Yakov/Jo "It's not that simple"

Send me a ship and a fic title, and I’ll post a summary of the fic with that title I won’t write.

A sadist? Yakov wouldn’t exactly describe himself as such.While he admitted that he did enjoy getting Joanna riled up every so often, itwasn’t out of a perverse pleasure to upset her or assert control. Rather, itwas so he could indulge in the rare pleasure of seeing that vibrant spark ofhers that she kept so carefully hidden underneath her quiet façade.  The flush of her cheeks, the flash in hereyes, and the rapid fire words that poured from her lips when she felt stronglyabout something were what he lived for. She was just so bloody cute andalive in those moments that he often wished they would never end.

Except when what she felt strongly about was in opposition towhat he wanted.

“No,” she shook her head as she gathered up her drawingmaterials into a pile, hands trembling. “No, no, no. It’s impossible! I can’tgo out with you on a date, no matter what you say!”

He crossed his arms with a frown. “Why? Do you find mypersonality repulsive?”  His heart surgedat the way her head snapped up to stare at him in wonder, signaling that he hadtouched a nerve.

“Of course not!” She looked appalled. “I wouldn’t be friendswith you if I didn’t like you as a person!”

“Well then do you not find me attractive?” he pressed on, knowingdamn well that wasn’t the reason, but he wanted to hear her say it.

She froze under his ice blue eyes, then averted her gaze ina poor attempt to regain her composure. “N-no…it’s not that…”

He let out a low chuckle at her admission.  “Then I do not see why you cannot go out withme.”

“Because!” she stammered, fingers scrambling to buckle her portfoliobag closed. “I can’t go out with a prince! I’m just a commoner, and a poorartist at that! Your people won’t accept me at all! I’m shy, I’m quiet, I’mawkward, and….”

“Utterly enchanting.”

“Yes! I mean, NO!” her dark hair swished wildly around herface as she shook her head. “I’m nobody of consequence and completely unworthyof you, Yakov!”

“Tch.” In two strides he was in front of her, the smirk onhis face gone. He took hold of her shoulders. “I care for you, Joanna. You carefor me. Nothing else matters.”

“But it’s not that simple!”

His lips were on hers before she could utter another word inopposition, erasing all protests, objections, and coherent thought from hermind.

He broke away with a low growl, knowing if he continued hewouldn’t be able to stop with just a kiss.  Pulling her to him, he leaned down to whisperin her ear, hot breath sending goosebumps all across her skin.

“Yes,” he murmured, “it is.”

Angel: what are three things you love about one of your close friends? (you can name them or not)

What!? I can’t just name three things I love about just one of my close friends. It just can’t be done cause there’s so many things I love about them!

I love how they are kind and caring, how they always support and encourage me every step of the way. I love how patient they are with me when I gush about things I love or when I am curious and ask a lot of questions. I love how they genuinely listen to what I have to say. I love that they let me lean on them when I need to and they let me do the same for them. I am grateful and love how honest they are with me to call me out on my bullshit and are willing to give me a chance and help me to be a better person. I love them even when they tease me (you know who you are and I still say you guys are meanies XD). I love my dearest friends for loving me and letting me be a part of their life and share in their ups and downs. They are a treasure that I shall always cherish. :)

I am very sorry, I shouldn't have assumed. So, I'll try again. Fanfic meme, number six, number eight, and number twelve. Thank you.

it’s ok! <3

6. What’s the detail you wait on bated breath for readers to notice?

hrm this really depends on the fic tbh. I’d have to say a general category of things, which is the way I write mages at their craft. it owes a lot to my own practice irl, and that’s why there’s very little rote casting of spells or focus on the mechanics of spellcasting. it’s all about focusing will and movement of energy and sensory details. I’m always waiting for another Reiki healer to have a “lol i see what u did” moment reading the way Gisele and Marisol heal people though Vessel of the Spirit for instance.

