Neil, in canon: *uses a computer on a regular basis to check the news, clears up his search history afterwards, doesn’t use his phone not because he doesn’t know how to but because he’s paranoid and associates it with his late mother*

Some of you demons: Neil is a DUMBASS who DOESN’T KNOW what a phone or a computer is which is why social media fics/headcanons are OUT OF CHARACTER and UNREALISTIC lolololololol

I’ve been thinking a lot about how trauma is dealt with in fiction, both published works and fanfiction.  Specifically, I’ve been thinking about sexual assault and the way it is often handled, so I’m going to say right now: if this is a triggering topic for you, you may not want to read further.  I am very frank with my language and discussion here.  (And I’m putting the rest below a cut; I apologize if that doesn’t work on mobile.)

Keep reading

I feel like there needs to be some kind of post for MCU fans on How To Write About Africa because I feel like there’s a lot of people out there who want to write about Wakanda and T'Challa but are worried about being problematic and that makes me sad because there’s SO MUCH GREAT meta to be had about T'Challa and Wakanda but at the same time there’s a lot of legitimate concerns about perpetuating racist stereotypes and yeah.

T'Challa and Wakanda could be such a great way to introduce people to amazing sci-fi concepts that people should know

My imagination of how Andrew and Neil’s apartment looks in chapter 7 of If You Must

Chapters: 7/16- SOPHOMORE YEAR- WINTER

Enjoy!
