some of yall have never read an abandoned fanfic that stopped on a cliff hanger and it really shows

[kamuwrites]

Fanfiction, specifically AU fanfiction which focuses on retelling the same story in a different setting, under different constraints, or with a twist, is actually a cultural successor to the ancient bardic tradition of taking long-loved and long-told stories and retelling them with a personal flourish. Through the practice of adding details to unexplored scenes, bringing a specific character to the forefront and constructing sequels, the content-creating fandom that is keeping the ‘epics’ alive through transformative works is reflective and hereditary to the human need to preserve the stories which are dear to us and connect with them on a personal level.

Maybe the gayest reaction I’ve ever had to something was when I was like 14 and reading ‘Twilight’ for the first time, and when Bella first said she was in love with Edward I was like, “what the fuck. Since when? He’s your friend.” I legit thought she was interested in him out of like,,,,,,, professional curiosity smh

i have a question! as of now, do teenagers and young women still wear hanfu? i know there’s a hanfu revival movement going on, but is it normal to see people wear hanfu or hanfu influenced clothes walking around the street?

Hi, thanks for the question!

I answered part of your question in my reply here, so please check it out! To answer your specific question - yes, because of the hanfu revival movement, more and more teenagers and young women/men are wearing hanfu. I wouldn’t say it’s currently “normal” to see people wearing hanfu or hanfu-influenced clothes walking around the street, but it’s definitely becoming more common and accepted, compared to before. I have a compilation of hanfu street fashion photos in my post here.

Here are some more examples:

It’s not just women - men are in on the trend too!

For more photos/resources, please check out my hanfu movement and street style tags. Hope this helps!

vampires don't need to bathe because they can't sweat or anything but they absolutely get dirty from running through the woods all day. so whenever that happens carlisle lines all the kids up outside and absolutely blasts the shit out of them with the pressure washer like he's trying to get mud off a car

anybody else a fan of these rlly niche oneshot fics that r simultaneously a little moody and angsty while being exceptionally tender and sexy. they’re always like 20k words and absolutely nothing happens plot wise except feelings stuff. and they always have a title (like this)

hahahahaha, i can’t stop thinking about a hypothetical film adaptation of midnight sun where poor 30-something year old man rpattz once again has to don the hair gel and body glitter and play an immortal high schooler, but now that he’s been in, like, damsel and the lighthouse, he absolutely CANNOT and WILL NOT dial down his terrifying manic energy and fathomless eyes

and meanwhile kstew is there, but 100% in her current style of sideways baseball caps and short bleached blonde hair and, like, old man bowling shirts that shouldn’t look cool but do (i’m bad at describing fashion), barely paying attention to poor twitching, hysterical edward while she charms the pants off anna kendrick in the lunch line or whatever

the impossibly cyan filter will, obviously, remain. rpattz will wrestle so many deer.
