my first favorite hobby is yapping. second is being extremely quiet and not talking ever at all ever.

[mintisbored]

not to be "comment on fanfic even if they are oooold"

But I just read a pretty good fic published in 2014-2015 (you know, roughly TEN YEARS AGO) and I was like, damn this is so cool, I have to leave a comment, even if you know, they probably wont see it...

The author replied less than an hour later.

being a fan of a female fictional character is like yes im in love with her soulfully and carnally but i am ALSO her defence attorney her ambassador her pr manager her representative her missionary her right hand arm man her silly rabbit. her scholar her explainer the last man standing in her army. phd in explaining her nuance and depth priesthood in her church. could i be talking about other things?? move on?? maybe!!! were i not the animated suit of armor in her temple bound to protect her for eternity

sorry to be negative on the dash but..... y'all need to be nicer to fanfic writers. we all know interactions are decreasing, and even during the nine months i've been on here, i've noticed a decrease.

tell writers you like their works. comment on their works, reblog their works.

some of you act so entitled, and idk if you've noticed but you're literally making writers miserable. it makes me so sad to see my mutuals deactivate because the joy of writing has been taken away from them by ungrateful readers who are constantly demanding more, more, more, to the point where people are experiencing burnout and anxiety because they can't keep up with the constant unrealistic demands.

reminder that even though it takes you five minutes to read 1k words it might've taken the writer hours to get the words down, proofread, edit, and make the perfect fic layout.

some of you complain that there are no "good" fics anymore, yet you do nothing for the fandom, do nothing to support writers and just hide behind anon and blank blogs, complaining about every little thing till you've driven all writers off this site.

it's so tiring. please be kinder. we're all trying our best here.

Magnus Archives au where Jon just REALLY loves birdwatching

“Supplemental, on my way to the archives today, I saw a bullfinch fly out from the hedges outside the cafe, it was a nice surprise. Anyways, I think all my assistants want to kill me”

Do you ever think about Jon and Tim. About how Tim used to be the funny guy. The happy guy. The "flirting with cops to get info" guy. Do you ever think about Jon being the super dry, stuck-up holier-than-thou boss. Do you think about how back in MAG11 Jon says that Tim is the only one of his assistants to *not* have made up that statement as a prank? How long have they known each other? How close were they? How well did Tim know his friends so they could blindly trust him to not cross any lines?

Do you then think of everything past the worms? The way Jon didn't even trust Tim anymore, who got infested right besides him? Do you think about how Tim couldn't forgive Jon for the paranoia and distrust? Do you think about how Jon got more and more desperate while Tim grew bitter and angry? Do you think about the way Jon naturally knew Tim would come along to stop the Unknowing, that Tim would be the one to blow everything up? Do you think about Tim being grateful for that, but still unable to forgive Jon?

They clearly knew each other for ages. They knew each other well. They must have been close in some ways, at least. They seem very opposite, character-wise, but all those little comments and actions prove something else. And it fell apart so quickly, so easily, and there was no chance for them to mend anything.

Do you ever think about that?

I hope you do now, at least, because I refuse to suffer alone with this
