Trope Grading

I've not been on Tumblr much, so this missed me, and it looks like a lot of fun. So thank you, @bazzybelle for the tag, I'm gonna give it a shot!

I'm not picky either, though I've got a few hard nos. But I can even put those aside for a really compelling story. For example, I'm driven away generally by MCD, but my two favorite fics right now, What's Left by @cutestkilla and The Mirrors that Hold Us by @artsyunderstudy both involve MCD, so clearly I don't hold to my principles that hard 😂

Rules: How much do these tropes affect your decision to click on a fic?

-10 -> very dissuaded

0 - don’t care either way

+10 -> very enticed

nope -> if it’s a hard no and you’d never click on a fic with that tag or or you even have the tag blocked or you’d insta click out of the fic if it wasn’t tagged

Bonus points for explaining the rating and whether it’s conditional.

Age gap: +6

Not my favorite, but one of my favorite previous ships was Grissom/Sara from CSI, which is a twenty year age gap, so clearly I'm not that bothered by it.

Codependency: +5

This doesn't bother me precisely, other than you see it a lot in fluff fics and established relationship fics, and neither of those is my jam.

Obsession/Possessiveness, jealousy: +7

I like this generally, though if there's a power imbalance in the relationship it can be squicky. But if it's SnowBaz, it's a guaranteed angst-bringer, and I love the angst.

Opposites (grumpy/sunshine etc): +8

I don't need this in my fics, but I do like it. Exploring how people are different from each other is fun!

Enemies to lovers, Enemies with benefits: +10

Fuck yes

Friends with benefits: +8

This is lower because (especially with SnowBaz), I feel like it's unrealistic. They're so deep into each other that I don't feel like they'd ever settle for friendship. There are a few fics that have done it well, but it's just not as angsty, so I don't like it as much.

Sex to feelings: +10

It's hot, 'nuff said. And often angsty, which is brilliant. If you disagree, I challenge you to read Someone Wicked by @artsyunderstudy

Fake dating/relationship: +8

This can be good if it's handled in a fun way. I truly loved The Wedding Bet by @facewithoutheart and How To Avoid a Scandal by @you-remind-me-of-the-babe

Friends to lovers: +8

Just like Friends with benefits, I may enjoy this when it's done well, but I find it less exciting and realistic than enemies to lovers (at least in the Simon Snow fandom)

Found Family: +8

I like this, but not if it's the only point of the fic, because then it verges on fluff, which I don't enjoy.

Hurt/Comfort: +5

I don't mind this, but not if it's the whole point of the fic. I prefer more depth to the stories I read. But I never mind it being an aspect of a fic that has more than just that!

Love Triangle: +5

I don't feel one way or the other about this, but I'm guilty of using it to ramp up the angst when I write. I've liked plenty of fics with this trope though, and written quite a few myself!

Poly, open relationships: -5

This is my only negative! I think because I'm ace, and I can't imagine wanting MORE than one lover, I find it off-putting when I read it. I'll make an exception when the point is pure smut, but I prefer monogamy in my serious fics.

Mistaken/hidden identity: +5

This can be very good when it's done well, but mostly I find it's hard to do it in an original way.

Monsterfucking: +10

Duh.

Pregnancy: +10

So, this requires a little background. From the time I was a child, I'd tell myself stories to help me fall asleep at night. And without fail, sooner or later, a baby would happen in those stories. I don't know what deep psychology explains it, but I can say I love seeing how couples deal with the unexpected, and an unplanned but desired pregnancy fic is great for exploring that. So yes, given I'm entrenched in the Carry On fandom right now, I'm a diehard mpreg fan.

Second Chance: +0

My only zero, and this is because I fall solidly on the fence here. I love a fic where Simon and Baz never got together, but connect later on and fall in love. It's one of my favorite things. But I hate a fic where Simon and Baz were together, fell apart and then get back together. I guess it's because I can't handle break-up fics.

Slowburn: +10

I love angst and what's more frustrating and angsty than a slowburn?

Soulmates: +10

Odd as it seems for my science mind, I'm unapologetic when it comes to soulmate AUs. I love them all.

Tagging (again, haven't been on Tumblr much, so feel free to ignore if you've done this): @artsyunderstudy, @annabellelux, @bookish-bogwitch, @carryonsimoncarryonbaz, @frjsti, @fatalfangirl, @facewithoutheart, @giishu, @hushed-chorus, @ionlydrinkhotwater, @ileadacharmedlife, @ivelovedhimthroughworse, @jasonfunderberkerthefrogexists, @krisrix, @larkral, @messofthejess, @moodandmist, @prettylightsbigcity, @penpanoply, @raenestee, @theearlgreymage, @stardustasincocaine, @tea-brigade, @thehoneyedhufflepuff, @you-remind-me-of-the-babe

Looking for an RP partner

So... lately I have been having an itch to write/RP... it's been years since I last wrote anything substantial... but I want to hop back onto the "bicycle" so to speak, so here's to some self advertising and info about myself.

Before you proceed, keep in mind I'm 29NB and any future partners willing to RP with me MUST be 21+. I would prefer it if they were 25+ as it would mean they are closer to my age, but I'm not going to be nit picky about the age range as long as they are 21 years old.

