#updated faq

In light of recent changes to the blog we've updated our FAQ page!

Here's a a summary of what's changed:

As a group blog we can no longer receive or send DMs. <- this is the important one.

This means to request a discord invitation you'll need to DM one of the moderators @charmsandtealeaves, @annabtg, or @eastwindmlk (alternatively if you already have a friend in the discord they can also send you an invite).

We do still have asks but only Ray (charms) has access to that inbox (weird Tumblr rules about the administration of group blogs). While she's not actively around Tumblr at the moment she does get emailed when an ask comes in, so she will answer reasonably promptly.

Anything else I should know about Drunk Writing Circle?

What is DA Drunk Writing Circle?

Drunk Writing Circle is a Friday night event in which writers from all corners of the fandom and the world get together on Tumblr, prompt one another, and write Dragon Age fanfiction in a low stakes, inclusive, and all-around fun environment. Invented many moons ago on a drunken lark by one lovely @5ftgarden, it has become a veritable weekly event, a relaxed and enjoyable way to share your work online and participate in the fandom community, as much or as little as you choose.

Let go of your inner critic, let loose, and write your heart out every Friday night!

A couple of things to add...

What pairings are welcome? All pairings are welcome! This includes but is not limited to Kisame x Reader, Kisame x OC, no pairing, and platonic pairings! As long as all characters are of age, there are no restrictions.

Are the prompts going to be ship based? Nope! The prompts are completely up to interpretation. If you want to write for a ship, go for it! If you want to keep it general, go for it! Go buck wild :)

How dark can the content get? As long as everything is tagged correctly and the rating is appropriate, as dark as you want. We don't want to put very much limitation as to how much freedom creators can have. Whatever you feel comfortable making is fine for us :)

Are we accepting late entries? Yes we are up until the 31st of August! We will be checking the tag frequently during the designated week, but if you submitted late, and don't see it reblogged, shoot us a message or an ask! and we'll go ahead and accept it. As for works on AO3, we've left the collection unmoderated for now so things can be submitted to the collection after the event up until 31/08.

I hope that clears somethings up for everyone! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask in our ask box!

frequently asked questions/information.

⠀ (info): hiya! my name is june and i like making free psds whenever the inspiration comes to me. as of spring 2020, i am eighteen years old (and therefore, no longer a minor) and my timezone is gmt! i consider myself as your friendly neighbourhood bisexual and kpop stan, so feel free to hit me up! i'd love to make friends with some of you guys.

⠀ (my content): ⠀ simply, i make free psds. to enlighten those who do not know what a psd is, it's basically a 'photoshop document' and while these documents come in many forms, my content alters/enhances the colours of a photograph or gif (if you're still confused, you could almost call it a downloadable filter.) as stated in the name, you need access to photoshop to be able to use my work and see it's full potential, however, there is an online alternative to photoshop called photopea. though, i'm aware that sometimes photopea alters the appearance of a psd, so to avoid that, i'd recommend purchasing photoshop or finding a free downloadable link (we've all been there babes.) at the moment, i only make psds, however in the future i wish to branch out into other areas and resources.

⠀ (credit): ⠀ all credit goes to me, and there is no exception to this. i am the only person who runs this sideblog, so therefore everything you see published is made solely by me. i cannot stress this enough, while my psds are free, this does not (and i mean this) give you any sort of permission to steal my psds or even parts of them, and if i come across or are made aware of someone stealing my work, i will confront them privately. i am politely asking those who follow me to do not do this for me, for this is my own matter. if an agreement can't be made, then that is the only time will i make this matter public. please, do not be childish and have common sense so that such a thing does not happen.

⠀ (activity): ⠀ creativity, or at least in my case, cannot be rushed. psds are supposed to be something i make for fun, not stress, so therefore i have no upload schedule and will only post new content when i'm satisfied with something i make. i've had problems with psds in the past, so i've figured that this works best for me and i will not budge on this for anyone, i do hope you understand that. i must admit, as a creator, there are people in the psd and roleplay community who are much more talented than i am, and admittedly create better work than i do, however, if you decide to support me and my work, then from the bottom of my heart: i am very grateful.

⠀ (commissions): ⠀ i do not do them, that is as simple as i can possibly put it. however, this being said, i now do have a ko-fi account that if you wish to, can donate to. but, you do not have to by any means because i understand that not everyone can afford to.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hello everyone!

I thought it might be helpful for you all to see my answers to some frequently asked questions that I receive.

