I have sort of returned from my unannounced hiatus! Woohoo! And there are a bunch of tags from like May that I haven't gotten around to. Let's do it!

1.Write the rules.
2. Write 13 things about yourself.
3. Answer the 13 questions made by the person who tag you, and make your own 13 questions.
4. Tag 13 deviants. And I mean ONLY 13!
5. Make sure that they know that they are tagged.
6. Tag backs are allowed.

(I deleted a ton of rules from here that were really chain-mail-y like 'you HAVE to tag peopleeee' because... really... this is 2016...)

Questions from :iconcreativebomb:

1. Do you like waffles? I do!

2. 
If you could live in one story genre (sci-fi, medieval fantasy, magical girl, steam punk, etc), what would you pick and why? Fantasy, beyond a doubt. Magic, politics, and really pretty forests? Yes, please.

3. 
Favorite flavor? Salty, sweet, savory, etc. Salty/savory combo. Like pretzels but also bread.

4. 
Who likes the rain?! YASSS

5. 
If you had to choose between holding a boa constrictor or a tarantula, which would you choose? I've held both, so... boa constrictor, simply because it's less scratchy and weird than a tarantula (their hair is kinda uncomfortable.)

6. 
Mustard or mayo, mustard or mayo, mustard or mayo~? Mustard for LIFE #teammustard 

7. 
And on that note, what's your favorite cartoon? Past AND present? Past? Pokemon anime, haha. I loved that stuff as a kid. Today, it would have to be Phineas and Ferb. Who doesn't love Phineas and Ferb?

(Meowth! That's right!)

Bonus: Team Rocket's blasting off agaaaiiiiin....

9. 
Pants or dresses/skirts? Pants, but honestly I don't care too much. You can sit lazily with pants tho.

10.
 Do you treat your OCs as real people~? Your chiiiiildren? Who doesn't? XD

11. 
Can you tell me why the hell there's so many questions, Jesus H Jesus... I'm sorry, but I am not Jesus and therefore cannot accurately give an answer to this question.

12. 
RP with me~? :3c No time ;-; I'm so sorryyyy

13. 
And finally...the most important question of all...Mech Suit, or Magical Girl powers? Daaaaang..... probably Magical Girl powers though.


... does it look like I have any questions for people to answer?
Actually, yes I do!!
I'm doing a weird thing and writing an academic essay in my spare time on the Great Snape Debate - is he a horrible person, or simply misunderstood? I'd be very curious to hear what your initial thoughts are. Any book passages that stick out to you? Any insights into his character? What's your personal opinion?

I did it! I won NaNo this year with a grand total of ~53k words!

I finished 2 days early and still managed to write a few more in my spare time just for fun. Writing daily is going to be a new goal of mine--I'd forgotten just how much fun writing something I really enjoy is, and it's a passion I want to keep pursuing. :) I had tons of fun doing NaNo this month, and I'm so psyched to keep working on my projects and get better!

Did anyone else do NaNo this year? Y'all should join me for Camp NaNoWriMo in April--you can set your own goal (since 50k is a lot). I'll probably be going for about 10,000-ish, but you can change yours to whatever you want. :) Anyone up for it?

NaNo Update!

1 min read
So far, so good.

I've written 15k so far (and we have a school holiday tomorrow, so I'm hoping to reach 20k!) The John/Reader fic is... not going quite as well as I've hoped. It'll be updated and finished hopefully very soon, but I've run into a wall and have decided to start on a pretty cool Harry Potter fic involving Hermione, time travel, and the Marauders Era. It's going so much better than the John fic--I've got over 5k on it so far and have only been writing for a few days. I'm a little nervous about trying to write the Marauders... but hopefully I'll do okay.

I'm on track so far, though, and that's all I really wanted to report! Anyone else doing NaNo? How are you all doing?

psst. I'm NightWings on the site. You can find me here! Add me as a buddy if you want!

Hey all!

Exciting news! I've decided on a NaNoWriMo project, and this year it's going to be a little rebellious: I'll be focusing on finishing my John/Reader fanfiction (tentatively called Held Captive) and once that's complete I'll dabble in some other fanfiction I've been meaning to write (my Kidlock series, some oneshot ideas, perhaps a Harry Potter fanfiction that isn't a reader insert... wouldn't that be a shocker?) Hooray!

I probably won't be publishing it all as soon as I finish. I have plans to take the entire story and edit it a little to add coherence and believably once it's complete. Oh shucks! An excuse for you to reread it! Isn't that terrible? *a pool of sarcasm puddles around my feet* Ahem.

