ENCHANTED AU???

ENCHANTED AU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is one my favorite wips that i'm DYING to write and i... haven't?? but CONSIDER:

Robin is a fairy tale character that goes around singing and talking to animals (the chipmunk is totally called Dustin, this is very important) living her best life until she runs into Prince Steve of Andalasia! and then uhhh maybe he falls in love because that's what princes are supposed to do right? and then people want them to get married! but robin is like uhhhh i dont love him?? this feels wrong??? and oopsies somehow she falls into another dimension :O !!

now Robin is in the real world! in new york!! and she's about to fall from a billboard and die... but she's caught by Nancy Wheeler! the very serious, skeptical, boring journalist that stopped believing in love and fairytales and yet she can't help but help this extremely weird woman that starts singing at any given opportunity and OH LOOK THEY FELL IN LOVE. nancy tells robin that in the real world she doesnt have to love a prince, she can love another woman, steve shows up and he just wanted to save his best friend, maybe vecna is a dragon???

i'm missing some of the plot but you know the movie. it's just that. but lesbian!! also! the men are interchangeable. like Steve would make a perfect prince and maybe eddie is nancy's best friend? or jonathan would be a good ex husband, or he's dead, or he's nancy's boring boyfriend that is instantly forgotten as soon as robin shows up. maybe eddie is the fairy tale prince and steve is nancy's exhusband that goes with eddie back to andalasia or vice versa. idk the guys are not my priority. the real question is does nancy still have a daughter? is it max?

the point here is that nancy learns how to believe in love and magic again via Robin serenading her through New York <333

29. 29. 29.

29. give us a spoiler for one of your stories.

lmao well since you technically asked three times...

thriving in the apocalypse

Truth be told, she doesn’t really know the protocol for this. She’s only ever told one person, and she was technically still high when she did it. Will is incredibly brave, she thinks. Because of that—and because of everything else—she longs to make this as easy as possible.

“Will,” she says softly, then waits for him to look up at her again. “Do you want to tell me more, or do you want me to talk?”

-

this story that we found ourselves in

“I was going to say let’s light a fire and be all cute and stuff, but…”

Nancy tilts her head, and Robin can’t help but stare at the enticing smirk on her lips. “But?”

“Bed,” says Robin. “Now.”

-

and not a snippet but, in the flayed!robin au, there's a scene where robin begs nancy to shoot her

ALRIGHT BUT WHEN OR WHERE IS THIS FLAYED!ROBIN AU COMING OUT

as for now it's self contained on tumblr :/ BUT I AM WRITING IT I PROMISE!! i am currently writing the rebel robin au after being contained on tumblr for so long i've decided it needs a full fic, but i'm still on season one if we're sticking by show canon. sadly flayed robin would not make her appearance until season two :(

as for when and where, i can't guarantee an exact schedule of release, but whenever i do post it it'll be on ao3 and i'll probably link it here on tumblr too!! until then though, feel free to scroll my flayed!robin tag if u need some content to keep u going!!!

I DOUBLE DOG DARE YOU TO ANSWER ALL OF THEM OR AT LEAST 10 OF YOUR CHOICE

HA BET. I WONT REFUSE A DARE. I chose 10. Also still fangirling over the fact you like my writing BEE TEE DUBS 🥹

7. Any worldbuilding you’re particularly proud of?

Yes!!! While somehow may not be my favorite of my fics, I’m very proud of the world building! I wanted to put an Upside-Down twist on lycanthropy and I’m very excited to flesh that out more when I finally get back to that fic!!! I love golden retriever werewolves as much as the next person, but I wanted a spooky, slimy, Upside-Down demogorgon-y werewolf for this fic!!

8. What song would make a great fic (to either write or read)?

I have. So many. Let me just link the playlist and pick a favorite to ramble about LMAO

I’ve been thinking a LOT about “Kissaphobic” by Makeout Monday and how it could relate to Nancy “comphet” Wheeler falling for Robin and being afraid to kiss her because it makes it Real.

11. Are you partial to a certain character/pairing or are you more equal-opportunity? If you are partial to any character/pairing, why do you think that is?

I’m obviously very partial to Ronance! But! I have a special place in my heart for Buckingham and Chrickie and even Rockie (if the Duffers give Vickie an actual personality). I think Ronance to me is most appealing in part because they’ve,,, actually interacted, but! They’re both such easy characters for me to project on and write for. I love their dynamic and the push and pull between them?? They’re both intelligent women who can kill you. And you cannot tell me that Nancy, who has struggled and been looked down on as a woman in a male dominated work space, didn’t fall in love with Robin while she was ranting about crybaby Petey McHugh. Jonathan and Steve could NEVER.

