How about 1, 5, 7, 9 for the asks!
1. What was the first fic you ever wrote?
Okay, so we gotta go back a long way to answer this question. Six years to be exact. Gosh, it was six years ago. And so many fandoms ago, too.
Either way, to answer your question: the first fandom story i ever wrote was called Once Mine and was a crossover story between Disney's Tangled and DreamWorks' How to Train Your Dragon, and written for hiccunzel as a pairing. It was heavily canon based, set after Tangled and HTTYD 2 (I mean, there was a time i thought i might actually finish it by the time httyd 3 is out, silly me). It had lots of angst, lots of pain, lots of unresolved issues... that stayed unresolved because i simply couldn't bring myself to finish the damn story.
Sometimes, i wish i could go back.
@astridthevalkyrie sure hopes i do (she'll tell you it's a snunzel fic though).
5. Do you have a writing playlist?/what's on it?
I do! I had this one huge one for Once Mine (see above), that was pretty much songs that inspired each chapter. Lots of Sleeping at Last, some Stallion soundtrack. Pop songs in general though.
Now these days i hardly ever listen to anything other than instrumentals because of how distracted i get otherwise, and it's mostly the soundtrack from the fic i'm writing. I have two playlists for chihayafuru (manazashi on the loop constantly). Other than that it's more about, "Well, today's some angsty Kono Oto Tomare/FMA/etc, let's find some sad OST on youtube."
7. Do people in your real life know you write fanfic?
Some do? I don't exactly brag about it, I usually answer the questions with an, "I write... stuff." But yeah, i told some people. My siblings do, but there's no hiding things from them. Oh, and i remember some of my friends getting really hyped about me writing for Anne of Green Gables back in the day.
9. If you had to pick one: Angst, Fluff/Soft, Smut, or Darkfic?
Angst with a happy ending is an epitome of storytelling and fanfic in particular and you can't convince me otherwise. That being said, it's fun to be able to write fluff every once in a while.
Though it's still more fun if you have a heavier/sadder background to paint it methinks.
Thanks for asking!
