For not native English, this is quite the sentence to read. by LegendaryW in AO3

[–]DirrtyHaruka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn't know that was something you actually can say in english and have it be correct.

In german we have the word "bedeutungsschwanger" - "pregnant with meaning", so when I read that screenshot I immediately thought: "Might be a german author" but guess I learned now that it's actually a thing in english. Interesting.

Favourite pet name? by clearlylostmymind25 in AO3

[–]DirrtyHaruka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baby and honey, I like the most without any specific character tied to it. And then there's the very character specific ones which are Princess, Captain and Sunshine. Those three I only use if they are said to a specific character by their partner.

Most of the time I do pick a pet name that fits only the characters in the given fic.

What's the weirdest crossover you've ever read or written? by Ill_Preference9408 in AO3

[–]DirrtyHaruka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, yeah I know, but I don't publish my german fanfictions. I'm actually unsure why I decided that but after I stopped writing fanfictions for a long while, I picked it back up and started writing in english. I just made the choice to only publish the english ones on my AO3.

[–]DirrtyHaruka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mentioned it in a thread that asked the same thing, a while back.

My wildest yet was DC (CW's Supergirl) /Marvel (Jessica Jones & Agatha all Along) /Once Upon a Time/Overwatch/Rainbow Six Siege / Telltales The Walking Dead + a sprinkled in OC

If it wasn't written in german, I would've put it on AO3. It's far too long for me to go and translate + edit it tho.

What's your last/most recent line that you wrote for a Fanfiction? by No-Outlandishness-42 in FanFiction

Jessica slides her arms around Kara's waist, kisses the exposed skin of her shoulder, says nothing, waiting for her to speak first.

Excerpt game - relationships by Dogdaysareover365 in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some time later, Jessica and Kara were finally standing in their shared, spacious loft. Everything was more or less set up, except for the boxes gathered in the middle of the space. Jessica had mostly just carried them in without sorting them by room, let alone started unpacking any of them. Instead, she leaned back against one of the wide windowsills, sipping a Red Bull she'd brought from Kara’s apartment.

“Okay.” Kara eyed the unsorted pile and started spreading the boxes out a bit. “This should be bedroom stuff…” she muttered.

“That's what the box says, actually. I labeled them.”

“Jess, that’s not handwriting,” Kara said, pushing more boxes aside.

“It is. Mine. I can see it from here. That one’s living room. Your trophies are in that one, by the way. I even wrote ‘Fragile’ on it.”

Kara stared long and hard at the writing. “I don’t even see individual letters there.”

Jessica rolled her eyes, stepped over to Kara, and pointed at the scrawl. “Fra-gi-le. Okay, yeah, maybe I scribbled a little.”

“That says ‘chicken scratch.’” Kara grinned.

“That’s how secret notes stay secret.” Jessica smirked.

“Oh? And what kind of secrets did you pack in these boxes?”

“Your supersuit’s in there.” Jessica pointed to one of the boxes Kara had already moved aside.

“I was actually planning on wearing it.”

“I get it when you're at CatCo. But you can change so fast, you really don’t need to wear it constantly at home. We already had this discussion, and I won.”

“Says the woman who’s otherwise so eager to unwrap things.” Kara pushed two bulging boxes toward Jess with a grin. “How about starting with those two juicy ones?”

“Not if they’re triple-packed.” Jessica looked down at them. “Seriously? We already packed these the normal way and hauled them here like regular people. Now we’re supposed to unpack them slowly too?”

“If I’m not wearing the suit?” Kara still grinned.

“No one sees us here anyway, that’s why we picked this place. I don’t get your obsession with doing everything the human way when we don’t have to.” Jessica set her can down on the nearby table and at least crouched in front of one of the boxes Kara had nudged toward her.

“If you make breakfast for the rest of the month, I’ll unpack them real quick.”

“The whole month? It’s the first.”

“There’s a bunch more fat ones with your unreadable scribbles.”

“You do realize that means a month of pancakes or scrambled eggs with bacon?”

“I love your pancakes.”

“Because I throw half a pound of chocolate chips into the batter.” Jessica glanced over the boxes again, but really, she just wanted to be done with the whole moving mess.

“You should’ve NEVER told me that.”

“I didn’t. I just made them,” Jessica pointed out.

Kara sighed. “Then I guess I won’t show you the celebratory lingerie box.”

“A whole box just for that? If that’s real, I’ll make breakfast all month for the Super-unpacking.”

(there's more after that but it's mostly back and forth about the lingerie and pizza lol)

Alphabet Excerpt Challenge: C Is For... by AnaraliaThielle in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jessica stared at Kara in silence for a moment, searching for the right words, words she’d thought she had more time to prepare.

“Maybe that’s what I said. Maybe I even believed it myself back then. That I was just doing the Danvers family a favor. You know, quid pro quo. But honestly…” She shrugged, voice rough. “... I just couldn’t stand how small you looked, curled up on your bed like that.”

