i literally dont care what your excuse for using AI is. if you didnt put your own effort into making it im not putting my own effort into interacting with it.

GET. AI. OUT. OF. FANDOM. Stop making headcanons with it, stop making fanfic with it, stop making fanart with it. If I see one more "asking chatgpt *blank* about *character/characters in a fandom* I'm going to lose my goddamn mind. Use your own fucking brain, stop asking AI to do everything. You could even ask other real people what they think. Just. Stop. Using. AI. In. Creative. Spaces.

Being inclusive with your reader insert fic is a kindness. It tells people of color (poc) that you are considering someone who does not look like you in your fic. It shows love and dedication to our craft. It tells poc that they belong here too and they can see themselves in your story.

Poc aren’t look for activism in fic, we know fandom isn’t that serious, but we should be able to have that same level of escapism when we turn to fic and fandom. We belong here too. This space is for everyone, not just one group of people.

Just to give a few examples of how simple it can be: say “skin warmed” instead of blushed, say “cradled your head” instead of running fingers through hair, say “angles yourself to kiss” instead of standing on tiptoes, use italics to indicate Spanish to take out a throwaway line of “you didn’t understand Spanish” things like that. Small changes that do not impact the fic at all but make a world of difference in inclusivity!

And for anything you can’t/don’t want to change, simply add warning in the beginning. Things like hair descriptors, anything reader might wear, some backstory for reader (especially involving family or where the story is set), readers job, things like that. A lot of times just having that heads up before the fic makes a world of difference!

And one example of kindness we as writers always worked to change: until recently (just a couple years ago) it wasn’t common to label the gender of the reader. But those who aren’t female asked writers to label it so they know which to read and which to avoid, and now it’s common to label the gender/pronouns of the reader. So it is possible! It just takes effort! And I’m a writer myself so I know it can be done!

We can pretend to be a bartender or a bounty hunter or an actress or anything else. But we shouldn’t have to imagine we’re a white one.

Since we’re in Latino heritage month now I want to bring something up again that’s worth talking about when it comes to reader insert fic:

Can we as writers please be aware that latine people are present in fandom and not make the assumption that the reader does not speak Spanish?

Especially when writing for Latino characters, latine people look to them for representation and it feels very exclusionary to assume the reader doesn’t know Spanish. Latine representation is hugely important for us. Actors like Pedro Pascal, Oscar Isaac, Diego Luna, Gabriel Luna, and more are so important for that representation and they all understand that importance. With the lack of latine and poc characters, it’s always very meaningful when we are represented. And it’s very hurtful that people can assume that their audience is only white.

Some ways to work around and be inclusive: You could use italics to indicate Spanish, say “you didn’t hear” instead of “you didn’t understand” so that way it’s more open to interpretation, provide an immediate translation in or out of the context and let readers decide for themselves if they understood it or not. Very simple things make a huge difference in inclusivity and don’t change your story at all!

And another note too: please be respectful when writing Latino characters and actively work to avoid getting into fetishization territory. Be aware of harmful tropes and stereotypes that exist while writing Latino characters. I.e. the Latin lover trope, the whole papi thing, “spicy Latino” etc. The characters aren’t real but the impact it can have does affect real people and it can make latine people uncomfortable to see it in fic.

Remember that inclusivity is a kindness and people of all walks of life read fics to let’s work to make everyone feel welcome and loved and seen in our reader insert fic!

~ 

“Meirda, Rook,” Lucanis purred, “You look so beautiful in the moonlight.”

“Lucanis…” you playfully nudged him as you felt your skin tingle. His words always made you feel a flutter in your chest, something you weren’t used to. And to be honest, you were sure if you could ever get used to his sweet praises.

“It’s true, Rook,” he ran his hand along your bare skin, “No other sight compares to you, mi amor.”

He had you stripped bare before him and on your back out on a pile of blankets. Only the moonlight illuminated your bodies as you laid together under the stars. There was a slight nip in the air, but you didn’t feel it at all under Lucanis’ warm gaze. 

“Are you always such a romantic, Lucanis?” you smirked.

Lucanis gazed down at you from where he hovered, his arms on either side of your body to frame you between his hands, “Why don’t you find out?” he replied with a quip of his own.

You couldn’t help but laugh softly, and Lucanis joined in your laughter.

“Your laughter is music to my ears,” his tone dropped as he turned more serious, “And…” Lucanis closed the gap between your faces, taking your lips with his own in a tender, sweet kiss. You moaned into him as you grabbed his arms. “You taste so good,” he murmured against your skin before he kissed you again.

“Mmm,” you hummed into his kiss as his tongue danced with yours.

“Mas dulce que cafe,” Lucanis whispered.

