20 Questions for Fanfic Writers

Ty @ezracomehome for the tag 😘

----

How many works do you have on ao3?

What’s your total ao3 word count?

156,652

What fandoms do you write for?

whatever is floating up the river to me that day. lil bit of this, lil bit of that. ;)

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Playdate - 890 kudos

Of Flowers and Numbers - 736 kudos

Accidents Happen - 422 kudos

Of Microwaves and Dodgeballs - 414 kudos

The One With the Single Room - 377 kudos

Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I never know if I should or not? Idk I was better at it on ff.net because the reply/inbox method worked better in my brain than how it goes on AO3 but if it's an indepth review/comment I try and reply these days

What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Published, I can think of something's not right which was thg and not the happiest

What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

most of them tbh I love happy endings xD not sure what defines "happiest" because it's different for all

Do you get hate on fics?

I have historically, but as mik said it was definitely more on ff.net than AO3. Most of it has been easy to ignore overall.

Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I do but not often, partially because of the ace part of me that doesn't entirely get it from an emotional perspective lolol. I'm most comfortable with F/F but can reasonably (I hope lol) write F/M.

Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

LAWL do stargate sg1/atlantis ones count? xD

Otherwise I don't think so? I've written AU's that have taken place in a different fandom universe but that's the closest.

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I know of so fingers are crossed that is still true

Have you ever had a fic translated?

I have! With permission, thankfully - which is all I ask tbh. :)

Have you ever cowritten a fic before?

I bounce ideas off of other writers/friends but never officially cowritten.

What’s your all-time favorite ship?

idk if I could choose just one !! part of me wants to say it would be a Stargate ship like Sam/Janet because Stargate is always the ultimate series for me but I feel like I'm biased bc I'm currently obsessed with them again. If this was the me of like ten years ago I would have said Swan Queen which is what I have written the most for but god OUAT and I are forever sworn enemies I just want to bully that series the way it bullied me. I'm going with Sam/Janet just because currently I would die for them.

What’s a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

I have a really good Friends with Benefit AU for Ivanova/Talia that I really want to finish and get out. A Soulmate AU for my bois Ted/Trent. A Heroes AU for Sam/Janet. Nothing has been published but I know they're waiting to be finished.

What are your writing strengths?

crack

but for real, funsies stuff is my fave. Also AUs, I excel at going in depth in my thoughts for them.

What are your writing weaknesses?

the serious stuff/angst tbh I just want to imagine it I don't want to put it into wordssss

Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I enjoy when there are translations in the end notes for when I'm reading it but I also will otherwise put it into a translate service. I guess when writing I will keep it to simple phrases I know more than like full sentences? I'm not sure I have a strong enough opinion on this tbh

First fandom you wrote for?

zoowemama 100% was stargate - it was terrible and I'm so glad I have improved since because it was purely self indulgent but I think my first like ten fics were stargate, with maybe a twilight one or two.

Favorite fic you’ve ever written?

my extremely self-indulgent THG AU with Hayffie in the stargate universe. I just wish the stargate universe was as popular of an AU for other fandom works but alas that is what I get for falling in love with 90s scifi !! but this was so much fun to write and put easter eggs in and it was one of the first ones I wrote purely for me and less about what amount of hits/kudos/reviews/etc.

mel my love hi !! i´m finally here to reply to your message! sorry it took me so long!!

first of all thanks so much for the support! i´m almost done with all my deadlines so yay!

and aaaah i totally get it noeasy is one of my face skz albums too! i just love those songs so much (star lost? my biggest love) and same!! i love their title tracks they're always so fun and hype! noise music our beloved <3

and omg that's so funny i totally get that! i actually had that with ateez. i remember first listening to pirate king and thinking ????? no. but then a couple of months (? sorry i have no sense of time) later i heard it again and was like ?????? yes. why did i ever hate this ashjdfsfhgjk.

aah i see! i hope you liked the title/album! and yes omg that's so fitting ahjkdf. your love for minho truly is the cutest :(

and ofc !! it had to be taste !!! but it's valid so i'll accept ahsdkg. i recently finally saw a vid of them performing it and !!! insanity.