I have some RP experience both in tumblr and discord, but as I previously stated, it's been years. I also written a fic here and there, years ago.

My replies tend to vary from one liner sentences to multiple paragraphs in one go or in-between depending on my creative juices. You don't need to match my length (if I get crazy and reply you in one too many multiple paragraphs) if the creative juices aren't flowing.

I am looking for a casual partner, someone who feels comfortable with me and vice versa. Someone who wants to have fin with me and making up stories for our favorite characters/ships.

Also very important for me, communication is key. Specially before starting a RP and during. We have to know each other's squicks, hard no's and anything that could be potentially triggering to either one of us.

I am very open minded and I am willing to RP almost anything for example: smut, GL, BL, HET, dark stuff, violence, gore, bdsm, a/b/o, mpreg/fpreg....etc. Thinking about it, I might just RP about anything as long as it's talked to beforehand, there might be some instances where I might say no, depending on the characters and the story being written. (I'm saying like if the situations call for it I might bre willing to write vore, which I personally don't like)

I shall only RP in discord and discord only. It's easier and cleaner. I ain't going back to tumbr RPing, unless I get begged to go back to that mess. I don't wan't create a character tumblr blog ever again, or do I?

I am an ever loving multi-shipper and love many ships, however I do have my OTPs.

I don't mind doing RP with OCs, whether they be OC x OC, or MC x OC. I do have some OCs that live mostly in my head. (I might share them one day to the world, maybe, maybe not.)

And now... it is time to put down the list of some of the fandoms I am willing to RP and the characters (muses) I am comfortable to RP as and some of the ships that go with it. (Bold means I feel way more comfortable than usual writing for the character, don't know why, some characters just sing to my soul I guess?) Regardless, I'll RP as anyone and I'll do any ships, unless they are a NOTP. This is just a sample list, if you decide to RP with me, we can talk more in depth about it.

Jujutsu Kaisen -I am all caught up with the manga- (muses: Gojo Satoru, Itadori Yuuji, Nanami Kento, Zenin Maki, Todo Aoi) (Ships: Any/Yuuji, Maki/Nobara, Satoru/Suguru, Nanami/Vacation, etc...)

Chainsaw Man -I am all caught up with the manga- (muses: Denji, Power) (ships: any/any)

Gintama -I am feeling nostalgic- (muses: Shimura Shinpachi, Sakata Gintoki, Kondo Isao, Okita Sougo) (ships: ginshin, kondo/okita, hijikata/okita...etc)

Dragon Ball (muses: Son Goku, Vegeta, Bulma..etc) (ships: any)

Demon Slayer (muses: Kamado Tanjiro, Agatsuma Zenitsu, Rengoku Kyojuro, Uzui Tengen) (ships: any)

Uh... those are the ones that are coming up with some character preference... Here's another list of other fandoms I am in and are willing to RP. It is mixed media, not only anime like the above list.

Daimond no Acce

A Song of Ice and Fire (that includes the shitshow that GoT became)

House of the Dragon

SuperBat (yes, just the ship. I am familiar with DC to some degree, movies, some cartoons -Justice League-)

Marvel (I'm stuck in stucky, but I am more comfortable with Marvel than I am with DC)

Naruto (No Boruto anything.)

Bleach

Fate Series

JoJo

Eyeshield21

...and more... just ask and I shall let you know. If you decide we would be a good RP, just sent me a message here in tumblr or an ask. (and pray I actually see it cause I'm bad with that kind of stuff)

#rp #role play #jjk rp #chainsaw man rp #gintama rp #dragon ball rp #demon slayer rp #asoiaf rp #rp search

For Newer Followers That Came In When I Started Posting Gutshin Stuff:

I figured this might be a good time to go over the kink things I'm into, since I'm a picky, picky penguin.

1.) Stuffing. My favorite. Includes feeding and liquid bloating. But absolutely no bursting/death. Burping and hunger pangs in conjunction with stuffing/feeding, but they don't do anything for me on their own (they're just neutral).

2.) Weight gain. Second favorite. I prefer it to be gradual, though. Also, I'm not a fan of the immobility range. I'm also a very belly-focused person, so it doesn't do anything for me when it's just breasts and/or butt.

3.) Mpreg. Really just Mpreg and not regular preg because fpreg is just too normal, I guess, lol. No birthing or lactation, though. And I know it may make some people uncomfortable, so when I post it, I always tag for it.

4.) A VERY SPECIFIC type of vore. I don't typically enjoy it, but I've found that I enjoy it when it's safe and non-lethal, and the one being vored is tiny/shrunken using some type of magic or weird science. I like it like "I'm going to let my tiny boyfriend curl up and rest inside my belly for a bit". Bonus if it's to keep them safe. Also, maybe a little object vore, granted it's not lethal and not something impossible for a human being to swallow.

That's about it, I think?

Trope Game

Thanks for tagging me @sleepsonfutons! :D

There's honestly not TONS of tropes that I'm an extremely hard 'no' on but let's see

Rules: How much do these tropes affect your decision to click on a fic?

