too many normal people joining fandoms because of covid really set us back as society

[halestrom]

okay now I'm curious and I dunno if this is really such an archaic foreign thing to young people today or if I'm just out of touch

Please reblog, I'd love to see a lot of responses!

Rip Current

(Tides part 3) (Part 1/ Part 2)

Crown princess by blood, the deadliest of the sirens was known for her unearthly beauty and thirst for the hunt. The joy she derived from killing resulted in the unprecedented abdication of the crown -- and therefore royal responsibilities -- to the current king. Following the relinquishment she was often seen leading packs of her fellows in vicious attacks and triumphant celebrations, leaving the inter-kingdom chinwagging, entertaining, and glad-handling to the confidante who took on her mantle. The ancestral circlet and dull meetings were a price she gladly paid for the freedom to pursue the joy of the open water and smell of human fear.

While the newly turned prince consort was getting acquainted with his aquatic body, husband, and kingdom, the former ruler happily overpowered his human friend. The loyal companion naively believed that vengeance was owed for the brutal "death" of his peer, practically throwing himself into the water and proceeding to slash and tear into any limb within his reach prior to being overpowered. While the attack proved futile, the princess could always appreciate loyalty and a fierce spirit; regardless of species. Such an essence would have been wasted in death, and perhaps the human-turned-king would benefit from a familiar face.

Also to be clear if you put the new Harry Potter show on my dashboard I will be unfollowing and probably blocking you. JK Rowling is responsible for the death and pain of too many trans people to count in my country and I cannot tolerate her new way of trying to gain cultural and financial power in any way shape or form.

It really is crazy how if you mention you write fanfiction with people outside fandom, they're always like "you should change the names and try to sell it." It misses the point (fun), but more importantly to me, I get slightly (and I know irrationally) insulted on a craft level. Excuse me, my fanfic is entwined with the canon, thank you very much. I wish sometimes less entwined. You wouldn't believe the stupid bullshit some of my fics have to include because of canon.

I think we as a society should bring back brotps. I think we should be weirder about characters being friends the same way people are weird about ships. Make those two characters who interacted once or twice besties. Make it difficult for them to get rid of each other even if they want to. Go nuts

It will get cold again eventually. The summer will not last forever. I’m not doomed to live in this unbearable heat for all eternity. <- said while gripping the countertop so hard that the tile is starting to crack

[halestrom]

it’s been said before and it will be said again but i’m begging you all nicely to restrain yourselves from being so casually aggressive and rude and obnoxious in the tags & reblogs of a complete stranger’s posts. no one wants to know that you hate [tv show that op giffed]. no one wants to know that you hate [character that op drew]. no one wants to hear you being ugly and negative for no reason. say what you want to say in your own post. don’t hit the reblog button. blacklist relevant tags. unfollow or block relevant accounts. log out. shut down. get help.
