I like things and sometimes I post about them here.

Fics I’ve written:

Marble Hornets (all MH things are listed on this page)

LOST The Way Home - A canon-divergent AU series following Daniel after he’s rescued at the end of season 4 along with the Oceanic Six. Part 1 is completed, Part 2 is still in progress.

Obsidian and Sand - AU where Miles, Charlotte, and Daniel all grew up on the island. Daniel/Miles

Money Where Your Mouth Is (explicit) - a one-shot that feels a bit like a weird fever dream, in which Sawyer discovers bisexuality. Daniel/Sawyer

(more coming sooooon)

hello Lea

have you ever watched supernatural (I recently started watching it)

if so what do you think of it??

-silly anon

I have not - although according to an old journal I found forever ago from like 2005, I apparently did watch the entire first season as it aired?? But I have absolutely no memory of it whatsoever lol

Going from being an introverted lurker on reddit to trying to post my own stuff here is so wild. I keep typing out a post, deleting it, then retyping because I think it's not good enough but then I look at other posts and why am I so worried?

It's like I'm at a fancy Italian restaurant and keep glancing around the room to see which hand people use to pick up the forks. But then I realize that everyone is shoveling spaghetti into their mouths using their bare hands and I'm like ah okay so I'm clearly overthinking this

This restaurant is absolute chaos and I'm giving it 5 stars

🤔 What is the hardest part of writing fic?

fucking WRITING. I don't know why it's so hard to just. sit down and make words come out when I KNOW exactly what needs to happen but well!!!

🍰 Name one of your fave comfort fics (doesn’t have to be your all time fave).

✨ Choose three adjectives to complement your own writing.

I like to think that vivid is maybe a good way to describe my writing? Pretentious isn't really a compliment so maybe like. Poetic? I can get a little flow-y sometimes, and hopefully realistic is also a good one?

👩‍🏭 If one of your fics was going to get you arrested, which one and why?

🏅 What is something you recently felt proud of in regard to your writing (finished a fic, actually planned for once, etc).

tbh I'm quite proud of the reception that Money Where Your Mouth Is received, for a silly joke/crack fic I think it turned out pretty well and people really seemed to like it which makes me super happy!!

👖 Are you a planner, plantser, or pantser? Is it consistent?

It sorta depends on the fic, but I guess I tend to be a planner for the most part? Generally I tend to have an idea of where things are going, like a lot of my WIPs start out as things that I know the beginning and end of and then the middle is a lot of figuring out as we go if that makes sense?

💻 Do you do research for your fics? What’s the deepest dive you’ve done?

Oh my god please ask me about nuclear shit. please ask me about hydrogen bombs and radiation and nuclear disasters I have done so much research I have learned so much about how nuclear/thermonuclear bombs work just for like a single goddamn chapter of a fucking Lost fic I just

Fanfic Ask Game (the movie, the sequel)

In celebration of me actually working on a fic, I made y’all an ask game instead of continuing to work on that fic. Pls enjoy.

when gerard way sings "the broken, the beaten, and the damned" and when kermit the frog sings "the lovers, the dreamers, and me" they're talking about the same people btw
