I was tagged by @akashadarkblade appreciated friend!

RULES: post the names of the files in your WIP folder. let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet or tell them something about it!

Oh boy this'll be a call out to myself to finish these xD

That's about it! All of these are Black Butler related save Memories of Mortals and Madmen which is a Evil Within/Black Butler crossover that I've been reworking behind the scenes! I tag and anyone who wants to do this! Let's hear about everyone's WiPs!

I'm not ashamed to admit it, but watching the Book of the Atlantic credits roll, makes me highly emotional and cry real tears

FanFic Tag Game

Thanks very much for the tag friend! @akashadarkblade

1: How many fics do you have on AO3? 159

2: What’s your total AO3 word count? 896,626

3: What fandoms do you write for?

Mostly Black Butler but I've dabbled in The Evil Within with some sides of FFXV and Kingsman! Storm Hawks too if we're going way back!

4: What are your top five fics by kudos?

Without You (Kingsman)

A Passionate First (The Evil Within)

Better Than Dinner (The Evil Within)

Our Anniversary (Kingsman)

A Gentleman Like You (KIngsman)

5: Do you respond to comments?

Sometimes if it's a one shot but usually no because if I reply to one and forget to reply to another, I don't want someone to get the impression I'm ignoring them by not replying, so I usually just do a big thanks or something in the author note's of the next chapter lmao

6: What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Oh that's tough. Most of them are angsty but I'd have to say Mind Who You Reap.

7: What is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

That's even tougher. I think Haunted Heart because everyone gets the feel good ending.

8: Do you get hate on fics?

Sometimes but I just ignore them anyway, so mentally, no lol

9: Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Yes. All kinds. A lot I don't post but of the stuff I do tends to be either vanillia or some sort of domination fetish (mostly about William being dominated or dominiating because yes)

10: Do you write crossovers?

I have one! A TEW/Black Butler crossover! In my own time I started writing a Criminial Minds/Black Butler and even a TMNT/Black Butler way back in the day but those are both very cringe now and will never see the light of day.

11: Have you ever had a fic stolen?

I don't think so, no.

12: Have you ever had a fic translated?

A couple into Russian

13: Have you ever co-written a fic?

Nope. Well, sort of. There was a TEW thing going around for a bit but I don't think anything actually came of it?

14: What’s your all time favorite ship?

Ronilliam, hands down. I eat them up like no tomorrow.

15: What’s a fic you’d like to finish but don’t think you ever will?

The Red Record. I REALLY want to but I always have so many other projects on the go and it always ends up falling to the wayside despite having an outline ready and waiting to go.

16: What are your writing strengths?

Dialogue for sure.

17: What are your writing weaknesses?

Descriptions. Sometimes I'm good at them but other times they just falls so FLAT

18: Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in a fic?

If a chracter speaks it, sure, why not?

19: First fandom you wrote for?

Storm Hawks. Boy, that was the wild west for me.

20: Favorite fic you’ve written?

Oooo that's a hard one. Bewitched By the Eyes of a Reaper is up there but if I HAD to pick the ulitmate, it'd probably be Mind Who You Reap. It's not the best work I've ever done (part of me wants to rewrite it and update it a bit) but it's the one I can go back to and just enjoy reading without nitpicking myself too much lol

I'll tag @checkeredtablesloth as well as anyone else who wants to do it!

Shipping with William is so strange. I feel like you look at him and think he wouldn't work with anyone but then I've come to realise that he works well with a lot of characters? The popular Grelliam, the semi-popular Ronilliam, the SebWill's, the Eric/William or Alan/William, Undertaker/William and even down to the rareest pairs like Mey-Rin/William. He just, works?

I used to be one of those people who disliked OC/Canon but I've quickly changed my mind on that when I created an OC for him that was meant to be a horrible person but very swiftly devloped into an in depth reationship marred by lies and decit that formed into a deep love or willing to give her up so she may live a better life then what he could provide with everything taken from him (depnds on the story I want to write). Like genuinely, she's become 'canon' to me now and she's always part of his life whether his past is mentioned or not and I love them?

IDK, I'm rambling at this point, but I just wanted to say that shipping with William is a strange yet fulfilling expereince because I love the angst but I also love giving William the love and support and care that he deserves.

Listen, I have a lot of William thoughts. A LOT of William thoughts and some times, I just need to blurb and get them out there lmao

Yessss! Another like minded Alister Fletcher fan! I wish he was in more of the games but I guess we'll just have to make do with his apperances in the two games he's in!

(Also yes??? They're dynamic is already so great??)

It's that time of night where I'm scrolling through the William tag and sobbing because I love him so much that my heart clenches up and my chest aches and I love him more then I have ever loved a fictional character before and I would do anything just to have the smallest of William crumbs.

They're mine too! I'm excited to bring the Ronilliam content! 💖

I'm so glad to hear you're liking it so far! It's my first real step into a Grelliam story, so I'm still doing my best to find Grell's voice! As for the story itself, I have many things planned but not many I can say without spoilers! It's something new I'm trying and there is a semi-hint at a "big plot twist" in the title of the story but again, that's if I can pull off what I want to xD I will say that Will's ex will have more of a part fo play then I originally planned for her! There's some drama I'm looking forward to stirring up with her because who doesn't love some good drama? (for the record I do mean in story drama!) Conor is also of course not going anywhere, he'll be around to stir up his own drama with Grell because he's a character that won't take no for an answer!

I'd originally wanted Sebastian to have more of a part but I could really fit him in where I wanted him, so he gets an offscreen part!

I want there to be a lot more mystery to it and a lot more spooky scenes akin to Halloween! The backstory between Eric and William is slightly taken from my other fic Haunted Heart and I've always loved the idea of Alan and Grell being frenemies just because of the dress scene in the Most Beautiful Death musical! I'm getting more of the meat of the plot ironed out, which is why it's on a semi-hiatus right now, but I plan to get back to it very soon! You have my word anon!

Just went back and found those panels of William again and is this how it feels when ankles used to be scandalous? Because I saw just an extra fracton of skin more then usual of his wrist and I'm fanning myself going "good heavens." Is this what it's like to be a Victorian Gentleman? Is this what Grell feels like with Will? Because I understand.

I should sleep

I laughed far too hard at this

Huh. Well okay then.
