Note: I already have a queue lined up, but this would help give insight on what to feed you guys next week. Like prepping birdseed for pidgeys in a park!

(Have fun submas takes? Hot head cannons? Criminal thoughts that are begging to be released into the chasm of my canvas?

Feel free to scream them here! I am Listening.)

Link to submas masterpost btw!

Okie dokie I feel like I need to throw this out there since there's been A LOT of activity appearing in my inbox these last 2 weeks in addition to new followers (both for HL and LaDS)

I'm not singling out anyone AT ALL. I just need to be fully transparent here (even though it makes me physically ill to do so) ⬇⬇⬇

I am so so sorry to be the bearer of bad news, and I really do feel bad about it because of how many I get in a given day, but...

I don't actually take requests.

I'M SORRY !!! I'm such a people pleaser and saying no literally makes me nauseous so this is really hard to type. There's thousands of people interacting with my posts and enjoying my stories every day (which I am SO grateful for) but with that kind of attention comes an overloaded ask box that I can't help but be a little overwhelmed by ;;

Everyone is more than welcome to send them to me anyway, and I promise I see them... but I have to make it clear that if you choose to do so, you're henceforth accepting that I might not acknowledge it. If I were to respond to every one I ever received with a refusal, I think I would flood everyone's feed. I physically and mentally can't create content for every single one I get (unfortunately).

Yes, sometimes I'll receive something that sparks the creative flow– in which case I did technically take a request– but despite recent evidence to the contrary, those instances are actually pretty rare.

I'm not saying this to discourage anyone from sharing their ideas with me or to make anyone feel bad, but in the last month or so I think I've received roughly 20+ requests. It might not seem like a big number, but it is pretty daunting for me.

I encourage anyone sending me fic prompts to do the same with other great writers contributing to the HL/LaDS fandoms !! There are lots of talented creators here on Tumblr that would love to whip up oneshots or multi-chapter works for some of the wonderful ideas everyone is submitting, and some who actually already have ! I've definitely seen and read fics recently that match some of the requests I'm getting to a T :))

Anyway, I'm sorry for the long post. I really do feel bad having to publicly state it like this, but I feel worse knowing that some people might be waiting for me to publish something for their requests. I wish I was the kind of writer who could create thoughtful stories for each individual prompt I get, but sadly I cannot :((

Lots of love to everyone ! Remember to stay hydrated and check your posture 💕

Did you think I’d miss Fukase Friday? （｀Δ´）！

[allblognamesaretakenso]

just a psa: if anons want to have an actually nuanced conversation about privilege and fandom hate, i am very much happy to do so, and also happy to admit when i am wrong, or don't word things right. but almost every anon i receive ends like this:

and thats when ur entire point becomes null and void and i WILL be ignoring you. u dont care about having important conversations about marginalisation or justice, u just care about hating a random dude. u can't stand that luke has his own fans who stick up for him when in ur delusional mind he's this cartoon villain that ruined everything for (shock horror) being papped with his gf?

stfu about defending nic in my inbox when you will never stand up to the ACTUAL haters who criticise her everyday, and dedicate ur existence to trashing one of her closest friends instead. ur pathetic and sad and hypocritical, not the strong justice warrior u think u are.

Soph I love you but Taylor Swift does not “make herself the victim” there’s so much valid shit that has happened to her for us to feel that way about her, which most of her fans honestly don’t even see her as - granted there as some obnoxious ones but that goes for all fandoms.

Like for example of the experiences I was talking about.

- being sexually assaulted and then being called “greedy” for suing the guy.

- being painted as a “snake” because she didn’t react well to someone writing a misogynistic song about it. Which I feel like is a valid reaction as a woman in entertainment.

- being groomed at 19 by a 30+ something year old.

- getting called a snake worldwide for a narrative that 2 people - who were more famous than her at the time invented.

- being bodyshamed constantly when she had an eating disorder

Yes she’s privileged and has always been, coming from money and having fame, but she does not portray herself as the “victim” and the fact that people think she does just for standing up for herself makes me sad, not because of her but because being a woman myself it just paints the picture that women’s pain or experiences will always be brushed under the rug because we’re classified as “dramatic” and “we should take it with more grace” “be thankful about the good things” like??

I understand that you don’t like her but that assessment just seems wrong.

like i just. you realize you're proving my point right? like this - not just this message, but all of the ones i've gotten where people are waxing poetic about all of the struggles taylor swift has had and how she is absolutely a victim and how dare i suggest otherwise - is exactly what i'm talking about. you feel the need to jump down the throat of anyone who says anything remotely negative about her. this is the whole "victim" narrative, that she is vulnerable and must be protected and defended from all negativity at all times at all costs.

and like. that is on purpose. she has cultivated that narrative for this reason. so that publications are now afraid to post reviews of her albums with bylines because their journalists are getting death threats if they criticize her.

i am not suggesting that taylor swift has never had anything bad ever happen to her. that would be insane. i am trying to say that this culture that has been cultivated within her fanbase of defending and protecting her, is extreme and irrational. and when you don't buy into it, it makes a lot of the content surrounding taylor swift very hard to swallow.

Happy Birthday!!! 🎂

Ahhh Im getting back to this a bit late but thank you!!! TAT

[changingplumbob]

Did some SBL writing today and feeling pretty good about it? The main section of Rachel spice will just be one post on my April 1st and I'm having flashbacks to the anxiety I felt before the last Alexander/James love scene was published with worrying if Tumblr will stick me in the sin bin. But don't worry, I also wrote a Corason scene that is 0% spice, 100% cutesy teens.

I've been having some mood problems the last few days and I'm really hoping it's just PMS combined with super low energy following the funerals. Anyway if I seem less chipper or upbeat that's why. Fingers crossed it stops soon because I do not want depression back *hisses in its direction* If all else fails hopefully I can just channel my sad energy into Byron's writing.

happy birthday, ponies

Thanks to the cursed existence of the untreated ADHD memory-hole, my Ao3 inbox has spent the past ~5 years accumulating comments that I planned to reply to later.

I read every single one as soon as I got the email alert. The long comments that were like book reports I read at least twice. Often a lot more.

I planned to reply to all of them eventually. When I had time.

But the memory-hole is what it is, and I just. Kept forgetting.

And then the next time I'd open Ao3 I'd see an increasingly daunting number on the inbox. Today, I tried (again) to chip away at the older comments so I could make the inbox more manageable, but I literally had 80-something pages to catch up on, and... oof. It was too much.

I didn't know where to start.

With the old comments? The new ones? The long ones? The short ones? The comments that were only emojis, so I could just respond in kind and knock out a dozen really quick?

The executives did not wish to function.

So, the one executive that did show up for work (stick with the metaphor please) made the decision to just delete everything except the first page. Clean slate.

All of this is to say that if you ever left a comment on one of my fics and I either took forever to respond or didn't respond at all, this is why, and I am now going to try my goddamn hardest to just respond to comments as I receive them from here on out.
