Fic Writer Review!
Tagged by @kg1507, thank you!! This was surprisingly fun, considering I don't think I've posted on ao3 at all this year. Looking at my stats was really shocking, it's been a while.
1. How many works do you have on ao3?
105
2. Whats your total ao3 word count?
752,295
3. How many fandoms have you written for?
4
4. Top 5 fics by kudos?
Making Waves
The Day Kara Danvers Died
Heartbound
Course Correction
Thicker Than Water
5. Do you respond to comments? Why/why not?
I used to respond to each and every one, once upon a time, but the sheer volume of notes and real life all conspired to render me the person who doesn't respond to any. But I adore reading each of them.
6. A fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending
Ummm... there are quite a few Sanctuary fics that deal with grief and loss, but those are more sad than angsty. So Close (a Stargate SG-1 fic) is pretty angsty.
7. Do you write crossovers?
Sure do!
8. Ever received hate on a fic?
Yes, actually. I wrote a Pacific Rim/Stargate SG-1 story that didn't have any romantic content, but the protags were drift compatible, so I tagged them as a ship, and the lack of romance had people PISSED. But-- they're drift compatible?? It was everything but the smooch.
9. Do you write smut?
Sure do!
10. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Someone once notified me that there was a fic with a VERY similar first chapter to my NCIS: Apocalypse story. Like, it was very clear that they had basically taken my chapter and then rewritten it *just* enough to get past the censors or whatever. I reported it to FF.net at the time and they were like, ehhhhhh we can see what you mean, but we can't really do anything about it, because it's just different enough to be okay. So nothing was done about it. Which is fine. I'm flattered now, and recognize that they were probably just a new writer, and not actually meaning anything malicious by it.
11. Ever had a fic translated?
No. I've had a couple requests, but I'm nervous about not being able to control the output, so I've always declined.
12. Have you ever co-written a fic?
No, but I've done a couple of fics where I've collaborated with artists, which is a really fantastic process and I love it.
13. All time fav ship?
Sam/Jack from Stargate SG-1. If you want a crash course on how to do a will-they/won't-they ship, this is it. My god. I could go on for ages.
14. WIP you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?
There's a Stargate SG-1 sequel to Among the Stars that I've written pieces of that I may eventually share, but at this point it is unlikely I'll ever write it as a story. Just the scope of it is so large, as it spans the entire 10-season series, I don't think I'll ever have the time or brainpower to get it done. I'm so sorry, because it would have been awesome.
15. Writing strengths?
Ummmmm... I'm horrible at writing about my good points. Maybe characterization? I also have a knack for really capturing images I have in my head. Like... that beginning scene of The Day Kara Danvers Died-- one of my crowning moments. I still have a visceral reaction when I re-read it.
16. Writing weaknesses?
Commitment. Time. It's way too easy for me to cut corners in order to get the instant feedback of my tumblr posts.
17. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in a fic?
I don't know if I've ever tried it. Italics are a good way to indicate you're switching languages without actually switching languages. But if you actually write in actual different languages, you better get it right or else your readers who read that language are going to know.
18. First fandom you wrote for?
NCIS. Actually. That's a lie. My first was for CSI, but I never posted it anywhere because it was garbage. I was trying to right a casefic before I even knew how to write a regular story, so I was way out of my depth.
19. What’s your fav fic you’ve written so far?
Making Waves is my fave Supergirl story. Beyond the Stars is my fave Stargate SG-1 story, I think (which I've just noticed is not on ao3, oops), Something More is probably my fave NCIS story, and it's impossible for me to choose a fave Sanctuary story, I love them all. :)
Tagging @coeurdastronaute, @karalovesallthegirls, @jazzfordshire if they haven't already been asked, and anyone else who wants to join in!

@yourmajesty09​ @gkittylove99​
“Are you ready for this Brother? You know if you want to back out now, the jet is ready just in case.” 
Leo smirked at his younger brother. “ My brother, the cynic. I love her Li and I know one day you’ll find someone. You have to let what Maria did to you go.” Liam rolled his eyes. 
Two hours later they arrived at the cathedral. It was the royal wedding of the century. Leo and Madeleine were the epitome of royalty. The country couldn’t have been more proud for the reigning monarch and his new Queen. The reception followed the ceremony and the happy couple danced the night away without a care in the world. 
King Leonardo and Queen Madeline were set for their month long honeymoon while Liam handled the country. 
“Listen little brother, if you need anything ask Dad or Regina before you call us. We have a duty to produce an heir and I fully intend on making that happen.” Leo winked at Madeleine. “Liam, don’t hesitate to call.” She rolled her eyes at her husband. “The King here is getting a little ahead of himself, I think.” “Don’t worry about a thing while you're gone.” Liam kissed Madeleine on the cheek and shook Leo’s hand. “Enjoy marital bliss lovebirds, don’t worry about a thing stateside.” 
It was smooth sailing running the country while the King and Queen were away. Liam worked with Constantine to secure Cordonia’a place in the UN. He also managed to get Leo an entrance in the International Trade Exchange. After the royal couples homecoming ball Liam and Leo sat in Leo’s study with a tumbler of scotch in each of their hands. “Thanks for everything you have done, Li.” “That’s what I am here for, Your Majesty” Liam said, with a sarcastic grin. “Sometimes I hate this shit but Madeleine loves it and I love her.” Leo shrugged. “Any news on an heir yet?” Liam asked, as he sipped his drink. “No, we decided to wait a while. Adjust to our positions. What about you? You ready to get back out there?” “Where is out there? I’m good where I’m at.” Liam said, smoothly but he knew he wasn’t fooling his older brother. “Oh here Li, Maddie booked you a villa in the Maldives for a week as a thank you. Take it, blow off some steam. Maybe you’ll meet someone.” “I wish you all would get off my damn back. I’m the spare. Who cares if I’m single? Between you, Connie, Regina and Max, I can’t get a minutes of fucking peace. I’m glad you married Maddie. She’s the only on that doesn’t give a fuck. Learn something from her.” Liam snapped, “I’ll take the vacation, but only the get the fuck away from here.” “Stop being so emotional Li, we just worry about you.” 
A month later, Liam boarded the royal jet destined for South Asia. He decided to take the trip alone with no security detail. The time away from everyone he felt would give him some perspective over where his life was headed. He was the spare after all. Not much was expected of him except to show up when needed. He wasn’t needed to run a country. He couldn’t choose any job he wanted, he was still a figurehead of the Royal family. He didn’t even have a girlfriend. 
“My son, I do hope you find a woman worthy of you soon. You may not be king, but its always beneficial to the stability of the monarchy to establish heirs.” Constantine’s words played on repeat in the back of Liam’s mind. 
“Sir, sir, we’ve arrived.” Liam woke to the attendant shaking him awake. Liam departed the jet and headed to his private villa. Good taste Maddie. The Maldives was quiet this time of year. Not many tourists which Liam was excited about. He wanted time alone. His villa was the most secluded. No one would be bothering him, he hoped. The villa was a large one bedroom bungalow with a glass bottom floor. He could see straight to the bottom of the crystal clear water below. Liam got settled in and decided to stay in and relax with a glass of scotch and a book George Orwell’s 1984. 
Tap Tap Tap 
What the fuck was that? Liam sat up. He was dozing off, the sun outside was setting. He looked down. 
Who the fuck is that? 
A girl was tapping on the glass floor beneath him. She was in a light blue string bikini with scuba gear strapped to her. 
Tap Tap Tap she tapped more frantically. 
She pointed to the hatch directing him to open it. He ran over and opened it and she climbed out. She took the regulator out of her mouth and unzipped her vest. “Ugh sorry. I was following a fish and got stuck. I didn’t mean to intrude. I’m Camilla. Most call me Cami.” She stuck out her free hand for a handshake. Liam just stood in place frozen. He couldn’t move or speak. 
This is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen! What did she say her name was? Camilla? Say something you idiot!! 
“Ummm okay.. I’ll go. I’m only further down the beach. It’s okay if I use the front door?” Liam nodded his head, still unable to speak. Cami started towards the door. “Wait, I’m sorry, I’m Liam. I just didn’t expect to see someone, so beaut… coming through my floor” he ran to open the door for her. “Here I’ll carry that for you.” He reached for her oxygen tank. “No no I got it.” “It’s the least I can do for my rudeness.  Are you within walking distance or we can drive?” “Walking is fine, as long as that’s not too heavy for you?” Cami winked and pointed to her vest in his hand. Liam laughed nervously unsure of what to say. “Lead the way, Camilla.” Cami felt a tingle down her spine at the way her name fell off his full lips. “So, Liam? Right?,” he nodded his head, “what brings you to the Maldives, business or pleasure?” “Neither really, relaxation, alone time, what about you? Are you a local?” “Local?,” she laughed, “I wish, no I am here for R&R like you. Alone time? You’re on vacation alone?” “Yep, just me. That weird huh?” They made it to her bungalow. Six bungalows. Liam thought to himself. “Well this is me” Cami said as they stood at the end of the bridge that led to her front door. “Cami, where have you been?” a girl that looked strikingly like the one standing in front Liam. “Sorry that’s my sister,” Cami whispered to Liam, “I’ll be there in a minute Ans.” Ansley didn’t listen. She came striding right next to Cami. “Who is this?” Ansley asked out loud. She looked Liam up and down. “He’s cute, look at this chiseled abs Cam, mhmm..” “You’re engaged stupid. Go inside.” Cami snapped at her sister. “I’m sorry Liam, you’ll have to excuse my overzealous twin sister.” “Oh it’s fine, she likes my abs. Maybe I should be shirtless more often,” Liam winked at Ansley. “Oh my God, Cam if you don’t kiss him I will.” “Go the fuck inside, Ansley.” Cam whispered, her face turning bright red. Ansley laughed and went back inside. “Well, thanks for not letting me drown earlier, I’ll see ya around Liam.” Cami went to grab her stuff and go inside, but without thinking Liam pulled her into a soft kiss. Cami pulled away. “Umm thanks bye.” She ran inside leaving Liam standing at the end of the bridge. 
“Shut up Ansley. Do not say a fucking word.” Cami slammed the door to her room. She threw herself down on the bed. Her world felt like it was spinning. She couldn't help but think how soft and sensual the kiss was. She had never felt anything like it. 
Liam walked home alone with his thoughts. His hands dug into his pockets as flip flops kicked up the sand behind him. He headed towards the beach to clear his thoughts. He didn’t know what took over his body when he kissed Cami but whatever it was he liked it. The way she tasted, mint mixed with salt of the ocean, and slight smell of coconuts in her hair. He sat on the beach and listened to the waves. It had been nearly 5 years since Maria had broken his heart. He closed himself off after that. He decided being alone was easier than getting hurt. There was an instant connection with Cami. He couldn’t deny the electricity between them. Liam called it a night and headed back to his bungalow. He checked his phone. No new messages. He laid on the bed with a thud, flicked the light off and drifted into a deep sleep. 
Bang Bang Bang “Liammmm are youuuu in there?” Bang Bang Bang 
Liam rolled over with a groan and checked his phone. 3:17am 
Bang Bang “Open Uppp” 
“Who is it? It’s three o’clock in the morning!” Liam yelled. He climbed out of bed and stumbled to the door still groggy from sleep. “Cami?” He said, completely alert at the sight of her. “Heyyyy Liiiiaamm.” Cami slurred, “Can I come in?” “Are you drunk Cami?” She pulled a bottle of champagne she was holding behind her back and handed it to him. “Want some?” She asked, leaning against the door frame. “Sure. Come in.” He ushered her inside and to the large sofa. He grabbed a water for Cami and poured himself a glass of the champagne she brought. “Maybe have some water first.” He handed her the bottle. “So what’s bring you over?” “That kiss.. I thought we could.. try it again..?” Liam looked up. She crashed her lips onto his. She forced his lips apart and into his mouth. The electricity radiated from their bodies. Liam fisted her blonde locks with one hand and wrapped his other arm around her waist and pulled her on his lap. Liam picked Cami up as she wrapped her toned, sun kissed legs around his waist. He carried her to the bed and laid her down on her back, their kiss never breaking. Cami ran her fingers down the elastic of his boxers. “Wait Cami, we shouldn’t. You’re drunk.” Cami knew he was right. Liam rolled on his side next to her. He kissed her on the forehead and wrapped his arm around her. “I’ll be here when you wake up.” 
Mmm.. moist.. tight.. Liam woke from his dream. He still felt the sensations he was feeling while he was asleep. “Fuck Cami” he moaned. Her tongue swirled around the tip of his growing cock. She licked the beads of precum. Liam pulled the sheet off so he could watch her work his member. She looked him in the eyes as she took him all the way down her throat. Liam had never been so turned on. “Come here. It’s my turn.” Liam pulled her up and kissed her passionately as he rolled her to her back. He kissed and nipped at her already peaked nipples. He nipped her hip bones and sucked leaving his masks behind. He slid a finger through her moist folds. He brought his mouth to her bundle of nerves. Cami almost leaped off the bed at the feel of his tongue swirling her clit. He continued the lashing of her clit and pushed a finger inside. He pumped in and out curling his finger against her most sensitive spot. He could feel her let go at the pleasure of his fingers. He climbed back up hovering above her on his elbows and kissed her until her lips were swollen and bruised. He grabbed a condom out of the night stand drawer. “Let me,” Cami said seductively. She leaned forward and unrolled the condom to the base of his length. “Fuck you make not want to to wear this, I want you so much Camilla.” He lined himself up with her dripping center. He thrust deep and slow and allowed her to adjust. He groaned at how tight she felt around him. She wrapped her legs around and rolled her hips to meet his thrusts. He took a nipple in his mouth and sucked as he thrust inside her. He felt her walls start to flutter the harder he thrust inside her. “Cum for me Camilla” his words were all it took for her to come completely undone. She screamed his name as his thrusts became more frantic. He gripped her hips digging his fingers into her skin as he erupted inside her. He leaned down and kissed her deeply as pulled himself out of her. He laid next to her and pulled her into his arms. Neither one of them could find the words to say. 
“I leave in a week.” Cami finally broke the silence. “Me too” Liam whispered, “Spend the week with me.” “Okay. My sister is leaving early. Wedding emergency.” 
They spent the next week enjoying each other. They learned everything they could about each other. Liam told her about his family in Cordonia. His brother and his wife. His father's retirement. She told him about Graduate School and the pressures she was facing from her family over choosing a job. When they weren’t talking they were learning everything they could about each other’s bodies. Kisses, licks, bits, moans and screams. 
Six days later after spending the night exploring each other, Liam and Camilla laid in on the glass floor completely naked looking down at the fish below. “Stay one more week with me, Cam” Liam whispered. “I already extended my trip, but it’s just one more week and I have to go,” Liam pulled her into his arms,“Every second with you is everything, you are everything, go on a date with me?” “Okay. But our dinner options may be limited due to the isolated island.” She spoke softly. “Leave it to me my love.” Liam felt her body tense at her words. He didn’t know why he said it. Oh my God it’s been a week you idiot! He screamed in his head. 
Cami woke the next morning to find Liam’s side of the bed empty and cold. She threw on Liam’s tshirt that was on the floor from the night before and headed to the kitchen. A note was leaned against the coffee pot full of freshly brewed coffee for her. 
                                                  Hey Baby, 
                         Enjoy your coffee & meet me at the beach. 
                                                        -L 
                                     P.S.
                                    Wear something you can get wet. 
Camilla smiled and finished her coffee. She took a quick shower and brushed her teeth. She threw on an all white cheeky string bikini and a pair of Ray Bans and headed down to the beach. As she got closer to the beach she saw a large white tent set up with the the corners tied open. Liam was sitting on a thick blanket with pillows surrounding him and a glass of champagne in his hand. 
“Liam?” Camilla whispered. Liam jumped up at the sound of her voice. Her voice was a siren song in his ears. “Hey Baby,” Liam leaned down and kissed Cami on the cheek, “join me?” They drank, ate, and laughed together. Cami felt herself falling. I love you, damn those three words, you leave in two days Cami. Get yourself together. “Liam, we need to talk.” She lowered her head avoiding eye contact. She knew if she looked in his eyes she would get lost, better yet she would drown in those deep pools of mysterious blue. “I leave in two days. I go back to reality on different ends of the Earth.” “I know Cam, we can try can’t we? I can visit New York, you can come to Cordonia.” “No Liam, it’ll never work. We both have obligations.” Liam lifted her head to meet her eyes. “Give me today tonight.” Liam kissed her so deeply it left her dizzy. They spent the rest of the night into the early morning making up for time they didn’t they had lost. 
The day came for them to leave their tropical paradise and their love for the moment. Neither had spoken a word to each other. Neither finding the words. Cami sat on the bad after packing her suitcase. Her flight boarded in an hour. Liam’s flight didn’t leave until later that night. “Cami, can we stay in touch?” Liam sat next to Cami and laced his fingers through hers. “I don’t know if it’s a good idea. I just.. It’s time for me to go..” Cami stood up. Liam stood up and wrapped his arms around her. “I’m not saying good-bye Liam,” she whispered as tears welled up in her eyes. “Then don’t say anything at all,” Liam wiped the tears away as they fell down her cheeks, “I”ll drive you the airport.” Liam lifted her into his arms and carried her to his black Range Rover parked in the parking lot near the villa entrance. Cami stared out the passenger window without saying a word. Liam held her hand in his lap tightly as he drove. He dreaded having to watch her board the plane not knowing whether he would ever see her again. 
They pulled up to the tarmac and Liam jumped out and ran around the car to open the passenger door for Cami. Cami leaned forward and buried her head in her hands as the sobs took over. “Why is this so hard after only two weeks, Liam?” Liam pulled her hands from her face. “I don’t know. We will see each other again. I can feel it, my love.” She got out of the car and he wrapped her in one last kiss. A kiss filled with love and sadness. A kiss that made their world stop turning and everything around them melted away. Liam pulled away and kissed her forehead, her cheeks, and her nose like he was memorizing every inch of her features. “My love,” Cami interrupted Liam, “Don’t say it. Will you text me?” “Every day.” Liam watched as Cami boarded the plane. She waved before the plane doors shut. He watched as her plane took off and disappeared above the clouds. A familiar feeling he hadn’t felt in two weeks, what was almost a distant memory flooded him. Loneliness. She already felt like a figment of his imagination. Liam drove back to his bungalow to pack. He passed by Cami’s bungalow. An emptiness he didn’t recognize creeped into his heart. He walked into his bungalow and pulled out his phone. He needed someone to talk to. Someone to tell him what to do. 
                     “Drake.. Ya it’s Li. Ya sorry I took off for two weeks                                     without telling you.. Everything’s fine. I’ll be home tomorrow. So I’m                                             calling because I met a girl..” 
Liam told Drake everything about Cami. How they met and her sister. How they had an instant unexplainable connection. How he thought he was in love. How he thought she was the one. The One. 
“Listen Li, Go after her. Don’t be a fucking idiot. I’ll be on the next flight to New York, ugh apparently Max too. Do you know where she lives?” Drake asked. 
“I don’t even know her last name. She has a twin sister named Ansley and she’s graduating from Columbia Law next week. And she’s from Manhattan, New York. That’s kinda all I got. I have her number but I am sure she doesn’t want me chasing her down...” 
“I’ll get Bas on it. I’m sure he has plenty of time since Maddie locked Leo down,” Drake laughed, “we’ll find her.”

