Ze lovely @mego42 tagged me in this an undisclosed x amount of days ago to give Faith in their Forever’s origin story so here we go ^_^

To be honest, this little bean would have never sprouted if not for @foxmagpie Good Girl’s week in August <3 There were several writing prompts to choose from and one of which was Ruby Tells Stan She’s Pregnant. I knew from the show that much like Beth & Dean, Stan and Rube’s didn’t have kids right away, for several years in fact, according to mentions of when they met, their anniversary, and factoring in the age of Sara.  While I am a hopeless romantic (or was one once upon a time) I’m hyper aware that the depth of their kind of love isn’t just simply born, it’s forged. Considering the shaky foundation of Ruby’s faith in God (from what I’ve gathered from the show), I imagined it was tested much like Sarah’s in the Bible (who did not conceive until she was 80/90+). What I really wanted to showcase was the steadfastness of Stan’s faith in them and Ruby realizing that at the cornerstone of it all, their love could and would carry them through anything...forever™. I’m sorry, I had to 💀

questions below the cut

recently I have become really fascinated with fanfic authors and what exactly was rumbling around in their brain that inspired a fic?

Was it a line of dialogue you couldn’t get out of your head?

A scene you wrote WAY in advance and then crafted the whole story around?

An image in your mind?

Inspiration from another form of media?

Maybe someone suggested something to you and it just TOOK off from there?

What is the root of your fic? The cornerstone -what is it all built around? The idea that started it all?

Tag an author & their fic. Let’s hear about what sparked your story. What exactly got your booty movin’ shakin’ motivated and writin’

And now I tag...

@sothischickshe for It’s a dirty, dirty game because l must know what cavern of debauchery this idea was birthed from and where’s the fastest transport I can find to get there

Fic you want to rewrite/expand on:  Wolf Moon. I really liked the premise and I will be expanding on it once I have some time. 

Share a bit of a wip or a story idea you’re planning on: Here is a bit from the Hogwarts AU for the Gendrya month prompts; 

She first sees him at the faculty dinner, which is two days before the students are set to arrive. It gives her time to set up her personal room, her office, and her classroom. The first thing she noticed about him was his height, he was easily 6’3 while she barely topped 5’4. The second was his eyes they were a shade of blue that captivated you in the deeps. The third was how those seemed to glaring at her, as if she was something that bothered him. She ignored it as Professor Arryn introduced her to everyone, learning that he was Gendry Waters the Transfiguration professor. He only seemed a few years older than her, she wondered why she didn’t remember him from when they were at school. It had been over a decade since she had been a student but she liked to think her memory was better than that.

Thanks so much @purplechimera8 for tagging me!!

Fandoms You Write For: Harry Potter (Wolfstar)

Where You Post: Ao3

Most Popular One-Shot: The Suit This was written for HP Kinkfest and, as such, is pretty much just PWP. But it’s really sickeningly sweet pwp. It’s tooth-rotting fluff and tantalizing smut all rolled into one! XD

Most popular Multi-Chapter Story: A/S/L This is a text-fic/prose-fic combination where Remus and Sirius meet on an online site called RandoChat. It features Trans!Remus and has some adorable bonding moments between the boys! (I had so much fun writing it!)

Favourite Story You Wrote: Oh man, that’s a hard one! It’s like choosing my babies! 

I think it’s a toss-up between: 

Sugar Maple, an on-going fic that @purplechimera8 and I are working on, featuring woodworker!Sirius and baker!Remus!. It’s a really fun fic to write and Purple is an amazing writing partner! 10/10 would write with Purple again. XD

A Night Out- This one isn’t one of my more popular fics because the premise and the tags tend to push my Wolfstar readers away! I promise, it has an excellent ending and it is well worth the read, especially since it’s some DAMN intense smut. Probably the worst pwp that I’ve ever written! ><

Story You Were Nervous to Post: 

The Good, The Bad and the Marauders- This fic was written for the WSBB this year and I had an absolutely AMAZING piece of art to work with, created by the fantastic @art-of-ame. Unfortunately, my fic was posted during an unplesant time in our fandom and therefore did not receive a lot of love. I had planned on writing a second half, but I’ve been kind of disheartened with it, so I don’t know if that’s going to happen anymore. Oh well, you win some, you lose some!

How Do You Choose Your Titles: Generally, my titles come from something that happens in the fic? On occasion, I’ll use song titles, especially if they relate to the overall plot. Very rarely, I’ll just use a pop-culture reference that makes me giggle. 

