01. Which is your favorite fic?
Fate and Gravity - Jared/Jensen BigBang 2010
There are few fics of mine I like, but this one I love the most. Perhaps because I have the whole world created around it, perhaps because it's so adorably fluffy. I just truly love it and enjoy reading it sometimes. :D
02. Which is your best-received fic?
Naked as a Window - Asexual!Sherlock, John fic.
It was greatly received (far better than I expected) and I'm very glad it turned out this way.
From other fics that were well-received I can only think of Polish fic titled "Fiolka". I swear, it's like people know nothing about me, but tell them I wrote this Severus/potion's vial fic and they suddenly remember. XD
03. Which is your worst-received fic?
Take a Walk Down Lonely Street - Mulder/Krycek, Skinner/Scully X-Files BigBang
Oh, there are lots of those. Not to mention the first attempts at writing and all this mess. But I'm going with this one, because, okay, I'm willing to agree that it sucked, but still it was a bigbang and so it sucked even more for no one to even bother with writing "wow, over 15,000 words of suckiness".
04. Which is your angsty-est fic?
And you keep going round and round… - Supernatural, Sam/Dean with mentions of others, possibly more disturbing pairings. Lots of Dean angst.
That's a tricky one, because I know perfectly well what's the angsty-est fic I've ever written, but I can't link you to it, 'cause it's my Sherlock BigBang and I just sent the draft. But beware, when it'll be posted in January? The angsty-est fic of mine, EVER. (But there is a happy end XD). For now though, the angsty-est SPN fic I've ever wrote.
05. Which is your funniest fic?
The Great Comedians - Hetalia fic mostly about Poland.
That's a though one, 'cause I tend to atempt humor in my Polish fics and I would rather link to the English ones to keep some order in here. I guess I was atempting some humor in my Hetalia ficlets, so there.
06. Smuttiest?
Hunger of My Soul - Sam/Dean Wincest Spell-Sex.
Damn, there is one, but I've never posted it as me... And I sorta lost the link. XD The smuttiest it seems are either unposted or posted anonymously as Xmas gifts. XD So, that's the only one that's on my masterlist and is rated NC-17. Light NC-17, but still.
07. Fluffiest?
Hips Before Hands - X-Files, Skinner/Mulder FLUFF.
Oh, boy. Well, to be honest I would have to link to "Fate and Gravity" once again. But trying to find something new I bring you fluffiest Skinner EVER.
08. Have you ever made someone cry with a fic?
Kiss Your Past Goodnight (And Let It Sleep) - X-Files, pretty long and pretty messed up Mulder/Krycek fic.
... I think so? Can't know for sure, obviously. I already linked to the fic that made me cry. So, uhm, another one? XD I was tear-eyed while writing some scenes in this fic. *shrugs* I tend to get like that.
09. Which fic frustrates you the most?
When The Trickster Starts A-Poking - SPN, Sam/Gabriel, Dean/Castiel fic.
The fic I planned for the last X-Files BigBang and never complished. I want to finish it one day and I WILL. For now it's just being annoying plot-bunny.
From the ones I actually finished and posted it's my first Sam/Gabe fic, most definitely. I was so obsessed with the pairing that all my thoughts about it and small plot-bunnies tried to wriggle their way into the fic. I think it did the fic some good actually, but it was a hell to write.
10. Which fic was the most fun to write?
Not Even a Kiss - X-Files, Mulder&Scully friendship fic.
I wanted to link to "Kiss Your Past Goodnight (And Let It Sleep)" again for it was the first fic in English I wrote so long and without any prompting, just because I had this plot-bunny. Eventually I chose this one, because it was fun to finally write what I think about Mulder/Scully.
11. Who is your favorite OC you've ever created?
Grandma from Fate and
Gravity.
12. Are you better at one-shot or multi-part?
I keep on having plot-bunnies for multi-parts, but I love one-shots. I would love to get back to writing one-shots that actually make sense.
13. What character do you think you're the best at portraying?
Lately I am told that Sherlock and I would like to believe that. I feel really good writing Mulder too. Writing "Kiss Your Past Goodnight (And Let It Sleep)" started with me thinking: hey! I never write from his perspective! And it was nice to change that. I also really love writing Scully, but I'm certain I mess her up every damn time.
14. What character is the most difficult to portray?
I just wrote bigbang which focused on John. It was a hardship and I'm not entirely sure I succeeded even in the smallest way. But let me tell you who I really always fear of writing: Mycroft, Smoker, Krycek, John Winchester.
15. Tag five other authors!
I would love to see all of you do it. ^_^
