4) Do you create things? What do you make? (Again, snzfic, art, wavs, videos etc)
I write, actually! I've done things in the past before I forgot about the blog >_> and I just posted a particularly sneezy start to a longish original fic. (That link will take you to the series, in case I have more pieces when someone checks it out.) I do a little art, but my style is FAR too recognizable by vanillas who've seen me so. Just snzfic. Unless, I suppose, I start into doing like, mood boards. I do love those.
5) What are some of your favorite tropes / themes?
Off the top of my head.... sneezing while hiding was a favorite since forever, but it's evolved into more... desperately trying not to sneeze regardless of reason? Maybe they don't want to wake someone, maybe they know they'll fit if they do "it won't be just one"? sucker for that. Maybe they're just tired and their nose won't give them any peace. It's just so good?
in line with this, "trying to maintain politeness" - and then getting home, perhaps into the arms of a lover, and just losing it.
One person having the kink, and the other person being persuaded that, even if they don't get it, it's sure af hot how it works / turns on their partner.
I can talk about this for so long but there are other questions. MOVING ON.
7) What is your dream scenario, either to read / see or hear / watch in real time?
Okay so less moving on than thought. I love your question combos though! Right on the nose. ;)
So my dream scenario... I haven't actually articulated this before, huh. Well here we go.
Leaning into Partner A having a cold. It's not horrible so much as they're exhausted; they've been sneezing all day, their nose is already a definite pink - not red, it doesn't hurt exactly but it's so sensitive and a little tender and A is just done.
Only A can't sleep. They're a little congested and even though they can still breathe alright, they've got this insidious tickling just crawling in their sinuses. More than once they've had to press the back of their hand, or a knuckle or a hanky, to their nose, hitchy and irritated and it just gets worse as the hours pass.
After all that, sometime when it's dark and beyond frustrating, they make a tiny miserable sound and B is up immediately. The little huff of frustration at having woken B despite all that effort is the last straw. They sneeze and sneeze and sneeze, but it's different with B to take care of them. Perhaps they're up a little longer, tea and a bit of cold but soothing salve on the cold-pinkened tip of A's nose. They go back to bed, and A finally falls asleep with their head on B's chest.
Something like that.
13) What snz-adjacent things do you love? EX: handkerchiefs, tissues, warm blankets, stolen hoodies, comfort items etc.
Really big fan of tissues / handkerchiefs so long as they're not used for mess. I cannot with mess.
Warmed blankets, or hot towels after a shower
Tea. Hot tea in a big mug.
Comfort items! Favorite mugs, favorite shows / books / music, stolen clothes that smell like their partner...
15) What are your top favorite ways to engage with your kink, by which I mean reading, looking at art, listening to .wavs / videos, browsing tumblr / forums etc.
Talking about "outside" things, I do a lot of reading and browsing Tumblr for it. I've been turned off for most available group things of late, but Tumblr's nice. I'd do Discord group servers but I shrink when there's a group.
However I adore writing it, or shooting ideas with friends, or even rp if someone is likeminded enough.
16) What are your top two (you can add more, but at least two) things you like to do most on snzblr? EX: creating new things, enjoying things other people made, sharing headcanons, lurking etc
Making / sharing things I've written or thought about
Seeing what everyone else is up to. Seriously, I am a voracious reader and this stuff has so much reread value, if you get me.
17) What was the tipping point that made you want to make a fetish blog?
Getting disconnected from the forum, honestly, as well as not really being a blogger in the older ways of LJ, IJ, DW etc. I just.... missed the life of the community, and I missed sharing my work. I'm hoping to make some friends but we'll see.
19) What would you like to see more of, and are you trying to promote / add more of that into the community?
Interaction! I don't know how much was here already, I've sharply curated my blog, cutting out people no longer active, still looking for more people to follow. I'm a writer, I thrive on interaction - it actually makes me produce more work. Happy brain chemicals, man, don't underestimate them. Ha!
Thanks so much for the ask, this was fun!
