20 Questions for Fic Writers
tysm to @runninriot for the tag. tbh i often don’t do these things ‘cause I never have anyone else to tag to keep the chain going, but this one is too fun not to 💕
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
currently—13. 10 are completed, 2 are old wips, 1 is my current wip. baker’s dozen.
2. What’s your total AO3 word count?
431, 629 and counting 😳
3. What fandoms do you write for?
stranger things, exclusively. no other fandom inspires me the same way.
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Many Ways, Many Days, to Say ‘I Love You’
Dirty Words
Done Deal
Sneaky Link
Sweet Surrender
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
YES. omg i will always respond to a comment because they make me wildly happy. although sometimes (currently), i feel too overwhelmed to reply right away and i end up with an overflowing inbox. right now i have 200 unanswered comments that i WILL reply to 😂
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
as far as finished fics, Hate the Way It Feels So Good has, i guess, the most unsatisfying ending. generally i always write HEA. although i have a wip that was never supposed to end happily: Wicked, to Let Me Dream of You.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
i’d say Sweet Surrender is the happiest considering all the angst you have to read to get there 😂 but like i said, most have a happy ending
8. Do you get hate on fics?
generally, no. but i have gotten more hate than anyone i’ve talked to about it! (certain word choices ‘ruining’ an entire fic for someone, grammar corrections, people telling me i’m a liar when i didn’t upload fast enough… all mostly surface stuff that hasn’t been too bad yet 😩)
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
the real question is: have i ever not written smut? and the answer to that is no. what kind? every kind. tame, not-so-tame, porn with plot, porn with feelings, gross stuff, cute stuff, you name it 😉
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
not really. the closest i’ve been to writing a crossover is How I’d Kill, in which the first few chaps are pretty inspired by ACOTAR.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
not copy and pasted, as far as i know. there have been a few instances where i’ve noticed bigger accounts posting eerily similar plot lines to some of the stuff i’ve written, but i’m 100% sure it’s just coincidence. we have to remember nothing is outright original when it comes to plot. as long as you’re not intentionally plagiarizing someone’s work, similarities are bound to happen.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
no!! i’ve never had a translation, a pod fic, or artwork done for any of my fics! i’m just out here in my own little bubble lmao
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
i haven’t! although i’ve definitely talked about it with @the-unforgivenn!! i get nervous because i’m such a procrastinator when it comes to getting my own fics done—i don’t want to drag someone else down 😂
14. What’s you’re all time favourite ship?
take a wild guess.
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
i honestly hope/plan to finish ALL of my posted wips, even though a couple are on pause. there’s a few saved on my laptop that I’m sure will never see the light of day hahaha
16. What are your writing strengths?
i’m blind to my own writing so it’s hard to say. i’d like to think just general improvement as i’ve written more/read more. a lot of repeat readers have complimented me on how i write angst so maybe that?!
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
i could write an essay on this. first—no matter how many times i read through my fics—there’s some autocorrect that i missed or a spelling error or just SOMETHING 😂 not to mention the procrastinating. always getting major writer’s block. and generally being very hard on myself.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
i MIGHT be able to get away with a few french phrases here and there, being half french, but in general i only know english well enough to write. reading? LOVE it. make all the characters multilingual—i’ll have google translate ready.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
stranger things 🥹 and most likely will be the only fandom i ever write for. (unless you count the RPF i wrote and will NEVER publish about joseph quinn 💀)
20. Favourite fic you’ve written?
i personally think my best written fic is How I’d Kill, but Sweet Surrender will always be my favourite just by default—there was no better feeling as a first time writer reading the lovely comments that i got on that fic. i’ll never forget it 🥹
no pressure tags:
@numinosmoon @cuips-not-cute @bettyfrommars @the-unforgivenn @rip-quizilla @etherealmontilyet @wroteclassicaly @wynnyfryd
sorry if you’ve already been tagged or just plain old don’t want to do it 💕

So I was finally able to (almost) complete my art wall behind my desk. I am so happy with how it turned out! Thank you to @elithien @afterblossom and @verauko for the beautiful artwork.
The Pinterest wall on the side was something I found on tik tok back in august, so here’s the link to that if anyone wants it as well!

