If You See Me Randomly Start Smiling Out Of Nowhere, Know It's Not Because I Have A Crush On Whatever;

okay but there is something disquieting about this urge to cast fan writers as altruists. they give us all this for free!! well, no.

they’re sharing

it’s a key difference in perception. fic isn’t given. it’s shared. it’s part of a fandom community— in which readers are also an integral part.

it’s probably inevitable mission creep from the increasingly transactional nature of the internet and fandom-as-consumerism, which was always gonna happen after corps worked out how much bank there is to make from those weirdo fan people

but like. fandom is sharing. i think we’ve lost that somewhere.

i will defend that fictional teenage girl with my life. i literally don’t even care what she did. you would’ve done it too if you were her she’s probably handling things better than you would in her shoes

My problem with the "looks like a cinnamon roll - looks like they could kill you - is actually a cinnamon roll - could actually kill you" thing is that there's a very big difference between characters that could kill you and characters that would be willing to kill you.

Like, the opposite of "is actually a cinnamon roll" should be "would actually kill you", and there needs to be a z-axis of "has the destructive power of a cinnamon roll" to "living nuclear bomb"

Just realized I can make my own posts... I'm coming here from Pinterest, and I'm used to just reading stuff, but I can actually... you know, say things.

I think you should be able to fish in every video game

I just really appreciated this and wanted to share

The only grinding I do is level grinding, can I get a "hell yeah", my fellow gamers?

I wonder if “we have to torture this special character. in the lab facility. with secret science.” is an interest all 12-year-old children share or were we just the generation exposed to Maximum Ride
