Do you think there's a "too late" to start creating for a fandom? I got into TSP just recently pretty much, and while I love writing fanfics for it and even doing some art, I just worry a lot.

It may just be because Tumblr isn't a good place to share anything anyways. Or posting writing daily is too much for people. Or I'm overthinking!

But I admire your art and I love seeing you on my dash a lot! From TSP to your OCs and all the other things c:

Sorry if this is a dumb ask. Or too.. negative? Just sorry

Emptynarration im holding your hand so sweetly and saying no, it’s never too late to create art for media you love. TSPUD has been out for almost 3 years now but I still find there’s art I want to make about it. Hell, there’s people who’ve been making stuff since the original release in 2013. There are women in their 70s who’ve been making Star Trek fanfic for the past 30 years. It’s never too late. It can be hard to get started and seen for sure. It’s scary. It can be hard to find the right tags/audiance (although I’d argue tumblr is at least better than twitter, where if u don’t take off in the first hour you get drowned out lol.) But it’s always worth it to put your stuff out there if you want to, and more importantly to create it in the first place.

prev anon can’t imagine a happy ending for an illithid? Sounds like a skill issue. Your art made me so happy to see I got butterflies because it’s such a sweet concept and so well executed. Also, (I haven’t played the full game myself) but doesn’t bg3 make it a point to say how illithids are capable of being their own unique people if given the chance? Sounds like anon would rather make sweeping shallow statements on a race without thinking much deeper on that. A huge talking point of dnd nowadays is looking past the borderline racist original depictions of evil-aligned races and finding something good and fun and compelling about them. This is why we have orcs that defy their “evil dumb” archetype and vampires and drow capable of good and tieflings in so many different colours!! 😂 Im so sorry for the tangent in your inbox but free your mind anon!! kiss an illithid! You have nothing to lose but your chains!!! 🦑💞

awww thank you anon, what a sweet message!! I was nervous to post that art of my character because it was my first time showing her off and I thought people will be weirded out by it (I had meant to post some kind of character design reference sheet explaining her Deal, first, but... I got bit by a galemance fixation......) but I won't let one single rude anon spoil my fun, I was actually blown away by how many notes that art got and how enthusiastic people have been in the tags about illithid tavs!! 🥰

I agree with you that since the very beginning of D&D it's been a grand tradition that the monster manual will say that some monster race is ALWAYS evil and there will be always be the people who look at that and go "okay, but what if there were a good one of them though" lolol. While drow and orcs and so on have been thoroughly moved into the category of "just people who have a different culture" for a while at this point, it's a lot harder to justify a non-evil alignment** for an eldritch sci-fi alien that is required to consume sentient creatures to live and is biologically hardwired to dominate and mind control... but damn if Larian didn't take a look at that and do so ANYWAYS, with ~three completely different characters no less. IMO it's a big part of the themes of this game to look at a supposed "monster" and be forced to see the nuance in them. [i mean, just look at the dark urge's character arc!!! if that person can be a hero despite their innate biological bent towards evil, why can't a mind flayer?]

**ngl vennet miiiight be neutral evil, if i rly had to put her on the alignment scale i'm btwn that and true neutral, but she was Bad before the ceremorphosis lmao. sorry if i tricked anyone with how cute her & gale are but also she's essentially a 'mad scientist' character and if anything becoming a mind flayer Fixed Her. lol

Anyways since you guys seemed to like Vennet, there is more art of her (with & without Gale) coming from me at some point but in the meantime if you want to see some pics of what she actually looks like in-game here are a fewww! obviously as her original drow self and not tavflayer which always looks the same and which i didn't even do in the actual gameplay lol

referencing the last reblog so i don’t end up writing a mcfreakin novel in the poor person’s notes:

because god it really sucks holding it all in. my therapist is cool but it’s hard to explain some of these things that bother me to someone who isn’t as “online.” so i resort to posting about the things on my tumblr because it’s the closest i can get to talking about things to someone else without feeling as much of the guilt. idk my mind is an anomaly. speaking of guilt im putting a “read more” here now because this dumb thing’s getting long and now im thinking about the things that have bothered me that idk if i handled right and i don’t want to subject others to seeing it if they don’t want to.

