7. Your favourite ao3 tag
OUGH. hard one. I do like hurt/comfort... that one is very broad but it is a good one. and is also the most popular in my ao3 bookmarks. so I will say hurt/comfort I think. I do also like Hugs. and Mental Link (this is very surprising to many people I'm sure). also Ambiguous Relationships... and Non-Sexual Intimacy. <3
18. First, second, or third person?
usually third, but I do LOVE second person when it's done right. it can be so so good. both to write and read. I'm not a fan of reader inserts but there's ways to use it for regular narration that HIT. my own fic que morrer é da vida is in second person and I like that one a lot. so is hope is a fragile thing, which is a bit older but I still really like the idea of Empires citizen POVs being in second person (like in the name which I got as a gift in Recursive Exchange inspired by my fic and is also really good).
also: the pray for disaster series is a FANTASTIC example of second person done well. different fandom (MCR's Danger Days) but even if you're not into MCR at all you should still read this. skeppy recommended this once and I read it despite barely knowing anything about the album's lore and I got HOOKED. it's so so good
29. What's the hardest thing about writing?
hm. hard to pick one definitive thing but I would say finishing things. I'm so good at writing things that get abandoned along the way because I lost motivation or inspiration or interest in the characters/fandom/etc, or confidence in the fic in general. admittedly I have been worse at this in the past and since getting into QSMP I've been way better about actually posting fic but I do still struggle with getting things done sometimes
also TITLES. titles are hard. don't always love having to pick titles
