Thank you for the ask @clairelsonao3!

12. Do you enjoy receiving feedback?

I answered this one here. 💕But long story short: YES. Reblogs, comments, etc make my day and inspire me to keep writing!

19.   What is something your readers don’t know that you do?

A lot of things! Mostly, I think the most relevant ones are the plot twists that will happen in my WIPs, the full arc of some characters, and maybe a secret that a character is hiding from another! My readers will find this out as the stories develop!

For the pride asks!

16. Did you ever change an oc's identity when they were already established? Why?

18. Do you prefer to give your ocs specific labels, or keep it unspecified? Why? If applicable, do you change their labels depending on circumstance?

Thank you for the ask, @eccaiia!

16. Did you ever change an OC's identity when they were already established? Why?

Not recently that I recall! Usually my character's sexuality or identity simply "clicks" as I'm developing them - I get a "vibe" from their personality traits or sometimes I just know it's difficult to explain. What does happen quite often is that I'll have developed a character and won't be sure of what their identity or sexuality is because it hadn't yet been relevant to the plot, but then I'll be writing the book and be like "heck yeah, this character is gay" or "this character is as asexual as me", or "this girl would have a gorgeous girlfriend", etc. It's typically that "click" moment I mentioned before.

18. Do you prefer to give your ocs specific labels, or keep it unspecified? Why? If applicable, do you change their labels depending on circumstance?

Usually my OCs don't have labels within canon - mostly because most of my WIPs take place in medieval settings where our modern labels would be out of place. All of them have a clear label or sexuality in my mind as I write them once they've been fully developed. But some do have labels (namely some characters from Supernova Initiative and Mutant Inquiries, which are both futuristic settings, so our modern labels fit right in). For example, there's a line in Supernova Initiative where Jack says "I'm Asexual"! (:

Character Voice Tag!

Thanks for the tag, @willtheweaver (here)!

By the way, if you like this, please reblog, it helps a lot 💕

I'll go with the cast of Supernova Initiative! Let's go (:

MY LINE WAS: What did I do to deserve this?

YOUR LINE IS: Well. That was horrifying. Anyways, moving on!

I'm gonna put a bit of context in brackets because I think it helps (:

SUPERNOVA INITIATIVE

Jack Tithus (probably in tears, talking to the Director) - "What did I ever do to you, you sick bastard?!"

Artemis Zreeth (deadpan, after Meridian makes a cringey joke) - "What is your problem with me, robot-man?"

Cassiopeia Tithus (pissed off, almost decking Deimos)- "Well we didn't ask you to come back! What the hell is wrong with you?"

Deimos Soll (trying to sound unemotional, actually terrified of General Laylah) - "You have refused to inform me of the purpose of my capture. Until you explain to me what your qualm with my person is, I shall refuse to comply with any orders coming from you."

Vesper Foxx (knife to the person's throat, pinning them to the wall by the scruff of their shirt): "What do you want, fucker? You seem to have a problem with me, so why don't we solve this one-on-one?"

Pax Stellaryn (mildly annoyed but chuckling after his brother pranked him): "Gosh, what did I do to deserve that this time? What is your excuse (chuckles)?"

Aleks Keldora (genuinely concerned): "Did I do something wrong? I must have. Can you please tell me so I can make it better?"

Ethean Mirannir (done with everything): "Why are you like this? Just why. What did I ever do to you?"

Noctus (seemingly unemotional and slightly cheeky): "If you have any problems with my work, do take it up with my supervisors at the Junction. I'm sure they would be pleased to redirect you."

- for the Ask The Writer game!

Thank you for the Ask, @diabolical-blue! Ask Game (here)

10.   What frustrates you the most as a writer?

I answered this one here! 💕

12.   Do you enjoy receiving feedback?

OMG YES, YES YES, A MILLION TIMES YES!!!!!!!! Feedback, reblogs and comments on my WIP are what keep me going in my writing journey aside from willpower lmao. Every single reblog or kind comment from my friends makes my day!

21.   What’s your favorite writing advice to share?

I would say that my best advice would be for the writer to simply have fun with what they're creating. To write the story that makes them happy - a story that makes them so inspired they can't help but think about it almost 24/7 (in a good, non-obsessive way of course). I would also tell them to simply start the first draft and let themselves make mistakes and be imperfect - those can be fixed later, a first draft should be to make the story exist outside of your head. Coherence and flowery pose should be saved for later drafts (:

Ask meee....

OC Duo Answers Ask Game

So because I'm incapable of doing things the conventional way, here's an idea: for these asks, instead of picking an OC and just saying things (which I like, don't get me wrong), to answer these asks pick two characters, and answer the questions as if each character were talking about the other. These answers don't have to be accurate; they reflect each character's perceptions of the other. They can be friends, family, enemies, anything to each other.

😇- What's their best trait?

👿- What's their worst trait?

⚖️- Are they a good person?

👁️- Do you really know them?

👥- What are they to you?

❤️- What are you to them?

🐺- What animal do they most remind you of?

😘- Are they your type?

😨- What's their greatest fear?

🧠- What's your best memory with them? Worst?

👣- How long have you known each other?

🫂- How has your relationship changed recently?

🫡- Are they a good leader?

If you guys have asks you want to add in the reblogs, go ahead, ik this isn't a lot.

Gonna tag people below the cut to get this started:
