Scribs, my love. I’m here to do your ask game 🙋🏽‍♀️

Can I ask 4, 5 and 7? 😏

SWEETHEART 💗

4. favourite dish specific for your country?

omg. thank you for this question. my gluttonous ass is sooooo happy! 😆 i am a SLUT for chocobud (chocolate budbud, pronounced bood-bood). it's sweet glutinous rice stuffed with dark chocolate and cooked in banana leaf. when done well, the chocolate comes out in a fountain of yumminess that overflows and puddles in your plate. 🤤 our neighbouring island does it soooooo good. it's so rich you have to share each piece lest you go into a chocolate coma. looks like this (grabbed from fb):

5. favourite song in your native language?

i am ashamed to say i do not listen to local songs. people here are pretty fond of super sappy, sentimental love songs which are just not. my. type. 😅 sorryyyyy

7. three words from your native language that you like the most?

see the thing is, i'm not even sure what my native language is. 😂 we have a national language but we don't speak it often because where i live, we have our own dialect (of which we are fiercely proud). and then because i come from an immigrant family (many generations), i'm ethnically different and we have our own ethnic dialect, too! 😂😵‍💫

anyway, for purposes of this ask, i'll pick words from my country's national language and my island's dialect.

(1) dagway - means "face"; it's a deeper synonym of "naong", which is another (more common) word for face. and i like it because there's a crudely funny ring to it that always makes me laugh when i hear it.

(2) hukuman - means "court". most people use the english-based word "korte" these days, so i'm always a bit thrown when i see this word used (if not in news reports, then in legal documents like certificates or embassy translations). the word is just so naturally ours, if you know what i mean, and so romantic that it makes me think back to the old days when people spoke our native language so beautifully.

(3) palangga/pinangga - means "beloved". i love it because it's what i call my doggy, and it's capable of cute diminutives like "langga" and "langging" (all of which i also call him! 😆). just an affectionate word, overall!

Thank you for the ask, love! This was soooo much fun! 💗 pls do rb so i can send you one back!

Scribs! How’s it going with JJK? 😋 Are you emotionally destroyed yet? 🥲

YALL SO EAGER TO SEE MY HEART BROKEN!!! 😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭

had to attend to some health stuff and am still getting over the last few dregs of fatigue so i've only progressed one episode since last (the other?) week. ☠️😭

BUT I SEE YALL'S FANART AND JJK THIRSTS KEEP POPPING UP ON ME DASH, so i can safely say that I am extremely proud of the Kabal's unceasing efforts to spread the message of horny across all fandoms and across all platforms.

Hi Scrib! Hope you’re doing well 🥰 I wanted to ask 6, 8, 11 and 14 for your deep write asks

feel free to exclude few, if they’re too many 😂

omo i didn't expect to get asked from that set! 😆 was rb-ing it for my writer moots as some of the questions are a bit too personal(?) for my taste 😅 all the same, thanks for the ask, Dass dearest. Will respond to a few! 🥰

6. what’s the hardest part of the writing process for you?

conceptualizing. orchestrating theme, plot, mood, characters, and motivations and getting them to work together. it's easier if it's a one-shot because i just have to figure out the punchline. but for longer fic or fic intended to be meaningful, conceptualizing can take quite some time and usually consists of letting yt autoplayer go wild while staring blanking into space 😆

8. does anyone in your personal life know you write fic? if not, would you tell anyone?

no, and noooooooooo. hahaha people do know i read and write for a living (though probably not in the way you imagine) and for a hobby, but they don't know what i write for a hobby nyehehehehehe >:))

11. Has a fic you’ve written ever caused issues/controversy?

nope! i thought a couple would, but so far i've been fortunate in that the works i felt uncertain about turned out to be the ones who led me to tumblr friends and mooties! 🥰

Thank you for asking!
