@mllekaren reblogged your post and added:

Secret to not let GoT disappoint you.

Oh that. I think there is no real secret there at all, just a dose of realism and acknowledgement that once things change so much that they are only caricatures of their former selfs, it is futile to hold on to the old - and make oneself froth in the mouth and miserable. I realise some people get their kicks from it and fine for them, but that is clearly as personal choice as any other kink.

did the year end fic memething again for kicks and science based on the ao3/fic tumblr (here’s the previous year's) 

Total number of completed stories: 12ish (+ 2 wips)

Total word count: like ~13ish k of completed ones, + ~15k of ongoing ones. so ~28k? Fandoms written in: drrr, k, natsume yuujinchou, gintama & a mysterious one for yuletide. Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about what you’d predicted? i basically had the same output as the previous year, maybe slightly higher, even if distributed among fewer stories. i’m actually amazed i wrote anything at all after the summer considering i was half-excepting to Quit Fandom Forever (and that was wishful thinking alas) and we are all basically surprised forever that i wrote anything at all over 500 words let alone stuff with more than a single chapter.

What’s your own favorite story of the year? I ACTUALLY LIKED A LOT OF THE THINGS I WROTE THIS YEAR!! lmaooo is that vain? i don’t really care. i think some kind of toss-up between spin the molotov cocktail (because it was SO MUCH FUN), i’m your stranger on neon roads (because it happened in a breathless rush and i don’t actually remember the process of writing it but afterwards went, oh, hey, cool!!) or soul circles (for reasons that are a combination of the previous two). 

Did you take any writing risks this year? everything was a writing risk this year but especially [insert sakamoto laugh] what was i even thinking writing in gintama after consuming only like 1/9127378th of gintama canon and also the monster hisaru wip because i had basically sworn to myself i would never write a multichaptered thing again after terrible previous experiences but it’s one of those things i basically want to finish or die trying and fingers crossed it will be the former, so yes, ~huge~ risks

Do you have any fanfic or ofic goals for the New Year? i talked about ofic last year and i once again dream about touching ofic again, especially totally overhauling that one story i started when i was sixteen (shh there have been small steps in that direction!!). as for fanfic, i basically have a sum total of 3 fics i want to finish before i close the K chapter of my life FOREVER. bubblegum pop office romance monster is one of them but it’s a wip so a goal is probably to FINISH IT. also uh 50k baby gangsters fixit that i’ll probably just dream a lot about but one can hope and hey january is SO CLOSE i can almost smell the blood :))) i also started a whole bunch of cap fic after crying exhaustedly about the winter soldier over the past year or so, which is sitting somewhere in the depths of my computer and maybe those feelings will be revived post cap3, as well as have a bunch of unfinished natsume fic and un-go fic that i’d probably like to see the light of day. 

My best story of this year: what is ‘best’ anyway? i mean i have utmost pride for the one where suoh mikoto kisses everyone because i’m still a tad high on bringing the ‘kamamoto rikio/suoh mikoto’ ao3 tag to life but also i think i liked writing it because it made me laugh hysterically and that’s always good in my books. basically, the ones that are my favourites on this list are the ones i feel are the best and vice-versa?

My most popular story of this year: soul circles and spin the molotov cocktail are at this point in time tied if we go by the infallible science that is ao3 kudos

Story of mine most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion: lmao how dare everyone not appreciate my works of high art??? i guess i was kind of wary that literally 0.5 person and a shoestring would read the hisaru monster because it’s been such an emotionally exhausting process but it was actually read way more than i had imagined and this is kind of the opposite to what this question is asking but yes.

Most fun story to write: the favourites are the best and are also the most fun in retrospect and everything is interconnected :’) also bakery AU because i gave literally zero fucks at that point about anything. oh and i can’t remember if the co-written chapters of the light we kindle here with qserasera were done in 2014 or this year?? but they were SUPER FUN!!!

Story with the single sexiest moment: the hisaru bubblegum pop office romance monster is probably the only thing with a rating above ‘t’ so that likely defaults but i can’t actually remember what the sexiest moment is and don’t feel like skimming 10k words, so what comes to mind instead are some of the blink-and-miss-it moments in i’m your stranger on neon roads which are more sexy in that atwood-esque ‘my love for them is visual [...]  don’t move, I think. stay like that, let me have that’ aesthetic vs. actual? sexual? acts? also it’s 2k15 and i still can’t write anything sexually explicit to save my life lmao so there is that.

Story that shifted my own perceptions of the characters: it’s hard to keep track of you falling through the sky made me think of some stuff i’d never really thought of in detail and for all i write about mikoto’s-keeper-and-widower!kusanagi, i never really let myself steep much in anna’s-concerned-dad!kusanagi and the idea of just how he keeps watching all these kids die or waver on the brink of it over and over and over again man

Hardest story to write: ready or not was kinda brutal because i basically can’t write mikado anymore without the feeling of swallowing a hundred thumbtacks in one go. who am i kidding, everything drrr!! is now gonna be painful forever :DDD  -- there’s also uh like five pages of rather personal author’s notes that one day i’ll share snippets of maybe, possibly after the hisaru bubblegum pop office romance monsterfic is finished, that is if i don’t die first of mortification. i maintain that fushimi saruhiko is the second biggest practical joke this series ever played on me basically and i’ve had to/still have to occasionally put that story away for weeks/months at a time intermittently because it’s viscerally overwhelming and makes me feel a tad ill at times for generally inexplicable reasons.

Biggest Disappointment:  nothing glaring actually? i took everything a lot less seriously this year including my own writing and that weirdly led me to be much more chill about everything. like i’m generally pleased with most of what i wrote this year, even (or especially) with the super silly self-indulgent things and i can’t figure out if it’s because my bar was lower or that i was less inhibited (read: more sleep-deprived!!) but either way, it worked because it made me able to go back and reread things and go YOU KNOW WHAT?? I CRACK MYSELF UP!!

Biggest Surprise: i think kay once asked me where spin the molotov cocktail even came from and my answer was legit ‘we just don’t know!!!!!!’ my answer is still pretty much that. i also basically continue to live a life of surprise that nearly half my ao3 body of work consists of this one godforsa[k]en fandom!!!

Dan Biggar you are my fave honestly

Doin’ some cleaning today. Extended family that I actually like to be around will be visiting this summer, and I reeeeeally hope I don’t have to share my bed with one of my cousins. Hopefully the 70 pound pit-lab that I also share my bed with will be a deterrent. She sorta takes up as much of my bed as I do.

Gotta say I’m not looking forwards to packing away my altars. Again.
