eve becomes SNAKE -- or snake becomes EVE. whichever way ROUND, she is FREER. hell follows her ‘round, hell called MAN, hell called ADAM, trying to make the CHANGING about him. adam demands of god why he is being PUNISHED like this. eve finds GRACE in the dark cracks between rocks. eve finds god in the SOLITUDE. eve finds ABSOLUTION in the red press of her knees / scales into the dirt. eve, UNBLINKING, watches adam rail. adam demands ANSWERS and eve / snake / eve exits the GARDEN to go and find them for HERSELF.

Anonymous:  I adore your kate so much, too bad there aren't many dusk lovers in the rpc community!

ahhh this is sweet, thank you for taking the time to send this !   and i do agree, i wish the fandom was a bit more active,  but honestly i can’t complain because there’s no fandom drama when there’s only like three people in the fandom, LOL.

Anonymous: This is unrelated to Kate but I remember you made a Latina oc and I was super hyped for her, would you ever consider bringing her back and adjusting her or no? Sorry to bother!

omg !!   i’m so happy you even remember her. adriana at chismepro, right?  i think she’s the most recent mexican oc i brought to tumblr.   yeah, i’d totally consider bringing her back !    i’d just need to find a non-problematic fc first…. and also find the muse for her. she’s still around somewhere, i’ve just been more focused on kate (as she’s been my main muse for the past year) and rosie (cause she comes so easily to me & always puts me in a good mood) !

Anonymous: I don't know if you've heard or seen around, but a lot of people who joined this fandom found it gross because of the shipping factors such as sethkate / richiekate,which you, I believe you participate in these ships. Some rpers left because of this, how do you feel about this?

             agegap ships are not everyone’s cup of tea !   and there’s no problem with that.  people will ship what they want. nobody has to like it or view the content. as long as the relationships are handled respectfully and are well developed and no one is sacrificing characterization just to be able to write a owo ship, yeah, i ship kichie & sethkate. however, it’s stated in my rules that i don’t expect to write these ships with people. i fully expect to develop individual relationships with each characterization, as there’s no two identical portrayals and it’d be unfair to treat them as such. so if other people ship these things, i let them come to me so that they don’t feel pressured.

              it kind of comes with the territory of fandoms, though, that people are going to come in with pre-conceived ships.  i’m not really sure who exactly you’re talking about, cause people have been pretty open about what they do/don’t ship as long as i’ve been in the fandom, but if they left because people were forceshipping or godmodding then that’s really sad.  idk what more to say about the matter, though, cause as far as i know i haven’t been around anyone who’s experienced this.   but yeah, basically, people are allowed to ship/not ship whatever they want. in my opinion sethkate/kichie isn’t problematic if it’s handled correctly, which i do. 

Anonymous: Given the dusk fandom is so small, would you ever considered moving on for Kate? Would you move onto new fandoms or continue writing her? It probably seems like a stupid inquiry because you're so attached to her and you're the only Kate Fuller I've seen.

             Mm, if I ever lost muse for her, I’d stop writing her.  I’ve dabbled in writing for other fandoms before but big ones make me really nervous, so I don’t think i’d ever make a blog for something like marvel or the walking dead (but I don’t mind having verses for them). Kate is a character who’s very very dear to me, and I have no intention in retiring her anytime soon.

Anonymous: would you ever write both the geckos with kate?

         i’m not exactly sure what you mean by this tbh !   i actually write ships with both richies and seths when they’re around/active,  so i guess the answer is yes ?   if you mean as an ot3, then sort of: i do ship her with both of them romantically, and i think with the right rpers we could figure something out. geckocest isnt something i’m interested in writing/witnessing, though —- and neither is kate.  so if i was comfortable enough to write los tres geckos as an ot3, it’d have to be kate-centric. if that makes sense.  idk how to explain this properly so here’s a sort of explanation for the ot3 the way i ship it:

     kate  x  seth :    romantic

     kate  x  richie :    romantic

     seth  x  richie :    platonic

            and again,  it’d have to be with rpers i’m very comfortable with and trust.

