kink (which I will absolutely write more of someday). And Dew's the one that cut himself and bled so sexily over his guitar so it had to be him. If there's blood somewhere, good chance Swiss will come running. Man can't resist it. #relatable (maybe only for me and people with a blood kink tho XD )

11: What do you like best about this fic? How I wrote it. I felt possessed XD I wrote the whole thing and got it posted in less than two days. Now, I write all the time, at work, I write for a music magazine, like, writing it my thing, but writing a fanfic? I hadn't done that in about a year at that point. And I don't post my erotica and/or fanfics online usually. I write for people or commissions or friends or just for myself most of the time. But I was way too scared to post fanfics on archive sites. Bad experiences in the past with fandoms and all that. I dunno why I HAD to write Surface Tension and HAD to post it, physically it was a need. I just, had to. I wrote it and posted it in a weird fever dream-like state where, honestly, if I had thought 5 minutes about it, I would have psyched myself out and I wouldn't have posted it. But I couldn't. I just had to do it. Then sit with that knowledge. That one fic lead me to join the Ghost fandom and meet all of you wonderful people and feel so seen and valued. And able to help support and encourage artists that have come to mean so much to me in the past two months. It's NUTS I wrote this and posted it. But clearly that's the tengent my life needed to take at that moment in time and I regret nothing. What I like the most about Surface is how it started my journey here.

A thousand thank yous once again for the questions Saint!

I thought I'd share my playlist for the anniversary of the boathouse kiss. :)

Song translations, MANY thoughts, and timeline under the break.

Noise warning for song 19, Hinahanap-Hanap Kita. 4:23 to the end. Loud high pitched beeps.

YouTube music version to be made soon.

Translations for foreign songs:

Ewan [Dunno] — Apo Hiking Society — Filipino/Tagalog

Amour plastique [Plastic love] — Videoclub — French

Panalangin [Prayer] — Apo Hiking Society/Moonstar88 — Filipino/Tagalog

Hinahanap-Hanap Kita [I'm Looking For You] — Rivermaya — Filipino/Tagalog

This is a collaborative playlist made with my friend.

Thought Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy would be a good starter song. Something about the music. Represents a good start of Alec persuing Maurice, like, hey, I can be yours... Whatcha doin'?

I added Puppy Princess because of the chorus but I know some people don't like that song so... You can skip if you'd like. KISS MEEEEE KIISS ME WITH YIIR EYESSS CLOSED . ALL I WANT IS YOU YEAH YOU. TELL ME I'M NOT FUNNY TELL ME I'M LEGIIIIT

Ewan. OH MY GOD this song is so them. Alec cares for Maurice, and doesn't like not being taken seriously or being treated badly and brushed off.

"I don't know why you're like that, you're difficult to talk to and you're a snob" COME ON IS THAT NOT THEM — Just a smile from you, and I'll be in heaven. Please give me a response, anything but "No idea"... What a perfect representation of Alec's continuous persuit of Maurice, always talking, always trying...

I could go on with every lyric.

Edit: I just realised this song fits so well for Alec's letters and meeting at the museum. Must resist the urge to add the same exact track twice.

So about Touch Me... Some of the lyrics apply better in other versions. Spotify just has this version tho. Touch me, just like that.

All I've Ever Known. Maurice discovered so much that night about touch and sharing and being with someone. He wants to be with Alec. "All I've ever known is how to hold my own, but now I want to hold you too. [Hold you close, I don't wanna ever have to let you go. Hold you tight, I don't wanna to back to the lonely life.]" Alec opened up his eyes and he'll never be the same.

Can't Help Falling in Love With You. 'Did you ever dream you'd a friend, Alec? ... Someone to last your whole life...' 'Alec, you're a dear fellow and we've been very happy.'

I'd Like To Walk Around In Your Mind was added from Maurice's perspective. Perhaps it fits Alec too...

I think Love At First Sight has the double meaning of the literal title, as well as "wouldn't you like to kiss her" perhaps being... Something Maurice would hear.

I Don't Dance. Based on this post/edit. Please watch this video oh my God.

Pink in the Night. Alec yearns for Maurice in the boathouse. He hasn't come. He hears his heart breaking tonight.

Every lyric is perhaps pulled straight from Alec's brain, to be honest. I remember seeing a post with this song in other contexts with them too. So yes, a few meanings.

Amour plastique. Alec reminiscences on the night in the Russet room. Why hasn't he come?

In my mind, everything goes wild. I lose myself in your eyes. I drown myself in the vagueness of your loving gaze.

