hey i would love to see your take on a heejake cannibalism as a metaphor for love fic!!! finished deer hee and it was so beautiful
i'm honored that you enjoyed it! i would actually love to write a cannibalism fic for heejake, but i would definitely need to tinker around with the plot. in my jaywon fic where cannibalism was a major plot point, there was justifiable cause... and i don't really want to repeat THAT specific motive in another fic, since there's a lot like it already (esp for heejake) but...there is something else i've been playing with that i kind of want to work on. but i also feel bad making so many dark fics for heejake LOL ^^;; i am open to all sorts of ideas/suggestions/prompts though, if anyone has any direction they'd like to see this particular trope go into!

your writing is so beautiful
writing that drabble was SO fun because i have never actually used reddit a day in my life... i was so ecstatic that i'd basically bullshit the entire basis of it solely for the chance to write about sappy married heejake and their family!!! i love love love them and i'm so glad that you do too :) it means a lot to me that people still think of my drabbles and experience joy from them even after they've been gone from the tl.

He shld just wear a dress at this point 😏with how long his tshirts are 🥴
I'm so EXCITED TO READ DEAR HEE!! Sushi and basically everyone has been talking about it and I'm actually looking forward to read it. I think you just gave me a reason to live
how long does it take you (on average) to write your fics? like how long from having the idea to planning out the scenes and flow, then how long to actually writing a substantial amount of the fic? im writing my first bit of something and i cant tell if im being too picky to the point that im making no progress LMAO
i think i'm not a very good gauge for how long a fic should/shouldn't take (which i don't really think exists, considering it's very dependent on your personal workflow, if you have one) but if you're asking how i experience the general timeline, then i'd say that it really depends on how much care i put into an idea, as well as how interesting it is to me! my writing is very motive-based, so i only write when i'm certain i'm in the mood for it and have the ideas in my mind, but i'd say that on average it can take me anywhere from a couple of days (when i'm manically writing an idea i'm obsessed with) to a few months minimum. to be fair, i write really long fics, and if that's the case for you as well, then it'll more so be left to how much you feel comfortable writing at a time, or what you have lined up to get down on paper. i don't plan at all, i just write what comes to mind when it strikes me! sometimes i'll have a general outline of what i WANT to happen based on the fic idea, but since i have audhd and am also very impulsive in a more general sense, i just write at random and let the characters do whatever makes sense to me at the time (or to get to a specific thought i had, if i have one in mind).
sorry, i'm rambling by now. the tl;dr: if i have an idea, i start writing right there! if the idea sticks enough, it can take me like a week or two to get down 20-40k to post. it's a little less now that i'm working full-time. if it's an idea i'm struggling with more or don't feel motivated to write as much, then it's usually like 2-3 months for me to scrape the same amount together. i write a lot at a time, which is awesome if the ideas are flowing, but if not... then it's kind of all up in the air and dependent on me getting an idea for a scene. i don't plan or edit, so... yeah. for me it just happens and then it's done!
also, don't worry about being picky. it's YOUR work and your workflow can change a LOT based on how you want your fic to be/what you're happy with. you can be selective, but if you think you're being overly so, then maybe just try to dip your fingers into a few avenues/ideas and see which one strikes your fancy the most? that's what i do, anyway! also, even if you have a strict structure that helps create a rough guesstimate timeline, sometimes it's going to take longer if the scenes you have lined up/planned aren't coming out right and you have to revisit them later for a second go. there's no shame in having to make multiple drafts either if certain parts aren't working out over other parts. most of my friends do it in order to get a more finalized and refined version for their final fic! i don't personally do that because i don't have structure, but i think it's very useful and an effective way to sift out all of the imperfections, as you might call them. writing doesn't have a timeline at all, and some stuff is going to go wayyyy faster than other stuff based off of your chemistry with the idea, but if you're concerned with it, then definitely try tips like those. i'm an abnormality in that field and therefore am not a good judge of time (like i said haha) but yeah... whatever your favorite part of the process is, enjoy that part, and the parts that are less so - see if you can gloss over them just enough that they aren't blocking you from making progress elsewhere. there's a good chance you might be able to go back with a different enough viewpoint and get it done a lot quicker than if you lingered there to begin with!
i hope this was helpful. it's a long ass answer and i didn't mean for it to be :") best of luck on whatever you're writing, i just know it'll be great regardless!!
okay kind of a weird question i know but i’m curious. why do you have 2 bdays? i do too but that’s because where i’m from we have two calendars and it’s not fixed so that’s why i became even more curious as to how you can have two birthdays that are fixed on the same calendar?

saw this while scrolling and thought of your hjk reddit drabble
https://x.com/rcvkii/status/1812537903743955440?s=46 you can join group orders! i mostly join through instagram. @/flirtwons is like an enha doll god so i’d recommend following her. also if you see a doll you like make sure to keep an eye on the creators account because they’ll usually link whoever is hosting a go. i hope you can find some! do beware that it’s an addiction tho lol i’ve lost count of how many i have
i'm so glad people are sharing these things with me!! i think the only reason i never actively pursue GOs is because the wording seems very Final and i'm realllly scared i'm gonna fuck it up because i lowkey don't understand how it works and the rules kinda frighten me lol... but i want one so badddd so maybe i should just brave the fear TT
i think about your non-binary jek every single day. i’m sososoooo appreciative of creators like you. you’re so lovely ❤️
hiiiii i love ur works so much! would like to ask if you still have plans for and out it comes, warm wisps of love? :)
i hope tjis isnt too imposing but when do you think you can post another fic on ao3? i know youve been posting snippets of several stuff and i like everything i swear!!! but i miss reading longer works from u and ive been rereading deer hee too much i fear i can summarize it in my sleep
i’m really very sorry i haven’t been posting anything! the tl;dr is that i’ve relocated, been working full time and have lost a lot of the normal time/energy i usually have to finish up most of my longer wips :( i really really want to finish deer hee before i start posting my other ideas, but nowadays i’ve just been trying hard to finish anything at all. i promise the moment i do, i will be sure to put it up!
AHHH im the anon who messaged abt ur abo heejake... YOUR SNIPPET ROCKII!! ROCKII!!! i love them so much. sweet soft baby hee refusing to give in to not only his own desires but to an omega in heat right in front of him solely because he doesn't want to hurt jake... i'm in pain. the scenting and the 'im always thinking of you' and jake reimaging that his first time was as lovely as this T-T please tell me they realize theyre in love. they must rockii theres no way
