Who would enjoy reading a potentially crappy poem that would absolutely be a spoiler to my original story? Or, at the very least, who would want to read a poem that my classmates have told me is too narrative? Because I have written a poem that has so many interpretations even without knowing the story behind the poem's background and it is beautiful.
For those who want to know the context, I've written a blurb below.
For context, this is right after the protagonist's power develops, and she unalives her father on her sixteenth birthday. This reaction scene hasn't been written in any capacity. I just imagined how she would react to it and... boom, peom.
Note that this gives me permission to infodump back. Fair exchange.
Reblog this if you encourage/really want people (especially but not just moots) to infodump in your inbox and dms

I love writing one story, going to another story--which is inevitably in the middle of a scene with an entirely different vibe--and bouncing between the two like a ping pong ball until my brain settles on a third, completely unrelated story.
Happy STS, Night!
What’s a trope or tropes you like writing, even if some people think it’s cheesy?
Thanks!
You know, that's the first time someone went and called me Night here and it makes me happy for very little reason :>
Honestly, I don't know if I play into any tropes in my writing. I don't play into them, I guess. Or I don't realize that I am. But I guess after thinking on it, there are potential tropes.
If Stars of the Sky goes the way I initially thought, it would be enemies to lovers, if it goes differently, there would probably be friends to lovers. There's potential soul mates (Because I am random) and I wanted to make Eros and Hades have more to their abilities than the obvious one can tell when death is nearby to people and the other can make people get together. So there's that. But even that might be done interestingly due to how the Named are granted their abilities.
I dunno, there might be things that I write that fall within tropes without me knowing. (Though honestly, if we look only at fanfiction, if killing the mc was a trope, I do it a ton)
(am i making this in the hopes of settling the debate as to whether i'm a catboy or a dogboy? perhaps)
You know what... I wanna do this. I just lack people who would ask me things. *reblogs anyway*

“Those poor boys”
“She deserves to be punished too.”
“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”
“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”
“She put herself in harm’s way”
“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”
“She ruined their lives.”
