[Check in] April

[bluesargently]

Check in 3!! Wow. Time’s flying like mad around here. I hope you’ve all been going well with this so far.
This update isn’t compulsory, but we’d still love to hear from you! So, after last month’s getting to know you questions, we’d like to follow on with a few more fanwork-related questions:

• What’s a femslash ship you’ve always wanted to write for

What’s a femslash ship you’ve always wanted to write for but never have? I'd love to write Lavender/Parvati, Fleur/Hermione and Brittana.

Who’s your favourite canon wlw character or is there one that isn’t a canon wlw, but want to be? why? Santana Lopez <333

How you’ve been going with fic/fanwork? (this doesn’t have to be answered) Got anything done yet? I haven't made any progress since the last check in due to real life, but I'm confident that I'll get back on track soon enough.

What’s a femslash ship you’ve always wanted to write for but never have? Natasha Romanoff/Wanda Maximoff, especially in MCU. I made a fanmix last summer, but I haven't been struck by any story ideas for them yet.

Who’s your favourite canon wlw character or is there one that isn’t a canon wlw, but want to be? why? ...I admit I'm not sure what w|w means. I'm not good at keeping up with fandom shorthand. X3;;

How you’ve been going with fic/fanwork? (this doesn’t have to be answered) Got anything done yet? I've finally started my fic. It's only a paragraph so far, but that's something?

FYI "wlw" means "woman who loves women", meaning it's inclusive of lesbians AND bisexual women, and pansexual women, and polysexual women who include women as one of the genders they prefer, and those who identify as "queer" or refuse labels but seem to date or have hookups with women, etc, etc... and my personal interpretation/guess is also that it's inclusive of really anyone who could work in a femslash pairing, probably biromantic, panromantic, or homoromantic asexual women as well.

Thanks!! I suspected it must be something like that, but I didn't know all the nuances of the term.

What’s a femslash ship you’ve always wanted to write for but never have?Always?? Lol idk. I only recently (like end of 2015) dived into all of Pretty Little Liars so it really hasn't been that long but I've been thinking about exploring writing the canon Emily/Alison ship ever since I started the show, and the more I watched the more I felt like there is so much room there for fanfiction. I haven't watched the second half of season 6 yet but I have been all caught up, otherwise, with the show for months. I at least want to vid them sometime soon, and more than just collab parts. So many songs now are reminding me of them and making me think I could make epic Emison vids... lol

What’s a femslash ship you’ve always wanted to write for but never have? I've always wanted to write Luna/Ginny because I am so in love with that pairing <3

Who’s your favourite canon wlw character or is there one that isn’t a canon wlw, but want to be? why? Tara from BtVS. She was one of the first characters I really ever identified with (still not over her death >.<). I also like Tara from The Walking Dead (I have a thing about Taras apparently xD) because she's pretty awesome but she's had two girlfriends and they both died so I'm not happy about that

How you’ve been going with fic/fanwork? (this doesn’t have to be answered) Got anything done yet? I've not written anything yet, but I'm not worried.

I can't believe I've never written Bo/Lauren, they're one of my few canon ships.

I've also written surprisingly little Supercat and Cartinelli given how much I ship them too, but I have now written a tiny bit for them.

Who’s your favourite canon wlw character or is there one that isn’t a canon wlw, but want to be? why?
RUBY LUCAS from OUAT. She's only just been canonically confirmed as bi and I'm still very excited about that (even if I am sad that the Ruby/Dorothy relationship was rushed and confined to one episode only, still that fact that there's now a canon femslash ship in ouat is amazing)!