The Green Book (Thorin’s Company x Reader, Part 3)
Hey gang! Wow, it has been a long time. I actually had the draft on my desk top for a really long time and just never got around to post it, because my life has been really crazy, but she’s back! I’ve already started the draft for the fourth chapter, so ready yourselves! Thanks so much for your patience : ). 
Summary: (Y/n) falls into Middle Earth. Shocker. Somehow, she gets recruited to join a party of dwarves on their kinda crazy mission to reclaim their home of Erebor.
Part: 1, 2, 3
Tags (let me know if you want to be added to the list!): @stuckupstucky, @dianaarelyfernandezgarza97, @alexloveskili
Words: 2188
Warnings: None I think...? I mean (y/n) is kinda a pussy in this chapter and Thorin is... himself so just be aware of that
Finally gaining my footing, I drew myself to my feet and regained my surroundings in the middle of the hazy afternoon. 
I used the reflection on the phone to observe myself. My (h/c) hair was an absolute tangled mess, with leaves, small twigs, and even a few pebbles here and there. I mussed it with my hand before lightly parting it, like I would do every morning. Of course, I still looked terrible, but something about fixing hair always makes people feel better.
I looked at my chin, where a massive bruise had planted itself, no doubt from the rather aggressive pushing and shoving from the trolls. Additionally, my legs and arms had been littered with small cuts and bruises that had just now begun to sting and make themselves noticed. Great. 
The next order of business was to find the Company. Admittedly, I was highly uncomfortable with the idea of meddling in a familiar tale. I touched on it earlier, but, reader, the tales of Thorin Oakenshield, Bilbo Baggins, Gandalf the Gray, and all of their adventures in reclaiming Erebor were, in fact, very common tales from where I come from. So common that they are read aloud to children every night. However, no one actually believed them to be true, for dwarves, hobbits, and wizards, along with every race except human, do not exist in the world where I come from. 
I would expand on this further, but I imagine that whoever reading this has many of the same questions as my dwarf companions will ask later in these many tales, so do be patient. 
While we are taught as children that it is bad practice to mess around with things that are already set in stone, we are also taught that cops are good and that “because” is a valid reason for anything, so I ignored that advice. 
They may be my only chance to ever see civilization again. 
Catching up with them was very easy, as, while they are quite business oriented, they travel very slowly. They had spent a long time searching in the caves of the trolls that had been killed earlier, and even longer packing and preparing for the journey ahead. Dwarves are tough, that’s for sure, but they are also very methodical, and do not like to be interrupted when they have already begun something. 
Like a stalker (which I guess I technically was), I peaked out at their company from behind a tree, wondering when exactly my entrance should be made. They were apparently wondering something similar. 
“I say we should look for ‘er.” Fili posited.
“I second the lad.” Dwalin piped up. Oh dear, that dwarf was so intimidating up close. Even though I was noticeably taller than him, he could take me out with a single swing of his axe, no questions axed asked. 
“If she wanted our help, she would’ve come back and gotten it by now.” Nori remarked, to which Thorin sternly nodded. He was right. I did need their help, and I was back to get it. Gold digger life. (A/N I’m so sorry for removing the immersion, I would just like to apologize for all of the Gen Z shitposting in this. Feel free to tell me to knock it off.) 
Gandalf and Bilbo were there. It was a moment I recognized, when Gandalf introduced Bilbo to his now famous blade, Sting. I realized in that moment that literally any point in which I decided to emerge would be interrupting something. I quickly swallowed my pride and decided to reveal myself. 
“Uh, hi! I’m back.” I had absolutely no idea what to say. They all turned to face me, though at this point I was used to being gawked at. I’d be lying if I said that it didn’t make me feel a little bit dizzy, though. 
I waved awkwardly, supporting my red canvas backpack over my shoulder. No one was saying anything. 
Gandalf lifted his every curious head up and eagle-eyed me from across the clearing. 
“Miss (Y/n)! So you have decided to join us.” It felt supremely unnatural to have him say my name. He crossed the way to approach me, leaving a rather disconcerted hobbit in the dust. 
“Uh… yeah. I guess I have.” 
“Wonderful! However, I’m afraid that I only offer my acquaintanceship to ladies whom I know more than their name. After all, it is only fair, since I’m sure you know mine?” No one bothered to interrupt the wizard, who, if I wasn’t mistaken, was doing the same thing to me that he did when he first met Bilbo outside of his hobbit hole. 
“Ummm, yeah, you’re Gandalf the Gray. And I guess, uh,” I breathed in deeply, realizing that, whether I tell the truth or lie, I’m going to sound extremely pathetic, “I’m (f/n) (l/n), but you can just call me (f/n). Uh, I’m human, I guess, and um, I don’t really know where I am right now. I’m kinda lost, I guess.”  
“Where do you hail from?” Damnit, damnit, I had no idea how to answer this.
“Ummm… really not from here. Like, so far that you probably haven’t heard of it.” His expression deepened a little bit. He was not playing as much as he pretended to. A somewhat scary reminder of the actual investment in the protection of his friends that it was easy to forget that he had.
“Try me.” 
“(Hometown name).” I answered back, with a fair amount of fake confidence. He furrowed his brow and pondered slightly, while everyone else remained completely puzzled. Of course, they had never heard of my hometown either, but the were far less travelled then Gandalf, and simply resolved to not seem outwardly ignorant. 
“You’re right, I suppose. I never have been there,” he paused, and no one surrounding him, myself included, was exactly sure what that pause meant, “But, how does one from the mysterious land of (hometown name) get so far from it?” 
“I’m not sure. I truly have no idea how I got to this place. One day it was life like any other, and the next thing I know I had woken up about to be eaten by a troll. I swear, I don’t know.” I added that last part, because I was serious, even if it sounded like I was completely making it up as I went a long, and doing a very poor job at that. 
“No need for swearing, I believe you.” 
“Well, I do not.” Thorin Oakenshield entered the ring.
“She wasn’t talking to you, dear Thorin.” Gandalf may appear spacy at times, but his sharp wit never left his side. 
“No, that is true, though perhaps she should’ve been, considering that I am the leader of this company.” I found it strange that, though he was arguing about me, Thorin had not yet dared to look me in the eye. 
“A leader who was too afraid to approach a frightened young girl alone in the forest?” My face twisted into a bit of a displeased expression. I thought I had hidden my fright well enough, and I was practically an adult. 
“She appeared far from frightened. While you were not there to see it, she was the one who confronted the troll head on, even when he was threatening her. And that thing that she can do with her eyes! I do not believe that she is as innocent as she appears.”
“Perhaps then, dear Thorin, all the more reason to have her accompany us for some time being. Perhaps,” he turned to me briefly before returning to the conversation, “we shall discover some more hidden skills that may be of surprising use.” 
I’d never felt so painfully passive in my entire life, just watching two people argue about what was to happen to me while pretending like I wasn’t even there. Did I even want to accompany them? To this point, I just wanted to go with them to Elrond’s house and then see if there is any aid there. Of course, it helped that Elrond’s house is basically an all-expenses-paid vacation, and particularly accommodating to lost souls. 
It became frighteningly clear that whatever separate visions they had of what was to become of me in their mind, neither of them were what I wanted.
“Are ye hungry, lass?” A finger poked my side. It was Bofur, a slightly more comforting sight. Though the two continued their bickering in the background, I diverted myself from the conversation slightly to face him.  
“Um, no, I think I’m okay, I-“ my stomach growled. 
Bofur smiled understandingly. 
“Well, we got lots o’ food if y’ever change your mind.” 
“Mahal, where did you get that?!” Kili yelled from the side. It appeared that I was now up for grabs by anyone who wanted to talk to me, as Thorin and Gandalf walked off. 
“What?” 
“That!” Kili pointed a finger at my chin, which I stroked thoughtfully, realizing that he was taking note of my large, now splotchy bruise that almost appeared to be a poorly shaved five o’clock shadow. 
“Oh, this? It was from the troll, I think. It wasn’t there before.” I rubbed my chin thoughtfully again before giving him something of a lopsided smile. He appeared quite amused at the concept of large bruises. 
“Lad, it’s considered polite to introduce yerself before askin’ a lass about ‘er wounds.” Balin remarked from the side, winking at me thoughtfully.
“Ah, yeah. Apologies. I’m Kili, at your service, miss!” He playfully bowed. I didn’t have the heart to tell them that I already knew all of their names, so I just passively watched as the introduction ritual took place, feigning mental notes as though it would be a struggle for me to recall them later. 
I “met” Fili next, as he always tried to one up Kili with the showmanship, then Bofur, who introduced his family, Bifur and Bombur. Dwalin and Balin respectfully bowed, which felt way more gratifying than it should. Dori, Nori, and Ori introduced themselves together, followed by Oin and Gloin. Finally, the smallest member, Bilbo, appeared to have the most practiced bow, and politely introduced himself. I nodded. 
“(F/n) (l/n) at yours.” I recalled the response to the standard greeting from the book, while doing a mock curtsey. I was still wearing jeans. 
“I have to admit, it’s been a while since we’ve seen a lass, or anyone for that matter, in these woods.” Balin chatted curiously. 
“I can only guess as to why.” The sarcasm was the first thing that I had felt natural saying in a while. 
“Perhaps the giant trolls?” Ah, yes. Sarcasm was something that the dwarves were not yet used to. I nodded at let it pass. 
The group held their breath and Gandalf and Thorin returned, a tacit agreement among them to let Thorin do the talking. He stepped forward.
“Very well, (y/n) of (hometown name). You will be permitted to travel with our Company until you may be returned to some area of safety, though I must warn you against doing anything that may inhibit our quest.” 
I nodded, silently agreeing to the terms that had been placed before me. He grunted, and returned to packing for the journey ahead. 
“You must tell me more about this (hometown name) when you get the chance, Miss (y/n).” Gandalf added. 
“I’d be glad to.” I smiled, lying through my teeth. Part of me wanted to begin planning for when I would eventually have to lie about where I came from, but the other part of me simply had no idea what to anticipate. 
I recalled my red canvas backpack, knowing that it was filled with things so far from this time that it would be disastrous if they got in the hands of any of my travelling companions, even someone as wise as Gandalf. I recalled my familiarity with their tales, knowing that, no matter how honest I was, I could not reveal to them that I knew the end. I recalled the death of Thorin, Fili, and Kili, the abuse of Bilbo, the psychological torture of Thranduil, and everything unfortunate in between. 
Perhaps I was better off dying in the forest alone. 
“Miss (y/n), you may walk with me if you like? We are both quite out of place in this company.” Bilbo cautiously approached me, his small voice easier to focus on as the rest of the Company began to leave me alone to pack for the time being.
“I would be honored, though I’m afraid I am not a terribly experienced traveler.”  
“Then we shall make fine company, Miss (y/n).” 
“Oh, you can just call me (y/n), no ‘Miss’ needed.” 
He appeared somewhat startled, and on the verge of insulted. 
“Oh, no, no, it’s just that the ‘Miss’ isn’t very common where I come from. I didn’t mean anything by it.” I hastily added, trying to fix whatever mess I had started. 
“You really do come from far, don’t you?” Now he seemed to be observing me. I nodded. 
“Yes. It’s going to be a long way back.”
***********
So we finally start the shenanigans, though I must warn you that this is only getting started. As always, feel free to shoot me ideas as to what (y/n) has, or perhaps even a pairing. I’m considering also making this one a choose-your-own-adventure in terms of pairings, but that would take a lot more work, so if y’all have a specific one let me know and I can just write that!

