i'd be super interested in 3, 19 and 29 for the ao3 wrapped ask thingy :)
Thank you! I answered 3 and 29 here.
19) What’s one pairing you want to explore next year?
I don't have set plans or a WIP or anything, but I'd really like to explore Beard/Nate a bit more. I wrote them the tiniest, tiniest bit in The Classroom Dad (Ted/Rebecca) but that was primarily about finding symmetry in an AU in which I needed two non-Ted/Rebecca characters to be the head coach and majority owner. We'll see if I make that happen!
For the record, @boglady has an incredibly good two-story Beard/Nate series that, in a just world, would be required reading.

20 Questions for Fic Writers
Thank you for tagging me @majolination! 💜
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
24
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
166,478
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Currently: Star Trek, Ted Lasso, Doctor Who, although I'm mainly posting Ted Lasso at the moment (and my Doctor Who fic has never seen the light of day!). I find it hard to go back and forth between different fandoms.
Over the course of my fandom life: Stargate SG1 and Sanctuary (which are still only on FFN at the moment), Once Upon a Time, Madam Secretary (only Tumblr ficlets).
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
five (Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Picard)
plausible deniability (Once Upon a Time)
in the silence (Ted Lasso)
somewhere along the way, i should forget (Once Upon a Time)
Hide (Once Upon a Time)
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I do! I've gone back and forth on it during my fandom life because a few years ago, I read some post that was like 'you shouldn't reply to comments because you're just inflating the numbers' and that turned me off for a while, but I like answering comments. I like talking to people and discussing fic! So I do respond. As much as I can anyway. Sometimes, life gets busy.
6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Probably Surrender (Once Upon a Time), although it's really just tragic. Calling it angst almost seems to soft.
Maybe five (Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Picard)? It's a fic about a couple breaking up over and over again.
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Probably Ethereal (Once Upon a Time). It's one of two Christmas fics I wrote in that fandom, and I think this one is the most magical and very cute at the end.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
No, I luckily never have!
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Sometimes, when the story requires it. I've never written smut for the sake of smut. I need emotions or something to go with it. I also dislike writing it, haha.
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
I have not written crossovers.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I know of!
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
No! But I did write a fic in French once.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Yes, but it was never completed and I forget where it lives. It was a group project by a few authors, to write a season together.
14. What's your all-time favorite ship?
I'm going to answer this as the ship for which I've read fic the longest and that would be either Janeway/Chakotay (Star Trek VOY) or Picard/Crusher (Star Trek TNG), but this is a very hard questions to answer. The ship I've written the most for is Regina/Robin (Once Upon a Time). I love River Song/The Doctor (Doctor Who) with every single cell of my body, but I've never written anything for them. And of course, Ted/Rebecca (Ted Lasso) own my heart at the moment. So, my favourite ship? Yes.
15. What's the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
Oof. Probably White Lies (Once Upon a Time). There's a chapter of it on AO3, but I won't bother linking because it's only one chapter, and although there's a full folder on my computer with scenes and I know the entire plot in my head, I don't think I'll ever have the motivation to write it.
16. What are your writing strengths?
I think I do angst pretty well, or like just emotional thoughts/scenes. Exploring characters and their motivation (vs plot, which I don't do as well, or much).
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
The English language? Lol. Okay, not entirely true, but my self-confidence in the fact that my English is good enough be a writer. Let's put it that way. I find that my vocabulary is never big or strong enough.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
If the fic calls for it sure! But it needs to be done well.
I've never written a dialogue in another language in an English fic, but as a reader and as someone who speaks French, nothing turns me off a fic faster than bad French. So if I were to write dialogue in another language, I'd want to make sure it was 100% correct.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
A little unknown local show on message boards 15+ years ago. It's been lost to the ether of the internet.
First fandom of my English fandom era: Sanctuary.
20. Favorite fic you've ever written?
I'm cheating and saying three because I can.
Favourite fic of all time and completed? Probably Greatest Hits (Once Upon a Time). I'm super proud of that one and all the multiple AUs I created for it and the way they are weaved together.
From this past year and completed? five (Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Picard), hands down. I am so very proud of this fic. It's the first fic I managed to complete in 5 years. I feel like chapter 1 is a little rough, but by chapter 4, I impressed myself and it was a very nice feeling.
Incomplete? I've never had as much fun writing and planning something as I've had working on celestial games (Ted Lasso). I hit a bit of a wall because life got intense and then I lost my momentum, but I cannot wait to get back to it! I smile just thinking about it.
tagging in a no-pressure way (and sorry for any double tags): @broadwayfreak5357 @fandomfrolics @somewhereapart @ninzied @the-alpha-incipiens @writtenndust @quillerqueen and anyone else who wants to do it! (I did my best trying to spread this to various fandoms haha)
