For the ask meme: K, N, Q, X.

K: What's the angstiest idea you've ever come up with?Probably the virtual world AU where Gozaburo wins and sets off a bunch of nukes and kills literally everyone on the planet except himself, Kaiba, Noa, Mokuba, and [whichever other characters I feel like keeping alive], and they exist forever in virtual cyberspace. The most miserable version of that is the one where he keeps Shizuka alive because “we need a woman”. A grim time for everyone involved!

N: Is there a fic you wish someone else would write (or finish) for you?

I’d like to see more takes on Kaiba & Gozaburo or Kaiba torture because I’ve written those themes so much it feels kind of played out in my own writing. Need a fresh perspective lol. I think also I have historically written Gozaburo too ‘soft’ and sympathetic, which some people have said they like about my iteration of him, but as an older adult I have a much harsher view of abusive characters like that. This harks back to what I said in my previous post, but there’s a desire to see abusers as really, truly the awful, ingenious monsters they pose as. Irl they’re always a let down, always losers, and that’s good in a lot of ways because abuse is born from the abuser’s own problems and is never your fault. But there’s something refreshing/comforting about the abuser turning out to truly be the perfect monster you always believed them to be, like it feels less like you were ‘weak’ for being abused, that the abuse might really have been in service of some greater design. And that’s an alluring thought so I tend to write Gozaburo with more emotional depth and complexity than is realistic for abusers. Maybe that sounds counterintuitive, to say I write a character badly because I write them with too much nuance, but I do think it’s an issue. The allure of the perfect abuser archetype is strong. And other writers (cough cough herobeater) are able to write Gozaburo so much more harshly and bluntly and realistically in a way I’m not really capable of.

So I want more people to write fics with Gozaburo basically lol.

Q: Do you have any discarded scenes/storylines/projects?I mean so fucking many lol. Probably the fanfic I wrote the most of and never posted was this Battleshipping piece wherein Kaiba develops severe insomnia and Mokuba enlists Jounouchi and Yugi to help him deal w it, but it was very self indulgent and I could never get the concept to work. I have a million short Gozaburo fics I’ve never published because they are traaash. I tried once to write a kind of Gormenghast-esque fic about the Kaiba bros coming to the mansion and all its weirdness but that was way too ambitious. Maybe one day I’ll properly finish my “Kaiba gets abducted and tortured” fic and post it, I’ve written a lot of it.

X: A character you enjoy making suffer.cough Kaiba. But I like making Jounouchi miserable too, only in different ways.

This is my gift for @Mechformers!  I chose your request of Clark/Dick.  I hope you like it!!  (On AO3 because of Tumblr’s bizarre anti-NSFW policy.)

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Your queue tag fucked me up, why this

Because when something fucks me up like that, obviously the only option is to share it with others in turn.
