It IS true that being on here gives you a tumblr accent. This morning my mother asked me something and i replied "i don't know i've never heard these words in that order" and she nearly choked laughing. It wasn't even that funny

I've been reading a fic where the writer is meaning to say "gramophone" but keeps saying "sonogram" instead and I'm just like, PLEASE get a beta. I'LL be your beta. Just someone to proofread this PLEASE

I'm trying to find ficof what I THOUGHT was a popular f/f ship but APPARENTLY has only about 1000 works on ao3 and like? Hello? Where is the fucked up stuff? I want to see them get serial killer-y and weird. It's all fluff or WORSE background for MEN.

fanfiction truly is the funniest art form. i just read a scene in a fic that was verbatim the elevator scene from the winter soldier but with donald duck and one of the enemy agents was perry the platypus. you truly cannot get this any other way.

32 chapters into this fanfic I'm reading (aka over 200k words) it has suddenly become a homestuck crossover

what is the funniest fic tag on ao3 and why is it „workplace injuries” for HBO’s Chernobyl

Had a dream this morning that Archive of our Own had a Random button which would simply take you to a random fanfic, like Wikipedia has. (AO3 does not appear to really have this, I checked and couldn’t find one, but I kinda wish they did.) Someone had started a game where whatever fic you got, that was your new fandom, which is very fun! I would love this meme in real life.

The problem came in where so many people used the button that it broke and just started sending everyone to Stealing Harry, and like…I have fond memories of Stealing Harry but it’s not my best work and nobody should be assigned to be a Harry Potter fan in this day and age.

So I decide to go off and find Astolat and demand she fix this but when I finally did (there was a whole quest) she turned to me like the baddie in a horror flick and said, “But that’s the most random story there is” in a dark voice and I was terrified and woke up.

In the cold light of day I know there are more random stories by me on the archive, let alone by others, but I’m not going to try to get back there to argue my case. Pretty sure whatever I spoke to was actually the demon specifically assigned to plague fandom and not Astolat at all.

I’d say “get thee behind me, demon” but I know just how many porny fics on AO3 begin with that premise. (I’ve written some.) Begone foul spirit, and take your Satanic Panic with you!

Ao3? More like Ao2 (Archive of My Own) which is just my folder of untitled, unedited, and absolutely feral Google Docs I have no intention of sharing with anyone

Some people come up with the logistics for a joke fic at work to cope??? Fudging ages and dates for the stupidest crossover concept you've ever thought of is something that can actually be so personal

if your hope should pass away

Summary: Jason Todd is born on October 1, 1989. This wouldn’t be so remarkable if his mother had actually been pregnant prior to this.

Read on AO3 here

“On the morning of October 1st, 1989, Sheila Haywood was late for work.

She had woken up on time, performed her morning rituals (shower, hair combing, tooth brushing, etc.), but was interrupted on her way to the bus by her water breaking. This was especially unusual because she had not been pregnant when she woke up that morning.“

Folks are like “this person writes amazing fanfic, but it sucks that 90% of their work revolves around some ancient show that only boomers have ever heard of”, and then you check their AO3 profile and it turns out that the ancient boomer show in question is from like 2014.
