I can't argue with this, I'm someone who would love to stay home, cuddle up on the couch with a good book

“how to recognize AI in fanfic” — hey so this is another not-gentle reminder that AI stole from us. it’s using OUR words and OUR sentences and OUR styles.

writing “long” paragraphs is not a sign of AI — it’s a common narrative choice many writers make both in fanfiction and in traditionally published novels, and AI stole it from us.

using an em dash is not a sign of AI. it’s a stylistic sentence choice that’s been an option in place of commas and semicolons for a very long time, and AI stole it from us.

long sentence structures are not a sign of AI, but are yet another stylistic choice writers often make to create a cadence and tone that mimics the flow of poetry, and AI stole it from us.

“YA narrative breaks”? i don’t even know what the fuck this means, but i can guarantee that AI stole it from us.

italics are once again a stylistic choice that many writers love to use to create emphasis, and it’s a more stylistically acceptable and traditional form of emphasis than bold or underline text. oh, and just to be extra clear: AI STOLE IT FROM US.

stop creating fandom witch hunts over AI when you know fuck all about what it means to sit and write a story, and to spend hours fiddling with sentence structure and dialogue to get the exact right tone. writers will stop writing out of fear that their work “sounds like AI” — IT DOESNT! AI STOLE FROM US! AI SOUNDS LIKE US! — and after a while, all that will be available on AO3 is shitty AI-generated fanfiction.

because yeah, people are going to continue to use AI to write fanfiction whether you “call them out” or not. but making a laughable thread on X that uses asinine criteria is not going to fix that problem. it will just push the real writers out because people will accuse them of using AI when they haven’t, and they will (rightfully) stop writing for spaces that attack them.

anyway. fuck ai.

Little Update!

Hey Everyone!

I just wanted to do a little update after some thinking with one of my oc's, and it's Athena. I've changed the face claim for her after thinking over a few things with Natasha, I came to the conclusion that I'll be changing the face claim from Natasha to Kate Beckett from Castle

⪼ Hey! I'm Alise (she/her/hers) I'm someone who loves to write fanfiction on my Wattpad account, but a big thing to know is I'm someone who loves reading and writing my fanfiction on anything of my favorite fandoms with my OC's (original characters)

(divider from @uzmacchiato )

Big things to know about me: » My main fandoms are the MCU and Criminal Minds » My favorite music artists are Taylor Swift (I know, basic) and Alex Warren » For those who might ask what my favorite T.S. Era is, it's reputation » I do make edits for fun (probably won't ever post them on here) » I have ADHD, so I can hyperfixate on anything for a while (hence why I write about my favorite fandoms and my OC's)

A mood board to get to know me better:

OC Redesign Cherry Bomb

Cherry Bomb won the vote on who I should redesign next! So here is her completed redesign/ref sheet! I have now put her on ArtFight! I ended up taking a small break on working on this for a few days due to not getting much sleep. But I finished it yesterday and I really happy with how it turned out!

I actually had to redraw this a few times cause I kept accidently leaving the symmetry tool on and drawing all over my finished line art.

Anyways here are her old designs from 2024

Small fun fact: Cherry Bomb was named by one of my family members!

I feel personally attacked...
