Hello. I request one snippet of each, please and thanks.

friend!! hello!! lmao you know what, alright, fair—under the cut you’ll find five snippets (didn’t want to overdo it & also haven’t decided whether i’ll actually work up the courage to publish my kinktober work) so!

here are, respectively, the first three (coherent) paragraphs of

1. Hacker, Hater, Hero, Spy (HHHS) (soon. seriously this is like. 87% written, i just need to find a way to move them to a different location. you know how that can be. and also it hasn’t earned its intended M-rating yet);

2. Space Uber AU (i see it completely in my head i just haven’t been able to write most of it down in a way that makes sense to people other than myself. also i need to familiarize myself with the enemies to lovers genre and figure out how i can keep these two firmly in-character while NOT having them fall head over heels from the first);

3. White House Press Secretary AU (all of this is notes & rough draft stuff because this setting is unfortunately very differently loaded now than when i first started writing it so in its current form it’s mostly a lot of quippy dialogue between Lena & Kara, a White House correspondents dinner and then pages and pages of fragmented smut lmao. have you ever gone down a research rabbit hole because you were afraid you wouldn’t do the romantic climax justice? because this was a first for me);

4. Cowboy Kara AU (TFOT) (i know i’ve been talking about this one since before i started publishing The Shape of Soup & i STILL feel like i’m not quite in the proper place yet to write it the way it wants to be written);

and 5. Modern Royalty AU (TP&TP) (i discovered this week that i have SO MUCH WRITTEN FOR THIS ONE ALREADY and i FORGOT. i don’t understand how these things happen. i need to get back on this one it’s so fun & so far removed from what i’ve been doing);

i thank you & our other voting friends for making me dig through my WIP folder and getting me eager to pick these up again!

In the same vein as the other ask about your process: how do you write SO MANY QUALITY WORDS?

VERY ungracefully and with a lot of alternating between typing so frantically i pop the keys off my keyboard so i can get the ideas down before they disappear, and staring blankly into space for hours while my tea gets cold and then drinking it anyway

Weird asks: 28, 29, 58 :)

hey! thank you so much!!

28. five songs to describe you?

this is so hard, and definitely depends on the day/how I’m feeling. right now it’s these:

Beautiful life by Soll

Love will come through by Travis

This is me trying by Taylor Swift

Overwhelmed by royal and the serpent

Be kind by marshmello and Halsey

I have a whole other list for instrumental/ music from soundtracks, which is very different loll

29. best way to bond with you?

lolll put up with me? @theragingthespian could explain it better, she’s been friends with me for a long time. But umm...mutual love of long talks about moral philosophy. be one of the only people to watch Nancy Drew after I’ve talked about it nonstop. Being okay with random texts in the middle of the night about something totally stupid. but mostly I think just assuming we’re friends and going from there, I’m very introverted so usually I gotta be adopted by extroverts to make friends

58. four talents you’re proud of having?

I can play the piano, I wouldn’t say I’m good at it or anything but I have fun so. I’m proud of my writing, in that it’s easy. Even for work, which is only stupidly complicated writing, I can make it easy for the reader, and it’s definitely why I currently even have a job loll. I’m an awful cook/baker but I can make really good snickerdoodles and I’m proud of those cookies haha. and finally, I’m super talented at developing crushes on people who are very unavailable. ex. straight people or evan Rachel wood who doesn’t know I exist or the idle dream of marrying a British person when I’ve never even been to the uk

Nine and twenty! 💜

9. Fake dating or arranged marriage?     > MmMMmmMmmmMm,,,,,,,,,, I think fake dating? Because I’ve read more of those? But honestly, Noam’s fic is enough to tip the scales all the way in their favor, so.... hard to say! 

20. Do you have a favorite fanfic or author? If so, tag them/post a link and share the love!     > Okay, so, I know it’s not sg-related at all, but this is one of the fics that truly changed my life, LMAO: Matching-Muff Matrimony. It’s a Pansy/Ginny fake marriage AU, and I loved this fic so much that I used to listen to the audiofic at the gym (’:

roseticospacebae replied to your post “Bakery AU really is the comfort food of fics. It's so soft and sweet,...”

It’s always on my list of fic recs that I send people. ☺️☺️☺️
