The last fictional character in your photo library, is the person you gonna sit next to in a 8 hour flight!

Trottie Book from Bookish! (I'm lucky, I was editing pictures to make the red pop, lol). Could be quite fun, I think. She's friendly, she'd probably talk to me, and we'd have stuff to talk about, she has lots of stories. This is also assuming that she's been moved from the 1940s to present day, I guess. XD

I just rewatched "L'art du crime" and made a bunch of screenshots / downloaded a bunch of photos on my phone, so yesss, I would gladly sit next to sunshine personified art historian Florence Chassagne for 8 hours straight, absolutely! Just look at this precious bean:

We would chat away, and I would ask her so many questions about European art, and she would tell me so many stories about artists and paintings, and I would be the most grateful listener. I want to be her friend so badly 😭

Trick or treat!

Happy Halloween, here's your treat!

Helen raised her gun warily at the figure in front of her, dressed too well for this place, dark and grinning at her as she kept it pointed at him. "You can't have that here." he informed her. "There aren't any rules about weapons in places like this. I know the rules." He titled his head at her, eyes glinting, lips curled to reveal slightly pointed teeth. Helen had the feeling that they would get longer if he actually thought she was a threat. "You do, do you? Interesting." "Not my first time in a place like this." Helen smiled a little as she said it, though it was her first time encountering something like him. He radiated deadly and cocky and the reason he probably hadn't attacked her yet was because he really think she was a threat. "Well, you can't have plastic here, Miss--" Helen ignored the obvious attempt to get her name. She was smarter than that, especially in a place like this. "I don't." "Your weapon does." She hesitated, then realized he was right. The grip and the magazine casing both were. Though she was sorry to do so, Helen tossed the SIG down in the grass in front of him. "Happy?" "All of it." "I don't have any more!" "Your clothes." "I do not wear plastic." Helen sniffed, a little offended by the accusation. She wore natural fibers. Even her shoes were leather, not the plastic kind that cracked and peeled after a few wearings. The man's eyes glinted, his teeth indeed lengthening just a little. "You are." "What are you--" Helen broke off, feeling her eyes widen. Her bra. Her underwear. Elastic. Those were the only things that would have plastic. And he wanted her to take them off. In front of him. And hand them over. Bloody hell.

Yes, this is a Teslen dangerous crow boy AU.

Welcome back! Fic writers ask one: 4, 6, and 10 please! 😊

Thank you! 😊

4 ⧽. is there an au or trope that you haven't written before, but would want to try?

I'm not sure if this is considered a trope or an AU because I've only seen the idea twice. (The sole fic I've seen this in was written by the wonderful @tina-mairin-goldstein )

But I'd like to do a fic where emotional wounds and scars become visible on the skin in different (unnatural) colors. Like reds and blues and greens and yellows and things like that. The pain of your soul displayed on your skin. Sometimes they'll disappear completely, but other times they'll just fade and stay.

It would be both a help and a hinderance in society. On the one hand, people can better understand your pain. On the other hand, they see it and they know, unless it's in a spot that you can easily cover it.

I've got this idea in my head of Helen and Will and Will thinks Helen is able to heal better because she has so little color, but then he realizes all her hurt can be hidden by her clothing and it really helps their dynamic.

6 ⧽. if you were to write a part two/sequel to a fic, what fic would you want to write it for?

Hmmm. This is hard, because a few of them do have planned sequels if I could ever manage my time properly and get my brain to brain. 🤔

Probably Strangers in the Night.

It was intended as a one-shot and I think it's perfect as it is, but I could see myself doing a second part or sequel down the road if I got inspiration for it. Helen as a queen is a really fun idea and Helen as a queen that's trying to make things better for her daughter than they were for her is even better.

10 ⧽. what genre is generally the easiest or most enjoyable for you to write? which is the hardest?

I think emotional pain/whump/etc. is the easiest for me to write? Or at least where the unhappy is woven into the plot with a lot of nuance. I think a lot of my fics display this (Confections is a big example, I believe).

The hardest is fluff! It never seems fluffy enough! It never seems happy enough! How do you fluff and keep it fluffy????? This is why I do Flufftober, because it's a personal challenge to me.

Also drabbles. Aghhhhh, you saw the drabble process and I started a new drabble series anyway.

Weird theory: your right foot is bigger than your left foot. :)

Nope! My feet are actually pretty much as even as they can be in size!

Though, random fact, due to the way I walk, I wear down the left sides of my shoe heels only and end up stretching out one (usually the right) shoe by overcorrecting for the unevenness. 😂

📝Helen/John + only one bed. XD

Oooh, you gave me Magnitt, you gave me Magnitt!!! *happy dance*

Ahem.

Okay, I'd want this to be in series, probably. Maybe some time during the Hollow Earth arc? (For King and Country gave us Helen/John + only one bed, didn't they! 😄)

I think I'd write it one of two ways--either have it be complete AU and John teams up with Helen and the others and they stay down there longer or instead of leaving he returns with them to the surface.

Scenario 1: He finds Helen after he gets away from Adam's minions and does go rogue at some point, maybe just letting Adam escape instead of taking him and leaving. Anyway, Ranna invites them to stay at least 24 hours longer, because of Helen's work with Kanaan, Gregory, and maybe to wrap some stuff up about Adam. Since they weren't aware of John, they don't have a room prepared for him and none of the others want to share, so Helen and John end up sharing. John tries to be a gentleman and take the floor or some other piece of furniture, but Helen shuts that down because he's hurt. They kind of bicker about it, because Helen's just gotten over dying of radiation poisoning, but end up sharing. They both agree to know touching since the bed is big enough, but they wake up cuddling in the morning and neither of them mind it.

Scenario 2: John shows back up as they're leaving, gets caught by Praxian guards, and Helen convinces Ranna to let him come back with them, which she agrees to. Back home at the Sanctuary, once everything has settled down, Helen insists on patching John up and does so. They end up talking in a bedroom (guest room? Helen's room? Not sure) about what happened and both of them are concerned for each other, but dancing around it. John's exhausted, Helen doesn't want him teleporting, and they end up sharing the bed. Like the first one, they end up cuddling and not minding it. (This is one is, admittedly, flimsier than the other one, because the Sanctuary is full of beds.)

I love the way you write banter, how you write Ashley and Henry with Helen, and your ability to write case fic. XD

Awww, thank you so much, that's so kind. 🥺💕💕💕
