Hi! I've seen mentions of the Bond fandom slack on the mi6-cafe posts, and I was wondering if it's still open to join? :)

Hi aullier! It is totally still open to join, thanks for asking! There's an invite link here: https://join.slack.com/t/00qchat/shared_invite/zt-wh2x79hx-xXrY91DLMQIn0WdEHOjg0w

Welcome aboard!

which one of your fics is your favourite? do you have a particular favourite line? which fic/scene was the easiest to write? how do you pick titles? what is your editing process like? in the mafia, do you think soukoku hung out together in their down time? do you think chuuya ever suspected that dazai might defect before he did? headcanons for hogwarts houses for as many bsd characters as you're interested in? your favourite thing about soukoku? (feel free to answer only the ones you want :))

I don’t know! (maybe Where You Are) 

My favourite line I’ve written recently is the first kiss from ablp, “the first tentative brush of their lips meeting shudders down his spine in the gentlest of earthquakes.” 

I think a map of your stars was the easiest to write; it started out as something I poked at in between wrestling with evil WIP and then just sort of snowballed.

Titles are my nemesis, I always want a nice phrase or a play on words but I can never think of any so I just end up grabbing song lyrics that fit the theme. I’m still trying to find a title for gakuen au ;;;;

My editing process is barely existent tbh. I can’t draft; I edit and rewrite as I go, with frequent rereads to check and change stuff, then do comb-throughs after I get to the end for continuity and phrasing and stuff.

Oooh I think in the beginning any downtime they spent together was filled with trying to challenge and one-up each other. And then later on they alternated between avoiding one another and seeking each other out to pick fights (Chuuya) or for amusement (Dazai). Which results in fights anyway.

I think he’d have known it was a possibility for a while - I can’t see Chuuya having any illusions that Dazai was remotely loyal to anything, tbh. He’s so absent from the Dark Era content that it’s hard to tell if he was even around enough at that time to know about any of it.

EVERYONE SHOULD BE A HUFFLEPUFF okay no but all the hufflepuff traits/virtues are literally just decent human being stuff and imma get off my soapbox now since bsd and decent human beings is like. lmao. My one actual conviction I have about this is that Dazai is 100% entirely a Slytherin, and since in both Western and Japanese alphabetical order Dazai would be sorted first, Chuuya would be shouting Gryffindor faster than the hat could.

My favourite thing about soukoku has to be that push-and-pull dynamic, no question.
