#kinda wanna write fanfiction with mom

I just told mom about some bits of Danny Phantom lore and it basically went like this:
Me: So, this kid goes into his mad scientists parents' portal, activates it, sorta dies and instantly resurrects as a half ghost.
Mom, terrified: Poor mother.
Me: Nah, his parents didn't actually notice, they're kinda negligent, too invested into their work.
Mom, more terrified: Poor children.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
For as long as you could remember you always had Mr. Bun-Bun with you. He was your emotional support animal, kinda. He was there for you when you had to get a haircut because gum was in your hair, twisted your ankle, and when your Dad died.
But some people at school found it weird that you were still so attached to your stuffed and were not shy about making their opinions known to you.
“Where’s Mr. Bun-Bun?” Miles asked you as he picked you up from school.
“Oh, um I didn’t bring him today,” you responded quickly and took his hand.
He looks down at you with a raised eyebrow, “Why not? He's dirty or somethin’?”
You shake your head, “No I just felt like leaving him. That's all.”
He looks down at you with suspicion, “And that's all? No other reason?”
Anger rises in you at the continued questioning. Why couldn't he just drop it? That stubbornness was annoying quality of his. You dropped his hand and walked a few steps in front of him.
“Oh so now you wanna be like that?” Miles asks and you could hear the laughter in his voice.
You get lifted in the air not long after and twirled around all over the place. You stumble a little when he places you on the ground from all the spinning. You couldn’t stop laughing though.
And this is why you love your brother so much. Even when you were just angry at him, he still somehow made you laugh till your face and stomach hurt.
“Now, you gonna tell me what got you frowning like that?” He asked you. “I’ll buy you a whole pint of strawberry ice cream if you tell me.”
Now this had gotten your attention, you swore you could already taste the strawberry icecream. And would it be so bad to tell Miles? If you do then maybe the kids would stop.
“Okay, well some kids at school are being pretty mean to me,” admitted.
Miles went down on his knees so you guys were at eye level, “Mean how?”
“Like they would call me names and stuff because I still carry Mr. Bun-Bun around. They say I’m a baby.” You told him and sniffed a bit. It was painful to talk about but this is Miles, your big brother. He would protect you.
“How long has this been going on?” He asked.
“Um for a month I think. It’s fuzzy.” You responded.
He wraps you in a hug and puts his head on top of yours, “Okay, it’s gonna be all okay, all right. Now listen up, number one, you should’ve told me this when they first started being mean to you.”
He breaks the hug and makes you look into his eyes (did he always have that tired look in his eyes?), “I will fix this okay. I’ll tell Uncle Aaron and Mom about this and they will get this all situated.”
You nod your head along to what he was saying, you were starting to feel better about the situation with the promise that it will end.
“And one more thing,” he continued, “do not let anyone tell you how to live your life, you hear me? Because at the end of the day, you will have to live with the consequences of your actions, not them.”
You nod along to his words, understanding the gravity of them. You were still hungry though, “Can I get my ice cream now?”
Miles’ eyes widened and he gives you a surprised laugh, “You truly are something else you know that?” But he he grabs your hand and takes you to the grocery store anyway.
He truly is the best big brother you could’ve ever asked for.

The downside of writing smut is how I'm super proud of my work and starting off Patreon. I wanna tell my mom how my Patreon is taking off, because it's the coolest thing ever. But I don't wanna tell my mom how I'm earning money through fanfiction.
It kinda feels like saying "Mom, I started working in the porn industry."

4, 5, 7, 14 for the Outaiders ask!!!
thank you sm for the questions 😭 I got kinda worried no one's gonna ask me I'M SORRY FOR THIS TAKING SO LONG I forgot and then I got sick and
4. rank the main 7.
1) dallas. no explanation I just noticed I write and think about him the most
2) johnny. love my boy I wanna squish him.
3) ponyboy (he's my highest kinn how could I not)
4) darry
5) soda
6) two bit
7) steve
wasn't sure about anything starting off ponyboy
5. what are your favorite ships?
obv jally you give me a dramatic unresolved tension gay ship I eat that up
love stevepop (whatever is the name of it) too tho and I don't really know why guess I just feel like they would have that kind of relationship when you're obv not friends anymore but not dating yet because no one is smart enough to admit their feelings
I also like curly/pony. again no explanation and I didn't get into it at first cause we don't know much about curly but after reading a few fanfiction I can kinda see the vision...
7. what are your fave non-romantic relationships?
I don't really see johnny&ponyboy in romantic relationship, and much more like besties. love their friendship sm and wish I could have one like theirs 😭😭 they're comfortable with sticking together and understand each other on the other kind of level
LOVE CURTIS BROTHERS THEY'RE SOO FUCKING DEAR TO ME the conflict between darry and pony did something unexplainable to my heart. I was bawling my eyes out each time I saw that hospital reunion scene. I guess that's because it's the situation where I can relate both to ponyboy and darry, as a single mom's older child, and an older sibling.
I like the two-bit&marcia dynamic and maybe as romantic too but I'm not sure enough
I also like Tim/Dally as friends, I like the idea of them beating each other to death and being best buddies the next day, it's kinda funny. I just know damn well they're sick of each other but in a good way
14. telll us five headcanons you basically see as canon
this one is going to be kinda tough...
1) dally being a pale ass bitch and burning under the sun in five minutes in summer (whoever wrote about this, thank you)
2) curly sneaking in curtis' house at night through pony's window and scaring the shit out of him
3) if pony would ever leave Tulsa, he would move somewhere to the north, Illinois or Michigan maybe. (I just came up with it, but he would cause I live in michigan.) he would regret it because it's much colder in winter there than in oklahoma. he loves the nature though.
I couldn't think of anything else sorry 😭😭

