Alright, to ao3's soon to be arriving Wattpad Refugees, a basic guide to general user culture:

1.) Unlike Wattpads vote system that let's you like each chapter, the ao3 equivalent kudos only allows one per work. Everyone is generally quietly annoyed about this. To engage with each chapter, you're heavily encouraged to comment. Trust me, it makes people's day.

2.) Ao3 has no algorithm. By default it's latest updated work first. You can find things to your taste through searches, filters and tags.

3.) 'No archive warnings apply' and 'user has chosen not to use archive warnings' mean two very different things. No archives warnings means the work is free from any content that could require a warning tag (character death, graphic depictions of violence, non-con, etc). User has chosen not to use archive warnings means it could contain any of the warning content, be it hasn't been explicitly tagged. Treat it like an allergen. No archive warnings apply is allergen free. User has chosen not to use archive warnings, may contain traces or whole chunks of the allergen. If you're likely to have a bad reaction, maybe don't take the risk.

4.) Speaking of warnings, ao3 has very few restrictions on the type of work that's allowed. Whatever your personal thoughts or feelings on that are, thats how the site is. You're likely to run across some dark subject matters and a lot of people are uncomfortable with reading that. You're well within your rights not like these works and have your opinion on whether they should be allowed, but harassing the authors of such works (or any works) is more likely to come back on you than them. Ao3 operates on a strong policy of 'don't like, don't read'. Use the tagging system to your full advantage to only engage with the kind of works you want to see.

We look forward to welcoming you all and seeing the fantastic works you create. Happy writing!

Hello! I hope you’re having a wonderful day!!

Thank you! I hope you are as well! :]

If you don't judge people for saying "sorry adhd brain" in public, then don't judge people for saying "sorry schizophrenia brain" in public

If you correct people when they misuse the term "ocd" then you need to correct people when they misuse the terms "psychotic", "delusional", "hallucinating" and "schizophrenic"

If you don't stare, laugh at or fear a stranger in public flapping their hands, then you need to do the same for a stranger in public talking to someone who isn't actually there.

If you give a trigger warning to sensitive topics then you need to give a trigger warning to unreality and false information as a prank.

If you want to normalize medication like antidepressants you also need to normalize medications like antipsychotics.

If you don't like people without your disorder joking about it online and report it as harassment, then you need to do the same for the tons of nonschizophrenics making "schizoposting" memes to make fun of us.

Just please include schizo-spec and psychotic acceptance into your mental illness/neurodiversity acceptance. We are part of your community whether you like it or not. We are constantly stigmatized, misrepresented and made fun of. We do what we can to help you, please return the favor.

Mental illness/neurodiversity acceptance is an ongoing action. We will get nowhere in the long run if we split the community into the "in" group and the "out" group. We could all accomplish so much if we worked together. But you need to include the "weird" people that don't fit into your aesthetic and don't fit the social norms.

Us psychotics and schizo-specs have been struggling for years and have been the only people fighting for ourselves while the people we plead to barely see us as human. If you are nonpsychotic and nonschizo-spec, you can help us more than you realize. Please include us and stick up for us the same way we have been including and sticking up for you.

Delacroix’s horror: Part 1

Silence filled the air. No longer was the night peaceful, and no longer could she be alone.

“I thought I told you to leave.”

The girl simply smiled.

“Leave for what?”

“You shouldn’t be here.”

“Why?”

Why should you leave? It wasn’t right, nothing was. Nothing was right anymore.

“Well, answer me. Why do you want me to leave?” Was I not enough?

Just leave me alone. You aren’t real. Why are you here? “You should be dead. You aren’t real. Leave.”

The girl seemed amused at this. Girl. She was one. What is she now? She isn’t here now. She’s not real.

“I’m very real, Del. You know this. You know everything! You want me to stay, you want me here.” She’s a trick.

No, I don’t. This is the worst time possible to be here.

Delacroix let out muffled sobs against her hands, covering her face with her hands. Leave. She just wanted time alone. Time to herself. To think about what happened. To process her feelings and the grief of her sister. But no time was ever there for me. Life was never on our side.

“Please. I’m worried, you haven’t eaten since Monday, and you’re always in your room.”

Shut up.

The girl was next to her now, sitting on the damp grass and entangling a hand through the other. A small hand. She was always undersized for her age. Yet, her hand would feel nicely against Delacroix’s palm, and she would leave it there. It gave her warmth and comfort. Warmth from her natural body heat, comfort from her presence and reassurance that ‘yes, I have you’ and ‘yes, I’m never leaving your side.’ Don’t trust her.

“Isn’t that what we promised? We would never leave each other, right? Why are you afraid of me? Why won’t you answer?!” Her voice was high-pitched and whiny. Childish. I’m scared. Don’t go.