Got7 Imagine: You Are Their Neighbor
Tumblr media
Mark:
You were lucky that you and your neighbor had the same habits. The sounds of gunfire and grenades would often echo back and forth between the apartment walls, the occasional profanity would make it through as well. Any other neighbors and you were sure the cops would have been called by now. 
Even with all of the noise exchange, you had never met the guy next door. You assumed he was a guy. You heard yelling that usually sounded like a man, but it could be a husky woman, you weren't sure. 
One night when you were settling in for a night of some multiplayer madness, you realized that a trip to the store for beer and snacks were necessary. You walked to the closest convenience store and other than one other very handsome guy in the back looking at energy drinks, you were the only customer there. You both checked out one right after the other and you noticed that he turned down the same streets as you to get home. You were walking behind him trying not to look like a creep following a guy home. 
He turned into your building and you were surprised that you had just encountered someone from your building. 
You rushed to the only working elevator and the guy was standing in the back corner of the elevator. 
“What floor?” he asked as he leaned towards the keypad.
“Twelve,” You said as you looked at the keypad. “Oh, looks like we are on the same floor.” 
He nodded and went back to fidgeting with his hoodie sleeves.
You both got off and turned left. You knew almost everyone in you hall. Could it be he was the mysterious neighbor. 
“You live in 1204?” You asked him, shocking him.
“How do you know where I live?” He stopped dead in his tracks. “I swear I have nothing of value for you to steal and if I ghosted you I’m sorry and please don’t kill me.” 
You laughed as you walked passed him to apartment 1206, your apartment.
“I live next door,” you laughed as you unlocked the door, “see?” you shook the keys. 
“You play Overwatch?” he asks, skeptical. “Oh wait, it must be your boyfriend.” He reaches for his door knob.
“I live alone.” 
“You play as Reaper.” He said calmly as he tilted his head to the side, “I prefer Mei.” 
“You can tell that from the sounds through the walls?” You asked, shocked at his knowledge of the game.
“I don’t really do much other than play overwatch and go to work.” He said calmly. “I’m Mark Tuan by the way.”
“I’m Y/N.” You were amazed that such a beautiful human was a recluse gamer. 
“Wait, Mark Tuan...like MarkYienTuan93?”
“That’s creepy.” he said looking at you shocked again, “How do you know my gamer tag?”
“I’ve played with you. Well, against you. You always beat me for the top rank. Every. Time.”
“Wait, you’re killerY/F/N69?” He looked shocked. 
“That’s me.” You smiled.
“Add me.” he said with a smile, “I think we could kick some serious ass when we aren’t trying kill each other.” 
And with that he walked into his apartment. 
Tumblr media
JB:
You adored your neighbor, JB, you just hated his cats. Nora was sweet, but the other 4 needed new homes. They meowed all night and hissed any time you got close to their Daddy. It isn’t your fault he wants you to call him Daddy too.
You met him when your cat jumped over the fence and somehow ended up at his place. Spots was there for over a week before JB realized he had an extra cat and that the cat was the one on all of the missing posters around the neighborhood.
After he returned Spots, you two clicked. You never went on dates, it was purely a physical thing. 
It started when you left a window open while you were watching porn. He saw it from his living room window and made his way over to your place to interrupt and ask if you wanted some real life help getting off instead of just using toys and your hand with some porn. He made sure to point out that he could do what was being done in the video as well.
You were offended at first...and embarrassed...but you agreed to give it a try. 
Ever since then, it’s been a normal thing.
You would occasionally see him watching porn and would venture over to his place and he would sometimes just come over to see if you wanted to “Netflix and chill.” 
There had been some odd interruptions by both of your furry children, but for the most part things just worked out well. 
Being his neighbor was definitely good thing.
Tumblr media
Jackson:
Living next to an athlete was a perk. You could chill by the apartment complex pool and watch your neighbor run and lift weights. He ended every workout with a long swim and a relaxing soak in the hot tub, so everything was on display and you loved it.
You knew from hearing his workout buddies that his name was Jackson. He spoke a ton of languages and lived across the hall from you. You didn’t think he knew that though.
He would walk by you while you were chilling in the pool area and smile and wink, but he never came over and introduced himself at the pool or in the hall. 
Even if you ogling him was the extent of your relationship with him, you were okay with that. Seeing his sweaty and wet body all the time was more than enough. 
Unfortunately, your mouth decided one day to ruin that.
Jackson walked by, like usual, and smiled. You opened your mouth to smile back and instead of a smile, you accidentally said “Damn those thighs.”
You hoped it was quiet enough that he didn’t notice, but the pool was abandoned and the echo was real.
“It was leg day,” he said with a smile, “They always look this toned on leg day. By tomorrow they will be normal thighs again.”
“There is nothing normal about those thighs.” Your mouth spoke before your brain could stop it. “I mean-” you freaked out and sat up, “They are very nice thighs. There isn’t anything wrong with them. I-”
“I’m Jackson.” He wiped his hand on a towel and reached out to shake yours, he knew exactly when to cut you off. Bless him.
“I’m Y/N.” You smiled nervously and shook his hand.
“Oh, I know.” He said with a smirk before putting his goggles on and diving into the pool.
“YOU KNOW?” You asked, louder than you should have while he began swimming his laps, a small smirk lingering on his lips.
Tumblr media
Jinyoung:
You had the best neighbor. You just didn’t know his name. He brought over cookies for the holidays, ran the neighborhood watch, he read a lot, was quiet all the time, and he kept a crazy clean apartment. 
You had had dinner at his place multiple times as friends, but you never remember him telling you his name. He used your name all the time and you were forced to never say his. You wanted to ask, so badly, but it had been 3 years. It was way too late now. 
Tonight your neighbor knocked on your door and asked if you had dinner plans. This was normal enough and your answer of ‘well I bought some ramen on the way home,’ was apparently not an acceptable answer.
He brought you over to his place and had a whole dinner set up for two. There was wine and a candle already on the table and the mood was not what you expected.
"Have a seat." He said as he grabbed the food and set it down in front of you. 
“Did your date stand you up?” You asked as you looked at him intensely, waiting for him to take the first bite.
“Nope.” he said as he mixed his salad. “I figured you hadn’t had dinner so I whipped something up.”
“This is too romantic for a neighborly dinner.”
“So what if it is? What if I want things to be romantic with you, Y/N?”
You picked a terrible time to take a sip of wine. You barely held it in, but the alcohol still burned your nose and caused you to choke.
“You want what now?” You asked as you regained your composure.
“Date me.” He said as he leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs, a long sip of wine following in a fluid action. 
His suave actions threw you off. 
“You want to date me?” You asked, still dumbfounded.
“Did I stutter, Y/N?” He asked, taking another sip of wine.
“No. You were very clear.” You said as you downed your wine in one long gulp.
Your neighbor got up and got almost uncomfortably close to you when he refilled it.
“So?” he asked, the heat of his breath grazing your face.
“Yes.” You said, lost in his eyes.
“Yes, what?”
“Yes, I’ll date you.”
“Yes, You’ll date me....” He was looking for something else and you couldn’t figure out what it was.
“Say my name.” He whispered into your ear. “I can’t remember you ever saying my name and I want to hear you say it.”
“I-” you started as he pulled back to look at you.
“You-?” he said, clearly teasing you at this point.
“I need to-” You were going to excuse yourself and pretend this never happened.
“I was right.” he said quietly to himself before a smile overtook his face and he began to laugh. “You don’t know my name.” 
You froze. How could you admit you just agreed to date someone whose name you didn’t even know.
“Let me introduce myself, since I know for a fact that I never have before.” He said before taking your hand and kissing it. “I’m your boyfriend, Park Jinyoung.”
Tumblr media
Youngjae: 
Oh the nosies you were hearing. You couldn’t figure out what your neighbor was doing, but boy did it sound x-rated. The moaning, the breathlessness, the guttural sounds. They all sounded like you wanted them beneath you. You didn’t know why he was so loud all day, but you knew you had to meet him. 
You decided to head over to his place with a plate of welcome to the neighborhood cookies and tea. The noises weren’t there for once, so you assumed that whatever he was doing, he would be appropriate and able to accept a visitor.
The man opened the door with a loud laugh as his dog was doing something on the ground near his feet.
“Hi, I live next door, I wanted to welcome you to the neighborhood.”
“Ummm... I’ve lived here for 2 years...” He said as he eyed you warily. 
“Yeah... I’m a little late, aren’t I?” you laughed nervously as you held out the tray of sweets.
“Well, I guess I can’t say no to a free plate of cookies.” He said as he gently took the plate, “come on in.”
“So what do you do?” you asked as you walked into his place. It was very simple, nothing nearly as lewd as you thought you would find.
“I’m a singer.” He said calmly, “I thought you would have known that with how often I’m singing in the apartment. I can hear your nightly routine of watching Rick and Morty, so I thought you could definitely hear my singing.”
“That’s what those noises are?” you asked, shocked that his voice through the walls sounded so sexual.
“What did you think they were?” he asked, his face and ears turning red.
“I-” you paused, not wanting to make this more awkward than it already was. “You should try a cookie.” You gestured to the plate, trying to deflect from the awkwardness of the situation.
“Ah. I will later. I have to practice some more.” He said as he went over to the music stand. “You’re welcome to stay if you’d like.”
You decided why not? You had only ever heard him through the walls. His voice was angelic. You wanted to listen to him all the time. With any luck, he’ll let you.
Tumblr media
Bam Bam: 
The boy across the hall was an enigma. You had gotten a few glances of him, always well dressed, always laughing. His friends came over a lot and they would listen to music and have mellow parties. One day, he caught you looking at him while he was walking down the apartment complex hall.
“Hi.” he said as he took off his sunglasses and smiled. 
“Um. Hi.” you said, looking away, trying to not make it obvious you were staring. 
“I’m Bam Bam, who are you?”
“I’m Y/N” you said, extending your hand for a shake. “It’s nice to meet you.”
“It’s nice to meet the girl next door.” He said as he smirked. “I’d love to get to know you better.”
“What?” You asked, thrown off.
“I’ve seen you glance at me and my friends. Want to come over to a party later? It’s really chill. We just drink and listen to music.” 
“Umm.. Sure.” you said, nervous. He was so much better looking up close.
“Great, come by around 9? By the way, I have a few cats. Be prepared.”
Tumblr media
Yugyeom:
The stomping was happening again. You had already filed so many complaints with the building and no matter what it won’t stop. Your upstairs neighbor was just so loud. 
“FINE! TWO CAN PLAY AT THAT GAME!!!” You yelled at the ceiling as you got up and blasted the loudest classical opera music you could find. 
You hadn’t even met your neighbor yet and you were already fighting. 
Less than 10 minutes of the music and there was a knock on the door. 
“Can you turn the music down please?” A male voice yelled as the pounding on the door continued. 
“The door’s open!” You yelled, not leaving your couch. He was going to have to work for this after the last two weeks of hell since he moved in.
“TURN IT DOWN PLEASE!!!!” he yelled, just feet away from you, but you could still barely hear him.
You were going to answer, but standing in front of you was a very attractive, very sweaty, very tattooed, shirtless man. 
He reached around you and grabbed your remote, shutting the opera down. 
“How do you have eardrums?” He asked, putting the remote down on the table. 
“I’m sorry, was it bothering you?” You asked, his gentle scent of axe body spray and sweat bothering you in the best way. 
“I was trying to practice for my dance competition and your music was throwing me off.” He was breathing heavily, standing above you now. God how you wanted to see him breathing heavily above you in another position. 
“Your dancing echoes through my apartment and throws me off every night.” You said, standing up to try to look him in the eye. Damn he was tall.
“I-” he paused for a moment before his eyes went from angry to gentle. “I didn’t know. I knew someone was complaining about me, but I didn’t know you could hear me. I thought it was something else.”
“It was me.” you said grumpily, “don’t you have a studio you can practice at?”
“It closes at 6.” he pouted, “I need longer to perfect my moves.”
“Can you try to perfect them in a quieter way?” you asked, taking a step back from him.
“What if I can make it up to you somehow?”
“How?” you asked, puzzled.
“Make you so tired that you can sleep through my dancing no problem.”
“And how would you do that?” You asked as he stepped closer, leaning in towards your ear.
“Come by tomorrow at 7pm and I’ll not only tire you out, I’ll show you what I thought was actually causing the noise complaints.”
His lips brushed your ear as he turned to leave.
“I don’t even know your name.” You said as you followed him, admiring his back.
“Yugyeom.” he whispered as he closed the door behind him.