question question. okay first I'm obsessed with your beyburst art because I cannot draw for my life I just lovingly write little fanfictions for them ANYWAY
where are you watching beyburst??? bc I'm assuming you're watching the japanese version since you use daina, xhaka, beyburst god, etc but I can only find English (on Disney lmao) without getting the "hot moms in ur area" HAHA
SORRY IVE BEEN STALKING YOU A TINY BIT CAUSE YOUR ART IS SO COOL
haii ! tysm this is so sweet dis shit got me blushing 🤭🤭
fun fact i’ve been into beyburst for the last 6 years and have been using their jpn names for that time but i havent watched the sub until fairly recently LMAO
as for where i watch it, i pretty much use whatever anime site i can access lol since they tend to get shut down, so just feel free to dm me for the link im currently using rn ! i dont wanna publicize 🏴‍☠️ sites ykyk
the ads ARE pretty crazy (esp if u use ur phone to watch) so if you could, i’d definitely recommend using an adblocker
my beige flag is that i havent watched past god haha but all the burst seasons have been subbed !
fun fact 2 (how many fun facts can a guy fit in one short post ?) when i originally rewatched beyburst god in december 2022 the sub wasn’t finished (see photo below lol) but i went back to factcheck that info and i guess it got translated between then and now !? i literally JUST found this out rn im actually going kinda crazy abt it i cant believe im so behind that i didnt know abt this ^_^’ (i will definitely be rewatching it again haha :3)
happy watching !

Invitation to Writers!!
Hey you! Yeah, YOU, random writer reading this! Even if you haven't ever written or have been brainstorming something but never wrote a word of it! Time to get projects out of the mind and into paper!
(I don't care if you write fanfic, or novels, original work, brainstorms, I'M STILL TALKING TO YOU ^^)
Last year, I participated on NaNoWriMo - basically a platform where you add other writers, set a goal of how many words you wanna write in a month, and everyone can support each other and see how much progress you're doing! - and managed to write 100 pages of the book I've been brainstorming!
They're having NaNoWriMo Camp now in July, and I'm going to participate again! I want to finish my book this year still, so I'm trying to fit writing at least a bit every day until it's done - and having some people around in NaNoWriMo kinda helped me a lot!
I'm pretty much a lonely writer, I don't have anyone to talk about the stories I'm developing or sharing my goals and accomplishments - aside from my mom, but I don't tell her MUCH in detail, so yeah - and I remember having a small group of people updating their goals kept me motivated enough to write said 100 pages in a month.
So, if you think this is interesting, and you want to write more in July, you can set a goal as small as 100 words and get to work there! I'm gonna leave my link on NaNoWriMo so you can friend me and perhaps we can keep each other motivated during our writing processess!
And again, if you want to write a small 2 pages scene, or a whole 500 pages original fantasy RPG worthy story, or some fanfiction imagines, it's all valid!!
Feel free to add me, and I hope we can all finish our writing projects!
(You just click the link above to find me, or this one: polarisdelphi NaNoWriMo profile)
Hope to see you there!!