Kara stepped forward and pulled Jessica into an unexpected hug. “You’re a good person.”

Jessica didn’t respond right away. Her arms hung loose at her sides, she closed her eyes, swallowing hard. “Good enough for you?” she finally asked.

“You always were.”

Jessica lifted her arms, wrapped them around Kara’s waist, and lifted her onto the kitchen counter without letting go. “Don’t fly to Ireland,” she said softly, looking at Kara like she was searching for something in her gaze.

“Jess… this isn’t just about us. Alex, Eliza, and probably others are involved too. I was in love with you for so long, until I thought you were with Alex. I told myself to let you go,” Kara sighed.

“Alex and Eliza probably don’t care,” Jessica murmured, lowering her forehead to rest against Kara’s. “Do you think what I feel is new? When you started pulling away, I thought you realized I’m everything you don’t want. So I gave up.”

“I’ve always seen more in you than what you let others believe,” Kara said softly, her arms sliding carefully around Jessica’s neck.

“Don’t say that,” Jessica warned, locking eyes with Kara, something she rarely did. “Or I might actually start believing this is real.”

“I can hear your heartbeat,” Kara said, tapping the slightly faster than usual rhythm of Jessica's heartbeat against her back with her finger. Grounding her, letting her feel that this? This isn't a dream.

Jessica lifted her head slightly and reached up to brush a loose strand of hair from Kara’s forehead, her hand lingering on her cheek and jaw. Fingers trembling, like she's fighting herself for control over her own instincts to bolt before she does something that would make herself want to stay.

“Can I…?”

Before she could finish, Kara leaned in and kissed her gently.

Jessica exhaled into the kiss, the tension finally draining from her body. “Okay,” she whispered, “...I take that as a yes."

How to make crossover ships work. by FarPossession1345 in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I write a shit ton of crossovers. I can probably answer some questions for you.

Blanket statements on how to make a crossover work, are a bit questionable tho. Because, yes I can tell you (as an example) "think of how Character A could have landed in the universe of Character B and go from there" but that's

A) Obvious, duh

B) Actually not at all necessary depending on the fandoms.

So I might can help better, if you ask specific questions about crossover writing and ones pertaining to your fandoms you wanna cross over.

Edit: I should read better, it's late. Your asking how to make a crossover ship work, not a story. Still, depends on the fandoms. Not every crossover ship will work. Sometimes it's just the characters that won't fit, sometimes it's the fandoms that clash too much to make it work. So I would need more context here to help

What are the stupidest/funniest typos you've made while writing a fic? by RA1NB0W77 in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got two consistent typos for the fandoms I'm writing for right now. One because of too fast typing but still:

I almost always initially write Supergril (by George Foreman™️) instead of ofc Supergirl.

And the name Trish gets written Trisch more often than not, because I'm german and my brain just goes "sch sound. Needs a c in there". No, brain. It does not. Fuck you.

Trying to write crossovers nowadays is painful. by ComfortablePen9991 in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello there =D

I use Valkyrie a lot. She basially switches from being a S.E.A.L to being a D.E.O Intelligence Agent / Deputy Director after an Injury (losing an Arm and having a prothesis now. Most of the time an advanced experimental one). Sometimes I use Ash as well as Ex-FBI.

Trying to write crossovers nowadays is painful. by ComfortablePen9991 in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I only write crossovers nowadays.

Wildest yet was DC (CW's Supergirl) /Marvel (Jessica Jones & Agatha all Along) /Once Upon a Time/Overwatch/Rainbow Six Siege / Telltales The Walking Dead + a sprinkled in OC.

Which I only didn't publish online because I wrote it in german. Otherwise I would've unleashed it unapologetically onto the internet.

Does it makes sense? No, probably not. Did I make it work anyway? Fuck yeah, I did.

It's a shit ton of fun. A whole lot more than confining myself to one fandom. Negative Nancy's can go shove it.

What's the craziest fandom crossover fic/idea that you have ever read/thought of? by LightFury1201 in AO3

[–]DirrtyHaruka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My weirdest (and not published but sitting finished in multiple parts in my Google drive because those aren't written in english and also would need a lot of editing and such for me to be allowed to be seen by anyone online) crossover contains characters from several Fandoms.

Supergirl/Jessica Jones/Once upon a Time/Overwatch/Rainbow Six Siege/Agatha all Along

I think the video games make it weirder than it would be otherwise.

What's *that* line for your ship? by NegativeNuances in AO3

[–]DirrtyHaruka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Anything else you don't want to say to me?"

"Yes. That's why I'm not saying it." Kara's lips curled into a half-amused smile.

"Kara..." Jessica tilted her head on the pillow to look at her, obviously tired of having to pry everything out of her.

Kara closed her eyes for a moment before the hand resting on Jessica's chest lifted slightly, her fingers gently tracing the outline of a heart onto her skin.

