questions for an author

i was tagged by the talented @shallow-gravy (thank u!!!!)

Name: Lila

Top 5 Fandoms Written: oh wow i WISH i’d written for 5 fandoms.  but really it’s just red dead, a tiny dash of the last of us, and i’d like to get into the vampire the masquerade fandom.  maybe fallout new vegas.

Top 5 Fandoms You Want To Write For/More: i guess i already sorta answered this above.  but three more fandoms i’d like to write for... hm.  From Dusk Till Dawn, for sure.  Twin Peaks would be fun to write for, but i have no idea how i’d even go about that, tbh.  & i’d love to write for the mafia franchise.

Stories You Wish More People Knew About: fanfic or original fic?  well, for fanfic, anything i have bookmarked on ao3 is something i loved and wish everyone would read.  for original fic, i just read this short story for class called “The Third and Final Continent” by Jhumpa Lahiri, and yeah, it’s pretty famous but also it’s just so good i want everyone in the world to experience it.  i also loved “Night Road” which is a Choice of Games interactive fic about a courier vampire so yeah.  I still haven’t shut up about that one.

Ship(s) Written The Most: Arthur Morgan and my oc Constance!  My only ship I’ve written in years.  Uh... did used to write Bella/Edward. ngl.  but i’m not proud of it ok.

Character(s) Written The Most: Arthur lol.

How Many OCs Do You Have: a million!  but only a few have seen the light of day and they all exist in memories of the west.

How Many Series Do You Have: just memories, right now.

What Do You Do With Fics You’re No Longer Interested In?: cry and stare at them longingly and stare at all the moodboards i made for them to try and revive my love.

Coming Soon: eventually more memories of the west.  i’m also trying to write a few vtm things.

Line From A WIP:

I sleep in the red neon light of the hotel sign.  When I was a kid, Grandma put up curtains to keep the light out, but the dark frightened me.  In the dark, thoughts of the devil are likely to run rampant.  So I never close those curtains.  Better to see the devil coming.

Grandma’s certain he’s around every corner - and after all, she picked the most likely city for that to be true. 

Do You Accept Prompts?: uh yeah!!! that would be cool as hell if someone asked me to write a prompt awww

How Do You Feel About Kudos?: ajdklajdlakjdkajal they’re the best

Do You Read Fic As Well?: DUH!!!  there are so many talented folks in my favorite fandoms.  i’m so lucky to get to read their stuff honestly :’)

i’m tagging @electriicfleur and @alwaysupatnight and @odddragon and whoever else would like to participate :)

when did i create this blog: 2019?  I think

what do i post: writing stuffs, cool art other super talented ppl have made, gifs of my current fixations usually

last thing googled: what the name of the hello my baby hello my honey frog was - he doesn’t have a name, i guess :(

other blogs: i don’t have any others!  well, I think I made one years ago but i don’t even remember the name of it

do i get asks: very occasionally but i love it when i do!  they’re fun!

why i chose my url: um well tiesthatbind is my ao3 name.  i wish i didn’t have to add the 1899 on the end, but tiesthatbind was taken.  so 1899 is from red dead.  idk where tiesthatbind came from.  i just like that phrase.

following: i have no clue :/  i don’t look - but a lot probably

followers: again - i don’t know - but a few probably haha

average hours of sleep: 6 on weekdays and like 11 on weekends lmao

lucky number: as long as it’s an even number, it’s lucky for me.  i hate odd numbers!!!!!

instruments: uhh dabbled in violin, flute, and piano.  but can’t play anything well.  i can play amazing grace on the piano and that’s about it.

what am i wearing: flannel pj bottoms and a tank top.  gotta keep my body temp regulated.  like my arms to be chilled and my legs to be warm - balanced, as all things should be

dream job: video game story writer?? is that a job title specifically? just a  writer???  librarian?? it’s all over the place.  i want a job i’m happy with and have free time with.

dream trip: out west in America.  And Argentina.  Anywhere in Europe, too.  Anywhere, actually.  My answer is anywhere.  The bar is low.

favorite food: bar is low once again - anything.  my favorite thing ever though is probably steak.

nationality: American

favorite song: i’m really loving “Daydream” by Wallace Collection which is like a super 60′s song that reminds me of creepy cults

last book read: last book read and finished? The Shining by Stephen King.  last book that I just picked up and read a few pages? The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson - I’m in a spooky mood.

top three fictional universes i’d like to live in: Jeez man all the fictional universes i love, i would definitely get killed in - like RDR2′s universe?  I would die instantly.  I guess... if we’re talking universes I could survive in that would be Animal Crossing bc you can’t die.  Maybe Star Wars, but like a peaceful planet... or like Coruscant bc even though I probably couldn’t survive, it’s a cool planet.  I like the noir aspects of the lower levels.  And i’d like to live in Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines universe for like a few nights and then i’d be out there too.

It was so cool to read everyone else’s responses to these.  I’m not gonna tag twenty people, but i encourage anyone who wants to do it, do it!  and i’m specifically tagging @electriicfleur, @alwaysupatnight, @reddeaddufus, @bayek-of-sivva, @odddragon if y’all haven’t already done this!