-10 -> very dissuaded

0 - don't care either way

+10 -> very enticed

nope -> if it's a hard no and you'd never click on a fic with that tag or or you even have the tag blocked or you'd insta click out of the fic if it wasn't tagged

Bonus points for explaining the rating and whether it's conditional.

Age gap: +2

It depends on the fic, honestly. I rather like the sugar daddy dynamic sometimes, but it's not something that I go out of my way to look for. And you have to be careful about where the line is. A 22 y/o and a 45 y/o is acceptable (everyone is a consenting adult), but a 16 y/o and a 25 y/o isn't. Like, even in places where 16 is the age of consent, there's fundamental differences in expectations of the relationship, in brain development, in power dynamics, etc.

Codependency: +1

Meh. I like my characters in each others' pockets, but capable of LEAVING said pockets, you know?

Obsession/Possessiveness, jealousy: +10*

With the caveat that the possessiveness is ENJOYABLE to one or both partners.

Opposites (grumpy/sunshine etc): +10

Listen I'm a simple person with simple desires and it becomes infinitely better when the sunshiney one is the one who's fucking INSANE and feral and dangerous

Enemies to lovers, Enemies with benefits: +5

I used to like this trope a lot more when I was younger, but these days I prefer the chemistry to start out in a positive light! Still a good, solid trope though.

Friends with benefits: +4

I don't seek it out specifically, but I've seen it written VERY well. Especially combined with...

Sex to feelings: +4

...this one!

Fake dating/relationship: +10

Absolutely. Yes. Give me 5000 fics where the characters have to meet each others' parents because they lied and said they were engaged. Give me all the oneshots where they're both in a club and pretend to be together to avoid being hit on. YES.

Friends to lovers: +5

A good, dependable trope. I'm less interested in childhood friends to lovers, just because I find the way it's presented sometimes boring? But whatever insane shit Neil Gaiman is doing with the characters who are "friends" for centuries, I am ALWAYS there for it.

Found Family: +10

I mean I'm a queer millennial how could I NOT like found family stuff.

Hurt/Comfort: +7

I enjoy a good hurt/comfort fic BUT I am picky about the ratio of hurt to comfort. I...actually get bored if there is TOO MUCH comfort, lol. They have to be equal, or very slightly more one than the other.

Love Triangle: 0/+8

Like for so many others, it's a 0 if the love triangle resolves with only two of the three getting together, but becomes a solid positive if it resolves with poly.

Poly, open relationships: +8/0

I like a good poly fic, I just read for the want of a jewel by @formlessvoidbeast and REALLY enjoyed it. I'm neutral on open relationships, though! Read some good smutty oneshots, haven't really read as many like, plotty long things with that dynamic.

Mistaken/hidden identity: 0

Neutral! Could go either way.

Monsterfucking: +10 +10 +10 +10 +10

Listen I don't know what you want me to say here

Pregnancy: -5/0

Yeah this is such a weird one for me. A few years ago this would've been a solid 'nope' no matter what. Biological pregnancy is VERY weird to me. I'm not against children or babies! I don't care if other people wanna get pregnant! But I am very much not mentally wired for it. Even mpreg or other forms of like otherwise fantastical pregnancy makes me feel a little off. On the other hand, non-biological methods of baby acquisition are pretty neutral to me, and to go with found family, I love when characters ADOPT kids.

Breeding kink is totally separate from actual pregnancy don't @ me

Second Chance: -4

Breakups and divorce make me sad so I don't tend to read fics that use them as a plot hook.

Slowburn: +10

Looking at my AO3 account, I also don't know what you want me to say here like

I have simple needs

Soulmates: +8

I really like when the soulmates trope does some absolutely wild shit. Whoever invented the soulmate goose was on my level. Give me more fic where they don't have their soulmate's name on them but they have like, their soulmate's scars or they share tattoos and so there's a whole culture built up around having unique tattoos in obvious places in the hopes that someone will recognize it. I like the worldbuilding okay?

I'll tag anyone who sees this and feels like interacting! Always fun to see what people are into most <3

Is there a trope you’ve yet to try your hand at, but really want to?

Is there a trope you wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole?

Is there a trope you’ve yet to try your hand at, but really want to?

I've never done a true enemies to lovers fic, and I think that would be fun! When I first got into F1, I thought it would be interesting to do a fic where Daniel and Max really were the antagonists Drive to Survive portrayed them as. Now, I'm not sure anyone would want to read it, so idk if I'll summon the will to write it, but I still think about it from time to time.

ALSO, despite my love of sex pollen/fuck or die/[x] made them do it, I have NEVER written one, and that's a travesty. I really need to do that someday.

Is there a trope you wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole?

A/B/O, lol. I love you all so much, but being like the only(?) person in F1 fandom who doesn't do a/b/o can be so lonely!!

Semi-related, but I'm very picky about both mpreg and kidfic. I would write and have considered writing mpreg, but not from either a fluff or smutty perspective, which is the usual go-to. So basically I'd write mpreg no one would want to read, haha. And kidfic is so hit or miss for me. Writing kids is very hard, and I feel like I need a very good reason to spend that kind of effort on them.

