Talk to me about the minutiae of your current WIP. Tell me about the lore, the history, the detail, the things that won’t make it in the text.

What’s a word that makes you go absolutely feral?

What font do you write in? Do you actually care or is that just the default setting?

ohh these are good ones!

17. Talk to me about the minutiae of your current WIP. Tell me about the lore, the history, the detail, the things that won’t make it in the text.

OKAY. This is an interesting one. I have aus I haven't posted yet that have LOTS of lore, but from what I am actively working on–

-in TDDD, the base in the mesa biome that they rescue Tommy from, is VERY close to Fundy's Drywaters. I didn't realize at the time, but Fundy was probably having nightmares just over the hill lmao.

-DreamXD's cool clock realm? Dream gets to suffer in such a pretty place <3 The suffering will remain unspecified. I suggest you think eldritch horror beyond your comprehension.

-Drista won't be back to see Tommy any time soon. She got in trouble with her brother for going behind his back, so she isn't allowed to "play with XD's toys anymore" and can't come back to the SMP indefinitely. :( She knew that going in. She didn't just save Wilbur to "fix" Tommy so they could play together, she'd never admit it, but it was just because she cared and understood him.

-In the Wake Up. au, all sorts of suspicious things can be explained by Punz. Dream getting to Wilbur's body so fast? Nope, Punz. Dream seemingly being in two places at once when they sighted him over by L'Manberg and he was actually waiting for Tommy inside? Punz reported the sighting. Dream Actually hiding underneath Tommy's bed and vanishing in an instant? Punz with a pearl stasis chamber. Dream's copy of the journal appearing in the house? Punz was on guard duty. Dream being in the woods right where Tommy went to try to talk to him? Punz told him where. Dream's omnipotence, his illusion of godhood, rests on the smoke and mirrors of his hired loyalty. Dream did his own menacing too, of course. Tommy swearing that his stuff was moving around the house when he wasn't looking? Yeah. Dream wasn't just threatening Wilbur. Dude was fully committed to some psychological warfare.

4. What's a word that makes you go absolutely feral?

Okay. I can't choose just one. But a few:

"Try." "Choice." "Love."

Just. Y'know. Themes that are vital both in life and in my work. You have to try: to live, to help, to do better. Choice is essential: chosen family, choosing to live, your choices, your autonomy, your sense of self, all belong to you. And love. Love is the point. Always. Not merely in the romantic sense or even the personal sense, but just. Walking into life with arms outstretched because the world is a place worth loving and there are people worth loving in it and the point of humanity is to take care of one another and Therefore Love Is The Point. Yes this is probably cheesy. I do not care. This Matters!!!

Although if I had to pick one obscure word which stands on its own: Sonder: noun. the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own.

What font do you write in?

This is such a fun question I was hoping someone ask me this one!!

I have a different font for each fandom. Comfortaa for the dsmp, Merriweather for Teen Wolf, Philosopher for Dirk Gently, and so on!
