#I'm also bothered by the ''don't write in the setting unless you follow all these rules'' while using fanfic language throughout the wiki

[dragongirluvula]

just found out about the hdg and I definitely don't vibe with it. It almost captures my interest but the hard stance opposition towards exploring the implications that come with a self designated benevolent empire that can solve the inherent problems that come from cultures who are supposedly inferior in some way by nature really like, both rubs me the wrong way and feels like a disservice to the setting itself.

idk just looking at every empire in history it's like, that's literally what they all say and how they justify colonizing others. It's kinda really fucking hard to just take at face value. If imperialist colonizers who just happen to be legimately nicies to the people they colonize is like, ur thing then absolutely jack off to it I'm not here to judge that, just like, own that I guess? But if your argument for them is just that narratively speaking it's just true then my interest in your setting, horny or otherwise just does not exist.

The contradiction of the setting also bothers me, 25-45% of any given species will be domesticated on average but the space between that and rebellion just doesn't seem to be accounted for in the wiki, what is the life of someone not opposed to the empire but also who doesn't volunteer for domestication? How much of their own cultures are retained within the empire? It really seems like the only option for any autonomy in the setting is rebellion but that's also only ever seen as a bad thing.

I just get caught on the whole "affini are imperial" and "affini are benevolent" thing in the axioms section of the hdg wiki. My mixed race ass cannot really look at an invading empire calling itself the good guys without my own personal baggage about it weighing in, ya'feel?

sellie bee! for your game > touya + flicker?? (if you feel comfortable writing for him again, your touya from the shoto fic was so beloved to me) 💕

amber!! thanks for sending in a lil prompty 🥺 ofc i would write him again!! for you!! anything!!! 🥺 my touya from that fic is also so dear to me 🥺 i'm glad you like that little guy 🥺

help me get back into the writing groove! send me a character + any word and i'll write a short blurb about it!

contains: non-canon au, childhood friends

touya + flicker

there's a light by your bedside, one that flickers when its loose wire finds itself tangled around the leg of your bed frame. it doesn't happen all the time, but it's always bothered touya, ever since you were kids.

"fuyumi says that when lights go on and off like that they can go boom," he mimics an explosion with his hands, not quite knowing the term for it yet at 5.

(when you recall the memory, you realize that he must have meant a spark, not the flickering of lights.)

it bothers him so much that he figures out a way to fix it by age 10. he uses a small claw clip, a translucent gray plastic you've seen on his mother many times before. he clips the wire to your bed frame that way, keeping it in place.

it's a bandaid solution, because time creates cracks on the plastic, the metal spring falling apart despite being fused at the hinges.

(and again, looking back, you should have noticed that time had left its mark on touya the same way.)

the light flickers again.

"you'll have shitty eyes if you don't change it," he moves the wire aside until it stops. at 15, touya's become jaded. what once was a twinkling set of aquamarine is now a dull pair of teal, staring straight at you as he speaks.

you know it has something to do with his family, but you don't ask unless he talks about it.

(in hindsight, maybe you should've. because when touya runs away from home the following year, you only catch glimpses of him in the next ten years.)

he visits you at 17, taller and dressed darker than what you're used to. his hair is dyed a jet black, a few cuts and bruises scattering the expanse of his arms. he sees that your light is still flickering and fixes it like muscle memory, not once acknowledging the fact that it's been two years since he's seen you last.

"you can stay with me," you offer him, desperately.

he gives you a wry smile, "can i?"

and you know it's not really a question. you'll be heading off to college soon; there's no real place where you can keep him.

when you move into your dorm in the first year of uni, you leave your lamp behind but find that the lights in your shared bathroom flicker just as bad. it makes you think of him, in the lonely hours especially.

you're surprised when you bump into him at age 20, near campus, barely recognizing him at all. for a brief moment, you see the same shock mirrored on his face, but it disappears when you blink, and when you say his name, "touya—"

"dabi," he corrects you.

it's at 22, when you move into your own apartment and bring the same light from your childhood bedroom, that you find your thoughts floating back to him once more.

you offered right before graduating, the last time you saw him―told him you'd be moving into a new place and he could stay with you there. no one would know about it, no one would bother him.

but touya is a flight risk, appearing in and out of your life like the flickering of your bedside light. you outstretch your hand and he bats it away instinctively, withdrawing from you until he feels like you won't bring it up again.

you do though, every time. the next year, the year after that, when you're both 25. you look for him more consciously now, finding that he's always somehow nearby―by the potted flowers on your windowsill that remain alive despite week-long work trips; by paid for cups of coffee in cafes, the doors whooshing shut as you look for who it could possibly be from.

you've known touya for almost all of your life, and giving up on him isn't an option at all. your heart can't take it, the same way you can't bring yourself to fix your bedside light, its flickering an odd source of hope that he might one day be so fed up, he'll have to come and fix it himself.

and then he'd have to stay―to keep the flickering at bay. to keep the light working. one day.

would you mind sharing ur process of how you come up with so many npcs for your units 👉👈 like what you prioritize first about them or some ways you know what traits might fit best to contrast/compliment the main cast w/o overshadowing them too much?

Silly answer: they posses my family and then hold me on the gunpoint until I write them into the story

Serious answer: I mainly go out of the what role I want someone to fill in the story (so no role - no side character necessary), and if that role can be filled by any other main character or already existing npc, I don't bother coming up with anything new.

I'm an adherent to "every word should move the plot" motto in a non-pretentious way, so while creating more ocs is always very fun (regardless of pc/npc character categories in pjsk ocs, they're still all ocs at the end of the day), there are a lot of them I know will never be important or make the cut to appear at all.