Top Five Fanfic Tropes

yessss i was hoping for one like this!

these are all with drarry in mind, but i've also just always liked these tropes across fandoms, i'm pretty consistent.

getting back together!!! i love the angst, i love second chances, i love grappling with wrong place, wrong time circumstances, i love it when the love is there but nothing else worked and then you get to a place where it finally does...my fave. i love it for drarry, especially in a scenario where they get together and they're not quite ready for each other and it ends badly...and then years later they are ready for each other and that past relationship actually helped them get there.

soulmates/soulmarks/soulbonds etc. i will read most versions of this, but i especially love when it's inverted a bit and one person rejects the concept and they find their way together around the soulmate stuff. love two characters breaking a bond and then choosing each other.

friends (or enemies) with benefits to lovers/partners. i feel like i've said this before but i'm very picky about pining; i don't love mutual pining all that much. but this trope is one of the instances where that works for me. i love it when they're having sex and they both want more but they're too afraid to go for it. or if it's not mutual pining, even better; i love the idea of one of them wanting more and the other one never even considering more could be possible until they realize how the other feels. i love when people fall in love in bed, and let the rest in around that. and btw i vastly prefer this to friends to lovers. i want the messiness and the intimacy and the angst.

hurt/comfort in all forms tbh. an obvious one but it's just essential, right? it's the chicken in chicken drarry soup.

kidfic, with or without mpreg. i feel like this is super obvious too but i just love the sort of heightened stakes of family thrown in the mix, you know? like it's not just a love story, it's a love story built around all the ups and downs and difficulties and joys of having kids involved. i have this very specific thing for harry or draco falling in love by seeing each other love other people like kids (or animals, i feel like that lives in the same corner of my brain). "i can't help it, i love the way men love" etc.

#asks #anonymous #top 5 lists #ask meme #i'm def missing some good ones here #creature fics #memory loss #god i eat all of those up #arranged marriage is another good one ahhh or like marriage of convenience #sex pollen 👀 especially when it's angsty and kind of fucked up #tbh i like omegaverse fics too i'm not fancy #see i may be a hater but i like a lot of tropes too #anyway #that's enough out of me

🍉 🍎 🥭 for the asks!

🍉 Do you prefer to write short fics or long fics? Multichaptered works or single ones? Why?

Long, short fics lol. Anywhere between 3k-20k is my sweet spot. I hate multichapters. I always shoot myself in the foot with them. (she said, tackling what's looking to be a 100k fic. *sobs*).

And ahhh I guess I just don't have the motivation? Writing is just a hobby, I enjoy it but it's not like it's a passion. I find research boring and tedious. I edit as I go because going back and rereading everything tries my patience. And my real life is very busy and hectic. I'm married to my job and on my off days all I wanna do is sleep haha. BUT! The reason I write chapter-by-chapter is because the readers keep me going! Every comment, every tag, or even just a mention, fills me with the biggest boost of confidence and inspiration to get the work done. To push through the fog and write. At the end of the day, I love doing this, I love writing fanfiction. And I do it for myself, so whenever someone else likes my stuff enough to tell me, it fills me with the biggest boost of serotonin, because that means we are kin. You like this too? Fantastic. Let's scream about it together lol.

I know I sound like a downer but I swear I'm having a good time. I wouldn't be publishing it if I wasn't :) I just ask for patience <3

(Also the dreamling crowd is just so cool. This is one of the best fandoms I've been in and I hope this lasts for a long time)

🍎 Is there anything you straight-up won’t write?

MPREG. BDSM. Dirty talk. Hard drug use (wrote it once, reread it later and cringed so hard, never again). Significant age difference. These are also things I typically don't read either. I'm not a picky reader, but I'm very picky about what I write. It's why I usually don't ask for prompts (and I actually appreciate that no one sends me any unprompted lol. I still have a few in my askbox that I did ask for, and I'm gonna get to them, I swear. They are actually very good haha, it might just be a while).

🥭 Rank from most enjoyable/fun to write to least: Fluff, Smut, Angst, Crack.

IN ORDER: Angst, Fluff, Smut, Crack.

I love writing arguments. I love melodrama. I love writing in the little details of gestures and breathing and going on lil tangents about the charged emotion in the room. I don't write it enough I think lol but I always have the most fun writing angst :)