Doctor Elise Ep. 5
| Ep 1 | Ep 2 | Ep 3-4 |
Nuuuuuu I'm finally caught up with Doctor Elise.... My potato chips....
This was a very fun (Mary Sue (positive)) Girl Boss episode, with Elise taking proud ownership of what she did despite being disbelieved, and keeping things professional between her and her patient.
This Prince y'all. He don't know shit about romance. He's never had the inclination to even bother with romance before, and watching his little baby-deer-leg-like attempts is very very cute. It's very fun to be watching this and the BL/yaoi Cherry Magic at the same time because man they are two sides of the same coin in playing with tropes and dealing with power imbalance in romance.
Tumblr media
THIS show could be a yaoi if it WASN'T A COWARD.
I am enjoying this show SO MUCH because I (am old) enjoyed watching Dr. House, Scrubs, Grey's Anatomy, and the autopsy/sciencey bits in CSI:LV and NCIS (with Abby!)
Capybara is enjoying this because he is a connoisseur of well researched fanfiction, with Sick Fic being one of his main staples. He has learned to recognize certain illnesses because some of his favorite authors do a shit ton of research on what to do to their whumpees darlings, and those well researched stories don't go with boring reasons for why certain symptoms are appearing, but more realistic diagnostics.
He was very excited at guessing what was wrong with each patient in these episode and it was fun to watch him get excited about it.
Spoilers Under the Cut
Elise defending and explaining her report about the Splenectomy was funny because... her hand writing was such an issue, but despite all the little hearts and the poor writing that is OBVIOUSLY not Dr. Graham, they still have trouble believing it's hers until she can walk them through the report.
Tumblr media
MORE HAND WAVING WITH THE "I turned this surgery over and over in my head" (more like she already did a successful one with the Dead Mom Hair lady) Its just barely believable, but it marks her as a literal genius, and actually makes for a good story if she WAS an actual medical genius.
Tumblr media
HMM I WONDER WHY THE TEST IS GOING TO BE HARDER THIS YEAR??? Fuck all the other students, we wanna make this lady fail so she can be queen! But she has 3 doctor reccs to be able to take the medical exam!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And another doctor immediately tries to steal her with NO consideration for the Head of the Hospital and Head of Surgery being RIGHT THERE IN THE ROOM WITH THEM. No subtly this man, which makes sense if he CANT EVEN RECOGNIZE ONE OF HIS REGULAR PATIENTS!!!! FAILURE.
Tumblr media
This No-Thoughts-Head-Empty Just Having A Good Time face is so funny to me.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then we get some more reminiscent of the backstory, and I'm okay with this being a little Mary Sue -ish type tragic backstory cause she kinda deserved it, admits she deserved it, and is trying to make amends (because she wasn't THAT evil of a villainess, just an ignorant and spoiled rich kid).
Tumblr media
But the Prince finally admitted something was wrong with himself and goes to the clinic to get himself checked out by Elise/Rose while he is in his Ron disguise. He finds her pulling ivy off the buildings, and MAN the initial angle on this made it look like she was two stories up (so I started chanting fall, fall, fall so that you can get caught).
Tumblr media
but no, she's on a fucking step stool lmao.
We DO get a classic "Staring at each other from across the way as the wind blows and their eyes meet and they have Thoughts."
Tumblr media
She then proceeds to diagnose him and Capybara started chanting "Hyper thyroidism? Hyperthyroidism." as each symptom and question is answered
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and dammit he was RIGHT!!!
AND OH. I WAS WRONG. YES. GOOD.
THIS SHOW IS A YAOI AND ELISE IS THE SEME.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
LOOK AT THIS BLUSHING MESS OF AN UKE. She's taking your PULSE, sir, not your CLOTHES OFF.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And he keeps coming back for more lmao. And is SO UPSET when the two months are up. But is probably like HELL YES I GET TO MARRY THIS LADY. maybe. the thought probably hasn't occured to him actually now that I think about it...
Until he goes to her BROTHER for advice on what to get her, and despite being the grumpy big bro IS SO ACCURATE IN HIS ADVICE. But the Prince thinks he knows best (with ZERO experience, like, what did you even ask him for then?) and gets her a shiny thing instead and fails.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's all worth it though cause Babygirlboy prince smiles in the end!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
R E W A R D GET
I want more potato chips. Please let next week come soon so I can have more potato chips anime. Please.

