I’ll tag @pandirpus @krokonoko @my-artblog-is-ssjumi @yallemagne @amberrgalaxy @swamp-y and anyone else who wants to do this. But this is a pretty long one, so don’t feel like you have to :3
(On that note, I’ll be putting most of this under a cut for exactly that reason)
How many works do you have on AO3?
131 at the moment. But some of those are different oneshots from FFN that I posted into one fic when porting over to AO3, so I’d be fascinated by what the actual amount of fanfics I’ve written is.
What’s your total AO3 word count?
1242922 words
How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?
Just counting what’s on AO3, so far I’ve written for 17 fandoms. They are: Free!, Professor Layton, Hades Game, Steven Universe, Pokemon, Ace Attorney, Yu-Gi-Oh DM, Yu-Gi-Oh GX, Yu-Gi-Oh 5d’s, Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Mario, Dr. Stone, Tintin, Night in the Woods, GetBackers, Good Omens and Cooking Mama
What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
‘just wanted to write a fic where senku says ‘get excited’ during sex’ (My SenGen oneshot that gets a wave of attention whenever a new chapter or episode of Dr. Stone comes out)
‘laughable’ (An Ares/Hypnos oneshot I wrote purely as a sample for a zine app and underestimated how popular that ship is lol)
‘the prince with specific tastes; the king with specific regrets’ (THAT Theseus fic. My absolute fave thing I’ve ever written)
‘Shallow Grave, Shallow Bae’ (A Reigisa fic based on Octopimp’s 50% Off! abridged series of Free!; I honestly do think this fic slaps and I’m glad folks like it)
‘Barrel of Monkeys’ (The AsaIku & KisuHiyo collab fic I wrote with Amber that was a lotta fun and I’d love to do something like this with them again one day for a different fandom. Also, I feel like we captained the small KisuHiyo fandom with this fic back in the day)
Do you respond to comments, why or why not?
I generally respond to comments. Almost always, unless I really can’t think of anything to say in reply, which is pretty rare. Comments make me so happy and I just want to let people who do comment know that I appreciate them.
What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?
I think the angstiest fic I wrote was a Free! fic called ‘Moves Across the Land’ - the premise of which is that Makoto died as a young adult of an illness and each chapter is a different person in his life receiving a letter that he wrote for them before he died. But that one had an optimistic ending, with Haru and Kisumi unexpectedly finding a newly strengthened friendship in sharing the grief of Makoto’s death.
So I guess technically the angstiest ending I wrote was a short Archie/Maxie oneshot where Maxie gets killed by Kyogre lol
Have you ever received hate on a fic?
Yes, but I ended up agreeing with it! Waaay back (probably more that 10 years ago at this point), I wrote a bunch of Layton/Rosetta oneshots that I now don’t stand by. One of them, in my naivety, I went too far with and breached uncomfortable territory. I got a couple of comments about how uncomfortable it was, so I ended up deleting that particular fic and felt better after it was gone.
Do you write smut? If so what kind?
I am a fledgling at writing smut, which is probably obvious to anyone who’s read my smut haha. When I do write it, I prefer to focus on the dialogue between the characters - I like a banterous smut scene. Also, they’re usually pretty tame. I like writing about handjobs, blowjobs and wanking the most when I do write smut.
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I know of.
Have you ever had a fic translated?
Again, not that I know of, but that would be awesome! A few years ago, a kind person messaged me about potentially translating my Layton fic ‘Grasping Liquid’ into French, but I don’t think they went through with it in the end. Though honestly, the dialogue and slang in that fic is pretty much illegible in English, so I reckon it’d be a tough fic to translate.
Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Yes, the aforementioned ‘Barrel of Monkeys’ that I co-wrote with @amberrgalaxy It was a lot of fun and I love it :D
What’s your all time favorite ship?
Hmm... I don’t think I have a single all time favourite. I jump through a lot of OTPs and they always mean a lot to me, but it wouldn’t seem fair to pick out a single one that’s always shined brighter than the others, because that’s not really how my hyperfixations work. But my current favourite ships are Momus/Heracles (to be narcissistic) and TheseZag from Hades Game. While my oldest ship that I’m still invested in is Yami/Seto from Yu-Gi-Oh DM.
What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?
Shockingly, I don’t have any right now. A few years ago (I think 2018?), I made a point of going back and finishing ALL my old WIPs that I’d left hanging but intended to finish, even for fandoms I didn’t plan on going back to. So that freed my conscience of them and felt pretty good.
At the moment, my only WIP is ‘if found please return to the underworld’ - an AU where Zagreus does make it to Olympus, so Hades sends Theseus, Asterius and Meg to try to get him back. But I’ve only just started writing that one, so I do hope to stick with it until it’s finished.
What are your writing strengths?
Dialogue. Definitely dialogue. I’m told that I capture the canon voices of characters pretty well and that’s always what I’m trying the hardest to get right, so it means a lot to me.
I also feel like I’m good at keeping a fic flowing, without being bogged down by too much detail. But the downside of that is that I often sacrifice description, so I still hope to find the balance. Since Hades Game has more flowery prose than I’m used to, I think getting into that series actually helped me with this.
