Anonymous asked: hi! hope this doesn't come off as pressure-y, im not at all trying to be like that, but how about long does it usually take you to respond to a (headcanon? request? headcanon request? idk what to call it) ask? i ask bc i worried that it got eaten but im also,,,rlly rlly shy lol. (i hope you're having a good day!)

Hey, anon, don’t worry about it!  And as far as the average time to finish an ask…um, this isn’t going to be the answer you want to hear, but it varies.  Everything from how busy my life in the wider world is to how many asks I have to how well my brain box is treating me that day can delay finishing an ask.  Fic prompts that I don’t have inspiration for can linger in my inbox for weeks or months until I feel sufficiently interested in it, or I might never feel sufficiently interested.  Even stuff I want to write can sit idle for a long time depending on my mental state–some days I just don’t have the spoons to…like…think and interact with the world.  I try to answer actual personal asks (people looking for advice, etc) as soon as possible, based on how urgent the ask seems to be and/or how strongly I feel about the situation–I think the fastest I ever answered a personal ask was this one BDSM situation.

  • Now, regarding the headcanon asks, I’ve still got seven (…possibly eight?) left, but I’ve also been pretty busy.  The headcanon asks can take twenty minutes or two hours to actually write up, so I might have just not gotten to yours yet!  Here’s a list of the characters I’ve still got to complete, so you can see if your ask is here:
    • Allura from Voltron
    • One of the Berenson brothers (it’s gonna be Jake) from Animorphs
    • Furiosa from Mad Max
    • Rey or Phasma from Star Wars
    • Brenneth from Alleirat
    • Hellboy (this..wasn’t actually a headcanon ask but it’s Happening)
    • Corlath and Harry’s kids from The Blue Sword
    • Breq and/or Seivarden from Imperial Radch

    If your request isn’t here, it probably got eaten.

    And on that subject, I’m tired and in pain so I’m gonna write some headcanons to make myself feel better.  Peace.
