I like it!!! And totally with you on the turtleneck. Not that he doesn’t look good, I just personally don’t like them.

Thank you, @weirdostarkid!!

The Riley Poole fic is, so far, Riley getting mugged outside a burger shop, and the mugger recognizing him as that treasure hunter guy. Riley naturally assumes he means Ben, but the mugger wants him. He'll end up trying to get Riley to hack or break into something, while Riley is leaving clues for Ben. Hopefully they can come rescue him before it all goes to pot.

(Has this idea been done by me already with other characters (ahem, Tony and Steve)? Absolutely. Am I going to try it again with Ben and Riley? You betcha!)

(Or something like that. I only have the first chapter written).

Sorry for the late response, @weirdostarkid! Thanks for the ask!

7. What is your favourite sentence/paragraph?

Technically I answered this here but I have more.

From Resolution

“Enough that he’s worried you’re going to do something in retaliation for Silver’s visit today.” Bobby leaned forward so he was directly in Johnny’s eyeline. “You’re not, are you? Because that would be a level of monumental stupidity that even you have yet to cross.”

From Conflict (the line itself isn’t that great, but it caused @you-cant-just-import-answer to segfault, so it deserves a spot here)

[Kreese] did however grab one glass of water and slide it across the table to Johnny, who dumped it onto the flower beds lining the railing without a second thought.

8. If you got a computer virus that deleted all your fics but had just enough time to save one before they were wiped out, which fic would you pick and why?

Jokes on you: I compulsively back everything up to Google Drive and an external hard drive. :) But if I were going to save one, probably the filler scenes from Conflict/Resolution set between the police station and the trial. My other WIPs are not nearly that long or in depth, so they would be less difficult to rewrite. Everything else has been posted to one site or another.

9. The “you got kudos“ e-mail is usually much appreciated, but is there a fic you wish you didn’t get these e-mails for? if so, which one and why?

Not from ao3, but every so often, I get a ‘favorites/follow’ FFN email for my first fic, which was fun to write, but definitely not my best. There are at least four other fics I’d rather you as a reader spent your time on instead, that much better reflect who I am (or was) as a writer/NCIS fangirl.

12. What headcanon will you keep implementing in your fics, even if canon ends up contradicting it?

I think we’ll see it in Season Four, but that Sam would be a better Cobra Kai than Miyagi-Do. That Anthony actually exists. That Johnny stays in way better touch with the ex-Cobras after their reunion and Tommy’s death. Also, Jarmen (if written well) is a good endgame for Johnny, especially once he puts in the time to repair his relationship with Robby first.

Oh and to switch fandoms:

Winn Schott deserved better!

14. What trope would you refuse to write even if you were paid to do it?

‘Rape/Non-Con’ really isn’t my thing. ‘Explicit sexual content’ either.

I would write ‘Major Character Death’ if I was paid to do it, but if it were one of my favorites, it’d hurt me a lot more than it’d hurt you.

Also how could I forget A Very Merry Mix Up, Once Upon a Holiday, and Snow Bride (which is similar to a Christmas Prince). And of course holiday in handcuffs

weirdostarkid replied to your post “Actually, while I’m watching Christmas movies and someone already...”

Merry Kissmas, My Christmas Love, Holiday Engagement and A Christmas Prince, You Can't Fight Christmas, The Nine Lives of Christmas.....I am not sure you can find all these on Netflix tho

I recommend the spirit of Christmas if you haven’t seen in.

You know what’s weird? I actually only like the short dress/long gown thing very rarely but it works for me. I think seeing the way it moved helped me.