Day 1: First Date
Combined two prompts from two anons for day one on 14 Days of Destiel Valentine’s!!  - "For the Valentines' prompts... First date?" && " This high class restaurant I’ve always wanted to eat at is doing a Valentines day dinner special that’s like half the price of a normal meal there and my ass is broke so will you pretend to be my date and come out to eat with me?" 
Read Below or on AO3: HERE
“So,” Dean begins as he leans on the checkout counter to look at Castiel. “Any Valentine’s Day plans this weekend?”
 As usual when his most frequent customer talks to him, Castiel ducks his head to hide his blush and tries his best not to sound flustered. “Ummm, no. Nothing special planned.”
 “Any regular plans?”
 “Nope.” Castiel laughs awkwardly, his hands shaking as he rings up Dean’s coffee and donut. It’s the same every night. 3 a.m., Dean in his police uniform, wrapping up another patrol shift, stopping at the gas station by his house – the one Castiel happens to work at – buying coffee and donuts. Castiel teases him relentlessly about the whole ‘cop with a coffee and donut’ cliché. It never fails to make Dean smile.
 Castiel really likes making Dean smile.  
 It’s been two years of Castiel working this shift and Dean working his, the two of them seeing each other at least three or four times a week. At first it was Castiel fumbling and stuttering as he tried to ring up the officer with the gorgeous smile and witty remarks, but thankfully Dean’s insistence on small talk has loosened Castiel up. 
 A bit. 
 As loose as you can be when you’re head over heels in love with a man ten times out of your league that likes to flirt with anyone that moves. 
 “Do you have any plans?” Castiel asks politely as he waits for Dean to fish out his money. 
 “I don’t.” Dean leans further over the counter and Castiel finally looks up at him. He realizes that Dean isn’t trying to get his money. In fact, he doesn’t seem at all concerned about his coffee and donut at the moment. His eyes are locked on Castiel. “You don’t work?”
 “Surprisingly I do not.”
 “Great. Neither do I.” Dean grins. “Listen, this is gonna sound crazy but I promise I’m not trying to be a creep and come onto you, okay?”
 Castiel laughs nervously, his heart in his throat. “O-okay.”
 “This high class restaurant I’ve always wanted to eat at is doing a Valentine’s Day dinner special that’s like half the price of a normal meal there and my ass is broke so will you pretend to be my date and come out to eat with me?” It all comes out in a rush and for the first time, Dean is the one blushing instead of Castiel. 
 Well, that’s not entirely accurate. Castiel is still blushing, but Dean is at least joining him now. 
 “H-how expensive are we talking?” Castiel asks, doing a mental calculation of his current bank account balance. 
 “Don’t worry about it. I’ll cover your half. I just can’t go alone. They’re only letting couples go.” Dean beams at him as if Castiel already agreed. “So, will you come with me?”
 Castiel doesn’t even have to consider it.
 “Yes.”
---- 
 Dean has never seen Castiel outside of his gas station attendant uniform. Don't get Dean wrong, the little blue vest and name tag are adorable, but Castiel cleans up well. He's gorgeous, standing outside the restaurant in dark jeans and a button up with the top two buttons undone. The blue of his shirt makes the blue of his eyes pop even though it's dark outside. 
 He's breathtaking.
 Dean has officially been launched from yeah that college kid is cute and I have a major crush on him to fuck, I might be in love with him...
 "Hey," Castiel says softly, looking slightly uncomfortable. Dean can't exactly blame him. He's been staring at the kid like an idiot. 
 Dean clears his throat and pastes on a smile. "Hey. You look great." 
 "Thanks. You too." Castiel tugs at his collar. "I, um… I don't own a tie. Do you think this'll be okay?" 
 "It'll be perfect. You ready?" 
 When Castiel nods, Dean takes his hand and starts to lead him into the restaurant. He's only holding Castiel's hand because of the whole couple ruse, of course.  
 At least, that’s his excuse if Castiel questions it.
 The host seats them at a small table in the back corner of the restaurant. The scene screams romance. From the twinkle lights strung along the ceiling and the live piano music to the rose petal covered table and the bouquet of flowers in a vase as the centerpiece. Once they've taken their seats and have been handed the special Valentine’s Day menu, the host leaves. 
 Castiel's first words are, "This place is gorgeous."
 Dean swallows the flirty, "You're gorgeous," and just agrees with Castiel instead. 
 "So why this place?” Castiel asks. “I mean, yeah it's nice and the food is probably amazing, but why'd you want to come here so bad?"
 "It's new. Small town like ours, you don't get that much. Especially like this. All we end up with are crappy diners or chain restaurants, but this chef used to work at a 4-star restaurant which is amazing. I've been wanting to eat here since it opened last summer." 
 Castiel leans forward and it's clear he's not faking interest. The fact makes Dean's stomach flip. "You must really like food then, hey?"
 "Absolutely. It was actually my dream to be a chef, but it doesn't pay the bills, at least not starting out." 
 "I get that. I can barely afford to live and go to school full-time, even with my financial aid. Hence the shitty gas station job."
 Dean straightens in concern. "You're going to school full-time? I figured you were only half or online or something."
 "Nope. I go to school during the day. It's not so bad this semester, actually. Last semester I had a practicum, so I had to do all my coursework for my classes but then on top of that do 15 hours in a classroom every week. It was brutal." Castiel laughs to himself. "I survived on coffee and hatred.' 
 "Coulda fooled me. You're always so happy."
 "You're the bright spot in it all." Castiel's smile falls. Panic makes his breath hitch in his chest, the shudder visible from where Dean is sitting. "I-"
 "So, you're an education major then?" Dean asks, saving Castiel from the embarrassment. Or maybe just saving himself from sharing his own embarrassing confession that Castiel is his bright spot too. 
 Castiel bounces back quickly, relief relaxing his shoulders and allowing his smile to return. "Yeah, elementary ed. I'd love to work with 2nd grade but anything under 4th will be fine. Once kids hit 4th grade they turn into little assholes." 
 This catches Dean by surprise, pulling a laugh from him. Castiel was always so shy and soft spoken at the gas station. Now that he's opening up, his personality is really getting a chance to shine. 
 Dean is on a very slippery slope here. 
 It only gets slipperier when Castiel says with enthusiasm, "You know, you should really try out for one of those shows. Like MasterChef! I'm sure you could get some sort of leave of absence from work. There's no way all of those people just quit their jobs, you know?"
 "I've actually thought about that…" Dean darts his eyes away, feeling the same as always when his dreams come up. "Michael told me not to waste the money flying out for the whole interview process or whatever, though. Said I'm housewife good, not actually good."
 "Umm, who the fuck is Michael?"
 Dean looks back at Castiel before answering. He startles when he sees the rage on the young man's face. "My ex."
 "Well fuck him. Seriously? It's not up to him. It's up to Gordon Ramsay - or whoever else tests your food. I don't know how the process works exactly but it's not up to him. And he sounds like an asshole anyway. If it's your dream then you need to do it, Dean! Isn't the chance worth it?" Castiel shakes his head in amazement before laughing once under his breath. "And I bet you're really fucking good, too. He sounds like an asshole that didn't deserve you. You should go on that show and kick some ass and then do a little shout out video with a huge I told you so." 
 Dean needs to blink a few times as he tries to process the mini-rant Castiel just spewed at him. As the words sink in, his lips spread into a wide smile that borders on painful. "You've never even tasted my food. How the hell are you so passionate about this?" 
 "Because I care about you." Castiel's eyes soften for half a second, something deeper passing between them. Then they light back up with humor. "And if I can't make an informed decision without eating your food, I guess you'll just have to cook for me some time." 
 "Yes. I suppose I will. But then you'll owe me a meal." 
 "Oooh, no. No, no, no. Trust me. You don't want that."
 Dean chuckles. "Can't cook?"
 "I held my own for a while. I made a mean hot pocket. And toast. I'm like an expert at getting the toast just the right amount of crunchy where it's not too soft and it's not burnt either." He makes a chef’s kiss with his fingers, the sound loud in the air between them. "Then, sadly, my toaster became out of commission. So, it's mostly just cereal and pb&js for me. Unless my microwave decides to work, which is extremely rare." 
 "What happened to your toaster?"
 Castiel looks up at him with both amusement and shame. "I may have gotten a piece of frozen waffle stuck in there and I can't figure out how to get it out, so every time I start to cook something it sets on fire…"
 "On fire?" Dean's eyebrows shoot up as he laughs. "Jesus. Yeah, okay. I'll be the one cooking then." 
 "Perfect." Castiel picks up his menu and waves it. "We should probably actually figure out what we're going to order hey?"
 Dean's immediate instinct is to say no. To ask Castiel if they can just spend the night talking. Who cares about the food?
 It's a terrifying thought.
 It's also exhilarating. 
 "I can get a bottle of wine for us to share," Dean offers. "Would you like red or white?"
 The blush that warms Castiel's face is so familiar, setting Dean at ease. "I'm actually not of age. Only 20."
 "Oh." Dean puts the wine menu down and laughs. "Well, then. Never mind."
 "You can get some though! It won't bother me."
 "I actually hate wine to be honest. Much more of a beer guy."
 "Yeah, I can handle maybe two wine coolers before I'm a mess anyway. Total lightweight." Castiel's chin snaps up and his eyes bulge. "Shit! I mean - not that I'd ever drink, because like that's illegal - and I'd - well-"
 Dean bursts out laughing. "Calm down, Cas. You think I never drank underage? Long as I'm not in uniform we don't have a problem." 
 "Okay. Good." Castiel takes a drink of his water, his hand shaking. It nearly spills when he tries to put the glass back down. "If it makes you feel any better, that's pretty much the sum of all illegal activity in my life. Unless you're counting the time I stole a chap stick because all my friends were stealing stuff, but since I felt so guilty about it that I went back 2 hours later and put it on the shelf again without ever opening it, I don't think it counts. So, I'm officially arrest free, officer." 
 Dean laughs. "Why does it not surprise me that you would do something like that?"
 "Nerdy… I know."
 "I was going to say adorable." Castiel flushes at his words, ducking his head. It's so goddamn endearing that Dean finds himself admitting something for the first time since it happened. "I was arrested once. When I was 15." 
 "Really?"
 "Yup. Sent to a boy’s home and everything." 
 Castiel looks confused. Dean expects him to ask how he could be a cop then, in which Dean would explain the whole juvenile records being sealed thing. Instead, he surprises Dean by asking, "What did you do?" 
 "I stole some bread and peanut butter. Or, well, I tried to." Dean shrugs like it's no big deal. 
 Castiel doesn't brush it off so easily. He reaches a hand out and places it on top of Dean's where it rests beside his water glass. Dean stares at their hands pressed together as Castiel says softly, "You must have been really hungry. I'm sorry." 
 "It's uh... it's-," Dean needs to stop and clear his throat, suddenly overwhelmed.
 "It's okay." Castiel squeezes his hand gently. Like a reassurance. Like a promise that he's there. Still there. Not going anywhere. "Is that why you love food so much? Because it was such a luxury growing up?" 
 Tears threaten Dean's eyes. Castiel isn't pitying Dean or looking down on him. There's no judgement.
 Castiel understands. 
 "Yes," Dean whispers in relief. "Yes."
 Before they can discuss things further, the waitress comes to take their order. Since neither of them have really managed to look at the menu, they’re both caught a bit in the headlights. Thankfully their choices are limited on the special menu for the night, making it easier to rush through picking things out. They stumble through an agreement on pan seared scallops for an appetizer before Dean orders a medium rare filet mignon with a side of three cheese risotto and Castiel requests the same. 
 Dean worries that things will be awkward now that the conversation was halted but it’s not. The moment the waitress is gone to place their orders, it picks right back up. 
 “Hmmm.” Castiel glances around the restaurant, the wheels in his mind clearly turning. “On a scale of one to our asses getting kicked out, what do you think the rules are in me taking out my phone at a fancy place like this?”
 “They’ll probably just think our date’s going bad and feel bad for us.”
 The little scoffing sound Castiel makes is endearing as he pulls out his phone.
 Castiel starts scrolling through his phone as Dean is left to just stare at him. He laughs awkwardly after a minute. “Ummm, are we having a bad date?”
 “What?” Castiel looks up at him in confusion before shaking his head adamantly. “Absolutely not. This date is the best I’ve ever had. Which is kind of pathetic… since, you know, it’s not real or whatever.”
 “Feels real,” Dean admits. 
 Castiel blushes. “It does, doesn’t it?”
 Unsure of what he should say, Dean redirects the conversation. “Well, if it’s not that, then what the hell are you doing on your phone?”
 Instead of directly answering, Castiel says, “MasterChef auditions for the next seasons starts in October. Locations are L.A, Boston, Atlanta, Houston, New York City, and Chicago.”
 Dean’s heart skips. “You’re looking into MasterChef auditions?”
 “Yes.” Castiel looks up from his phone. “Didn’t you mention a while ago that your brother goes to Stanford? You mentioned you were going to visit him - I swear I’m not a creep, you mentioned it when-”
 “It’s fine, Cas. Yes, he goes to Stanford.”
 “Well then, there you go. L.A. in October and you can stop by and visit your brother while you’re at it.” Castiel beams at him. “That gives us nine months of preparation.”
 Us.
 “O-okay.”
 “Okay. It’s a plan.”
 A plan. 
 Dean decides to go out on a limb, wanting to check to see if Castiel means what he thinks he means. “So, you’re going to help me?”
 “Help you? Psssh.” Castiel puts his phone away and winks. “I’m going to be your official taste tester.”
 “Oh, you think so?”
 “Yup.”
 “And what exactly do I get out of this situation?”
 “Other than my excellent taste testing skills?” Castiel’s smile freezes before dropping a notch or two. "My company?"
 The way he says it, like he's suddenly very unsure of himself, breaks Dean's heart. 
 He reaches over for Castiel's hand now that it's free again, pulling it towards him so their intertwined hands can rest in the center of the table. "I'd say that's more than enough."
 "Yeah?" 
 "Yes." Dean takes a deep breath to steady himself. "And Cas?"
 "Yeah?"
 "I was wondering if maybe you'd-" Dean pauses, looking away from that gorgeous face and bright blue eyes in case he's rejected. "I was wondering if maybe you'd consider going on a real date with me sometime? Like… ya know.. for real."
 The pause that follows is so long that Dean is sure Castiel is going to say no but when he takes a chance and looks at Castiel again, Castiel is grinning. He nods enthusiastically as their eyes meet. "I'd love that. Can we count this as our first date though? Because I am terrible when it comes to first dates and this is already going so well." 
 Dean laughs in relief. "Sure.”
 “Perfect.” Castiel pauses, raising an eyebrow at him. “You’re not just dating me for the discount on coffee and donuts, are you?”
 The question is clearly teasing but there’s the slightest undertone of panic beneath it, as if Castiel can’t understand why Dean would genuinely like him.
 That will be something Dean fixes. He doesn’t care how long it takes.
 “No, Cas. I don’t give a shit about the coffee and donuts.” He leans forward and looks Castiel directly in the eyes. “Considering it’s 3 a.m., do you really think I’m coming to the station for coffee and donuts anymore? I usually eat half the donut, wash it down with a sip of the coffee – which is decaf, in case you were wondering – and then crash into bed thinking about the cute boy at the gas station.”
 Castiel seems to puff up. “Really?”
 “Really.”
 “All this time?”
 “Mhhm.” Dean’s smile fades as he turns serious. “The first time I came to the station was after a homicide. A man killed his wife. I’d been to their house twice before because of neighbors calling in the domestic abuse but the woman… no matter what we tried, she never pressed charges against him. Always took him back. Walking into that house that night and seeing her – shit, seeing her on the floor like that. It… wrecked me. I couldn’t get myself to go home after that. Just kept driving around. When I saw the station, I decided to stop on a whim. But then there you were, humming along to the song on the overhead radio as you arranged the candy display, and I was hooked.”
 With a shake of his head, Castiel mutters, “That’s not true. That – you’re not serious.”
 “It was a Tuesday. Winter. One of those nights where the air is crisp but warm so every inhale is relieved, not pained. I had to go to the station to change out of my uniform and into civilian clothes because I had blood on my shirt and it became part of evidence. I was in jeans and a ratty old flannel. It was the worst night of my career to this day, and one of the worst nights of my life.” Dean closes his eyes, letting his smile grow as he pictures the scene before him. “It was a Taylor Swift song and you were into it. Like, humming under your breath, shaking your ass, bobbing your head, into it. You had no idea I was even there. It was so… happy. You were just radiating this joy even thought it was the middle of the night and I doubted you were enjoying the fact that you were awake and working at a gas station. There was just something so freeing about you. I only used the bathroom because you were distracted and I didn’t want to pull you out of it, but the next night I came back in my uniform right when my shift ended and bought my first ever coffee and donut from you. And you-”
 “Laughed and said, ‘a cop buying coffee and a donut?’ Is it your life mission to become a cliché?’” Castiel finishes, his voice taking on the same tone as it did two years ago. He smiles at Dean in wonder. “I was very proud of myself for that, by the way. I was so flustered because you were gorgeous, and I just knew I was going to say something stupid. When that came out instead, I was stoked.”
 “Don’t worry, I figured out pretty quick it was a fluke.”
 Castiel’s jaw drops. “Hey, now!”
 “I’m just speaking the truth! You’re a god damn mess. Always dropping shit and stuttering and blushing.” Dean takes Castiel’s hand in his and smiles fondly. “It’s okay, though. I love that.”
 After staring at Dean for a few seconds, Castiel shakes his head. “I can’t believe it. All this time…”
 “Yeah, Cas.” Dean pushes forward, leaning across the table so his lips ghost against Castiel’s. “All this time.”