Look forward to more coming soon :) The bulk of it will probably be published in December, and it'll be all edited and ready to be re-read by January or February some time. I'm really excited about this, guys! I'm finally going to finish this thing once and for all, and it's going to be awesome!

I was tagged by the lovely moneyoniis to do this little character quiz! Jenya will be answering these, as she's my only student at OW.

Question 1: What's your name, and why did you decide to enroll in Otherworlde Academy?

My name is Jenya, and I decided to join the academy once I was old enough because my dad heard about it and encouraged me to go. He and I are both shapeshifters, but he does a better job at concealing it than I. He's not the best teacher, though, so I couldn't learn from him how to do it. It was getting a lot harder to hide my ability, so we started looking into options. I didn't want to homeschool, so when we found Otherworlde I was pretty excited. Plus, there's other kinds of magic to learn than just controlling my own species-specific powers! I want to take all the classes there are... but I'm pretty sure they don't allow that, so I'm sticking with linguistics for now.
Question 2: What classes have you taken so far, and what do you think of them?
Oh, I kind of answered that already! I've taken LIN 101, 102, and 103 so far--that is, written and spoken magics and animal magic. I'm loving them so far, but as it turns out I'm not actually as excited about animal magics as the others. I might change my track next term to something different.

Question 3: Who is your favorite teacher?
I'm only taking Razik's classes at the moment, so him. He's really fun, though--and he's very personable. I like that he makes an effort to talk to all of his students.

Question 4: Social skills time! What friends have you made here in the academy?
Woooo... more than I expected.

I'm rooming with Lillith (who is slowly driving me crazy, but I still manage to like her). Kerzendocht and I have a lot of fun together; we've worked on assignments together, and I get to show her things she hasn't heard about before. I like explaining stuff, so I enjoy it a lot. I also met a pretty cool upperclassman named Theon; we both really like music, which is actually really exciting because basically no one listens to music here.

Question 5: And enemies, those are important. Did you make any enemies?
Not yet, thank goodness. But Theon and I have made plans to visit the Alternate Room, and I'm kind of scared of what my reflection will be like.

Question 6: See anyone attractive that you might have a crush on? ;D Be honest!
I... ah... *awkward mumbling* Theon is kind of cute? But the word on the street is that he just got out of a serious relationship and I'm not even looking to date anyone right now. So to answer the question, no. I don't have a crush on anyone.

Question 7: Do you support any ships/pairings at the academy?
I tend to avoid anyone who is actively PDA-ing around, so... I don't even know who's together or what. Whoops.

Question 8: What weaknesses are you trying to make up for in your studies?
Well... I procrastinate a lot. Also, it's still hard for me to summon magic at will. It takes a lot more concentration than I'd like, so I want to get faster at manipulating it.

Question 9: If you suddenly switched bodies with the person (or a person) from Question 5, what would you do?
If I switched bodies with my (currently non-existent) alternate? I have no idea what would happen. Nothing good, I would guess.
Question 10: What if you switched bodies from the person in Number 6?
I would probably go talk to the Coven witches Theon is friendly with and casually interact with them. I don't think they'd ever want to talk with me personally, so I could at least get to know them then. *realizes just how sad her life really is*

Question 11: Do you know any upperclassmen?
Just Theon, I think. :)

Question 12: Who scares you the most in the academy? Student, teacher, etc.
I wouldn't say I'm really scared of anyone... except maybe Carter because of this one time I--ah, never mind. He doesn't even know I exist, so it's cool.

Question 13: Who inspires you the most in the academy? Student, teacher, etc.
Anyone who's managing to keep up with assignments.

Question 14: If you had to kill one student who wasn't in Question 5, who would you pick? 
Wow... um? No idea? If I absolutely had to I suppose I would kill someone who was already suicidal or something? Or perhaps someone who can regenerate. I'd have to ask around.

Question 15: Is there anyone on campus you would die for to protect them?
I'm not really that kind of person, but I suppose Kerzendocht is a pretty close friend who I might do that for if I had the chance. I'm not selfish, I just have a high sense of self-preservation, I guess.
People mentioned:
  • Lillith (c) :iconmusicpackwolf:
  • Kerzendocht (c) :iconcreativebomb:
  • Theon & Razik (c) :iconyekrutslover:
If y'all feel like it, go do it. Consider yourself tagged. If not, I don't really care, so no worries! ^^
