FanFic Ask Game F, G, and I please
Thanks love for your questions 💕💕
F: Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.
Okay, there are a lot of dialogue scenes that I’m so proud of. Dialogue is one of the things that I absolutely adore to write and it usually comes fairly easy. The first one is from my first fanfic I ever posted on Tumblr One Cappuccino and a Chocolate Brownie, Please:
John tilts his head. ‘That must make you twenty nine then?’
‘Close, I’m thirty. My birthday is March 21st. How old are you, if you don’t mind me asking.’
‘I don’t mind,’ John says. ‘But guess.’
‘No, I can’t do that. I always manage to hurt someones feelings. Just say it, John.’ I take a sip of my wine and it tastes really amazing. It puts all the other wine I’ve ever drank to shame.
I choke on my wine. I start to cough and have tears in my eyes, causing me to gain the attention from other people in the restaurant. ‘Goodness gracious, John. How on earth are you fifty? What is your skincare routine? Who does your botox?’
John chuckles. ‘I don’t have a skincare routine nor someone who does my botox.’
‘You don’t have a skincare routine?’ I ask. ‘That is so unfair. I pay hundreds of dollars every month, so my skin can look like this and you don’t do anything and you look like that? How are you real?’
‘I don’t look that good, Darcie.’
I scoff. ‘You are insanely handsome. You look so good already, imagine if you had a skincare routine.’
John looks a little bit shy and lets out his giggle, that I’ve come to love. ‘You are adorable, Darcie.’
I felt like this conversation really told something about the characters. Darcie was obsessed with her skincare routine, while John Wick looks like a total snack 😍😍
And the second one is not technically a dialogue, but it’s a text message conversation from the fic Mister Cavill, your dog is kinda fat:
Henry: Everyone, I have good news!
Henry: And no, Olivia is not pregnant, so you can unclench your butthole now.
Niki: Butthole unclenched, now tell us what the good news is.
I laughed a bit too hard writing this 😂I heard: ‘unclenching your butthole’ on YouTube once and it forever stuck with me hahaha
G: Do you write your story from start to finish, or do you write the scenes out of order?
I try to write my stories from start to finish, however I do write ahead a little, when there are parts that I desperately want to get to paper. However, I tend to write my epilogues when I’m halfway done with the fic - giving me extra motivation to finish it, because I know how great it is going to end hahaha
I: Do you have a guilty pleasure in fic (reading or writing)?
Writing men who are so incredibly soft 🥺😍
This was so fun to do! Thanks again for the questions!