8. How often do people catch onto your little details?

it’s about 50/50 I think. stuff like obvious references to pop culture stuff (eg. Khedira dancing on the water in Crestwood), sure. more obscure things like the callbacks to real world occultism tend to fly under the radar. I throw a lot of those in my fics.

12. What’s the hardest thing to write for you?

Fight scenes. Always been the bane of my existence. I’ve gotten a lot better at them with years of practice but they’re still a lot like pulling teeth. Dancing scenes might actually be worse for me though, which is hilarious considering how many friggin dancers I write.

Writers asks, odd numbers

✍ Finally, an ask-meme for writers! ✍

ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?

5, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 - answered here

47, 49 - answered here

01: When did you first start writing?

I think I was in second grade when I wrote my first story. I think it was about a lonely little flower who was unloved. Apparently I was a very angsty seven-year-old.

03: Are you an avid reader?

I used to read a lot, but I haven’t read as much in the past few years since I started writing fics. I feel like the time I spend that I’m reading should be spent writing instead lol

07: Have you ever been part of a critique group?

Not really. As part of schoolwork I give feedback to my classmates on their assignments but that’s about it.

09: What’s the worst piece of feedback you’ve ever gotten?

“Your logline should only be 55 words and yours is 56.” Gee, thanks for the quality feedback LOL

11: What’s your favorite book cover?

I don’t really have one? Although a naked male chest never hurts LOL

13: What’s your favorite writing quote?

“The way to write a book is to actually write a book. A pen is useful, typing is also good. Keep putting words on the page.” – Anne Enright

17: Would you like your books to be turned into TV shows, movies, video games, or none?

YES YES YES ALLTHE YES I’M ALWAYS A SLUT FOR GETTING MY STORIES OUT ANY WHICH WAY AND THEN SOME!

19: Do you prefer writing on a computer or longhand?

Computer.  Over 20 years of typing instead of writing longhand has caused my penmanship to deteriorate dramatically. Plus my hand isn’t used to it anymore and tends to cramp if I write longhand longer than 30 minutes nowadays :/

21: Do you outline?

I’ve generally written fics in my head several times before writing them down so it’s sorta outlining but not really. I’m learning how to outline in school though and I think I’m going to try to use that more to keep better track of my ideas for my larger novels and screenplays.  Writing in my head works for fics but I don’t think it’ll be effective for the bigger projects.

23: What’s your favorite & least favorite part of making characters?

Favorite: Imagining what they would look like, that’s fun.  Least favorite: Trying to make the girls all not me LOL. It’s hard coming up with interests for the girls that aren’t my own oops.

27: Which is your favorite genre to write?

Romantic comedy.  I can say writing eBae was the most fun I’ve had writing a fic in a long time.  I like love and I like laughing and I like to write fics that include both!

29: Which do you find easiest: writing or editing?

Editing.  Reworking what I have is super easy. It’s getting down what I want to say in the first place that’s the hard part. :P

31: Have you ever been published?

Nope but I hope to be someday!

33: Are you interested in having your work published?

ALL THE YES in fact I plan on self-publishing.

37: What’s your oldest WIP?

Just last weekend I started work again on my Fairy Tail Gajevy fic “Blue.” I have the plot all mapped out in my head but I haven’t finished writing it all. I’ve been getting some comments lately from people wanting me to continue it so I thought I’d try to finish it. I guess technically my GrayLu fic “By My Side” is older but I haven’t touched that in over a year and it’s a much larger project than “Blue” and there hasn’t been much call for it lately.  I still want to finish “By My Side” at some point though, I’m really proud of it!

39: What’s the weirdest story idea you’ve ever had?