More under the cut because I go on a tirade;

In general even just explaining how I do it is kind of difficult because my mind is a dumpster fire of ideas, but I try to follow at least some rules that I think can be handy, so here:

1. Less is more. This is re: how to not make npcs overshadow your main characters. I will say that... it'll likely happen anyway because readers have favourite tropes and clichés that your main characters will not necessarily always click with. It's not a bad thing. But in general in order for readers to like both of the characters the amount you're aiming to, don't reveal too many details or too much backstory for the NPC. Make their story noticeable and important enough, but don't lean into it too much. Readers feel closer to the character because of the detail and nuance they know about them, their history; this level of attachment will probably not happen to npcs that don't reveal much about themselves. Instead it creates some level of freedom to hc and projection lol.

I'm going to say you yourself should probably not get too into writing an npc, but that's a difficult task.

Also sometimes you want readers to get attached and the npcs to outshine the pc (or at least be at the same level) for story purposes. E.g: Nagi Kosaki. Just evaluate what is it you want.

2. Don't oversaturate your cast. In the spirit of previous advice, if a role in the story can be filled with already existing character, don't go ahead and make a new one, especially if they're just gonna leave after two scenes. Forging closer bonds with the characters we're already familiar with > new cool toy. It's also hard to keep up with huge casts of characters (as much as I love them).

3. Don't be afraid to make them too similar. By all means give even your narrative foils mannerisms and things that set them apart, but if your reader can at a glance say "ooh they're narrative foils" and be correct, that's a good thing. Pat the character on the head. Narrative context that's immediately apparent to some category of readers that purposely put effort into looking for that sort of thing is as good a sign as any. You're not being a high-fiction writer here (unless you are and I'm the absolute wrong person to give advice for that), embrace the inherent simplicity of visual novel-like storytelling and relish in it. I've seen people backtrack in making characters because "it's too obvious" and it's kinda sad.

I think this is all I can say in terms ot general advice. I think the need to create NPCs, and their amount, varies too much on the stories for me to go and say "do this when you need to achieve this, but don't do y unless you need to do x". See: WxS story will not be as effective without their huge supporting cast, but we barely even have any npcs for N25 story, usually only 2 per character or so, and they're fine. They don't need a huge supporting cast because of what their story and character development is. Hell, Suzuka's parents literally don't even have personalities because they're not important to her story.

But overall I think the distinction between pc/npc in like, our specific genre, is kind of scary. You should still enjoy the process of making and writing those characters, even if they're a one-off appearance. Treat them as people of their own who just happened to brush shoulders with the Important character on their both ways to growth, I think is the gist of it.

Hi ^.^ same Anon who sent the willingly going with Link ask. I'm glad you liked it! I'm a bit of a sucker for the softer yanderes who try and curb their tendencies for their Darlings too lol.

Would you mind too terribly if I asked a follow up question?

Mostly curious about how Link would handle it if you (reader) quite literally are the type to not want to talk to strangers unless it can't be helped. The type who would literally fall right into all of his categories of 'safe' to not leave tied up somewhere. Only here's the catch- also a little bit manipulative with the knowledge of his yandere-ness? Like... Aware he views most people interacting with you as a threat of you possibly leaving so you do things like sit in his lap and play with his hair while talking to the other person. He's still getting attention but you're also still talking to someone whenever you actually need to talk to someone.

Link getting constant verbal praise and being told you don't plan on leaving him so he can just keep calm (and carry on lol).

Something of a sort of working together to curb those tendencies sort of deal? He tries his hardest to not be unfair since you were so willing to go with him but at the same time you know some things won't ever change really and try and accommodate/keep him calm in certain situations. You're stuck with him so you may as well make it as comfortable as you can right?

How would he handle that? Would he ever catch on that that's what you're doing? Would he approve of it or be less trusting of you after he finds out you're doing it to help keep him placated?

Sorry for bothering you by the way I just really like your version of yandere Link ^.^

Sorry for taking so long to answer this I lost the will to write for a long time. Still, I'm here now and this man still lives rent free in my head. I love the idea of both hard yanderes and soft yanderes and I think several different Links fall on different parts of the scale. I may talk about the chain and that au as a whole here soon but that's a lot for right now.

What to do with himself. It was the rollercoaster of emotions Link hated the most. Taking time to himself and figuring out who he was when alone wasn't the issue. The hero could deal with working on himself as a person. Rather it was the up and downs his heart sent him on. No regular person knew or talked about love like this. Even the most recent and tame feelings felt like he was at his core wrong. 

You assured him you didn't mind his actions and that he was ok but no matter how many sweet words you offered when you left to go to town this morning he had to leave the house to not be driven mad. It was a genuine struggle not to follow you out to the market. Sure hiding in the boring alleys wasn't the best way to spend his time, but it would be time spent with you. Sort of. Not really. It didn't have the same effect.

So he bit his tongue, nodded, and took a walk. Wallowing in the troubled waters of his own emotions. Taking deep breaths and listening to the sounds of nature to ground himself. You never intentionally spent so long away from him. Something just didn't feel right not having you by his side. He was bleeding from a wound he never knew he had until you walked away.

Which was the issue. You rarely left his side. Rare occurrences could be forgiven but what was he to do with the emotions? Link sighed and struggled to figure out if an honest traditional relationship was good for him or not. Monsters could kill you. Nightmares of your death plagued his mind. Even as he made his way back home he could only remind himself of your might and that the world wasn't as bad as he thought.

It felt like a curse was lifted when he opened the front door to see you standing in the kitchen chopping vegetables. He grinned from ear to ear as he watched you cut the food and add it to the pot. He moved around you and set a pot of water to boil for tea. Something to help calm his nerves. You placed a kiss on each cheek and it reminded him why he was so in love with you to begin with.

This has been the longest he's gone without acting on his impulses since he first met you. It was both rewarding and daunting. Each time his feelings came up they got harder and harder to ignore. What if you realized how strange he was and really did leave? This line of reasoning only made it harder to calm himself.

Yet that wasn't an issue when he was with you. The fear just sort of dissipated as he settled by your side as you worked the knife back and forth. Talking was never Link’s strong suit and he loved not having to talk around you. Somehow you always knew what it was that was on his mind. Like clockwork you moved over to him and placed your head on his shoulder. Releasing him of whatever weight had settled on his shoulders.

