Thank you for the ask! Like the last one, I wanted to give this a good, hard think because I just canât give a simple, straight answer, can I? The answer must be a reflection of my gay ass after all lol. Â
19) Are there any stories that youâve written that youâd really love to do a sequel to?
There are actually several ones that Iâve been considering writing sequels to. Not all are fully formed ideas though, but I can think of three on top of my head:
-         Take my life and set me free again is one I wrote for Sledgefu week the first time around, I think (?). Itâs a really whumpy fic for the prompt âwoundsâ and kind of gives a glimpse of how said wounds has affected Snafu and Sledgeâs life. Itâs one of the fics that I am personally the most happy with and I have always thought about writing a very angsty origin story for it â which I have a draft to somewhere, but considering all my ongoing projects probably wonât become more than that unfortunatelyâŚ
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Youâve been fighting the memory all on your own is another Sledgefu week one I wrote back in 2018. While it was to fill the âcollege AUâ prompt, I kind of left hints and suggestions to it actually being a reincarnation AU which I have been very tempted to write fully. I love writing scenes with life-changing revelations and such, so itâd be fun to write one where Sledge and Snafu of the college AU would slowly come back to their original selves â but then again, would that ruin the mystery of the whole thing? Who knows.
-         The truth runs wild like the rain to the sea is my Snurgie  magnum opus â lol, joking, but it IS my lengthiest Snurgie fic to date (discounting the fact Iâve been sprinkling FRtoB with Snurgie here and there â itâs the gay agenda, what can I say). And while I really enjoyed writing that, it takes a long time to set Snurgie up convinclingly, and now that I have done that I really want to play more with the gay angst, domesticity and just coping, you know? The idea I have is that it would pick up where I left of and have it play out by the Pacific as Burgie says goodbye to Florence, and all the things that it would cause and transpire â maybe even write it from Snafuâs perspective? Endless possibilities, that is for certain.
-         Future runs through our bones has more of a spin-off than a sequel. Itâd be easier to promise a sequel if I had actually finished the original fic, but I am not perfect lol. BUT, since I AM a bitch for Snurgie and I have decided that FRtoB is Sledgefu end-game, I wanted to give Snurgie the spin-off they deserved by writing something very dark and super angsty. Funnily enough, I have almost finished the damn thing, but I just need to sort out some stuff for it and settle for some details for it myself before I can declare it finished. If I will upload it though, that is another matter because I honestly am a bit worried it is too much as it handles some very dark themes⌠but once I have decided I will be the first to announce it, especially if I do actually decide to publish it lol.Â
21) Tell me about another writer(s) who you admire? What is it about them that you admire?
For writers whoâs written for the Pacific fandom, the first people that comes to mind for me is @snafusheltoneyes, @scrapeourshoesonthestars and @getmean. They are all very talented writers who always build very interesting narratives for their characters, which are always very on-brand and true to life (according to how they are portrayed in the series). They always have water-tight plots as well and you can tell theyâve done their research in advance, which I admire because I know how much work goes into that. They are also really nice and genuine people, which is maybe what I admire about them the most. Bonus is that they have all been around for as long as I have, so I am not the only oldie around lol.