1, 2, 3, 7, 9, 13, 17, 23 (some of these are random and some aren't)
Thanks for the many questions, Socks! Sorry I didn’t answer them earlier; I decided answering asks on mobile sucks.  ALSO, this is going to be super long haha sorry.  1.  Tell us about your current project(s)  – what’s it about, how’s progress, what do you love most about it?       Well, my most current project is one I just started brainstorming. It’s (hopefully gonna be) a Fallout 3 series, with my latest fic being the starting point. LW/Fawkes is a ship I liked immediately when I played the series some years ago, but I never got around to writing for it, probably in part because there’s already a super good longfic about them, and I just didn’t think there was much else I could say. But my LW is different from Choco’s LW, and lately I wanted to start something self-indulgent. Although I have enough ideas for this to maybe be a single 30k fic, I’m choosing to do a series of shortfics instead, so that I’m not burdening myself with another long project. Fic series are great in that way, because it’s basically complete with every new fic.       On top of that, I have... probably 3 other things I want to make significant progress on this year. First is another Fallout fic: Same Heart. I’ve posted 8 chapters already and have almost 2 more done, but due to the slow-build nature of it (and my tagging) I don’t expect to have almost any readers until at least chapter 10 (when the ship characters finally meet). I’d like to at least get that far this year.       A project I’d love to finish by fall is the unreleased “The Wilderness”, a Venom zombie AU that I started for NaNoWriMo 2 years ago. It’s about 55% written, and my goal is to have as much of it done as possible before the sequel movie comes out. If it’s not done by then, I still plan to post whatever I have.       And lastly-ish, my novel... thing. Rogue. I’m in the process of editing it, although I’ve taken kind of a break lately. And as soon as I’m done with the edits and can get a couple of people to read it (just so they can tell me if certain parts are stupid and need changed) I plan to start the next book in the series... which will probably end up being book #1, actually, if I do them modern-era chronologically. It’s... gonna be a process. ^^;  2.  Tell us about what you’re most looking forward to writing – in your current project, or a future project.       In my upcoming FO3 fic series, I’m honestly just kind of weirdly looking forward to... how do I put this? Exploring my own vaguely-traumatic experiences through fic. I’ll always do a happy ending, if possible, but before we get there I really want to run these two through the ringer of... being given something they were led to believe was impossible, being judged for it, having it taken away, and then being told “well maybe it’s for the best”.       When it comes to future projects, I guess I’m really excited about writing the new Rogue book. “Reaper”, I guess, is its unimaginative working title. I’m anxious about it, because I thought Rogue had some really deeply emotional scenes, and I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to accomplish that as well with this new one, simply because the characters don’t have the same level of desperation about each other. I need to figure out what’s unique about their dynamic and push that. I guess I’m looking forward to the challenge.  3.  What is that one scene that you’ve always wanted to write but can’t be arsed to write all of the set-up and context it would need? (consider this permission to write it and/or share it anyway)       Hmm gosh. Technically there’s a scene in the later chapters of Mobius that I already wrote, but it wouldn’t take place until probably chapter 3 or later, and I just lost all steam on that fic, sadly. But every time I poke through my notes I make myself cry reading it. It’s a scene where one character knows it’s going to be the last time he sees the person he loves most, and he can’t explain his pain to anyone. I really just want to get there so I can see if it makes other people cry like babies haha.       But on a completely unrelated note, there’s also this ZADR fic I started writing in like 2009, and I absolutely didn’t want to do the work to get to the fun middle scenes, but basically it was an AU where young adult Dib went to live/work in the thriving multi-species space community, where he’s... I dunno, studying alien biology I think?, and he ends up with Zim as a roommate. The scenes I really wanted to write were about the two of them getting into like a bar fight with some tough types, and Zim gets his pak ripped off/damaged in the process, and Dib has to sort of take care of him through a horrible fever. But then it turns out that the pak was not a life-support system like they thought, but actually a growth inhibitor so they (the people in charge of the Irkens) could choose who became the Tallest (the leaders). (And also it hindered reproduction, etc.) So basically the two of them accidentally start to unravel a galactic conspiracy which also involves corruption in the Earth government, etc, and Zim gets taller but spoiler alert, he still doesn’t get tall enough to challenge the Tallest lol. Sadly, I doubt I’ll ever actually write that fic. Sounds like too much effort lol.  7.  What do you think are the characteristics of your personal writing style? Would others agree?       That’s such a hard question. Ummm. How do I put any of that into words? ...I think one of the things about my writing is that a lot of the time nothing really happens in a scene, and the story mostly focuses on a character thinking. Like, enough happens so there’s something for them to think about, but I think I tend to put a lot of emphasis on POV character’s thoughts, to the point of sometimes seeming stream-of-consciousness. I’ve been told that this makes my stories feel alive though? So I think it appeals to some people, though I’m sure others would find such stories boring.       Oh also, somewhat along these lines, I like to add commentary that is only somewhat relevant, usually in parenthesis at the end of a sentence or paragraph. (Honestly, it’s not unusual to see one in every paragraph if I’m writing something slightly humorous.)  9.  Are you more of a drabble or a longfic kind of writer? Pantser or plotter? Do you wish you were the other?      I would LOVE to write primarily longfics! However, I just don’t have the time or energy for it, and I don’t write fast enough. So I end up with a lot of oneshots under 10k. I had to challenge myself to learn to write short things though, and then it’s really about writing something short, not about writing a specific story.       Generally, I’m both pantster and plotter. I tend to write the first chapter/few scenes/maybe as much as 10k, just by the seat of my pants. After that, I look at what I’ve got and write out a plot to continue from there. Plotting everything out before I start just doesn’t work for me, but if I try “pantsing” anything longer than 15k I know I’m gonna have an absolute torturous hell of a time.  13.  Do you share your writing online? (Drop a link!) Do you have projects you’ve kept just for yourself?      Lol I think anyone who’s reading this knows I share my stuff online. Primarily on my AO3, though there’s some other stuff floating around here on tumblr too.  Most of the time if I keep something to myself it’s only because it’s not finish enough to share. So, sure, there’s plenty of that, but the goal is always to share it eventually. If I ever get around to finishing a novel, those will probably be the only things I don’t just post online. (Though I do post most of my OC stuff currently.)  17.  Do you think readers perceive your work - or you - differently to you? What do you think would surprise your readers about your writing or your motivations?       I think that inevitably my readers will always perceive me and my writing a bit differently than I do. That’s just... interacting with people. Nobody knows you entirely. However, I am as open and honest in my writing as possible, and I actually think that reading my fic is the best way to get to know me. I like to hope that I am an open book to anyone who has read many of my words. =] While you may not know the details of my life, I think you would have a good insight into my personality.    23.  What’s the story idea you’ve had in your head for the longest?       Like... my oldest fic/story that I’ve never written or posted? Not counting stuff I’ve consciously abandoned (things from middle school, mostly), my original fic series, “Damsel and Company in Distress” aka DamselCo. is definitely my oldest story. I think I started fiddling with it in 2006-- which makes it pretty disappointing that it’s gotten next to nowhere. XD; But the story is my baby, and it’s been my baby for so long that anyone who’s followed me ever is probably at least vaguely familiar with a few of the characters.  Now maybe one day I’ll actually give it the attention it deserves, though I’m sure it’ll need significant revamping. After all, a lot has changed in 14+ years. Ideas that were new and subversive then are probably already stale.

