💝what is a fic that got a different response than you were expecting? Ok I have 2 that really surprised me!

Keep Me Closer I wrote this thing in a few sprints and didn’t try too hard with it. Well, it compltely blew up (also thanks to some high profile people in the fandom really liking it and promoting it) and it’s by FAR my most popular fic. It kind of makes me cry because of how little time or effort I put into it vs some of my other fics that I slaved over and never got half the traction, but that’s life!

alsoooooo

Your Pain (is mine now) I wasn’t sure this one would be well recieved becuse things kind of ‘fade to black’ before the real fucking begins, so instead of a Porn Without Plot it’s more like Plot without Porn… oops??? I mean it’s definitely still explicit in the lead up, but it deals so much more with the emotional moment and heaviness than the sexy actions and I didn’t think it would get much attention. I was wrong! People loved that aspect of it! The immense positive reaction I got to it actually inspired me to write another fic exploring similar themes, and so far that one has gotten super huge positive feedback as well. I was surprised but pleased to see how many people like a heavy dose of angst served alongside their smut :P

💥find your least kudos'd fic - say something wonderful about it.

Curbside ok I actually adore this lil fic. It was more born from a sprint where I just sunk into the emotional moment and I loved the way I felt when writing it. I was listening to ‘call my dad’ by AJR on repeat and I didn’t grow up with a dad but I’ve felt that - when you’ve made bad life choices and everything is shitty and you fucked up, and you just want a protective figure to come save you and tell you that despite all the wrong choices you’ve made, everything is okay and they still love you - but alas Louis also does not have a true father figure in this fic, so instead of a saviour he has a toxic relationship to take his bad choices to another level. I always wanted to continue this into a full blown ‘co-dependant toxic relationship’ series but I never came back to it. Perhaps I will in the future because that is a dynamic I think is super juicy!
