where do you get inspiration for your stories?
I don't actually know... but a lot of my story ideas come from thinking of subversion of tropes. My hanahaki fic is a good example of this, and so is my otome game fic. A lot of my ideas also come from stories I'd want to read. I read a lot of fic, so I tend to have a good idea of what I like to read and the stories I'd like to see happen. But a lot of my stories are me smashing ideas together, assigning it a vibe, and hoping it lands where I throw it 💜

Just wondering, do you also have a close friend group with other writers?
I have a close friend group with other creators but none of them are "fandom famous" and for their privacy, I won't disclose who they are. I am good friends with other writers though, but all our interactions are outside of Twitter because I'm a very private person, but also a very busy person.
I don't mind talking and making friends though! My DMs are open as long as no one goes in and does some funny business in there. I'm also much more active elsewhere than I ever have been on Twitter. Twitter simply scares me and exhausts me, and I don't have the bandwidth or security to post personal things about my life on there or even interact with other creators who I'm friends with there 💜

Hii Moomoo! I missed talking to you! <333
Tell me of any WIPs you're working on? Feel free to use this to ramble about it if you want! <3
Omg Aerynn!! 💜💜 I missed talking to you too!! Been a bit busier but I’m always open to conversation! Just terrible at starting them. But I miss sprinting with you 💜💜
Unfortunately my current wips are both under unofficial NDA 😭😭 so I can’t ramble too much but I’m almost finished with the one for the fantasy zine!! The other wip I’ll just say is an exes to lovers story and I’m really really excited for it. Going to see if I can break [redacted] word count with the story because my outline is looking that way ✌️but, let’s just say all the “childhood friends to lovers” stories I’ve been reading from my Haikyuu Volleyball Gays have really inspired me to write something of a similar style!!
I don’t want to spoil too much though! I wanna see if you can guess which story is mine when all the fics are released 😉

hi moomoo ilu moomoo tell me about your volleyball boys or anything else that's brought you joy recently!!!
Hi Clover!!!! 💜 love you too 💜💜 The volleyball boys still have the biggest chokehold on me. They are severely debilitating when I want to write or sleep. But I’ve been reading some real sweet childhood friends to lovers stories because of them and remembering how dumb teenage boys are 💜
They’re slowly weening my burn out and getting me back to writing consistently though so I can’t be too hard on the volleyball boys I guess lol

what is your favorite thing to see in fanfic? like favorite tropes/writing styles etc?
My favorite trope has always been sickfics or hurt/comfort storylines. Absolute favorite thing is to see characters taking care of each other 💜 Touch-starvation, too, falls in that same category. It’s for that same reason that I have a soft spot for soft omegaverse fics. I love the concept of scenting and nesting 💜
In terms of writing styles, I don’t have many comments other than I am unfortunately not much of a purple prose girlie 🥲 Writing style is the thing that can turn me off of a story the fastest, but also the thing that I find harder to quantify. Sometimes I just don’t vibe with the writing, even if I really wanted to. Admittedly, I am very picky when it comes to writing style, but I will read almost any trope under the sun if I vibe with the story!! 💜 As the saying goes, I am always one good story away from finding a new favorite trope 💜

hiii 🥺 i am absolutely enamored with your work!!! you write alhaitham and kaveh so well!!! i was wondering if you take writing comms, or if that's something you'd consider?? thanks you so much for fueling my love for hkvh omegaverse 💘
Oh 🥹 thank you so much!! Commissions are something I have considered, I just wouldn’t know how to price myself—and I’m not sure if I have the kind of reach where people would be interesting in commissioning me haha 💜
But if there’s something you’d like me to try to write, I’m always open to informal requests! Both my Twitter and tumblr DMs should be open and I would be happy to write a request if you’d like me to, Anon! 💜
Thank you for your sweet message!! I’m really honored you’ve been enjoying my a/b/o works and my Alhaitham and Kaveh🥹 💜

Just curious, why is your penname “intensely reading”?
Because when I started this ao3 account, I was young and dumb and never thought I’d actually post under this pseudonym 😅 I was just using it to read ao3 fics
It’s stuck though, and it’s my fandom email. But for those who’d like to refer to me less awkwardly, I also answer to Moomoo! 💜

I love your works! They always made me feel things! ❤ With that said, I like finding out what my favorite authors like to read. Do you have some authors to recommend?
Awww thank you so much!! 🥹🥹🥹 I’m really honored to hear it! I feel like I sound like a repeating record whenever I thank people but I do genuinely appreciate everyone who’s talked to me about my stories! I wouldn’t be posting them if it didn’t make people happy and feel things 💜
In terms of authors I recommend… I don’t actually read a lot of specific authors, but almost all of my bookmarks are public and they’re all stories I have enjoyed if you needed fic recommendations!! 💜
Specific authors that come to mind are Babenclaw, Moepuff, and Ae_rynn. They’re all very sweet people and their works are ones I’d recommend always!
Bringingglory and Seelei too I’d recommend, and Moonsteps as well who I recently found out I’ve actually read stuff from them outside of Alhaitham and Kaveh.
Currently, through a recommendation (and if you are 18+), I’ve been reading stories by Daisy_Dupes (again, only if you are 18+). Katraa too in the same vein. Both of their works I’ve liked and the spicy scenes are handled well.
Honestly, I will read just about anything and can give recommendations for a lot of different tropes (but only specifically for Alhaitham and Kaveh) so if you ever wanted to know what I’ve recently read, check my bookmarks 😉

which fic did you have the most trouble writing/getting out?
Any NSFW fic or anything that has had any bit of a spicy scene. NSFW scenes force my brain to bend in some way because I can’t write anything without being able to visualize what’s happening.
But! Outside of NSFW, in terms of writing, it has to be the Me Before You AU (named “We’ll draw the curtains (and never leave home)”) simply because of how mentally draining that story was to write given the feelings both Kaveh and Alhaitham were feeling. I was never in a dark place because of that story but it was tiring.
Also that one 77k story I wrote for Zhongli and Childe because I am not built for long fic.

Which of your works is your personal fave?
Oooooo omg. Oh my god. Honestly, my overall favorite is probably my hanahaki fic. Hanahaki is a trope I’m really picky about and I’ve rarely ever seen the surgery method actually used (which I always thought was weird). I also think that since it took so long for me to return that story because of all the other stories I was working on at the time, going back to it was exciting. Like returning a close friend.
Idk, I’m just a huge sucker for writing progressions, and that story was all about progression and returning back to what they used to be but better because they both understood each other more. And!!! I’ve said this so many times but returning to being best friends with someone because they matter that much to you? 🥹
I could talk about that story for hours haha. But I will say I usually love most of my stories and can talk about any of them for hours 💜

What is your favourite activity?
Im so sorry I never saw this 🥲 when I’m not writing or genshining I’m actually reading fics by other authors! 💜 I have a pretty big recs list because of it too haha
I also adore listening to music! I’m classically trained in the violin and when I had more time I would play it! Haven’t had much time these days but it is something I want to get back to eventually 💜
