15. What repeated themes do you see running through your work?
Romance and dragons. Usually with a lot of tragedy thrown in.
16. How do you support your themes? How do you make sure your language reflects them, and how do you decide whether something belongs in the plot or the theme category?
I don't. See, I like letting the story tell itself. The story decides all these things. I'm a conduit for the story.
... Okay, I'm making that bunch of bullshit up, but, well, yes. It's the story that decides. And ya know? I've never been good at theme vs plot. Let smarter people than me decide.

15 – Warnings – What do you feel it most important to warn for, and what's the strangest thing you've warned for in a fic?
I have warned for a lot of things. But the big ones: Sex, Suicide, Torture, Rape. Sometimes, I can't warn for individual things, so I'll do a general "There are bad guys doing very bad guy things, be warned" because if I do specific warnings, then I give away some of the plot.
Strangest thing? Fluffy and Muffy. They were AU versions of Victor Creed (Fluffy) and Jubilation Lee (Muffy). So so so AU, and so DERPY because of it.
16 – Summaries – Do you like them or hate them? How do you come up with them, if you use them?
I generally only use them like on websites, or if I'm feeling formal. Since I post most of my fanfiction on my personal journal, and never here, most people know the fandoms/characters I write in. Plus, sometimes, I'm just laaaaaaaazy