The old problem with familiarity, he couldn't go back to the way it was before. You tw knew each other too well. This was just proof that he was meant to be with you. He would stay good if only he could have a hundred more moments like these. 

Then came a voice. A small cynical thought that rocked the calm waters of his mind.

If we take them then we never have to worry. If we mark them before they have a chance to leave we never have to worry. He sighed audibly. You leaned against him. Right on cue there you were. Making him feel almost cheesy. You reacted to the stress that you saw on him, and it almost relaxed him again. A voice shook him in horror; if we seem distressed we can get more affection.

He shook his head. This was insane!

Your hand went to touch his cheek and he moved away. Checking the pot by the stove instead. Busying himself with the thought of tea. Maybe if you didn't touch him you wouldn't be stained as well.  For once his heart existed outside his body. It was amazing and terrifying. Something to be experienced with care, not to treat like a toy.

.

.

.

a little snippet below that I wrote almost as an outline for what was above;

I can see Link being the type to both love and hate the feeling of being manipulated. It depends on your reasoning for it. It can't be helped; he plans for the worst and expects the best. Years of training tells him that he needs to be on the safe side, and his heart says you're too good to lose. The leash stays tight until he can be sure.

It isn't until you talk with him he feels bad. He knows these feelings can't be helped and it isn't his fault. You brush the worst parts of him aside and love him regardless, willingly, and without hesitation. And there he goes slipping into the idea you can't feel afraid of him. He takes your hands into his and apologizes to you. Asking if there's any way you can forgive him for being so abrasive.

Time passes and the two of you work together. it gets to the point that he doesn't mind it as much. Bit by bit he finds himself slipping. Longer walks, more time you spend is away from his eyes, and the actions taken by you all show him he’s safe. He worries but he starts to find himself worrying a little less. 

So he does nothing but express concern with his eyes and holds you close. Each word cuts close to his heart and he can't help it. You're just so… out there for him. He's never lost someone so close and not paid for it dearly. He will lose you one day, but not today. It could never be today.

Rules

Mun is 40+ and will not interact with minors. If it’s not clear in your rules how old you are or if I even suspect you are under aged, I will block you.

People who Kin their characters DNI

Minors DNI

Pedophiles, Racists, Bigots, Homophobes, Transphobes, assholes and creeps DNI

non-roleplaying blogs DNI (unless you are a mutual)

I'm only interacting with mutuals.

I do not have exclusives or mains. Everyone will be treated equally here.

Please reblog and like from the source. It’s okay to like my own RP threads just don’t reblog them if you are not a part of them. If you do this, I will have to block you as I assume you haven't bothered to read my rules. I am not a meme farm/art farm for you. However, if I tag you in art or anything you can like and reblog from me since that's my invitation to share with you.

I try my best to remember people's rules but please keep in mind I am human and can forget certain things, especially if it's specific. Please feel free to remind me or if you really need to unfollow be my guest. We all need our safe spaces.

I do have a job so my answers to threads may take time. It also depends on my muse. That being said, I will not be responding at snail speed. I try to answer within 2 weeks max. in turn if you take months to reply to me, I honestly don't think this will work. My muse needs to stay fresh and months after a thread is posted is not going to work for me. If you're taking a month to answer a reply I doubt there is interest in the thread anyhow.

I limit the amount of threads per partner at least 2 each to help with the amount of drafts that pile up. I will not be piling up drafts again.

If we are following each other and I am attempting to RP with you a few times, and you keep dropping or ignoring it, I’m going to assume you don’t have interest and I will soft block you. There’s no point in following each other if you choose to not interact with me. I’m here to interact, not to watch you interact with others.

I don't mind Dashboard shinanigans but I prefer to keep focus on threads owe and not creating more then I already have, because of this I won't be participating in dashboard commentary as often as I have.

I will not be participating in 'events'. I find these to be highly annoying and only cause drafts/muses to be ignored.

I do get duplicate anxiety. I don't mind other duplicates in general but keep in mind if you're constantly ignoring me for others of the same muse, we will not work out.

If I follow you and you do not follow back after a few days, I will assume you're not interested and will unfollow you. If you follow me and I don't follow back after a few days, I may not be interested in Rping with you. Sometimes certain muses do not catch my interest. It's perfectly fine to unfollow me.

My writing can vary depending on who I’m rping with. I can write short and paragraph style format. It will also depend on how much inspiration I have for the thread.

I’m open to multiship but I will warn you I lean more towards M/M then F/M.

Very very selective with OCs (I'll only accept OC's from close mutuals or if I so happen to like your OC I'll be following you). I'm not interacting with characters outside the Hazbin Hotel universe. Fan kids are fine though or angels. I will also interact with Helluva boss characters because I consider them part of the same verse.

I have no major triggers.

There will be sexual themes on this blog. I do not care if Alastor is Ace/Aromantic on the show. That's not how I play him here. Please do not hash that up with me. I'm here to have fun. That being said I'm not just looking for PWP there needs to be chemistry and some kind of buildup unless they are already in a relationship.

Alastor is not part of any set universe but can be multiverse if I have multiships. Multiships will be part of their own verse. Alastor will not be cheating unless it is plotted out by muns. 

Please no godmodding. there are only a very few that I trust to lead Alastor in certain situations but anything else that’s major needs to be talked with the mun first. 

I do not ship Alastor/Charlie (radioBelle), Alastor/Rosie, Alastor/Nifty Alastor/Husk (I tried this, just not for me)

Any hate/drama at all will be ignored and blocked.

I am not a grammar Nazi by any means, but if you respond back and I can barely understand what's being said, I don't think we will work out as rp partners.

Alastor is a cannibal and serial killer so there will be gore, blood, violence and all that applies.

I have the right to block whoever I want without explanation. However, if you are someone that I have been rping with for a while I would obviously reach out if there was something wrong.

