Fanfic/Author Ask Game! 17, 29, 34
17. What is something you recently felt proud of in your writing?
I was trying to think of a fanfic that would cover this answer, but honestly, I think I'm going to have to go with some of my most recent poetry. Most of these are love poems to Loki (god not Marvel/MCU). Refinery is about the refineries I grew up seeing on the north side of the city I was born and lived in most of my life. Wyrd is a protest piece of sorts. Let me see if there isn't a way I can post it up in this response:
29. How many times do you usually revise your fic/chapter before posting?
Before posting? HAHAHAHAHA. I mean, I sort of read over it, but I'm pretty impatient to get the fics posted pretty quick, and then I tend to go back and read through it and edit as I find spelling/grammar/punctuation mistakes OR ways I'd like to reword something.
34. What is your favorite fic to get comments/messages on?
There are a couple of ones I love getting comments/messages on:
Too weird to live, too rare to die - Justin Hammer/Loki in 'verse but divergent post-Endgame fix-it. I love getting comments on this one because it's such a rare pair (literally, I am the ONLY person so far to write this ship ever ever ever) that I'm happy when this fic gets some love to it.
To eat that burning heart out of his hand - Stephen Strange/Kaecilius, AU, no power AU, Modern Normal Life (haha normal might be a bit subjective on this one). I love comments on this fic because I went so far out of my way on this one to weave in the Hannibal and Lord of the Rings/Hobbit references, to really lay in heavy with the Easter Eggs, and I love it when people read it and get them and are forced to love this fic in all its horror and humor.
Breaking Inside - X-Men 3 Fix-it where Scott lives instead of Jean murdering him and getting away with it. Granted, this is just the Part 1 of a three parter, and yes, I still need to write the other two parts. But I really love getting comments on this one mostly because they're usually along the lines of "I hate Jean Grey, too!" Same sentiment about Charles Xavier as well. It's nice to find unity in how much we can't stand that woman and how sick and tired we are of her getting away with literal murder (or outing a past and present version of a character and still somehow winding up one of the most beloved women characters in the franchise).
All the currently written and posted parts and chapters of Hemispheres - Loki/Tony Stark. It was never meant to be this long or to go this long unfinished. But I haven't given up on writing it - if nothing else but to spite that one commenter who assumed that it had been abandoned and flounced out without leaving a decent last comment. This is a serious love song in a way to the Frostiron ship, and I will continue it, so all comments, esp all loving and positive comments, go a long way toward me wanting to keep it going until I manage to finish it.
Behind Blue Eyes - Emma Frost/Loki. Writing this fic and taking it through the twists that it went through made me fall for this ship big time. Another rare af pair, and the comments always make me happy to see others loving them together as much as I now do.
Never Piss Off a Telepath; Or How Logan Opened His Mouth and Said a Stupid Thing - Logan/Kurt, minor Emma/Scott. I love getting comments on this one because they're always hilarious, esp when they read through Logan's "pregnancy cravings."
Reach Out and Touch Faith - Kurt/Logan. Generally, I love the comments on this one so much because the fact that they fuck in a confessional tends to shock people, and I love pissing off Catholics so, so much.
Obviously, I love comments on ALL MY FICS PLEASE AND THANK YOU GO COMMENT NOW, but these are all ones that tend to shock, surprise, confuse, or generally make people laugh.