Now I just need to order a few more things for the little row at the top and it’ll be perfect 🥰🥰🥰

What’s Happening in Canada
So I don’t usually like to get political or show that side of me on here, I use Reylo and my Tumblr following as kind of an escape from reality in a way. This community for the last year and a bit has always helped to alleviate the stress of the world around me. 
But, there are some serious issues happening in Canada right now (other than the heat wave) that I don’t think my non-Canadian followers would know about. I live in Alberta, where our Premier chooses instead of condemning the government and the church for the horrific treatment of children in residential schools; to double the funding of churches and religion. 
In the past month (literally 30 days) 1550 unmarked graves have been found in and around past residential school sites across Canada. Let me say that again, the graves of 1550 CHILDREN have been found across our country. That’s not even all of them, it feels like each day we find hundreds of more. It’s projected that up to 30,000 children were murdered while being forced to live in  Residential schools.
Our country is not as innocent as it has always seemed. There has always been systemic racism, especially towards Indigenous and First Nations people. I’ve seen it first hand from some of my own family members, and the idea of changing Canada Day fireworks from celebrating our “great nation” to honouring the lives of thousands of murdered children astounds me. These kinds of events should’ve been outright cancelled and replaced by traditional ceremonies and events to honour the lives of these lost souls. 
I’ve been in limbo about going to these celebrations, as my boyfriend just generally loves fireworks. But I can’t stand by while everyone celebrates something that is founded on genocide, racism and colonialism. 
So, if you made it through all of this, I applaud you. If you want more information on what’s happening, please do your research. It’s astounding that people are willing to stand aside and choose not to acknowledge what is going on. 
Feel free to reblog or comment with any other information or research on the subject, I would love to know more and understand better than I already do. These children deserve our attention and care, something they never received while living.