Waddup with the 😈👶📘

Oh god I know the one you are talking about bvcbcv Okay so, this fic went from a simple cute mpreg fic to like.... Lovecraftian horror with far more twists and turns then I could keep track of, and I changed up how I wanted it to go each time! I often think about this along with my dragon AU so much so that they ended up merging together because if I'm to make baby OC's they might as well be dragon demon baby ocs because Marry Sueing characters is fun fuck anyone who says otherwise lmao ...Anyways yea the fic got too complicated and I constantly go back to revise it again and again and cant seem to find the story going the way I like. I figured I start with the dragon AU to at least establish Mephistos and Shiros relationship in that universe before I make them have a kid... or two... or three.. Okay on to actually explaining the plot of... Both? We'll start with the first part, DRAGONS. This AU is set in a world where dragons are separate magical beings that are born from condensed Assian magic. This magic is not at all associated with demons, so dragons, elementals and things made from Assian magic are not bound to any demon king or demons in general, they are their own thing. I hope this made sense (I don't have a way of explaining it just yet) Dragon magic is incredibly powerful too, it can reach world ending levels of power even... However, dragon magic specifically needs a host. Similar to demons, the magic is more so parasitic in that it needs a body that can contain it. The thing is, while demons are picky with their hosts. Dragon magic is not so much. The magic will spend a long time hopping from host to host until something lands and lasts long enough for the host to begin turning into a dragon. Dragon magic, like most magic coming from Assiah, will fade away overtime if its just floating around without a body. No body, no magic container. For that reason this magic will body hop around. It can go into anything. Animals, humans, and in very interesting cases... It will often even buddy up with already possessed bodies too. Which brings us to our good friends Mephisto, Shiro and Yuri! Upon investigating an "anomaly" located in a remote ruins somewhere (don't know exactly where yet) The trio gets into a fight with an enraged and injured dragon. While fighting the dragon, Shiro nearly gets killed trying to take it on by himself mostly, which prompts Mephisto to stop time just as he almost got squashed by the palm of the dragons hand. However, the dragon begins to move slowly on its own, resisting Mephistos magic. Shiro gets out of the way on Mephistos call, knowing he cant freeze it for long... But then just as Mephisto resumes time again, the dragon very quickly switched from what it was doing to lunge at Mephisto, catching him between its teeth. Mephisto ends the fight by summoning a bunch of clock hands to spear the dragon to a nearby hill. The dragons jaw slackened after a minute of being speared and slowly dies... Mephisto gets out of the beasts maw with severe injuries to his abdomen and pelvis. After that battle Mephisto suffers from recovering the injury, apparently demon healing doesn't extend to this type of wound. So he heals at a very slow rate compared to even human standards, which is odd and prompts the order to send in specialists to take a look at him. From there its all a bit blurry as the scenes all changed up a lot and I never have a coherent idea for anything beyond this point. I just know that Mephisto then gains a dragon form that he cannot control and often turns into a dragon either out of stress, anger, or not venting out the magic enough so it builds up until his body cant take it and he goes berserk. Now, the mpreg fic actually was written before but I abandoned it because I lost interest with that one in favor of the new version of it. The new version has been redone over and over because unfortunately I'm indecisive and cant decide how I want it to go lol. I just wanna explore Mephiro with their own little fuck ups- I mean, cute children... That definitely wont eat them alive or anything.. No no >.> its all fluff I swear ^^ I cant get too far talking about this because I cant think of any specifics or how far along it is since its very different from the old one. Best I can do is mention it but uh... If you have specific questions I will do my best to answer those!

I’ve been reading your fic reviews. You seem very positive. Are there any trope you don’t like? Or any things in fic that you don’t like reading? Got any specific thing that would put you off reading?

First of, thank you for reading the reviews! The main point of @the-lima-bean's Theme Days is to rec the fics that people send in, but I like to write my own little (or not so little) reviews to go with them on Tuesdays and Fridays for as long as I have the time to do so. I won't always be able to do that, but for now I'm having fun with it :)

I'm always happy to talk about my interests, so this is became a very long post, and most of the answers are under the cut ;)

I do always try to find the positivity in everything I do, including reading and reviewing fic. That is not to say that there are never things I dislike or that bother me in what I read, but with all the negativity that is already out in the world, I don't want to contribute to that if I can help it.

That being said, yes. There are definitely things that I don't like reading. Mpreg, for one is a trope that I just can't wrap my mind around. Dystopian or hybrid fics are also things that I tried, but just can't get into. Anything to do with non con between the (main) characters (human or otherwise) is a no for me as well, but I can sometimes stomach it if it is part of the plot that something like that happens in someone's story arc (non-graphic).

Incest of any kind will never get more than a cursory glance. Slavery fics are usually fairly dark and have a high measure of non/dub con, so those are often a hit and miss, and something that I have been debating on recently actually.

Also, zombies. I can tolerate almost every supernatural creature, and I quite enjoy a good vampire fic every now and then, but zombies freak me out. Same with anything that could classify as (supernatural) horror. If it's too scary for Scooby Doo, it's too scary for me.

Another thing that seriously bums me out is if a fic is tagged with my OTP (Klaine for Glee, obviously, but I also read in other fandoms), and the fic then does not have them as endgame.

I also refuse to read Real Person Fiction where real people are the main (romantic) focus. I don't judge anybody who reads or writes it, but I simply don't feel comfortable with it, so I avoid it.

There are squicks I filter out when dealing with sexually explicit fics, but I won't go into detail about those lol.

Now, as for the technical stuff, WIPs are a thing I struggle with. I want to be able to support writers during their writing process, but the suspense is not something I'm good with and I tend to mostly read completed fics as a result. If I find a WIP I like the look of, sometimes I'll subscribe to it and wait until it's finished and read it then.

I am far less picky with completed fics, however. There are, of course, always fics that are so badly written that I just can't make it through, but in general I try to give everything that catches my eye a fair chance even if it would never win a Pulitzer Prize . I also always leave kudos when I have read at least half a fic, even if something happens later on that makes me nope out.

