Fic: When Night Comes Down 1/4

When Night Comes Down 1/4

"If you stand far enough outside the tapestry, you can see the many threads and paths unwalked. The points of change can be so tiny they go unnoticed at the time... though the ripples travel for centuries and more, into eternity. Yet, in the end, all paths lead to one path. There may be deviations, yes, yet still we dance that same dance, with the steps assigned to us by fate. It is inevitable. One must die to resurrect. One must fall to rise."

Specifics: GriffithxGuts (Because I’m boring). Canon-typical warnings. A canon-divergent story that diverges so early it's almost pre-canon. 13.4k (ignore AO3′s word count, it LIES) but it’s a little more complicated than that. This story is about 43k long, and is broken into 4 “Books.” I will post one every week. The entire thing is already written so don’t worry about it being dropped or delayed.

...I love how I never actually tell people what a story is about. I don’t know why I do that. 

Anyway, Happy Pride!

TO BE CONTINUED!

I am looking forward to find anything new concerning GriffithxGuts!

[leilasucksatnames]

Convinced my ma to watch beserk...and..

"Did he really just say that--" "yeah there's gay subtext--" "SUBTEXT?! More like flashing neon signs are you kidding me--"

I about died lmfaooo.

Why do you think that griffithxguts/griffith fans are more critical of berserk than the other sides of the fandom? On twitter&reddit the fans are ridiculously defensive,if you dare imply not every aspect of the manga is top 1 they will jump on you and/or downvote you to hell ("trash opinion" "you just don't get it" etc.) while here we have no problem handling both praise and criticism. I love berserk,but acting like it's the divine comedy and miura is dante alighieri it's excessive.

Oh also if you dare to express a non-negative but still unpopular opinion they will act the same. E.g. currently twitter fans are losing it because someone said griffith>guts. 

lol yeah this is definitely the impression I also get from fandom. If I had to guess I’d say part of it is probably that fans of a non-canon ship are more likely to feel unsatisfied with the story and so less likely to consider it perfect and above criticism.

Plus like, griffguts is an extremely compelling ship and if it’s the main reason you’re a fan of Berserk, it’s all you really need to care about to enjoy a big chunk of the story. If you’re into Berserk for griffguts, you don’t need to like everything else about it, you can hate other major aspects of the story and still be into the fandom. Whereas if you’re a fan of Berserk because of the writing/characters/plot etc then chances are you don’t hate a lot about it.

There’s probably other things that contribute too, like transformative fandom culture vs curative fandom culture but I’m not well versed in those more like, sociological takes on fandom lol so I can’t say much about it. But as a general rule it does seem like the subtext-reading fanfic-writing etc side of fandom is often less invested in the inherent quality of the original canon than the trivia/merch collector side of fandom.

GriffithxGuts fans have no taste and they don't fear death, every encounter I fear for my life

Fic: When Night Comes Down (4/4)

When Night Comes Down 4/4

In which all things must end.

Specifics: GriffithxGuts. Guts is an Apostle, IDK. Canon-typical warnings - a little heavier this time than the last two but still nothing you wouldn’t see in the series itself. A canon-divergent story that diverges so early it's almost pre-canon. 8k for this Book, 48k for the entire story.

Short but sweet? Or well. Short but over, anyway.

Happy Pride again!

P.S.  Looking at the numbers I somehow added about 6k more words in revision what is wrong with me.

Fic: When Night Comes Down (3/4)

When Night Comes Down 3/4

In which the puppet strings of destiny begin to make themselves visible.

Specifics: GriffithxGuts. Guts is an Apostle, IDK. Canon-typical warnings - a little heavier this time than the last two but still nothing you wouldn’t see in the series itself. A canon-divergent story that diverges so early it's almost pre-canon. 12.3k for this Book, 40.3k and counting for the story to date.

We’ve got one more to go. The next one is... the shortest, but obviously also the ending.

Happy Pride again!

Part 4 next Thursday!