ALSO i think im going to tag my random posts that i make when im having sad bad brain times with “trash rants” so please feel free to block that tag as needed!

the following is essentially about being in a discord server that had both minors (15+) and adults in it and the complications i had in that environment.

one thing that happened a while ago involved a situation within a fandom discord server that idk how tf to even explain the situation to a professional without feeling like an idiot. an adult artist had a character that other people in the server liked. one time that person posted something they drew of that character topless with a message about how boobs shouldn’t be sexual which is absolutely right. but then the others + the artist started making comments about the character’s boobs that i became very confused with how to interpret. my brain was like “are the intent of these comments to be suggestive/sexual in nature or am i being an ignorant asshole for interpreting them as such and it’s because i’m being the problem and seeing boobs themselves as a sexual?” it was even more complicated because the people involved in making these comments were underage. it got even even more complicated because then some of these underage people started drawing the character topless with more comments that i didn’t know how to interpret. one of these people at some point told the original artist that they would privately dm them the more nsfw drawings they were doing. and everyone seemed to be having a good time going “BOOBS 👀👀” and all that and the channel was going crazy. but i was getting so uncomfortable and confused. and i felt like such an asshole. because i like boobs too and society shouldn’t see them as something inherently sexual. but the underage folk being involved made it so complicated for my brain. because if some random person not involved with the server looked in on what was happening, couldn’t it be seen as minors making and sending an adult nsfw art? even though it was very likely NOT the intention of the original artist.

what i ended up doing was bringing my concerns to the server owner, which was responded well to. a rule was put in place about sharing nsfw stuff. but i felt so guilty about it. i felt like i was being a party pooper and ruining people’s fun. i still wasn’t sure if i was even doing the right thing and if it was a problem within me and not with what happened. i was born into a conservative religious background so it was only when i became more independent and was allowed access to the internet that i got to start to unlearn the bad things that were taught to me. that background is something i’m trying so hard to separate myself from, but it’s something that i’m afraid will haunt me. was what happened in the server not actually a problem, and it was because my brain wants to do the bad society thing and interpret boobs as sexual? did i ruin everyone’s fun because i’m just an ignorant asshole who got uncomfy at something i shouldn’t be getting uncomfy about? i still don’t know. anyway, i ended up leaving the server because i just couldn’t enjoy it anymore. once in a while that original artist’s stuff pops up naturally in my feed because we’re still in the same fandom, but i can’t even look at their art or even their name without feeling all the confusion and guilt again. which i feel terrible about because they seemed like a really nice person and they’re a great artist! and i really don’t think they had any bad intentions at all when that situation in the server happened. but i just can’t do it.

that situation was the first moment i truly realized just how scary it is and careful you have to be when you’re in an online environment where adults and minors can freely interact. it’s easy to forget ages when you’re just a profile picture, and how easy it can be to influence someone young, and how dangerous that is, whether your intentions are good or not. it made me realize that i don’t want to be in that type of server where you’re directly interacting with underage people. because i’m a fucking mess and i don’t know what the hell i’m doing 90% of the time. i don’t want to somehow mess up a kid! even if it’s an accident i didn’t want to risk having that accident happen in the first place. it’s one of the reasons why i can’t bring myself to ever draw and post nsfw art anywhere either. i just feel so uncomfortable about it. to me it’s fine if others do it if they’re doing it in a safe way with the necessary precautions, and they shouldn’t feel shame in it! it’s just not something i feel comfortable doing myself.

jfc im so sorry if anyone actually read this far. this whole thing is so stupid. i wish i didnt let it bother me for so long. there are a lot of stupid things that my brain wastes time worrying about. maybe writing all this down will help me explain it to someone on the “outside” who can tell me how to stop it. i don’t know.

[mouldingch33se]

before i say this, i want you to know that im saying this as your friend and not as a hater. i think that you should put credits on art you find on pintrest. as an artist myself i would be a little angry if someone posted my art without credit. i think when you find these pictures you should tag the person who posted it. that way if someone sees the art and likes it they know where to go. i dont think anon should have called you disgusting or anything else they said, because its an honest mistake. i dont think you had any ill intentions, just try to link the persons pintrest, or have their name in the post. sorry this got a little long, im not trying to be mean or anything. just think about how you would feel if someone posted your art without credit. i hope you have a great day/night, and i luv u (platonically)💚💚💚

Hi, so

I found it on Pinterest, and it wasn't even posted by the original artist, probably a stealer

I had no way of knowing who made the drawing

And most of the pictures I post (that aren't my own art) are from Pinterest, so most of the time I have no clue who even makes the art that I find on there

Again, I'm sorry, I'm still human, sometimes I make dumb decisions.