And at night I cry tears that stream down my cheeks. I think of you only when the days ends, only when my sad demons descend upon my mind, into the bottomless abyss.

Waiting in the boathouse at night, when the day ends.

I ring out in kisses all down your chest. Lost in the avalanche of my heart astray. Who are you? Where are you?

The moments of then repeat in his mind. Where is Maurice?

I suppose Hopelessly Devoted To You and I'm A Fool To Want You are self explanatory. Maurice should really come... Alec really toughed it out, 2 days he spent in the boathouse, really wanted to see Maurice, really knew they had something, and doesn't want to be treated like a dog. Generally, his 1st letter.

Moon Song. My friend said they added it as a general love song. — Why do you treat me like this? Why didn't you come to the boathouse? — Alec's 2nd letter as a whole. Plus bits of 1st.

And you pushed me in, and now my feet can't touch the bottom of you. ... So I will wait for the next time you want me, like a dog with a bird at your door.

Ewan would fit here tbh.

Panalangin. My only prayer in this lifetime: to be beside you, to be together with you, that's my prayer.

"I since cricket match do long to ... place both arms round you and share with you, the above now seems sweeter than words can say."

And this heart won't allow if you will be away from me, my love, please listen.

It also fits the end of museum.

I Want You. Maurice, can you come to the boathouse already? Alec has no power to teleport you there. I hold one card that I can't use.

I found you. I found the door, but when I stepped through, there was no floor. He found Maurice, bit he's not being here for Alec.

You're coming back And it's the end of the world We're starting over And I love you, darling And I am done, dear

Alec wishes this would happen. Also, he does come back later and they love again over, and "it is finished".

Credit for suggesting the next two songs goes to @beatle-capaldi!!! He also wrote was in quotations!

English Summer Rain

The Most Radical Thing To Do

Hinahanap-Hanap Kita. 1st letter, he's looking for Maurice. Thinking about them together.

In my thoughts and dreams, in every turn of destiny, I look for you. Also applies to that hotel/post-hotel feeling. I look for you, even if I try to forget you, saying goodbye, looking back...

Wildest Dreams. They think a lot of each other. They share once more. But they must say goodbye. Alec saw this coming. Maurice hopes that Alec will remember him like this.

I Hear a Symphony. Alec truly opened up Maurice's eyes. Maurice was meant to be with him. He helped Maurice, changed his life. But now Alec is leaving on ship... Or is he? The symphony leads into...

An orchestral sountrack. The Boathouse. Unfortunately the Maurice soundtrack is not on spotify. It's on my personal YouTube music version. I added it because it just captures the boathouse the only way the sountrack itself can.

The Word of Your Body (Reprise). MLM people have moment of romantic tension, which culminates in confessions of love. Just had to add it. "Haven't you heard the word of your body?" perfectly describes Alec gifting and showing Maurice the wonder of truest physical affection and love. He lets Maurice be okay with himself, and again, changes everything. Every lyric is perfect.

Also, sorry JBW, I like other versions more... Too bad Spotify is mean.

I See The Light. Yeah. Every lyric. Maurice is Rapunzel. Movie Blond too. Both the morning at Russet room and the museum. And the world has somehow shifted. All at once everything is different, now that I see you. "By now they were in love with each other consciously."...

Suddenly Seymour. Suddenly see more, yeah? Clive = ass and someone gives him affection for once, wow! Sidenote, I want to sing this with them and their accents... Suddenly SCUDDER...

Helpless. Musical theatre songs seem to be good retellings of their love story. It's why they belong in post boathouse. Summaries and retellings. They're also good at conveying love they'd feel for each other in general, all times ever. Like loving men, retelling a story.

I'll Cover You. Cute love song feat. gays. I like to imagine them dancing around, declaring their love and devotion for each other. Walking and dancing around like in the original scene, sometime post canon. In my own imagination, I thought of Alec as Angel and Maurice (Christopher) as Collins.

Video Games. They must love spending time together. I thought this to be Maurice POV. Only worth living if somebody is loving you I mean, come on.

It's you, it's you, it's all for you. Everything I do. I tell you all the time, heaven is a place on Earth with you.

Un sospiro. I headcanon that Maurice picks up the piano and plays for Alec. Perhaps he picked it up bc of/after Clive, but now can play it for someone who gives a shit.

Something about the melody reminds me of them. And then it gets more intense... A bit like the passions of love, showing up in sharing and touch and more, too.

Liebestraum. I mean, it means love dream/dream of love. I just had to. Also I just like Liszt.

