mango: when and why did you start your blog?Oh gosh... I think it was in 2012? Something like that, I don’t know where to check, but I started it a) because everyone was talking about Tumblr, and b) so I’d have a sort of home base for all my fic writing

toffee: a card game that you're good at?Cards Against Humanity because I’m a sociopath

Wait…so I SHOULD watch Riverdale?

Tbh no lmao - I can’t even say it pales in comparison to Twin Peaks because it doesn’t even do that

The writing is mediocre at best, it queerbaits you to the moon and back, the cast is diverse but of course the only canon pairing in the show involve the only two white people of the main cast, they broke up the one LGBT canon pairing and it was completely unnecessary, there’s major ace erasure, the Riverdale fandom (Especially on Tumblr) is downright horrible, the “plot twists” are meh and they try to be edgy but it doesn’t really work out - it’s your typical CW teen drama show so tbh it’s enjoyable when you can’t find anything else to watch

Jello shots!!

Which story of yours do you like best? why?

I love all my brain babies, gdi. But right now, I’m quite fond of you only live a day (but it’s brilliant anyway). I tried something different with the flash-forwards, and I think it worked out pretty well.

Do you ever write long handed or do you prefer to type everything?

I think faster than I write, so typing is most preferable. Although I do write in longhand if I don’t have a computer available.

Favorite first line/opening you’ve written?

what's the best gift you've ever received?

In terms of right thing right time? Probably this adorable little fanart of Shepard and Garrus my friend April commissioned for me. 

Runner-up is tickets to Elliott Smith for my 18th birthday in 2000 from my now-husband. It was the only time I saw him live. I’m glad I got to see him once before he died.

What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom? What fandom was it?

Depending on how you count it, Star Wars (between 10-12) or MCU (4).

A person who got you into a fandom and what fandom they pulled you in to.

I have a lot of friends who play Overwatch (gethporno, scowlowl, and criacow, among others) and it still feels really weird and nebulous as a fandom because I don’t play at all? But there’s also so little canon it doesn’t feel like it matters.

3 OTPs from 3 different fandoms.

What's a ship that you want to ship publicly, but everyone on tumblr hates it so you keep your mouth shut about it?
