Dcmk Fancanons That We Forgot Were Fancanons

Forever sad for the people in North America who didn't get the poetic titles for The Circle of Magic Quartet The Magic in the Weaving The Power in the Storm The Fire in the Forging The Healing in the Vine I remember moving to Canada, going to the library and shrieking internally when it was just "Sandry's Book" etc.

"Why can't the freaks on AO3 just go and make a site for all the gross stuff and leave AO3 alone."

Because AO3 is that site. Because AO3 was that site long before you decided AO3 was better than the sites you bullied us off of before, and I can promise you if someone somehow comes up with a fanfic site you like better specifically for the 'gross stuff' you'll try to bully us off that too so you can benefit from it.

AO3's specific core purpose is to preserve fanfiction, yes, but it was also instigated as a host site for the fanfiction that kept getting yeeted off other platforms like Wattpad. Its designed to preserve all fanfiction, not just the fanfiction you, personally, think is 'allowed' to be written.

AO3 is the site for all the gross stuff the freaks make. We've been there just as long as you. We've been funding it just as long as you have. AO3 has specifically said you have a place here. The timeline was literally:

Wattpad/FF.net/LiveJournal purge fanfics > AO3 is born > The people who's fics got purged moved over to AO3 > AO3 gains popularity as the best functioning site > The people who pushed for the fics to be purged off Wattpad move to AO3 > The same people try to push for AO3 to purge fics.

AO3's source coding is open-access. You go make a polished, strict, rigid site where nothing 'icky' is allowed. You go make a site where you can control what is hosted. We already have our space.

I should be studying but have my take on this meme instead

Bonus:

actual conversation i had with my friends today

me: omg you remember that fic i was reading that i talked to you about slow burn that was like 16 chapters in and person A hadn’t even show romantic interest in person B yet 

PERSON A JUST GOT JEALOUS OF PERSON B OMG IT’S FUCKING HAPPENING

friend: yayyy 

me: OMG THEY ARE TOUCHING EACH OTHER HANDS

OMGGGGGG PERSON A JUST KISSED PERSON B HAND OMG I FEEL LIKE I’M READING SMUT

and that’s what slow burn fics do to me

That’s not a toy

BONUS:

right, so. 

regardless of the merits of this particular story, there is a larger point to be made.

this? this is a cisgender man and a nonbinary alien in a sexual/romantic relationship.

a queer relationship. a relationship that is queer and canon. 

there is, quite simply, no other interpretation on the table. they fuck. they’re fucking. other questions are still up in the air but they are definitely, 150% fucking.

so when (not if, sadly) some smug fanboy rolls his dead, soulless little eyes at all the stupid womenfolk and queers on tumblr who want Eddie Brock and the symbiote to be a couple lol those sad horny freaks

that fanboy is wrong.

he’s just wrong. he’s as wrong as a guy telling you that Dr Doom is white or that Batwoman isn’t a lesbian. he’s wrong. that’s all. that’s it. he’s a wrong guy being wrong. know this and, in the wake of all Cates-like entities to come, draw comfort from it my friends.

I recognize that canon has made a decision, but given that it’s a stupid-ass decision, I’ve elected to ignore it and indulge myself in fanfic

I’ve been a little bit obsessed with bnha ww

Ok, so I am currently rereading the Legend of Eli Monpress series, and I had a thought. How do they eat? Everything in this series is supposed to have a soul, a spirit. For the majority of the series a lot of the spirits are asleep and not everybody can hear the spirits anyway, so I can understand the humans eating fruits and vegetables and meat then, but after Spirit’s End (spoiler alert) all the spirits are awake all the time and all the humans can see and hear the spirits. So how do people eat? The animals of course are fine, predator, prey, etc. But how do humans deal with being talked at by their crops, or their fruit, or even their livestock? Even if the livestock don’t really have much to say. Do the humans ask permission? Is it ok because of the whole cycle of rebirth thing? I really need to know the answer for this because it’s really bugging me.