Interview with an OC
Charlotte Elizabeth “Charlie” McKay
Tumblr media
Tagged by @scarecrow-forest, @andremarshallwhite, @metalforhands, @radioactiveblight, @robobrainmurdermysterytheatre, and @scorpio-skies. Thank you guys so much! <3 Sorry it’s taken me so long!!
Tagging: ^^^ I’d like to start by tagging back everyone who tagged me. I know you all probably have other OCs you could do this for! Also @purple-martin111, @mars-colony, @wastelandwandererstuff, @slothssassin, @maxrev, @sharonaw, @ronqueesha, @val-rampage, @alexaberkeley, @fanthings, @tarberrymentats, @thewookieruns, @beckiboos and anyone else who either hasn’t done this yet or wants to do another OC.
1. What is your name?
Charlotte McKay, but everyone just calls me Charlie. Only my mother and Danse call me Charlotte.
2. Do you know why are you named that?
No idea. Charlotte was probably something my mother thought sounded high society. She hated when people called me Charlie. Come to think of it, that’s probably why I prefer it. *laughs*
3. Are you single or taken?
*Looks down at her hands, twists the ring there and smiles* Taken. Very taken.
4. Have any abilities or powers?
Hmm...does being better than MacCready at every single video game count? *you hear shouting from somewhere off in the distance, “BULLSHI..er CRAP! THAT’S A LIE AND YOU KNOW IT CHARLIE!”*
5. Stop being a Mary Sue.
*raises one eyebrow* Appearances can be deceiving.
6. What’s your eye color?
Grey. Dull and boring.
7. How about your hair color?
Umm...brown. *gives you a look like “duh”*
8. Have any family members?
Yeah, I have an amazing man and a brilliant little boy. I also have a lot of people that aren’t officially family, but they might as well be. 
9. Oh? How about pets?
Well, there’s Dogmeat, though I don’t know that he’s a pet. He doesn’t really belong to me, he just chooses to hang out with us sometimes. We also have a cat named Tiger and Shaun is trying to convince me that he needs to adopt a molerat. That’s NOT happening though.
10. That’s cool, I guess. Now tell me something you don’t like?
Assholes. Look, I don’t care who or WHAT you are, just don’t be a dick and we’ll get along fine.
11. Do you have any activities/hobbies that you like to do?
Beating MacCready at video games. *laughs and pauses to see if anyone interjects. Shakes her head.* I don’t really have that much free time, but I love reading when I get a chance, singing I guess and...stargazing. There used to be so much light pollution before the war, now when it’s clear you can so many more stars than before. It’s best done with company. *she winks*
12. Have you ever hurt anyone in any way before?
Yeah. I have. A lot of people probably. Let’s move on.
13. Ever… killed anyone before?
You’re joking, right? Killing is, unfortunately, part of surviving out here.
14. What kind of animal are you?
*she just looks at you and blinks a couple of times* Really?
15. Name your worst habits?
Ummm, yeah. That would be acting before thinking. Also, speaking before thinking. Just not really thinking.
16. Do you look up to anyone at all?
A lot of people. Probably Danse most of all. I know he’s had some messed up ideas in the past, but he’s learning, he can admit that he doesn’t know everything. I’ve just never met anyone that selfless before, ya know?. I admire the hell out of him for it, but it also scares me. He needs to take better care of himself.
17. Are you gay, straight or bisexual?
*raises her eyebrows* That’s a bit personal don’t you think? My current partner is a man, draw whatever conclusions you want.
18. Do you go to school?
I did. For a long, loooong time.
19. Ever want to marry and have kids one day?
I had a kid. And a Husband. *pauses* I HAVE a kid and as for marriage, I mean I...we haven’t...I’d like t..., look I don’t know. What I do know is that I’m with someone that I’m damned sure I’ll spend the rest of my life with.
20. Do you have any fangirls/fanboys?
What? No. *the yelling returns, “Hel...heck yeah she does!”* Shut up Mac!
21. What are you most afraid of?
*she looks noticeably uncomfortable and wraps her arms around herself* I can’t lose...I need to keep my family safe.
22. What do you usually wear?
Something comfortable, practical. I love these, “she gestures to the jumper she’s wearing* One piece, easy to put on, comfortable, can strap armor over the top. It even has a little Minuteman logo. See?
23. What’s one food that tempts you?
Fancy Lads Snack Cakes. I’ve been weak for them my whole life. They aren’t the same as they were before, but whatever chemicals they used to preserve them do their job because that taste is still irresistible. They’re even better when shared. *smiles*
24. Am I annoying to you?
We’re good! As long as you don’t ask me what kind of animal I am again. *rolls eyes*
25. Well, it’s still not over!
Okaaay.
26. What class are you (low/middle/high)?
Before the bombs? Probably upper middle class? My husband’s family was rich, like stupid rich. We did okay though, probably better than most. 
Now though? Who really cares? Regardless of what certain residents in Diamond City might have you think, the class system is gone and good riddance. Of course, there are always going to be people or groups who think they’re better than others. Let them have their delusions. It doesn’t bother me until they start trying to lord it over others. *shrugs* 
27. How many friends do you have?
*smiles* I’m so lucky. I have a lot of friends. A lot of really great friends.
28. What are your thoughts on pie?
Pie is great! Dierdre over at the Slog makes an absolutely to die for Tarberry pie. It’s tart, with just the right amount of sweet. Mmmmm, so good!
29. Favorite drink?
Whiskey, neat. Nuka Cola if I need a pick me up. I like a good stout too.
30. What’s your favorite place?
Anywhere Danse is. *smiles and blushes just a bit* That’s it.
31. Are you interested in anyone?
Uh, I thought we’d established that. Yes. Interested. Very interested.
32. That was a stupid question…
Kind of. 
33. Would you rather swim in a lake or the ocean?
What? Now?! Neither unless I want radiation poisoning or to be eaten by mirelurks or whatever other irradiated monstrosities might be lurking.
34. What’s your type?
Oh, ya know. Dark hair and dreamy brown eyes, hardheaded, loyal to a fault, stupidly selfless, has a mild addiction to power armor.
35. Any fetishes?
Okay. Remember when you asked me if you were annoying me? I’m thinking about revising my answer.
36. Camping or outdoors?
Wait. Isn’t camping outdoors? I’m confused. To be honest half the time I’m off on a mission, I’m camping or as Danse calls it, bivouacking. He’s such a dork. Damn, I love him.
So are we done now? Hello?

