💖😈💭

Thank you for asking!

💖 What do you like most about your own writing?

I have no idea.

😈 Is there anything you enjoy doing that you think your readers hate?

I'm not sure I do anything that people hate in my fanfiction? I get more reads when I write traditionally shippy fics, but I wouldn't say people hate my gen stuff.

That said, people should probably hope I never figure out how to write halfway decent original fiction though because my stance on things like major character death in my original work is different than my stance on it in fandom. Add things like my genuine enjoyment of cliffhangers and magic which can kill you if you use it, and I think I could turn out to be at least mildly evil if given the chance on that front.

💭 What is a headcanon you have about your own work?

This Modern Christmas AU takes place in late 2019, meaning that the family will imminently have to deal with Covid-19. This would involve them all moving back into the Watery Lane house s4 style, something made more complicated by the fallout of the as yet unfinished second part of that Modern AU, which I swear I'll finally managed to finish someday. I also have 1.7K of a wip set in this universe where Tommy has a mental breakdown while doing one of those quarantines where you get locked in a hotel room for two weeks which may or may not ever see the light of day.

So you know that thing where you read someone else's fanfic and are like, "hmm, this ship is actually kinda cool?" That doesn't happen to me very often, but it happened last night. We'll see if anything actually comes of it.

#i hesitate to say it's an actual hey i actually totally ship this moment #it's more of a #okay i'm intrigued by the idea of these characters in this dynamic #and i'd like to fiddle around and explore this a bit more #probably because i'm actually not that interested in shipping as a passtime #but i am very interested in characters and how they interact with each other #bottomless vat of fics i'll probably never write

Don’t look now, but I just came up with freaking Peaky Blinders Christmas fic. It is a Modern AU. It involves weighted blankets.

Veronica Roth’s Divergent AU where there’s no experiment fixing the failures of humanity, and the real reason simulations don’t work on Divergent people is because they’re all autistic and the simulations were designed using only neurotypical test subjects.

#this started out as a hey that might be interesting idea #but now that i think about it a bit more #it would actually work with tris and four's characters #granted it's been a while since i last read these books #but as i recall a tris is autistic reading wouldn't be outside of the realm of possibility #this does beg the question of how you explain the four isn't actually divergent thing that happens in allegiant #bc if tris is autistic he is too #i will not accept criticism on this #i suppose you could argue that he passes as neurotypical well enough that no one believes he's autistic #bc that's a thing that happens in real life #and canon four appears a lot more put together from the outside than he actually is #i think that might be why so many people didn't like his characterization in allegiant #bc that hadn't grasped that #also you could just say #the four is not divergent thing is stupid #and ignore it #that would be a valid choice too #please indulge my cringey rambling about my fourteen-year-old self's favorite book series #bottomless vat of fics i'll probably never write #we'll make this a new tag #also not tagging spoilers bc it's been so long that you really can't expect not to be spoiled

That feeling when you've got ideas for exactly two scenes in an AU but there's no conceivable way to get both of them to work together in the same fic without writing a multi-chap so you've either got to choose between the two scenes or start yet another series.
