Thank you! 💜💜💜

5. Is there a tiny detail in one of your fics that you feel goes tragically unnoticed?

I have two things, kinda...

First, my chapter titles in Keeping Score. I know chapter titles are just a throwaway detail, and they're whatever, but I worked really hard to find musical terms that were also just terms that get used in speech so most people would know what the mean *and* that had some relevance to the chapter.

Second, in Freefalling, the panel that Mickey has to repair is 21-19, which is a reference to the Gallagher house... And then the shut off to use if there's a problem is the next but one panel, which is a reference to Kev and V... I was pleased with the little Easter egg but no one ever commented on it 😭😆.

I guess I didn't really *expect* anyone to notice either of those things, but... A part of me always secretly hoped someone would 😆.

10. If you could banish a single trope to live at the bottom of the ocean, never to be seen again by any human eyes (or at least your own), which trope would that be?

8. favorite coping mechanism? honestly not creative at all but listening to music with headphones on. i get very easily overwhelmed and have a lot of sensory issues and i also don't do very well with long periods of time in the presence of other people, so i depend on music a lot to get through the day

9. whats your favorite love language? not necessarily gift giving, more 'being thought of'. so when people see or find something and it makes them go wow girl of underworld would like/love this and they make a point of telling me (or buying me said thing, like a book, let's say), just! people making a point of saying they think of me when i'm not around. i like the ideia that my presence is all consuming to someone, like i'm an itch you can't scratch

Hi and thank you! 💜

Simple asks.

1. What's your blog title from?

"Annisefreya" dates back to my Stargate fandom days. Anise was a really minor character I liked on SG-1, and I misspelled it because I'd never seen it written down... Annise was my forum handle, then became an email address, then became my online name forever. 

"As yet untitled" is just because I never came up with a title but didn't want to leave it as the default 😆.

(Bonus: My sideblog title is a Shameless show quote "was I just invited to a sleepover" and I picked it partly because it's a great moment, and partly because I saw one of the "join the fandom" posts and thought it was so lovely that people were actually trying to reach out to lurkers and get us to join in... I don't like imposing myself on spaces where I'm not invited, so it was a big deal to have people saying "come on!" even if not to me specifically).

6. What's your hair routine like? Anything special?

Lol, no. I wash it daily, because I feel greasy if I don't. Then I brush it. Ta-dah! It's really fine so it dries quick. I use the hairdryer on special occasions.

20. what do you wish someone would ask you?

... 🤯

I will not be taking questions at this time

AGREE 100%

i've been thinking about this since about 5pm yesterday evening because i went to Applebee's with my wife and mother-in-law (ballin' on a budget) and got a (surprisingly good) one with a little chocolate pocky as a garnish! so cute!

hi jodez!! 💛 i hope you're having a lovely saturday 🫶🏻

3. what are some tropes or details that you think are very characteristic of your fics? i feel like it's very difficult to notice patterns in your own work so i'll share what others have told me! i tend to write stories where the characters grapple with the emotional weight of their parental relationships without the parents being actually physically present in their lives, whether by choice or by death. subsequently, found family and friendship are huge themes in my stories, as well as coping with trauma and growing beyond it. i looooooooove writing slow burns because i love tension and yearning and pining and angst. i think it makes for a really compelling story and a lot of opportunity for personal growth and development along the way. i love the word "tingle" and an "oh. oh." moment a little too much. and because i have such an animated "voice" in my head when i read and write, i love italics. like yes, you will emphasize those words the way they're intended to be emphasized! you will read the story with the inflections and tone i intend for it to be read with! this is my house!

12. are there any tropes you used to dislike but have grown on you? i was never really a "friends to lovers" girly (don't hate me) but i'm finding myself liking it more and more. but i feel like it's one of those tropes that needs to be really well written or it can fall totally flat!

13. are there any tropes you used to like but don’t anymore? TIPDIG ruined all other mafia stories for me, in a good way. it's a god tier story and i just find myself comparing all other stories involving organized crime to that one. so i tend to avoid them now, even though i looooooooooved them before!

I could send you mine if you think it might help? I had to write one a couple of weeks ago and having my friends as a reference helped me
