10 Vic/Helena?
#10. “I might have had a few shots.”
It only takes her four minutes to get her key in the door. Helena has scratched at the deadbolt for the other three before stumbling in. Her violet colored bloused is slightly crinkled from a night out, magenta lipstick smeared away and she’s already trying to unbutton her jeans before the door is fully shut. 
Her heels come off first and she leaves them in her living room as she pads down the hallway, pushing her jeans over long legs to leave them behind as well. She feels better with the cool air of her apartment now washing over her. Helena’s cheeks are flushed and she’s humming an old song out of tune, not even noticing she’s not alone when she makes it through her bedroom, hands on her blouse to pull overhead as she heads for her bathroom. Her shirt hits the floor just as she stumbles into her bathroom, turning on the sink and listening to the pipes sing in her old apartment. She takes one glance in her mirror before her brows come together and then glances out of her bathroom, “How long…. H-how long have you been in my house?” 
Helena’s words are only slightly slurred, and she’s proud of the glare she manages to send his way, “I thought you were back in Hub City.” 
Vic finally clicks on the lamp next to the bed. The warm light washes over her tired features, his mask is gone, so is his hat. There are dark circles under his eyes but he still manages to smirk at her half-nakedness, her flushed face and pink pout.
“I came back early. Needed to re-organize my leads, you’ve been busy I see.” Vic’s voice is smooth and makes the hair on the back of her neck stand up, a soft chill races up her arm and she remembers she’s practically stripped herself bare with  one hand propping up on her hips, standing proud now in black unmentionables. 
“I may have had a few shots.” She doesn’t go on to tell him that few could very well be several, and most of them were paid for by patrons at the dive bar. 
“That all?” He questions and she finds herself giving him a silent snarl, padding back into her bathroom to splash water across her face, scrubbing away the makeup from the night. Helena blots at her face with a soft towel and lets it hit the floor. Parts of her are sobering up but she cannot deny she’s still buzzed, still warm and flushed even as she comes back into the bedroom. Vic hasn’t moved. He’s still sitting up on her bed with a curious look pointed in her direction, watching her move as if he’s not even there. Then she slides around him like he is nothing more than an obstacle in her way. Helena crawls up on to the mattress, giving him a sharp look.
“Turn off the light Vic.”
“Don’t you want me to leave?” 
“Did I ask that?”  Helena counters, stretching out on her side of the mattress. He doesn’t answer her and a minute later the light goes out. The mattress dips and she feels him settling in, without warning she tosses an arm over his chest and makes her way into his personal space. It doesn’t take long before she’s asleep. A snore rips through the air and he makes a mental note to leave water next to the bed when dawn strikes and he leaves again.

i cannot stop thinking about their phone conversation in gotham knights #39 scott beatty how dare u do this to me dkhdjdhejeb so anyways it case it wasn't obvious. yes i am writing vichelena. at the rate i write it will probably take 2 months before i finish but here is the opening scene anyways
Helena reaches the phone before it can ring a third time. “Yes?”
He only has to speak for her to recognize his voice. “Hey. Got room for another vigilante in Gotham?”
“What's this about, Vic?”
“I’d rather not tell you on the phone.”
She can understand that. “Well, I haven’t moved.”
“Thanks. See you.”

what fandoms do you write for?
i started with miraculous ladybug, dipped my toe in asoiaf (specifically jaime/brienne), went into genshin & hsr, and rn all my current writing is going into dc!!
what are your top 5 fics by kudos?
all this, and love too — spy x family — a whopping 4,379 kudos (??? still don't understand how)
lesterlicious — trials of apollo — 980 kudos (okay woag did not realize the numbers were that big now)
a fine bird nests wisely — hsr, jingfu — 384 kudos (one of my personal favorites dont read the others here just read my jingfu <3)
a chat in disneyland — miraculous ladybug — 337 kudos
Enough — miraculous ladybug — 327 kudos
do you respond to comments?
yes of course!! im just really bad at keeping up but i read and treasure each comment i promise 🥹
what is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
i have an unfinished jingfu fic (propaganda movement chinoy au) where there will be major character death! im really looking forward to finishing that one
as for published works, my friend sent me death threats when i posted redder than february flowers (hsr/jingfu), so I'll answer with that :3
what's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
i think it's gotta be all the stars crowd around the moon <3 just softness and love and warmth <3
do you get hate on fics?
i was about to say i thankfully dont but then i suddenly remembered that single comment i got on a fine bird nests wisely KNCNDVSHAHS let me just grab it for your viewing:
Tumblr media
THIS WAS SO FUNNY BECAUSE ON THAT AO3 I HAVE A FIC WHERE CHARACTER A TORTURES CHARACTER B AT THE BEHEST OF SOMEONE ELSE, AND THEN PROCEEDS TO MURDER INNOCENT SUBORDINATES AGAINST CHARACTER B'S WISHES TO ENSURE THERE ARE NO WITNESSES. AND ANON CHOSE TO COMMENT ON PURE BIRD FU XUAN SILLINESS 😭😭😭😭😭
do you write smut? if so, what kind?
i do! i have! there's one published (among our other torments not the least) which is wriolyney hate/desk sex, and there's an arlefuri one in my wips which will remain a secret until i finish writing it hehehe cant go spoiling the content yk
do you write crossovers? what's the craziest one you've written?
i dont think i have :0 but i like to transfer concepts into another media, like for example yelone (yelan/pantalone) in a death in the nile plot, or crimson peak !!
have you ever had a fic stolen?
nope, or at least not to my knowledge LOL pls dont do it though
have you ever had a fic translated?
nope! i once wrote just dialogue for a liubai fic in my terrible chinese, tho, and then i translated it into english and added description and everythig!! here it is with the translation
Tumblr media Tumblr media
have you ever co-written a fic before?
yes!! i dont think im cut out for it tho because im very bad at powering thru wips. i cant turn my writing on and off like a spigot :(
what's your all time favourite ship?
this is sososo hard and sososo evil but i guess jingfu </3 not thinking much about it rn tho bc im busy witj dc huhu
what's a WIP you want to finish but sometimes doubt you ever will?
JINGFU CHINOY PROPAGANDA MOVEMENT AU, dinahbabs fake dating, vichelena post-breakup situationship, hawk & dove aftermath of titans burning rage and legion of bloom in connection with the mordru arc, yelone crimson peak au, SO MANY . SO SO SO SO MANY
what are your writing strengths?
i genuinely don't know anymore bc my writing changes sm all the time. uhhh. i know how to perfectly format dialogue tags?
what are your writing weaknesses?
i hate starting things i hate too much description,, im also prone to really really long sentences, which i try to cut in half when editing, but sometimes im too tired to edit so...
thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
girl im filipino wdyt HAHA
serious answer: absolutely. just make sure your target audience will be able to comprehend ur meaning. do this by either making a translation easily accessible without extra steps, or by making a translation obsolete by clarifying the meaning within the text!
or if you're writing, say, maria clara at ibarra fic, just write in taglish bc ur readers are almost all gonna be filipinos anyways LOL
first fandom you wrote for?
miraculous 😞😞😞 ladybug 😞😞😞😞😞 i wrote a chloe fic for an english assignment it was really bad but it was my first real story ever HAHA
favorite fic you've written?
VERY HARD especially since some of them aren't even published yet. but i will have to go with, again, redder than february flowers <3
tagging: @queer-cosette @theladyfae @hanaasbananas uhh anyone else who sees this and is a writer!!!! thank you for reading til the end LOL
