9 and 21 šŸ˜®

Thank you! ā™„ļø (this one got a bit long, sorry!)

9. Favourite/lease favourite tropes?

Oh. Man.
I would like to preface this by saying I’m not trying to step on anyone’s toes or anything, these are just my personal preferences when it comes to fic writing (or reading).

I’ll start positive and list my favourite tropes.
I’ve recently gotten into bad brother AUs, but particularly for Underfell, with bad brother Red.

I’m not sure if this counts as a trope, but I also love it when the Sanses are depicted as the older brothers (this includes Underswap, and Swapfell, where the Papys are conventionally older). I’m not sure why? I just… like it..??

And of course, one of my *absolute* favourites – the good old ā€˜enemies to lovers’ trope. I think that might explain why I’m so obsessed with spicyhoney.

And as for least favourite tropes… a lot.
Abusive Fell Papyrus (or any Papyrus to be honest) falls somewhere near the top of the list. It’s just a very ā€œughā€ depiction of his character for me. I could never see myself writing him that way, and I tend to avoid reading a lot of fics that portray him as outright abusive.

I’m also not really into Yandere stuff. I can get behind less intense or if it’s depicted in a specific way, but usually it’s not for me.

And… this one’s kind of silly hehe, but as far as smut goes, I’m not really that into bottom Sans? It’s honestly not a huge thing for me haha, I’m not terribly fussy in that department, but if I were to write any smut involving the Sanses, I’d likely depict them as dominant.

21. What aspect of your writing are you most proud of?

Aaaah no šŸ˜…šŸ˜… I’m not very good at answering these.
I still think I have so much to improve on, but I will admit, I think I’m getting better at depicting emotion. I still find it hard to do *extremely* heavy scenes, so they take me a while to write. Sometimes it takes me hours to write just one scene, if I’m struggling to pinpoint the character’s emotions. But I’m normally fairly happy with the end product.
And… I like some of the angsty plot ideas I’m able to come up with. Sometimes it takes a little brainstorming, but I find I’m often pleasantly (or unpleasantly hehe) surprised at the new ways I’m able to hurt my faves.

Sorry, this got away from me a bit.