as for which groups i like, we actually have a lot of groups in common! nct, svt and txt are also loves ! (pls dont ask me to pick biases im very bad at picking favorites ahfjdskhg) and omg day6!! in love with their music truly. i've listened to the rose and nflying and i've actually recently been getting into xheroes and p1h ! i adore kbands (and bands in general tbh) so much!

as for girlgroups, i actually listen to a lot of them as well ! i actually haven't really listened much to stayc but they seem so lovely ! my faves are probs itzy, le ssera, twice, red velvet, purple kiss and billlie? but i'm probably forgetting some agskdh. i actually love a lot of soloists as well but i'll stop here ahsdkf

and yes thanks so much for introducing me to his fancams !! it was so fun ! and ahfjkdhkjf he's insane i love him so. also i think i actually knew that cam!! and ugh so true he's so good it's sickening truly

as always wishing you a lovely day/night and !!!! merry merry christmas! i hope you have lovely holidays full of love and laughter and peace and ofc good food ! sending you all my love ! *hugs* - 🌻

okay but ateez…..their recent cb was really good like im still obsessed with cyberpunk, new world, etc lol im looking forward to the cb coming up!! idk much about them but i feel like ive absorbed some things through my moots 😂 i had the same thing with ateez too when i first got into kpop, i was like idk if this is for me either but now with nct and skz noise music i think my taste has changed LOL. it’s so interesting how our taste in art (not just music) can vary depending on the timing of when we come across it

the taste performance was crazy let’s not talk about that bc it makes me so unwell HAHAHA (aka lets talk about it bc i am so whipped for that man). lee know in that silk shirt 🥴🥴 how did u like skz replay?? omg and the danceracha stage for gayo daejejeon on new years eve, i cant wait for that 😁

i looove day6’s music too, i think their songs and lyrics have this feeing in them that idk how to explain but it’s relatable, and it also conveys a feeling of hope? i like rock sounds in general which i think is why i like kbands so much ^^ do u have any other fav kbands or bands besides the ones we already talked about? (also fine if u dont lol we listed a lot already)

ooh i listened to billie’s stuff recently and i liked it a lot, i also like their concept and even like the album/track titles! and they make a whole separate album thats a soundtrack for their actual album?? i think thats so cool

i hope you had a very merry xmas and are having a joyful holiday season 💕💕 im excited to find out who u are soon hehehe <33

Hi! Wanted to ask if 911 is worth watching. Looking for a new show to watch.

Heyyyy! 💕💖 The short answer is yes, lol.

Obviously I'm a big fan of the show, so I'm definitely biased; however, I do love the show and think it's really, really good. It actually surprised me. I went into it because I'd seen too many buddie gifsets, and I couldn't ignore it anymore. So I specifically started the show bc of buddie. Oddly enough, while I love buddie, they are not the reason I LOVE the show. It's a very grown up show that tells grown up stories about life, love, loss, and growth amidst the background of emergency responders. It's very deep (not that I like every plot line), and the character growth has really blown me away. I went in for buddie, but I fell in love with the firefam and every single character. I almost never like or care about everyone in a show. Usually I have a few favorites, and I'll suffer through everyone else's arcs. But not here. I care about each one. Bobby's story is so lovely and heartbreaking, and his journey is so beautiful. Athena and Michael's relationship and growth completely blew me away, and Hen and Karen are relationship goals (Hen is my fave). Oh gosh, and Bobby/Michael shenanigans are my fave! So long answer, yes, I totally think it's worth it if you're into long term, multi-seasonal storytelling about real life problems adults face. It can be gory at times. I have definitely watched a few episodes with my fingers in my ears, chanting, "Lalala," with my eyes closed. I don't do blood, violence, or gore, and I still love the show--the stories are that captivating. Oh, and each episode makes me laugh. They're really good at mixing comedy into the serious stuff, just great comedic timing, and did I mention Angela Bassett yet? Bc she's on the show, and she's an absolute goddess. Scene stealer.

