As a collective I think we really ought to talk more about this mandrill baboon sign Mickey has in his room that is clearly stolen from a zoo. When did he get it? How did he get it? Why did he want it?? And perhaps most importantly, is The Lion King his favorite Disney movie and Rafiki his favorite character? I just have so many questions.

Once again i am here to support fanfic writers i am an extremely vocal advocate for fanfiction writers in fandom space yall are so important and you provide fics that are beyond exceptional FOR FREE????

Fucking hell

more adhd jason grace or die by my sword

at the risk of sounding like really entitled….

does anyone else have a fic that is their most popular, but you don’t want it to be, because you don’t think it deserves it, and you have better stuff, and while ofc you are grateful that people like something you wrote, it’s almost annoying that for some reason That one is the most popular. lmao

you ever have a fic get you in such a chokehold you start pacing your room and talking to yourself

oh fuck. wait. hold on. do we have a pacific rim dreamling au yet?? do we? because. fuck. fuck. we need one. listen, it's a fandom right of passage. we need a pacific rim au that we're all obsessed with. we deserve it.

Reading the stuff I write in the middle of the night is always fun. Just like, damn, she was really going through it last night, huh?

Tumblr! Let me edit my own fucking reblog! I need to add more tags on that post!!!

fic talk in the tags 💝

The world always needs more Thrawn angst. As in angst to other people caused by Thrawn. Hurt no comfort everybody dies. I wanna see him at his worst

i’ve always wanted to narrate my own work so I’ve decided to make a podfic of “with my teeth” because it has so many different voices and little asides and the theater kid inside of me is just dying to perform. i’m rlly excited just thinking about it, I love the breakneck speed of that fic and the way it just builds and builds to a sickening crescendo. plus this gives me a chance to break out my herbert impression :)))))

Reonagi piggy back rides, just like the good old days! I love them <3

One thing I really love about Community fanfics is just how often people write about their own autistic experience and apply that to Abed. For one, I think it's just cool to read about how others experience the world. Some parts are relatable to me and others maybe less so, but it's interesting to find out about the differences and learn something new. Also, there's so many different kinds of experiences that are represented and that's the coolest thing ever. I can find whatever and read about all the things I do, and it feels awesome. And also all of it seems in the possibility of canon, so it's not even like any of it seems ooc. It seems completely possible and cool, and I love the fics in this fandom so much, and I hope any of that actually made sense

i'm so sorry to see that you're being vagueposted about for your sylki takes. it may be true that how you see sylki is a bit different than a certain section of the fandom, but that doesn't at ALL mean that you shouldn't be allowed to have your own takes! fwiw, i followed you bc i actually agree with and really enjoy ur perspective on sylki. i was getting frustrated with how many people seem to view this ship in a super heteronormative way and want sylvie to basically become a housewife, and i was so glad to find a blog that felt the same way. this fandom has become tiring tbh with how many people are now freaking out that sylvie hasn't immediately started having lokis babies in s2, and i really wish that people would at least leave room for others to have their own opinions!

this! that section of sylki shippers do not leave any room for you to have your opinions! they act like a fanon police controlling what you say in your posts on your blog!

and god forbid that what you say opposes their own hcs and takes, if you commit this unforgivable sin of having a take that is different from theirs, you better be ready for some good old online group harassment! they will make you feel like you are not welcome in this fandom, they will make sure that you are hurt, they will alienate you and force you out!

but no, you are the bad guy for jokingly calling a fandom in general "vanilla" and saying (after several disclaimers that it's your personal opinion) that when it comes to canon, you don't think that sylvie should be all about being loki's housewife.

at this point i honestly hate this fandom. there are some decent sylkis out there and i love the ship itself, but a big portion of the fandom has simply sucked all the joy for the series out of me. i wonder if they realize what the consequences of their behavior could be? back when i said (in my blog) that i don't think sylvie having babies is a compelling completion of her story in canon, and this bunch came to my blog to harass me for my takes, i was in a very *very* bad place already, and the space that was supposed to be my escape pretty much turned on me and added up to an already depressing state i was in.

and bfr anyone says that it's just a fandom wank, let me tell you that these people know how to be really cruel, whether they realize it or not, their behavior is simply cruel. they don't just argue in favor of their opinion, they shit on you personally, get aggressive towards you personally, make you feel like you "can't sit with them", ect. it gets really creepy and ugly.

