Some questions for the very normal fic writer asks!!! :D
2. 23. 24. and one bonus of your choice
Aaayyy :DD thanks for the ask <3 let's see~
2. If your writing process was a spotify playlist, what would it be called?
My mind twisted and turned around this for far too long I feel like, and still I haven't found a bullseye of an answer xD though I think this is pretty accurate: "Starts and Stops (where are we going again?)"
Much of it feels like a slow hike to me; being lost far too often and trying to figure out where I wanna go aka what I want a fic to actually be. My motivation isn't constant either, so it's all a rather halting, step by step affair xD (at least like 90% of the time)
23. Badly describe the plot of your WIP(s).
1. Loki is fucking sick of all this shit and shapeshifts about it. It helps. xDDD ("Only Loki"; omegaverse beta Loki AU)
2. Fallen god meets pole dancer. It's very gay, and kind of sad. But mostly gay. (untitled AU; part of FrostIron flash bingo stories)
3. Loki and Tony talk, but they're so bad at it that it nearly makes them single again. ("And I Was ... Happy"; part of FrostIron flash bingo stories)
4. Loki shows up at his ex's place. Leaving again? Who said anything about leaving? ("not much of anything"; part of FrostIron flash bingo stories; modern AU)
24. Spoil the ending of your WIP (wrong answers only).
The only currently ongoing (on ao3) wip of mine is Only Loki. It ends like this:
Loki realizes that shapeshifting isn't the solution — but it can be the answer. God of Mischief mode activated. He becomes a shifting oracle, beloved and revered the world over for his mystical but wise answers. Of course, his esteem isn't universal. Some argue that a simple change in shape (multiple, on some occasions) isn't, and shouldn't be construed as a genuine response; an actual solution to the problems presented.
(And it isn't. Loki just listens to the query, takes this or that shape, then watches the mortal in question grasp for an answer themselves. They're remarkably good at it. And amusingly foolish, to think he'd shown them the way when he'd done nothing more than point haphazardly, looking on as they rushed to follow. Funny little mortals.)
I don't even know where that came from xD
And bonus :D
5. Which fic do you fear has become too powerful and must be stopped?
Again, Only Loki. Might seem strange given that it has only three chapters and hasn't been updated in over a year but it's about how powerful it became in my head.
When I first came up with the idea, I thought it'd be like 15k. Cute little story, nice.
But now, more than a year and lots of thoughts and so much writing and story related growth later, it's like a twice evolved form of its original concept. There's no way I'd bring it in in under 50k.
There's just so much left to figure out, and it's delightful and overwhelming all at once. Bit of a "where do I even start" thing. I love it though :D