Artist Meme
Was tagged to answer this set of interesting questions by @kourvo​
(original post is here: https://kourvo.tumblr.com/post/621355098110640128/artist-meme
Thank you so much for that!
Let’s see....
1) What is the character you've drawn the most (Can be original or fanart)
This precious boy. I can never get enough of him. One of the most compelling characters I have ever come across. Love everything about Fenris and can relate to him on so many levels!
Tumblr media
2. What colour do you often use? 
Gray and brown are my faves. And all other colours have the same chance of appearing in my artwork :D
3. Any colour you are bad at using?
I don’t think so...I love them all, even the pinks and yellows people usually find hard to incorporate into a colour palette. Tell me in the comments if I’m wrong :)
4. When drawing people, where do you start? 
Funnily enough - either with the front of the hairline or with the left eyebrow. Don’t ask me, why - I don’t know myself.
5. What is a character only your eraser will love?
Hmmmm...any sort of villainous character. I can’t draw evil people convincingly. I’m a huge softy at heart.
6. Which of your works took the longest time? 
Big scale commission I did for @pikapeppa​, featuring all the Inquisition companions, along with Fenris, Rynne and Carver Hawke. That one took almost 3 weeks, due to its sheer scope and my relative lack of experience in such large works. Pika was extremely patient with me though, for that I am eternally thankful!
7. What techniques do you use when you want to improve in drawing? 
Classical art studies. Varying my technique, themes I choose and software I use. I try to experiment and go outside my comfort zone often.
8. What do you think of the art of the person who gave you this ask meme? 
I adore Lillymon’s technical skill, refined style and limited colours! She is a huge inspiration for me!
9. What art tools/media are you good with? 
DrawPile, Photoshop, graphite pencils and liners. That’s about it :)
10. Art tools/media you are bad at? 
Traditional paints. I have no formal artistic education and my lack of knowledge comes to the forefront whenever I have to paint on a real canvas. It’s so much trial and error, you can’t even imagine....
11. What do you think about your own art? 
Lately it’s one of the last few things that were bringing me joy. I hope I won’t lose the passion for it. Because at this point I’m not sure I’ll be able to find some occupation I will be genuinely interested in and good at it. I don’t know if me gravitating towards moody fantasy art speaks about my fear of facing reality. If so, idk what to do with that. I do hope to develop my skills and being able to support myself financially as an artist.
12. Do you consult references for your drawings? 
Yes. A lot of them. Anatomical atlases, schemes for both academic and manga art, photographs found online and taken on my own, copying colour palettes from classical art - anything goes. I think it’s essential to develop your technical skill.
13. What do you like about your art? 
Lately - consistency, both in terms of produced results and in sticking to the timelines I set to myself. I hope this lasts. I would also like to branch out to other themes and not confine myself to quirky fantasy characters, so I’m working on developing my own story behind the scenes (spoilers) :P
14. What habits do you have while drawing?
Only the bad ones, lol. Hunching forward in front of the screen, forgetting to eat, drink and letting my eyes rest. Tilting my head to the side instead of rotating the canvas....I’m an idiot XD
15. Are you good at drawing faces facing right? 
I think that’s the thing I’m good at!
Tumblr media
16. How frequently do you draw? 
For the last 1,5 years - almost every day without fail, for good or ill.
17. What do you do when you have artist's block? 
Change occupation and work myself into a depressed state. I changed work places in the last few years a lot, working as an interior designer, draftsman, textile designer, a cook, a bartender to name a few.
18. What must you have when you draw? 
No commotion around me and a cup of some hot beverage.
19. Do you have a lot of stray lines (messy lineart)? 
In the starting stage of my work process - yes, like you wouldn’t believe! If it’s a personal doodle, I sometimes just leave in as am under layer and draw clean lines on top of that mess. It looks cool in a way.
Tumblr media
20. What is drawing to you?
An essential part of what helped me to retain my sanity in the last year and a half. Hopefully a lasting profession that will help me pay bills and survive on my own, if my life falls apart entirely later.
21. Your art goal from now on? 
Broaden the themes I depict, improve my technical skill, work on personal creative project and not only fan arts. And most of all - not giving up on it this time.
22. Artists you've had influence from? 
To name a few: @kallielef​ @kourvo​ @shayafury​ @fairsparrow​ who I met here on Tumblr, and many others who I follow and zealously study their works for clues on how to improve my own work.
23. Artists you like? 
I am following them all either here or on Instagram, I also do my best to share their works on my side blog!
24. Which is easier to draw, humans or animals? 
It was animals earlier. But now that I started to diligently study human anatomy, I would say it evened out! I’m quite confident drawing humans/humanoids now!
25. Show us an old drawing 
Tumblr media
My first digital drawing from 2010 when I first bought my tablet!
26. What is the charm-point of your art?
I ummm....I don’t really get the question? Is that like the the strongest suit of me as an artist? Intense expressions maybe? Idk. Let me know in the comments :D
27. What is the first thing you would draw if we're talking about fantasy? 
Broody warriors, he-he
28. Please draw your most beloved character:
Tumblr media
Here’s a sneak-peek of me drawing him right now! :D
29. When thinking of characters is it mostly female? male? or androgynous/no sex? 
I usually gravitate towards depicting strong-willed, caring, passionate, brave, honest men and women.
30. What did you draw yesterday? 
Started cleaning up that sketch from the last question, actually!
31. What is the funnest part to draw? 
A circle. Mostly because you’d die laughing seeing my struggle to draw a believable one XD
32. What part of other people's drawings do you notice first? 
colours, mood, eyes, hands.
33. Regarding backgrounds, what is your method of making it easier to draw? 
pick your favourite textured brush, find a good reference for mood and colour scheme, zoom out, squint your eyes and start slapping colours like mad. You’d be amazed at how much you’ll be able to achieve in 30 minutes with this approach. Bare white background is the enemy - destroy it! >:)
34. What colour coordinations do you like? 
Gray or brown as a main colour and then deep, earthy, saturated colours to complement the main one. Pink and orange is the combination I strangely enjoy using lately too.
35. What character did you last draw? Fenris and Eris :)
36. Does your style change easily? 
I don’t think so. More like it’s evolving slowly into something more serious and deliberate.
37. What part of drawing do you pay most attention to? 
Facial expression, body movement, mood and light effects. Not so much the composition and framing, he he.
38. How do you feel about drawing adult art? 
Tbh, I don’t consider straight up porn to be ‘adult’ exactly. To me adult art means aiming towards serious topics, exploring complex emotions and ideas, being honest with your viewer. I did doodle a few more steamy sketches of my OTP just to see if I could, but it was definitely a tongue-in-cheek kind of a artwork that I don’t take seriously.
39. Do you like criticism from others? 
If it’s friendly and in done in private - I welcome it always.
40. How many people do you normally draw per artwork? 
1 or 2. Rarely more. Crowded battle scenes are definitely not my thing :D
This was fun! Tagging forward to @shayafury​ @schoute​ @stella-minerva​ @nug-juggler​ @kallielef​ and anyone else wishing to go through such a long questionnaire!

