Author’s name: PepperCat at AO3.
Fandoms you write for: Just the Rogues.
Where you post: AO3.
Most popular one-shot: My first one - “They fill you with the faults they had/And add some extra, just for you.” in which we see what Hartley was doing during episode 10 of season 1. (I suppose I might get a different reaction if I started dividing kudos by number of days a fic had been up, but I do not have the wherewithal to do that at this point in time.)
Most popular multi-chapter story: Again, my first one - “I Came Here For You”, in which Len and Hartley rob his parents. (Hartley’s parents, to be clear. I mean, that could probably be inferred.)
Favourite story you wrote: Right now, it’s a three-way split between the fluffy low-stakes AU of “I’m Not Gay But My Boyfriend Is”, the anxiousness of “Though you try to drown him I can hear him singing.” and the grimness of “The Madness of Cuckoos”.
Story you were most nervous to post: “Don’t you want to take a ride with me?”
How do you choose your titles? There’s a lot of swearing, honestly. I mean a lot. Usually I aim for a mangled quote of something, but occasionally I just pick elements from the work and it works out– “Whiskey, Puppy, and the no-eared dog” us my favourite of those.
Do you outline? Only if I feel like bits of the story aren’t clear in my head. (This happens a lot with dialogue, by the way.)
How many of your stories are…
…complete? 38.5 of them, in that “Before, During, After” should have actually been a collection, not a multi-chapter fic. Everything currently written in that one is complete, but there’s another thing I want to do.
…in progress? 0.5, see above.
…coming soon: *sobs*
Do you accept prompts? Nope. I am chronically contrary about writing instructions, so I suspect nobody would be happy with the result, and I have so much I want to get out on my own anyway.
Upcoming story you are most excited to write: The no-powers crime AU, the Axel and Shawna fic, at least two Lisa and Hartley fics (one with Ray Palmer!), a handful of more-scenes-than-fics things, the one with Hartley and Coffee, at least two more about Axel’s backstory, that thing with the handcuffs, and also the explosion-free distraction…
Hi. Can you tell I’m vapour-locked about this.