Sweeter than coffee, you echoed in your mind. Any smart reply you had vanished from your thoughts as he kissed you again. This kiss was deeper, more passionate than the last, yet it was still slow. Lucanis took his time with you, tasting every corner of your mouth, savoring you.

When he finally broke away from his kiss, you inhaled deeply to fill your lungs again. Although you felt like you didn’t even need air with Lucanis around; his kisses were all you needed to survive. But, you felt breathless once more as he kissed his way down your neck, licking and nibbling at your skin. You buried a hand in his hair, tugging gently as he sucked at a particularly sensitive spot.

A slight giggle escaped your lips as goosebumps erupted on your skin. You knew he felt it too because you felt a low rumble from deep in his throat. That rumble went right to your core, though, sending warmth throughout your body.

“Lucanis…” you breathed as he shifted himself down.

“I know, mi amor,” he muttered as he kissed his way across your chest.

As he reached your nipple and wrapped his lips around it, you let out a loud moan. Arching your back into him, you tugged at his hair harder, encouraging him. You bit your lip to stifle another cry as Lucanis’ tongue rolled around your nipple before he gently bit it.

“You like that, amor?” he smirked as he glanced up at you with half lidded eyes.

“Tease,” you sighed back with a smile of your own.

“I am enjoying myself,” Lucanis’ eyes lit up as he dipped his head down and licked your other nipple, “Every inch of you is sweeter than the last,” he muttered as he kissed his way down your stomach, “But there is one thing I am craving more.”

“You’re impossible, Lucanis,” you tried to roll your eyes playfully, but his kisses distracted you from your banter.

“Just as impossible as you, mi amor.”

“Luc…” you were cut off by his mouth in between your legs, and you let out a gasp as you felt his tongue on you, “Fuck!”

Lucanis hummed with satisfaction as he devoured you. He gripped your thighs tightly as he licked and sucked between your legs. From the first moment he tasted you, he was addicted. He craved you every moment of every day, and even after having you, Lucanis always needed more. He felt his heart pound in his chest as he covered you with his mouth, greedily taking more of you.

You felt like you could float away if it weren’t for his strong grip holding you in place. Your eyes rolled back into your head as you arched your back. Cries of bliss filled the air as you felt his tongue swirl around you, lapping at every sensitive spot. Your legs trampled on either side of his head as you felt heat build from your core and your skin tingled with pleasure.

As you panted, you heard the sound of obscene splurging from between your legs as Lucanis ravaged you. If you were in a clearer headspace, you would have thought that he got just as much pleasure out of this as you did. And you would have been right. Blinking your eyes open- you didn’t even remember closing them- you caught a glimpse of his head between your thighs, and it made you groan as a fresh wave of pleasure pulsed through your body.

Dropping your head back down, you moaned even louder, “Lucanis… I’m gonna…”

He wanted to tell you to cum in his mouth. He wanted to tell you to let go, that he had you, that he would always have you. He wanted to tell you how good you tasted, and how beautiful you looked when you lost yourself. But he couldn’t tear himself away; he became too lost in you, too consumed with pleasuring you. Instead, Lucanis sucked harder, determined to send you over the edge.

It didn’t take long for Lucanis to get what he wanted, and you came hard with a loud scream. Your entire body shook as tears filled the corners of your eyes from the overwhelming sensations. You cried out his name as you yanked at his hair and surrendered yourself fully to him, trusting him completely.

Lucanis kept going until he was sure he got every drop of your release, only breaking away with reluctance as you came down from your high. He pushed himself up to admire you as he licked his lips, not wanting to waste a single drop of your juices.

“Mierda,” he sighed as he watched you recover.

You opened your eyes and you felt your heart skip a beat from the way he looked at you. No one had ever looked at you with such admiration and awe the way Lucanis did, and you were sure you would never get used to it.

“Come here,” you whispered as you opened your arms for him.

“As you wish,” Lucanis grinned as he lunged forward, covering your body with his as you wrapped your arms around him and pulled him in for a kiss. You both moaned into each other as you tasted yourself on his tongue.

As you locked your lips with his, you tried to roll your bodies over so that you could straddle Lucanis, but he stopped you. Breaking away, you looked at him with questioning eyes, “Lucanis?”

“I am not finished with you yet, mi amor,” he groaned as he leaned forward again to nibble on your earlobe, “I want to spend all night kissing every inch of you,” he kissed the nape of your neck, “I want to taste you over and over again,” Lucanis savored the moan you let out.

He paused, pushing himself up on his elbows to meet your gaze. He waited for you to open your eyes once more, and when you did, he gave you a mischievous smirk as he added, “Until it’s time to stop for coffee.”