PLEASE CHECK MY BLOG DESCRIPTION TO SEE WHEN I AM ACCEPTING REQUESTS!

1.The Basics

Hello! I’m Babbushka, I’m a fanfic writer for the ADEU (Adam Driver Extended Universe). You can find my fics in my Masterlist, or on my AO3. I have a personal AU/self ship with Flip Zimmerman, which you can hear about or avoid, using the tag ‘personal au’. I am very anti-reylo.  

2. What do you write?

I write reader insert fanfiction for the Adam Driver Character Extended Universe. The characters I write for are:

Kylo Ren in a variety of AUs

Supreme Leader Kylo Ren (Any ‘canon’ Kylo Ren content is from a Canon Divergent!AU that I have, where Kylo has crushed the Resistance and reigns as Supreme Leader with his Empress (You))

Mob!Au

Medieval!AU

Edwardian AU aka BB!Kylo 

Biker Gang!AU

Ancient Emperor!AU 

Bond Villain!AU

Criminal Prosecutor!AU 

Flip Zimmerman 

Pale (from Burn This on Broadway), 

Clyde Logan 

Charlie Barber 

Paterson &, and/or Paul Sevier 

Sevier Twins AU

Various Saturday Night Live characters (like Cameron Bissel lol)

If a character isn’t listed, like Adam Sackler, Matt the Radar Tech, Jude, etc., that means I don’t write for them. Please do not ask me to write a character that is not listed here. 

3. What will you not write?

I will not write reylo, nor do i want any of my writing to be associated with reylo. Please don’t tag my fics as reylo if you reblog them, and please please please don’t insert Rey into the reader, it just makes me so incredibly uncomfortable and the ship fully disgusts me. I also will not write “””bendemption”””, any fics about “””Ben Solo”””, or any fics set in the D/LF canon of TROS. 

I will not write heavy angst (such as breakups or divorce between reader and the character, infidelity/cheating where the character is cheating on reader or vice versa, torture or violence against the reader, MCD/reader death, hurt-no-comfort, dub-con, non-con). I also won’t write ddlg/daddy kink, breeding kink, monster aus, or a/b/o.

4. WHEN IS [INSERT FIC HERE] UPDATING???

Whenever it’s ready to be updated. Please stop asking me this question you guys lol I do this in my free time for fun, I have a lot of factors that affect the timeliness of fic/chapter updates. I am so grateful that people like my writing but I am just one girl who is doing her best. I really appreciate everyone’s patience!

5. Can we send in prompt requests/submissions for Sinday?

YES – please check my description for when I am accepting prompts. Please don’t ask me if I’m accepting prompts if the description says I’m not. I keep it updated, I promise.

While I am always accepting prompt requests or submissions, I reserve the right to deny or delete any prompts I don’t want to write. I will usually always respond to the ask saying that I won’t write it, so you don’t have to wait around for something that never comes, because I do believe in being courteous.

Any prompts that request themes, tropes, kinks, or characters/ships that I have listed above will be deleted and you will be blocked. Please give me the respect of reading through my guidelines, if you wish for me to make content for you.

6. I’m confused about some of the terms you use and events you have on the blog. What’s sinday? Is it different than After Hours or Sleepover? What’s the difference between requests, headcanons, and thots?

Sinday = On the first Sunday of every month I open up prompt submissions. I always make an announcement post when sinday has arrived, and now with the new pin feature i’ll be keeping those announcement posts pinned to the top of the blog when it’s the appropriate day.  If you’re ever unsure, the description at the top of my blod says either “prompts are open!” or “prompts are closed”. When in doubt, just check there and you’ll know if I’m accepting submissions! 

Zannah After Hours = This is usually a part of Sinday, where later in the evening I post the nsfw/smutty content. This means prompts that people have sent in, oneshots that i’ve written of my own accord, and any art i’ve made that I want to share. But Zannah After Hours can happen any day of the week lol, especially during sleepovers. 

Sleepover = A chance for us all to hang out! I reblog a bunch of ask lists and ask games, people send in questions, or they send in asking for advice, or telling us about their day, or anything else they’d like to share. We talk about all sorts of things, it’s a great way for us as a community to just hang out and spend an evening together. I often will like put on a face mask and get snacks or something, or have a movie on in the background to help make it feel like we’re all sleeping over at my house and giggling together! 

Prompt Submissions (also called Imagines) = These are scenarios that you guys send in to me, that you want me to write. It’s usually only a sentence, an idea you guys have, and then I get inspired by that and write out anywhere from like 500-1k words based around the idea. These can be sweet, silly, angsty, or smutty! For example: “what would happen if Flip heard someone catcalling you?”