Take Me Up With You, Dearie. This song is just so sweet... So soft... Edwardian to boot... I love how quintessentially 1909 it is. Discovered it in a YT video. The thought of them getting married makes me cry. This song in general makes me want to cry, it's so romantic, tender, and exudes my favourite era...

Let us float, float, float through the clouds, and just have a lot of fun. We'll go up, up, up as two and then come down as one.

Put Your Head on My Shoulder. We Belong Together. I always imagine Maurice and Alec slowdancing to songs that come on the radio together, when the 1950s hits... Alec probably rests his head on his shoulder as this plays and they dance...

I'm using a lot of ellipses, am I secretly Rupert Graves?

Welcome to the 70s and 80s. They love dancing together and being with each other. Now, Panalangin can be a happy song. My only prayer for this lifetime ... To be together with you. And this heart won't allow if you will be away from me.

Just the Two of Us. What a nice, vibey song. Great title, great scenario of them dancing to this...

Tiny Dancer. Your Song. MLM people in the 70s + Radio, being happy and in love with each other. — I just thought I should add some Elton. A different friend, and I, like him. Maurice sings to Alec, "And you can tell everybody this is your song." That I put down in words how wonderful life is with you in the world.

Electric Love. Fun fact: this song got me to share the playlist. Got me thinking about them and their anniversary again. The funky busy instrumental describes well their passionate love. The highs of electric LOOOOOOVE describe the intensity of them.

Alt text continued: themselves together under and the love. And the love. The song has its own tension and it perfectly pictures their own tension. So yeah, this is THEIR song quite literally.

Sorry if my music taste is perhaps basic. I just made it for when I hear songs that are Them.

Falling for Ya. Alec falls for Maurice. "I saw you when you first drove up, Mr Hall..." Something about Maurice, right? Plus really nice vintage vibes with the music. The bit about Into your arms and it's a secure sure sounds like Maurice. Awh, they're falling for *each other*...

Rainbow Connections. Gay and bi people. Marriage. Everything that Maurice and Alec went through to get here, where they were meant to be. Clive. Working for Clive. Leading up to now.

All the things that had to go right, all the things that had to go wrong, that lead us to the place where we were going all along.

On the YT version there's a soft/jazzy cover of Panalangin here. Because they're old and spending time together and being happy. What a throwback, a defined meaning in their lives over time.

Still Into You. After all these decades... Old and grown, together... True soulmates... Two men can defy the world... Maurice and Alec still roam the greenwood. Imagine Maurice meeting Alec's mom in this context. If only.

Postmodern Jukebox cover, because they are a quintessentially 20th century couple. They exude vintage.

Some piano playing for Alec. Soft, tender, romantic, emotional, true. Feels like nighttime. Feels like Maurice and Alec. And a throwback to the pre 1914 world as well. Claire de Lune feels like... A credits of life piece. Time spent in the early 1980s. Nocturne feels like that too, but more romantic. Smidge less nighttime. Ah yes, Gymnopédies. The truest credits feel of them all. None of these actually are credits for Maurice and Alec, but I struggle to find the word for this feeling. But yeah. These all have Them vibes to me. Piano of the time just does I suppose. Glad to be reminded of them at any time.

What a long playlist. Like going through almost their whole lives together. 1:52 hrs. Almost like a movie. Imagine that. A full movie of THEIR lives... But leaving to the imagination was a good thing. Led to this such action. Thank you E.M. Forster.

Timeline:

1. Pendersleigh

4. & 5. Russet Room. Night, then Morning

9. Cricket

10. Boathouse Nights

18. The Museum

20. The Hotel

21. After

23. The Boathouse

24. They Still Roam the Greenwood

I just like to imagine them dancing to songs on the radio, for decades to come...

This is oak. I exist, if that’s the worst case scenario concern. I don’t know how to prove this is me and not a random person .... I guess if I say ‘not very elegant’ endless can confirm if she wants.

Maybe anything could have been my final straw with how long I’ve been uncomfortable and feeling on guard here. I was already filtering a ton to try to make my experience better.

But then two days ago (? I dunno) I had a real life gut punch and really couldn’t handle any triggers.

It’s my job to manage my own shit tho. So I used more drastic tools. Unfollowed 2/3rds of my list. Blocked. Didn’t even work for a whole day. But again, my job to manage my own shit and walking away is the only option I can see at this point.

I admit I hit delete when I was beyond angry. And if people are having fun then I’m glad. So it’s definitely past time for me to leave the party that isn’t fun to me.