I've always seen kudos as a message to the author that I acknowledge and appreciate the time and effort they put into writing the fic even if it wasn't my thing or if I have to nope out for personal reasons, whereas bookmarks are for the things I want to keep track of having read (which are most fics I finish).

I've only recently been able to get over parts of my social anxiety and found my voice for commenting, so there are many, many fics that I have read and not commented on, but I am trying to rectify that with the fics I (re)read now.

My mood is a very important factor in what I read and when. If I feel good and strong, I can deal with an angsty fic much easier, and if my depression is lurking again (or if I just want to keep feeling happy and light-hearted), I will search out the fluffier fics.

So, to conclude: Yes, there are many things I can or will not read, but I try to give almost everything fair consideration, and it is mostly dependent on my mood what I read at any given moment.

i just dug up your posts about J&S and their dynamic on their own and within the Marauders four and I am simple enamored with everything you say, i would read a whole essay if you had one <333

also can i get 5 and 44 for the ask game?

Ahh thank you so much, I decided a while ago to post what I enjoy so it's nice that it resonates! I have lot of drafts and also some asks that are long overdue responses (my mind's a mess so they take a while to structure coherently but if you’ve ever sent me an ask, I'm not ignoring it I'm just incredibly slow!) so maybe those will do instead of essays?? (although I can’t control my word counts so maybe they’ll feel like essays💀)

Also I just realised you wrote Benefits which I loved! <33

5. What are your fanfic pet peeves? Do they have a huge effect on whether or not you decide to read something?

This is lowkey tough. I don’t have too many pet peeves so much as things I don’t agree with but that I can skim over. Things that I flat-out won't read (mainly ships, and cis mpreg) are things I filter out anyway, I’m good at knowing what won’t work for me by now. It always comes down to characterisation for me, as soon as I stop believing in or recognising the character, I’m out. I do feel like I’m super picky with small things so I try to breeze past things that don’t hugely matter.

Like I often cringe at the way people write house-elves that aren’t in the series, especially house elf names? This is petty of me but “Tippy” and “Tiffy” make my skin crawl. Again, am I just being a mean pedant, but the names of house-elves in the series have harsher consonants - Hokey, Kreacher, Winky, Dobby. I also don’t really like reading about the Potters as having a house-elf because as much as they were rich and pureblood, they were clearly not part of the pureblood elite and I think they’d deviate from the more antiquated, traditional aspects of old wizarding families. In my head Fleamont and Euphemia are old rich hippies but it’s not really a make-or-break.

Dialogue can make or break a fic for me, and dialogue that is just there for the plot and doesn’t take on any traits of the person speaking it is something I struggle to stick with - again that’s characterisation, I struggle with OOC stuff but I also struggle when the characters are like, fine, but essentially blank slates who I wouldn’t recognise if I didn’t know who they were supposed to be.

44. Rant about something writing related.

God, my main writing rants are at myself. Like when I find something I wrote years ago (because I didn't write basically anything between 2017-2021) and I'm like "ooh this is good!" and I've left it halfway through a crucial sentence and because it's been years I can't remember where it was going and I have to abandon it because I don't have the mental room for another WIP right now. But also sometimes these pieces are helpful and fit into other things I’m working on, so swings and roundabouts.

And also just the way I write which is random scenes as they come to me, which I think isn’t an uncommon way to write but I would like it if I made it easier for myself and had a brain that could write chronologically. And I also wish I didn't forget the scenes/sentences I think of on public transport or when I'm in bed about to fall asleep.

More generally, I think the attitude towards writing in fandom needs recalibrating. Writing is a skill, editing is an important part of writing. Within fandom I think you should write for yourself, put what you want to see out there, but at the same time if you rush it and immediately publish it and then get upset that you haven’t had as much engagement as you’d like then maybe just take more time with your work, spend time with it, edit even if it’s just one word or letter at a time. Knowing where you’re headed also immediately makes your work more cohesive because I feel like it’s very clear when a writer has absolutely no idea and just wants to get the first chapter out there for the validation of it, or when a work jumps from one point to the other with no real character journey to get there and like yeah, the release at the end is great but the pay-off is better with the build-up. If it’s for fun and you don’t care, go for it, but I think there’s a lot of entitlement in writing these days that is unsustainable.

🎶~~ hello! i'm pilot, i'm 25+ , pronouns she/her and looking for some mpreg-centred rp in the marvel fandom

mostly interested in writing as Stephen Strange or Peter Quill, not picky at all about the ships but my favourites are StrangexLoki or PeterxThor

also very open to plots! kind of looking for nonconventional mpreg where it's completely unnatural, as I'm not very interested in omegaverse, but like I said, I'm very open to plots so all can be discussed

would prefer my characters to be the ones getting pregnant but this is also open for discussion!

open to smut/dubcon

no one/liner rp

rp partner must be 18+ and I only rp on discord

mostly very excited to meet people and write fun ships!

discord is pinkpilot#0820

13. Biggest turn ons

Lord I knew this one was coming, LOL. Well strap in because I think I'm just gonna dump everything here and I might scar some'a you. Warnings ahead of time for weird stuff I guess?

