12, 13, 37 for the asks!
12. Are there any tropes you used to dislike but have grown on you?
Hmmm I don't think so but mostly because there aren't that many tropes i dislike in the first place, that i would read anyway. Like there are obvious romance tropes like miscommunication or cheating but i rarely read JUST romance fics so that rarely comes up (and when it does its usually handled better cuz romance isnt the core plot so those tropes SERVE the plot instead of being used to prolong the will they wont they). Then there are things like coffee shop aus and such which i dont dislike but i do find unengaging so i dont....read them...basically i dont read enough things i dont think ill like to start liking them hjjhv
13. Are there any tropes you used to like but don’t anymore?
Lemme tell you ive been consistent with things i like since i was like 10 THIS BITCH KNOWS WHATS SHES ABOUT. So no i also can't think of any for that. I think most of my trope shifting is going from negative to neutral or neutral to positive rather than from negative to positive.
37. Promote one of your own “deep cut” fics (an underrated one, or one that never got as much traction as you think it deserves!). What do you like about it?
yall
YALL
Seven days just dropped last week and it had a really lackluster reception. Like you can't rly call it deep cut because it JUST came out, but MAN i was really proud of this one, I believed in this one so it really sucks to see it fail so hard. It covers the week before Suguru went genocidal (plus the day of and the day after) from both Suguru's and Satoru's perspective, dealing with slowly compiling emotions of exhaustion and alienation and hopelessness and meaningless and not to be like 'Ker said' but Ker said its my best Suguru yet. This was the fic where I was trying really hard to be more grounded and descriptive, since i feel like my fics tend to lack the sorta, groundedness and realness cuz a lot of them deal so much with emotions the setting itself feels floaty. So i was trying to make the setting somewhat more real. Also I mostly do aus so its rare for me to like go and dissect the characters IN CANON the way i did here (bless ely she told me i made her understand suguru there <3). So its just! I know its long but i promise its snappy and reads fast and please just give it a shot, I'm really proud of it and it sucks to see it fall by the wayside
If yall want something that's been out for a bit and received little attention I always felt Spindle was very raw in an emotional way but also i understand why people wouldnt want to read a fic that is essentially a description of an anxiety attack
Send me an ask <3