Thank you @lovely-menza for tagging me <3 This is the first time I'm doing such a post, as in, answering for questions in the post, without it being an ask game, so let's roll with it!
Are you named after anyone? Nope, my mom just heard the name on a party one day and she loved it ever since. And that's why I am named how I am named
When was the last time you cried? In the last year, quite a few months ago. It was connected with being laughed at by a close person due to him being after one beer and him not being able to drink at his age. And let's leave it at that
Do you have kids? Nope, but I would like to, if I find a good guy. I mean, I don't want a random weirdo or a creep in my life. I'm either getting a good guy or I'm living alone, without a care - I mean I have music...
Do you use sarcasm a lot? Only when i'm joking. Other than that, I'm brutally honest
What's the first thing you notice about people? Their eyes or smile. It's usually the eyes though. You can fake a smile, be more kinder with it, if you intend to do so. But eyes? You can't hide anything behind them. If you have bad intentions, it is shown in the way you look at someone. I usually am looking in the eyes when speaking to someone and when they speak to me I do the same. Let me tell you one thing - you can get scared shitless when you hear kind words and the person's eyes shine in a very bad way and you know they have bad intentions. I like to know if I'm safe or not
What's your eye colour? They are hazel. Once blue, the other time green, some other time gray blue or gray entirely or kinda white if I feel ill. Mom says that I usually have gray eyes when I'm very sleepy
Scary movies or happy endings? Happy endings. I like to see the adventure presented in the media I'm watching have a good ending. Additional point if I like the characters! Then it's double the fun to see them happy at the very end
Any special talents? Maybe it's not a special talent, but I can hear wrong notes in a song very often, catch the rhythm of the song - oh boy, if it's changing during the song then I have so much fun with listening to it! - and memorize the entire melody if I hear the song a lot of times. I literally sometimes sit and play the entire song in my head if it's too quiet. I did that on the last test on statistics! Hehe, silence in class and I was listening to Scars on Broadway in my head while counting - got an A, that proves something XD
Where were you born? Poland! I'm still living there and I don't plan on moving somewhere else - maybe to another city, but then again I don't wanna leave my parents behind so yeah (a little bit of babbling :3)
What are your hobbies? Listening to music, playing on guitar - I started playing in July in 2022, I'm not very good at it yet, but I have a lot of fun! - and maybe writing from time to time some fanfiction. I like creating ocs ^u^
Have you any pets? Yes, a female canary. She's my lovely orb of feathers, who has almost the same music taste as mine - oh GOD, I played "Alabama Song (Whisky Bar)" by The Doors yesterday on my phone to quickly clean and come back to watching a tv series. The feathery orb sung so loudly along with Jim Morrison and the rest! I wasn't expecting her to give such a bright concert ;u;
What sports do you play/have played? None, I am the person who hated sports XD
How tall are you? 162/164 cm I believe? I am fairly short
Favourite subject in school? Polish lessons. They were fun, despite that some of the school readings were boring. But I could listen to so much stories about the society in the past ages. This was interesting!
Dream job? Working in a library - I'm working hard to get to that goal
Tag 15 people... Let's see if I have so much mutuals XD @furiousbirdballoon @juliearchery107 @jimmysdragonsuit13 @malakianwhvre @explodingegg123 @itsdareeeh @cantag-curtis @diedeadenovgh @circle-bircle @w0rldl0ngg0ne That's all I can think of at the moment. If anyone stumbles upon this post and wants to join, feel free <3 The rest of tagged people? Join the fun if you want :3

Funny how things work out. With this video comes the story of how Frenchie became a songwriter: Once upon a time, I was in the Redacted Records Discord server (now Wonderworld) where I mostly just kinda hung out and lurked and occasionally took part in hcs and video discussion. I had an idea for a fic back in October of 2021 but didn't have a chance to write it until my winter break. (Prior to that, I had written a bunch of fanfiction in notebooks for various fandoms but never published any.) Once I posted that, it got me going on fic writing, which included an Avior comfort fic about being accepting about the sound of your voice. Deciding to put my money where my mouth was, I posted a recording I had made of me singing some pop song in the server. With that, I became friends with the IRL empathy daemon/unicorn/angel known as "Jess". We started to collaborate on a song she had written, but then she shared with me three lullabies she had written for Redacted characters (Avior @ Starlight, Sam @ Darlin, and Asher's mom @ Asher). And then she encouraged me to write one, too.
"But I don't write lyrics." I've been a musician for over 2/3 of my life, including professionally (as side hustles), but I don't have a lot of formal music education. But the very next day (January 9, 2022), I threw this little song together. It wasn't the first one I shared with everybody, and it's only now making it's way onto YouTube (because it's Greer Family Hours I guess?). 65 songs later...
P.S. @obsessivedino Do you have anything you wanna share with the rest of the class?

i dont have any separate blog for shitposts and rants or interaction with friends so expect that all here. i like to think i'm a pretty friendly person (at least online) so feel free to talk to me anytime!
i write for many fandoms, including, harry potter, stranger things, the 100, and bridgerton. expect more to be added as i get invested in more and more shows and movies.
original ideas are hard, i get that completely. and sometimes you don't remember exactly where you got the idea from, which is completely fine. i do not expect any credit to be given if i inspire your writing, that's just part of the process. as long as you're not blatantly stealing anything, we don't have any problems.
if you would like to translate my work or post it somewhere else, please message me. i'm pretty chill so don't feel threatened or anything. if you find my work good or interesting and would like it to reach others, just make sure to get my WRITTEN permission and CREDIT ME!! if you don't, you will be reported and blocked. i may be chill but i DO NOT tolerate plagiarism, it is ILLEGAL!!
if you have any complaints or concerns, please feel free to message me or send me an ask as long as you're not rude about it. i'm always looking for ways i can improve, whether that be in my writing or as a person. i love getting feedback, it really helps me learn and grow
i will never be one of those blogs that block people if they spam like bc i understand that there are blogs that don't wanna have any posts on their blog or they're ashamed they're reading fanfiction or it just doesn't match what they talk about on their blog. and i do appreciate likes because it shows me what y'all like and if i should continue making something or writing about a certain character. i also appreciate the few reblogs i do get because it really helps with the algorithm, so thank you <3

