for the music asks!

3:A song that reminds you of summertime

11:A song that you never get tired of

24:A song by a band you wish were still together

27:A song that breaks your heart

Okay, it only took two months to figure out the answers to these very difficult questions. Made more difficult with the realization that my Walkman from college still works and has 756 songs on it. Not all of those songs got added to my Spotify over the years, so I got some nice surprises of "oh I totally forgot how much I like this song!". Fun fact: All songs listed are on this Walkman, and only 1 didn't get added to Spotify.

3:A song that reminds you of summertime

Hmm, I'm gonna go with a throwback:

Curse of Curves by Cute is What We Aim For

Why? It was part of the initial mix for the homecoming routine I learned freshman year of high school. AND it was part of a mix one of the other girls suggested for the homecoming routine my senior year. Basically every time I hear it I think back to summertime learning cheer routines.

11:A song that you never get tired of

Okay, I considered going with Jimmy Buffet but I decided on:

Split Personality by P!nk

P!nk has been a mainstay for me since M!ssunaztood and Split Personality is the reason I ended up getting her debut album. Sometimes I don't care about getting all of an artist's albums, but this song had me go "I have a mighty need!".

24:A song by a band you wish were still together

Oof, I had to actually remember what groups are no longer together and actually stayed split up. (looking at you MCR, FOB, Yellowcard)

My, Oh My by The Wreckers

Their album, Stand Still Look Pretty, was one my sister and I practiced our harmonies on.

27:A song that breaks your heart

Another P!nk song:

Beam Me Up

This was the backdrop of my Mert being in hospice, when I was torn between trying to go down and see her one last time in person as soon as exams were done and remembering her the way she was. I ended up not going down, and less than 2 weeks after my mom got back from her last visit Mert passed.

For the fanfic ask game: 👀 Do you have any words/phrases you use habitually? ❤️ Who is your favorite character to write for and why? 🤔 What’s one genre you’ve never written that you’d like to try?

👀 Do you have any words/phrases you use habitually?

Okay, this one was hard so I'm gonna wag it and say having characters fidget with their fingers when stressing. Definitely a habit I've had them pick up in the past few years.

❤️ Who is your favorite character to write for and why?

Ino - we don't get to see a whole lot of her in canon so we're shown glimpses of her. I like the ability to delve into her a bit more, especially since she's one of the few characters that has a good relationship with her family. But because I like adding angst, just because her family relationship is good doesn't mean the rest of her relationships are smooth sailing.

🤔 What’s one genre you’ve never written that you’d like to try?

I tend to pull from multiple genres when drafting and so have a bunch of attempts that never get posted - either because I'm still figuring out where the story is going or I realized the scope was too big and I've since fallen out of the active fandom. So, with the idea that trying includes posting my attempt, I'll say time travel. I currently have one plot bunny hopping around that idea.

what's a ship you like that you think most people don't?

is there a ship you used to like but don't anymore?

Most of my favorite ships are rare pairs, so I'm going to pick...Kankuro/Tenten.

I tend to view ships kinda of like books, I may put them away for a while but very rarely stop coming back to them. That said, Ron/Hermione is one I used to ship and no longer. I appreciate the friends to lovers trope, but the older I get the more I view them as a seasonal relationship for each other. They'll explore it but ultimately realize they are better as friends. I think they both need to grow on their own outside the Trio.

for the ask! ☔

Is there a fic concept you have that you'd like to just explain and share because you're not sure you'll ever write it? If so, what is it?

So this is an idea I have a few snippets so far, but no overarching plot as of yet. It's been in my drfts folder for over a year. A few things to know about me: I like time-travel fics, fix-it fics, multiverse fics, and the idea of people just missing each other.

This idea is for My Hero Academia. It's Endeavor and Rei focused. I think I was hit with the first plot bunny shortly after beginning classicequinox's 'Where your love has always been enough (for me)'. And I think everyone should check that out. One of my favorite ShieldShock fics is lost to time, because I didn't save it. It involved Darcy in a plane crash and then jumping through the multiverse. My idea would fit in with that grouping.

The Space Between Where I Am and Where I Was (Inescapable) Hit with a random quirk, Enji and Rei are faced with a scenario beyond any of their wildest nightmares. Not only do they wake up in a different time, they wake up in each other's bodies as well. As if that wasn't strange enough, any time they go to sleep after they risk waking up in a different time and swapping bodies again. Never knowing if this next night will end with a return to normal.

This is obviously an ambitious idea - they all start out this way - so I have to figure out the required beats and how I want this to end. I like the idea of them basically rebuilding their relationship and Rei's trust in Enji, but since the lead up is canon-ish I'm not sure if that's possible. So at least rebuilding Rei's trust in herself and changing how Enji sees her. It's big enough, that right now I just keep it on the back burner and poke at it when I think of it. But I'm not sure if I'll ever actually write it in its entirety.