Okay, sorry. This is a very long answer, but I really do love this show and could go on and on about it. I also watch 911: Lone Star, which is the Texas spin-off. It's also really good, and the cast is overall younger, so their stories are different bc they're in different places in their lives. Some people like both. Some prefer one to the other. I recommend both, but i personally like the og better.

I'm just gonna throw this in here bc you said you were looking for a new show... If you're into fun, campy good times with a lot of magic and idiocy, I highly, highly recommend Merlin. It's been off air 10 years almost, and the fandom is still going strong. I ADORE this show. It's a feel good romp that just makes me happy, and again I love all of the characters. Merlin gave me such Xena vibes, and I loved Xena growing up. It was my favorite show. Anywho, I hope this is helpful and not too much. I don't watch a lot of shows bc i have to balance writing, reading, and watching with real life, so I'd happily recommend others, but I don't know what genres you're into or what you've seen. Catching up on both 911's, if you so choose, would keep you busy for awhile. 😆😌😌

Happy watching!! 💖💖

pls why did tumblr put the pic in such a weird place lol 😭 i was seriously laughing so hard he was really holding it for dear life

omg yes i have !! i love alice in borderland ! i wish it got the same hype as squid game is bc it's so good !! and the games omg 😨 seriously was on the edge of my seat the whole show ! like the bus one was insane :O i hated how they left it on a cliffhanger but i saw its getting renewed for s2 :D i was really obsessed w it when i first watched, i looked up all of the character profiles and how it differed from the manga + future games and the ending but i still have so many unanswered questions 👀

i love psychological thrillers and shows like those ! wbu???

haha yes 😭 txt really made a whole short film lol

yes 😭 i saw those comparisons and how ppl were bringing up what sunwoo said abt the character comparisons to the members and im ready for PAIN 🥲

cinematic mvs >>>>

drink it halloween dance practice would have been spectacular :")

i don't really collect pcs ,,, idk i just get the ones that come w the albums and put them in a lil card organizer lol but i've never traded or bought any wo an album

omg no 😭😭😭 i hate when things sell out so quickly

haha we love that ! they're all so lovable tbh, it's hard to chose a bias 🥺

yeah ! i am a sunwoo enjoyer :D & my bias wrecker has gotta be eric 🙃 he is constantly coming for my throat..heh when did u start stanning?

THE HIGHLIGHT MEDLEY 😭😭😭 WAS SO GOOD ! as soon as the announcer thing came on i was so happy, they're really going all out ! haha omg 😂 maverick is definitely an intense lil song but i feel like i alr love it ! yes the songs all sound so nice n spicy i'm so ready

LMAOOO tumblr putting the pic there makes it even funnier :') died laughing ngl. and ikr borderland was so good, though i feel like it was a little too scary for it to have the hype factor? oh i totally forgot about the bus one until you mentioned it!! yeah that was so intense... omg also the one with the hanging electric pole things with rising water?? oooh i'll have to check out the manga but yeah hopefully s2 gives us all the answers (unless netflix chooses to drag it out... knowing them, that might happen 😭). and YES!! i also love psychological thrillers!!!! not so much straight up horror, but i love suspense and mind games 😍 do you have any faves or recs?

we're all ready for pain :') and at the same time tbz be playing red light green light in such a cute and funny way in their mcountdown teaser?? they're gonna give us whiplash from this :')))

ohh i see, yeah i heard that sunwoo was one of the umm expensive/sold out pc members LOL but i hope you pull him if you do decide to get the album!!!

maknae line!! eric has been... very bold lately so i hope u survive this comeback hehe. i started stanning towards the end of last year!! i was eyeing them during stealer era but their MAMA 2020 performance convinced me 😍 wbu!! and who are ur biases from the other groups you stan?

