I’m falling asleep. Let’s do this real quick. Tagged by @smolkristen
The Rules: Post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Pick out the title that most intrigues you, or interests you and I’ll post a little snippet of it or tell you something about it!
I’ll stick to YOI ones, since adding my novel stuff would make for an ultra gigantic list.

Vitya Diaries
A Blueprint for Soulmates
A Lovely Day for Murder
Candy Saga
Hearts of Stone and Glass
Sad Christophes
Satin Sheets
Steampunk Fairytale
This Little Piggy (it’s actually DONE but not posted)
The Underdogs
+ all of the things for zines and secret NLA stuff that I can’t talk about
2: Where does your OC work? Nero works for Team Rocket as a torture specialist, which means that he lives in the underground base on Pokemorph Island. (Yes, I have ported him to other stories, but he’s always involved in organized crime because it’s so cushy).
3: What’s your OCs favorite food? Spaghetti and meatballs!
5: How old is your OC? I think he’s in his 30s.
7: Is your OC in a relationship? Nope. I don’t know that he’s capable of loving someone, and he’s not patient enough to deal with anyone for that long. He’d probably end up killing them.
8: What are some of your OCs strengths? He’s… physically strong. And really, uh… creative, I guess! And he has a great work ethic.
9: What are some of your OCs weaknesses? He’s prone to getting bored and you REALLY don’t want to be around him when he’s bored.
10: What is your OCs favorite outfit? He has a cheap italian suit that he likes to wear. Thinks it makes him look classy, but those blood stains are so hard to get out…
13: What is your OCs earliest memory? Learning how to beat the other dogs in the dog-fighting ring. His owners starved him, beat him, prodded him, and threw him in with other, bigger, meaner dos. And he survived. It’s a fond memory.
15: What makes your OC angry? Not much… he’s pretty calm most of the time, which is weird.
16: When is your OCs favorite time of year? Winter, I guess. Because then everywhere is cold.
18: What kind of underwear does your OC wear? Silk boxers.
22: Has your OC ever killed someone? Many, many times.
23: Whats your OCs biggest secret? Nero claims that he doesn’t have one. I’m not actually aware of any, either. He’s just kid of crazy. Simple crazy.
26: Is your OC a human or an animal? (or something else idk) Anthropomorphic houndoom. Furry doberman type. With horns.
33: Are your OCs parents dead? By now? Probably. They were just normal pokemon, after all.
34: Is your OC religious? Nope. Spiritual, maybe– he thinks that everything is exactly the way he wants it to be, even when bad things are happening to him. He figures if he can convince himself that he’s pleased with the turns of events that he’s still the one on top. Still the winner. STILL TOP DOG.
36: What turns your OC on? He’s a really sick puppy… :/ I think he really enjoys his job.
37: What was your OCs first word? Uhhh… probably something like “doom!”
38: Does your OC have any pets? Nope! Too much hassle.
39: Who is your OCs biggest enemy? People who don’t want him to kill his victims, I guess.
40: What is the craziest thing your OC has done? Oh gosh. Uh. Once he was supposed to “recondition” someone that the Team kidnapped… so Nero made him stay with him in his quarters. He gave the victim the top bunk and kept him in constant suspense on when he was going to hurt him again. Most of the time, Nero just played his violin…
41: What is your OCs motto about life? “You’re never disappointed if you want whatever you’re given.”
42: Does your OC drink coffee or tea? Coffee. Black.
43: Who is your OCs biggest hero? Koopa, aka the Second in Command (and then later, the leader), of Team Rocket… who was also once a torture specialist and really good at his job.
44: What color eyes does your OC have? Red.
45: Does your OC like reading? Sort of. He’s not very good at it, but he likes to have books around. He wants everyone to think that he’s REALLY TOUGH but ALSO really refined. Most people aren’t fooled at all.
46: Is your OC loyal? Nope. He’d sell out the team if he got a better offer… but it’s hard to beat “stay here in this safe, underground base where all of your food and boarding is taken care of, all you have to do is torture people we tell you to” along with the pay check.
49: What country was your OC born in? Johto.
51: What is your OCs favorite genre of music? Classical. Go figure.
52: How does your OC feel about insects? He likes to put them on people. :/
53: What is your OCs sexual orientation? I think he’s aromantic pansexual? I don’t think he has a preference, really.
54: Does your OC smoke? Cigars, yes!
56: What kind of clothes does your OC wear? He tries to dress “fancy,” which means his Team Rocket uniform, minus shirt, plus wife beater, plus tattered suit jacket.
58: Is your OC introverted or extroverted? Except for when he’s working, he is usually alone. He enjoys his solitary time. So introverted, I think.
59: What is the first thing that someone would notice about your OC? He has scars all over his muzzle. All over him, actually. It comes from a lifetime of fighting dirty.
60: Does your OC enjoy nature? Not really. He grew up in a junkyard and now lives underground. He probably wouldn’t know what to do if you dumped him in a forest somewhere. He’d be all ?? ? ?? ? ??? ?? ?? ?