At one point I was going to write a Love Letter From Thief X story where Kenshi and Riki switch bodies. The reader would have been Kenshi’s girlfriend when this happens. She then has to go to a friend’s wedding out of town and share a room with Kenshi, who is now actually Riki, who has had a crush on MC and makes a move on her in Kenshi’s body.  And though she knows it’s Riki she’s used to responding to Kenshi’s body and uh-oh oops they do it. She then goes back home and feels like crap and then Kenshi comes to see her, except he’s in Riki’s body, and he says he misses her and then he makes a move and even though it’s Riki’s body it’s her Kenshi inside and uh-oh oops they do it. And there’s angst and drama and smut and yeah IT WAS WEIRD hence why I never wrote it lol

41: What do you do when characters don’t follow the outline?

I go with character and change the plot to what the character would do.  If you make your character do something OOC it will bring the reader out of the story. Once the reader is taken out of a story, you’ve lost as a writer.

43: Have you ever killed a main character?

Not yet but I’m sure it will happen someday.

For the writers asks, multiples of 4?

✍ Finally, an ask-meme for writers! ✍

04:Have you ever thrown a book across the room?

No. That hurts the book. My iPad (secured in an otter box) however has found it’s way down a staircase.

08:What’s the best piece of feedback you’ve ever gotten?

Any feedback is good feedback - constructive anyway. I don’t necessarily write for others - it really is just because the scenes haunt my thoughts and I need them gone - so when someone tells me they liked a story or my characters - it really makes me feel… surprised and happy. Like… oh hey people do read this.

12:Who is your favorite author?

Hmm… I really like Shakespeare - I’m a total nerd. But more modern I like Frank Peretti alot. Lewis Carroll. 

16:How do you feel about movies based on books?

I like them. But with the strong knowledge that they are two different beasts ENTIRELY. A book is something done by the author whereas a movie script is merely another person’s take on the author’s book - meshed up with budgetary issues, a director’s vision, amongst a host of other things. 

20:What’s your favorite writing program?

… don’t have one. 

24:What’s your favorite & least favorite part of plotting?

Plotting… so like… how you think through scenes? I like it. It’s the in between scenes part that bogs me down… stupid transitions.

28:Which do you find hardest: the beginning, the middle, or the end?

Already answered… but middle… I guess.

32:How do you feel about friends and close relatives reading your work?

Hmm... I don’t know. I mean. Jay’s my best friend and shes the first one to read any of it. So that’s fine. And one of my other very close friends reads them too (non-voltage anyway... she doesn’t know I’m here). My family I’d prefer not to ... let them think I don’t have as twisted a mind as I really do.

36:Do you listen to music when you write?

ABSOLUTELY. Music is a main contributor to ALL of my stories. Most of them (if not all) have a ‘soundtrack’ or like an inspiration song.  Like The Show Must Go On is directly connected to ‘Girls/Girls/Boys’ by Panic! At this Disco for me.  (It’s also my favorite story so I shamelessly promote it all the time.)

40:Which is your favorite original character, and why?

Well, Josie is, I guess. Since it’s not really me - a very ... exaggerated version of me. But otherwise I don’t really have any.

44:What’s the weirdest character concept you’ve ever come up with?

Well, uh... weird... is an interesting term. My fantasy stories are weird I suppose. Instincts and Desires and Feathers and Scales. The TaJoTe series is weird... to me.... a lot.

48:If you could write the next book of any series, which one would it be?

Oh.. HAHA. No. There’s no writing past these silly fanfics for me. I’m not that good nor shall I claim to be.

Fanfiction Author Appreciation Day - therandomgoddess

I have yet to play Kissed by the Baddest Bidder, but when I read therandomgoddess‘ Soryu smut, the image of tracing the tattoo along his back almost made me rethink my stance on the game. When I next read her Edward fic where our Flower Prince could actually really talk to fairies I was hooked. She’s since become a dear friend who has been instrumental in pushing me to follow my own writing dreams. She’s a lot busier these days but she’s always appreciative of anyone who wants to help her catch all these plot bunnies she keeps finding...

Favorite Cia fics:

His Suprise, Her Pleasure (Soryu)

Roguish Eyes (Edward)
