Aaaah! Caff!! You're the best and I love you!!
Okayokayokay I got a couple of these so I'm gonna split up the answers into two different answers, otherwise this answer is going to be the size of a treatise and that's just too long.
Still going under the cut though. I love you!!!
— How long have you been writing fanfiction?
A crazy long time, but I only just started publishing in earnest. I think I had a few anime fanfics on FF.Net that I have since deleted from my early middle school era. Then undergrad in the Dragon Age fandom, and now here since 2021!
— Do you have a favorite word? (One that you love. Doesn’t necessarily have to be one you use all the time.
Honestly, probably Fuck, considering how often I swear at myself while writing.
— Share a favorite run-on sentence that you’ve written.
The woods are death still and silent and Eliza-Anne Tucker — who, as you know, was a good Godly woman who knew all about the demons and haints in these here woods — watches the shadow-witch open her featureless mouth and screams and screams and when the Pennsylvania State Troopers come down to the clearing to investigate why they got about twenty-seven anonymous 911 calls in as many minutes about a cryin’-baby-that-definitely-wasn’t-no-goddamn-fox they find Jane Doe and her baby asleep in a clearing about three feet from the woods.
— Dead Trees Like Lavender Fields Chapter 1: Dirt Always Tells
I love this line because it's just so goddamn atmospheric. I had so much fun writing that scene from the chapter, it's one of my favorite scene-setters I've ever written.
— Share a bit of a scene that you’ve written that still gives you FEELS.
In a way, you almost should have known this would happen — just as Icarus himself so loved the freedom of his wings and the warmth of the sun upon them that he flew too close and fell to his death, the act of loving Ikaris has burned you alive, hasn’t it?
Immortality, you know — have known, long before he broke his way into your life — is a curse. He has seen so much, grappled with Gods and Monsters, shaped the very humanity you are afflicted with. How can he see your pain properly, viewed from so high above, so aware of the whole scope of humanity, unbothered by your mundane troubles? Small things to a giant, the rough edges of this unforgiving universe are… nothing.
But you, mortal you, a microscopic blip in the scope of human history, wrapped in the constant daily stressors of your ephemeral life. To see the world through your eyes is to magnify his view a thousandfold and even the smoothest of surfaces are a mountain range of jagged peaks reaching up to the sky when viewed from up close.
To love a God is to know he was never truly yours, no matter how many promises he makes of himself — fealty and fidelity and faith — or how many ways you want to believe him. Never yours, but in the moments your life and his coincide, you are his.
The weight of truth is a heavy, heartless thing, sinking into the bliss of new love slowly, burning away the hazy edge of infatuation to bring about clear realization. A hand of ice and stone emerges from the ocean floor and truth emerges from the well of his mouth to shame you both for having the very audacity to think that you could.
A thousand lives born from every single one lost — it seemed like such a fair exchange at the time, he tells you, barely able to meet the pained betrayal in your gaze. He almost makes it sound so reasonable.
What is the cost of a life, what is worth the weight of all your memories, is it a thousand lives scattered across a thousand different worlds, a consciousness split across many infinite light years? What is the price you would pay to erase all your pain in conjunction with your pleasures, all for the chance to maybe be reborn on a world guided by kinder Gods?
So all of this, all of human progress was … priming us to be cattle, it is not a question, merely a truth, a shameful reality you are forced to face, Then what was I? There. A selfish question — but then again, what are humans but inherently selfish, occupied by their own survival first? What are you too, but a tangle of traumas desperate to be seen as yourself and loved for it all the same.
You… How can he answer that, what answer can he give to that, when the truth cannot be softened, cannot be smoothed over? You would have been my greatest regret to lose.
On television, a reporter speculates aloud on the investigation into the dormant behemoth that might have borne any number of new utopias and before you, the Eternal who once never questioned the cost holds back tears.
It’s a tragedy you failed.
— For Blue Skies
This scene is another one of those moments where I watched a movie, had a breakdown, and then proceeded to spend entirely too many days writing angsty fic about it. It's one of those moments where I came to terms with a lot of things, and also wrote an angst indictment of those who can but do not.
— What is your favorite kind of character interaction to write?
Banter. I love a scene where the characters are just... talking. Trading barbs back and forth, teasing one another. It's all very Sorkin-esque, that back-and-forth that either leads to animosity or a sort of begrudging felicity.
