I somehow completely destroyed that last post. R.I.P. this isn’t my night

*Whoops, I somehow posted this before it was done.

Questions from this. Actual asks under the cut.

1. What was the first fandom you got involved in? The first one I actually wrote fanfiction for was Inu-Yasha. But the first one I read fanfiction for was Ranma ½.

3. What is the best fandom you’ve ever been involved in? Undertale, absolutely. <3

6. List your OTP from each fandom you’ve been involved in. Okay, so Inu-Yasha/Kagome or Kouga/Kagome, Peach/Bowser, Sonic/Sally, Garrus/Shepard, Misty/Ash (AAML, yo), Lucy/Loke (Fairytail–NaLu also accepted), Kirito/Asuna, Alistair/Warden, Fenris/Hawke, what else do I ship, I mean I feel like I ship everything.

I’ll list the Undertale ones below on 11.

7. List your NoTPs from each fandom you’ve been in. I’m not adverse to most ships, but Garrus/Tali is a hard no, as is Ash/anyone other than Misty (but I don’t pay attention to the pkmn anime enough to care). Also don’t like Peach/Mario (Peach/Luigi is weirdly okay), Sonic/Amy (but I don’t keep up with the Sonic fandom either), Kirito/Sinon or anyone but Asuna.

NoTPs for Undertale are Soriel and Papyton.

11. Who is your current OTP? My favorite OTP is an OT-me. ;) Gimme me/pretty much any skeleton. I’m into Frans. I don’t mind fontcest/selfcest if it’s interesting and in-character; I think my biggest pet-peeve with it is how out-of-character most fics portray them. Aside from Undertale OTPs, my biggest OTP will always be Garrus/Shepard.

12. Who is your current OT3? A honeymustard sandwich with yours truly.

14. Go on, who are your BroTPs? Sans and Paps–any and all iterations. Undyne and Papyrus. Sans and Grillby. Stretch and Crooks.

23. Name a fic you’ve written that you’re especially fond of & explain why you like it. SSLL, definitely. It’s one I didn’t expect to be popular, yet somehow it is?? I think it’s just because there’s a buncha sinners out there that wanna date all the skeletons just like I do. I really like it because it’s such low stress. I love all of the characters, and even when I second-guess myself on chapters, everyone always sends me such encouraging comments. And then they draw fanart! And I want to print it all out and cover my entire wall with it so I can just stare at how talented everyone is–and how they decided to share their talent with me by bringing a scene to life! I love love love hearing/seeing what people enjoyed about it. But I guess what I like the most about the story itself is that it’s about finding friends that support you–no matter what. It’s mostly light-hearted fun, and the Lady does develop as she spends time with the skeletons.

28. If someone were to draw a piece of fanart for your story, which story would it be and what would the picture be of? Oh man, I’m happy with whatever scene you guys liked the best! But something I’d really like to see is the Lady wearing Sans’s jacket while he has his arm around her from the last chapter. And honestly, I’d really like to see some fanart from (You) Fell Underwater once I get that going because I’m super hype for Oceanfell Sans.

32. Do you listen to music when you write or does music inspire you? If so, which band or genre of music does it for you? I listen to those 1-hour Undertale fan songs while I write. Mostly Waters of Megalovania or a Horrortale one (Snowy Forest, maybe?), or SharaX’s Dusttale remix. If it has words, I can’t concentrate, so I guess I use the repetitive song to block out everything around me.

41. List and link to 5 fanfics you are currently reading:

– A Puzzle Just For Me (Explicit; Mob!Sans/Reader) – Dalliance (Explicit; Frans– non-con warning) – Osteo-Citation (Sans/Reader/Papyrus poly; eventual Explicit but slow burn) – Sooner or Later, You’re Gonna be Mine (Mobfell Frans; Mature) – The Party Incident and Other Embarrassing Anecdotes (Sans/Reader; eventual-Explicit but slow-burn)

42. List and link to 5 fanfiction authors who are amazing:

@thebananafrappe (<– writing goals) @nihilismpastry @jolie-in-the-underground @nighttimepixels @with-a-whisper

51. Rant or Gush about one thing you love or hate in the world of fanfiction! Go! (+fanfiction pet-peeve per request)

One thing I love is the community and how nice people can be! How there’s so many AU’s in Undertale, and how amazing everyone headcanons are. I love that we can all get together and have fun creating something and sharing ideas!

But I also really hate when people are dicks. I see it happen to plenty of people, my friends, and yep–me too. They don’t like a ship or they decide to shit on someone’s writing without giving proper constructive criticism, or they just want to rant about how much they hated a character’s decision to do something, as if that character has personally affronted them. They tend to take Reader-inserts too personally, and when people leave negative comments… well, I just think that’s shitty.

Seriously. If you don’t like a fic, or don’t like something about it–just hit the back button, buddy. Stop reading. Don’t send something with the intent of shitting on someone’s day just because you’re an asshole. At the end of the day, we’re all just fans. We typically don’t get paid to write fanfiction, so we’re just doing it for fun–and to share ideas and stories. You won’t like everything you read, but why ruin someone else’s confidence because of it? Why can’t we just build each other up instead of constantly trying to tear one another down? I’m sure we’ve all got enough negativity in our daily lives, so why bring it into our fandoms too?