I am open now to RP on discord if this is your preference. (I actually would prefer discord as I've been enjoying it so far)

[inflamearc]

okay, i may or may not commit to a Real Reboot (i made the blog but it's not flowing). but here is what i am definitely committing to:

i am no longer going to remove laura from twin peaks (canon, not necessarily town). i WILL write something up that will make this less potentially daunting to newcomers.

i am only going to focus on a few verses. other than the specific 'laura survives her injuries and goes on to Live A Life' timeline --- which is still our main priority --- they will all be canon-centric.

unless i am writing her as carrie page (which i enjoy greatly btw), she will probably still be a teenager. not definitely --- there are some storylines with other canons i still Want Here, and they may or may not end up being easier for the rest of you, too --- but i am wary of straying too far from The Narrative and my actual intentions with this blog. my main priority has always been, like, making laura Accessible To Everybody, but it just doesn't... work. like that.

relatedly, yeah, i am never gonna tag anything less liberally! and i hope that this is a safe space! but it might not be. and that's... okay, really, i think? finally? by which i mean, please take care of yourself. i don't mind if you're my best friend in the world and you don't want to follow this blog, or any blog. it will not hurt my feelings. it will not make you any less welcome anywhere else. you do not need to explain. i am extremely aware that my singles tend to be abject nightmares and i don't want to, like, spread them. that is not the goal.

laura is going to get a new cat.

i'm not going to say 'no shipping' but i am going to say it's probably only going to happen in texas unless you're writing one of those canons. because, frankly, she is kind of set. if her little fan club is there (grudging members or not) you can't compete with them. she loves her people so incredibly bad. and that is so important to understanding her

i am banging on the table asking moderately politely for asl threads. bonus points if i can pick the verse, but they are more than acceptable in any.

she's disabled. she has some ugly scars that she won't bother trying to hide. she's angry about these things and also about many other things. this has always been the case, but i have not been true enough to either of us, and i've kind of let it go unnoticed. i am sick of me god bless

assuming she is in twin peaks and not married --- which is not really a future plan for anything central here --- she will live with her mother in that godforsaken house. but they have the good halloween candy, if you're brave enough to go up there

Late night project || Draco Malfoy

Draco Malfoy x Female reader Previously written on my wattpad account but I rewrote it This is my first time writing a one-shot on here, any tips would be appreciated <3

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There's nothing better than a Saturday night when you're in your pajamas and enjoying the company of your fellow housemates. At least that's how you had wished to spend it.

You were sat in the Slytherin common room tapping your fingers on the desk lost in thought. It had recently come to your attention that there was a project that Professor Snape had set that was due on Monday morning. Luckily though it wasn't a solo project. In fact you had been paired with the ultimate drama king, who also happened to be your boyfriend, Draco Malfoy.

The both of you had come together in the early morning to prepare your project and still, you were sat working on it. In front of you laid many open books about centaurs, many pages of parchment laid around them from the notes that had been taken.

The day was finally dawning down on you, you were exhausted and it seemed that Draco was too. His eyes looked dull and tired, his mouth formed a slight pout and his hair had been messed up from his hand as he brushed it back in frustration. The notes he was making from the Centaur books were starting to look sloppy and his handwriting getting bigger and bigger.

You had no idea how either of you had managed to get this far in a day, but here you bother were.

Draco leaned back in his chair and smirked as he noticed your gaze on him, "Like what you see?". A small blush of embarrassment covered your cheeks as you snapped yourself from your thoughts.

You look at the Centaurs on the open page that was sat on the desk and hummed in response to his question, "Well, I always have had a thing for centaurs...", you lean forward and trace your fingers along the page while quickly glancing at Draco who seemed to roll his eyes.

He twirls the quill in his fingers before putting it down onto the desk, "I cant believe we've covered half of the topic already, by tomorrow we should have this finished...", He rubs his eyes tiredly and leans his head back on the chair, "What time is it?"

You move your long sleeve out the way to look at your watch.

A fond memory of Hermione slips into your mind as she brought you the watch for your birthday. You didn't think anyone knew it was your birthday. It was only when you entered the great hall were you surrounded by everyone wishing you a happy birthday.

You peer around the common room unaware of how silent it had gotten over the past few hours.

Where's the prefect?

"Drake, It's coming up to 1:30 in the morning. I don't understand how nobody told us to go bed...Have you seen the prefect at all?" Draco peers around the common room much like how you had done and looks back down at the project.

"You can go to bed if you'd like. I still owe you from the other week thanks to Potter." His words come out almost like venom from a snake at the mention of Harry.

You ponder for a moment before eyeing him curiously, "But then tomorrow I'd have to write up all your notes which would take me even longer while you'd be finished sooner...So that doesn't really work unless I stayed here and caught up with your notes currently."

He smiles, looking to the side of him before back at you, but he doesn't respond.

Instead he simply stares at you tiredly before gently holding your hand and moving to crouch in front of you. You follow his other hand with your eyes as he slowly tucks a piece of hair behind your ear. "Go to sleep, I'll catch up on it all for you as you're worried about it," You open your mouth to protest but he stands abruptly, "if you don't go to sleep then I'm going to bed myself and leaving you to do it on your own. Go sleep."

You huff at him and remove yourself from your chair before making your way to a nearby couch. You feel eyes on you as you take the cushions and move them to the end before you lie down, "I'll go sleep but I'm not leaving you on your own down here. Gotta protect you if a monster comes," she laughed to herself quietly, "Night Draco"

"Goodnight"

The top of the Malfoy's ears tint with a faint of red before turning around back to the desk. His heart fluttered as he thought about the girl behind him. He was lucky to have her yet he didn't or couldn't understand why she wanted to be with him, he didn't deserve someone so special. No matter the occasion she would make his days better, she never failed to help him regardless of the issue and yet he felt he hadn't done anything for her. He knew he was tough work, especially when it came down to his nemesis Harry Potter.

