7, 11, 15, and 31 for the meme for fic writers asks!!
7. Share a snippet from one of your favorite prose you've written and explain why you're proud of it?
Not really a snippet, but I guess my proudness prose comes from my AoS fic, Intro!
I guess I love it so much...because it was the first time I had really explored Fitzsimmons without Daisy there in any shape or form. It was a reevaluation of their relationship and their relationship with Daisy. It's completely unrrated and was done entirely for me...and that's why I love this fic...and especially this scene\paragraph.
Jemma chuckled a bit at that, hugging him closer. Her long brown hair brushing against his forehead with the quick movement. “Not in this era…and besides, I had my forever with you although short…I’ve felt that overwhelming sense of being claimed by you in that way but Daisy hasn’t…and I don’t think just our love and inclusion into our relationship is enough for her anymore. We’ve changed, Fitz…and I know it’s not enough for you either.”
Fitz breathed in deep, closing his eyes against the overload of emotions trying to take over him. “Jemma…” he choked out.
“Because I know it’s not enough for me…and we’re the same, Fitz. I can’t settle for just for being ‘Fitzsimmons’! I know that we are better than the label that we’ve been stuck with for years! I want to be Daisy, Jemma, and Fitz in whatever way we can, together or not…but I can’t just be ‘Fitzsimmons’ anymore and I’m sorry if that hurts you, but it’s killing me trying to fit into what we’ve evolved from…”
“It’s killing me too, Jemma…”
11. Is writing your passion or just a fun hobby?
Oh, 100% a passion. I've always loved writing...had to work very hard at it, especially since I was told I'd never pass past a 3rd grade reading/writing level.
It's always been something I've wanted to pursue professionally. Combine the two things I love dearly. Movies and Writing...become a screenplay writer. So it's definitely a passion of mine.
15. If you could choose one of your fics to be filmed, which would it be?
Most definitely Me and a Gun...especially since it was a missing scene from AHS 1984 to begin with. I knew it wasn't going to happen in canon, so I wrote what I wished for.
And to have that filmed would have been glorious.
To see a meaningful convo between two sweet (or what I thought were two sweet exs at the time) that explored a sensitive and unresolved rift between them in their past relationship...while I also worked out some personal things in my own life through Xavier's pain and trauma. It would have been a dream to see that happen for real between two of my favorite characters...or two characters in general. It would have been so emotionally real.
31. Do you take liberties with canon or are you very strict about your fics being canon complaint?
Oh, heck no, I'm not strict about being canon compliant! Most, if not all, of my stories are AUs, Pre or Post Canon, or Canon divergent. I don't like the restrictions of being held within canon. It's messes with my creative flow if I can't take at least one liberty within my story and its characters.
I like my stories to be as original as they can be, while still playing and staying within the realm of canon characterization as I possibly can...but still make it as creatively OG as I can lol!
