hands - for the wip word guessing thing

oops i forgot about this!!

Except Alura won’t look at her, and there’s a tremble in her lower lip, her eyes over bright and creased at the corners, and her hands are shaking by her sides. Except Lucy knows her better than she’s ever known anyone, knows her so well that she knows there’s something else going on here.

originalhufflepuff a réagi à votre billet : one issue im having with writing this fic is that...

look, the way i see it, canon is there for you draw inspiration. but you can write whatever you want. changing things for the sake of change isnt a good reason imo, but you put out some valid points. if you think certain changes will make the story better, then go ahead.

this is how i see it too!! I like things that stick to canon as closely as they can when it comes to fic, but also, with monster rules and magical systems there NEEDS to be some kind of balance between the advantages and the drawbacks or it’s just boring?

Like, they don’t have fangs, they don’t have to kill people, they don’t burn in the sunlight, the only things that kill them are fire and werewolves, they don’t need sleep, they can go to church and go to high school and suntan in the backyard as long as they’re away from prying eyes

There are no bummers to being a smeyer vampire that aren’t just “okay, you have to drink animal blood” in addition to the usual immortality depression. 

And the flipside for what you gain is that you never age or die or get sick, you’re stronger and faster than anything else on earth aside from MAYBE the local shapeshifters, you’re virtually indestructible, and you automatically become incredibly beautiful. Sometimes you even get superpowers!! with very little inconvenience!!!!! i

Its not even like they go into how living off of animal blood physically compares to how it feels to live off of human blood!!!! being a vampire seems great and i want there to be a LITTLE spookiness left over. where spooky. they’re vampire

The single best Sterek fic I've ever read is "hope is the thing with feathers" (and the whole "where thou art, that is home" collection really), where Stiles saves the whole Hale family from the fire. Also, magic!Stiles is one of my favorites!

I’ve read that one and I loved it!!! And Magic/Spark Stiles is one of my absolute favourite tropes ever!! And if JD wasn’t such a coward, it would’ve been canon :/

2, 4 and 5 + Present Tense for the ask thing! (love your writing btw!)

Thanks!! This is one of my favorite stories, which is why I’m about to completely rip it apart. :D 

2: What scene did you first put down?

This one started with the beginning, which is...not that strong, which I found out when I tried to rewrite that bit from Felicity’s POV. So the beginning starts with a sentence that literally says “after everything’s happened and they’re sitting in a coffee shop,” which was I think written to get me started into writing this fic. And if it had been a short story, it would’ve been a decent beginning. But for as long as the fic ended up being, I probably needed to flesh it out somewhat. The first sentence implies that greetings and surprise have been exchanged at Laurel’s apartment, but Laurel finds out Shayna’s name in the scene itself, and trying to write the apartment meeting from Felicity’s POV made me realize: Laurel would have asked about that immediately.  So whoops. A stronger beginning would have been Laurel picking up her coffee, turning, and seeing Felicity. With a baby. What.

4: What's your favorite line of dialogue?

I like banter, so apart from the time I wrote Hill’s baking Tony a pie because feminism my favorite lines tend to be setup and replies. So here goes:

“I’m only complaining because I miss the social cachet that came with the title. I definitely don’t miss the eyestrain and the machismo in the break room.”

“Now you just get it from Oliver and Dig.”

“Those pussycats? Please.”

Yeah, I realize it’s slightly ironic that my favorite exchange is about men. But I like this whole conversation because one of the things I love Felicity and Laurel having in common is that they work in jobs that are very male-dominated and there’s lots of bonding to be had there. They’re the members of the team that hold down traditional jobs that aren’t handed to them—until Felicity inherits her company.

5: What part was hardest to write?

The kissing scene. I haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAte writing kissing scenes. God.

those are lyrics from the song Perceiving Red by Oak - which was a song face-off request from the person the post is dedicated to, my friend and fellow cowboy, Isaac.
