tagged by lovely @car-bo-hydrate to try this <3333

star sign: virgo

favourite holiday: new year

last meal: a hot mug of tea and some south african buttermilk rusks (comfort food breakfast!!! ❤️☕)

current favourite musician: probably taylor swift, but as always, it's hard to choose just one. OOOH! lately, dove cameron is high up on the list too

last music listened to: confetti (acoustic version) by little mix - LISTEN. ever since ms perrie edwards put out a tease that her solo music is coming soon, i have been on a big little mix high again, listening to all my old favourites and hyping myself up sooooo much for that perrie music drop 👀👀👀😍

last movie watched: my girlfriend and i rewatched shang-chi and the legend of the ten rings again last night for movie night <3 LOVE that movie, omfg. both my gf and i firmly declared all michelle yeoh's scenes our favourites 🤭

last tv show watched: you know, it's actually been really long since i've properly watched a TV show, so the answer to this is probably something silly like reruns of FRIENDS

last book/fic finished: 2 different answers here!! last book was iron flame by rebecca yarros (yes, i caved to all the hype and read it on the plane - yes, there were bits that pissed me off, but i mostly enjoyed it) and last fic was one of AO3 user venerat's landoscar masterpieces, "i'll kiss you first" <3

last book/fic abandoned: hmm... i tried to read this rom-com called "you & me: a mlm single dads romance" while on holiday in SA, and i just... couldn't make it more than 5 chapters in. the cringe (& the VERY american focus of... everything...) was just too much for me, especially because i tried to read this right after a super delightful wlw rom-com recommended to me by darling @duquesademiel. after that, this one just... couldn't compare. at all.

currently reading: well, i'm back to work, so my time for books has unfortunately dropped exponentially... all i'm actively reading rn is a bunch of f1 rpf fics, to be perfectly honest

last thing researched for writing/art/hyperfixation: "WHAT COULD CAUSE A SCANDAL IN THE REGENCY ERA" 🤣🤭

favourite online fandom memory: storytime sundays where we tell those long DM fics with @boxboxbrioche and @welightitup <3333

favourite old fandom you wish would drag you back in/have a resurgence: HMMM! i am mostly over all my old fandoms by now, to be fair, but if i really had to choose one... probably one direction?? because a proper resurgence would mean the reunion, right? (right?) ((so maybe i'm not quite as "over it" as i pretend 🤭))

favourite thing that you enjoyed that never had an active fandom: ohhhh, i can't think of a name immediately now, but it's definitely some or other book series that, if it had a fandom at all, was so tiny that i was practically the only person in it 🥲

tempting project that you're trying to rein in/don't have time for: LISTEN. i have had the most awful writer's block for months, and now that i can finally write again, somewhat, all that i want to write are the things that i should NOT be focusing on rn, because those things don't have deadlines but other things do *charles_wtf discord react*

prime example: about 2838474829 piarles smut WIPs and a/b/o and chussyverse explorations, instead of... my PWFE fic. some belated birthday fics. some celebration fics i promised nearly half a bloody YEAR ago. oops 😭😭 but, we'll get there. we will! just like this will be ferrari's year (i am delulu) xD

no idea who's done this yet and who hasn't, so i'm just going to tag some friends and hope i'm not double-tagging anyone - also, if i miss anyone, please feel free to say i tagged you anyway, because i'd love to see your answers <3 @boxboxbrioche @welightitup @hourcat @teamnick @sedicii @francophones @radiocheck, if any of you feel like giving this a go <3333

#tag game #tagged!#oh i am so behind on my tag games that it's not even funny - but i loved doing this one!! tysm for thinking of me charlotte <3

⏰ 💻 👀 for the ask game, pls! <3

⏰ Do you spend more time reading fic, writing fic, or do you do both equally?

Writing, because I'm a combination of "picky af bitch who needs everything exactly how she wants it in fic or she can't read it" and "in the constant throes of that neurodivergent thing where they'll only rewatch/reread things they've already watched/read 1000x because they're guaranteed dopamine from the experience, as opposed to trying something new where they only might get dopamine."

Oh, and also a healthy dose of "but if you have time to read you could be writing, and writing is more productive, so why aren't you doing that??" and then I get stressed out and do neither.

I suffer every day.

💻 Do you do research for your fics? What’s the deepest dive you’ve done?

If I even have the smallest sliver of doubt about what I think I know about the subject matter for any given fic I'm doing research on it. I've gone back and watched entire episodes of the series I'm writing fic for just for fifteen seconds pertaining to what I need info on.

I once looked up what present-day food companies existed in the 19th century. It was for a Great Mouse Detective fic.

👀 Do you have any WIPs that you would never let see the light of day? If yes, what are they about?

(Eh to hell with it it's Saturday night and I got time; I'm doing this prompt again.) I have WIP for The Owl House (can you tell what I've been hyperfixating on lately?) based on this idea. Depending on how the final three specials play out it might be rendered entirely null, which'll probably kill my motivation to actually continue with it. So it’s not so much that I wouldn't let it see the light of day, more that I'm not sure if I'll be able.

👖 Are you a planner, plantser, or pantser? Is it consistent?

I flip-flop between planner and planter, I think (assuming I'm guessing the meaning of "planter" correctly, anyway). And considering I do, in fact, flip-flop, I don't think I can claim consistency in that regard. XD