On top of that, I also have Autism and ADHD, and I'm not using that as an excuse for anything. It's just something you might have to take into account when you interact with me.

Well, that's all I have to say, moot. Sorry again.

[thompsborn]

PLEASE talk sequel if you have any stray thoughts or feelings or tidbits about it sdjsjdjsjffjsjs i’d somehow forgotten there was one planned and at the mere anon mention of harley angst i gotta know more 😩🙏🏽

OOOOH MY GOD I HAVE SO MANY THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS AND TIDBITS ABOUT THE SEQUEL!!!

i’ll do the spoiler tag and put it under the cut like usual but like, i have four main fics planned for this series as well as a couple one shots that i’m gonna throw in here and there, i know i can be slow to update sometimes but i have SOOO much planned and so many ideas for this series yall holy shit

okay anyway, sequel spoilers below!!

-

-

okay so the sequel introduces harley’s pov!! the entire first chapter is basically a recap of the first fic from harley’s perspective as well as a lot of background for him, like his sister and his mom and how he handles tony’s death and stuff. it starts on the day of the infinity war snap, where harley is snapped away, so the opening line of the chapter is this:

Harley Keener’s worst nightmare comes true.

He dies in Rose Hill, Tennessee.

this first fic has been PETER’S story post nwh, right? so the sequel is peter AND HARLEY’s story post the first fic, and then the third fic will introduce the rest of the spidey squad’s pov’s which will carry into the last fic!!

the sequel’s title changed from my original idea, also, so now the sequel is gonna be called:

darling, won’t you take me home?

and the description lyrics are gonna be:

you’re the song on the radio i never play

you’re the words in my soul that i wanna say

from this song!!

a couple things i’ll also share real quick

ned, mj, and flash play roles in the sequel

more of tony’s influence—esp the presence of happy and rhodey and pepper and morgan. they may not remember peter but they DO know harley and try to check up on him

protective harley to the point of maybe going too far sometimes. lots of big emotions to juggle.

harry angst rises, will become much bigger in third fic

there’s a one shot that i’m planning to post before the first chapter of the sequel that centers around peter’s birthday

lots of harley’s internal dialogue making it clear that he’s pretty good at keeping his composure even when he is mentally flipping shit (i.e. he kept his cool when peter confirmed the existence of the multiverse but hasnt stopped thinking about it since)

gwen being SO badass and also dumb lesbian representation who is also struggling with thinking she might not be a good friend

did i mention harley and some lowkey anger problems? (:

i have SO MANY other things i wanna say but im trying to get chapter 17 wrapped up and i am maybe technically at work rn lmao, so i’ll stop, but the spoiler tag has a lot of stuff that i’ve mentioned and once i’m home in like 6/7 hours i will also happily ramble about it more pfjfj

[mushiewrites]

hi hi what about red and ghost of you <3333 I wonder what could've inspired things like those ones <3333 hehehehe

- cal :))

from this milestone post / red / ghost of you

"I wonder what could've inspired things like those ones" you are so so soooo lucky I adore you 🙄

SO I wrote Red originally just for me and cal back in November - I never actually planned on posting it because at the time I was still iffy with feet tks and I also thought it was a little too intense (which is laughable now considering what I've posted since then). BUT I wound up posting it in december and I dont regret it at all, bc it allowed me to post even more intense things and get comfy with feet tks now :D

I wouldn't say it was self indulgent exactly, but I put things in there that I related to or had maybe even experienced, and also I was testing out writing intense things, because at that time I had only done it a handful of times. I also wanted to write a certain spot that maybe is flustering to a few people and this was a chance to do that and explore the reactions to that 🫠

Im almost positive cal and I brainrotted a bit about this? but I cant look through our messages around that time for reasons, hope this helps! :D

like I said in the tags on that fic - puppyduo stays together and suffers together <3

- - - - - - -

for Ghost of You....okay. look. it was based off of this concept of mine about dream being teased to the point he's giggling and blushing and doing lil kickies

I honestly just wanted to explore the idea of someone being flustered out of their mind and I wanted to write lee!dream bc even though he's shy, I know he leans into the feeling and loves it so so much. I wanted to write a lee I knew would enjoy it 100%, and that for me is always gonna be my dreamie 🥺

there's not a lot of other reasons I wrote it, I just wanted to write a solo thing, just focusing on the feeling and the flusteredness and the thoughts that come with it!

it is absolutely NOT anything I ever do and anyone who thinks otherwise is incorrect and wrong and dumb <3 thank you for coming to my ted talk <3

[kiwibirdlafayette]

(this is so dumb, but your newest art reminded me of this convo. love to hear more about mianite pete if you’ve got more lore bits btw!!)

