Weird, I thought Iād answered this. Oh well, better late than never.
1 - Describe your comfort zoneāa typical you-fic.Ā
After hurt/comfort? Probably really quiet emotions between people who arenāt good at talking.Ā
2 - Is there a trope youāve yet to try your hand at, but really want to?
BDSM-verse. I want to write it correctly, and not as a bastardized Alpha/Omega dynamic fic with no concept of how BDSM works.
3 - Is there a trope you wouldnāt touch with a ten foot pole?
Oh, lots. One of them is rape recovery. Allusions to rape? Fine, if they make sense. Threatening rape? Certainly. I even, once, in the mists of time, wrote a noncon fic for a kink meme. But thereās this very specific trope that goes like this: chapter 1, X gets raped; multiple chapters are devoted to Y fixing them with sex; last chapter X is fine. And I just canāt write that. Or read it, honestly. I just canāt.
29 - If you could write the sequel (or prequel) to any fic out there not written by yourself, which would you choose?
I actually do this already! I wrote a prequel to āThe Goatās Backā by arsenicjade, I wrote a midquel for rufeepeach's āa hundred years or more,ā and I wrote a homage to nillys-issue's fic at one point. But, hmmm, one I haven't done yet? Huh. I don't know.Ā
My thing with writing extensions is that it has to strike a certain cord with me. I have to find a specific kind of opening that works in-story. Like, I adore cyprith's Modern Magic AU, but I wouldn't something for it because it isn't finished itself and it's not the right thing to jump off of. IĀ could jump off of āhundred yearsā because there was just this tiny narrative gap that I could fill that pushed a button of things I like.Ā
I write fanfic-of-fanfic when I find something I can do that with. At the moment, I donāt have one.