i hate the feeling of velvet and felt, i feel physically sick when touching it. its basically like nails on a chalkboard.
i have a cat named oreo, who i am convinced is a velociraptor in disguise (velociraptors can open doors, that's why). She likes to open my door with her mind powers and/or knock on it and scream at me till i open it.
i love frogs and rats so so much, i really want them as pets (which is kinda hard with a cat so im probably gonna get them when i move out).
i have an "irrational" fear of spiders. every time i see one i either scream for someone to kill it, hyperventilate, or cry. my mom gets pissed at me for asking her to kill them
i've been biting my nails since before i even had a developed memory. my therapist thinks its from past anxiety that's become a habit.
i have a depression and anxiety, i also have a hard time paying attention and tend to fidget with things (usually cracking my knuckles)
i have issues with confrontation, most likely caused by ptsd (according to my therapist). i usually cry when someone yells at me or looks like they're gonna hit me (unless i started the fight and it's with someone that's either younger than me or shorter than me)
i have a tendency to focus on my insecurities for too long and begin to think i'm unloveable, which is no one's fault, i'm just a dumbass.
Tumblr media
i love every single one of you to the moon and back, nothing will change my mind.

hey so i know the whole point of writing self insert fanfiction is to literally have the reader picture themselves in it but sometimes i can't help but pick a fc for y/n and stuff, and i was wondering if you have any fcs for y/n and her parents and brothers in cherry bomb? i'm obsessed with this family omggg
Okay so I actually spent so much time trying to be vague with my descriptions of the family that I really don’t have any specific fcs! Like I was so actively avoiding thinking about physical features that I don’t even have any headcanons 😂 HOWEVER I can offer you some things
I like to think this is what reader was wearing at the Halloween party:
Tumblr media
And this is the barracuda obviously:
Tumblr media
And I can offer vibes! I really wanted to make it so that the family felt very realistic but could also (hopefully) be really flexible in terms of physical looks/race/etc. I wanted everybody to be able to relate as much as possible while still giving the reader a very set personality and I hope I achieved that!
When I decided to have the reader’s mom use crutches, these are the kind I meant (I couldn’t find exactly what they would’ve looked like in the 80s but I imagine it’s basically the same lol)
Tumblr media
In part one I just sorta threw in that she doesn’t drive anymore because I felt like there should have been a good reason that reader is allowed to drive that car. I wanted it to be more than just a main character kind of thing, and I also felt like including something like that would make it feel a lot more realistic. I also left that really vague, though, because I personally don’t have much experience with any of the many reasons someone might use crutches and not drive, so I decided to keep it within Billy’s POV where he doesn’t actually know, and he really doesn’t care because to him the name/cause isn’t as important lol. I also wanted to include it because the world is diverse and in my opinion fics should be too!
The reader’s brothers and dad are all big dudes. The dad not as much, like he’s still a big guy but not AS big. It’s definitely one of those things where their mom is like, a smaller lady, and all of her sons absolutely tower over her but respect her so much because she’s a great mom who deserves it. And reader is…whatever height you wanna be! It would make sense to be more mom’s height or tall like the boys, petite like mom or thicker or all muscle or not so much or whatever in between! I know I keep talking about this, but it’s because I’m proud of how I managed the descriptions!
Here’s the kinda vibes I pictured for the reader’s parents though:
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
And while I was trying to find some vibes for the brothers I found this and laughed really hard and gave up so please enjoy
Tumblr media
I would love to see any FCs or thoughts that readers have though!!! Cherry bomb is kind of my baby and I will talk about it all day lol

