all girls have diaries - who smart to consult if not yourself? yours, particularly, is stored by your bedside table, enchanted with a knockback jinx if anyone (especially rabastan, merlin, he's so meddlesome) was to grab for it. no, all that's written here is for your eyes only. from 1972 to... well, the dates get muddled after a while, don't they?
'corvus oculum corvi non eruit' is engraved on the shiny veneer of the family crest. all nice and wonderful, though entirely impractical.
some are known to grow peckish. what then?
Tumblr media
pairings—sirius black, barty crouch jr, regulus black, evan rosier, & james potter x f!lestrange!reader genre—action, drama, romance, coming of age, comedy, canon compliant up to a point, adventure warnings—swearing, mentions of blood & death, canon typical violence, parental trauma, underage drinking & smoking, some bad decisions but what is teenhood without them author’s note: hm yes here we go. my contribution to a fandom i'm likely never leaving help

I was tagged by @prince-luffy who is a very good egg. Also I'm in a waffling mood so there may be waffling. I might also be drunk.
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
25. Eight years of writing. Twenty-fucking-five. That's pretty pathetic lol.
2. What’s your total word count?
112,442. Almost a novel. Probably. It's a lot of cocks either way.
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Always Sunny currently, Preacher and Gotham in the past.
4. Top 5 fics by kudos:
1 - The Bird and the Worm
2 - Checkmate
3 - From Despair to Where
4 - Nice Guys Finish Last
5 - Lost Souls Forever
All Gotham, although Figure It Out is almost catching up with LSF which makes me happy. There's quite a bit of of novice cringe in that list, so click at your own peril. I guess we all had to learn somewhere.
6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Where Did You Sleep Last Night? for sure. Honourable mentions to Comeback Kid and Time to Pretend, though.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
All His Suits Are Torn. :)
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Nah. Never written for a popular enough fandom.
9. Do you write smut?
Does the Pope shit in the woods?
10. Do you write crossovers?
Never fancied it. I've always preferred to stick as close to canon as I can. Alternate scenarios to episodes and scenes have always been my jam.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I'm aware of. More gifs than I can count though, sigh.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
Again, not that I'm aware of. Years ago someone asked to translate Checkmate (I think?) to another language but I never saw anything of it. Maybe I didn't look hard enough.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
I don't think I ever would have considered co-writing if I'd never met @constant-sinner. Our styles and kinks and preferences just gel so well.
Please check out our most recent collab: My God Is the Sun. We hadn't worked together since Evol in 2019 and it still just flowed so nicely. I do love me some shameless plugs.
14. What’s your all time favorite ship?
You can pry Cricksden from my cold, dead hands. A third of their fics on ao3 are mine and that pleases me greatly.
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you will?
Father of All Motherfuckers was my only wip but it got shitcanned because I just didn't have the time (or the ideas, lol). Not If You Were the Last Junkie on Earth rose from its ashes and honestly I'm happy about that. I really enjoyed writing it. I have toyed with the idea of a set of confessional fics using some of its remnants too, but ehhh. Maybe.
16. What are your writing strengths?
As Raymond says, whimsical blasphemy.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
I've never been a fan of dialogue. Some of my stories have masses of it which leads me to believe I was possessed by some sort of loquacious demonic entity at the time. Junkie had zero dialogue and that wasn't even a conscious decision, but goddamn it felt nice.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language?
If I could speak more than a few words of another language, sure.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Gotham.
20. Favorite fic you’ve ever written?
Blasphemy (The Victimless Crime). It probably always will be. That fic helped me a lot and led to more fun than I could have ever envisioned. I owe it a motherfucking shitload.
tagging: @jessicorvus @bensonstablers and any other fic-writing mutual whose name may or may not have disappeared into my glass of Baileys. Salut.

Now I understand all the hype Murder on the dancefloor has been getting
(just watched Saltburn)
Personally the biggest piece of the soundtrack was Time to pretend by MGMT - boy it was like a time machine, I was in my 20s again 😅
