ai does not belong in creative spaces. period.

when in doubt about whether or not to make a thing, do it for your 3 hardcore fans.

"i want a dislike button on ao3" so you want less fanfic. even if you don't think you want less fanfic you want less fanfic. because when people start getting dislikes on their fanfic they will want to write less fanfic. hope this helps <3

shipping isn’t about what the writers or actors say is or isn’t romantic. shipping isn’t even about romance a good percentage of the time. shipping is about seeing The Dynamic and going absolutely hog wild in your mind and your friends dms about it.

but what if i read one of your fanfics and then went to your ao3 account and read all of your fanfics and left a comment on every single chapter of every single one and you got spam emails from all of my kudos and comments and it made you smile, what then? what if i brighten your day with my words like you did mine, what then???

in 2025 let’s bring back being enthusiastic on ao3. leave a comment on every chapter. leave kudos and, if necessary, leave “double kudos” in the comments. tags and notes on bookmarks. the whole nine yards. let’s show fanfic authors how much we love them.

[j4cko1antern]

In my humble opinion

[j4cko1antern]

[j4cko1antern]

if it's good enough for you, then it deserves to be made. don't let anyone else decide if your story is worth it or not.

Becoming a writer is great because now you have a hobby that haunts you whenever you don’t have time to do it

so much bullshit has happened to zane that the fandom has a specific tag just for him and it’s ZANGST

[j4cko1antern]

do you think arin read ninja fanfiction? Does he have to look Zane in the eyes every morning and pretend like he didn't used to regularly browse the "Zane x reader" tag on ao3

love the idea that kai and nya have the exact same hair length but you’d never know it because nya just lets hers do its own thing or throws it into a ponytail (normal and sane,, expected,,,) but kai just genuinely refuses to leave the monastery if his hair isn’t sticking up at a 90 degree angle

[j4cko1antern]

not Lloyd telling Arin that because he taught himself spinjitzu he has the potential to be the greatest ninja ever. not Morro desperately wanting to be the green ninja and Wu telling he has the potential. not the parallel. please not the parallel. PLEASE

S3 love triangle except it's not actually a serious love triangle, Nya and Jay saw it popping up repeatedly in romcoms they watch together and decided they want to do one. Cole gets dragged into it cause, Kais Nyas brother, Zanes crushing on Pixal and Lloyds Lloyd. Yes they have to beg him to do it. Yes he only agrees because its funny to him.

That's just the way the cookie crumbles //

So, I still think about seabound DAILY

IT DEVASTATES ME TO NO END UGHGFHBHHF
