5 and 6 for the fandom asks!

5: what is your favorite overused trope?

In a broad sense, I am a sucker for monsters/aliens/other non-humans who try to become human or understand humanity (which is one of the reasons I’ve latched onto tokusatsu). Within that very broad category I love the whump moment where one of those characters cries for the first time and wonders why they’re leaking.

6: do you read fanfiction? If so, do you have any favorite authors or fics?

I met one of my closest online friends through commenting on her fanfiction! I love Commie’s stories (aka dangerouscommiesubversive). She’s got a great writing style and a very good feel for all of the characters, which is impressive because she writes for a ton of series.

I’m also currently reading a massive Star Trek TNG fic called “May I?” by Ladyfogg. It’s about Data and his OC love interest, and it’s interesting because it started out feeling like unseen episodes of the show and now it is a straight up romance novel.

Thoughts on Gotchard?

ahhhhh i always struggle saying anything more coherent on gotchard than "it makes me smile!" i just love it to bits. hotaro is befriending little creatures and rinne is learning to open up to people and spanner is saying his silly catchphrase and the evil skateboard actually just wants to have fun and play and kyoka is exploring lachesis' body and KAJIKI my best friend KAJIKI is there and it's like. what more could you want from a show? well a stronger endgame arc and kamen rider wind to take a hike. but otherwise :)

Hi B! How about Before the Beginning for the ask game? ^^

BEFORE THE BEGINNING — three sentences (or more) about something that happened before the plot of my current project thank you, Linky 🥺💕 let me see what i can cook up. it's what happens before my "i don't know who you are, but i feel like i can trust you" wip c: (svsss, qijiu). Shen Qingqiu is reminded of a traumatic past event and loses his memories in his sleep 😌

Late into the night, there's a fire in the disciples' dormitories on Qing Jing Peak.

It's not a big fire, not by any means, but the dark, tear-wrenching smoke it creates as it catches on an abandoned blanket or another piece of fabric alarms Shen Qingqiu right out of his bamboo house. No disciple has ever seen their shifu move in such hurry, with seemingly no regard for his outermost layer missing - he must have been preparing for bed.

It's gone by the time he runs inside, paler than ever, taking in the state of the rooms.

"Shizun," Ming Fan mumbles and immediately drops in a bow. "Shizun, there was an accident, but it's all under control!"

Nobody's hurt. Nobody's unconscious. Except for Ming Fan, all the other boys are outside, still blinking sleep out of their eyes. Ning Yingying should be alright, too—the rooms the female disciples are staying in are on the other side of the peak.

"Who."

"Shizun...?"

Shen Qingqiu hates repeating himself. "Who started it?"

Ming Fan stays silent.

"In the morning," Shen Qingqiu says in a forcefully even voice, "all male disciples will kneel before the learning hall. If nobody confesses, all will face punishment."

He doesn't stay to watch the boy fumbling.

Sleep never comes easy, but it knocks him off that night—and it knocks something else out of place, too.

Trick or treat! 🎃

Happy Halloween! You get the opening to yet another unfinished fic in my files--this one's sort of a companion piece to the one I wrote ages ago about Batman meeting Hongo and then later Shoutaro and Philip, and is about John Constantine running into Haruto in London. He is significantly less laid-back about it than Bruce.

John is already three drinks in when the dragon shows up.

Granted, it doesn’t look like a dragon. It looks like an East Asian twink wearing a stylish outfit, a really tacky ring, and a goofy-looking belt. It feels like a dragon, though. He can sense it, coiled up in the twink’s chest and stomach, watching him. It comes right up to him at the bar, pauses a moment to peer at his face in profile as he continues to work on his fourth beer, and then says, in heavily-accented English, “Good evening, I am looking for you.”

“Sorry, love.” He doesn’t even bother looking over. “I don’t go for younger guys.”

This seems to confuse the dragon for a moment. Its admittedly-attractive human face frowns, brow wrinkling in puzzlement—maybe it’s upset that he’s not interested, maybe it’s just trying to figure out what he said. After a pause, in which he finishes his beer, it says, “You…misunderstand.” It points to its own nose, and then to him. “I. Looking for Constantine, ah…mahoutsukai, mahoutsukai…magic…holder? Magic-user. Magician! Looking for Constantine-magician.”

John maybe groans a little bit, but he doesn’t order a fourth beer, he just drops some money on the bar and says, “Sure, fine, let’s talk outside.” And then, once they’re outside somewhere relatively quiet, “So what’s a dragon want with me?”

More confused frowning as the dragon works this out, and then, “Oh! Ano…misunderstand. I, not dragon. Dragon is here,” with a tap on the human body’s chest, over the heart. “In me. Part of me.”

John’s about to answer how the hell that’s supposed to work when a huge golden portal appears next to them, and then he’s squaring up to fight when another young guy steps through the portal and it vanishes. That’s bad enough by itself, and then John looks at him more closely and says, “Mate, you’ve got a lion in your trousers.”

“Eh? No English.” The new guy pauses. “Français? Deutsche?”

“…no, I don’t speak French or German. Barely speak English some days.”

I would love to hear about the Kiriphite Spy AU if you have anything you wanna share! :D

I gave a rundown of what the fic will consist of in a previous ask.

But I can totally give little details from the fic!

Graphite's non-binary and I sort of based his outfit off Isshiki Uuultra C and Berg Katze from Gatchaman Crowds (link has a pic with Gatchaman spoilers but it has the Look™️), but gave it a reptilian flair inspired by his final Guren form

The fic is from Kiriya's perspective and he doesn't really learn Graphite's pronouns so he uses they/them for Graph in the narration

Kiriya's spy name is Agent Aries. I waffled on making this a Spy x Family reference for the longest time and calling him Twilight, but I ended up going with the zodiac of my headcanon birthday for him. (I don't know anything about zodiac personalities but I think he'd have an early April birthday.)

Calling this an "AU" is a bit of a misdirect, but I'm not going to say exactly how until it comes out :3 (the way the fic will be tagged will probably immediately give away what that misdirect is lol XD)

Also, thanks so much for sending in this ask! It's totally inspired me to work on the fic again!

Blorbo asks, 3 for the trashpups

*gasp* my dogs...

3. was there any specific point / any specific moment that suddenly made this character your Blorbo, or did you slowly grow to love them more and more until they became a Blorbo to you?

I think overall I can just say it is Bow Wow! Two Dog Night is the main reason for both of them. And is hard to say why and how without spoilers but I fully blame their confrontation at the end of the book. I would see a kidney to see that animated at some point, that confrontation did THINGS to my brain I cannot undo.

It definitely got worse during their reunion in Garuguru, but absolutely irreversible every time they interact in 5656