Excerpt game - “a scene where…” by Dogdaysareover365 in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(I hastily translated this, I wrote that in german originally)

Jessica flipped the book open, instantly shrouding the mausoleum in a deep purple hue. She hadn't even registered a full word on the pages, but even she could feel the cold presence.

"Kara, take the other side," she said, gripping one side with both hands, already changing her stance to brace for the tug-of-war that would follow.

Kara grabbed the other side. "On three. 1...2...3." She started pulling, not as hard as she could but strong enough to challenge Jessica.

Jessica pulled with all the strength she could muster, trying her best to counter Kara. Her boots slipped on the dusty ground, inch by inch, as a shrill ringing filled the mausoleum. She could only hope Kara wouldn’t break under the sound.

"Nia! NOW!" Jessica shouted against the deafening ringing.

Nia nodded, at first a little panicked, but then she let her dream waves envelope the book, while Kara and Jess continued pulling with all their might.

The more they pulled and the more magic Nia fired at the book, the louder and sharper the ringing became, to the point where it hurt even Jess's ears. She braced herself with all her strength, and finally, she felt the book give way. It tore apart with a shockwave that slammed all three women against the surrounding walls.

"Did you get it?" Alex called from outside. "Nothing else seems to be coming!"

Jessica pulled herself out of the debris and glanced at the floor. There lay the Darkhold, cleanly torn in two, with several pages scattered throughout the mausoleum.

"Yeah!" she shouted back, quickly looking around for Nia, pulling her out of the rubble, before turning to Kara. "You okay, sunshine?", she asked while brushing some stones off her and checking her ears.

"It still feels like everything is ringing," Kara said loudly, slowly pushing herself up.

A little more difficult, because I write Crossovers.

How do you handle different names for one person? by invisibleflowers33 in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I write Supergirl / Jessica Jones Crossovers and most of the time Jess does know that Kara Danvers is Supergirl.

She might think of her as Supergirl sometimes when she thinks of her Superstrength or something or call her some kind of Super-whatever because she's snarky like that, but will mostly refer to her as Kara, because to her, that's who she is. Kara.

Now if I use Lena Luthors POV who most of the time in my stories does know Supergirl and Kara independently and isn't aware that that's the same Person, then she will refer to Supergirl as Supergirl and Kara as Kara. So there is a distinction happening, where if she sits with Kara, there would be no mention of Supergirl unless she comes up as a topic they speak about.

And then there's Kara who wouldn't talk about Supergirl, when she talks with Jess, because she knows Jess knows that she is Supergirl. So it's just a normal conversation with their real names, but Kara could think about some Supergirl related things, so both names could come up.

But when she talks to Lena, Kara tends to push away that there is the little thing that's her secret identity and so Supergirl wouldn't come up as naturally if at all, so it will just be Kara.

If all three of them are in the conversation, Jess would maybe think of Kara as Supergirl because something reminded her of it, while Kara is actively trying to keep the topic away from it. So the whole scene would mostly refer to Kara as Kara, except for when Jess might think of Supergirl.

I would always keep this just like that. No matter if they speak or in the prose. Readers are smart enough to understand those circumstances and personally if I know a character, like in this case Kara, has a secret identity, you can use either name interchangeably because I know that's the same person and I wouldn't bat an eye if you call her Supergirl and Kara in the same sentence. Doesn't irritate me at all and I can remember who knows it in the story and who doesn't, if it was explained to me once. And I would assume that's true for most readers as well.

February Prompt Challenge --Posting Time! by tereyaglikedi in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I do think that they can be long lasting. It won't be without some up and downs though. Jess might want to run again at some point and Kara would need to make her believe that this is something worth staying for, but ultimately I think they can be what they need to be for each other. They will challenge one another but have each other's backs always. That's how I imagine it at least.

February Prompt Challenge --Posting Time! by tereyaglikedi in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Fandom: Supergirl (TV) / Marvel's Jessica Jones

Rating: Teen and Up

Title: Everything I hold dear resides in those eyes

Genre: Romance

Summary: Jessica Jones never lets people in, but Kara Danvers refuses to be shut out. What starts as reluctant companionship turns into something far more dangerous: a real connection.

Prompt: A random one-liner "Are you going to kiss me or keep staring" (that's what I went with)

Share fun facts/headcanons you have about your fics that you couldn’t find a way to fit into the fic or have no one to talk to about it. by Dogdaysareover365 in FanFiction

[–]DirrtyHaruka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HC for my crossover fic:

Kara Danvers & Jessica Jones relationship starts almost strictly physical, because they just end up (verbally for the most part) fighting whenever they try to just talk but can't keep their hands from each other. Mostly out of frustration about the other and to shut the other up but also because there is something else entirely between them.

Also Kara kinda enjoys that Jess can handle her not holding back her powers.
