gee! i sure do love this complex female character with COMPLEX thoughts and COMPLEX feelings and COMPLEX reasons for her actions. surely the fandom wont villainize her and make her into a irredeemable monster for doing something even slightly unkind! (male character has done something a 100x worse.) looks at social media oh! well surely they wont water down her character into a single trait and/or only examine her at surface level and then proceed to misunderstand her entire personality, motives, and values! looks at social media again oh.

Idk who made that comment but that’s so wild to me?? because aside from the obvious (that it’s a really rude thing to say) I’ve always thought your writing showed a very strong understanding and appreciation of the characters. you ARE goated fr i’m sorry they said that

I APPRECIATE IT im not trying to compliment fish or anything especially since thats the only remotely negative comment ive gotten out of so so many positive ones but it's just like .... so weird to me. they left comments like that on every chapter that were backhanded at best and it's just so odd. if you didn't like it you didn't have to comment on it and if you did like it there's surely nicer things to say ??? idk. weird as hell

ive been soooo busy with work as of late hence the lack of updates yet again and im in the process of getting another job but hi popping on here to say . if youre going to comment on a fic maybe dont make your comments something like "this character seems ooc but i guess you had to make some changes to make the ship work"

Some names just sound so ridiculously fake that had they been fictional, people would’ve rolled their eyes in complete disbelief. Like seriously. Wdym there’s a mf called Galileo Galilei. Stfu. You just made that up

the em dash calls to me like the green goblin mask whenever I’m writing a fic

how it feels thinking about two characters who are so intertwined with each other losing them feels like they lost a part of themselves

not to be like "my echo chamber is more normal than your echo chamber" but it is kinda crazy stepping outside of tumblr into any other internet space where it's not like, highly frowned upon to post pictures of people online without their consent

let it be clear i am going to bat for this terrible horrible no good terrifying rotten icicle of a woman like no one has ever gone to bat for a fictional woman before. this is reparations for every single mid ass morally gray man who got woobified because he was sad once. woman you suck so bad. i can see the toxic grief eating at you from the inside, core to rind. i see the terror and obsession behind your ruthlessness. carol holiday i would kill for you and you would probably try to find some use for that which is great and precisely why i love you

In theory, maybe I get the “we’re all just playing with barbies, they’re fictional characters, no interpretation is incorrect because it’s an interpretation” argument. But actually no, not all takes are equally valid. Framing something as an interpretation doesn’t mean it inherently has merit. Some takes are completely incorrect and betray a fundamental misunderstanding of the source material. They just aren’t a reason to harass people or send death threats

[r4spberry-vinaigrette]

yeah sure i'll post this. human dyle be upon ye

[r4spberry-vinaigrette]

While I appreciate that there seems to be more aro appreciation/awareness happening online, this is kinda how it feels when you're aro in fandom tbh

If ANY of yall EVER do this shit to me, im deleting every single fic out of spite.

If I ever catch one of yall doing this to another author and I know youre a follower of my work I will block you personally on every platform

None of yall are the fic police. I DESPISE genai. I think its an insult to art, humanity, and the planet itself. But aint not a single fucking person here qualified to pick apart a strangers fic looking for a gotcha moment to make yourselves feel superior. If you think something is ai you can ask the author (most are proud of the ai use and will just tell you straight up) if they say yes you have your answer and can warn people. If they say no and you dont believe them you block and quietly keep it between you and maybe a close group of friends. Spreading misinformation is DANGEROUS. And NONE of you doing this shit are anywhere near qualified to do it.

THIS GOES DOUBLY FOR ARTISTS.

@arteestofcats

first rule of being a rare pair shipper is find a freak or three who can be convinced to enjoy the rare pair as much as you do. second rule is feed each other's insanity

There’s something very nice about remembering fics you read years ago. Maybe you remember the plot perfectly, maybe the rest of the fic is only a blur aside from a handful of vivid scenes, but you remember the way it made you feel. And sometimes you dredge up the memory - the premise or a favourite scene or a few lines that stayed with you -  and your heart aches a little bit, the way it does when you think about books you enjoyed as a child.

To all the fanfiction writers out there: your work is beautiful and meaningful and it leaves an impact. I promise.