Do You Outline: HA!

Okay, joking aside, I don’t really outline. I’ve tried. I really do try a lot of times! But for the most part, I have an idea, I start writing, and whatever comes from it is the story! The boys kind of write themselves, you know?

Complete (number of stories): Because I’m too lazy to count which ones are complete and which are ongoing, I have 53 works up on Ao3. 

In-Progress: I have three fics that I’m actively working on right now! Sugar Maple, which was mentioned above; IRL, a sequel to A/S/L that goes into more depth about Remus’ trans experience; and Black and White, an artist!Remus/Gallery owner!Sirius AU that I’ve only posted on Tumblr so far! 

Do You Accept Prompts? Sure! I try to get to them, but sometimes, I can get really distracted and accidentally forget. I’m super absent-minded. The stereotypical absent-minded-artist-Ravenclaw type!

Upcoming Story You Are Most Excited About: The next few chapters of Sugar Maple are going to be GREAT! I’m really happy with them! Also, I have a few fests coming up ( @wolfstargames and @siriusblackfest), so those are also going to be really fun!!

Tagging: You guys have probably all been tagged already, but oh well! XD @jencala, @captofthesswolfstar, @january3693 @yumenouveau and anyone else who would like to participate!!

*cracks knuckles* 

Fandoms you write for ?

Game of Thrones (Jonerys) and Harry Potter (Hinny) and I use to write but never posted Star Trek (Spuhura)

Where do you post?

I post everything on my Ao3 and I have an old account for FF.net but only one of my fics is there. My niece wants me to get on Wattpad but we’ll see and I’ll post snippets on Tumblr.

Most popular one shot: By kudos count? It’s Can you stand the rain? A Modern AU jonerys one shot. Part of my anti holiday series and contribution to my disdain for Valentine’s Day. Jon and Dany broke up and a unexpected package brings them back together. There’s angst, a bit of smut. Heavily influenced by a early 90s R&B hit that it is titled after. 

Most popular multichapter? Once in a Lifetime: A modern AU angst fest that chronicles Dany and Jon’s friendship from childhood to adults and the life events that form them and the baggage they carry with a dash of mystery. It’s probably the one fic that is the most realistic. I don’t update enough so it flys under the radar LOL

Favorite story you’ve written? That’s like choosing your favorite child, lol. Probably When you least expect it. It was my first Jonerys and it tapped into my geekiness. The funniest to write was The Art of Cuffing.  

A story you were nervous to post All of them… Even the WIPs chapters. I get bad anxiety because it putting my hard work out there to be judged....But Terror create me was a huge step away from what I currently write and it took me back to my horror, ghost story roots. I was hesitant and rusty af writing suspense so posting that damn near killed me lol 

How do you choose your titles?

Songs, inspiration, randomly pop in my head while I’m running. I try to get them to correlate with a theme of the story. 

Do you outline? Yes…I have to otherwise I go off the grid. 

Complete number of stories? six and they are all one shots LOL...theres a trend there. 

What do you have in progress? A lot, I got my three current WIP Once in a Lifetime, Edgedancer of Madness and As I gaze into the Abyss are all being worked on. EoM and AIGITA are on hiatus and wont be updated till they are complete and all are 75% done. 

I got the jonerys remix in the works. I have two one-shots 75% done that will be posted god knows when. I’m still working on Reparations the s8 avenge fic, GoT/ Black Panther crossover with @jenks-jinx that will be posted once it is completed. I got drabbles, unfinished oneshots collecting dust from Harry Potter and Star Trek that will eventually see the light of day. I got a lot of stuff going on in the background. Just not alot of posting LOL

Do you accept prompts? I have in the past but haven’t gotten any in a while. 

Upcoming story you’re most excited about? The Jonerys remix… I’m having fun writing and planning that. I won’t spoil which couple I got but it’s from my main forever fandom and I’m going 100000% hard on it. Muwhahahahaha

I’m excited about all my WIPs only because they are coming together and if you paid attention to the hints I’ve dropped you’ll see what’s coming. 

Thanks for the tag @thescarletgarden1990 nice distraction from editing. 

I’m gonna tag @danystormbornsnow @xdarksistahx @vitaelampada

tagged by @shen-gong-oops. Thank you so much!!

Fandoms you write for: the 100, Bellarke.

Where you post: Here.

Most popular one shot: Darkest of Marks. The feedback for that one was super encouraging and made me very happy at the time (still does when I receive a comment/kudos or notification someone has recommended it).

