For the fandom meme: N O Z L Please :)

Disclaimer: I’m still in Beyblade mood so...

I already answered L, N and Z

O - Choose a song at random, which ship or character does it remind you of

Might not be what the ask said, but Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and Kero Kero Bonito give me big Ming Ming vibes.

FOR THE FANDOM MEME: A Q X Z -

Thank you very much for asking!  I didn’t really expect people to ask me :3

A - Your current OTP(s)/OT3(s)/OTX(s)

I honestly prefer friendships more than romantic pairings but my otps would be Takao x Kai and Hiromi x Boris-looking at the holy content the fandom has brought us-. If I see some more content I have a feeling like Queen x Ming Ming will be added to this list as well. Still, I enjoy other ships a lot too!(the amount of highest quality Yuriy x Kai stuff is amazing) And I can say that my non-Beyblade otp is Zutara.

Q - A ship you’ve abandoned and why

I liked Takao x Hiromi when I was a child but not anymore.

X - top 5-10 characters who are yoUR PRECIOUS BABIES AND YOU WILL DIE DEFENDING THEM

they all are my babies!!!!! this question is very hard

in no particular order:

- Yuriy

- Olivier

- Max

-Kai

-Takao

-Sergei

-Emily

-Giancarlo

-Mao

-Kyouju

But still, hard question and many others could be included here.

Z - Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go (prompts optional but encouraged)

I’d like to start this TED talk with a concept: The real champion was not Takao, it was the person in the shadows-Kyouju lol. I’d like to think that, for example, if he was part of the Neo-Borgs, they would have won the last championship with a huuge gap with the other teams. I know that y’all don’t like the fact that Neo-Borgs lost that match without Takao but that episode was one of my favourite ones since my nerd boy finally got some recognition. Even though this boy is the tech guy who has been with the champion team 3 times in a row. Even Takao mocks Kyouju a lot when all he is doing is pulling all-nighters and trying his best! Also I don’t like how Max gets treated most of the show, that boy deserved better. My first champion is Kyouju and my second one is Max. These children were given us as the brains(along with Hiromi and Emily) and they were mistreated. Give the characters the treatment they deserve.(I didn’t talk about the bey-girl mistreatment since this subject is covered a lot,but yes, add it here too)

For the ship asks : 1,2 and 8...

First, thank you so much for the ask! I´ll answer these as good as I can. Since I´m mostly into Beyblade when it comes to shipping I´ll focus on that.

what is your absolute favorite ship? To be honest, I don´t have many ships of my own when it comes to Beyblade. What I mean with that is that I haven´t discovered many by myself, that I end up keeping for a long time. The first one that comes to mind is Mathilda and Sergei. Long ago there was some on the RP that had that ship for a while as I was new, and a time I RPed a Mathilda as well. It grew from there and can´t see myself ship any of them with someone else. Other ships I enjoy is Salima with Kai, Boris together with Rei, and I´ve also faintly touched upon Takao and Yuriy together. Mao and Rick is cute as well!!

what ship do you hate most? Hate is a very strong word haha but I do have a tendancy to like canon ships less, or, for some stupid reason not enjoy when I get ships shoved down my throat = them being very popular. This really changes depending on who writes them. Their headcanons. Always does. I don´t have a specific ship I just CANT stand. I´m thankful for that really.

what’s a ship you hate that most people like? Again, hate is the wrong word here. Let´s say ships I wouldn´t google for by myself and leave it at that. I´d say Rei and Mao? Yuriy with Boris? Hilary with Kai? I think some cases it´s just me not personaly “getting along” with one of the characters. All the while, I have probably stumbled across the ships written by someone great and bought it all even if I really wouldn´t have otherwise!

About the fic asks :- 8,15,33

8. Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it. (From Saving Part of the World, chapter 26)

Ian snorted. “We’re not friends.”

Hilary stopped. The movement was so sudden that Ian turned to make sure nothing had happened to her. She stood in the middle of the bridge and dropped her hood to look at him, a furrow forming between her brows. “We could be.”

Right. Sure. He turned away from her again to continue his path. “I don’t need friends. I have my team.”

Footsteps slapping against the slushy pavement told him she was hurrying to catch up. “Well, if you had other friends, you could tell them what your team did. Talking about things is good, Ian. When Tyson upsets me, I always talk to a friend—I talked to you and you helped me see that I was being unfair to the rest of my team. I couldn’t see that myself. Maybe if you talk about—”

“And give you weaknesses to exploit? I don’t think so. You forget Hilary, we’re rivals.”


“No, we are not. Our teams might be rivals in the beydish, but for the important things, my team will always support your team. When Garland injured Tala, Tyson visited him in the hospital because—”

“Don’t!” He barked out the word as he rounded on her, his hands fisted in his pockets to stop them from lashing out. “Don’t mention that,” he continued, voice soft but fierce. “I didn’t get to be there. They stopped me from going and now they’re doing it again. Deciding things and not including me and it’s not fair! I’m not a baby, I’m not a child. I was a soldier in the Abbey just like they were.

I love this scene because it’s the beginning of Hilary and Ian’s friendship which is a really vital part of Saving. I love Ian as a character and I love Hilary and when I started thinking about Saving, I just had this image of the two of them and Amber becoming this little triad of “unimportant” people teaming up to save the world. But I was always worried about whether or not I could truly convey a friendship between two people who are very different personality wise and they’re not even on the same team. I wanted it to be semi-realistic. And it just kind of naturally evolved, and this is a great example of it, because while still being prickly and defensive, he trusts Hilary enough to let down his guard and confess his deepest secret. He loves his brothers, more than anything, but they left him behind and they are still keeping secrets from him. Not for a bad reason, but because they’re trying, in their way, to protect him. And having someone like Hilary to listen and give advice (and he does the same in his own way), is something that I really wanted to put into Saving. To have those moments of friendship in between the action, because without those relationships, why would we care if any of them survive? So yeah, this glimpse into Ian was a long time coming.

15. If you could choose one of your fics to be filmed, which would you choose? Saving Part of the World - it’s got such cool visual moments.

33. How do you feel about crack? Already answered in a previous ask :)

For the fanfic ask game: - 15 - 5 -18

15. Post the last line you wrote without context. But the figure slipped out of the shadows into the blue wash of light from the window. 

5. What’s a crackship you love? Um, I don’t think I have any crackships. I have non-canon but crack ship is usually a case of you’d have to be high to ship it. And I’m old school enough to still consider that the meaning of crack ship. Non-canon, though, it’s obviously MariamxBryan or I guess we could put AmberxKai as crackship. I could never ever ever happen but in fanfic.

18. Do you have a fic reading/writing routine? Not so much. I mean I write, a lot until I figure out the various puzzle pieces that will make up the rough draft, then refine them a lot untll it starts to click. Then I’ll rewrite until it clicks, send to my ipad and annotate it with the pencil to edit it and then do a final polish until it’s finished. So I guess that’s my writing routine and it serves me well enough. I also tend to have a mug of tea and a candle on to start as well. And I listen to a really random ASMR/Ambience video to get my headspace into writing mode.

Thank you!!!
