questionsf or fic writers meme: 7, 17, 37, 50!

Thank you! :3

7. Any worldbuilding you’re particularly proud of?

Hmm... I feel like with the kind of fanfic I write I rarely really get to dive into worldbuilding. I'm more the person who takes 1 randomly mentioned characterization detail of canon and goes to town with it. xD

I am very proud of the Koi Tower eats people headcanon though. Never got to do anything with it yet, but I think it's fun :3

17. What highly specific AU do you want to read or write even though you might be the only person to appreciate it?

There are so many xD

So many highly specific canon divergence scenarios I want to read. Crossover AUs. Plot Derailment Aus.

(a lot of these usually involve someone dying thought....)

But also, I've been toying with a TGCF Gundam AU. I don't have any plot for it, only vibes, but I just think the characters should get to pilot giant robots and have a lot of Drama. and black water arc mecha battle in Space featuring HX stealing a mech he & SQX built together, SQX being the Worst Pilot Ever but also the only one available, and SWD going out in a epic blaze of glory.

I also had an MDZS King's Avatar AU at one point, but all that really featured was WWX getting kicked out of his pro esports team, moving across the street to Wen Qing's internet cafe, and starting over in the game with a new ridiculously overpowered character and building a new pro team with Wen Ning.

Also Pokemon AUs are common enough, but what about Pokemon Conquest AUs! If Pokemon can canonically crossover with Sengoku-era Japan featuring Koei Samurai Warriors, then I think there is potential for an R3K or a Jianghu version!

And also also, Yugioh AU. I cannot write duels to save my life, but I know enough about the game to fantasize about what kind of Yugioh decks characters would have or which clans would focus on which summoning techniques a la Arc-V xD

WWX has a graveyard focused zombie deck. or maybe he invents pendulum summoning in this verse and everyone hates him forever for it

Probably the niche-est AU I have though that very definitely no one other than me would ever read is the Warriors Orochi AU where MDZS characters get summoned to WO3 verse and interact with R3K, Sengoku era & assorted historical/mythological/video game figures. I have had some ideas for 'stages' haha xD

(or maybe a general WO3 mxtx fusion could work. I just really like WO3's plot and stage setups)

37. Promote one of your own “deep cut” fics (an underrated one, or one that never got as much traction as you think it deserves!). What do you like about it?

It's kinda hard to say what a fic deserves but I was always a little sad 'Supporting Role' didn't get a little more love (although it's certainly done better than some of my more recent fics orz). It was a fic that had always been on my mind from the first time I watched The Untamed, and especially after learning how different Meng Yao's role with the Nie was in the novel vs. CQL.

The fic was originally going to have a follow up Nie brothers chapter, but I got a bit discouraged at the initial reception and shelved the idea ^^"

50. Answer any question of your choice, or talk about anything you want to talk about!

Writing has not really been easy for me lately, but I'm slowly getting back into it... though without much success at finishing things. I have a lot of ideas, but it's been more fulfilling to talk about them with people than actually writing them. Oops?

I really want to try writing more longfics though. But also short snippets (au or otherwise) that can just stand alone without 1000s of words of buildup

One day I'll get my mojo back!!

#honestly i think i want to try writing modern aus #or modern with magic aus #or just aus with a modern or futuristic setting like the gundam au #i feel like i would have an easier time with some things if i could write a setting i know ^^'' #and do more with technology things #something something wwx is brought back in modern times and gets into cultivation app development #sorry i got a little too into the AU question xD #one other AU i didn't mention because i don't have a specific idea just vibes: Princess Tutu AU #imo it's criminal that Princess Tutu AUs aren't a standard super common AU