What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?
I do not think I am experienced enough to be able to pull this off well and would worry too much about making mistakes.
What was the first fandom you ever wrote for?
It was Pokemon, but those fics aren’t online anymore. The oldest fics you can still find buried somewhere with my name attached to them are Sonic fics.
What’s your favorite fic you’ve ever written?
‘the prince with specific tastes; the king with specific regrets’ - Sometimes I look back at that fic and wonder if I actually wrote it, since I avoided falling into all of my usual traps: I researched it properly and frequently, I kept the focus on the five main characters instead of getting distracted by introducing a million other character like I usually do, I plotted the fucker out from start to finish instead of winging it, and I worked the flashbacks into it in a way that balanced the present-day out instead of distracting from it. Also, I got the whole thing written in about two months, instead of staling for years. ...Whatever possessed me when I wrote that fic, please come back. (It was the first time I’d had two weeks off together in about three years, so I think that had a lot to do with it)
OH YEAH and that same kinda villain OC who I recycle in every fandom I’m in actually landed this time. It brought me so much joy to see how much people loved to hate Momus. Those two months when I was posting that fic are easily a highlight of my life. :D

I got a separate one for My Hero so I’ll space them out, but here’s PURSE OWNER and the Senku is a Smart Boy ShowPersona:the first character i ever fell in love with: We started with Persona 5 and while I now love a lot of the characters introduced at the beginning of the game, the first one who really connected for me was Yusuke once they got him away from evil artist teacher and his TRUE ASEXUAL DORKINESS started shining througha character that i used to love/like, but now do not: idk I initially thought Makoto was okay, but then she got boring pretty quickly for mea ship that i used to love/like, but now do not: I’ve only been on this series for two minutes, so all the ships I liked to start with I still like now. It’ll be interesting to check back in like a year and see if I still feel the same way thomy ultimate favorite character™: It’s HARD to choose between Teddie, Akihiko, Mitsuru, Elizabeth, Adachi and Yusuke, but like one of themprettiest character: Mitsuru is gorgeous. even when you put her in the silly outfits in the dancing game she still rocks itmy most hated character: Yukari. I hate Yukari with the intensity that I would’ve hated a character when I was 13 and that’s pretty impressive. Also all the creepy men in P5.my OTP: Mitsuru/Akihiko(/Shijiro)my NOTP: Yukari/Minatofavorite episode: the part where Teddie comes to live in the Dojima house as Yu’s house husband in P4Gsaddest death: CHIDORI ACTUALLY. Like, Shijiro’s death was sad as well, but I appreciate the development it meant Akihiko could have, whereas Chidori’s death and learning that Junpei still dreams of proposing to her 3 years later was HEARTBREAKINGfavorite season: Gonna cheat and say that so far P3 is my fave for story, P4 is my fave for characters/gameplay and P5 is my fave for styleleast favorite season: The gameplay in P2 so farcharacter that everyone else in the fandom loves, but i hate: idk enough about fandom?? I like Chie fine but I’m not as into her as all the dudebros I see are?my ‘you’re piece of trash, but you’re still a fave’ fave: Adachi is the only right answer for this tbhmy ‘beautiful cinnamon roll who deserves better than this’ fave: Literally all the female cast deserve better tbh, but I feel like Fuuka and Haru in particular needed more room for their stories to grow. NAOTO DESERVED TO BE INTENTIONALLY WRITTEN AS A TRANS CHARACTER AND NOT WHAT WE GOT, poor naoto D:my ‘this ship is wrong, nasty, and makes me want to cleanse my soul, but i still love it’ ship: idk I like the concept of Yu having a one-sided crush on Adachi, but I don’t want it to be requitedmy ‘they’re kind of cute, and i lowkey ship them, but i’m not too invested’ ship: Joker/Yusuke is cute, but there’s other ships I like more for both charactersDr. Stone:the first character i ever fell in love with: senku was amazing from the very starta character that i used to love/like, but now do not: at first i thought tsukasa might be okay, but so far he’s been a pretty boring villaina ship that i used to love/like, but now do not: again, i still like all the ships i did to start withmy ultimate favorite character™: OOOHHHH SORRY SENKU BUT IT ACTUALLY IS GINROU SOBprettiest character: Sorry Gen, but Senku, Yuzuriha and Taiju all beat you in this category for memy most hated character: uuuhhh all those boring buff guys tsukasa sent after senku?my OTP: SENGENmy NOTP: Senku/Kohakufavorite episode: The one where Senku seduces Gen with colasaddest death: The only manga spoiler I’ve seen is that one of my best boys dies, but apparently this show loves death cheats, so I’m trying to stay hopefulfavorite season: There’s only one season of the anime so far, so that one?least favorite season: I like the one season I’ve seen lolcharacter that everyone else in the fandom loves, but i hate: I don’t hate them, but I wish Ruri and Kohaku weren’t just there for fan servicemy ‘you’re piece of trash, but you’re still a fave’ fave: GINROUmy ‘beautiful cinnamon roll who deserves better than this’ fave: Suica!my ‘this ship is wrong, nasty, and makes me want to cleanse my soul, but i still love it’ ship: That Ginrou/Chrome RP we had was full of NASTY LOL but I’m kinda into them now. also as a joke ship chrome/the old man lmaomy ‘they’re kind of cute, and i lowkey ship them, but i’m not too invested’ ship: Chrome/Ruri? man we need the next season so I can learn more about all these other characters I keep seeing from the manga and have opinions on ships with them
Favorite character: Zenitsuuu! Tho Nezuko is a close second :D
Least Favorite character: So far, all of the Hashira except for Shinobu and Tomioka. Cuz we've just had this huge group of quirky characters all dropped in our lap at the same time, told they're the strongest ever and that we have to care about them. I'm kinda waiting to be given a reason to care about most of them.
