Are there any stories you enjoyed reading as a kid, that you still enjoy as an adult, even if it's for different reasons now?😊

Hmmm sort of?? I was kind of an avid reader as a kid so I look fondly back on a lot of the series that I picked up like "The Tail of Emily Windsnap" or a "Series of Unfortunate Events" but I haven't reread them in adulthood. I watched the SoUE series on Netflix though and that show was deliciously frustrating in every way. When I have time, I definitely will revisit some of those series just for the sake of nostalgia and sorta for research because I want to write books of my own.

Like a lot of people, the Harry Potter series was such a formative story for me and it's one of the few I reread in early adulthood. The series, like any series has it's flaws, but it was really good. But that's not enough for me anymore. I just don't feel the same way that I used to about the series anymore mostly because of JK and her thinly veiled transphobia shenanigans, to put it lightly. Before her shenanigans were brought to light, I felt kind of weird about her retconning certain details in the HP series. But yeah. I don't wanna go on a JK rant but to put it simply, the story itself has a special place in my heart, but it's not like I'll be revisiting/supporting works from the vastly over-extended HP universe anytime soon.

I never read Percy Jackson growing up but everyone around me did. I always told myself that I'd get to it eventually and NOW I AM AS A GROWN WOMAN LOL. I'm on book 4 and it is soooooo gooooood. Wonderfully done. Again, this series has its flaws too but it's a great story. I think the difference between Riordan and JK is that when people called Riordan out on some of the iffy things in his book, he owned up to it and apologized which I think takes a lot of integrity and makes me appreciate his books more. I'm really excited to get to the 5th book and then the spin-off series!!!

here's a little comic, it's not completely show!gomens compliant but its headcanons i enjoy

comic notes under cut :)

I enjoy Az already realising he likes Crowley by the time Adam appears but hasn't yet worked out what to do with that information bc acts-of-service Crowley Can't Talk, Wont Talk.

Crowley on the other hand has been VERY GOOD at ignoring why he spends so much of his time around Az so only on the crux of YOU'RE GOING TO LOOSE HIM did anything manage to force its way through to his brain. (i did not enjoy crowley being told he was in love with az in s2, i think he could have worked it out himself)

i rly enjoy hcs where they started sleeping together and with humans for fun (i mean the ox ribs scene sets some v good precedent for this) az sleeps with humans bc he indulges! he likes pleasure! crowely on the other hand is very bad at catching feelings and doesnt like it when they die so has mostly only slept with az (did i mention he's VERY good at ignoring his feelings) but they probably haven't slept together for a few hundred years when adam pops up.

my compliant show!hcs are still that az knows he loves crowley (i mean the scene with jim where he leaps out of the chair to attempt to protect crowley saying no he defo doesnt know ANYONE who he feels that way with, don't look closely at anyone he is with) and is just sort of sitting on it still, waiting for any hint from crowley, planning a ball definitely only for humans and no other reason. Crowley is obviously very protective of Az but he still hasn't clicked why he's worried about him but he doesn't have the excuse of heaven or hell anymore so it wouldn't have taken much for him to work it out (hello one of his first lines in s2 is "you ever think, what's the point?" the point is love you idiot)

(book!gomens is just they're already married and have been fucking for centuries but the book just doesnt mention that.)

Y’all, the Archive admins are made up of VOLUNTEERS. And they have been working for 12-13 HOURS STRAIGHT.

I better not hear any complaints when donation period comes around. OR ELSE.

cosplay by @woahchriswoah on Twitter

EDIT: How do we show appreciation to the volunteers? For me reading these deep dives on OTW issues u guys apparently it's been said multiple times that one of their objective statements is to have paid staff for ao3 and there's a surplus of donations they haven't used up or the other community solutions that needs to address. For those more financially literate feel free to analyze, snipe me or add to the discussion etc. linked here by deepa. They’re cool and these yearly analysis they did aint no joke.

But Seriously what can we do for these volunteers? The probable burn out from this entire fiasco would be no joke. @ao3org

One of H. R. Giger's first designs for the Xenomorph from ALIEN. The transparent skull was too tricky to create so they changed it.