LMIUDUYDEGFB OMG YES canon now. this is canon it was foreshadowing all along I cannot believe this it is not dumb at all m8 im CACKLING

as for lore tidbits 👀 i gotchu i needed an excuse to infodump hehee

Pete began life as a sentient humanoid slime entity, think like cSlimecicle in DSMP where he just kind of learned from observing the champions around him and he gets pretty damn good at a lot of things

When the peeps go to Ruxomar in S2, Pete sort of emerges from the ground and is found by Mianite, who is impressed with his knowledge of stuff from survival to mechanics/tech, and grants him with a similar power to what FyreUK got from Athar, making him a funky little wizard

so he's sort of a mianitee as well bc from what ive learned from the cPete enjoyers is that he values fairness and rules, or basically the facets of order

His skin is like a combination of human and slime, so hes not like perpetually slimy but he's very bouncy (think like perma jump boost)

I like the idea of all wizards in Mianite drawing their magic from the essence of something out of nature (Firez has magma, KillerTom shadows, Brute maybe the sunlight, Wag is plasma/star matter), so in Pete's case, its the swamp biome, like mushrooms, swampland foliage, etc. Fits bc swamp is overworld, which is Mia's domain

Part of his abilities include the ability to procure slimeballs without his wizard powers, good for redstoners bc boom instant sticky piston

he mostly uses his wizard powers for tech related builds moreso then big structures which is how him and Gaines get along so well

his house is filled with a bunch of little slime cubes, whom are all his helpers (mayhaps the Jerrys jordan saw in mianite S1?)

It feels like it would make the most sense for this Pete and the Pete in VH to exist as separate versions of the character (also because I already like the VHPete backstory and design I made a month or so ago) and that could be even funnier if there was a X33n variant in the S1 Mianite universe as well with another name (as its supposed to be Gaines as the X33n in VH) and he technically befriends two multiversal versions of the same guy because I could see him and Gaines gettin along if they hung out. I could also see him being friends with Rupert, who seemed like he was the weapons/tech expert on Capsize's crew, Pete could find some cool way of reinventing somethin im willin to bet

And kind of on the flip side off my tags in the original post, another interpretation of his character could be to put him exclusively in Aitheaca as Wag and Steve's alt in that universe with the same sort of backstory (where Mianite still gave him his powers, but he'd be closer to William and Merina) and powers, but instead of being a more passive figure who's just here to do his own thing and be a god at stuff, is like a Gaines figure to Mianite helping the cause against Ianite and Flash- idk, nothing's really set it stone of course

But yee that's what I've got so far!

[compacflt]

hey i just wanted to thank you so much for all of WIP Wednesdays and other insights into your writing process (from tags to answering asks) that you've posted so far. i'm a huge fan of wwgattai and debriefing, and everything new that you post is so wonderful. the amount of work that you've put into this is astounding, and the results (from what i've been able to read and otherwise glean so far) are incredible. all of this to say - i love your writing, i love to hear about the writing process and your thoughts on the characters and the universe. it's really special to be able to read and follow along, so thank you so much

(also i have not ever had a fic alter my brain chemistry the way that this has. the fic has had me in its tractor beam since october - literally cannot stop thinking about it, truly some amazing stuff)

ugh this ask means so much to me, thank you. i could talk about the process for this fic for literal years, mostly because it is the bane of my actual existence!!!!!! i was not supposed to care about this series at all!!! ‘when we get around to talking about it’ was originally just a 10k one-shot bouncing back and forth between charlie & ice’s povs as they try to figure out their equally extremely fraught and difficult relationships with maverick. the “we” in the title was supposed to be mav and charlie! it was originally more about mav’s relationship with women than it was about ice’s relationship with men—obviously that idea didn’t pan out! (it’s why there’s so much residual sexism in the story actually, i was originally trying to highlight the differences between ice & charlie as men and women… mav’s sexism in the original top gun is my least favorite thing about that movie and it really stuck with me) & ‘debriefing’ started out as just extra dumb little one-shots that didn’t make it into wwgattai (specifically just venice & the smoking weed scene) with no connective tissue whatsoever to the original fic. like. both fics were written out of order and without an outline, which… is why trying to fix their gigantic structural issues is such a bitch for me right now.

