Interviews With Mcyt Fanfic Writers

12. Ethoslab189/Seth189

Thanks to Pearlescentmoon12335 for interviewing me! For those of you who don't know, I roleplay as Etho on my alt account Ethoslab189 and I didn't know how to interview myself...so Pearl helped, shoutouts to them. And here's the little paragraph they wrote, I hope you enjoy :D

Ethoslab189 is a roleplayer on here who's known for their main account, Seth189. They're incredibly good at writing and have an impressive number of books. Like mate, gimme your secret. How do you do it?!

Also, they're really nice.

Question 1: How'd you stumble across mcyt and start writing? In 5th grade, I saw my sister watching LDShadowlady's Base Invaders and we spent the entire day watching up until her latest Fun Craft episode. I kept watching her Fun Craft, XLife, and soon Empires. I wasn't a huge fan but I'd watch her from time to time. The summer of 7th grade I got bored and rewatched her Empires. I wanted to see what really happened with the demon and found Scott. In one episode he mentioned Flower Husbands and I searched it up, soon finding fanfiction and the life series.

Question 2: Do you ever think of doing something else? Maybe writing original stories or maybe even stepping away from Wattpad and moving on with your life? I can't write original stories to save my life. Well...I mean I am working on one but very much am not. It's kinda just on the workbench buried under other stuff. And yea I have thought abt quitting before but I don't think I ever actually will. Maybe tho

Question 3: If you're comfortable with it, would you mind telling me a bit about your home life? Do you enjoy time with your family or is it hard? And do they know about your Wattpad life? My parents do know about my Wattpad life. My dad is more open and okay with it, my sister has an account and always checks in on me, and my mom likes to read my writing and try and understand mcyts. I think overall my family is super kind and funny and extremely supportive. Especially with my sister being gay. And I know they'd always be by my side.

Question 4: Do you share the fact that you're on Wattpad in your life, such as at school, or do you keep it under wraps? I have a sticker on my laptop that says 'Seth! Your fellow Flower Husbands enthusiast.' I wear a lot of merch hoodies and stuff so most people know. One person actually asked what Flower Husbands was and I gladly educated them and got them addicted to my fanfics XD

Question 5: Any plans for the future with your writing? Maybe any upcoming stories? ...yesnt. The Fire You Light My Heart With was the big reveal that I've been holding back. Besides that, everything else is posted. I mean, my notes app keeps getting bigger and bigger as I get more ideas for stories.
Oh! There is actually a Watcher story that I've been working on a bit tho.

Question 6: Are there any big mistakes that you regret in your life or anything you wish you can go back and change? Probably me in fourth grade going through body shamming and everything like that. I'm still really upset that I got hit that hard with the reality of life at the age of 9. I hated myself so badly and it was the worst state I've ever been in. But I'm glad I made it out of there, despite it being so hard. And it's helped me grow self confidence and believe that I can get through anything.

Question 7: Are you facing any big struggles in your life right now? You don't have to share any specifics if you do not feel comfortable with it. No. Mostly just trying to be alive more. Be more active with my friends. As much as I love spending an afternoon listening to music and laying on my floor while writing fanfic, my friends have pointed out that I'm not really supportive towards them.

Question 8: Why did you choose to roleplay as Etho in the MCYT gang? Uhh- mostly because AJ was like 'SOMEONE NEEDS TO ROLEPLAY AS ETHO' and so I did. I personally don't like to see myself as Etho or like the Etho that people put in their stories. I know some roleplayers will see that the character they roleplay as is mentioned in a story and they're like 'oh! It's me!' or something and I find that annoying bc even though you roleplay as them, you're not them. So pros and cons.

Alright guys, let me know of someone you want me to interview next, I'm good with an artist or writer