He sighed picking up the quill and looking over her papers. It wasn't the best handwriting but he liked it either way.

After sticking his head down for another hour or so, he finally retired from the project for the night. He collected all the papers they had used and put them to one side, moving the unused ones to the other side. The books remained open as they would be starting again when they both had awakened.

Draco walked to where his girlfriend lay and crouched to see her sleeping face. He slowly ran his finger ever so slightly down the side of her face, though it wasn't as warm as he'd hoped.

He carefully pulled the blanket down on her body and gently tucked it around her, followed by a small kiss to her forehead before sitting on the floor and leaning against the couch.

He looked at the large glass window that viewed into the lake and wondered if there would be another time as calm as this.

BYF. If you have zero content in your blog or you have no indicative that you are a real person, I will soft-block you. So please, put something in your bio / header / profile that lets me know you are an actual person.

REJECTION. I have a right to not answer your ask if it bothers me or if I do not agree with it. There will be dark content here, but there is also a line to cross. So if I do not answer your ask at all ( WITHIN THE SAME YEAR IT WAS SENT ), you know why. It is very rare that I do not answer an ask at all. If you are not sure whether Tumblr ate your ask or if I won't ever answer it, send it TWICE. If I don't answer still after two months, you know I have discarded your ask.

YANDERE. There will be yandere content in this blog, although it won't be all. I won't say whether it'll be the majority or not, I am merely stating that it will be present. If you are not comfortable with such topics, move on, and do not interact. Block the tag cranberry.ichor if you don't want to see yandere content of my blog.

ZERO SPOILERS. Do not give me spoilers regarding any series I list I am in, and if you are messaging me / sending an ask about a series unlisted, do not include spoilers. Unless I explicitly state otherwise, do not send anything that might be considered spoilers. With that set aside, feel free to discuss anything you like with me, whether it be ships, theories, or any particular headcanons you'd like for me to indulge in by writing for them.

GIVING A NUDGE. As I stated earlier, I don't follow a particular posting schedule, and as such, I will ask you don't rush me if you request anything. However, if a ridiculous amount of time has passed by (let's say, around 4 weeks or so) and I still have not published an ask you sent, feel free to nudge and ask if things are alright. As long as you're not nasty about it, I'm more than happy to give my reasoning for the time taken and why I'm not posting.

Narcos Fic Plagiarism

I don't know about any other writers, but I am sick and tired of seeing bits and pieces of my writing scattered through other people's work, especially when a) those people have never once bothered to interact with me or my fics, and b) their works get WAY more engagement than mine.

Below the cut, I've included some examples from the last year, although some are very recent and over the line for me.

I used to just ignore this kind of thing, but with the most recent ones I thought I would reach out privately to the writer and unsurprisingly, they denied all knowledge...and then did the exact same thing in another chapter posted just days later.

I know people can come up with the same ideas independently etc. and that's bound to happen when writing the same characters, but, the examples below go beyond that and there is often a pattern with serial offenders. One-offs can be ignored or passed off as coincidences, but when it's done multiple times? Come on now.

I'm sure this post won't stop those who are still determined to behave this way, although I would really urge you to do some soul searching and ask yourself why you do this, because it's not conducive to your own creativity or growth as a writer, let alone in the spirit of a fan community. But I'm asking you publicly now to PLEASE STOP IT.

I have reported some of these to AO3, but they don't seem to care unless it involves huge chunks of text, or is all copied exactly word for word, even though their website defines plagiarism as:

There's nothing wrong with being inspired by other writers in your fandom and giving them a mention in your fic notes. In fact, that's a good thing! Creatives should be inspired by others, I don't know why so many don't like to admit it. But there is a big difference between that and just taking without credit, and doing it multiple times is going to get you found out.

Bear in mind as well that this same fic included Día de Muertos from 18th September 2022, i.e. just 3 weeks after I shared a snippet of my fic in the main tags about the same subject. Again, I know I don't own ideas and in isolation, I would have just thought it's a coincidence, but not when combined with everything else here.

I've also got e-mails I've sent to myself (I do that a lot with my drafts) going back to early August 2022 where I was working on this idea (obviously I've erased my e-mail address from these screenshots):

And here's my Goodreads page that shows the date I read the book which inspired me to include Día de Muertos in the first place:

For anyone interested, the book is set in a Texas border town and follows a Mexican-American family. The main character gets married and her father-in-law starts to appear to her every Día de Muertos because he's trying to resolve conflict with his son that he never got to do when he was alive. Given that I was writing about...a Mexican-American from a Texas border town, it felt like perfect research lol.

EDITED TO ADD ANOTHER EXAMPLE:

SHIPPING INFO. Answer the following for your muse(s) so people know how shipping works on your blog.

What's your OTP for your muse(s)?

I think it's a little obvious that bkdk kind of takes a lot of precedent for me... But krbk is literally right on its heels, followed by kacchako. Those are my big three.

Realistically, I'm a shipper of Katsuki with happiness.

What are you willing to RP when it comes to shipping?

Barring my hard nos in my rules... Well, my strong preference lays in exploring the dynamic specific to two characters - I also THRIVE in re-exploring that dynamic in AUs, seeing how it might change in the absence or inclusion of certain factors. I love delving into the complexity of a bond and seeing how it fares against personal trials between two characters. I also love anything resulting in angst. Not at all contradicting my Katsuki + happiness thing...

How large does the age gap have to be to make it uncomfortable?

For Katsuki, anything outside of a year on each side irks me. That's because I focus very heavily on his high school years... In a Pro Hero setting, I'm not too inclined to alter that, even though I actually don't mind age gaps in general - I just ain't fucking with it when it comes to Katsuki.

Are you selective when shipping?

Honestly, yeah, quite a bit. I've admittedly explored multiple romantic dynamics of the same characters with different muns, and I found that I click better with some than others, and the way I envision a bond will be with a specific rendition. Like with Charlie's Kirishima! I have been shipping krbk with Charlie for so long and their Kiri is the only one that I can see writing a ship with. (Nothing against other Kiris ofc! I absolutely adore them - I'm just very attached to what Charlie and I have developed over the past few years on-and-off.)

