for the behind the scenes fic writing ask thingie: 8, 10, 18 :)


hiii Nea 💛

8.Do you listen to music while you write? If so, share a song that’s been inspiring you lately.

I do listen to music! I have my little (and big) playlists made for my main ships and in some cases for specific fics too… currently one of the songs that has been giving me beans for my bucktommy wip is Ar Dân by Iwan Rheon (yes, that Iwan Rheon) ✨

10.Do you enjoy writing dialogue, exposition, or plot the most?

probably I’d say dialogue, because I have such a linguistic boner for learning and working with the speech patterns of certain characters 🤭

18.What is a line/scene you’re really proud of? Give us the DVD commentary for that scene.

might not be what I’m most proud of but what comes to mind is this line in If This Is What The Season Is Bringing and it’s a very simple one — as is the whole fic, really.

He turned to see— Eddie. Because of course it was Eddie.

“Hey,” he said gently, shutting the door behind himself and Buck knew it was a little irrational right now, but it still warmed his heart that Eddie came and went like this; that he knew no matter what, he was always welcome here — just like Buck was always welcome at his place.

Like one home split into two.

when I wrote it, I just knew it’ll turn @sunshinediaz into putty, so I was very gleeful about that while writing, but also I just feel like it’s fundamentally true, you know? their homes are each other’s safe places where they can go to hide from the rest of the world when they need it.