Out of the gate I've recently learned the term aegosexual (ay-go, not eggo, although I do say that too) and that fits me pretty well, so almost nothing in-person is really, like, "interesting" to me, aside from maybe types of clothing?? I haven't really explored it much I'll be honest. But in general, I get more interest out of fictional stuff and things I myself am not a part of. "I don't wish to fuck the planes, I want the planes to fuck each other".

Most any of the Planes smutfics I do frequent, especially if they have any of my three only major favorites (Blade, Nick, Dusty), but that's just a given, the rest is the 'actually' weird stuff

I've been slowly outing myself more and more over the last couple months and getting more comfortable just joking about it, but yes, I am that one weird person who's into vore. Specifically, I generally prefer same-size hard (ie includes digestion/death) stuff, but it does vary a little. I do tend to get really picky though, because the majority of vorish content that exists on the internet is furry stuff, which I'm not into but I have to put up with. This is why the pseudo exists where I can write the content that I otherwise can't find enough similar of.

On that same track (though even less known, apparently) I'm into other belly-relevant fetishes: mpreg, stuffing/force-feeding, a little bit of WG if it's tasteful, inflation, etc. Basically if it involves belly, I've probably explored it. Do I know why this is my particular interest? No, not really, but I've long since known that I'm into it, and I usually don't mention it cuz no one else is, and that's totally understandable. Again, I live off of the "you do you" mindset. You don't dis me for this, I won't dis you for that.

Trying to think of other shit I'd be into aside from these and most of it is very light interest and on a come-and-go basis. General stuff I add into my smutfics are usually nice, like bondage and the likes, but I mean, I wouldn't say that's a 'sole' turn-on in and of itself. But I do dabble with a lot of concepts. Exhibitionism (I think this is the right word lol) is particularly fun to write about.

Don't make me choose on the 'ass or tits' question, I will probably just stop running from crippling indecision

#CW kinks and stuff #Also another mention of V0re - sorry folks #while we're here I'll add that I've only posted about half the total Dead Dove fics I've written for my pseudo #I just didn't think anybody was going to be interested in them so I haven't posted them or anything #I guess I was proven wrong when Dead Dove became my number one most hit fic ever #that's right - it surpassed Emergency #by two hundred hits at least

I'm kinda curious about this but what is your guys limits on content? Like what is, like, off limits?

Hm, well. We always need a happy ending, that's like the #1 thing. So death as a permanent end is a no go. Stuff like reincarnation aus and such are still fine, though. We also don't like seeing the twins Genuinely Hurt each other. If we're getting whumpy in an AU, it's from a third party; at the core of it, we want the twins to Love Each Other.

Also earlier in the blog I made the hard statement about No Mpreg. And it's a little more complicated than that. I am largely uncomfortable with it for dysphoria reasons, however, there are very specific cases where its okay and I may include it in AUs. However, my brain is extremely picky over it and even I don't know what the rules are. This isn't an invitation to send mpreg content in the hopes that it doesn't hit funny. This is just kinda a disclaimer that if it comes up during some AU discussion, I'm not just being a hypocrite or have wholly changed my stance.

And as a final note, we're both firmly Kudanobos (top Emmet) and won't produce Nobokuda (top Ingo) content. If I or we get prompts that are Nobokuda flavored, we Will find a way to flip it back to Kudanobo.

Dear Yuletide Writer 2022

Dear Yuletide Writer,

Thank you so much for agreeing to write for me! :) I can't tell you just how excited I am. This is my second Yuletide, and I’ll try to give you as much inspiration and fangirling as a point to jump off of as I can, so I hope you’ll find some useful bits and pieces here. I am very much looking forward to reading whatever you come up with. Don’t stress about writing for me - as long as you have fun with it, I’m sure I’ll like my gift. :)

Please feel free to browse my ao3 (KitKaos) and/or tumblr to get an idea of what I stan, like, read or write. I hope I can give you some broad ideas and inspirations in this letter to help you plan. The prompts below are nothing more than ideas, though - feel free to ignore them or to fall back on my general likes if you have a better idea. :)

Gifts are enabled in AO3, so treats are welcome! :)

Oh, and should you, esteemed Yuletide Writer, want to write in German instead of English, then I'm definitely okay with that. I'm fluent in both, so whichever you feel more comfortable with.

If there's something missing or if you have a question, you can reach out to me via the mods.

I also have a bit of a hand fetish - so descriptions of hands are always welcome

epistolary fic (letters, journal entries, passive-aggressive post-it notes are great and amazing and I love them; long conversations in tweet or chat fic form exhaust me a little)

_______&_______

FANDOMS

In alphabetical order - I do love all of them equally!

Batman: Wayne Family Adventures (Webcomic)

- Tim Drake, Duke Thomas, Jason Todd, Barbara Gordon

What can I say? This version of the Batfam is just so fun to read, wonderfully endearing and wholesome! I love the dynamics between all the characters and the slice-of-life concept of it all. No matter if other superheroes or villains or the GCPD are involved, it’s always character-driven and a clear focus on that. I love how they all get a snarky tag when they’re introduced, how it plays with visual quotes, how it can be light and funny, and at the same time deep and from the heart. With other comics or stories in general, I usually have a favourite character, but with B:WFA I just love them all together as a chaotic mess of a family! Of course you don’t have to write all of the requested focus characters, though; feel free to pick and choose as fits the story best.

