earl grey: favourite quote from your WIP?
hh admittedly I havent written a lot for the official wip yet, but i like this bit
The blacksmith's fire winked out, the healer's plants wilted, and the mayor lost the impossibility of his charm. Magic was used as a tool. and though it would be missed, the people would live without it. They would learn to cope, and learn together, learn to thrive without their lifelong gifts.
Hibiscus: what inspired your WIP?
I loved coming up with the elements of my wip. it began with a deck of cards theme because i think the aesthetic is cool. coming up with out-of-the-box powers is one of my favourite things to do, so i used the suits to inspire powers (i'll reblog later with what it is to see if anyone can guess) i didn't want to let the powers go to waste, so i came up with a fun setting with vague backstory and lore (admittedly partially inspired by a dnd podcast i listen to) and came up with characters i found fun that i then assigned the powers to as intuitively as i could
Earl Gray, English Breakfast, and Ginger for the tea asks?
— @sapphic-story
hellooo lee!! thank you for the ask
earl grey: favorite quote from your wip?
while this technically isn't part of the narrative, it is important and i like the style
Sometimes, when [Cuckoo] played with conjured light and sound and touch on her own, she imagined she was performing for the goddess, giving time, giving space that she never could in her first home. Cuckoo loved her magic, so she loved the goddesss.
english breakfast: favorite trope?
found family. everytime. there's something magical about choosing the people that mean everything to you, the complexity in the dynamics, the unconventional structure in loving everyone so completely because it was not chance, not fate, not blood that brought you together, but cherishing the people and giving the care all deserve
Lemongrass and Peppermint for the ask game? @writingonesdreamss
Hey! Thank you for the ask
lemongrass: favorite genre to read?
probably fantasy. there's something about the escapism into a magical world. i love the impossibility and the foreignness of something unlike our own world. spells and enchantments and dragons and folklore. it's such a classic for me and brings me so much joy
peppermint: what's your favorite way to overcome writer's block?
hmm... the best way i've found to continue writing when i can't write is to find something completely self indulgent. i write something without substance, just using elements i like and make me go slightly insane. it's easier to do something if you love it, so i'll give whatever is giving me trouble some space and do something else
Rosehip and chai for the ask meme!
Oops! This was a bit late. I hope you don’t mind
Rosehip: First person, third person limited, or third person omniscient?
Typically I write third person limited but switch perspectives. I like writing about what a person is thinking since i find that the easiest way to add intention to the scene. However, for A Quest of Cards and Calamity I am trying to write third person omniscient to branch out in style and try to get different experience. It’s been fun so far, but I have had to catch myself from slipping into narrating thoughts
Chai: Favorite character from your WIP?
Ohhh this is a VERY hard question. I hate you /j I can’t pick from the main cast so I think I’ll have to pick someone I haven’t even introduced. This character is named kingfisher and is a constantly tipsy, fun loving trapeze artist from cuckoo’s time working in the circus. Kingfisher just has such a fun design and way about interacting with the world. I can’t wait to write more
