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.

This idea came to me when I woke up first thing this morning.

Q33: What kind of gestures are your characters often using?
A33: Dragging their hand through their hair to push it off their face, shrugs, eye rolls, putting their hands in their pockets to make fists during tense moments.
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!
The “hay is for horses” call back is from a cockney poem based on the alphabet but not the traditional “A is for Apple”. My dad, who was from London, England used to recite it to me whenever I said “hey” or “eh” (yes, I am Canadian).
My memory recalls the poem as follows:
Hay is for horses (A)
Beef or mutton
Seaforth Islanders (C)
Differential
Heave a brick (E)
Effervescent (F)
… I think G for a Q (Guinea for a ? )
I will do a search later to find the rest.
awesome! the never ending joy of this fandom

Q42: What’s an an old idea that you’ve discarded?
A42: Ooh so many! I was going to make the main character the owner of a company that was bought out. After the “merger” she realizes her *life’s work* is being used for corporate greed and subsequently gets booted out of the company. Not unrealistic but has been done before. I won’t be using it in my current wip.
On day 12 of this challenge @the-wip-project gave us the prompt:
Unfortunately, things never go as planned around here.
Great prompt! I’m trying to finish the first draft of a particular wip which is an original work. It was interesting as the result of that prompt could fit in so many places in my wip!
