1_million_words here.
1. Describe your comfort zone—a typical you-fic.
Something pretty light and fluffy, with mild angst. Usually very relationship focused, romantic in the spotlight but making sure to highlight some friendships as well. When I began writing, I used to be a lot more melodramatic, in the style of soap operas and older Bollywood movies. There's less crying these days and I *try* to make them act like the adults they usually are, though I won't hesitate to still lean into some communication issues. :D
2. Is there a trope you’ve yet to try your hand at, but really want to?
I'd love to do a soul bond fic. It's different than a soulmate one, a trope that I am working on right now for one of my WIP Big Bang stories, and it's interesting to think about that kind of connection. Also time travel. The implications and how things could change. The hard part is having to think about time travel! Or arranged marriage, especially in an AU where Krypton still exists.
3. Is there a trope you wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole?
A/B/O. It isn't for me.
4. How many fic ideas are you nurturing right now? Care to share one of them?
Always too many. There's a reason that I have a separate post that I keep to myself where I note down my fic ideas. It keeps them in the same place rather than the 25 different word docs which only have a one line summary. There's a few ideas that have stuck around, like the canon divergence Smallville fic where Clark goes through the portal at the end of Salvation or an NFL AU or a Clois Noir AU since I will forever feel robbed by the episode.
5. Share one of your strengths.
Tough to say. Maybe dialogue? I try to do my best with the characterization and voices and hopefully it comes off right.