Delcroix blinked her eye, letting her lashes pick up any tears that boarded against it. Slowly, she went to turn her head towards her sister. Same as before.

Her eye was large and curious, her diamond pupil sparkling within the moonlight. Her hair, still in her signature double buns, along with her bangs curled inwards. Yet, instead of its usual fluffy texture, her hair looked crunchy and burnt. Some parts were darker than others, and a piece of her left bun was burned off completely. Her face. Her face. Sprinkled with blood. Blood, bruises, burns. There was a constant stream of blood rolling down the sides of her face, dripping onto her clothes and onto the grass beneath us. Light eyebags seemed to weigh at the edges of her eye as well. Visible from the moonlight and stream of tears that dried on her skin.

“I’m scared, Del. I’m worried about you.” Always have. Why don’t you listen?

“I know. I’m scared too.”

“Why don’t we do something about it? Let me help you, please.” Don’t listen. Stay alone.

What else can I do? Don’t listen.

Delacroix stared into the moonlight in silence, and Tiara soon after. Tiara. Such a pretty name. Don’tlisten

Seconds turned into minutes, and minutes turned into an hour. Tiara was getting impatient, but this was normal. She never had much power to stray Delacroix from moon watching. Her fascination with the moon came naturally. A bit too naturally, if you asked her. “Well?” Delacroix stood still, a frown stitched to her face. Stayalone.

The stars twinkled their beauty, but they were moving. Slowly moving along the sky.

“Delacroix.” Her voice was stern. Her eyebrow furrowed against her eye. She was impatient. Far more than she wanted. But this was taking too long. DON’T LISTEN.

“I’m not going crazy, am I?”

Tiara laughed at Delacroix’s question. No venom was laced into it, but there was something off. Maybe it was the hoarseness working against her voice, and the fact that pain stretched across her face afterward.

“Of course you aren’t! You know how stable you are. How good you are at handling your emotions! What can ever make you crazy?”

“You’re dead, yet I’m talking to you. A-and that's only because you were always there for me when I was breaking down.” STAY ALONE.

“Well, I’m here now. It’s normal for people grieving to see ghosts. After all, you’re grieving! You miss me, I miss you.” DON’TLISTEN.

“I miss you too.”

“Then let me stay.”

It was a small whisper. Her voice clung to the hope she had left. Maybe I’m not crazy. Is this as normal as us breathing? Why haven’t I heard of it before? Delacroix thought about her sister’s offer. Weighing the pros and cons, the consequences that she’ll have to endure. Seconds turned into a minute, and a minute turned into another hour.

The sun was slowly rising along the horizon. Yellow gradually mixed in with dark blue, creating a red-orange color. It was beautiful how the stars were their own dots within the sky. All of them minding their business, and staying away from the light.

“Alright.” Stay safe.

— End of “Delacroix’s horror: Part 1” —

AN: Sooo, there's this. I know that this is one part right now, but I'm planning on making others. Do be warned, the parts will NOT be in order, they'll be made when I have a new idea to write about. If I make enough, I'll eventually make a master list from beginning to end. Hope everyone has a good day/night!

Don't look up

I actually have a different account on another platform as well, so you may see this twice, anways ... 🐍 I hope you enjoy

Run.

That was all you could do.

Run.

Sticks, twigs, and leaves crumbled under your feet. Every step you took was a new clue, a pathway to your demise. Owls twisted their head and watched, squirrels chattered at you and ran. Bugs crawling up their trees or jumping away. Each new sound burned into your brain, echoing until a new one replaced the last.

An echoing scream surrounded the forest, but you could care less. Decoys. It was a dirty move, used against you often. Each new scream once caused you to scan your surrounding. But that was the past. These screams weren't new, you've heard them before, and you'll hear them again.

Owls hooted, squirrels chatted, and bugs jumped.

Whipping around a tree, you flattened yourself against it, Your breath was staggered, greedily breathing in as much air as you could. Walls were compressing your chest, your rib cage squeezing your organs, feeling a few sizes too small.

No, don't stop. Get up, start running, you aren't safe. Your adrenaline is still there, use it!

The thick trunk of the tree was jagged and rough against your body, emitting a small sense of warmth against the frigid air encasing your body. Scanning your surroundings, you dashed between the trees, hoping that it would just turn 2 already. Laughter spread throughout the trees, followed by another high-pitched scream.

Owls hooted, and bugs jumped.

A harsh snap was made above you, and you froze. Every breath you took did more pain than relief. Every time you darted your eyes from one space to the next, dizziness and nausea would cloud your view and thoughts.

"Don't look up, or you'll regret it."
