This should've been a tumblr writing tag, so where human interactions are needed, I'll be using a randomizer LMAO. 

idk. I'm at work, it's raining, it's Friday. The long holiday's about to start. I'm lazy. Yeah. 

 

>> HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH THE TITLE TO JOUSKA?

(Randomiser just gotta pick the most pretentiously titled fic out of the bunch smh)
I legit just googled "Foreign words that can't be translated to English." and scoured through the results until I found the most fitting one to the story LOL.

 

>> ANY OF YOUR STORIES INSPIRED BY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE?

OH WELL KIDS YOU'RE IN FOR A LONG RIDE.
Let's go down my list of fics, shall we?
- the coffee and the tea wench = 40% inspired by my junior highschool experience
- Chocolate Lollies Kisses = inspired by a certain hot Australian summer barbie
- Missing Home = well... inspired by my homesickness from studying abroad LOL
- Liminal Space = the farewell i went through after graduation from senior high
- T is for turmeric scrub = inspired by a childhood memory
- Don't open your eyes = from my New Zealand holiday
- No qualms with your sweaty palms = that one time i thought i'll die in a plane crash because the turbulence was crazy
- banana split = me crushing after my wushu instructor
- foregone conclusion = my view point regarding death.

W o w look at that :))

 

>> WHAT MEMBER DO YOU IDENTIFY WITH MOST?

g o s h idk, i mean Yoongi is forever my pa but,
Idk about NCT hmmmMMMMM Taeyong is my fellow cancer crab but idk if we're alike LOL

 

>> IS THERE A SONG OR A PLAYLIST TO ASSOCIATE WITH POSITION EVALUATION?

HMMMM
Oneul bam juingongeun naya na

L O L 

 

>> IF YOU WROTE A SEQUEL TO THE ONLY THING TO MAKE ME BETTER, WHAT WOULD IT BE ABOUT?

d i c c  s u c c i n g

 

>> SHARE A SNIPPET FROM ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE DIALOGUE SCENES YOU’VE WRITTEN AND EXPLAIN WHY YOU’RE PROUD OF IT.

“Oh my god, it’s 420 blaze it time.”

“It’s the what time,-?”

- Foregone Conclusion

Yes, just that. 
Why, you ask?
1. Those two lines are truly the essence that shows the mood-whiplash-ness of the story (because not even two paragraphs before, the two characters are talking about how the other one is resigning himself to death h a h).
2. I added this section so late into the writing process of the story. I guess they kindda remind me that I should never be afraid to edit my stories. Keep it open to additions, shufflings, and deletion, if needed.

 

>> DO YOU WRITE YOUR STORY FROM START TO FINISH, OR DO YOU WRITE THE SCENES OUT OF ORDER?

I'm simple. I always write from point A to B.
Sometimes I do write important/tricky sections (esp if I have ephipahies about them and need to jot down the important bits before I forgot about them all) and just later play connect the dots, but usually if I do that I'll lose my will to write so quickly LOL. Those fun scenes are like the carrots dangling in front of my horse-self. I use them to motivate me to write. 

 

>> HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?

Realistic slice of life, often with way too much inappropriate moments of snarky comedy LOL.

 

>> DO YOU HAVE A GUILTY PLEASURE IN FIC (READING OR WRITING)?

1. Putting my beloved characters through unnecessary pain. 

2. w e i r d  c o m e d y.

3. ABO/vampire succing plot LOL IM SORRY OK BUT THEY'RE FUN TO READ.

 

>> WRITE OR DESCRIBE AN ALTERNATIVE ENDING TO DR. LECHEN & CAPTAIN JUSTICE.

Probably less of an alternative ending but more of a sequel but I think it'll be really fun if a bigger menace (anything bigger than Chenle's petty, silly vandalism acts, or his ring of mild mannered drug dealers) comes to terror the city and it forces Chenle and Jisung to work together to defeat it.

(omg you know what, that's actually really cute idea, why didn't i think of this before asdkjfnasdf)

 

>> WHAT’S THE ANGSTIEST IDEA YOU’VE EVER COME UP WITH?

W e l l angst has never been my forte but I mean, Foregone Conclusion is the closest I've ever gone to a hard angst, I think (aka the one where i kill Renjun with cancer and Jeno can do nothing but watch :)) )
I'm much more of a soft gal, definitely.

 

>> HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU USUALLY REVISE YOUR FIC/CHAPTER BEFORE POSTING?

In the past, usually i'll just do a once over and then BAM IT'S UP BINCHES.
But lately, I will really keep a close eye on them (not that it helps weeding out those pesky grammar mistakes), but I'll just chill with them for a week or so, reading through it lil by lil and when I c a n t hold myself back from posting it, /only then/ i will. 

