i love when authors keep canonically insane characters like…insane. as much as i enjoy indulging in sweet, gentle men and women, i LOVE seeing characters off their rocker
i know that psycho killer who betrays everyone is not gonna maintain a healthy relationship but he’s not real and he’s still hot so it’s okay

I've got memory issues- it's me, probably the one you'll keep seeing liking all your posts
anyways, I always can't remember why I follow your acc since I don't even remember if you write fanfics
but then I reread your blog AGAIN and then I remember AGAIN
...and i'm just out here wondering wth is wrong with my memory
i used to write fanfics but i kept having months where the motivation wasn’t there. plus i was going to uni soon with sports, work, and greek life 💔. i can’t manage writing alongside that many things at once 😭
but i’m glad you at least remember when you reread my blog!! sometimes i go thru it to figure out wtf i was thinking when i posted certain things

read your input on "poc friendly", i'm planning to write a fanfic soon... but i want poc to feel like it's a space peaceful to them and so that they can search it up
what'd you think i should do, i'm really new to this :')
oh, and also, can I tag you when I first post my fic?
some people may disagree and that’s fine. these are just my opinions :)
the biggest tip i can give you is to just let people know what they’re getting into :) if the reader you have in mind isn’t white, just write “character name x non!white reader.” if you have a certain race or culture in mind, like maybe the reader is desi, just put “character name x desi!reader.” if you’re just writing a general reader insert that’s open to everyone, just say “character name x inclusive!reader.” content warnings are there if you want to add other details, like eye color (try to avoid adding eye colors for reader inserts unless it’s a fantasy story…like try not to give the reader blue eyes for no reason) or hair length and such. warnings don’t have to be about bad things, they’re just there so people are prepared :)
if you just want poc to feel like your blog is a safe space for them (regardless of if your fic is a reader insert or oc), you could also specify that by literally stating that your blog is a “safe space for everyone” or by having a do not interact list (such as minors dni, homophobes dni, racists dni, and anyone else you don’t want interacting with your blog). the dni list usually goes on people’s pinned posts where they do a rundown on their blog, but you can also list it before your fic starts (like in the area a summary or the content warnings go).
i’m sure you’ll do great regardless. and ofc you can tag me :) everyone’s new at some point and we all learn as we continue. people keep learning even years after they start something too <3 every fic is different and if you want people to feel comfortable, just let them know what they’re getting into. if the fic is good enough i just ignore physical details that don’t match me and pretend they never happened. that’s what our imaginations are for 🙏
each fic is different though, and sometimes authors have different types of characters in mind for their reader inserts. if this didn’t help please lmk and i can go into more detail 😭 i just wanted to give you this for now

the phrase “poc friendly” is so strange to me like…i’m not an animal?? i saw a tiktok bio saying this 😭 like i know there’s “pet friendly” and “kid friendly” but “people of color friendly”⁉️⁉️⁉️
‘hey can i bring my friend into this establishment? she’s a poc 😕’
‘yes! our new sign actually tells you we’re poc friendly ☺️’

btw guys this is for both native and non-native english speakers. no hate but there are many non-native speakers that have better grammar than y’all
Here y’all:
your - possessive (this is your pencil)
you’re - you are (you’re so pretty)
there - a location (the car is over there)
their - possessive (that’s their car)
they’re - they are (they’re over there)
it’s - it is (it’s really hot today)
its - possessive (each room has its own bathroom)
were - past tense of the verb “to be” or “are” (we were at the mall. we were buying decorations for the baby shower)
we’re- we are (we’re going to the movies on saturday)
i couldn’t care less - i could not care less (implies you don’t care at all. i couldn’t care less means you care so little that it is impossible for you to care less than you already do. i could care less implies that it is still possible for you to care less than you already do)
affect - to produce a change in something or someone (this exam will affect your overall grade. the results may affect your mood as well)
effect - a result or consequence (the exam had a negative effect on my grade. it also had a negative effect on my mood. i wrote my essay about the effect computers have had on our lives)
y’all- you all (y’all can save this for later)