5: How old is your OC? I think he would be classified as “mature adult.” .
7: Is your OC in a relationship? Nope! He is single.
9: What are some of your OCs weaknesses? He has some anger issues… and a very short/violent temper.
7: Is your OC in a relationship? Nope. Pavonine once had a partner in crime, but they are no longer friends.
13: What is your OCs earliest memory? Probably pledging allegiance to his queen with the other itty bitty hatchlings.
15: What makes your OC angry? Anyone questioning his intelligence, sanity, or plans. He’s very vain and does not put up with that crap.
7: Is your OC in a relationship? Oddly enough, no. Pav doesn’t have time for silly things like romance.
23: Whats your OCs biggest secret? His brain has pretty scrambled due to ghost poison, and he is pretty sure that it as ruined his chances of being king. It does not mean that he can’t overthrow the current monarchy, though…
35: How flexible is your OC? Pav keeps limber! He’s a warrior, after all!
37: What was your OCs first word? MAMMA
42: Does your OC drink coffee or tea? On occasion, though I think he prefers things like honey and wine.
7: Is your OC in a relationship? He’s starting to get irritated.
43: Who is your OCs biggest hero? King Sombra, apparently.
49: What country was your OC born in? The country that Changelings come from.
52: How does your OC feel about insects? INSECTS ARE LIFE. AT LEAST IF THEY ARE CHANGELINGS.
59: What is the first thing that someone would notice about your OC? He wears a crown and a robe, as if he were royalty and had any sort of authority. That is, when he’s not disguised as someone else in order to bite poor, innocent victims in alleyways to suck out their love. Yeah.
7: Is your OC in a relationship? You know what? Yes. Yes he is. In a relationship with REVENGE.

57: Would you call your OC adventurous?
58: Is your OC introverted or extroverted?
59: What is the first thing that someone would notice about your OC?
60: Does your OC enjoy nature?
Sort of. Probably. Though it was more of a SQUISH than a crush. Like “holy crap this person is amazing and the best and I just want to BE THEIR FRIEND FOREVER” thing. I have never wanted to, like, KISS a teacher or anything like that.
80) Are there any causes you strongly believe in?
Yeah? Yeah… but I haven’t been terribly good at being actively involved in anything. I donate to charities… and I try to recycle a lot… and not waste stuff… I guess I have more actual Opinions than doing anything useful. 😐
Hopefully I can change that some day. Just have to figure out a way to contribute that is really helpful. Probably donating lots of money some day to something. LIKE HOMELESS PETS. And adopting moRE ANIMALS. Or writing a book about an issue (like cancer!) and donating the proceeds to fund research! Spreading awareness?
72) Have you ever been in a physical fight?
No. Well, sort of no. I’ve slapped someone before (but they definitely deserved it), and I HAVE BEEN HURT BEFORE like a “friend” PUNCHED ME IN THE FACE ONCE and there were other times where I’ve been bullied and pushed around… but I am just not a fighter type. I am a pacifist.
UHMM… I get the most personal fulfilment/joy by being productive, specifically producing creative works. But happiness… idk, I really love chatting with my friends. When we can both be enjoying something and we know we’re being stupid and silly and laughing too much and geeking out… I just love that!
96) 3 physical features you get complimented on a lot?
Hm… my smile (I smile a lot even when I don’t want to), my rosy cheeks (which I hate), and my hair (when I actually feel like putting effort into it). I’m so awkward when it comes to physical things, though, so I’ll say my voice! I remember when I was working tech support, I had customers beg me to do their voicemail and system recordings for them (and a few jobs of mine actually did have me do the phone tree recording stuff). One even told me that I was wasting my time doing tech support and needed to be doing something with my voice! So flattering!
100) What are some words that you live by? Why?
“The way to get started is to stop talking and begin doing.” is my favorite Walt Disney quote. I think about it every day. ‘Cause it’s true, you can talk all you want, and research, and plan, and have the greatest intentions, but your dreams will never come true unless you put in the hard work and actually, you know, DO THE THING YOU WANT TO DO.
Also, Tiana is the best ever and I love her to bits and pieces just fyi.
My mom once made us teenage mutant ninja turtle costumes, so me and my three brothers got to be our favorite turtles and it was AWESOME because everyone was like “wait- but she’s a girl?” and my parents were like *shrug*
I should find a photo of it…
18) What do you do to get over your anger?
^^^ This.
When I get too mad, I have to go aggressively clean things. Dishes are the best. And while I am cleaning I can think it over and start to rationalize things and figure out strategies for effective communication.
39) Are you a competitive person?
Sort of? It’s not so much “I want to beat you!” or “I have to be the only winner!” though… I get competitive when people don’t think I can do something. Then it’s on. I don’t mind losing or tying or being 2nd, 3rd, 5th, etc… especially in things that ultimately don’t matter. I just can’t handle my personal character being criticized unreasonably. 😀
