Snowflake Challenge 2023: Challenge #12

Challenge #12

In your own space, set yourself some goals for the coming year.

• I want to write something for my alt. AO3 account (i.e. problematic™ smut). I have like half-a-dozen reasonably detailed outlines already but this is the year I'll start turning those into proper fics I swear…!

• I've got a headcanon that Rosalina is aplatonic so I wanna write a fic about it! I wanna at least find a good story idea, because I don’t want it to be Aplatonicism 101 (I don’t like reading fics with queer headcanons that just sound like they're reading through a wiki) but I don’t have any other ideas for aplatonic joy yet…

• I've been in the planning stages of a project where I go through all the fics tagged with Kamek's name on AO3 and read every single one so I can categorize them based on if he's actually a character in them or if you could just replace him with a magic wand taped to a block of wood and call it a day. There's a bit less than 300 fics in there right now, which feels doable. There will be an AO3 collection and probably also a spreadsheet. I will probably suffer massive amounts of psychic damage because I'm not taking fic quality into account. It'll be fun! At least I wrote some of them, so that's…9 fics I don’t have to worry about? (^.^;)7

• Similarly, I want to at least start planning a project where I replay one of my favorite games (Paper Mario: the Origami King) and record myself talking about it! Kind of like the Let's Plays of old, except I'm not charismatic enough for that, lmao. I just wanna talk about all the cool things and trivia about a game I like. I have to actually play it for a second time though first, so maybe that's the true goal for this year…

• I got comfortable with making icons last year, so this year I wanna venture into making GIFs. I have all the tools, I just gotta sit down and learn, really.

• Finally, I…need to get back into Ring Fit Adventure OTL I gotta finish the story mode at least — I don't even think I got halfway through! I need to be exercising more, anyways.