I love your 'writer' mind. Can you bestow us, the frustrated ones who could never seem to string words together in this writing camaraderie, some wise ol' writing tips? Please and thank you.
Oh, wow. Ummm…. I’m not sure I’m qualified to give any hard and fast rules about writing as a discipline (mostly because I have zero discipline as a writer these days), but I can totally share some things that happen to work for me!
1) Write what you wanna read. Seriously. I cannot tell you the number of times I’ve been reading a story, or watching tv, and gone “I would have rather have seen this…” or “what if this had happened instead?” A lot of times, it’s me inserting my favorite ship into a movie I’m watching. In the end, if it’s not something you’d read, what’s the point?
2) Write longhand. This is a key step in my own creative process for long/serial pieces. Writing longhand allows me to think slower, and I usually get a richer prose out of it. Typing it out after serves as one of my revision steps, and it more effective for me because I’m forced to read every word, whereas I’d just be skimming if I was staring at a word doc. It’s also fun to go back and see how a scene evolves. I use google docs, which autosaves instantaneously, so anything I get rid of disappears into the ether. But seeing the various iterations of a piece that I’ve written down lets me see the myriad perspectives and tones a scene can have before I find the one that clicks. Also, shake things up a bit. If a thing you’re typing isn’t working, try writing by hand, and vice versa. I don’t know why, but it helps.
3) Write the way that works for you. This is my take on the write, write, write tip everyone likes to give. Practice makes perfect, whatever. But everyone’s different. Some people aren’t good at writing multi-chaps. They lose interest, their lives get sporadically busy, and “what did I have planned there again?” So, stick with the one- to three-shot range. Some people can’t work without a complete outline of every single scene in every single chapter– you rock that slow burn, baby. I’ve been too busy lately for a multi-chap, but I can sure as hell crank out a headcanon or two (or ten) on my phone. Doesn’t matter what it is, because it’s all writing, and is still practice.
4) Have the means to write at all times. I have 3 main methods of writing. Longhand, laptop, and phone. I’m stuck in line at the store? I can type up a snippet in the notes section on my phone. Got some time to kill at the coffeeshop? Out comes the laptop. Slow shift and being on a computer makes it look like I’m browsing facebook on company time? Let me pull out my leatherbound journal to write by hand like a fancy artiste. I usually have all three, but my phone is always the bare minimum, and so can always write, no matter where I am, or how much time I have.
5) Experiment! Say you really like the way an author writes action scenes, or you find a fic that reads like poetry. Try to replicate it! I wrote just because I let you go because I read a bunch of angsty, lyrical fics that made me want to do a story that could move someone to tears. When I wanted to try writing a story that had a rich enough world surrounding it that it could read like a novel, I wrote Drift. My first ever episode tag turned into a 70 chapter companion fic of 240k words. Fandom is the BEST place to try new things: 99.9% of the readers are supportive and kind, and will give you feedback if you ask for it.
6) Be kind to yourself. There will be chapters and fics that get zero feedback. This is not a reflection on you or your ability. There are some days the writing simply will not work, no matter what you do. When that happens, and you feel yourself getting fed up, take a break. Go for a walk, eat a yummy meal, take a nap. Play a video game! Escape your brain for a little bit, and when you get back to it things will feel better. 
And if all else fails, remember this…
You are the only reader you need to worry about satisfying. 
If you enjoy it, then it was worth the writing.

Favourite musicians: my gut instinct is the groups from love live bc im incapable of separating special interest shit from casual listening lol, but i also dont pay much attention to individual musicians bc i mostly listen to dance music & ive always interpreted those genres being more abt tracks and the culture overall rather than individuals who are “personalities” ig? like they certainly exist but anyway. outside of that i rly like brockhampton, joanna newsom, and rico nasty, both as musicians and when considering their music alone 
Song stuck in your head: denzel curry’s ricky bc @deadg1rls named it in her post and sierra & i just listened to zuu for the first time yesterday !

Favourite songs: im going to try to limit myself to just a few lmao, they change a lot but some that remain are in california by joanna newsom, most of jpegmafia’s veteran and singles since, also most of hannah diamond’s music (esp soon i wont see u at all), key lime og by rico nasty, ritm by µ-ziq, parallel by hiroyuki oda, & the big big beat by azealia banks

How would you dress, if you were the opposite sex? Same style I do now, really. Though not tank tops and dance pants; I'm sure I'd mostly wear loose band or graphic tees and sweatpants. Can you remember your first phone? If so, what kind was it? I think I might? I believe it was a blue one where the keyboard slides out from the bottom. Small and square-ish.

Favorite way to decorate a cake? *shrugs* What gift(s) did you get for your birthday last year? I don't remember. What do you daydream about the most? My future. Name a game you are really good at. Shadow of the Colossus probably, but considering how infrequently I play games now, I'm sure I'm nowhere near as good as I used to be. Whenever I get a PS4 and the remake tho, I'm getting that goddamn white Agro. I never did the timed challenges before, but I think I could do it. What kinds of snacks do you munch on? I don't really have snacks anymore; I try to keep them out of the house so I'm not tempted. If anything though, it'll probably be some kind of chip. What emotionally exhausts you? Socializing.

How do you like to bathe/shower? With hot-ish water. The most childish part of your personality? I absolutely hate chores. Favorite type of fantasy creature? Dragons. Do your arms move when you walk?

What’s your daily routine? Wake up, check the time, use the bathroom, have breakfast, feed my cat, sit on the laptop doing nothing, maybe or maybe not have a nap at some point, shower if I need to whatever time I feel like, also brush my teeth at some random point during the day (unless I have to go somewhere; then I'll do it before I leave), eat dinner, feed the other pets, and go to bed. Did you get in trouble for cussing on accident when you were a kid? I literally yelled "HOLY SHIT, I THINK I SEE A SHARK!" when we were all in the car driving over a bridge and I swear I saw a fin in the water, lmao. Mom was. Not happy. Ever made a snow angel? Yes. Are you short or tall for your age? I'm average. At what age did you learn the Pledge of Allegiance? Idk, early elementary school. What’s the longest you’ve gone without food? When my appetite was like non-existent and I lost a shitload of weight, I think I almost went a full 24 hours. What do you think about most? What's stressing me out. Are you honestly a good person?