15. What’s your favorite AU that you’ve written?

Maybe cheating since I’m two whole chapters in, but she will pull the trigger on you (and the trigger is of love). Allow me to be sappy for a sec, but this fic is a combination of my favorite tropes and my own little love letter to the community of mutuals I’ve been accepted into here on Tumblr. I’m taking all our shared headcanons and common tropes and trying to pack it into one story. It will probably be literally Insane™️ but that’s half the fun of it! And the excuse to write enemies to lovers and SLOW BURN TENSION OH BOY. The inherent homoeroticism of being hunted by a monster hunter!!! BANTER!!! And I just. I just fucking love werewolves okay.

30. Have you ever written something that was out of your comfort zone? If so, what was it, and how did it affect your approach to writing fic thereafter?

Yep. I have written one (1) smut fic. That was?? It wasn’t terrible, I just have NO IDEA what I’m doing and the pacing felt weird and I’ll be the first to admit that I am getting over being kind of a prude LMAO

38. Did any of your fics get surprisingly popular (whatever that means to you)? Which ones? Why do you think they were so successful?

Definitely! run away (crying to your soul) was my FIRST fic ever, and it’s not even finished, and it’s right on the cusp of like,,, 10k hits? It’s not my best writing, it’s absolute crack, the pacing is Wrong, the dynamics are a little meh, I know I can do better!! But!! It is still my first fic, so I’m proud of it for that! I’m just surprised it got as popular as it did ajskskksks. I’d guess it’s honestly mostly due to the fact that it’s pretty lengthy and when I started it WAS updating very quickly. Idk man, it’s a fever dream.

41. Link a fic that made you think, “Wow, I want to write like that.”

HEY DON’T MIND ME LINKING ONE OF YOURS BUT,,, a never ending story is just… Wow. You can TELL when a writer has experience in poetry and I will lose my mind every goddamn time. I’ve never been good with poetry and I will always be jealous of writers who are able to pull from that to write some of the most heart wrenching prose you’ve ever read. Another really good example is anything by @sapphicriley / khalasaar!!!

43. If you take/write prompts: what’s your favorite prompt fic that you’ve written?

This one isn’t on AO3! I had an angst prompt that I was actually really proud of where Robin and Nancy have an argument, within the SSMH au! Link here!

48. What’s the last fic you read? Do you recommend it?

I already mentioned it on 41, and obviously YES. But before that, amongst the rubble and stone by signsoflight. And yes again!! I LOVE outsider POV fics, it’s such an interesting way to examine characters we love and the worlds they inhabit!! This fic does an excellent job of that without the main character being a huge focus! And I just love Nancy Wheeler! Sue me!

49. What are you currently working on? Share a few lines if you’re up for it!

I have like 6 recently started WIPs RIP. But! The one I’m most excited for right now is a Christmas fluff fic based off a prompt by @gaymessallday ! (I know it’s November but I’m slow and I want to post it around Christmas ahskskskks)

Essentially, Robin and Nancy are strangers on the same flight, get stranded due to snow, and end up stuck in the same hotel room for a couple of days

Boarding the rest of the plane took ages, but Nancy resolved herself to listening to her music and making a game—counting every person in a Christmas shirt—in her head to ease any pre-flight anxiety. A couple in matching reindeer tees. A child in a snowman sweater. A grandfather with an inappropriate Santa joke.

She counted twenty seven by the time the line ended. The seat beside her was empty, and Nancy breathed a sigh of relief—

Too soon.

Twenty eight, a gangly girl with honey hair and the ugliest Christmas sweater Nancy had ever seen scrambled down the aisle. She was apologizing profusely for being late, all the way to her seat—right beside Nancy.

“Hey, sorry, don’t mind if I just scooch in here,” the stranger said, grinning, something lopsided. Nancy gave her a thin lipped smile.

“Window seat, huh? I love watching the cities go by,” the girl continued, buckling in. The safety spiel had begun, but the stranger did not stop. “Of course, I’m not trying to get you to move! The aisle seat is cool too. Less crowded, easier to get up to pee mid flight!”

Nancy was beginning to wonder if this girl ever shut up.