Prompts:

More games on and off patrol between the siblings (B may or may not know about or approve of)

SO many stories behind the online pictures in Ep 53! So Duke is a Tarantino fan and writes online movie reviews? Give me some of that. So Tim has concert tickets for date night with Bernard? Give me some of that. So Nightwing has some dedicated online stans? I bet his siblings are teasing Dick about it endlessly and mercilessly. So Jason is trying to online date? There sure are some weird responses to that.

What else has Oracle found (and had to scrap) online?

More of Aunt Kate’s queer relationship advice to Tim!

Where to find it: Webtoon.

Dial H for Hero (DC Comics)

- Miguel Montez, Summer Pickens

The 2019 12-issue run is just pure love! There is worldbuilding galore, relatable characters, a wonderful coming-of-age and initiation plot, interdimensional shenanigans, the question how Joe Average could get addicted to sudden superpowers, and so much fun with the concept of Superhero Secret Origins. Summer is a wonderfully strong and caring female lead and Miguel is a self-conscious little oddball.

Prompts:

5+1 times Miguel ran into his meet-cute crush

5 times Summer was the perfect wingwoman + 1 time Miguel wasn’t self-involved enough to actually return the favour (I know I haven’t put Jinny Hex in my character list for my YJ 2019 request, but I would love to see her and Summer hit it off really well and, well, the rest is history?)

More about Miguel and Summer's adventures at the Daily Planet

Feel free to include any other ((teenage) superhero) cameos you feel like. Please do not pair up Summer and Miguel romantically - although I don't have any problems with a fake relationship fic for them. ;)

Pieces - L’Arc~en~Ciel (Music Video)

- any / worldbuilding

I’ve been a Laruku fan for a long time and “Pieces” has always been one of my favourite music videos of theirs. The mood of the song is beautiful and the story told just so haunting and intriguing. It starts right there with the (cursed? demonic? avenging?) dagger in the hands of a New York street vendor, who is not (or not that we know of) affected by its curse. He tells its story, in which it’s always the more powerful party getting killed by the blade. Now, apart from the interesting dynamics/symbolism that the lead singer killing his bassist/bandleader carries, it kind of redeems the blade a little, doesn’t it? Also the ones killing with it don’t seem to realize what they’re doing until it’s too late. The music video tells so many (human) stories with a common theme and a common (supernatural) protagonist (= the dagger) that I just want to see this universe expanded upon.

Prompts:

Sicily 1899 is the beginning of the story, but it can harldy be the beginning of the dagger. So how did it come to be and do what it is and does?

Warsaw 1940 is also a very intersting part because we don’t see the killing per se, just the result. So how did the boy end up killing the much larger soldier?

What (else) does the dagger see/perceive? How does it find or even choose its “victims”?

Where to find it: YouTube

Sweetest Kulu - Celina Kalluk

- any

I recently became a mom, and looking for things from as many different cultures as I could find that I could read to my daughter I discovered this wonderful lullaby/poem/song of wishes. I instantly fell in love with the beautiful imagery and the ebb and flow of the language and the beautiful relationship with nature within it. I would love to be able to read my daughter more stories within the same mythic space, so to speak.

Prompts:

Kulu grows up, and tries to always carry the Arctic world‘s gifts in their heart

How do the animals and spirits mentioned experience the day little Kulu was born?

What kind of stories will Wise Wind tell of Kulu and other humans?

Where to find it: Your trusted bookstore; there is also a read-aloud version on YouTube.

Young Justice (2019 Comics)

- Kon-El | Conner Kent, Tim Drake

So I only requested two characters because I’d love to read something with them as focus - by no means should the other characters be left behind (e.g. the look in Bart’s eyes when he first meets Cissie again haunts me ever since I first read the comic; and for Jinny Hex see my Dial H prompt above), I do believe Young Justice is such an amazing group because of everyone pushing everyone else to be their best (stupid, bickering, snarky, teenage drama) selves!

I loved the 1990s/2000s series, and as such was over the moon when the 2019/2020 run came out, dealing with all the reboots and all the people and memories lost in between the cracks there. I love how Bart is the one to corral them all, and to remind them of what they are. Friends, first and foremost! BAMF superhero friends that go above and beyond for each other! I love how Kon returns that favour. I love the image of them crashing on Naomi’s couch that one night, just because. And since I’m a TimKon shipper (also a TimBernard stan, even if that hasn’t happened at the time of that particular run - but please don’t feel obliged to write any kind of ship fic/pairing, I love gen just as much!!!), I especially love the friendship and general dynamic between those two idiots.

Prompts:

Kon‘s time / adventures being lost in Gemworld, especially the more domestic kind, with a sudden wife and child thrown at him

5 times the others remember Kon‘s name + 1 time they don’t need to

5+1 of why Drake may or may not be a good superhero alias

Where to find it: Your trusted comicbook supplier.

_______&_______

Overall, I’m sure I’ll love what you have for me, and I'm looking forward to reading it! <3
