Subscription/Access Policy:
- I generally subscribe back if we have shared interests and if the vibes are good. I don't really have access-locked posts yet, so I don't have a clear policy on that for now.
- I'm queer, sex positive, anti-censorship in media and fiction, and anti-generative AI. If this is a problem, please refrain from subscribing, thank you!
- Minors are generally fine; any possible adult content will be age-restricted as needed.
Main Fandoms: Fire Emblem: Three Houses, My Hero Academia
Other Fandoms: Spy x Family, Hetalia, Dangan Ronpa, Hunter x Hunter, Orb: On the Movements of the Earth
Fannish Interests: Writing fanfics, making fanart, participating in community events or challenges, meta, rambling about headcanons or just thoughts about a thing in general
OTPs and Ships: I'm not very particular about top/bottom dynamics; I have preferences, but I'm fine with whichever arrangement. I'm also a huge multi-shipper and if I list everything out, this will get really long, so I'll just list my top ships lol
FE3H
- Sylvain Jose Gautier / Felix Hugo Fraldarius
- Marianne von Edmund / Hilda Valentine Goneril
- Caspar von Bergliez / Linhardt von Hevring
- I'm also into Caspar von Bergliez / Ashe Ubert / Linhardt von Hevring <3
My Hero Academia
- Todoroki Shouto / Bakugo Katsuki / Midoriya Izuku (poly ship/OT3, but all variations are okay too, like BakuDeku or TodoBaku, etc.)
- In order of preference, it's BakuDeku, TodoDeku, and TodoBaku
- Kaminari Denki / Jiro Kyouka
- Togata Mirio / Amajiki Tamaki
Other ships: Killugon, Hisoillu, Okubade, Twiyor, Damianya, USUK, GerIta
Movies: Chicago, Spirited Away, Forrest Gump, Star Wars (1-6; I've also watched 7-9 but I honestly don't remember much)
Other Anime/Manga: Code Geass, 86, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Naruto, Chainsaw Man, The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity, Dungeon Meshi, Sousou no Frieren; I tend to like a lot of shounen/seinen, but I also like slice-of-life, comedy, and romcoms.

Nov. 23rd, 2025 09:33 pmfleetsparrow posting in writethisfanficHello, all! I hope your day has been full of writing or resting or at least something fun!
Discussion: Oh boy. Here we are at another week, huh. How'd that even happen? But enough mourning the inexorable passage of time!
This week sees--for those of us in the States--a major holiday which often correlates to major stress; it's not the most conducive to writing! But there's still a bit of time on either side of the holiday for the possibility of writing. (And for y'all not in an American Thanksgiving world, it will just be Thursday.)
So, what are your writing plans for the coming week?