Then bkdk is a special case in which I have two partners; Bella with her Izuku is deeply rooted in my main verse (and we've written bkdk since 2021, so it's a very fleshed out dynamic), while what I have with Pon's Izuku is specifically an AU that's been invested into with like... A 10+ year timeline attached to it.

Even if my partners aren't super active on Tumblr (which, lol, neither am I sometimes, so I'm not too bothered), I almost always have our ships in my mind. My selectivity is not because I don't want a specific ship - because I'm a multishipper and rarepair connoisseur, where I have recently discovered a small following for RodyBaku - but because I'm very established in some of the ships I have.

How far do steamy moments have to go before they’re considered NSFW?

Side eyes this question... Not very far. Besides, I'll never write even suggestive content here. It just feels so... Eugh. You get me?

Who are other muses you ship your muse with?

Do you want a list? Okay well say less.

Main ships: bkdk, krbk, kacchako.

Ships I really really enjoy: tdbk, monobaku, bakumina. izukacchako.

The rarer variety: bakumomo, bakujirou, rodybaku, bakuiida, bakukami, bakusero, shinbaku, setsugou... Very tentatively including bakutoga here.

Most of the ships I have down are more like, "oh, this would be a cute dynamic", but generally (very quickly) removed from canon context. They're also mostly ones I wouldn't think too hard about unless discussed with someone who is interested in exploring that specifically. Again, I'm just here for Katsuki having happiness.

Also very cool with canon x oc stuff, like my ship with Aleera's oc, Hana.

Does one have to ask to ship with you?

Please. Please do. I will be so dumb to suggested shipping context and I'm actually kind of really fucking dense, so my ass will not pick up subtle cues to bring up "oh hey, what if we ship this", UNLESS I've known you for a while... And sometimes not even that. Because I'm a nervous wreck.

Are you multiship?

... Gestures to my list of ships above. Take a wild guess.

Are you ship obsessed or ship more-or-less?

I try not to make shipping a big deal on here, because a ship is not the be-all end-all for interactions and there are SO many other dynamics that can be explored... But that being said... I do tend to develop ship brainrot very, very fast. Sometimes they just be infesting my brain guys.

What is your favorite ship in your current fandom?

You can't just ask me that maaaaaaan, I'm such a strong multishipper and therefore can't pick just ONE. Besides, my ships with my friends matter most to me.

Finally, how does one ship with you?

Literally just. Ask. Gimme a nudge. Be like "hey, so, Katsuki and [muse]: yay or nay". Maybe it'll end up just being a platonic ship rather than romantic, because despite my multishipping heart, Katsuki is the most stubborn muse I've ever had and doesn't go for a whole lot of romance - but it literally does not hurt to shoot your shot. I promise I don't bite. I'm just a little guy. I'm very silly. Given the chance to yap about Katsuki and his potential dynamics with characters, I will literally not shut up.

[styxisms]

This blog will contain dark themes. I always try to tag triggers, but if you need one requested please feel free to message me. I follow a pretty basic set of rules. The usual stuff, no hate, be nice, ect. Basically the same sort of things you always see. Instead of writing out all the typical stuff seen in everyone's rules, I am gonna outline a few very specific things.

First things first, I normally am not the type of person that has a DNI, but I 100% do not want anyone associated with Jay/JJ to interact with me. I have all of his blogs blocked and if he brings any new ones onto the site, I block them right away. Here is my post on my old blog about the situation with him.

Some bullet points to keep in mind with me

I am 100% intolerant of any bigots. Racists, sexists, any lgbt+-phobia will get you blocked.

Always specify the muse you want from me or (if you are also a multi) what muse you are sending/requesting something from/for. Thanks.

If you delete/move your blog constantly, I might hesitate to interact.

I am multi-ship. I will never practice exclusives due to past experiences.

Mutuals only.

I don't always use icons. I don't have time to make them for everyone.

I don't write smut due to past experiences

If you don't love me at my ocs, you don't deserve me at my canons. I only really have ocs in one specific fandom at this time, and that fandom will have the ocs mixed in with the canons characters but their role will be labeled.

Off limits stuff that gets you blocked: minor/adult pairings, incest

I'm not interested in writing with anyone right-leaning. I think people one that should stay away from my space.

I go through hyperfixations. Sometimes certain muses / fandoms will get priority.

I'm heavily affiliated with @/unrealization and he gets priority.

Excessive vague blogging is a block.

Extreme and constant negativity will be a block.

Some characters I rp as are evil and gross. Some of them I don't even like.

If there is a specific character or fandom you don't vibe with, I tag all characters and fandoms. Outside of this, I'm not going to tag with a content warning for specific things. This tags exist for blacklist and are simple on purpose. If something is incredibly upsetting for you, come to me privately and I might make an exception.

I have no timer on threads. Take as long as you want. But be honest, waiting for 6+ months while you are doing other things us disheartening and I might not want to interact anymore. Especially if there is NO COMMUNICATION.

I'm white. I rp some poc. I always try to be mindful and listen to the people in the communities I write. If I ever do something wrong, please inform me. I'm always want to learn and be better.

I'm queer. My experience is valid and I won't accept people invalidating it. If I get a whiff of you using transmasc people as a fetish, I'm blocking you.

I'm not taking sides in interpersonal drama unless we're really close or it goes beyond normal friends falling out into more yikes territory.

DO NOT MESSAGE ME ABOUT JJ/JAY. I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT HIM.

I am unable to talk to people every day. Don't take it personally.

I unfollow inactive accounts. You can refollow when you become active again

Some points for specific muses/fandoms

I am extra selective with the da/nganr/onpa fandom due to past experiences.

if you so much as imply that subaru and beatrice have anything aside from a brother/sister dynamic I will block you.

if you hate on emilia then do not bother following.

g'raha is my favorite canon xiv muse but please do not assume he is shipped with your character with no plotting.

