I really don't understand how "without getting kudos or comments a fanfiction author is going to assume that people who clicked their fic didn't like it" became a controversial take.
I don't know why some people think an author should imagine, or guess that people who click their fic enjoyed it it when nobody is telling them that.
If you're re-reading a fic constantly, or leaving it up in your tab so that it re-loads every day for a hundred days the author is not going to know that unless you tell them. They'd love to hear it. It would make their day.
And if you don't tell them you liked their fic, there's no reason for them to assume you did.
THIS ALMOST MADE ME CRY GOD DAMN
I’m a sucker and I have a hc that Dave Lee is Mark’s maternal uncle—brother to his mother, he kept the family name (unmarried) while Mark’s mother took her husband’s name (Heathcliff). Also had the idea that….for whatever reason they stopped talking and as a result he lost touch with his nephew and niece. Still….he was in Mandela the night Mark died when Mark’s parents weren’t, and Thatcher had to tell someone. That someone ended up being him.
How must it feel to know the little boy he remembers, hand barely big enough to fit in the palm of his, gone forever now. He never got to know him as a seventeen year old, and now he’ll never know him as an adult either. The next morning, Dave Lee never showed up to church. O’Brian called, but he didn’t answer.
How could he believe in a God that would let this happen?

“He was just a boy…”

J: "Dude, how do towels get dirty if you use them when you're clean?"
A: "What."
J: "Think about it, though! If you're using your towel when you're *clean*, how does the towel get *dirty*?"
A: "What the fuck are you on about."
J: "THINK ABOUT IT"

(Idk just something that I came up with while I was taking a shower)
Once you've been on tumblr for long enough, you'd be immune to culture shock for being isekai'd. There's no fantasy world bizarre enough that you'd really be surprised by anything, it's just "oh that's how you do things around here". You could get whisked away to the Land of Oz and see nothing you couldn't shrug off. You're already used to the concpt that anything you say might prompt the sudden appearance of a living, talking straw man who shows up out of nowhere to sing you a song about how they don't have a brain.
as my mother always told me, its morally correct to punch a nazi!
the neurodivergent experience:
20% of the time: wowwieee!!! i love my passions and interests!!!!! they make me so happy i want to jump up and down!!!!! weee!!!!!!! :3333333333
80% of the time: this mind is a prison
Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.

i'm not "undiagnosed" i'm largely headcanoned as neurodivergent but with no confirmation in canon. i hear a showrunner said something at a panel last year but it hasnt been leaked on youtube yet.
I ALSO LOVE MARK WITH BEAUTY SPOTS AND CURLY HAIRED CESAR RAAAAAHH
(also directed to the asker, SUCH SCRUMPTIOUS ART??? I LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE DRAW CESAR WITH A HORRIFYING UNHINGED JAW)
not me taking inspiration from your (and one other person’s) mark and cesar designs for my final project for my sculpture class.

Aw thank you, I'm flattered! I personally love it when people draw Mark with little beauty spots everywhere, it gives him so much charm :)
