My only real and valid writing tip is that you google every word you make up for your fantasy stories. That's It

I love British mystery shows set in beautiful peaceful quaint idyllic towns full of simple happy folk who are constantly murdering the shit out of each other.

Simon Walker and Brendan Brady fight / sex scene (Hollyoaks Later, s05e05) Putting this under a "read more" because of triggering content. TW for SA / dubcon and violence.

Finding out tumblr is discovering Hollyoaks in 2023/24 thanks to Neil is kinda hilarious, so I'll spare you clicking through 60 episodes and just share the scenes I know you're looking for.
Kiss scene (S18E119 / 14th june 2012):
Will upload the sex scene to a different post, since Tumblr only allows one video per post.

absolutely love reading such a well-written story and falling a bit in love with the author based solely on the way they write. like baby the way you italicize words makes my heartbeat quicken.

[ID: post by Megan Wegenke (@ MegWegenke). I don't completely know how to explain this, but as a cat owner you quickly learn that "absence of cat (chill)" and "absence of cat (suspicious)" are two very different kinds of silence]

🎨 ⇢ link your favourite piece of fanart and explain why you like it
Oooh I linked some stargate art for this one before but I'll also take the chance to throw a stormlight piece in here... It was hard to choose one cause I love everything lamaery does and especially everything with Dalinar, but
The part one comic from the "you cannot have my pain" scene, just. Fuck. One of my favourite scenes and the art is just incredible 😭

🍅🧩 for the ask game
🍅 ⇢ give yourself some constructive criticism on your own writing
I frequently have to smack my own wrist for putting too much physical & movement detail into my writing. Like, chill chaos, people generally know how human bodies work it's fine 😂 Usually I fix that up during the writing and editing process to take out unnecessary detail while leaving in the good stuff, but sometimes it probably still sneaks by and makes for some seriously clunky passages here and there.
...Also, yeah, not every period needs to be a semi-colon. Sometimes I need to remember that short(er) sentences read just fine 😶
🧩 ⇢ what will make you click away from a fanfiction immediately?
No spaces between paragraphs, my brain simply cannot process it. A fic could have the best tags and summary ever, but if I run into a solid wall of text without paragraph formatting, I'm gone. With regret, to be sure, but still gone.

one of the important cornerstones of fandom is understanding that your headcanon is not everyone else's headcanon, and i'm not sure when people stopped understanding this

🍦
🍦 ⇢ name three good things about a character you hate
okay, but, hear me out. Does this mean a character I hate as a person but love as a well-done bastard of a character? Or a character I hate in fandom but enjoy them in the source material? Or simply an awful character who I think was terribly done and should just disappear from canon entirely? 🤣
Well, I'm going to choose the first one, and go with Commander Acastus Kolya.
He's unreasonably fixated on Sheppard (I mean, ditto). And we get to watch the fallout because it's a two-way obsession and I love it.
So, so bastard-hot. Yes. I could watch him be a fucking dick all day any day.
Dead. (Sorry Kolya, but you did have to lose. Though you admittedly did deserve a rather more exciting end than you got.)

🕯️🍬❄️
🕯️ ⇢ on a scale from 1 to 10, how much do you enjoy editing? why is that?
oooh.... I'm gonna say... 9. I actually really like the editing part, because I feel like it's where I go from "hammered out concept" to "an actual story of some kind". I get to poke and fiddle and tease out the best way to say something, and find a pacing and rhythm and flow that feels good, and sometimes notice little themes that I didn't put in on purpose but once I spot them I can polish and play them up to better effect, and I love it!
🍬 ⇢ post an unpopular opinion about a popular fandom character
ahaaa harsh 🤣 alright here goes...
prequels Anakin is not Darth Vader in my mind-world and never will be 😶
❄️ ⇢ what's your dream theme/plot for a fic, and who would write it best?
huh! I honestly don't have an answer for this one, generally if I have an idea that sticks around and digs itself in there, I'll just go ahead and write it myself!

For the truth and dare ask game:
🦷 ⇢ share some personal wisdom or a life hack you swear on
My goodness. Everyone thinks I'm wise tonight, it seems...
Ooh okay here's one that I have to remind myself of a lot but it really is a good one. We should all stop diminishing our own accomplishments the fuckin' moment we accomplish them.
(For me, that's things like.. saying "thank you, I did work really hard on that!" instead of brushing it off as nothing, or enjoying going for more walks instead of immediately berating myself internally for all the times I didn't go for more walks. Stuff like that)
