for science.

Sherlollians:

What are your angsty sherlolly songs?

What are your happy ones? 

Please answer here. 

Thank you very much, science will be better because of your answers.

1. What made you ship sherlolly in the first place? (If it was a fic, which one was it?)

It Happened One Night showed me the light.

2. What is your fave sherlolly fanfic? I’m referring to the one you’ve probably re-read a few times and find yourself recommending? 

There are so many, I really can’t pick. Elixir BB, Lono, conchepcion, Megan, Broomy…they are all wonderful and honestly, I wanna pick their brains more than I wanna pick Mofftiss’s. And that’s saying something.

And of course there’s Petra and Emcee’s works.

3. Do you have any techniques you utilize before writing? Like do you brew a cup of tea, send a plea to your muse, read something, listen to music, etc? 

I live the thug life. I sit down. I write. I cry because I can’t. I walk away. I go to bed. BAM! All the inspiration. But laptop too far. Wake up in the morning. What was that idea again?

4. What made you want to write fan-fiction in the first place? 

I wanted to read a fic and it hadn’t been written yet. So, ta-da!

5. When you come across writers-block, what do you usually do to overcome it? 

Read more fics!

6. What’s your personal favourite of your own work, and why? 

Death and Flowers, but mostly the first part of the Mirror Verse. I wrote those on a whim and they worked.

7. What sort of reviews do you find encouraging?

Any reviews are encouraging reviews. Even the ones that only have UPDATE on them.

8. If you’ve ever felt like you’ve written OOC what do you do to get back on the right track? 

I always feel like I’ve written OOC. I rewatch Sherlock.

For research purposes of course.

It’s not like I started watching Study in Pink yesterday and didn’t stop until I realized I was on the Empty Hearse.

Not like that at all. *awkward coughing*

9: Outside of sherlolly what other pairings do you ship, and which one of those have you considered writing for? 

I ship Jane/Lisbon (the Mentalist), Spock/Uhura (Star Trek) Ten/Rose, Eleven/River, Eleven/Clara, Amy/Rory….a lot, but I’m only really comfortable with Sherlolly.

10: If you read fan-fiction, what are you usually looking for? Generally, what do you commonly read and why? 

SMUT. No. No, that was a childish answer. Um…I don’t actually have that much of a preference. Just write well and write in character (But I understand how tricky that is. As long as I can recognize some bits of the character I’m good.) and I’ll eat it up.

I was tagged by fuckyeahsherlolly. Not tagging anyone because I can't be arsed to come up with questions of my own. 

1. What made you ship sherlolly in the first place? (If it was a fic, which one was it?)

Longer than the Road that Stretches Out Ahead by sunken_standard.  It's just some really good damned writing. I don't think I've read anything that's gotten Sherlock's possible internal monologue so well.  And it's just fucking lovely. (Read the rest of their stuff while you're at it.)

2. What is your fave sherlolly fanfic? I’m referring to the one you’ve probably re-read a few times and find yourself recommending? 

See above.

3. Do you have any techniques you utilize before writing? Like do you brew a cup of tea, send a plea to your muse, read something, listen to music, etc? 

I really don't other than making sure I'm in a comfortable spot. If it's a WIP I haven't updated in awhile I read the whole thing again or at least the last few chapters. 

4. What made you want to write fan-fiction in the first place? 

I was intrigued by the dynamic between Sally and Sherlock and oops Six Underground happened. 

5. When you come across writers-block, what do you usually do to overcome it? 

I take prompts for 100 word drabbles or 221b ficlets.  

6. What’s your personal favourite of your own work, and why? 

I will always have a soft spot for the Post Mortem series, since they were the first Sherlolly fics I wrote, and That Dear Perfection because dammit, it's a novel.  That I wrote. And sometimes I go back and read chapters and I'm actually impressed with the writing.  (The Christmas Eve chapter is my favorite.)

7. What sort of reviews do you find encouraging?

When people say that it's super in character or in universe and when they compliment things I am insecure about like metaphors. 

8. If you’ve ever felt like you’ve written OOC what do you do to get back on the right track? 

I say things out loud and I try to picture the character saying or doing something.  

But honestly, I think that characters can do almost anything if you lay the foundation for those actions in a story. 

9: Outside of sherlolly what other pairings do you ship, and which one of those have you considered writing for? 

Sherlock/Sally, Irene/Sherlock, Irene/Molly, Irene/Molly/Sherlock, Donovan/Lestrade, Sherlock/Lestrade.  I think I've written at least one thing for all of them. 

10: If you read fan-fiction, what are you usually looking for? Generally, what do you commonly read and why? 

It depends on my mood. Sometimes it's all about PWP, other times it's about UST and a slow burn establishing a relationship and sometimes it's all about sweet already established domesticity and intimacy.  Though I'm always looking for dialogue that is true to the character voice.  Also, good characterization for the women. I will nope out of a fic so fast if Sally is portrayed as a one dimensional harridan.  I'm also kind of picky about Mycroft's characterization.  

I'm usually not into parentlock or too much fluff. Also really not into stories where Molly is saved from an abusive relationship.  I've only seen it done realistically once.

I'm a sucker for angst as long as it ends in a good place.
