Hi Frywen :) Hope you are doing well! Dropped by to request from fanfic ask meme: B, I, K, L, R, U, V please
B: Any of your stories inspired by personal experiences? Yes! The pregnancy in Revelations and Secrets was inspired by my own pregnancies, except I toned it down quite a bit. It was a really healing experience to write about bc I was straight up not having a good time when I was pregnant.
I: Do you have a guilty pleasure in fic (reading or writing)? Damsel in distress is my go to trope. It’s the best thing ever and you can pry it from my cold dead hands. I eat that up no matter the setting. You can throw me the weirdest aus or whatever, if there’s this trope I’ll love it.
K: What’s the angstiest idea you’ve ever come up with? Probably Seashell? Having Saizo watch his MC die without him being able to do anything about it. Yeah that shit hurt.
L: What’s the weirdest AU you’ve ever come up with? I’m not very good with coming up with aus, but maybe one with yokai? I haven’t written anything for it for ages tho, other projects have occupied my time.
R: Are there any writers (fanfic or otherwise) you consider an influence? From the SLBP fandom I think @yoolee has had the most impact on me. @jemchew made me try new ways of writing and I’ve loved to explore the different things I can do with English. And @thatlongspringnight has an amazing modern au and a way to write the mc without using her name. This fandom has so many writers I can’t
U: A pairing you might like to write for, but haven’t tried yet? I’m in very early stages to writing a fic with ikesen Mitsuhide/MC buuuut I’m not sure how I’m doing so far. I hope something comes out of this and maaaaybe after it I’ll dip my fingers a bit deeper in ikesen fics. Who knows.
V: A secondary (or underrated) character you want to see more of in a fic? Hideyoshi! He’s not at the top of my list but I think he’s severely underrated. He’s cunning and lovely and I’d love to see way more of him.