— Do you have a hyper-specific genre?
Gothic Horror, I think! I'm learning I love anything atmospheric, scenic, diving into the eldritch and the unknown, soft, slow reveals and the futile attempt to describe the indescribable.
— Any personal or frequently used tags?
Hmmhmm... A lot, I think! I'm not entirely sure how to answer this, but I know I tag for trauma a lot, as I write for catharsis more than anything.
— Share a joke or funny moment that you’ve written that still makes you laugh.
Ari Levinson looks half-wild as you let him in, glancing outside briefly to see the flayed figure of your most recent unwanted visitor still seated mutely on the porch, cornbread rotted to dust and Goatrude holding him at bay. The Agent either doesn’t notice or doesn’t care, eyes fixed on you instead, You got a gun?
Got a gu— the hell sorta shit are you up to, Levinson?!
His lips curl back from his teeth in a sort of grimace before he turns, glancing out your front windows and then back at you, You know you have a skinless corpse on your porch?
Oh, so he noticed.
I’ve been trynna ignore it. That’s besides the point, the fuck are you doing out here and why do I need a gun?!
Personal protection, why else? There’s two dead bodies less than ten miles out from your property, Doc, or did you not notice?
The point. You need him to get to the point, and you might actually kill him if he doesn’t, arms crossed over your chest and trying not to let your scowl get too deep. Please don’t tell me you came all the way over to my house just to tell me to use protection.
— A Worthy Grave Chapter 1: Everybody Dies Alone
This is what I mean about banter. Ari and Doc may be my favorite couple I've written thus far because they are just funny as hell in my head when I get into their character-space.
— Best editing tip?
Step back. Take a day or two. Don't hesitate to rewrite your entire fic in a new window, you'll catch things as you retype and realize maybe you need to move stuff around or maybe you made a whole lot of nonsense typos. Read your work aloud if you want to capture a specific kind of voice. And most of all: this is for fun and grammar is a construct.
— What drives you to write?
I have so many stories I want to tell, scene and dynamics I want to explore. I love worldbuilding, love sharing my daydreams in the form of written work. For me, writing is a form of self-care.
— Share something about your writing that you have wished someone would ask you about. Or alternatively, something that you are just really proud of.
Honestly! I'm just really proud of how far I've come in being comfortable sharing my writing, and talking to others about their brilliant works. I used to hide my fics in notebooks that I'd later burn but nowadays I've been feeling more confident in what I'm doing and less panicky.
— Where do you draw inspiration?
Extant media! I love listening to podcasts, watching shows, finding worlds I can dive into. As much as I love worldbuilding when I write fic, I like building off extant worlds more, making them my own. I also draw inspiration from my own personal life, because I view writing as a form of therapy and catharsis, and so my experiences become a font of emotion for me to draw from in order to release those emotions I have pent up.
— What is your immediate reaction when you receive a new comment on a fic?
Generally? Panic, excitement, a whole lot of squeeing and face-tapping, and then smashing out a frantic and loving reply because every new comment I get fills me with joy.
— What is your biggest challenge in writing?
Finding the energy. Between work and personal life, I often find myself burnt out and struggling to put words on the page. It doesn't help that my waning creative energy means aggressive writer's block and a hyper-perfectionist mentality that is normally more detrimental than not. I struggle to remind myself that good enough is fine, nothing needs to be to my standards of perfect because I will always find a flaw in what I create.
— 1-2 sentence preview from your current WIP??
Problem is, you’re tired. You’re bone-tired, strippin’ your workboots off your feet and looking at the stove like it’s personally insulted you and your momma for daring to not have a hot meal cooked already, before deciding that — as much as your momma would’ve scolded you for it — your “emergency” tin of Pillsbury would do just fine for biscuits and jam.
She might’ve thought “air fryers” were all manner of scam put on Earth to keep people from understanding the magic of a good goddamn buttermilk biscuit, but she didn’t just spend the whole damn night listenin’ to Ari Levinson lie unconvincingly through his too-perfect teeth.
— I know you can guess which WIP this is 😏
— What story or scene are you most proud of?
I think I'm proudest of The Cut still. It's the one that has the most of "me" in it, with the happiest ending, and really it's the one I feel the most comfortable re-reading.
— Please link your profile so we can admire your works!
Aaaaah! The Masterlist!