*flops down on sofa*
*exhales*
Tumblr gives me a lot of wild shit every now and again. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad, sometimes it's hilarious, sometimes it's disheartening. And then yesterday came along and gave me the one-two punch of:
Captain Marvel being dolled up by the Russos instead of a jacket, S.H.I.E.L.D baseball cap and a Nine Inch Nails shirt, which is how she should be (not gonna talk about this, just want it out there that I'm pissed about it)
One Day At A Time being cancelled
ODAAT I'm gonna kind of touch on because it's not really what I want to talk about, but it did help me finalize the words for what I do, and that's capitalism in entertainment.
The most annoying goddamn trend in filmmaking (and of course in TV and Netflix/Prime originals) is companies caring more about their bottom line and less about making good content, and yeah I know this dead horse isn't just beaten, it's thrown into an active supervolcano but it really pisses me off and it's why I hate the new Star Wars stuff (well OK hate is a bit strong but they're uh Not Good) but I'll get to that. What corpos can't seem to get into their bloated skulls is that one cannot exist without the other. You need to put out good, quality content with value so that fans like it so they give you money so they increase your profits so you can make more content and so on. But somewhere down the line some fuckhead went "what if we just pushed out what we have?" and just kinda expected us to not take notice.
Now before the comments section gets all hot and bothered because I know some people on this site don't have the gift of reading comprehension, I know profits are important, I'm saying when companies shun good filmmaking for more money, they get lazy and all they can think about is profit and not how they make that profit, they don't care at all about using that money to make more good, valuable content.
One Day At A Time
I've never watched One Day At A Time but the fact Netflix just outright cancelled it knowing damn well what it meant to the people the characters are representing is just disgusting. And they have the fucking audacity to blame it on the viewership? I've seen hundreds of artworks, gifs and a video clip here and there of this show. I've seen precisely one (1) meme of 13 Reasons Why and that is literally it. I'm not following the tags for either. Plus, #saveODAAT has, last I checked, 350k tweets on trending or thereabouts?
So obviously the viewership isn't the problem, it's the racism and homophobia of cancelling a Spanish (? - again, never seen it), LGBT+ focused show that a lot of people quite happily and positively connect with when a crap show about suicide and Friends gets to stay on. It's just ugh. Cancelling a show like this then paying something like $100mil to keep Friends. I was going to expand on the shitty capitalism here but tbh that's it, Netflix are making bad decisions and like I say, I'm only going to touch on it because it's not the main part.
Star Wars
Go watch the original trilogy and it's clear George Lucas was trying to create and do. He was trying to make art. The key difference between that and modern SW to me is BB8. Look at C3PO and R2D2 and already you can see they belong. C3PO is a translator droid and I'm not sure what exactly R2's job description is but it's obvious he does some kind of pilot assistance for X-Wing fighters. I never understood people who said R2 never did anything, because they obviously haven't seen Star Wars. You get that this is an R2 unit, right? Like, there's more than one out there and they have a job they were specifically built to do, it's just this one particular R2 unit who had to carry the message? Anyway, I'm derailing. R2 and C3PO have functions and they're clearly not new, they've been used for a long time. Then you look at BB8 and instantly it's like "this is a toy. This so called character was designed to sell toys". And then he was. He's a toy, he's on bags, notebooks, pens, clothes, everywhere. Disney is less concerned about making a Star Wars movie and more about making money off of the Star Wars name.
Into The Spider-Verse VS YA Movies
YA movies tend to suck because they were adapted from books and we all know how that pans out but the reason I'm using YA books specifically is because my mind jumped to The Hunger Games. I couldn't tell you a single fucking thing that happens in those movies. They're so dull and dead and forgettable and the characters are borderline unlikeable but you know which one I do like? Catching Fire, for one reason and one reason only: Jena Malone as Joanna Mason. Save for Haymitch, she's the only character I liked because those two are the only characters with any kind of charisma or life to them. They made an at most halfway decent attempt overall at recreating some otherwise really great books and they made a big show out of it, hiring some pretty well known names. And I'm not disparaging their performances, it was just what I call, ever since Suicide Squad came out, the Harley Quinn effect, in which good actors get given a good character and perform them really well and, through no fault of their own, fuck it up because the character was written poorly and no matter how well they act, if the script doesn't change, the performance will always be shit. The same for Divergent. And Percy Jackson. And Fault In Our Stars.
