Fandom is so different now and it’s becoming un-fun with how quickly shit moves.

I just want to enjoy things. I don’t want to have to play a game of Artist-Race that seems to be afoot lately.

Ya’ll eat up fandoms, leave artists and writers bone dry and then move on so fucking quickly then fucking wonder where all the Good Fandom Stuff is.

Idk Maybe cherish some things for longer. Reblog stuff. Interact with people. Comment and share.

Fandom is Capitalism now and I’m not being nuanced.

Reminders for fanfic writers who think it “doesn’t count”

✦ Your writing counts. like, a lot. If someone felt something because of what you wrote, then it matters. That scene you almost didn’t post? Yeah. Believe me, someone out there bookmarked it for a reason.

✦ Writing existing characters doesn’t make it “less than.” You’re building arcs, crafting dialogue, emotion, pacing. You’re studying character psychology like a scientist. That’s not “just fanfic,” that’s storytelling.

✦ “but it’s just fanfic” ...no. STOP, it’s craft. It’s understanding tone. It’s hitting emotional beats. It’s layering theme and backstory and prose into something people feel. You’re doing the work, you just don’t get graded on it. (Which, honestly is a blessing.)

✦ Writing fanfic means you love stories enough to live inside them. You care, deeply. You care enough to reimagine, to explore, to add something of yourself to a world you didn’t create and somehow still make it feel brand new.

✦ Someone out there rereads your fic like it’s their favorite book. Maybe they’ve saved a line to their notes app,or they quote it to a friend. Maybe they just think about it when they’re having a bad day. That little fic you almost deleted, it’s comfort now.

✦ Your comments section is real. Every “I needed this” and “this made me cry in a good way” is proof, you don’t need a book deal to matter. You don’t need a publisher to have an impact, because you already do.

FANFIC IS WRITING! Fanfic is yours.

You’re not “just” anything. You’re a writer, own it. Be proud of that.

At their five-year reunion, old friendships rekindled over laughter and drinks, but beneath the light-hearted nostalgia, unspoken feelings lingered. When Kaminari, tipsy and uninhibited, joked that everyone thought Midoriya and Todoroki would end up together, the words struck a chord neither of them could ignore. Later, left alone in the quiet hum of the party, Todoroki finally asked the question that had lingered between them for years—had Midoriya liked him too?

A powerful rainstorm swept through the coastal village of Musutafu, leaving destruction and chaos in its wake. Amidst the aftermath, a small mysterious figure lay face-down in the courtyard of the Midoriya family. The winged boy possessed an otherworldly presence, his magnificent red and white wings spanning wide, and his similarly dual-coloured hair shimmering like a celestial flame. Where did he come from? What was he? And, more importantly, what did his presence mean?

Writers when it's time to write the story no one forced them to come up with in the first place 🙄

Bakugou's Super Secret Support Engineer is finished! I feel like I just posted it, and now it's already done. 🤧 If you haven't already, please consider giving it a shot!

It's a hard fic for me to describe. It's basically a story about love, sexuality, and self-acceptance disguised as an Izuku Support Course AU, lol. I kind of wrote it as an outlet for my own feelings about being demisexual.

For those who dislike Bakugou, his character development here is quite a bit different than in canon, so perhaps you'll like him? Idk. It's hard for me to say. Regardless, he's not the main character, despite his name being in the title. The focus is heavily tododeku with some kiribaku happening in the background.

Fair warning, it gets faaaiirly smutty in the later chapters. If you decide to read it, I hope you'll enjoy it! 🙇‍♀️