 

>> GOT ANY PREMISES ON THE BACK BURNER THAT YOU’D CARE TO SHARE?

BINCH, TOO MUCH.

Here's two that I hope will be finished by the end of this month:

1. Luwin soft vampire succing = or when Lucas fell ill because he's not compatible with a vegetarian vampire diet and Winwin offers to get his blood succed so he can get better. Stupid bickering ensues.

2. King of Love and Beauty = well because someone needs to finally deal with the most frustratingly adorable love triangle aka YUWINIL. Yuta and Taeil are knights (altho taeil is more of a reluctant one that only donned the armor because his dad said so) participating in a Royal tourney, and they are fighting for Lord winwin's favour.

 

>> IS THERE A FIC YOU WISH SOMEONE ELSE WOULD WRITE (OR FINISH) FOR YOU?

I have this two stories /Inspired by Fairytale/ WIPs and I mean, I really want to /read/ it, but I don't want to /write it/.

1. Little Mermaid: A silly take of the mermaid lore for NoRen aka I still can't let go of the We Young era, with Silver Haired Prince Jeno Targaryen and Renjun is a malfunctioned Mermaid that looks human /in/ the water and ghoulish /outside/, so his fellow merpeople go like "the hell, we can't use him to lure sailors." Well, it's just gonna be filled with stupid, unecessary comedy and lots and lots and LOTS of underwater kisses. 

2. Beauty and the Beast: why the hell aren't there a fucc ton of BatBt!AU after taeil and winwin dressed as BEAUTY AND THE BEAST for halloween? THE HELL?? It's sort of a combination of BatB and Penelope and Princess and the Frog because Winwin was born with the tusk of a boar and his family has tried their best to break the curse but it never worked because he's one narcissistic piece of who can't love someone with all his heart, until he meets with Taeil, a shy, green musical artist with the heart of a chicken. The PatF part comes from when they kiss.... instead of the curse breaking, it got transferred to Taeil LAKWENFKAWEF.

 

>> HOW DO YOU BEGIN A STORY–WITH THE PLOT, OR THE CHARACTERS?

Plot. Definitely plot. 
In fact, trying to find characters that fit with the plot is one of the biggest joy for my story building process. 

 

>> ARE YOU WHAT GEORGE R. R. MARTIN WOULD CALL AN “ARCHITECT” OR A “GARDENER”? (HOW MUCH DO YOU PLAN IN ADVANCE, VERSUS LETTING THE STORY UNFOLD AS YOU GO?)

Well Georgie, I'm definitely a Gardener. 
I usually have the best time writing if I go in with only the broadest sense of plot-concept. Seeing the story growing and taking unexpected turns is the best part of writing, imho. 
In fact, the more I plan, the more likely I'll abandon the story, because it feels like I've sort of /completed/ it. If I've seen it come to an end in my brain, i won't really have the itch to write it, ya know. 

 

>> HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT COLLABORATIONS?

No. LMAO

 

>> ARE THERE ANY WRITERS (FANFIC OR OTHERWISE) YOU CONSIDER AN INFLUENCE?

I've only returned to reading a l o t this year, but here's my favourites that i've unearthed in this 6 months:

- KAZUO ISHIGURO LIKE CAN WRITE THE BEST, MOST INTRIGUING YET MOST HUMAN CHARACTERS AND I W AN T TO WRITE LIKE HIM TYVM. 

- Uhhh Andre Aciman aka the writer for my favourite book of the year, OF MY LIFE, Call me by your name, I'm a for that book, for that movie, for everything, I love it so much. 

 

>> ANY FANDOM TROPES YOU CAN’T RESIST?

Soft coming of age stories for the dreamies kids.
I will drown in the sad, dreadful kind of anxiety of nct dream's coming of age stories hhhhhhhhhh

 

>> ANY FANDOM TROPES YOU CAN’T STAND?

mp**g

>> IF YOU COULD WRITE THE SEQUEL (OR PREQUEL) TO ANY FIC OUT THERE NOT WRITTEN BY YOURSELF, WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE?

Like an Onion Inside Out by Spiralleds

If only... i'm a better scifi writer..... I will turn this into a novel length adventure :)))

 

>> DO YOU LIKE MORE GENERAL PROMPTS, OR MORE SPECIFIC ONES?

HMMMMMM In the middle tbh... 

 

>> A CHARACTER YOU ENJOY MAKING SUFFER.

hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhrenjunhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

>> A CHARACTER YOU WANT TO PROTECT.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRENJUNHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

>> MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH–DO YOU EVER WRITE/READ IT? IS THERE A CHARACTER WHOSE DEATH YOU CAN’T TOLERATE?