Then outside all of that you have Perks Of Being A Wallflower which is just a great, heartwarming movie because the characters feel like people and the brightness isn't turned way the fuck down in post and you actually want to be invested, and they're not afraid to have a colour palette beyond a splash of pink here and blue there and red there. Plus, Ant-Man as an English teacher. THEN you go watch Spider-Verse and oh hey. I can actually see the movie now. And I mean see it. They do not slack off when it comes to visuals. Even by animation's standards, everyone is so expressive and alive and... animated. Sorry, I couldn't get a better word but they are! When you look at Miles in comparison to Katniss in terms of writing and performance, the difference is just startling. The only times I can think of where Katniss shows any kind of emotion in the first movie is when she slams the knife in the table and Rue's funeral and I had to think about that. Without thinking for Miles, already I've got "who's Morales?", the scene where Uncle Aaron teaches him the shoulder touch, the scene where Miles spray paints in the subway, that scene in the alley, the moment in Olivia's office when he just freezes after she says she can't wait to watch Peter in immense pain Like That and made all the wlws melt in their seats. You get the idea. So what's the point for this section? Well, as simply as I can put it, Hunger Games was made with money, for money. Spiderverse was made with love, for love. Spiderverse cared about people who read comic books and paid more than enough tribute to the art forms people think of as lesser for no goddamn reason other than elitism and proved for the thousandth time that it is something that can be used in filmmaking. They were trying to make art. Hunger Games and most other YA novel movie adaptations saw a preestablished fan base they could exploit for money. They were trying to make money.
Rambo
This was a weird one, yeah. Don't worry I was confused too when it popped into my head. I saw the original Rambo a while back and what I liked about it (and Apocalypse Now) is it wasn't a war film where the USA charge in and hooray everything's all right, this movie grabs your shirt and says "hey. Vietnam did something to these guys and they're not OK. Probably they'll never be OK". Then I watched the Rambo reboot that came out in like 2011 or something and I remember thinking "OK so now he's just this dude? Who lives in Thailand... And what, that's it?" There was no scene to show his psychological state today. Nothing to acknowledge his PTSD. They just thought "hey! Let's make Rambo but this time, just give him guns and and yelling and spray some blood!" The reason I kind of ended this train of thought quickly is because I realised that, let's be real, the main body of Rambo's audience just want to see Sly Stallone kill some fools. But yeah, the fact that they just ignored John's mental state in place of mega violence is such a glaringly obvious move to just appeal to violent teenage boys.
The Auteur
My favourite director is Wes Anderson and my favourite movie is The Grand Budapest Hotel (though Panos Cosmatos seems to be eyeing these titles with Beyond The Black Rainbow and Mandy, I haven't watched them yet). Quentin Tarantino, Spike Lee, Wes Anderson, auteurs always stand out even though their movies are all the same, and I think the reason they're so successful is because that specific style is so much better than most other mainstream cinema. I'm not saying that those other movies are bad, I love them and will watch them again and again but I'm saying Wes Anderson could make a short movie and it would be better than most Marvel movies put together (don't talk to me about Captain Marvel, I haven't seen it yet. Gonna see it this Sunday). No matter what you think of these directors, you can instantly tell the difference between these movies that they care about and the passion and hard work they put in and Disney pumping out their 400th reboot.
It Keeps Working
You guys wanna know the thought that keeps me up at night? Someday they're going to make a Fortnite movie. You guys wanna know why it keeps me up at night? Because it's going to be popular. Yeah, obviously not at the box office, because it'll be a videogame movie and those are worse than book movies, but it will be popular for no apparent reason. And what pisses me off is that Fortnite's popularity is only because of the battle royale mode, which has now essentially become synonymous with dying franchises and it just adds another layer to the lack of creative effort and the movie will just be Hunger Games with guns. Exactly the same as what I said at the start of this rant, there's a really noticeable shift from making content to jumping on whatever bandwagon is passing by because you know it'll make you money. Yeah, you have to spend money to make money but that doesn't mean you get complacent in what you spend your money on or if you spend money at all because when you cut corners, consumers can see that shit.
Anyway I'm done complaining thanks for having the willpower to pay attention to my dumb opinions.

