🐾 Favorite duo/group dynamic trope

i loooove the “older brother figure saddled with a bunch of little gremlins” group dynamic. yes, having a long-suffering mom-type, or dad-type (or grandpa-type) is fun, but there’s something unique about the brother figure that’s just mildly baffled about everything… chaos ensues, he wants to help, but also he’s a brother, so he lowkey worsens things because of his warped sense of older-brother-humor… do you get the vision? yes, this is about simeon being stuck with shenanigans happening around him, but most importantly, this is cassian being an older-brother figure deliberately fucking around.

i also enjoy the duo dynamic of two people having their own language/references that are utterly baffling and impenetrable from an outsider’s perspective… down to silently staring at each other as there’s a silent convo occurring via facial expressions, to obscure movie references, to a reference to some very and weirdly specific situation that happened on that one thursday night seven years ago when it was raining… i think silent, secret languages are so funny and endearing <3

💌 What's your favorite genre to write?

i like writing magical realism with lots of drama, and many horror elements. also, i guess technically fantasy with body horror elements (i stand by the fact that there’s no effective horror fantasy that doesn’t lean heavily into body horror) and lots of relationship drama. basically i adore writing relationship drama with the added tension of otherworldly forces at play.

💕 What's a genre/trope you'd like to write more?

HORROR COMEDYYYY, but like. effective horror, as opposed to horror as a garnish. no, i want people to laugh at my works and to also be scared to fall asleep at night. i would love to dabble in that more, but currently… relationship drama is my best friend <3

❌ What's a genre/trope you don't like to write?

i cannot stand sci-fi… i’m sorry, don’t put me anywhere near it… i don’t like space, i don’t like aliens, i don’t like any of it… none of it is fun to write :((( stargate au gets a pass bc i’m twisting it into a more fantasy “guillermo del toro” au, so it’s not even sci-fi at its core anymore.

you’ll also never catch me writing “immortal x teenager” NOR WILL I EVER WRITE “love interest is out of control and scary bc of Magical Reasons and puts the one they love in danger/vaguely assault-esque situation”…. that’s not love. that’s an abusive dynamic and disgusting.

#.asks #m.kai💛#another one i was GOING to say i will never write was love triangles #which is vaguely hypocritical since *gestures vaguely at the chrysi sitution*#BUT one of my friends (hi abi ily) has stated in the past that my love triangles are satisfying in a way that no other love triangles are #in the sense that.. they normally can’t stand love triangles but they love the ones i write #and not to put myself on a pedestal or anything but i imagine part of the reason is that i’m like ‘well—#—either they figure it out before it drags OR they’re both going to end up with the girl’#like either jacks is left out in the cold for good w/o any question #OR he’s chrysi’s pretty little princess consort while azure’s her husband and they’re both cool about it #on account of the fact that they both love her so very much and also they’re friends #but barring the chrysi situation—i don’t like the love triangle dynamic all that much #all my romances are pretty straightforward. i live in fear of ppl misreading the luna rune and cassian dynamic though #sorry… cassian is her older brother… hate to break it to you but simeon has been her lover this whole time #she’s remembered her romance with simeon before it even happened bc she foretold it <333 #also cassian has his own star-cursed soulmate and his love story w inanna is the entire reason the books happen #BUT I’M RAMBLING.. IDK IF I’M MAKING SENSE BUT THERE YOU HAVE IT
