Why would grown men throw rocks at trains? Why wouldn’t we throw rocks at trains? It’s what you do on Christmas morning. We’ve been doing it since we were kids.

13, 34, 46!
13. What type of AUs are your favorites? Give a general description.
Basically all of them? Lol. I like things that have parallels to canon in some way, but those can happen anywhere. I like quite simple AUs, like college or coffee shop (or road trip >.>), but I also like more niche things like concubines or assassins/spies or professional gamblers <.< There’s a few exceptions that I don’t care for, but by and large I just love throwing my OTPs together in any old AU setting!
34. Name a common type of fic that you cannot stand.
I’ve no time for that A/B/O business, that holds no appeal to me. And I wouldn’t say I can’t stand them, but something that I’d never even heard of until the past year or two is fake relationship stories? I’ve never even seen one for a pairing that I read (funny that, lol) but idk why everyone suddenly reckons they love them? Like… idgi?! Pretending NOT to be dating is a lot more interesting to me!
46. If you could imagine the perfect fic, what would it be like?
Oh man. It’d probably be super-boring in terms of content but I couldn’t improve upon a length fic of my OTP from meeting, getting to know each other, shyly asking each other out, getting together, first times, meeting the families, moving in together, getting married, getting pets, all that domestic junk. Can’t get enough of it, as long as it’s well-characterised!
Ahh feck. I’ve written 4500 words and idk how to get the characters to bone from here. Need to go back and add in more pre-boning words.
this probably won’t get any notes since i’m such a tiny account but if you want to take this quiz you can find it here ! after pulling an all-nighter crying over tsoa, i created this because i don’t think i’ve seen this type of personality test floating around before! hopefully it’s not too inaccurate since i’m not an expert on the subject. this was inspired by the pottermore sorting quizzes here and the greek godly parent quiz here
feel free to tag what you got if you finish it! mine is the realist
if you don’t want to take the quiz but you still want to know, the possible outcomes were:
the chosen one: authentic, brave, bold, intuitive, natural, passionate, stubborn
the realist: practical, understanding, honest, brutal, logical, creator, intelligent, sensible, down-to-earth, reasonable
the doppelgänger: manipulative, self deprecating, intelligent, knowledgable, ambiguous, caring
the master: determined, obsessive, powerful, charismatic, confident, rash, challenging
the defender: loyal, selfless, guardian, youthful, honest, unguarded, courageous, basically a gryffindor
the warrior: purposeful, adaptable, loyal, agressive, mindful, decisive, skillful, isolated, destroyer
For the fic ask thing: 4, 10 (I had to, you know that), 15, and 27 please? :)
4. Do you ever re-read fics? How about triple-read?
Oh, absolutely! I can’t imagine not doing, especially in a fandom where my pairing doesn’t have the greatest proliferation of fics these days. Got to dig back through the annals sometimes! ;3
10. What’s the most hard-core smut or kinky fic you’ve ever read (be honest)!
Well, there were those extremely long, extremely explicit retro F1 fics with the dom/sub/BDSM themes which aren’t usually of interest to me, but the fics were just *so* well written. And back in previous fandoms, years ago, people used to write any old bizarro shit just for the sake of it, lol. But I think maybe the most extreme is the watersports fic Again, one of those that was so well-written you couldn’t just hit back…. :
15. What makes you pick up a fic, what makes it sound interesting?
If it’s for my OTP, I’ll give anything a try, even though I occasionally regret it lol. But usually I don’t, cos most Rolipe authors are great! ;3 Ngl even if something sounds like a great concept and well-written, if it’s not a pairing I care about, I won’t read it. And if it is a pairing I care about, as long as it’s well-written and the characterisation is decent, it could be any ridiculous cliche and I’ll still enjoy, haha.
27. Name a type of fic that you wish there was more of.
Hmm that’s tough – I mean, ofc I just wish there was more fic for my pairings in general these days! I suppose I’d like to see more fic where the characters are/get together, but the rest of the story doesn’t revolve around their relationship. I mean, ofc I love stories that are just about the relationship as well, but I always want to see more external drama, and them dealing with it together, than drama within the relationship that causes them to have problems. That goes for all media tbh!
Thanks! 🙂
