1. Describe your comfort zone—a typical you-fic.
- my comfort zone... fluffy humorous one-shot, I suppose. at least that’s what I can gather with one look to my AO3^^ usually The Hobbit and Bagginshield
7. Share a snippet from one of your favorite pieces of prose you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.
It was getting late, and Bilbo sat on a bench outside the Company’s quarters. The Dwarves had been bathing in the fountain again and were now chattering and eating and whatever they tended to do after bath. Bilbo sighed, relieved that he didn’t have to be there, he wasn’t feeling particularly sociable at the moment. He leaned back and looked up. Fireflies had stirred after sunset and were now flying around. It almost looked like they were dancing.
  “I used to think they were stars.”
  Bilbo jumped. Thorin sat on the bench, leaving a good gap between them, and continued, “The fireflies. When I was a child, I’d never been outside, but I’d heard of stars.”
  This was the first time during the quest that Thorin had voluntarily approached Bilbo, and he wasn’t sure how to take it. It was… rather nice, actually. The fireflies continued to buzz around them. Thorin looked at them for a while, with a distant look in his eyes.
  “Having been born inside a mountain, never having been outside, I’d never seen stars in my life,” he said with a low voice. “People had told me stories about them, how they twinkled like the most beautiful diamond. Then this one time I wandered into a cave and there were thousands of twinkling lights, more beautiful than any gem I’d seen. I was well into my youth when someone told me they were fireflies and not stars.”
  Well… that made sense to Bilbo. But why would Thorin tell him any of this? It wasn’t like they were friends or anything. Not that he minded, of course. Bilbo now found that there was more to Thorin than the grumpy exterior he always put on…
I’d wanted to write that scene for so long and I procrastinated a lot because I was afraid it was gonna be boring or stupid or something, but then something snapped in my head and I found the right words, and this is the result. it’s the best thing I’ve written so far^^
37. Talk about your current wips.
- Khebabmudtu is a very light-hearted prequel to Amnâs and covers DĂs and VĂli’s love story^^ @euseevius described it as lesbian Dwarf rom-com, and that’s the best description for any of my fics ever^^ it’s very relaxing to write because it is, as said, very light-hearted and fluffy, and gods it feels good to write about f/f ships with a happy ending. I’m gonna start writing chapter three this weekend and it’s gonna be about DĂs and VĂli’s wedding. after that I’m gonna cover the births of FĂli and KĂli, and then how they leave to reclaim Erebor with their uncles.
38. Talk about a review that made your day.
- @euseevius had a massive Amnâs-verse liveblog and I couldn’t stop giggling while I read it, her reactions were so cute <3 her comments are honestly the best, I can sense the enthusiasm and joy, and... okay, I’m tearing up a bit because just thinking about this makes me so happy^^ and whenever @determamfidd comments I have a mini heart attack because omg my fave author comments my stuff is this the real life is this just fantasy aaaaaa!!!!!!