All of my dead by daylight muses are heavily headcanoned.

Silent protagonist characters are also heavily headcanon.

I do not interact with any persona spinoff content. I don't really even regard it as canon. Don't send these characters to me. This includes the answer / episode aigis.

In terms of final fantasy, I've only really played XIV and XVI recently. I played X and VIII when I was young. I don't have any interest in KH and don't want to rp it.

I am very disinterested in hazbin hotel / helluva boss. I liked the first season of the latter. But I'm not interested in it at all lol. I'd prefer to blacklist stuff regarding it.

These rules will be updated as I see fit.

[phdmama]

Hello there, so what would you advise a newbie like me that is up for anything to do here on this site lol 👀😎

Hello hello hello, pal!

Okay so first, take this FWIW, which is, you know. Possibly not a lot!

I think of tumblr as kind of like a mosaic where the borders bleed into each other, so fandoms overlap. There are many different tumblrs.

Probably the most important thing to remember (IMO) is that you are 1000% in control of your own experience here, so curate the fuck out of it.

I think it depends a bit on what you're looking to get. If you're looking for community (fandom based, I guess I'm assuming), it's important to interact. Reblog stuff, that's how we get a rich ecosystem. I personally LOVE when people reblog with tag commentary! Don't forget that unless you're a girlie porn bot, there are real people on the other end of these URLs.

Here's how I do it. When I get something stuck in my head, I tend to search out some blogs to follow. My bar to following is exceedingly low but, and this is key, so is my bar to unfollowing (and blocking). I'll mass follow and start weeding out as I go. I also make VERY VERY liberal use of filtering both tags and content (on desktop, click the lil person top right, then settings and scroll down and it will have a list of what you've got filtered and you can add things there - just know that it's very literal. So for example. I've filtered the word 'cum' but that ends up filtering every post that talks about, say, a documentary - there's probably a fix for that? I just haven't bothered to work it out).

Learning to let shitty takes scroll by is an important skill here. I cannot tell you how many things I see that make me roll my eyes. But, I also do not engage with content that I don't like, which is a personal philosophy as I do not have time, like on the cosmic scale, to hate-read and hate-interact. If I see things I really don't like or make me uncomfortable, I unfollow, and maybe block. Filter the word or tag. I'm all about letting people follow their hearts, this isn't about judgement, but it's my job to take care of myself

tumblr search sucks horribly, but you can directly search for things tagged in a specific way. So like, say I want to find posts tagged as "my writing" - I put in this URL (on desktop): https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/my%20writing (you can just type the tag with a space and tumblr will put the space formatting in) and then you can sort by latest or top. I've never had luck clicking on a tag - like I've literally posted something, clicked on a tag and tumblr's been, like, WUT NEVER HEARD OF THAT BRO TOO BAD SO SAD.

At the end of the day, for me anyway, this is about having fun and choosing where I spend my recreational time. Not to say it's not real life, I've learned a ton here and made some of my closest friends in the world here, but also. Fandoms are just that, fandoms. You're in control of your experience here!

Good luck and happy tumbling! xox

[saunne]

Pass the happy! 🌻🌈 When you receive this list 5 things that make you happy and send this to 10 of the last people in your notifications!💖

Ooooh, cute ask ! I can't promise to send to the people in my notifs tho, I tend to avoid sending things to my non-followers or moots, I'm always afraid of bothering people 😥

For the things that make me happy...

Cats ! I really like them, little fluffballs of pure joy and cuddles. I often go to a cat cafe when I visit my brother and I have the luck to live in an area with lots of cats around. Most recognize me on sight now, since I've been here since the beginning of last summer. I can approach them to pet them without them running away ! My favorites are a pretty black and white cat with golden eyes, who oscillates between slaloming between the posts and perched on the low wall and who is very talkative every time he sees me. The other is an adorable gray and cream tortoiseshell, all small and thin and very cuddly, who likes to slalom between my legs and follow me when I walk.

Cardigans ! It's my favorite type of clothing and every time I thrift, it's what I look at first. It's a cliché librarian's item of clothing for a reason: it keeps you warm when standing still at a reception station, and it can be easily removed to avoid overheating when switching to mobile storage tasks. My favorite at the moment is a big white wool cardigan with a wide knit, with slightly puffed sleeves, 4 large buttons at the front and a little oversized. It's very comfy and I love snuggling up in it when I'm reading on the couch.

Perfumes ! I think my ridiculously long post about which perfumes I own and which one I was obsessed with (which I own now, as an early birthday present to myself) wasn't clear enough. My mother and I both have a fairly sensitive sense of smell, Mom more so than me. She tends to avoid strong smells while, as with sounds, I tend to use smells as a "shield" to deal with social anxiety. And also, the outside world tends to stink quite a bit (public transport and dirty streets, I despise you) so being able to bury my nose in a scarf that smells good helps.

Fanfics ! I enjoy writing them as much as reading them to be honest (looks at my 4k bookmarks) well maaaaybe more reading them lmao. My mental energy can be quite limited and I often don't have what it takes to tackle new novels/series. With fanfics, since I already have prior knowledge of the fandom, character, settings and other things, it's simpler.

Libraries ! Yes, it's because I'm a librarian and I fucking love my job. And also because libraries are one of the best inventions of humanity ? Access to more books than you'll ever own unless you kill a millionaire to get their money ? Activities for all ages on lots of different subjects, to open you up to the culture and the world around you ? As great a place for working as for spending leisure time ? Also it's fucking FREE ???? In this economy ???? Go to your libraries for the love of Gods up there, because there is nothing more tragic than a library that closes because there are no users.

Chapter 4 - Nightguards Mobile Base

Mike is almost impressed by the black bus the Nightguards have turned into a base for tracking down runaway animatronics. He follows Vanessa aboard, looking around at all the equipment and flashing buttons.