Someone asked for a post on punctuation months ago. I haven’t gotten to it until now. My apologies. I’m using proper punctuation here because it’s meant to help. Most of this information is just what I remember learning. There are probably more uses for each section, but I can’t describe everything well enough. Keep in mind that this is American English, not British English. British English and American English have different words and rules. I learned English as a second language, yes, but I learned American English. Please be mindful of that as you continue.
Question marks ( ? ) are used to indicate a question. You don’t need a full stop when using a question mark.
Is that my shirt?
Why are you wearing my shirt?
Exclamation marks ( ! ) are used at the end of a sentence to indicate a strong feeling of emotion. They add emphasis to the sentence. You don’t need a full stop when using an exclamation mark.
I can’t believe it!
That’s amazing!
Semicolons ( ; ) can be used as a replacement for a period (full stop) when you have two closely linked independent clauses next to each other. Independent clauses can stand as their own sentences. They don’t necessarily need any extra information to make sense.
Call me tomorrow; you can give me an answer then.
You can also use a semicolon before words like however, but only when they introduce a complete sentence and when you put a comma after.
Bring any two items for the charity event; however, toiletries and shoes are in short supply.
Semicolons are also used when there are commas within a list.
We will be traveling to Rome, Italy; Nice, France; Madrid, Spain; and Berlin, Germany.
Colons ( : ) are not the same as a semicolon. They are explanations of different things. They may introduce a list, an explanation, or a quote. Colons can connect independent clauses with lists and nouns.
Here is what I need: paper, a ruler, paint, and a pen.
If there are two or more complete sentences following a colon, capitalize the beginning of each sentence.
My mom taught me three rules: Be honest. Be vigilant. Never hurt others.
Dashes ( — ) add emphasis, just as many other types of punctuation do. However, they can also change the tone of a sentence. They usually indicate a dramatic pause or an interruption of some sort.
You’re the one, the only one, I want to marry.
You’re the one—the only one—I want to marry.
Dashes can separate unnecessary information from the rest of a sentence.
Maria—my friend from tennis—got married on Wednesday.
Dashes can show an interruption in dialogue.
Eloise screamed, “Help! I need someone to help! My sister is fall—“
Dashes are also used to show a duration of time.
It is from 1:35–6:25.
Hyphens ( - ) bring words together.
They can connect individual words to make different phrases.
State-of-the-art.
Off-campus.
Hyphens can help to make new words, like original compound verbs.
Video-games.
Hyphens can also be used to connect two last names from different people.
Mary Smith-Johnson.
Arianna Rivera-Hughes.
Quotation marks ( “ “ ) are used most often in dialogue. Capitalize the first word if you have a complete quotation.
Marianna said, “There is nothing more unfortunate than a man who is too blind to see his faults but has eyes perfect for seeing women.”
If you are continuing a sentence, don’t capitalize the quoted material.
Marianna told us that it is “unfortunate” to see a man who is “too blind to see his faults but has eyes perfect for seeing women.”
Parenthesis ( ) are used to enclose clarifying information that isn’t necessary to understand the sentence. Periods go inside parenthesis when the whole sentence is in the parenthesis. Otherwise, the period goes outside.
Please read my research. (You'll be shocked.)
Please read my research (you'll be shocked).
Commas ( , ) can be used to separate a list of things.
We need to buy apples, blueberries, bananas, and strawberries.
I have been to Japan, Taiwan, Italy, and France.
The sentence above is also an example of the Oxford comma. This is the comma used before “and” in lists.
Without the Oxford comma: We need to buy apples, blueberries, bananas and strawberries.
With the Oxford comma: We need to buy apples, blueberries, bananas, and strawberries.
Commas are also used to to separate independent clauses that are joined by any of these conjunctions: and, but, for, or, nor, so, yet.
The performance was over, but the crowd refused to leave.
I spent an hour explaining the equation, yet my brother still didn’t understand.
Commas can also be used to separate nonessential or nonrestrictive clauses from the main clause.
The dog ran down the road, wagging its tail.
My brother, who used to be a teacher, is retiring in May.
Commas are also used to introduce and interrupt dialogue.
Marianne laughed, “I have never seen you so devastated. And for what? This?”
“I don’t understand,” Laura sniffled, “why you have such little empathy.”
