   thank you @oceansinmychest !! ♡

   3. who is your favourite final girl?

    answered here!

   10. most underrated slasher movie in your opinion?

   i think jeepers creepers gets overlooked a lot because of who the director is (here’s some information on it for those who don’t know; major tw for p*dophilia & CSA, there’s some heavy shit in this thread so please proceed with caution if you click on it), which i do understand. you don’t want to financially support a piece of subhuman feces, and you shouldn’t! but jeepers creepers 1 & 2 were released almost 20 years ago, so there are a lot of resources online that allow you to watch them for free; he won’t get a dime from it. though i’m cautious of some of the subtext in these films for obvious reasons, there were a lot of good put into them completely unrelated to the director. i’ll list them in bullet points below.

the creeper’s design is fucking awesome. even better is that he wasn’t just randomly thrown together to look scary - his appearance actually makes sense from a biological standpoint! my friend @antlercrack is a good person to talk to about that; he loves the character as much as i do and has done a bunch of analysis on him.

speaking of gay shit, the first two movies are full of it. here are three very good articles on the subject.

the first two films are almost completely devoid of heterosexual romance. JC1 revolves around the relationship between two siblings and the sequel revolves around a fairly diverse group of students trying to survive the night. the only real het relationship is a toxic one featured in JC2 and we are not meant to like the guy.

continuing off of my previous point, jeepers creepers 2 addresses issues like racism & homophobia in a very real way. even better: the racist homophobic jock gets the axe & all the POC & gay-coded characters survive!

the male lead in JC1 is heavily implied to be gay & the female lead’s sexuality is never revealed. it’s mentioned she had a recent boyfriend, but the relationship did not go well.

speaking of the characters - you actually give a shit about most of them & they have endearing personalities, especially the jenner siblings! you don’t want to see anything happen to them!!!

the women are not reduced to their bodies!!! they all stand out from each other!!!

the creeper himself does not speak, but he’s still full of personality! see this clip as one of my favourite examples. wish he got some more love from horror fans!

the crew put 110% into those special effects & they still hold up really well!

the score of the first two films are fucking incredible & thrilling and you can listen to them both on spotify!

there are comics available to read online that explain the creeper’s origins! they gave his character a lot more nuance... and they’re explicitly gay! he is gay!!!

just skip the third one btw it’s. not worth your time. we don’t talk about JC3 in this house

   24. shout out some creators in the slasher fandom that you love!

   sure thing!

@antlercrack: my best friend of nearly 3 years, frequent fanfic collaborator & rp buddy! obsessed with his art, cosplay & character analysis. also, his jokes have me fucking crying on at least a weekly basis.

@teensiest: super cute fanart & awesome makeup cosplays! it’s extremely uncanny how many common interests teensie & i share!

@rulerofpurple: has great takes on various pieces of horror media, tons of cool OCs & a brand new au rewriting the origins of billy & agnes from black christmas!

@masks-n-steel: absolutely in love with their jason design. so cute and full of personality!

@guljerry: has written some incredible fanfiction on freddy, jason & the sawyer family! possesses a grasp on these characters that i admire a lot!

@rotten-carcass: has a really nice, colourful art style & has drawn a number of my faves!

@stinkyfishystinky: super lively, fluid, distinctive art style! includes a ton of different body types in their work with a variety of different characters, including ones who don’t get the spotlight very often! also, their freddy is fucking adorable & one of my favourites in the fandom.

@psyducktheterrible: has come up with some insanely cool freddy concepts & has a ton of passion for his character!

@the-thot-clown: has drawn pretty much every horror character you can think of and always manages to capture their respective vibes & personalities perfectly. their blog features tons of different m/m and f/f ships, which i appreciate!

@45lampkinln: a+++ content. amazing art, amazing hcs and tons of cool canon divergence. absolutely wonderful world-building. i give this blog a lot of credit for helping me get back into slashers at the beginning of the year. it’s always a joy to see them active!

@kinrypu: their art style is just... chef’s kiss. i have a weakness for their drawings of robert englund especially!

hey idk if you’d know but all i want more than anything in the world is LM fics and i don’t know if they’re out there (or if there are fics that aren’t LM but the characters feel the same) because i can no longer think of the merlin characters as anything but the LM characters and fics that don’t match that make me sad now..... so if you know of any pls help a girl out and send them my way tysm

Hi! I’m not sure if I can recall there being any formal fanfic since the series ended (Footloose asked us not to until the series ended so that she wasn’t influenced by our works/there wasn’t any confusion where ideas came from/etc) - anyone who has any fics please tag them or reblog with them here because I also would love to read any! I know I like constantly talk about the old LM Kill WIP I’ve got in my drafts but yeah I still haven’t done anything with it.

On our Loaded March wiki we’ve got a fanworks page so it’s got some playlists, a fan song and fanart on there I think. We also have a DA page here.

These may not have been updated recently so if you are reading this and have any to add on please shout up/add them on there!

In terms of informal hcs etc, the LM Hive Mind tag goes back a fair way and has a lot of our old HCs on there (bumblebee balls anyone?) and more recently the HCs I’ve been aware of are of the Kay-and-Will-are-Bran’s-parents (see this beautiful fanart) variety or Next Gen. This is mostly because I am Kay Trash. Like you can search my blog for all of the LM characters by their LM name (e.g. Gwaine Taggart, Perceval Dane, Will Kendrick etc) but you will find next to nothing in Kay Lawhead and that is because I use the tag because Kay is perfection. I also use the tag Bran Killson for Bran because Bran becomes their kid and the ship name for Kay/Will we decided was Kill (tagged LM Kill because like...yeah). 

Actually thinking about it @clotpolesonly have you written any queerplatonic Kill? Like I know your hc about they get married to make things easier? I can’t find it though even in HC form!

Umm okay so I’ve tagged Jess, I’ll put this into both the Loaded March and LM Hive Mind tags, I’ll tag @kyupatatas and @almimighty too in case anyone has anything to add.

If anyone DOES write any LM fanfic, please tag it as idk Loaded March fic doesn’t seem to have anyone else using that tag?

Long version of saying, lots of hcs, not sure of formal fanfic but if there is for the LOVE OF GOD GIVE IT TO MEEEE
