obπi made an oc lovers askmeme! feel free to share widely
nebulosOn survey, I love a good "struggling to understand" each other. The clash, but also resolution, of different values, ways of looking at the world, wants and needs. I think I'm not really interested in stories that characterize one character as "right" and the other as "wrong" and the "defeat" of one or the other.
obnormie elevator pitch: trans girl pretends to be a boy for convenience in an online game where the "girl" she's falling in love with is still pretending to be a boy in real life. also the mafia is involved. and they live on saturn
sicko elevator pitch: king of the night trans girl dom at the most elite bdsm club in the city falls in love with sweet milky meowmeow "boy" who plays at being a cute girl in an online game. also the yakuza are there. sexily. on saturn.
#WriterMagic give me two (2) elevator pitches. one for normies and one for sickos!
fizzsea8. what is your favorite part of the creative process?
Designing characters and thinking of their dynamics. I really like thinking about fashion, but my favorite thing to do while designing a character is filling up a sketch page of how they express themself... It's a nice way to get myself to think abt other facets to them or get started on brainstorming how they interact with the world around them
9. what is your least favorite part of the creative process?
Play testing my own projects, it's a really mind numbing experience LOL but a necessary one, so i still do my best. Sometimes music making feels like the worst too, but only bc i still haven't really built up the confidence for it. I think

I don't like any action scenes, be it hand-to-hand combat, a battle, or even a sex scene (no surprise, they got their own stunt coordinator in #filmmaking, called #IntimacyCoordinator). I have no idea to make this bustle interesting while also making it relevant to the plot.
Because of that, writing #ForYou was such an interesting challenge.
#WriterMagic 6 What is your creative process like?
I usually think about a story until it becomes concrete in my head and I have a good idea about the plot, the theme, the main characters and the ending as a destination. Then, I usually just start writing chronologically with each chapter going through the same process as the story as a whole in terms of fleshing out the plot for each chapter in depth.
#WriterMagic 13 What are your personal writing ambitions (becoming famous not included, more like self-growth ambition, things you want to get better at)
I'm not one of those, who are satisfied with primarily/only writing for themselves, though I envy them a little. I just need to get my stuff out. When I don't think, I can, I won't write a particular story. That doesn't mean that a huge amount of readers have to read it.

#WriterMagic 10 what kind of character conflicts define your work?
I love internal conflicts! You don't get any more raw than this. And you can't run from them. There can also be interpersonal conflicts, but they are usually related to an internal conflict.
What can make interpersonal conflicts also interesting are society problems, usually systematic ones.
#WriterMagic 7 How do you name your characters?
I try to avoid naming characters after people I know. Of course, the more people you know, this is getting a little complicated. I also try not to rename characters once their names have been written down. In the rare occasions, I did this ended up with one previous name being left in one chapter and people asking "Who is Max?" I usually just go with my gut when it comes to names. I can't explain, why Chase is a Chase.