Mun Comfort Zone
Repost, don’t reblog!
A valuable meme for any roleplayer! Come display your comfort levels so your roleplaypartners are aware of what they can do, and of what they should avoid! A healthy relationship between role-play partners is the key to a good time!
While this meme shows the basics, please remember to communicate with your roleplay partners!
Key: Bold = Yes. Normal = Okay/Ask me about it. Strike = No.
tagged by: @captaindunklerocklaw
Tagg: @mcaesarclown, @ask-scarhook @devilofthecresentisle and anyone else who wants to do this! Just tag me, I’d really like to know! Granted taking on more Rp’s atm may be an issue due to the fact that I have several going on already.
Roleplay Basics
Locations
I am comfortable doing: (I enjoy using both Tumblr and Discord)
tumblr
email
kik, im, discord (discord is good for me since I’m not home often)
google docs
skype (I have to know you a bit more to feel comfortable with this)
forum (This is where I started to RP so I’m super comfortable with this)
other (we can discuss it)
Participants
I am comfortable with:
One on one role plays. (all day, every day)
Up to three people. (absolutely, as long as everyone is on the same page)
Up to four people. (granted I’d like to discuss things first)
Five or more people!
As big as possible!
Post Length
I usually write about: (100-500; sometimes longer. I acclimate my posing length depending on the effort the other RPer puts into it. You want something detailed, you have to put in the effort. I’m not getting flowery if you’re not going to put forth the same, it feels one sided and a little unfair.)
One or two sentences. (this is very rare for me tbh, I like setting a scene and adding depth)
One or two paragraphs. (YAS!)
Two to five paragraphs. (250-500 words) (You’d have to have an interesting concept to elicit this kind of response from me, along with putting fourth the same effort)
More than five paragraphs. (500-1000 words)
A few pages worth. (I’d have to be very interested, but the time I have available to me would most likely prohibit this)
I am comfortable role-playing with people who write: (~100-1200)
One or two sentences. (I can work with it but I’d appreciate at least a paragraph that contained more than just dialogue)
One or two paragraphs. (this is my jam)
Two to five paragraphs. (most definitely)
More than five paragraphs. (really have to have my interest captured)
A few pages worth (I don’t mind reading, but once again my available time could prohibit my ability)
Role-play Requests
I like getting requests from:
Anyone and everyone at any time!
When I ask for roleplays.
From friends and acquaintances.
From friends only.
Romantic Relationships
** Important: Communication is the key to a real life relationship, it shouldn’t be abandoned for a fictional one either! Be sure to talk to your partners when considering romance
Shipping
I am comfortable shipping my characters:
Never.
If our characters know each other deeply.
If our characters know each other deeply, and I know I can trust the role-player.
At the first sign of flirting! (you’d have to impress me)
Only if the role-player and I plan it. (I actually love pre-planning certain things to a degree. Not every detail but a good basic outline)
It depends on the character. (Granted, if you present a convincing argument I will be more inclined to humor you on characters I wouldn’t normally ship)
If you want to ship with my characters:
Talk to me about it from the start. (if you’re looking to get something specific out of it, talk to me)
Talk to me about it once our characters know each other.
Talk to me about it once they both have some feelings for each other.
Talk to me about it when they finally decide that they want to go beyond hugging.
Speed
When shipping my characters, I like the romance to happen:
Swift as lightning!
Fast, but not super fast.
Happens in about three months.
Slow and steady wins the race.
Slugs know what’s up! (if you’re in it for the long haul you’d have to be willing to be patient with me)
My relationships know no speed. They happen if they happen.
Smut
When my characters get intimate, I prefer:
To skip the act entirely. (It’s up to the other partner but I prefer to go into detail)
To write the build up, but skip the act. (Again, up to the partner, and again, I prefer to go into detail)
To write the act only if it is very special, but otherwise, skip it.
To write the act all the way through. (I’m a dirty smut slut, I will always write out my pornographic literature graphically if given opportunity)
Romantic Artwork
When it comes to artwork depicting our relationship please:
Do not post it at all without talking to me. (Dude, I love art and anyone who gets inspired, I ain’t gonna stop you)
Post it if it is cuddles and hugs. (tag me, I’m a slut for art!)
Post it if it is kisses.  (tag me, I’m a slut for art!)
Post it if it is nsfw.  (tag me, I’m a slut for art!)
Only post it if it depicts nsfw privately between us.
Do not post it at all if it depicts sexual acts! (PFFFFFF! dude no, tag me in that shit)
Do not post it where I can’t see it, but draw what you like! 
Dramatics
** Important: Always be sure to communicate with your partner individually if you think you are about to go outside their comfort zones even just the slightest bit!
Violence
When it comes to violent situations, I am comfortable with:
(My current muse is a psychotic tyrant with a god complex, an axe to grind, and every bit of the blood lust to swing it...give me the gore)
No violence at all! (I’m perfectly content in not getting violent)
I’m fine with verbal arguments! (mental abuse is my jam, bring on the angst)
Some violence, like a paper cut, or an accidental elbow to the face. (gimme!)
Mild violence, such as punching, kicking, hair pulling. (omfg yas!)
Violence, such as stabbings. (UNF!)
Beyond violence, such as torture and more. (*UNFing intensifies*)
If you are going to do something violent, please:
Don’t do it at all.
Talk to me about it first.
Surprise me!
Dramatic artwork:
Do not post any dramatic scenes that that happened between our characters.
Talk to me about it before posting!
Post what you like! (Just let me know!)
(any other questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me!)

