14: Do you have a go-to AU?
I don’t just have one. I have many!
Genderswap would be the first. Omegaverse would be two. Werewolves/vampires would be three.
But I’ve done lizards, teapots, shapeshifting dragons, wolves & ravens, parrots, candle shop, ghosts, really, a lot of them.
22: Are you more likely to be the person who starts reading a 100k slow burn fic at midnight or the person who starts writing a drabble at 4 a.m.?
Definitely the 4 am drabble. I don’t usually read fics of more than 5k words unless there’s a very compelling reason (i.e., a good friend wrote it). But I did write one of my most popular fics (Nights are for sharing, Snow White/Seven Dwarves PWP) between 6 am and 9 am one Saturday morning.
31: mythological creature AU or superhero AU?
Definitely mythological AU. I tried to look up on AO3 the old Sherlock series of about 12 fics where Sherlock is different mythological characters. I couldn’t find it. If was written by a BNF, I think. Maybe one of the old timers know which one I am thinking of. It was a big inspiration for me as far as writing horror/darker stuff and one of the series absolutely blew me away and was the first time I thought 'fic can be just as good (and even better) than traditional literature).'
Except for (very tangentially) Doctor Strange’s Cloak of Levitation and Wonder Woman, I don’t really follow the superhero fandoms.