yeah omg the chanting in maverick is kinda catchy!! i can see myself looping it until i'm numb 🤡 ALSO MV TEASER??? THOUGHTS? i thought the other one counted as mv teaser already so definitely didn't expect this one, but hopefully it's a sign that we're getting like a full on story and plot and everything 🤩

god it's been 20 days already ? and yeah school started for me and honestly, i've been drowning in hw T~T ACK I HAVENT READ HEARTBREAK FOR HIRE YET, i'll try to read it when i find the time to djdjdj.

hm, i think the main reason why i like dream more is that i'm more into their music compared to wayv/127? i'm mainly of a renjun bias but i also bias haechan, jaemin, doyoung & yangyang! for skz it's seungmin ! OH AND I REMEMBER THE SKZ SONG I LIKED!! it was cheese & domino sjbdhd. favorite song off the skz album? but anyways, i think i have a thing for 00' liners DBDHDH. hmm, bloombloom? while thrill ride is really catchy, bloombloom is iconic !

oo probably 2017? there are so many iconic songs that came out at that time ! from dna to red flavor ack i miss that time. and the music they're releasing rn is still pretty good ! although no one can beat wings era, that whole album can have my whole heart !

BDJDHD did they notice you? 0-0 but you didn't have to come for hyunjae's eyesight like that AHHAHA and i heard eric was also one of the participants ? AND AHAH YEAH i used to have such a bad sleeping schedule from sleeping at 5am to waking up at 1pm. although it's been kind of fixed because of school ! but hmm to that courting question, i think i would definitely be awkward at first but honestly, if that person really likes someone and can wait until then, then maybe? how about you? how would you feel if someone courts you? -🐿

!!! omg hiiii ✨💖🌸

it's nice hearing from you again!! hope you're taking care of yourself despite school and all, you got this✨ and it's ok, real life always comes first!! fics will always be here if ya ever need a break tho!

ohhh renjun was my dream bias when i was in my dream phase!! doyoung tho....... his insta may have done wonders for shooting him up ppl's bias lists (mine included). '00 liners eh, do you have a certain type for biases or bias wreckers? i read somewhere that your bias has your personality while your bias wrecker is your ideal type 👀 is that true for you? and seungmin!!! omg did you watch the weekly idol ep where he was reading out that album intro so fast???? he's hilarious. my faves on the skz album are thunderous and red lights!!! AHHHH i got so hyped when red lights came on in the car that i screamed "RED LIGHTS" while my friend was driving and he got so alarmed bc it was actually a green light and then i realized what i had done ALFJSJFHDH. i do really like cheese and domino too though!! 😍 what are your faves? did any of them make it to ur top skz tracks?

oh hmm 2017 eh, yes dna was good!! i personally liked the LY:her era the most of out of the LY series! AND YES wings✨ i guess i'm hoping they'll revisit their old sound at some point instead of just continuing to cater to the western market... but omg did you watch the new txt mv? it reminded me so much of bts's inu/run era mvs :') very nostalgic

and NOOO omg they did not notice me THANKFULLY. (totally caught hyunjae squinting tho LMAOO) eric being there as karson was such a surprise and apparently he was in changmin's room too!! dang your sleep schedule was like,,, just barely worse than mine LOL. hmm as for the courting, maybe it's bc i had it happen to me, but i feel like now i'd be.... bored of it? i tend to like the thrill of uncertainty where we'd just flirt and have fun and see where it goes tho 😅 or ok maybe i'm just bored with my life rn LOOL but i miss experiencing the heart fluttery feelings!!! 😭 but would you feel pressured if you knew someone liked you but you didn't feel the same way back? and would/do you ever have a fear of commitment?

also did you see younghoon's pics with doyeon for his drama? and juyeon for studio choom?!?!?! so many exciting things coming up (*´∇｀*)

#🐿️ anon #hope u have a great week!!! ✨#<333 #ask

Hi! I'm doing alright ☺️ hope your day is going well!

Yeah being the oldest child is stressful sometimes - honestly though I'm glad to be the oldest, I want to be able to set an example of how to be a kind person and also to protect my siblings and look after them when they need it. I don't think I'd switch places even if I could (though I used to wish I had an older sibling to teach me how to do things that I couldn't go to my parents for!)