i can trace back every problem im having with the story back to one (1) day (august 14th) when i wrote both wwgattai chapters 7 and 8 without planning or thinking about the consequences of certain actions. i don’t want to get too deep in the weeds but there are so many mistakes i made that day that ive been paying for for months (for instance, the factual inaccuracy of ice & mav’s fucked-up ranks, the soft squishy landing of pulling roosters papers, CHOOSING TO MAKE ICE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT [because i hadn’t seen TGM for two months at that point & forgot what happened in the movie], not actually going into what it means for ice to be at the top of the american war machine, not bothering to ask how it’s even possible that one motherfucker can be this far up his own ass for thirty fucking years…) idk. like, when i wrote 90% of this fic i didn’t care about it, but now i… really do. idk why, but i really do. and im paying for the mistakes i made when i didn’t. which is why the edit is taking so long.

but stuff like this keeps me going :’) thank you <3

[mejomonster]

i know we’ve never talked but i saw your tags on the post about writing and i just wanted to say that even if you never finish anything, it’s admirable that you do anything with them at all, and that i hope one day you’ll be able to finish something and experience that joy :)

💜💜💜💜💜💜 ;-; thank you for these words!

I really hope to finish a story first draft by the end of the year, or soon after that. Even if its only a draft and that dumb annoying perfectionist voice pipes up and tries to insist it needs to be scrapped or rewritten or whatever annoying thought, im going to be so excited to have something done at least. A first draft i can point to and be like:wow, wooh! I am holding my own story in my hand and i can forget the plot and still pick it up and read it in a few years and how cool that is! How much it makes my chest ache with warmth!

But also, even if i finish no draft this year, i started at least! I wrote 100,000+ words of original stuff this year so at least the ideas are started, are somewhat put down, are pieces that exist now i can treasure and find later

Thank you again <3

[nanjokei]

you're one of the only people in this stupid as hell fandom willing to call out people for stating basic facts and acting like it's 'analysis' so that puts you above 99% of the rest of the idiots here lol

no but for real thats so scary bc my thought today was "well maybe i should loosen up a bit", i even posted some old fanart in the tag earlier, but i think after hearing all this i'll probably keep my engagement up to that much only...

i never really involved myself with these kinds of fandoms, free game fandoms are the worst genuinely. its to the point where i debated whether or not to include coe in my about... idr why i decided to but its so whatever anyway. i already learned the hard way when kimigashine got translated (god bless vg btw really hit it out of the park) that people are dumb (my exp with kimigashine is that i got into it early on into its original release so it is something dear to me). idk what i expected here, maybe because the story was a bit more niche and the content is less accessible it'd be a little better but it was decidedly WORSE. mortifying to say the least. i'm always telling friends that i hope it never gets translated properly but it seems like even with what is available already there is no hope. might as well start praying for vg to pick it up one day right now. like im even kneeling

but to think the standard is so low. there's a whole world out there that i didn't even know about

Okay so the latest happenings on twitter are Good and fucking Funny actually so. Heres an update to my Tumblr Enjoyers

Ppl attempted to make a Different subtwt that was like. Supposed to be sleepy bois but Without Techno. Some 'defenses' was that having a subtwt for phil wilbur and tommy was Fine and Not something bad cuz Ofc thetes subtwts for other parts of sbi. But it was originally formed with the INTENT of having 'sleepy boys without techno' and exclusing him like. Oldest tweet mentioning it was exactly that shit.

Anyways. They called it #coraltwt because of a funny convo phil, wilbur and tommy had bout phil placin coral around.

But. Yknow what us Techno Enjoyers fucking did? Like ofc ppl were pissed or upset w it cuz thats Dumb or whatever. But usually ill even say that leads to jus ppl spaming or putting angry shit which can be used as fuel yknow. A whole 'youre attacking us' things. Fire w fire.

BUT. PEOPLE ARE NOW SPREADING AWARENESS ABOUT COASTAL ENVIRONMENTS AND CORAL REEFS.

