Another Good Question From @the-wip-project On Day 10 Of This Challenge.

Thank you

Thank you @alexispayton for Fleimkepa! Such a creative and imaginative piece that felt so true to Clarke and Lexa's characters, at least where their character arcs were going before ... he who shall not be named scuttled them. And the last line, so perfect!

So beautiful

Lexa + Who she is.

Q22: What’s your favorite trope you’re not writing and why?

A22: Best friends to lovers. In my wip, the protagonist is pansexual whereas her bff is a gay man who comes out during the story. I want to show a healthy(ish) friendship between a man and a woman without sexual tension or romantic undertones.

“Caroline Ouellette and Julie Chu, who were on-ice rivals for years and former captains of the Canadian and U.S. women's hockey teams, celebrated the birth of their first child last week.”

Q36: The relationships you write, what kind of power-dynamics do they tend to have?

A36: In a romantic pairing, one character is 100% smitten and the other is not. (Unfortunately, I experienced this quite a bit before I met someone who was equally into me as I am in them. I guess this trope is a bit of a loose tooth for me that I like to wiggle from time to time.) By the end of the story, though, this pairing is over.

Edit: This comic was originally made with Hozier’s ‘Nina Cried Power’ lyrics, which I didn’t realize was a song very specific to the Civil Rights movement. In retrospect, overlaying a comic of white lgbtq characters with these lyrics wasn’t a tactful decision. 

I’ve changed the lyrics to Hozier’s ‘ From Eden’ now, and I want to ask you guys to reblog this version instead. Thank you!

@the-wip-project‘s Q24: Have you ever read a thing in a book or seen in a show/movie where you thought: “Oh, this is good, I’m gonna steal that!” What was it?

A24: Hmm ... really rethinking how I am inspired by others writing. Am I actually stealing? The answer is yes, I guess! Will now be more honest with myself when I “steal” an idea.

Throwback to all these Jesus comics I drew in 2012…
