5) only recently! my lovely friend zee looks over my things more often than not which helps a lot.

9) usually in order because it's easier for me to know how i'm going to write a later scene. but that's more a work-to-work thing.

strawpage answers that i didn't already reply to in comments:

17) definitely literary fiction. i love focusing on character more than plot, which you can tell by seeing how many of my works are just two people having conversations.

4) not super long. maybe half an hour or so

@SkittingCat the fic) and looked through travel blogs and reddit accounts to see what regular people thought of the cities / communities they ended up crashing in. + one scene where ekko talks about a painting by van gogh, which i had to look thru a lot of his works to settle on

@SkittingCat 11) definitely mango dripping, which is an arcane modern au where they went from one side of america to the next. i had a google maps tab open to keep track of the journey, what motels and restaurants they'd end up at (every place i chose was real, even if it was left unnamed in

@tunaclams tyty!

6) in bed, one specific playlist full of alt songs on, scrivener open after 10pm

18) kidfics... i think they're so fun to read they're a guilty pleasure of mine

[⟡ @beforetimez]

@ydmnnn 10) if i'm writing multi chapter fics lately i'll try to map out everything i want to happen from beginning to end, but for one shots it's more go with the flow

13) being able to sit down and write every day 🫠 i write so slowly when i'm not locked in...

[⟡ @beforetimez]

@box_a_spinners 1) leftover faces - first uu fic i ever wrote and i still really like the way i worked thru what i wanted to while not straying too far from the og characters

2) when i'm listening to songs or reading novels

8) blackbird humming... one day i will finish it!

uu spoilers / in love with the fact that parrot acknowledges how much pull lettuce has as a charismatic leader, even from prison under the castle

[⟡ @beforetimez]

uu spoilers / there's something kind of sad about reina trying to hand out food after joining parrot to get revenge for her friend who starved to death just to be rebuffed and shunned

[⟡ @beforetimez]

@box_a_spinners !!! congrats !!!

[⟡ @beforetimez]

@tunaclams yes! it's fun. that's why i liked the moment in the first vid of his king's arc where he went down to talk to lettuce about not being able to get people to follow him

[⟡ @beforetimez]

"lowkey wish parrot had a little bit more aura as king it feels like he's getting disrespected left n right" -> yeah but i'm also thinking it's purposeful. i've been turning over the idea that this arc is for the protags to be brought down to their lowest https://t.co/3D91U5J1Hj

[⟡ @beforetimez]

@midoltang yeah like they wouldn't really see the behind the scenes of him trying and failing to help people, just experience and feel the weight of large failures over smaller wins

[⟡ @beforetimez]

i need to get practice in but i like sharing my work too much to hoard my docs

[⟡ @beforetimez]

@playfulgambit

[⟡ @beforetimez]

@playfulgambit what if saparata came home from getting ragebaited at cindercrest meetings by flamefrags to his normal farmer roommate flux complaining about infinite lomedy farmers market beef

[⟡ @beforetimez]

@tunaclams i've been meaning to check those last two out i just keep getting busy

[⟡ @beforetimez]

okkk i think i lowkey might get back into reading and writing fics about danmeis... no one kill me