Not to derail your Sky posting but I just wanna say that your response about what it’s like having siblings really sent me reeling. Like you have someone your age you can talk to about your interests at all times?? Like…you don’t have to deal with making up for a generational gap like with your parents? And if you want to play with someone or hang out with them you just…can? No agonizing over arranging times and locations to meet??? Idk why I never thought about it like that before but it kinda messed with my head…the way my dad talks about his siblings makes it sound like they all kinda did their own thing and my mom had absolute nightmare siblings so I was always like eh I’m good but now…hmmm…
(Sorry for the rant lol)
Yeah, it’s definitely nice having people to hang out and talk with, but sometimes we do get sick of each other. Also the talking about interests thing? ...that one is sorta complicated.
I’ll use zelda as an example. Because like, my closest sister is only a year and a half younger than me, (sometimes people think we’re twins actually) but she doesn’t really like Zelda too much so I don’t go to her for that. My sister who’s three years younger than me was/is basically my best friend, we’re both the creative type (who both write fanfiction but only half admit it to each other), and sometimes we talk zelda, but it’s still not her favorite.
My older brother who’s two years older than me can answer pretty much any video game question I’ve got, he’s like a walking encyclopedia on all sorts of things... but he doesn’t appreciate the lore and characters/story as much. My older sister is married so I don’t really get to hang out with her much anymore, which I miss, because we always used to talk video games (she never got into zelda though, so that’s another thing). My oldest brother is on the autism spectrum (several of us are actually) and I love him, but I can’t really talk to him, you know? And he’s not interested in zelda either.
And then the younger bunch it’s like, I’m the older sister, I’m the mom, I’m the babysitter, I’m the substitute teacher, I break up the arguments, they listen to me, they ignore me, I can’t make them do anything, they take every word I say seriously, my brother begs me to play on the Wii with him, my other brother is a know-it-all but he loves hearing what I know, my sister is always up in my face, and my other sister loves zelda almost as much as I do but there’s that gap because I’m almost ten years older than her. They all like Zelda well enough, but none of them are into it, you know?
So I always have people to talk to. But not necessarily about the things I want to talk about? It’s kinda part of why I made this blog(s) actually, to talk about my interests to people who are definitely also interested in them

Writer asks for a Tuesday night! How about: 10, 19, 35
it is wednesday morning where i am at! thank you for sending these, and sorry if the answers are a little long haha
10. has a piece of writing ever “haunted” you? has your own writing haunted you? what does that mean to you?
Everything I’ve promised to write a sequel/follow up to and then never did haunts me lmao. I feel bad about saying I’d write stuff and then never did it, but like, I just have a lot of stuff I wanna write and I prioritize based on inspiration.
But if you mean, like, stuck with me in some powerful way that has a slightly negative connotation. Uh, no nothing really comes to mind tbh
19. tell me a story about your writing journey. when did you start? why did you start? were there bumps along the way? where are you now and where are you going?
Reading was a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. My mom claims I was reading full-length chapter books by kindergarten, and my school records/teacher comments on report cards definitely support her claims that I was ahead for my age. I could definitely read proficiently by kindergarten, but I’m pretty sure the full-length chapter books thing is more likely a proud mom bragging.
I loved reading as a kid. Novels, poetry, fanfiction (the first fandom I can remember reading for is the early 2000s Teen Titans series), picture books, the Bible, graphic novels/comics, a bird watching encyclopedia my sister owned, literally everything I could get my hands on, I would read. Definitely didn’t understand a lot of what I read, and I’m sure there are plenty of things I shouldn’t have been reading haha.
In sixth grade, I remember having an English teacher that absolutely hated me. I read ahead in the required readings and she threatened to give me extra work if I kept doing that. When I asked her if I could have the extra work, she thought I was being a little shit by calling out her bluff for work she definitely didn’t have prepared to give me and threatened to fail me instead if I kept reading ahead. We had several incidents like this throughout her year teaching me.
Needless to say, I fell a little out of love with reading for a while and honed a passion for science/math instead because of some really good experiences I had with those teachers.
So throughout middle school, I was just pretty much not interested in reading/writing at all anymore, and it wasn’t until freshman year of high school that I re-discovered my love for fanfiction. It was some horror movie that I can’t even recall the name of anymore, but I burnt through all the fanfic available for it in no time flat. It inspired me to write and I worked on original fiction for a little while.
Got about 10k into the first draft of some horror something or other, gave up, rewrote it, got about 20k in that time, and then kinda abandoned the thing. By then it had been a year and that was the only thing I had worked on.
I went back to fanfics after that, reading a lot instead of writing, falling in love with whump, and bouncing around quite a few different fandoms before I finally settled in with MacGyver, which I’ve always found weird since it’s so out of my usual genre. But between the copious amounts of whump fic, the appeal to my science loving heart, and the amazing people in this fandom, I’m very happy that this is where I’m at right now.
2020, senior year of high school, was when I honestly got back into writing, wanting to participate in whumptober that year. I put out a handful of fics and have been writing MacGyver fics since. They’re not all amazing, and a lot of what I write I keep for myself because I’m still learning. Even though I wrote some stuff back in high school, I feel like I’m very new to writing and that a lot of what I create doesn’t need to be put out there, you know? That it can just be something that exists and that I’m proud of and that I was able to finish just for myself.
Right now, I don’t have any plans for original fiction to be honest, I’m not at a point where I care about writing enough to put that much energy into something I doubt I’ll finish. So for now, I’m just planning on enjoying writing fanfic as a hobby.
Maybe eventually I’ll reignite that love I had for reading and create something of my own, but honestly, I won’t be heartbroken if I never do.
35. what’s your favorite writing rule to smash into smithereens?
“Write every day”
I think that this advice as a blanket statement is nnnnnnot great. It always comes off New Years resolution-y to me.
You know how people will go ‘I’m gonna work out more this year!’ they go to the gym like twice, and then give up because ‘work out more’ is not a clear goal? Yeah, that. Someone who sets out to work out 3 days a week is more likely to succeed than someone who sets out to ‘work out more’ you know?
I just think ‘write every day’ is vague and unhelpful. Write X amount of words each week seems like something that is more doable, and allows for those inevitable slip-ups that get in the way of writing since it’s not X words every day. It’s a larger goal that has a deadline you can get to however works best with your schedule.