Do you believe more in luck or hard work? That's a good question. Sometimes you can work your ass off and yet reap inadequate - or any - rewards, while some people pick up a lottery ticket once in their life and are suddenly a millionaire. Life's not fair, kids. But I like to think hard work usually prevails. Do you have any metal on or in your body right now? Piercings. What is your favorite thing to eat with dip? Plain chips with sour cream dip... yum. Do you consider yourself a heartbreaker? Nope. Who was the last person to tag a picture of you? Who even knows. I don't get tagged in pictures because I'm never with people to take and tag me in any lmao. Have you ever liked someone much older than you? No. Is there someone you always, secretly hope will talk to you? It's not a secret that I want to talk to Jason ONE last time to apologize on MY end. What was your first favorite band? Backstreet Boys. Are you friends with any bands? A local band, yeah; their guitarist is an old friend. Do you stay up ridiculously late for no reason? Very very rarely now. What’s your life motto? Idk, I've never really thought about it. Last year for school, we had an assignment where we had to choose a popular song to write a story based on. What song would you’ve picked? A popular song? Oh boy, idk. I don't really know what's popular that I like... Well, guess I'll think of old songs I know were. Um... Oh well I love writing sad shit, so maybe "Runaway Love" by Ludacris ft. Mary J. Blige. I already had an RP plot that was kinda inspired by it lmao. Do you like 3OH!3? If I said I wouldn't belt "'CUZ I'M A VEGETARIAN AND I AIN'T FUCKIN' SCARED'A HIM" at a club at 2 in the morning I'd be lying. Did the vacuum scare you as a child? No. Do you have a long driveway? No. Anyone’s grave you visit, regularly? No. Who was your first kiss? First person who kissed me was Juan, first mutual kiss (which I consider my "real" first) was with Jason. What was it like? Were you disappointed? Juan's kiss I didn't want, and it made me confused at the time. I had no clue how I felt about him back then. With Jason, it was incredibly sweet. I was lucky to get like a fairy tale one and not a horribly awkward memory lmao. Do you have an older brother? If so, what’s he like? Yeah. He's super super intelligent and a deep thinker. Very mature and has a great sense of humor. Are you confident? hunty- Have you ever begged someone to stay with you? Yes. Who do you want around you when you’re afraid? More than anyone, Mom. Had separation anxiety as a kid, obviously grew out of it, but if I'm seriously scared, I want my mom's presence. Like if I'm sick (I'm petrified of vomiting alskdfjaowie) or we're having risky weather, stuff like that, I want her with me. Have you ever mistaken something’s shadow for something else? Probably at some point. Indie, rock, electronic, techno, dubstep, or ‘crunk’? The hell is "crunk" music. Rock. Do you know how to read a map? I have no clue 'cuz I've never actually used a real one. Have a friend that looks JUST like a celeb? Not off the top of my head. Are you good at basketball? I used to be, but I haven't played in forever. It was probably my favorite sport that I ever played. Or softball. Are you friends with anyone missing one of their five senses? Not that I know of. How many times have you moved in your lifetime? Three. Are you good at Pac-Man? I was never exceptional. I haven't played it in yeeeaaars. Have you ever been called 'jail bate’? No. Have you ever been seriously addicted to anything? Technology oops like I barely know how to function without it, sadly. Ever lied to get out of going somewhere with someone? Yes. Where did you meet your current or last significant other? YouTube. Do you like to eat pasta? Yes. Do you enjoy wine? Most bitter shit in the world. Noooooooot a fan. How long have you been driving? I've had my permit since senior year of high school (I think senior???), but I still don't have my license. What’s your lawyer’s name? N/A What’s the last thing you watched on Netflix? Good question. Do you play any video games? The only one I play regularly is World of Warcraft; it's the only "ongoing" game I play. Why were you last in the hospital? My sister got into a wreck. Would you ever get a face tattoo? Possibly something small and subtle, but I doubt it. Have you ever gambled? No. What has been your most epic cooking failure? I split a hot dog entirely in half in the microwave because I thought it'd take much longer to warm up than it actually did. Do you read other people’s survey answers on here? Sometimes. Do you agree with the saying ‘distance makes the heart grow fonder?’ With my experience with Sara, yes. Do you know any transgender people?

Would you rather have a house exterior made from wood, brick, or stucco? I like wood aesthetically, but I think eliminating wood housing would be a good idea, so brick.

I have lain with holy wars and copulated with the autumnal fallout. I have dug trenches for the refugees; I have murdered dissidents where the ground never thaws and starved the masses into faith. A child's shadow burnt into the brickwork. A house of skulls in the jungle. The innocent, the innocent, Mandus, trod and bled and gassed and starved and beaten and murdered and enslaved. This is your coming century! They will eat them, Mandus, they will make pigs of you all and they will bury their snouts into your ribs and they will eat your hearts!"

I sincerely don't care, especially if there is damage on the person's state. Like if you're suicidally depressed or very sick in another way and have to go out, don't be a fucking ass and force them to do something that can legitimately be hard for people just to appease the standards society set. A basic rule to me is never make assumptions or ask why they're in their pj's. I do it a lot, depending on where I'm going. Like you have clothes on at least, why the hell does it matter. What’s something you’re really bad at compared to others? Math. Knowing the names of cars. Giving directions and knowing where I even am in comparison to everything else.

Do you have to really know someone to kiss them? Absolutely. I have to actually be romantically interested in you. Well, to kiss you on the lips. Kissing family on the cheek and such is different. Were you anyone’s first kiss? No. Will you keep your last name when you get married? No, please take that shit away. Where was the last place you held hands at? I'm not sure. If you could live in any home on television what would it be? BITCH take me to the Addams' Family home. Do you think morals are universal or relative to the beliefs, traditions, or practices of individuals or groups? Mostly universal. Like just to give an example, some Christian religions forbid eating shellfish, so while avoiding shellfish is moral to you, is it really immoral to eat it? Is torture ever a good option? If no, why not? If yes, when? No. It's just... so inhuman. Regardless of what one has done, never lose your grip on being one. Be a moral human being. Don't succumb to that evil. What do you think is one one of the most undervalued professions right now? Teaching. Have you ever seen anyone have a heart attack? No, thank Christ.

I really love both The Blair Witch Project films, The Shining definitely joined the top tier when I watched it recently, and The Crazies is great, too. Would you say you have a high sex drive or not so much? I'd say it's normal. What was the worst thing a friend has either done or said to you? Oh boy, who knows. One of the billion things Colleen said and did. Something you feared as a kid but don’t fear anymore? Taking the last answer because it's like the #1 thing: death. It's inevitable, and immortality seems horrible. I just hope I go with the least pain possible. What is your opinion on girls who become obsessed with their boyfriends? lmaooooo been there sweetie, don't do it. Are you biracial? No. What’s the most unique pet you’ve owned? My champagne ball python. Do you have a fence? On either side and at the back of the house. How many people of the opposite sex do you fully trust? Just my psychiatrist. I feel bad for not including Dad, but nightmares fucked me up hard. Does your family use coasters? Is anyone in your family excessively tidy? No. Do you still have your tonsils? Yep. Do you think making out is slutty? ... No...? Well, at least if you're in a relationship and love the person. Just casually doing it, quite honestly yes, I think it's slutty.

After Archie and Jughead’s fight about Sheriff Keller we thought they wouldn’t be talking for a while. But Jug came to Riverdale High to ask Archie a favor. I guess best friends stay together no matter what. Archie cancelled our plans because of it, he said it was important so I didn’t mind. I was shocked that he was gonna help Jug in the first place since he didn’t really support Jughead being a Serpent. Archie hated that I used to go to the Southside to hang out with the Serpents. Well that was the day after I had talked with my sister, Kevin and Betty.
“You guys, I’m worried about my dad. The town is turning on him. He’s trying his best under these crazy circumstances, but this Black Hood stuff is really getting to him.” Kevin said.
“How is he dealing with it?” I asked.
“Yeah, what’s he been doing?” Betty asked.
“He’s not sleeping. He’s not eating. I hear him rummaging around the house at odd hours, talking to himself, just heading out in the middle of the night.
“Where do you think he’s going?”
“Where’s he going?” Betty and Veronica asked at the same time.
“I don’t know. But wherever it is, it’s… It’s like he’s a different person.” Kevin said and we looked at him confused.
“I should get to class.” He added then walked off. Betty, Veronica and I went to the Blue and Gold room.
“Poor Kevin. He’s like a character in a lost Tennessee Williams play.” Veronica said.
“Guys, I have a theory about Sheriff Keller.” Betty said.
“Oh me too.” Veronica said.
“It’s obvious.” I added.
“He’s the Black Hood.” Betty said.
“He’s having an affair.” Veronica and I said at the same time as Betty.
“What?” The two of us asked shocked.
“Is that a joke?” I asked confused.
“I wish it were.” Betty said.
“Whatever crazy web that you’re spinning, B, let me break it down for you. Sheriff Keller’s wife’s away, he’s failing at his job, He’s looking for comfort, sneaking around.” Veronica said.
“All signs point to cheating.” I added.
“Well, I don’t know, maybe he’s having an affair, and he’s the Black Hood.” Betty said and I rolled my eyes.
“You’ve known Kevin’s dad how many years?” I asked.
“Okay, think about it. The Black Hood killed Mr. Phillips in a cell at the Sheriff’s Station. How do you explain that?” Betty asked.
“No good security?” I said with a shrug.
“Betty, Kevin needs our friendship right now, not your groundless suspicions.” My sister said with a sigh.
“Don’t worry, my intuition’s telling me that he’s having an affair. But stay tuned while I prove it.” She said and then got up and left. I followed her out just as the bell rang. I saw her meeting up with Kevin and I walked over to the two.
“So I’ve been wracking my brain for something that might cheer you up, and I have just the prescription.” Veronica said and I rolled my eyes.
“Just tell him that you want to have a sleepover.” I said and they looked at me.
“How did you know?” She asked.
“I’m your sister, I know all your feel better plans.” I said and Kevin laughed.
“Doesn’t that sound fun?” Veronica asked him.
“A sleepover at the Pembrooke?” Kevin asked.
“Actually, Kev, I was thinking how we’ve never seen your house.” Veronica said and I he smiled and nodded.
“Sounds like a plan.” He said and nodded. That night Veronica and I went to Kevin’s house and we were in his room playing some bored game.
“And if you roll a six, you can take over the Kingdom of Theodore.” Kevin said and Veronica looked confused, she was never into anything nerdy. I on the other hand thought this was going to be fun.
“Interesting.” Veronica said and then her phone rang.
“Ummm… I’m gonna go get a bevvy. Do you guys want anything?” She asked.
“A glass of milk would be great.” Kevin said with a smile.
“Whatever you want to get me.” I said to her. She left and then it was just the two of us.
“So Kev, how’s it been?” I asked smiling.
“It’s been alright.” He said.
“So, you’re into this game? I can tell Veronica isn’t.” He said and I nodded.
“Yeah, she’s not one for nerdy games. I love them though!” I smiled.
“What’s taking your sister so long?” Kevin asked confused and I shrugged.
“I’m gonna go check on her.” He said and got up. Not long after they came back and we decided to just talk. We went to bed after a while and Kevin gave the two of us his bed like a gentleman. I felt Veronica get up in the middle of the night and watched as she looked out the window. She gave a quiet gasp and I sat up looking at her confused. She got back into bed and looked at me.
“Kevin’s dad just left.” She whispered.
“So he is having an affair…” I whispered back and she nodded.
The next day Betty and Veronica met up to talk about what happened. I however was trying to get in touch with Archie but he said busy helping Jughead. I decided to go and sneak off to the Southside to visit my friends. I put on a cheetah print crop top, some leather pants, a leather jacket, and my red bottoms. For makeup, I put on a gold and black eyeshadow and a red lip.
My parents weren’t home so I left. Andre stopped me and asked me where I was going,  I told him I was going out with Archie. He said he should drive me but I declined. I said I needed the fresh air and he let me go. I walked all the way to the Southside and texted Toni telling her I was on my way. She met me outside the bar and smiled when she saw me.
“Hey girl!” She said happily.
“Hey, sorry I haven’t been around lately. My dad’s been keeping a close eye on me.” I said rolling my eyes.
“I heard from Jughead some rich asshole tried to have his way with you?” She asked and I nodded with a sigh.
“Yeah, um, but let’s forget about that. Let’s just have a good night!” I said with a smile.
“You got it girly.” She said with a wink. We walked inside the bar and a tall and short guy walked up to us.
“Hey, Topaz!” The shorter one said with a smile.
“Hey you’re Andrews’ girl.”  The tall on said.
“And you’re Sweet Pea right?” I asked and he nodded.
“I don’t think your Bulldog boy would be very happy about you being here, especially dressed like that.” Sweet pea said looking me up and down.
“Pea, she’s taken, back off.” Toni said rolling her eyes.
“You know I bet I’m way better than Andrews.” He continued with a wink. Fangs laughed and Toni rolled her eyes again. He grabbed my arm and took me away from them.
“Stop flirting with my friends!” She shouted over she shoulder and I laughed.
“That happens a lot huh?” I asked with a smile and she nodded.
“I can’t really have any girl friends because those two always flirt with them.” She said and I laughed.
“Well good thing I’m not into either of them.” I said with a wink.
“Right, let’s get you a drink so I can see you shake.” She said winking back.
The two of us drank and danced the night away. I let all the stress melt off just for a night. I forgot about Nick, Archie, my family, everything. It was just a night of freedom and it felt amazing!
