phantomsforever replied to your post: Mormor headcanon questions?
This is a question more for you, as opposed to the boys…hope you don’t mind. :) Do you enjoy writing one more than the other? Do you find writing one harder than the other? If so, which and why?
This is an excellent question.
I like writing them both for different reasons. Jim is more difficult for me to write, but often more rewarding. It's still a challenge for me to get inside his brain - I have an easier time figuring out how Sebastian would act in a situation than Jim. I'm going to sound like an Insane Person here, but the way I usually get to Jim is through Sebastian, because he knows him better than I do. (Sorry for the crazy, but... I'm a writer? Is that an excuse?) But when I feel like I get Jim /right/ it feels incredible.
As far as Sebastian goes, I like him more as a person than Jim. I can relate to him better - he's my "in" so to speak when it comes to their relationship, and that's why most of DBliss is written sort of, behind his head more than Jim's.
Also, I like Sebastian because he's /my/ character. We obviously don't know him in BBC!verse, so what we have to go on is ACD canon and Kim Newman's book. Well, neither of those Sebs is in a relationship with my Jim, so obviously he had to be disassembled and rebuilt. And while I've borrowed from fanon and canon (tall, blonde, tiger etc) most of him as a person outside of, like, "facts about Seb" is mine <3
