Takeoff

I’M NEVER GOING TO CARE WHAT YOU DO IN ROLEPLAY.

you can torture, you can include gore, cannibalism, rape, you can have murder in your threads, you can include toxic dynamics, friendships, relationships, incest, you can include disturbing sexual fetishes, you can ship your teenage muse with an adult, you can not ship it and have it be a crush instead, you can include mental health issues, you can include racism, sexism, making fun of disabilities, you can include social issues, you can take baby Judith, and throw her out of a window. you can portray Carl as a sociopath who really wants to kill his father? I’ll just be like… huh, i disagree, and move on.

I don’t care. I’m never going to care. It’s fictional. 

shokcingly enough, fiction and roleplay are places where can explore issues that are disturbing, that are  —  difficult to comprehend, that make us uncomfortable. I have read books published and put on shelves that involve torture scenes and particular murders that I have found… so upsetting. I remember one, in COMPANY OF LIARS by Karen Maitland, where an apprentice boy was murdered, and… I was so upset I couldn’t even focus on my college work for days. I remember reading underage rape in… A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE. y’know, that book series that most of us believe is on of the best series of literally all time? and yeah… people even ship the couple involved. 

i’m never gonna’ mind what you do in your roleplay, because i know that writing a fiction is not enforcing a moral. and to think so, and to start to order people around and berate them and gang up on them according to a real life moral, is utilizing a highground that no one actually disagrees with to make you feel happy about bullying. 

even things that i find disturbing or disagree with? you can write them. you can explore them. it’s not gonna’ effect me. however, i know it can effect some people. of course content can be disturbing and, in those instances, you need to do whatever makes you comfortable. you need to avoid it, make sure it’s tagged properly. & content creators, as in, ourselves, should make sure we make that clear for people. because they have the rite to avoid things that upset them. they do not have the rite to silence things that upset them. 

you don’t have to apologize for your blog or your content. ever.

“You know I love you, right? I have every intention of fucking you like I don’t.” (N e ways)

“Mm? Y’er drunk...aren’t you?” Tony slurred out a little, eyeing his father skeptically. He himself was rather wasted, or he may have responded with more volatility. The genius smirked up at the elder Stark as he slouched back against the couch. “But I have t’ say ‘s nice to hear you love me...” he muttered quietly, glancing off to the side.

You mean kinda like Shayera and Katar Hol from DC?

imagine dating an immortal and finding a photo album of their exes who all sort of look like you dating back a century

What if the exes were all previous incarnations of you and the immortal’s been dating all of them in the hopes of getting you to remember your first life when you originally met them

The Three Laws of Fandom

If you wish to take part in any fandom, you need to accept and respect these three laws.

If you aren’t able to do that, then you need to realise that your actions are making fandom unsafe for creators. That you are stifling creativity.

Like vaccination, fandom only works if everyone respects these rules. Creators need to be free to make their fanart, fanfics and all other content without fear of being harassed or concern-trolled for their creative choices, no matter whether you happen to like that content or not.

The First Law of Fandom

Don’t Like; Don’t Read (DL;DR)

It is up to you what you see online. It is not anyone else’s place to tell you what you should or should not consume in terms of content; it is not up to anyone else to police the internet so that you do not see things you do not like. At the same time, it is not up to YOU to police fandom to protect yourself or anyone else, real or hypothetical.

There are tools out there to help protect you if you have triggers or squicks. Learn to use them, and to take care of your own mental health. If you are consuming fan-made content and you find that you are disliking it - STOP.

The Second Law of Fandom

Your Kink Is Not My Kink (YKINMK)

Simply put, this means that everyone likes different things. It’s not up to you to determine what creators are allowed to create. It’s not up to you to police fandom. 

If you don’t like something, you can post meta about it or create contrarian content yourself, seek to convert other fans to your way of thinking.  

But you have no right to say to any creator “I do not like this, therefore you should not create it. Nobody should like this. It should not exist.”

It’s not up to you to decide what other people are allowed to like or not like, to create or not to create. That’s censorship. Don’t do it.

The Third Law of Fandom

Ship And Let Ship (SALS)

Much (though not all) fandom is about shipping. There are as many possible ships as there are fans, maybe more. You may have an OTP (One True Pairing), you may have a NOTP, that pairing that makes you want to barf at the very thought of its existence.

It’s not up to you to police ships or to determine what other people are allowed to ship. Just because you find that one particular ship problematic or disgusting, does not mean that other people are not allowed to explore its possibilities in their fanworks.

You are free to create contrarian content, to write meta about why a particular ship is repulsive, to discuss it endlessly on your private blog with like-minded persons.

It is not appropriate to harass creators about their ships, it is not appropriate to demand they do not create any more fanworks about those ships, or that they create fanwork only in a manner that you deem appropriate.

These three laws add up to the following:

You are not paying for fanworks content, and you have no rights to it other than to choose to consume it, or not consume it. If you do choose to consume it, do not then attack the creator if it wasn’t to your taste. That’s the height of bad manners.

Be courteous in fandom. It makes the whole experience better for all of us.

“Well, considering you’re never around, I guess you just don’t see how great of a kid I was.”

Wow, you’re old. How was it owning a pet dinosaur?

“His name was Rex and he was the best kid I ever had.”

Tony cursed quietly, shaking his head as he activated the suit. 

[Text] How?

It was all he could manage. How could the kid be so reckless? Anthony flew out of the base, heading as fast he could to New York, muttering to himself along the way. He had to admit, it wasn’t completely the kid’s fault, and maybe this wasn’t such a bad thing.

[Text] Hey, underoos, I’m on the roof.