hey! happy (early) birthday! i love getting to know the little things about people. so...
what’s your favorite color? favorite food? favorite band/artist/music genre? do you collect anything? what’s your favorite fanfic you’ve written and/or read? (hetalia or anything else) how long have you been writing?
no pressure to answer all or any😊 just throwing some stuff out there
Thanks! 😊 And thanks for taking the time to ask! I love the enthusiasm here. Lol. (I'm very sorry that this answer is so long. You hit a couple of good questions that I went off on. 🤪🤣)
My fave color is blue -- like, pretty much every shade except navy and that area. I don't really have a fave food? I can't cook worth shit so I kinda just have go-to things that I like. Lmao. I'm worthless there.
Ok ok. Imma go off on my music. I have no specific fave genre because I'm generally hella picky and eclectic so attempting to narrow it down is a waste of time. If I were to play everything I have on my mp3 (yes, I am old school) without putting it into playlists... it's kind of a mess. My mom always laughs because she never knows what's coming when we're on car rides (which is the only time she tolerates my music). I have country, pop, crap pop, 80s, 50s, punk, rock, techno, and stuff I can only describe based off vibe. 😅 I love music so much. I think I'd die if I lost my hearing. So my standards to be my fave artist is that I have to like one full album from start to finish and only 3 artists have ever managed to do that: Linkin Park (A Thousand Suns was the album), Of Monsters and Men, and Dermot Kennedy. ❤
I could probably keep going off on music, but I did wanna answer the writing question, because I'm also passionate about that.
I've been writing fanfiction since I was 13/14 so around 16 years now. I always loved writing before that, and my aunt got me a "make your own book" kit when I was, like, 8 that I loved. I loved writing assignments in school where I could just let my imagination go. (Although, I distinctly remember an assignment in elementary school where we wrote our own books and my teacher criticized the length of the title and I think that's where my fear of creating titles comes from tbh. 🤣) I think finding fanfiction was a plus/minus for me. On the one hand, it really helped me grow and evolve. On the other, I haven't managed to write anything else, really. And nothing with the same passion or enjoyment. As for my favorite personal work? I think I really love "A New Record" from the Sherlock fandom. Idk why exactly. I don't know if I did the topics that I covered in it justice, really. But I think it's just kind of peak emotion and maybe relatability that I'm not sure I've managed to reach in my Hetalia fanfics yet. (My second fave is probably "I asked for Coffee and Got You", from the Hetalia fandom. It's relatable in a different way and it was so much fun to write.)
Anyone else's? It's hard to name a fave because I think my standards are as high as my music, and I'd consider a fave fanfiction one that I'd go back to regardless of what fandom I'm currently in. And nothing comes to mind, unfortunately. (I'm so picky about my tastes. Lmao.)

Guys help my mom wants to read my fanfics cuz I’ve been ranting to her abt it cuz my sisters at college and I couldn’t talk to her abt it…
She understands if I don’t want her to read it, but I also kinda do want her to read so she knows that I take my writing seriously and that I’m actually good at it (cuz I’m actually debating trying to make this a possible career someday and I need her to take it seriously if I want to do that). But she’s gonna hate some of the themes for it…
First of all, it’s gay af, and she’s shown signs of judgment whenever I talk abt my friends that are gay or whatever (real encouraging for when I wanna come out -_-)
Second, I was REALLY unfiltered in it. She doesn’t mind swearing that much, she’s worse than me with it, but I doubt she’ll enjoy knowing at how much I actually do swear…
And third, it’s fanfiction, it’s not an original work really, so she wouldn’t understand a thing abt it anyway :/
I think I’m just gonna wait until I finish an original work to let her read it…
Also I have the constant fear that she’s been telling my dad abt my writing (even tho she’s probably noticed that I’ve waited until he’s out of the room to talk to her abt it). I’m sure he’d be supportive, but he’s really judgmental and has shown a dislike whenever I mention enjoying writing