Most popular multi-chapter: I don’t write multi-chapter fics, mostly because I’m impatient and want to share all of my work at once. But I do plan on writing a 6-part AU at some point, which will include 6 mini canonverse AUs, with a re-incarnation trope/anomaly vibe.

Favorite story you wrote: Again, Darkest of Marks because I was so psyched for writing a Bellarke fic after watching season 1 of the 100, and You Made Me Human, because I couldn’t stop thinking about it and it made me feel things. Plus, I worked on that one for a long time and it’s my baby now.

Story you were nervous to post: All  four of them, for different reasons. 

Darkest of Marks because it was my first published fic and I wasn’t sure if angst was the fandom’s cup of tea.

Shadows Run from Yesterday because it was my second fic and I was afraid I wouldn’t live up to the readers' expectations after the first (+ I included themes/dialogues I didn’t really agree with but thought they would fit to the characters presented to us after season 1 - early season 2). 

You Made Me Human because I loved writing it so much but it made me feel exhausted and heartbroken at times, which wouldn’t make it the easiest story to read. (Also I noticed readers were/are much more quiet in the fandom now and there’s many many fics being written by many talented people, most of which are lost, unfortunately.)

Clean Water because it was a Secret Santa gift and I was nervous about the receiver’s reaction. 

How do you choose your titles: Song lyrics or song titles. I often listen to music when writing.

Do you outline: Always, because I never have the time for writing an entire story at once and certainly not every day. It has to be in pieces, even small paragraphs on some days. If I don’t outline, the fic might turn out to be a mess.

Complete number of stories: 4.

In progress: 1 or 2. A one-shot, certainly, for the Bellarke Big Bang (BBB) and the multi-chapter series of mini AUs I mentioned above.

Do you accept prompts: I haven’t received one so far, other than some requests to write “Darkest of Marks” from Bellamy’s POV, but writing a story twice doesn’t excite me as much, and I usually choose to write from the POV I think will allow the story to unfold properly and will leave the readers with as many questions/answers as the protagonist has.

Upcoming story you are most excited about: My BBB fic because there’s some interesting themes I’m excited to explore and I will get to collaborate with many different and talented people!

Tagging some of the authors I know will participate in the BBB, because I’ve missed many Bellarke stories and some fic recs/bookmarks for later would be amazing right now: @eyessharpweaponsshot, @katsbakers, @sassmasterblake, @blvke-bellamy.

If you’ve done this before, feel free to link me to the post or ignore it!

Fandoms You Write For: Harry Potter (specifically Marauders era)

Where You Post: archive of our own (ao3) and tumblr :)

Most Popular One-Shot: You Move In Your Sleep. A story about Remus watching Sirius’ sleeping patterns and comforting him after nightmares.

Most Popular Multi-Chapter Story: I haven’t written a multi chapter story aside from the Marlene & Dorcas fic i posted on here (title pending) it will be posted onto ao3 at some point once i refine it but here are the links to parts 1, 2, and 3 if you want to read it :)

Favourite Story You Wrote: one of my favorites is Beautiful Broken Boy which is a story about Sirius having a dissociative episode and having supportive friends.

Story You Were Nervous To Post: i get nervous to post anything, but the Marlene and Dorcas fic that i previously mentioned had me especially nervous as well as Can’t Do Anything Right. i tend to be more nervous about the stories that i haven’t really written before with characters i haven’t experimented with but it was fun to do :)

How Do You Choose Your Titles: it’s usually a phrase that i use in the story itself. i’m not very creative so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Do You Outline: not all of the time. if the fic is longer then yes, but most the time i just write what i feel. (although, i have been working on an outline for a multi-chapter fic i want to post so there’s that)

Complete (number of stories): i have 32 on ao3 at the moment although i have written and posted about 35 :)

In-Progress: no published WIPs rn but i am working on one so stay tuned ;)

Do You Accept Prompts?: yes i do, although it is hard for me to get to them right away just because of school but i do my best to get them as quickly as possible! i promise i’m not ignoring requests

Upcoming Story You Are Most Excited About: again, just refining my story about Marlene and Dorcas has been very fun for me as well as a multi-chapter fic i’m outlining (but i’m not giving any teasers away yet)

Tagging: @kattlupin @astoundinglymade @marlenemckinn @ashes-and-ashes-dust-and-dust @wo2ash & whoever else would like to participate :)