Headcanon requests = These are topics you guys send in that you’d like for me to go into some detail on in a casual way. It’s not fully fleshed out prose writing, but is instead a series of bullet points listing how I think the characters would respond to a scenario, or how they feel about a topic. For example: In what ways does Pale show he loves you?

Thots/General Shenanigans = These are just opinions that you guys have that you want to share with the world! It’s not expecting writing from me, it’s just you guys shouting out into the void and us all shouting back! For example: Clyde Logan is so thicc and I want to climb him like a tree.

7. Do you have a taglist for when you upload new writing?

Yes! Please see the link in my description, which will take you to a google form. You can select which characters you’d like to be notified for, as well as what type of writing (chapter fics/oneshots/prompt fills). 

8. Can you help me develop ideas for my fic?

While I am very flattered that you would consider me, I’m going to have to respectfully decline. I spend so much time developing ideas for my own professional writing and my hobby fanfic, that my brain tends to be fried and I’m of no help to anyone lol

9. Will you be my beta author?

Again, while I am very flattered, I will have to decline. Editing takes up most of my own free time, and I’m afraid I’m fried by the time I would be able to edit your stories.

10. Do you do RP threads?

Generally speaking, no.

11. Can I send you writing that I’ve done through the inbox/submissions box?

No. While I am flattered that you’d like to share writing with me, I really prefer to be tagged in a post you’ve made yourself, rather than posting your writing for you. You can tag my directly via the @ function, or you can use any of the following in the # section of the post:

for babbushka

userbabbushka

babstracks

I track these tags so if you include any of them, it’ll show up on my feed :)

Please understand that just because you tag me in something, doesn’t mean I’ll automatically share it. I only reblog writing I really enjoy, because I’m not really willing to compromise my personal standards lol. That’s not to say that if I don’t share your writing that it’s bad!! It’s just not for me, and that’s okay :)  

12. Do you have a masterlist?

Yes! I have compiled an ultimate masterlist that has links to my individual character masterlist posts. You can find those here, or via the link in my description if you’re on mobile, or via the link on my blog if you’re on desktop! 

13. I’m not sure if you’ve written this before but -- 

Read this first for MBTI stuff (crash course)

Read this for enneagram stuff (crash course), The Enneagram Institute

Guidelines:

Read the rest of this FAQ including relevant links first. If you ask something answered in the FAQ your ask will most likely be deleted.

To steal a rule from mbti-notes, searchable, repetitive, or irrelevant anon asks may be deleted. Searchable means it’s in the FAQ or that there’s a clear keyword or tag you could use to search. Repetitive means I get asked it very frequently or it’s in the FAQ (and probably overlaps with searchable). Irrelevant means it’s not related to personality theory (if it’s something I want to answer I’ll still answer though). I also delete ask meme things that come in after the stated deadline (eg: D&D class typing).

Asks off anon that fail to meet the above guidelines will get a courtesy ‘please read the FAQ’ private answer.

Occasionally I will instead be snarky about these things instead of deleting. The price you pay for free advice and research is that I get to have fun with it.

Please try to keep things to a reasonable length. There is no hard limit at this time but if you find yourself feeling as though you need to apologize for the ask length, please instead spend a few minutes editing down your question before you ask it. A good rule of thumb is that if it’s more than 5 or 6 asks long, you’re either rambling or you’re telling a story instead of asking a question.

Ask the question you want the answer to. Don’t ask “is it possible that I’m mistyped” if you mean to ask “what’s my type” and please attempt to use some common sense. You’ve presumably interacted with people before; that should give you some reference for what is normal human behavior.

If you definitely want a response, the ask box is always best. I might miss a reblog or reply, or assume it doesn’t require a response.

For typing help: I expect you to have read this FAQ and I expect you to be able to describe yourself or the person you are trying to type using multiple detailed examples of their specific and unique behavior.

I don’t do instinctual variant typing, and here’s why.

FAQ

Will mental illness or cognitive disorders possibly affect my typing? Yes. I cannot personally tell you what’s your personality and what’s due to mental illness/conditions that affect cognition so if you aren’t sure that is something for you to figure out. And as always, I am not a mental health professional. Please seek treatment or therapy and don’t try to solve legitimate illnesses with MBTI. For more on this: PSA.