So @pugetkink @thefiveflowers and @crhiscornell all tagged me in that 11 questions thing… I might come up with some and tag people later but for Now have 33 questions of me oversharing 
Jeff @pugetkink‘s questions
1. What’s something you’re proud of yourself for?
Graduating high school. I fought tooth and nail through a Bunch of shit to do that and not kill myself in the process
2. What’s that one album/song you listen to when you just need to take a break from reality?
Beach Fossils by Beach Fossils
3. Tag someone who makes you happy!
@mikecardenunofficial aka The Best Partner Ever
4. Who’s your biggest role model and why?
Hate To Say It but it’s Bert McCracken. He fought tooth and nail coming from a city that give no fucks about punks and ran from a church that gives no fucks about Anyone to build a band and a life with his friends. He’s made plenty of mistakes and done tons I don’t personally agree with, but from him I learned to be myself even if no one wanted me. I learned that at the end of the day, what anyone else has to say about me doesn’t matter a god damn bit. 
5. Do you have any weird habits? What are they?
idk?? if sleeping with 6-8 pillows counts that’s it??
6. What’s your favorite fabric to feel?
silk holy Fuck
7. Is there anything/anyone that always gives you inspiration?
no because i have depression 
There’s a small hike up Little Cottonwood Canyon in Utah and going there always seemed to inspire me to write something or talk to people. It may have just een me fooling myself but that hike has brought me more clarity than anything else
8. Where would you want be in 5 years? What are some of your goals to achieve in that time?
hopefully five years from now I’m on the road playing shows with my friends and draggin a cute fluffy cat on tour. I want to get better at playing bass and writing music and honestly as soon as I get a computer I plan to work on digital production as well
9. What’s something you’re passionate about? Talk a little about it!
10. If you could be with anyone in the world right now, who would you want to be with?
again, @mikecardenunofficial I love them so much and distance sucks so I would give anything to be able to have them here right now
11. What’s your favorite kind of jewelry?
mmmm Necklaces 
Aja @crhiscornell‘s questions
1. What album (or song if you don’t listen to full albums very often) currently defines your life?
It might be the Low Mood talking but Where You Want To Be- Taking Back Sunday
2. When was your last haircut, and was it what you wanted?
I literally haven’t cut my hair in 3 years because last time I hated it so much so now it just grows and does as it wants
3. Have you ever shoplifted? (Intentional or unintentional)
Oh yeah maybe.. maybe a time or two
4. Describe the best summer of your life?
Summer after high school. I was (surprisingly) the most sober of my friend group but I spent the whole summer building relationships and more. We set up a back yard to hang out at my friend grandma’s house and had like no supervision ever. Took a lot of long drives in the desert and got in a few fights but as The Growlers said “You know you’re living when it all becomes a blur” I honestly feel weird talking about it because like the more details I give the less Good it will sound to other people but we had a great time and as much as things have changed since that summer 
5. Where would you say home is?
I don’t know? A while ago I would have said no where, before that I might have said wherever my partner is. Now however, I’m starting to think that home is wherever you are as long as you are yourself
6. Would you rather have a pet rat, cat, or bat and why?
Cat? They take the least work and I know how to handle them well
7. Do you subscribe to any lifestyles?
lifestyles? not really. I don’t eat meat if that counts.
8. If you had to write a book, would it be fiction or nonfiction?
Fiction if I could put together a real plot. Fiction is way mor fun to write but non-fiction is much easier for me to write.
9. What are you most confident about?
My ability to love. I know that seems cliche and dumb but really there isn’t much I am confident in. I do know however, I love those close to me fiercely and I would do anything for them
10. Have you ever eaten anything out of the garbage? Or fed someone something from the garbage?
Probably? fed someone no but I do so much weird shit when I’m manic I bet eating literal trash is something I have done
11. Have you been in a moshpit?
Plenty of them. One time I made a guy bleed in a pit at a Switchfoot show when I was 15 which is… funny on so many levels.
Andrew @thefiveflowers‘s questions
where were you born? do you still live there or have you moved?