I really really hope you start feeling well again, Oakie😒 you're very right, taking care of yourself should be your biggest concern. I am so sorry you weren't having fun here and had to filter a lot of stuff. Please know that I understand and my worries are lessened. Social media is supposed to be fun and as soon as you feel uncomfortable or stressed, it's time to let go, temporarily or permanently.

I hope real life treats you well. I am not just saying this to make you come back or something. You're a genuinely amazing person (not just the adorbs artwork, I mean, I love your art too) and you have made me laugh when I was seriously depressed with your replies and all. I am pretty sure if some bad shit happens to me again, I'll scroll through all of your posts i have reblogged. I really hope you get the happiness you deserve in life and maybe one day I'll be buying your art work for millions? 😊

Write, draw or whatever if you want, but if you ever come back here, don't forget to lemme know too 🙃

And there you go 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Go and kick real life's ass 😉

#Oakfarmer12 #Oakie is ok #Thank god #I am a serious worry wart #I hope you feel better soon #Oakfarmer-deactivated

Akiteru- his brother va is geto??? I- I have to finish haikyuu ffs. I love that kuroo's va is also gojo's

I WAS NOT WATCHING PORN IN MY FAMILY CAR I SWEAR TT

I was watching porn in my room which is close to the garage so im always within the car's bluetooth range I don't think I have the balls to watch porn in the car lmfaoo

pls share the crappy drive versions TT I'm really excited that cinemas are opened to the public again tho, I missed the over expensive cinema popcorn :(

I WANT VOLUME 0 SO FREAKING BAD BUT IT SOLD OUT IN LIKE A DAY WHICH FAIR NGL I think I might buy vol 8 today bc there must be a reason why I keep finding that specific one every time I go out?? I might be going insane but im pretty sure its a sign for something. GETO'S FAT TITTIES IM SCREAMING

I saw a post a while ago that said smth along the lines of "you think gojo ever sees Megumi walking around with his hair all down and gets very violent flashbacks?", I think about that post constantly.

OH! I started reading csm yesterday and for some reason I didn't think the main character was gonna be an actual chainsaw...man. I don't know why I was so taken aback by it LMFAO also, denji's obsession with boobs?? like FAIR ig?? I like boobs as well but I dunno, its kinda funny but kinda 👀 I also made the mistake of checking the comments under each chapter and Jesus fuck the men commenting under it actually make me want to barf :D

I refuse to learn punctuation. Its definitely not bc I don't seem to get it at all whatsoever, its bc I refuse. I don't want to so I won't, and it says nothing about my capabilities to English (help)

My YouTube recommended is reading this convo im certain of it, look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVqUJu9my5c&list=WL&index=79

I don't know why the title cracks me up :p

OH AND BEFORE I FORGET!! I just read a take on Toji's character and im about to sob, I have a headache TT here's the link if you'd like to check it out! https://twitter.com/luheasy/status/1361032992702013443?s=12

We'll miss you a lot! be sure to take care of yourself and I hope school stuff gets better soon :D

gl with everything and have a good one! <3

KWANEDLKANWE THATS LITERALLY MY WORST NIGHTMARE i check my headphones like 100 times even if i'm home alone 😭

ngl i kinda forgot the geto scene was in vol 0 so i panicked when that scene came up lol

he definitely flinches when megumi enters the room a lil too fast

like imagine gojo asking little megumi to walk in slowly and alert him before entering and megumi not understanding anything

csm fans are the worst, welcome to hell 🥳

WAIT yuzuru has ABS?? he has ABS???? what the FUCK

what THE FUCK?????

(jjk manga spoilers under the cut)

i don't believe toji was the worst and that he left cause he wanted to. his last words were great proof. a man doesn't forget his child's name like that, especially not after naming him himself. obviously he had to leave, especially if the theory about mamaguro being killed by the zenins is true. marry another woman, get her surname and hide the kid for as long as possible. if mamaguro was indeed killed, he must have walked away to push megumi away from him- or, maybe the zenins put it in their agreement. no need to romanticize it tho, this obviously wasn't a great decision. but toji cared about megumi enough to not waste his potential, even if it meant making megumi hate him. i feel like toji forgetting about his family was a trauma response. he just focused on forgetting about his family. i was 100% sure he was just being a dick in that one panel but no lol he really forgot about him

i feel like i'm repeating myself lol overall imo toji isn't as bad as people make him out to be. incredible analysis as usual, istg jjk fandom has 530000 iq

thank you! i'll miss you too 🤧 for now, it seems like the worst is behind, my schedule is a little more relaxed! i should be able to check in every now and then <3

have a good one babe!