Anonymous: what's kate's clothing style like? has it changed or grown post-amaru? does she have any restrictions on what she would never wear?

                 i’ve talked about this a little bit before, but it was a long time ago and i don’t think a lot of people saw it !    so ,  here we go again.    when she was still living in the clothes she regularly wore in the series, they were all very modest and plain.  this is because her parents bought her clothes for her and she didn’t have much say in what she owned.  once she’s on her own and independent, she starts to explore fashion a little bit more and begins to learn how to dress in a way she not only finds flattering on herself, but that makes her happy and that she feels comfortable in.  the first time she wears a short skirt, she feels totally powerful !   when she wears tight jeans ,   she feels sexy, and good about herself and her body !    she wears shorts that are shorter than knee-length and suddenly feels like she’s discovered her own legs for the First Time !    she steals fancy panties and bras from a victoria’s secret and feels a million times more confident when she wears them !    she wears clothes she actually wants to wear as a form of self-expression, and as a way to feel like her body is hers again after her possession.

               things she likes includes (but is not limited to) denim shorts, skater-style skirts that are soft and flowy, tank tops, comfortable sundresses, soft sweaters, and form-fitting but comfortable jeans.

               there’s not a whole lot that she’s adamantly against wearing. but she does prefer to keep things somewhat modest, you won’t really see her wearing shorts that are scandalously short, extremely lowcut tops, or very tight dresses. anything like that —- it’s just not what she’s comfortable in.  she’s also really not a fan of leather, partially because amaru was so fond of it, so the texture of it against her body makes her skin crawl.

Anonymous: does kate ever find out about kyle? if she did find out, how would she feel about it? ( his death & the fact carlos killed him )

          in season 2, kate goes back to bethel.   she does contact jessica, which means she probably was still on good terms with most of the people in town.   i imagine she found out that kyle died while she was there,  it’s likely someone expressed their condolences.   she didn’t cry until she was alone. even if kyle wasn’t exactly what she was looking for, he was a good person and she loved him.  he deserved better than an early death.  when she does pray, which isn’t often anymore,  she asks god to take care of him.   

           if she knew it was carlos that killed kyle, frankly, she wouldn’t have been as surprised when he shot her. she’d have been extremely angry —- and, of course, heartbroken. she blames herself for him getting caught up in the messiness that was the culebras and the twister.  she regrets ever getting involved with him, because if she hadn’t asked him to come get her, he would still be alive, and probably would’ve taken over her father’s job as pastor. 

Anonymous: what are kate's hobbies or interests? have they changed post-amaru? what are some things that kate enjoys even if they don't have any practical use?

        before amaru/the twister/mexico,  kate was actually fairly good at volleyball.  she’d been planning to take a scholarship that had been offered to her and play in college, where she planned to study nursing.  she also enjoyed journaling, and kept a diary that she really suspected scott kept close tabs on.   after amaru, she doesn’t care for journaling.  she doesn’t even know where she’d start.  there’s just too much, too many feelings to get out —-  and she doesn’t like the thought that the geckos could access it so easily if they wanted,  and gain way too much insight (and realize that she’s really not as okay as she pretends to be).  she does draw, though, poorly. her pen scratches through pages of motel bibles like a blade. she throws them in the garbage when they leave each motel.

         something she likes despite lacking practicality is nail polish. every week or so her nails are a new color.  she also steals magazines, books if she can. she never keeps them for too long, but it makes her feel like a normal girl again for the short time she has them. 

Anonymous: what's kate's morning routine? does she have any skincare routines or habits? what kind of products does she prefer to use?

       she doesn’t usually sleep well.   it’s a side effect of xibalba, the nightmares that plague her when night falls.   she wakes the next morning and it looks like she’s  been  bruised ,   dark purple circles beneath green eyes.   she washes her face with water in a vain attempt to bring a little life to her face.  a spray bottle of rosewater she keeps in her purse has helped a bit to reinvigorate her skin.  she also has a face wash, pink grapefruit scented, and an eye cream (for the dark circles) that she stole from a grocery store.  she hasn’t seen too many results, but it makes her feel like she’s taking care of herself, anyway.   her favorite products are ones that smell nice, frankly.  other than that she doesn’t really have a preference.