Probably German if only for all the times I have tried and failed to learn it
what is your absolute favorite movie?
10 Things I Hate About You or The Princess Bride

When all else fails- the episode of Parks and Rec where Ben dedicates his life to calzones and claymation and denies that depression caused that is my Savior.

Put your music on shuffle and answer the questions about each artist!
I was tagged by: @mad-allthetime
Name of Artist: Red Hot Chili Peppers
What genre are they? Alt rock
How long have they been active? 1983-present 
Have you ever heard them on the radio? Yes, quite often
Have they released any new music within the last year or two? Their most recent album came out in 2016 (tbh, I only listened to it a couple times, I didn’t love it)

Name of Artist: Frank Iero and the Cellabration/the Patience/the Future Violents
Would you recommend them? yes!
What is your favourite lyric of theirs? “you said you never wanna be saved, well, that's ok because i really wouldn't know how just know that the best that i'll ever be is whatever you make me and wherever you are”

Name of Artist: Green Day
How popular are they? very
Have you ever seen them perform live? nope
How did you find out about them? I mean... I think I’ve always kind of known about them? I only really started listening to them in the last year or so though. 
What is their sexuality, if known? Billie Joe Armstrong is bisexual, not sure about the other members though. 
Is their music easy to dance to? I guess? 
Name of Artist: Waterparks
What instrument is the most prominent in their music? guitars, drums, synths (sometimes) 
Does your family listen to them? nope
Are they still making music today? Yep! Their most recent album came out in January 2018. 
Would you want to meet them? I met Awsten (the singer) briefly in December, but I would like to meet their drummer and guitarist too at some point! 
How represented is this artist in your saved music/collection? I have all of their music saved on my Spotify, I think they have about 45 songs out total. 
Name of Artist: Vampire Weekend
When did you discover them? I was on tumblr in 2014
How many albums do they have? three, their fourth is coming out this spring! 
Which member of the band is closest to your ‘type’ / do you find the most attractive? Ezra is pretty good looking 
Have they gone through any line-up changes? Their drummer left a couple years ago
Is their music more fun or serious? It sounds fun, but when you actually listen to the lyrics a lot of their songs are actually pretty serious. (Much like most of the music I listen to, I guess.) 
Name of Artist: Arctic Monkeys 
Is the type of music / genre they play something you would typically enjoy or is their sound different for you? I think it’s pretty standard for my music taste 
Based off of their sound, what would a human version of their music look like? Depends on the album, I guess. WPSIATWIN/Favourite Worst Nightmare: young British guy who frequently gets into some trouble. Humbug: a reserved, poetic type. Suck It and See: someone who’s young and naively in love AM: Someone at a party who’s pretending to be too cool to be there. TBHC: jaded non-famous musician 
Could you see yourself getting along with the members personally? I have been a fan of this band for 5 years now and I still have no idea what any of their personalities are actually like, so I don’t really know.

Do they regularly make pop charts? They used to 
Have you ever met them? Nope
If they toured in your city, would you go see them? Well, they’re broken up, but if they were still together, maybe. 
Name of Artist: Lorde

Are they a guilty pleasure? no

Has this artist ever toured in your country/state/city? Yeah, she’s toured pretty extensively. I saw her at the Prudential Center in NJ last April. 
Name of Artist: Pearl Jam 
Do you think it’s necessary or important to know about their personal life to ‘understand’ their music? I wouldn’t say it’s a requirement, but I think it helps. The singer talks about some pretty personal stuff in some of their songs, especially their earlier ones. 
Have they ever gone on hiatus and did they return? I guess they’re kind of on hiatus now? They haven’t released new music in about 5 years now. 
What instruments do they use? guitar, bass, drums 
What city are they from? Seattle, Washington
What are your experiences with fans of this artist? I used to be in the grunge fandom on tumblr (ah, 2014 memories) but it seems like most of the people I knew of through that were pretty chill.