Character I find most attractive: Honestly? This is one of those series where I don't find the style very "attractive" in that sense
Character I would marry: I would marry the villain guy, cuz that seems to be the way to stay safe from him
Character I would be best friends with: Nezuko!!
a random thought: I really like that this series ended its first season with a long "downtime" arc focusing on the recovery of the main characters after the violence they've been through. You don't see that very often in shonen, basically forgoing a big season finale, and I prefer it this way.
An unpopular opinion: I mean, Zenitsu is my fave character and I gather that he's pretty unpopular, since he IS a whiny crybaby brat. But that's why I love him.
my canon OTP: Tamayo/Yushiro
Non-canon OTP: Zenitsu/Nezuko, unless they magically become canon later on :0
most badass character: Shinobuuu!
pairing I am not a fan of: I don't know the fandom enough to know about the ships. But I guess I didn't see the big deal with that Rengoku guy and I think people ship him with Tanjiro a lot, so maybe that?
character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): The Hashira, simply because they should've paced the introduction of these characters (like they did with Tomioka and Shinobu) to give them the impact they were going for.
favourite friendship: The main four characters have a super cute friendship!
character I want to adopt or be adopted by: Not Tanjiro's family lol
Senku/Gen
when of if I started shipping it: Pretty soon after Gen was introduced. I knew SenGen was a popular ship prior to Gen's appearance and it didn't take long for me to see why people love them.
my thoughts: SenGen is an excellent ship, no matter how you ship it. I like ace-aro Senku and Gen just cheerfully adopting to the role of Senku's house husband, since that seems to be what they're going for anyway.
What makes me happy about them: I've only seen up to s2 of the anime, but from what I've heard, even when the story cycles through flavour of the month companions for Senku, Gen ALWAYS sticks by Senku's side. And this makes me happy, cuz I hate in shonen when protag gets new friends that he suddenly starts to ignore the old cast (hello Yugioh GX). So, it's good for me to know that this won't happen with Senku and Gen.
What makes me sad about them: That it's probably not gonna be endgame, no matter how much more sense it makes than any other option, simply because shonen doesn't do that. :(
things done in fanfic that annoys me: I haven't read enough fanfics to know.
things I look for in fanfic: I just want to read silly fics based on the English dub with fun dialogue.
Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: Senku will always be with science no matter what!! As for Gen, maybe the archer guy?
My happily ever after for them: I have no idea where this series is going, but I'd like to think that Senku uses science to continually improve society and Gen sticks by his side.
who is the big spoon/little spoon: Gen WANTS to be the little spoon, but Senku doesn't get it, so Gen has to be the big spoon if he wants any cuddling at all.
what is their favorite non-sexual activity: Senku's is talking about science and Gen's is listening to Senku talking about science.
Icarus
How I feel about this character: After Momus, he's my next big fave new OC and definitely took the torch from Daichi for the "excitable unit who seems cheerful but has deeper issues than he wants anyone to know".
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Morpheus, ofc! But also definitely Apollo, Momus and Heracles. Icarus is just one of those characters who instantly has chemistry with others. I also still like Icarus/Zagreus simply because it didn't work out and Icarus has a pretty unique annoyance towards Zagreus.
My non-romantic OTP for this character: In "canon" for Greek myths it'd be Icarus & Asterius. I dunno about in the RPs, since Icarus is bad at making friends. Maybe Icarus & Hypnos, even if I wouldn't blame Hypnos for not wanting to see him again after The Wrong Name thing.
My unpopular opinion about this character: Icarus is cooler than his brother and Apollo is wrong for not seeing that!!
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: Oh, I think lots of excellent things are going to happen for Icarus.
my het ship: Icarus x Tisiphone, at least with Icarus having his crush on Tisiphone. I doubt it's requited tho
my fem/slash ship: All of the ships mentioned above. Maybe also Eros depending on what happens.
my OTP: At the moment it's still Icarus x Morpheus, BUT WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS WITH APOLLO. I also genuinely love the bonds he has with Momus and Heracles individually, so it's hard to choose.
my OT3: Icarus x Morpheus x Momus x Heracles
a head cannon fact: Icarus will never successfully invent anything, but he excels on improving on inventions that already exist, especially Daedalus's work. He has no idea how useful this would make him in the modern era. He also has the potential to reach godhood, but is too caught up in the "I'm just a mortal" mantra from his father to even think about it.
