By far my most popular fanfic in the Zelda fandom is Wolfhide. (I almost typed "Wolfwood" - damn you, Trigun-brain!) Anyway, I wrote that fanfic nearly 20 year ago, when Twilight Princess was a recent Zelda game, and it's still going strong with readers. I get a lot of commentary and kudos on it. Not to tell people what is a good fic or a bad fic - I am overjoyed that it resonates with people to this day and it is one of my own fics that I like, but I must say that I am surprised that it is as well-regarded as it is when the "twist" is something that can be seen from 50 miles away. I don't consider it particularly good horror in terms of surprises, as "what a tweest!" is more of a foregone conclusion. Perhaps what people resonate with is that forgone conclusion and the tension of bracing themselves for the characters finding out? Anyway, thank you to the people who still fling comments my way on a fic I wrote, like, 18 some odd years ago.

sometimes the best writing advice is "just let it be bad." revolutionary. terrifying. but it works.

it is legit bizarre to me how hard video game creators and film directors and showrunners try to pretend that fat people don't exist. can you think of the last time you saw a fat person in a lead role? god forbid a fat woman? i can walk down the street or go into a shop or restaurant and see fat people everywhere but then i switch on the tv and suddenly it's like a glimpse into an alternate universe where no one has a bmi over 24. insidious and weird

You're just not toxic enough.

Watching Star Wars in chronological order is so funny.

Obi-Wan Kenobi really took one look at R2D2 in the middle of the desert and said “No, Luke, I’ve never seen this fucking droid in my life. Looks like a real bitch though. Not that I’d know. This is my first time meeting the asshole.”

No one in that whole franchise was Gatekeep-Gasslight-Girlbossing quite like “Ben” Kenobi, regular human-man.
