YESSSSS Savior Ink. I adored that one. If you do write more in that ‘verse, please tag me.

Will do! I really want to finish that one. I liked what I had plotted and then just lost my mojo. (fingers crossed it’s still in there somewhere)

Kristen actually said that anyone can give out the link once they have it.

Ah, cool, that’ll make it easier for her. When did she say that? I was half asleep when I spoke to her this morning and I didn’t think to ask.

In the spirit of "TMI" and because I love your CS smut so much: do you have a favorite "type" of smut to write? (Themes, positions, etc., however you feel like interpreting the question.) Is there anything in that vein that you haven't written yet but would like to?

I don’t know if I do have a favorite, to be honest. I try to mix it up as much as I can (in writing and in life) so that I don’t get stuck in a rut (in writing and in life). So, like, I didn’t write cunnilingus in this fandom for a while because it seemed like every CS fic came with it standard, and while I enjoy it very much (in writing and in life), I felt like I needed to plant my flag somewhere else. Thus the first smut I wrote in this fandom was a fingerbang/handjob. I read a lot of smut, I’m not gonna lie, so the more different I can make what I write, while still being within the realm of what I and most readers will find sexy, the happier I am with it. 

Sure, there are things I haven’t written that I would like to. For one, I’m contemplating a follow-up to Women on Jeweled Chairs where the special guest star with Milah and Killian is a man. I’ll definitely get around to that at some point.

Ask me anything for TMI Tuesday

Ahhhhh shit. Just like with Liz, I can't really settle on one, but for right now? A DARKER HOLLOW AHHHHHHH. So brilliant.

Neverland man, it’s just the best for fic. Thanks, babe. ;) That story will forever be one I’m really proud of. (and thanks for playing, I’ve been so absent lately I was afraid my inbox would be crickets)

For the fic ask: Trust Me. 3, 4, 9, and 11.

3. What’s your favorite line of narration?

Ugh, this is like choosing one of my children as a favorite. While I was tempted to pick the description of Emma from Part 1 (a dark and terrible goddess all in white), I’m gonna go with the description of Dark Hook from Part 2:

His skin is pale, his hair a riot of wind-swept, oily tangles, like he can’t keep his hand out of it. His eyeliner is smeared and starting to wear away, making him somehow look younger and more vulnerable, even as the expression that he gives her is full of exhausted malice. 

4. What’s your favorite line of dialogue?

This, however, is an easy choice. I’ve talked about this line with everyone I know on this fucking website. Put it on my tombstone.

“Want you to see that we’re better together than apart.”

She hears his hook scrape the wall next to her ear as he shifts his position. “Of course we are, Swan. We’re a bloody apocalypse together.”

9. Were there any alternate versions of this fic?

Only in the sense that at one point I had a list of fic ideas, and this fic came out of two separate entries:

Angsty fucking in Camelot

Dark Hook/Dark Swan hate-fuck

Deep, I know. Anyway, once I realized that these were the first 2 chapters of a 3 part fic where everything turns out okay in the end and started writing, it came out pretty much the way you see it, with some whipping into shape by @j-philly-b. 

11. What do you like best about this fic?

I like the moments of humor that come out in the midst of the angst. Like Killian’s “Believe me, if I thought I could fuck the Dark One out of you, I would.” Or like when Emma gets distracted and sort of enthralled by the idea that their safeword should be beanstalk in part one. Killian is standing there agonizing over the fact that she’s the Dark One and what is he doing, should he be doing this, angst angst angst. and she’s not noticing at all, she’s just all ooh, you know what would be funny?

And then in Part 3, she takes one of the cruelest things he said to her in Part 2, and basically yadda yadda yaddas it.  “I mean, you said it yourself: I’m afraid of losing control in my life, so I have a submission kink in the bedroom. The thing I fear becomes my blah blah blah. Whatever you said. Deepest desire.” I love that, one because she’s inaccurately paraphrasing him, as one would, and also because it takes the power right out of it. More than anything, it shows that they are gonna be okay.

Ask me questions about a fic!

I have winged eyeliner tips if you need them. EVERYONE DESERVES A GREAT WINGED EYE, DAMMIT.

I have a great liquid eyeliner pen (I have tried SO MANY) and I have gotten so much better, but making them even is a strrruuuggle. I try the ‘follow your lower lashline’ advice, but they always seem to look uneven??? TELL ME MORE.

[unfolded73]

Another New York City Serenade, definitely. But all of your stuff is delightful. Oooooh, and Trust Me!

Thank you, love! Those are favorites of mine as well.