and the thing is, i never addressed anyone specific in my posts, i never said *this* person and *that* person have shitty hcs/takes, i never even vaguely hinted at a distaste towards the hcs/takes of someone specific, but they accuse me of pointing fingers. when i said that i didn't think canon sylvie having babies would work, i never said anything about sylki babies in fanfiction, yet people accused me of pointing fingers at the fic writers. and they would come to my blog, harass me in the replies and asks, and talk about how despicable i am in their own blogs, and it went on and on for a while.

thanks for your nice words, anon, they are uplifting. and to those who can't stand me so much, don't worry, i'm going to leave this fandom once the series is finished. i hope you are satisfied that being a shitty, gatekeeping, narrow-minded, egocentric person worked for you! but don't ever feel entitled to complain about how lokius shippers treat you.

the candles were lit, the christmas tree was put up, baubles and tinsel and lights, beautiful and warm. somewhere above him, someone made gingerbread, the smell of cinnamon and ginger coming out through their window in the cold air of december. carols sung under his window, frank sinatra, and carols passed down from one generation to the next, parents to children and children to their own.

and remus was utterly miserable.

he lit up a cigarette with a snap of his fingers, the same way sirius used to. remus liked pretending he never quite got the hang of it, just so he could feel sirius' face, so close to his, their noses almost touching, their love burning them the same way fire burnt the nicotine, the cigarette, all of it. remus liked joking to himself; had they not been smokers, maybe they wouldn't have set fire to everything they ever had.

the last christmas he had spent was with them. of course, looking ragged and weary and through james' thick, dark hair, remus was sure he could make out greys. lily's hair seemed untameable, and remus chuckled, telling her she finally resembled james.

peter looked ill, and his eyes continued darting from his friends to the door.

(remus asked him if he was fine; he said it was nothing. he was dead now. all so sudden. he had gotten the invitation from lydia to his funeral. he came, and she cried on his shoulder and he helped carry his casket. it made him sick to his stomach, and he locked himself in his room and, for the first time since his mam's death, he allowed himself to grieve. real, raw grief.)

marlene and dorcas looked the best out of all of them, but lines of worry still crossed their faces whenever they looked over to james and lily, hari in their arms, taking turns. a façade of happiness, because even if babies are wordless, they know. they can feel the air of misery, of anger, of death, looming above their heads in thick smoke.

the last christmas they had spent together, they were alive.

and now they were dead. the only thing father christmas had brought that year was death, grief, anger, and feelings so complicated and never explained. he could have brought a little bit more time, to bid one last goodbye.

happy christmas, war is over.

Ok I gotta ask, what are your thoughts on all this speculation and worry that they’ll be broken up come season 4? HAPPY THOUGHTS ONLY!!

"happy thoughts only" anon you have come to the right place!! since a few hours after i finished the season, I've been rainbows and sunshine about the potential of season 4.

I'm gonna say something maybe mildly controversial: I'm actually glad they left jiara open ended in the 18 month time jump. I would have liked to see more in the rest of episode 10, but I wouldn't have changed anything about the time jump scene in relation to Jiara.

The thing about the Pates is that they like to write themselves into corners. With Sarah and John B's "death" in s1 and the pogues getting stranded on an island in s2, they usually have to write themselves out of the last season before they get started with the plot of the next season - and there's usually a little bit of a wacky plot line to go along with it. I don't see the blackbeard thing as a corner - they can do anything with that small, small snippet of information we've gotten.

And similarly, they can do anything they want with Jiara in season 4. Are they together? are they broken up? have they not talked about it? are they just not into PDA? It could be any of those things, or a million others, and the writers aren't tied to any of those plot lines. they can pick and choose whatever feels the most natural, and I think that will save us from some wacky story line that we won't like, if that makes any sense?

and i'll be so honest, I'm an easy girl to please (I say as I critique literally everything the pates do down to how they breath) and I think there's a lot of ways that the pates' own blind spots can work for us here. Remember in s2 when there was a month long jump in the banks that was equivalent to 2 days in Jarah B time??? if there's an 18 month time jump in banks time that is, like, a week in Jiara time, I'm seated. If they're fwb who are about to make the distinction between "i love you" and "i'm in love with you", I'm seated. If they've been dating this entire time and they're happy but not into PDA, and Luke coming back starts some external pressure that they work through, I'm seated.

i know this is blindly hopeful. I know. but it's honestly how I feel!! and maybe tomorrow i'll be doom-and-gloom, but as of now, i'm looking through rose-tinted glasses.

and at the end of the day, I just come back to this:

maybe i'm silly but I'm not worried!!!!