One of my siblings was actually the one who got me and another sibling into kpop 😂 that first sibling has mostly stuck with Seventeen and Monsta X while the other one and I have branched out quite a bit. Our tastes mostly overlap with a few differences, which is nice - I'm trying to get one or both of them into SF9 but I think it's only going to end up working for the one willing to get into more groups, if it works at all 😔

I got into them after Summer Breeze! They were recommended to me by a friend, though I actually sort of knew about them before because of O Sole Mio which has been one of my favorite songs for ages - I remember looking into them a bit back when Good Guy came out, seeing that MV and the one for Enough, going "meh I don't like their concept, guess O Sole Mio was a one-off" and dismissing them, then hearing RPM (and I think Easy Love as well) and going "huh I like that song" but not putting together that they were the same group... past me why were you so thick-headed............. anyway I watched the Summer Breeze MV and spent the next three days going "WAIT that song was by SF9 too? And that one? And THAT one? Wtf I love all these songs why did I not realize they were all by the same group????" lmao

RPM is I think one of the best albums I've heard! It's why I decided to get that one first - that one and Knights of the Sun are my top two at the moment, though there are still a couple of albums I haven't gotten around to listening all the way through so it might change? They're both so good though, I feel like it would take a lot to dethrone them 🤔

Idk if I've mentioned but I'm Youngbin biased! Pretty much all of them bias wreck me on the regular but I always come back to him, he's just so 🥺 idk I love him very much... I assume your bias is Jaeyoon, but who are your bias wreckers, if you have them?

You skip My Story My Song? Are you one of those people who thinks ballads are boring? (no judgement if you are... well ok maybe a little judgement bc ballads are awesome, but I won't be upset 😂 everyone has their own music taste after all)

from your fantasy friend 💕

how did your day go? what were you up to today?

can you be my older sibling, too?? 😂 i do love caring for my siblings and doting on them but i actually hate the idea of people having to look to me as an example sfdhfhf like i'll notice some of my little brother's mannerisms and im like oh god he learned that from me didn't he 😭💀💀💀

okay but does that first sibling just stan svt & mx but listen to other groups sometimes, or do they purely only listen to svt & mx?? either way they should totally get into sf9 😁😁😁 i hope you're able to make your siblings fantasies!! 🤭🤭

lol thats so funny that was kinda me with svt and tbz?? for svt i heard very nice and loved it but didn't really listen to any of their other stuff til later and I was like oh hey these are those very nice guys! 😂

RPM SUPREMACY 🗣🗣 but yes knights is good too ^^ I haven't listened to it as a whole in a while tbh i should do that soon 😚 which albums have you listened to?

aaaahh binnie!!!! i love him so much hes actually one of my other biases! idk something abt him is just so heartwarming..his smile, his laugh, AH my heart melts just thinking abt him 😭 technically he was one of my first biases but it was before i knew all the members or was interested in stanning so i don't really count it? idk 😂 what matters is hes my bias now <3

but yes jaeyoon is my main bias!! love him to pieces oh he just makes me so happy!!! 🥰 followed very closely by dawon! the two of them are my ults in the group ^^ ♡

and then there's also chani~ idk every time i see him i just ❤!! yknow? 😂😅

and then pretty much everyone takes turns bias wrecking me 😂 most often it's rowoon or inseong,, so yeah i totally get it's hard to have a bias in sf9 😂😂

nooo i LOVE a lot of ballads in fact I think MSMS is my fave of sf9's! it's just that the rest of the album is so HYPE and then you get to end and it's like.. idk i just really wish i could get a album thats 100% energetic songs and no ballad/slow song 💀💀 RPM is perfect tho bc like i said before i just feel like the songs go together 😚😚

#love no. 5 & msms should trade places tbh #actually SCREAM yeah seriously if love no 5 was on 9loryUS thatd be my favorite album hands down skgsksh #and forever sounds like it could pass being on rpm. a little.#asks #fantasy friend 💙