Which like it is SO COOL ACTUALLY like regardless if it was original out of 'spiteful' means. It Is called coraltwt. And now people are just genuinely showing pictures and talkin bout fish and its jus interesting all in all? There's a LOT of petitions

and even some artists have done a mini Event where they do a lil drawing if u donate a few bucks to coral.org. and its ACTUALLY GOTTEN TRACTION. Multiple joined in and their getting past 400 bucks now. It only started today i think

Even a genuine nonforprofit restoration organization posted with the tag

Basically like. This Coraltwt was formed wkth the intent of excluding technoblade from sbi, which was inherently with malicious intentions and people wanting sleepytwt to die out. But considerinh it was literally called Coraltwt ppl have just been using it as information and spreading awareness. Its actually really cool. Im gonna post about aboriginal cultivation practices along the BC coast and in australia because aboriginal traditions is somethin im personally passionate about and you cant talk bout nature without aboriginal people gsksvxhd

Theres been some people all 'this is performative youre just angry that we're holding ur whiteboy accountable' but even IF it was started more spiteful. Like this kind of 'drama' has actually been positive and Done Something and had a good impact.

[sakebytheriver]

Saw your huntlow post and just wanted to say THANK YOU!!! The way a certain portion of the fandom has been treating the ship has been a mixture of hilarious and frustrating to me (Though not surprising. Just look at the stranger things fandom) I’m not plus size or a person of colour but I’ve noticed that behaviour and similar patterns in so many other fandoms it’s honestly kinda concerning. There’s a lot to unpack about why the fandom is rejecting the ship but you definitely covered a fair amount of it. Again just wanted to say thank you for expressing coherently what I have noticed no just in the owl House fandom but multiple fandoms 👍

Hey anon, I'm glad my post was able to put your own thoughts into words coherently. I've been noticing a lot of white favoritsm from the toh fandom since day one and I've been calling it out on this blog a lot too, I think it's even gotten me blocked by some big wigs in this fandom. It's not exactly a surprise to me that Willow and Gus basically disappeared from the fandoms content the second Amity, Hunter, and the Blight twins showed up, but I wish they'd be more self aware about what they're doing, like they've gotta know they're not being original when they focus on the white side characters in the show. And it's just so annoying that if all your interaction with the show comes from what you see from the fandom you wouldn't even know Luz is the main character or who Willow and Gus even are, I once had someone tell me they didn't even know Luz was the main character because the fandom content made them think she was the love interest and Amity was the main character. They literally told me they hadn't been wanting to watch the show because of that too and once I told them it was Luz's show not Amity's they were gonna watch it. I just wish it wasn't so predictable, that it wasn't such a cliche and that anytime there's a ship with a woc the ship's supporters didn't also have to act as the character's protection squad. I've had many many interracial ships between a white guy and a woc and every time I have to sift through all of the racist bullshit in the ship tag just to get the content I want to see, I just wish I could exist in fandom spaces with the same ease as these stans that create gay crack ships between cute skinny white boys. Like it's so interesting to me how everybody was so perfectly happy to put poor traumatized little Hunter into romantic relationships and scenarios with the pretty and popular (and white) Blight twins, but when the show itself decided to make Willow his potential love interest instead the whole fandom decided that they would rather Hunter stay single and that he's too traumatized to be ready for a romantic relationship and yatta yatta yatta it's just all a bunch of cover for the fact that they're mad they're ship isn't gonna be canon and that their favorite little white boy poor little meow meow is interested in a fat woc instead of the other cute mischief white boy they wanted him to be into instead.

Can you tell I'm a bitter bitch who's been stuck in fandom spaces for many years and has been burned over and over again by racists in my ship tags yet?

I just don't get why people can't keep their mouths shut and not post their anti shit in the ship tag, like bitch I promise everyone in this ship tag has heard your dumb arguments over and over again we don't come into this tag to see your hate, we come into this tag to see our ship just like everybody else. So to the Huntlow antis shut the fuck up and if you absolutely must post your ship hate keep it out of the goddamn tag, I promise you its super duper easy to type #anti-huntlow it's just as easy as typing #huntlow I swear, it really won't cost you too much time, but you didn't wanna do that, you wanted the attention from the shippers, you wanted to make them upset, you purposefully did this because you wanted to. I've seen antis in the tag be like "if you don't like my post or your upset im being an anti in the tag you can just scroll past" and it's like bitch you coulda just done that too, you could have stayed the fuck out of the tag you know is going to be populated with people who don't agree with you, like you're the one coming into the business meeting with big shoes and a red nose on and asking everyone in suits to act like you aren't a clown, shut up and get out of our tag, if you don't like the ship well then it's not for you bitch. Anyways here are my final thoughts on the Huntlow antis
