[Insert insane car crashing sounds here as I drag my poor body towards this askbox] god where to even start???
I think most of the general fandom sphere has a vague idea of said phenomenon where you just kinda find an author that body-slams you with just sheer unparalled skill and awesomeness and FEELINGS all at once that leave you at awe and where you genuinely have to just. Stare for a bit at the wall next to you to gather some thoughts and then you realize that hey, wait a minute, stop and rewind, there's more????? More fics??? More awesomeness??? Yeah anyhow that's what my little experience with a good chunk of your fics was like over the past two days (or well, the ones I couldn't help but devour at 3 am two nights before my exam, as god intended ) (said exam is tomorrow but let's not think too much about that shall we)
I'm actually trying to comment most of the time but just this once I feel the need to kinda generally scream at the void just to relay how wonderful your stories are? The prose and writing itself is fluent and vivid and just so fun but I think what instantly shook me was just?? Your ability to leave a super personal fingerprint in everything you write and GOD I have genuinely lost count at how much I've laughed out loud, be it either from the premise itself or the comedic timing. Or where the moody nature really struck with me (yes that is a reference to your zb1 ventures )
Maybe I'm just the painful target audience here (
Either way, May you have a wonderful day :)
[insert pots and pans banging noises as i trip on my way to rush to answer this lovely ask] HIIIIIIII
i hope your exams went well!!!! they should be over by now,,, hope i did not accidentally distract you from studying too much... if you ever want to drop by my dms pls feel free know that i am much more active in dms than i am on tl generally (am shy) (am terrible at interacting) and i am always happy to talk abt fic and whatever im working on ;)))
i'm so glad you enjoy my writing TAT i think i do have a style that can be pretty hit or miss depending on what tone of prose you like to read, and im always happy to hear it works for other people too. it's very uh... stream on consciousness-fourth wall breaking and sometimes it lands with people and sometimes it doesn't. i'm delighted to hear that it works for you :))))
also jaw dropped at you going to read my zb1 fic too... i think i was in a super specific mindset when i was writing strike below the ribs that i don't think im tapping into again any time soon but it's definitely a stylistic thing i want to try again.... maybe one day...
have a wonderful wonderful day too!!!!! once again feel free to dm me or send more asks!!!! despite relative quietness on the tl im never shut up in dms so. if you want any sneak peeks into what im working on, that's definitely the avenue to go ;)))
