My thoughts on the Aventurine drama
I've been inactive for a while, I was (still am) busy in real life but coming back online to post and seeing discourse about a newly crowned favorite character is disheartening. Even more so, that people are harassing other writers over a drama I feel is overblown.
I have thoughts regarding it but I'm unsure if my opinion would be appreciated. But if you'd like to peacefully talk it out with me, I'd be happy to lend an ear. I'd like to hear both sides, as meager as my opinion may be.
Oh boy, here we go.
Aventurine is a character, a fictional being born to entertain the players. He is not real. He can not be offended by what you create of him. There is no point getting upset on the behalf of a character and prioritizing fiction over a person who does actually exist.
If we do want to condemn slavery fics, why not also cancel slave reader fics? Or ones that include things such as dead dove (including yanderes in general) fics because those topics are equally terrible to condone and write about from that point of view. Or how about other characters that have similar topics in their lore. Should those also be canceled too?
*There are also folks who make problematic pieces to help cope with their own trauma. Does that mean they should be canceled too? (On that note: making a piece that holds problematic content does not always mean the person condones it in real life. Fiction is fiction for a reason.)
In the end, I think everyone can have their own opinions, but I would like to say that your opinions do not justify terrible actions. Just because you disagree with something does not justify you bullying someone into deleting one of their works, whether it is art or writing or anything else, I do not think that is justifiable. Harassing someone or calling people to harass them is not right either.
*If you did disagree with it, why not message the author about it instead of making accusatory posts? Even when done with good intentions, all it does is cause harm when it's practically inviting people to go harass someone over a fanfiction. A very mild fanfiction at that.
If you disagree with a piece, cool. That's your opinion. Just don't interact with it then. Block that creator or that tag or whatever it is that led you there. Or if you're curious, ask that creator.
Also, to reiterate, in my opinion, fiction is still just fiction. Especially when it's a fanfiction about a fictional character. Yes, his canon lore exists, but people can use that basis in fanfiction, something that will inherently warp canon because we are not the original writers and can not capture him in the exact way he was created. In case that doesn't make sense: Fanfiction does not have to comply with the original lore. Also since some of you seem to be forgetting: fiction does not mirror real life.
If you are truly that concerned over sensitive topics like that, directing that energy towards projects that involve such topics in real life would be much better than attacking people on the internet.
#Ink stained letters#I'll probably delete this#If I remember#Sometimes I forget I post stuff#aventurine x reader#The slavery fiction drama#That I have#Let's say thoughts on#Will maybe start posting stuff again#Harassing people is not it though#Isn't that a saying#Two wrongs don't make a right#What an unfortunate time to return to#Killed my will to post things#I'll still post something today or tomorrow to make up for being gone#And for this post#Also people getting mad for a character is really strange#In my opinion#The characters aren't real?#They can't get offended?#Why are we hurting real people over a character that isn't real#This is my take on the drama#Can everyone stop harassing other people over fiction#I don't find any sense in it#This is my opinion#hsr aventurine#Also from my experience#Call out posts are generally just harmful#Especially when you don't make it a secret of who you're talking about#Let people write what they want

when i was younger, most of my barbie’s were my moms old ones. so i had totally hair barbie, superstar ken, and one other one.
now something u need to know about my mom is that she LOVED michael jackson. like she was him for halloween one year kinda loved. handmade sequin glove and everything.
so the other ken doll i had was a michael jackson barbie. here’s what he looked like, except the glove, sash, and microphone got lost over the years.
this doll scared the SHIT out of 6 year old me, so he stayed at the bottom of the bin with all the clothes i had piled on top. and if i needed another ken, he was an ex boyfriend exclusively lmao
#i love my mom#but DAMN#barbie#michael jackson#vintage barbie#he was released in 1984 if anyone is wondering#oh i just found out he’s not actually from barbie#he was made by LJN and 3 other michael jackson dolls were released by them that year#this is his AMA outfit#there was his Grammy outfit#Thriller outfit#and Beat It outfit#as you can see#i did a lot of research to find the exact doll i had lol#also i just want to say#that i have#nothing against michael jackson#i dont know anything about him except for he has some banger songs#he may or may not still be alive#and that he apparently has 4 dolls made of him

Maybe this needs to be said? People, please do yourself a favor and stop subconsciously treating paganism as "Christianity Lite". Seriously.
#I know I know it can be hard for some people to completely unlearn a lot of the basics they've been indoctrinated with since their birth#but you need to start from a blank slate if that's that case and you need to go about it very thoroughly#paganism#heathenry#controversial opinion maybe?#well this is a blog where I go to have opinions about heathenry#and whether they're controversial or not is up to the reader#since to me they're just my opinions#that I have

I see a lot of writing advice that I don’t click with, but the idea that you need to know everything about your character up to and including favorite colors and high school subjects always seems so unnecessary, because like, when is that ever relevant?
In unrelated news, my high school extracurriculars just came up in a job interview.
#i anticipated part of this but#i did not expect to be asked about stage lighting experience#that I have#and have not thought about since I was 19#some people jive with making as detailed a character as you can#but i only need to know what’s relevant to the story#and apparently my theatre rat days are relevant to this one???#lt talks

The Death Watch was a violent splinted group of mercenaries who disagreed with Mandalore Jaster Mereel’s insistence on honorable behaviour.
#star wars#jaster mereel#death watch#star wars miniatures#that i have#you know it is funny how sources like to say jaster was all about honor and/or honorable behaviour#but never really dwelling on what that supposed to mean#i mean the golden age of mandalorian was about picking a fight for honor and mandalorian empire attacked and destroyed many worlds#while mando bounty hunting was seen as them losing a honor and being about money#at least in canderous ordo's eyes#and then jaster demands honor from his men but true mandalorians / jango never had any second thoughts about killing people who tried#to rebel against their opressors yet the opressors are the one with money so mando works for them#so the honor doesn't sound as about for whom you work#but rather how you work#so it still doesn't tell us why jaster and tor fight because honor is#not a rigidly defined concept and varies from person to person#but when we hear someone cares for honor then we all oh he must be a good guy#but what is a honor and honorable behaviour for mando mercenary who take money for killing other (also weaker) people?#and we know from JF: OS that Jaster saw Mando just as higly paid mencenaries#so was their conflict about a mando... job etiquette?

in the hour or so it took me to draw this op turned reblogs off
EDIT: reblogs are STAYING OFF. op was right and correct and i have never regretted making a post as much as this one. if you want to reblog my art you can reblog something else from my blog. or commission me, lord knows i deserve financial compensation for the nightmare this post has put me through
#art#i had to block multiple people because of this post and i easily could have blocked more#do you guys have any idea how exhausting it is to hear 400 people make the exact same unfunny joke each thinking they're being original#or worry that another person might get harassed over a post i made because of the way people are talking about them#or be harassed/insulted YOURSELF because some people don't know how to fucking behave#you guys don't get reblogs back. you should be grateful i'm leaving the post up at all.