every time someone talks about how my dad needs to retire (which is true, i know) or at least sell the business or my coworker potentially leaving and how that would impact said things or me getting another job someday i truly just wanna throw up. how pathetic everyone must think i am for still being here
i want to get out, i wish i had never gotten stuck in this, my anxiety has gotten so much worse since i graduated college especially wrt job stuff and what hasn't changed is i have no clue what i really wanna do and even less idea how the fuck to do it. i don't know how people go on interviews to a million places (especially multiple rounds what the FUCK is that about you shouldn't have to go to more than one for basic fucking jobs it's insane to me) and deal with being rejected over and over
i just feel like nothing i like okay is something i can translate into skills for another job. and some of the stuff i do now is alright, really, but it's not what i want for myself. i just feel like i can do more with my brain than this (though sometimes i feel like a fucking idiot bc i lost my feeling of being good at anything once i no longer had school to rely on). and the things i am good at, like some of said things i do, are not how i wanna spend my life. i don't need a job i'm insanely passionate about because that'll just lead to burnout, i think, but i want something i like
every thing i think that i like of is an impossibility. bookstore? could i handle retail? not to mention a smaller bookstore would be preferable over like a chain, but i would guess that's way less job security. writing? i will never be good enough for that. though hey with some of the shit that gets churned out these days maybe i could. but i'm only writing my self-insert fanfiction most of the time anyway, i can't come up with anything original lol. something in fashion? can't draw, can't sew, sometimes i don't think my own style is good enough, plus how that whole world tends to idealize thinness. the shopaholic series honestly had me thinking about being a stylist, but it feels like those people are sooooo knowledgeable, and i really just like dressing cute for me. how do they tell what size people wear by looking at them? how do they think in terms of what that person likes instead of their own preferences?
idk those are just a few things where it's like man wouldn't that be nice in an alternate universe where those things are possible? even like, okay clothing stores, sure, i'd get to dress cute and everything, but again retail, especially with the fact that it seems like those workers are kind of pressured to pressure customers and i just can't do that. i feel like i'm stuck with the office environment where at least in my current situation i kinda do what i want wrt clothes, just not the kind of revealing stuff i might wear on a day out, but i try to have fun and do some unique pieces while still looking professional enough, but it's still really limiting as to when i can wear my cute outfits, especially bc i don't have a fucking life, so i only get to do them when i go shopping with my mom.
and otherwise i don't mind the office vibe necessarily, i know some people think it's soul sucking but again in my current situation i have my own space, a lot of my issue is not having enough to do lol (again, i could be using my brain more i stg, sometimes it's nice doing easy stuff like scanning so i can read or be on my phone throughout the day, but it still feels pathetic) so like it's not like i'm working SUPER hard on shit i don't care about, but ultimately i am generally working on shit i don't care about. again, it doesn't need to be passionate, but i just want to have a little more feeling about it. anyway, yeah, offices are okay to me, i just think something more laid back in terms of clothes would truly be better for me, that's maybe a silly thing to focus on in terms of picking a job, but it's just the truth, i wanna have fun lol
i don't know what to do and i need help and maybe i haven't vocalized that enough to anyone but my mom in the early days when i talked about resumes or whatever and she thought maybe my brother could help like sorry but he got his first job after graduating and stuck with it, same for my sister or close anyway. my friends have had all sorts of different jobs but they're generally not Professional World jobs so their experiences are different. only one person i can think of and she's got so much on her plate i wouldn't want to bug her about that kind of thing. i just feel so alone in it and stupid and pathetic and helpless and it's always there in the back of my head for the past few years if not a full on thought spiral
it's not even getting into the fact that i wanted to think about these things properly this year and then my body went insane and that's still most of what i can focus on. like would i have found excuses to not think about it anyway? probably. but five years at this job is too fucking long and ten years since i graduated high school and not having changed my life in any meaningful way just feels so incredibly fucked up and i wanted to change things and then i couldn't. and even now knowing whatever's going on with me probably won't drastically affect my future or my abilities or anything, it's still so mentally exhausting and i can't do anything but retreat into myself and wish it would all go away or magically be fixed, even though i know nothing is gonna drop into my life. but i'm not good enough or smart enough or mentally well enough to do fucking anything.