What are the differences between Fi and Fe/can Fi look like Fe? Look here

Is there a surefire way to tell if someone is a specific type or uses a specific function? Not really. Most behaviors can be learned with enough effort, and the functions manifest more as patterns of behaviors, not a single signature behavior.

How do I tell if X MBTI type I have a crush on likes me/what do you think about this relationship/how do I help X type?

MBTI can’t answer these questions. Communicate with your crush or partner or the person you want to help instead of asking a person on the internet who doesn’t know any of you.

Which MBTI test is best? All tests suck. Study the functions.

Is this MBTI type likely with this Enneagram? Check this post out for some data!

How do I tell Ni vs. Si? Look here. Also here

How do I tell Ne vs. Se?

Look here

How do I figure out my tritype?

Type each fix separately rather than trying to holistically type based on a full tritype description. Ultimately similar cores will look quite similar even if the tritypes are different (ie, a 135 and a 126 will probably look more similar than a 135 and a 351).

I’m awesome and will actually search your blog before asking - what’s your tagging system?

It’s not perfect, but:

by function (eg: #introverted sensing; note that I spell extroverted with an ‘o’ even though it’s wrong)

mbti in general (#mbti)

enneagram (#enneagram)

I don’t tag by type unless it’s more holistically about that type, but by type (eg: #istj)

Previous asks, going back to around May 2017 (#answered asks)

Finally, the search function - even on mobile - is pretty good if you have a clear key word.

What is this? 

The Reverse Big Bang is similar to the original Big Bang fest — a collaborative piece between artists and writers. This time around, however, artists will be starting the process and writers will come in later to claim some art to write for. This fest will be run on tumblr and AO3. 

All announcements will be shared on tumblr and discord, which all participants will have access to once signups are open. Art and fics will be shared on AO3, so if you don’t have an account please let me know.

How do I sign up? 

Signups for artists run from August 30, 2019 to October 13, 2019. Signups for writers run from October 14, 2019 to November 10, 2019. There are separate signup forms for each and they will be posted on tumblr and on discord on their respective dates.

Requirements:

Artists are required to create a minimum of two pieces (per prompt) for the fest — and there is no maximum! However, artists are not allowed to create more than two prompt pieces. What do I mean by prompt pieces? Each ‘prompt’ is a story for a writer to claim. But for each ‘prompt’, you are allowed to create as many pieces as you like/are able to complete.

Artists will need to have their work beta’d. You are encouraged to share you work within the private discord channel, or ask for one on one assistance/opinions.

*If you are creating two prompt pieces, they both have to be 80% finished for writer claims

When can I start drawing? You can start drawing as soon as you sign up and receive a confirmation email/discord invite! All art must be new, and not part of an AU/series you already have work posted for.

Traditional, digital and manips are welcome! If you are interested in creating content not listed, please contact a mod!

What are the fic requirements?

Writers are asked to write 8k minimum (no maximum). All fics must be beta’d. If you do not have a regular beta and need help finding one, please let me know!

Can artists tell writers what to write?

No. This is a collaboration fest. Writers are working with the artists, however they still have to respect the preferred content rating and warnings provided by the artist. The goal is to work together and create something awesome, based on the initial prompt given by the artist! More information on this will be shared closer to claiming.

Content rating system

Please check the AO3 rating system to rate your work. You’re free to publicly post your work anywhere you like (once the fest is over), but the AO3 rating system must be used when posting to the challenge. The ratings are: General (G), Teen and Up (T), Mature (M), Explicit (E).

Check ins

All check ins are listed on the schedule post, and approaching each date requirements will be shared regarding what needs to be done by that point. 

Can I pre-match with my collaborator?

No, collaborators will be able to claim your work anonymously. Pre-matching will not be permitted for this round.

This schedule interferes with sign-ups for other challenges.

An apt observation! The schedule was made after taking into consideration other fests, holidays, and my own schedule; I want to be available to help as much as possible, and it’s spread out to allow everyone time to give their work(s) for the fest the focus and effort it deserves!

You are allowed to sign up as both an artist and a writer!

Claiming Artists will be required to submit their main piece(s) for claiming by November 17, 2019. Art must be 80% finished for claims. Along with the artwork, artists will submit preferred content rating, some squicks that they would prefer their collaborator avoid, and a brief description of their idea/AU/prompt. A full description/template for claims will be shared closer to the actual claiming date.

What if there aren’t enough writers for artists?  

In the event that there are more art prompts than there are writers, there will be several rounds of claiming so that everyone has the opportunity to claim more if they wish to do so.
