“There’s something else,” he remembers. Looks up at Deaton, hand stilling over the rag. “Something we might be able to use against him. Gerard, I mean.” Deaton tilts his head in interest. “I think he’s dying.”

Deaton blinks. “Gerard?”

“It’s cancer,” Scott says. “I could smell it when he was threatening to kill my mom — at first I thought it was just old-person smell, but…it was definitely cancer.”

20 questions for fic writers

I've been tagged by a few people, I think @heartofspells @strugglequill @lovelymasks and finally did it

1. How many works do you have on ao3?

39

2. What's your total ao3 word count?

114,493

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Currently Harry Potter, but I have also written for A Ballad Of Songbirds and Snakes, and most of my fics are Star Wars Sequel Trilogy

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

1 - Oh, deer

2 - 31 days of huxloween

3 - Secrets and Honey

4 - In a dark alley

5 - Well past Midnight

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

In principle, though I have neglected that for a while now :/ I do love and appreciate every single comment I get and at one point I'll get back to replying to them. They've been so lovely, and I love going back just to read them

6. What is a fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Pretty sure that would be test drive. It's about the grooming of a teenager, and it does not have a happy ending. Written from the POV of the groomer too, so the tone isn't all that angsty - he succeeded and got what he wanted, which I hope makes the entire thing all the more horrifying

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

That's hard to say. I write a lot of getting together fics, which I'd say all have a pretty happy ending

8. Do you get hate on fics?

None so far, fingers crossed

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I do write smut. So far mostly with some light dom/sub stuff going on

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

I haven't so far. But I like to make them up in my mind. At some point I hope to write a wolfstar hunger games au

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I know of

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

No

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

None that made it to Ao3. I've done a lot of cooperative writing on twit-fics, and a few on tumblr with @strugglequill (padfoot-soap anyone?)

14. What's your all-time favorite ship?

Wolfstar for sure - its the fic that got me reading on Ao3 in the first place

15. What's a wip you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

I have a few, sadly. The spider and the carpenter is the first thing I ever put on Ao3 and that'll never be more than the first chapter;  Feel lucky has two chapters and I physically made up a dance routine for it, but it'll probably stay that while longer. And of course 31 days of huxloween. Thats my fic with the highest word count, and I only got through nearly half of the chapters I have planned. These are all star wars fics, and kind of the reason why I now want to have my fic finished in its entirety before I post. Which also means I get cranky bc I want to post things but won't let myself. It's not ideal

16. What are your writing strengths?

I get frequent compliments on my characterizations, so I'll go wiith that

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

I always struggle with scenes in which more than two people talk to each other. There is always one person just T-posing in the background. And I'm very insecure about the themes I introduce into my fics, and if I miss some that totally change the fic without my knowledge

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I don't do it often, but tried doing so in current wips. I do like it when it's not in dialogue style for a longer conversation but instead just the gist of it explained. It can be fun though to get a little easter egg of knowledge the POV character isn't getting when you're able to translate the dialogue and they don't speak the language

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Star Wars Prequel Trilogy

20. Favorite fic you've written?

Turns out this is impossible for me to answer

I have no idea who hasn't been tagged yet, so I'll just open it up
