Vale Stew ;_;

[alias_sqbr]

No, this isn't a Night Vale reference: I spent lots of energy this morning putting a stew on the boil and then several hours later noticed the power cord had somehow gotten dislodged so I'm going to have to throw it all out :( :(

While I was out I bought a robot doll for TOTALLY GROWN UP ARTIST REASONS.

The Reverse Big Bang has started posting at dragonagebb! I drew a femslashy Isabel and Leliana picture and got two very fun femslash caper stories in return, which is exactly what I was hoping would happen.

And now an AO3 meme I stole from owlmoose (not the hitcount one)

I'm going to do it overall and then compare for fic, since I can see them being different and, well, I'm bored.

I love me some romantic fic I do :) But drawing kisses is hard. I like to think that if I had more canon f/f to work with I'd create more femslash.

The "other" works are a romance with a non binary gendered character and someone failing to seduce an asexual...and some miscategorised multi from before they introduced that tag, oops *edits*

Fandoms:
Dragon Age: Origins (30) 21%
Mass Effect (22) 16%
Dragon Age - All Media Types (20)
Homestuck (13)
Avatar: The Last Airbender (9)
Dragon Age II (5)
Glitch (Video Game) (3)
Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen (3)
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (3)
Magical Diary (2)

So that's 43% Bioware games, and about 50% video games in general. For fanfic it's similar except that Mass Effect beats Dragon Age.

Characters:
Leliana (12)
Isabela (Dragon Age) (8)
Female Shepard (Mass Effect) (7)
Female Hawke (7)
Female Brosca (7)
Morrigan (Dragon Age) (7)
Morrigan (7)
Male Amell (6)
Zevran Arainai (6)
Fenris (Dragon Age) (5)

For fic, top is Female Shepard, and fourth is EDI who I adore but have never drawn because ROBOTS ARE HARD.

Notice that they are ALL Bioware characters, and mostly Dragon Age.

Relationships:
Leliana/Morrigan (5)
Shepard/Tali'Zorah nar Rayya (3)
Female Shepard/Samantha Traynor (3)
Shepard/Liara T'Soni (2)
Bethany Hawke/Leliana (2)
Fenris/Female Hawke/Isabela (2)
Fenris/Isabela (2)
Kaidan Alenko/Female Shepard (2)
Zevran Arainai/Male Warden (2)
Male Amell/Zevran Arainai/Morrigan (2)

This annoyingly only includes relationships involving the characters above and so ignores the four EDI/Joker fics I've written.

So that's a little under half each of art and fic plus a few games and podfic. And about 2/3 of the art is comics.

If you got this far: congratulations! Hope you found it interesting :)

That doll is ADORABUBBLE!

Isn't she though?

Interesting that it didn't get the Joker/EDI fics. Also interesting to see the differences for fic and art. I wonder if I'd see distinctly different patterns for different fandoms.

[alias_sqbr]

I definitely would! Even aside from the relative lack of femslashy pairings to work with, I find myself inspired to write quite different stories in Mass Effect compared to Dragon Age let alone, say, Pride and Prejudice.