I know right! Like how is that their first response when asking for kindness? And this anon wasn’t even hiding it either.

Yes I agree this anon probably doesn’t even care about inclusion either disability or neurodivergence they just used it as a prop for their weak argument. And playing the victim too for no reason because I wasn’t even attacking anyone!!

I swear too if these white people actually had to experience what poc in fandom go through they couldn’t handle it. But they think that asking for inclusivity somehow intrudes on their fandom experience and because they don’t know otherwise they feel the need to go on the attack. I swear I haven’t gotten it this bad in a while but idk what was up with these people this week!

“Being inclusive with your reader insert fic is a kindness”. No. ❤️ Look how you’re not talking about disabled or neurodivergent people. You’re asking for inclusivity by only talking about POC. “Be respectful and do your research. Literally not that hard.” Then instead of asking other writers to do it, write the fics yourself! I honestly do not care about you calling me a racist. 

I just know you love to call people racist just because people are allowed to be white and I bet you don’t even know what the term even means because you are way too chronically online. I think life hasn’t been hard enough for you to be worrying about this madness. Let me tell you, a random person on the internet is NOT going to tell me what to do with my blog. Hope this is clear enough for you. 

Wow.

I will say yes you are correct that including neurodivergent or disable people is absolutely important. As is including plus size people. Inclusivity all around it’s important. But this is also distracting from the current topic at hand and I would argue that deserves a separate post otherwise it gets overwhelming.

And, like I’ve said before, I am a writer and I do fucking write it myself.

In the grand scope of things, yeah fanfic is low on the list. But, with all the shit going on in the world, everyone should be able to indulge in escapism through fanfic. I’m not trying to tell random people on the internet what to do, I just try and offer advice and suggestions on ways to show kindness to others. But since you obviously don’t care just fucking move on and ignore the post. Why bother with this if not to just be an asshole? Go fuck yourself.

[flightlessangelwings]

I see the anons are back on their bullshit again, so I'm sending love and kuddos to you. Fuck that noise, bb.

Thank you bb 🩷🩷

What’s worse too is there are ones I just deleted and didn’t publish because they were that bad. People can really suck sometimes. Much love to you too 🩷🩷

[flightlessangelwings]

you are a wonderful WONDERFUL human being who is absolutely undeserving of all the heat you’ve gotten. you didn’t have to make all those posts that are full of resources and are a call in for the fandom to do what community SHOULD do and care for each other

as someone who made a lot of the same mistakes (so many of my reader fics had ‘pink’ and ‘red’ cheeks omg or fingers running through hair) it’s honestly not that difficult to unlearn and if i noticed it as a challenge it took me all of five seconds to rearrange. Five second and some self awareness which may have prevented someone from feeling like i was alienating them from the fandom experience.

you become a better writer by growing and learning and it makes it more fun for everyone. if making other people feel included makes someone so angry they are clearly very guilty or very miserable or probably both.

i’m sorry they’re taking it out on you

Exactly like why would you not want to learn and grow and be better?! It baffles me!! Like people would rather just be ignorant and stick their heads up their asses!! And it’s so simple too literally it’s not a big ask yet they blow it way out of proportion!!! Empathy is rare these days apparently

Thank you my dear friend!!! Love you Olly 🩷🩷🩷🩷

[flightlessangelwings]

It’s because they see white as default and don’t like being reminded otherwise. Absolutely agree with everything you said too!!

“be inclusive” then go and find another writer to do it for you instead? you will ask this and get mad a writers for being white and writing black characters “the wrong way” make up your mind. jesus.

I love how every time I reblog that post about inclusivity that starts with “being inclusive with your reader insert fic is a kindness” someone gets real mean about it.

First of all I’m a writer myself so I know what I’m talking about. Thus, I know it’s not that difficult to leave skin tone descriptors out. We’re asking the bare minimum here and yet it’s constantly a battle. And the reason we ask this is because 1, it shows kindness and curiosity to those who don’t look like you, 2 if it’s supposed to be a reader insert then most anyone should be able to picture themself and 3 poc exist and deserve to feel seen too.

And you won’t “write black characters the wrong way” if you’re not being racist and using stereotypes. Be respectful and do your research. Literally not that hard.

And y’all wonder why poc aren’t active in fandoms anymore. Racism everywhere.

[flightlessangelwings]

Lamo right, they got heated over this today for some reason. Whatever, racists gonna racist 🤷

Hi wow everyone is being really annoying and mean over nothing! Please have some flowers to drown and ignore all the nasty anons

Thank you so much 🩷🩷🩷 Sadly it’s all too common for poc in fandom but it got really bad today for some reason idk why these anons got so heated over something so simple