Two men inside the bus stand up. They both look similar- like the same person, but from a different set of parents. The first looks excited and eager to begin. On his chest is a name tag that reads 'Jeremy Fitzgerald'. The other is slightly taller and has a blank expression. His name tag must be a nickname, however, as it simply says, 'Eggs Benedict'.

"Mike, I want you to meet the other emergency Nightguards." Vanessa says.

Jeremy moves forward immediately, offering his hand to shake, "Nice to meet you, Mike. I'm Jeremy. I'm sort of the tech guy around here."

Mike takes his hand and gives a half-hearted shake, "Ah- nice. I'm… the guy who let the animatronics out."

"We all make occasional mistakes." Eggs says in a stiff voice, "Like relying on autocorrect for legal documents. It happens."

"It sure does… Eggs." Vanessa gives him a wink.

"I've embraced it." Eggs says simply, "To change the paperwork would take three to seven weeks and I don't want to bother."

"So your name isn't Eggs." Mike clarifies.

"Legally, it is now." Eggs says.

"How do you manage that?"

Eggs shrugs, "I am capable of many clerical errors."

"Come on, Eggsy." Jeremy laughs, "Focus on what you're good at!"

"I am good at blind obedience." Eggs says.

Vanessa gives a sideways grin, "... yeahhhh, Eggs was chosen by management because he does pretty much anything he's asked. No complaints, no questions. He's like a robot, haha."

"Yes. Like a robot. Ha. Ha. Ha. Funny." Eggs says in a monotone voice, "But she is right. I will do anything that needs done, provided I can finish the job in time for my show."

"What show?" Jeremy asks.

"Well…" Eggs shows a tiny glimmer of emotion as he avoids eye contact.

"As much as I'd love to discuss TV, unless we're talking about Freddy and Friends, it'll have to wait." Vanessa says, "We have a hunch on where they might be headed next. And there's a plan to catch them."

Eggs looks relieved, as does Jeremy, who probably didn't actually want to know what Eggs watches.

Mike sits down in an empty chair and tries keeping to himself as Vanessa starts to outline the situation. He is thankful that she glosses over just how useless he was.

"Also, it seems one of the animatronics has a feature we don't know about. You may be put to sleep by one of them somehow. Mike wasn't affected. Mike, can you describe it?"

Mike can no longer remember exactly what happened, "I think… it was Freddy. Maybe. Or Chica?"

"Okay." Vanessa writes down what he says, "Do you know how they did it?"

He shrugs, "I don't remember. I got hit in the head. Twice I think."

"Gosh, do you need to see a doctor?" Jeremy asks, concerned.

"Nah, head trauma is an average Tuesday for me." Mike admits.

"We are both prone to mistakes." Eggs says.

Mike doesn't want to be associated with Eggs, but he nods, "Yep. Seems so."

"Good thing I always do things perfectly and never mess up." Jeremy adds jokingly.

Vanessa looks physically pained to see her team, "Okay, let's get back on track. Animatronic features. Who needs a refresher?"

Mike doesn't, but Eggs and Jeremy both raise their hands.

"Okay, so every Fazbear animatronic is equipped with its own special features. Some are pretty basic and some are unique." Vanessa explains, "The four we have to concern ourselves with at the moment are the original Freddy, Chica, Bonnie and Foxy animatronics."

"Bonnie is my favorite." Jeremy says.

Vanessa gives him a look.

"I am partial to Freddy." Eggs misses Vanessa's expression.

"Ha. Basic." Jeremy says, "Mike?"

Mike shrugs, "Uh… Fffffoxy?"

"Great. Love to hear it." Vanessa says, "Now as I was saying-"

"What's your favorite, Vanessa?" Jeremy interrupts.

Vanessa openly glares at him.

"You can have Chica." Jeremy says.

"Speaking of Chica-" Vanessa tries steering the conversation back to the task at hand, "Can anyone tell me what Chica's features include?"

Mike doesn't want to speak up and the others clearly don't know. Vanessa keeps talking with barely a pause.

"Chica has a cupcake animatronic that she can remotely control. She can see and hear through it, which makes it a perfect spy. You have to be careful if you see the cupcake separated from Chica."

"She also likes pizza." Mike adds.

"Oh yeah. In the cartoon." Jeremy says.

"No, the animatronic loves pizza." Mike clarifies, "She spends a lot of time in the kitchen just eating like crazy. We could maybe lure her with food if we need to."

Vanessa nods and writes down the information, "Good idea. Next we have Bonnie. He's pretty straight forward. He has good hearing and eyesight and can move pretty quick. Nothing else of note."

Mike raises an eyebrow, "What about the fuzz?"

"The fuzz?"

Mike wonders how much Vanessa actually knows about these robots, "Bonnie messes with cameras and electronics. I call it 'the fuzz' sometimes because he can make the camera super fuzzy and distorted. Especially if he's looking at it or singing. He sings a lot, by the way."

"Yeah, he's the guitarist!" Jeremy plays air guitar and laughs, "He's so cool. I learned to play guitar because of him."

"Maybe you can get his autograph while he's tearing you limb from limb." Vanessa snaps, "Can we please stay on-topic?"

Eggs raises his hand.

Vanessa casts him a withering look, but lets him speak.

"Could we possibly use Bonnie to cause the other animatronics to malfunction? If they are also electronics?"

"That's… a good idea." Vanessa says, surprised, "But let's get through the rest of these. Foxy is even faster than Bonnie and his eyesight is better. He can see electric currents, magnetic fields, even sound waves in some cases."

"He can see through the cameras too." Mike says, deciding to just keep adding to Vanessa's information, "The manager says I imagined it, but every time I turned the cameras onto Foxy, he would take a moment and look directly at me. He knew the camera was on and he knew I was behind it."

"That's a bit horrifying." Jeremy says.

"Oh yeah- and you can temporarily blind him with a bright light." Mike says, "That's probably the only reason I'm alive right now."

"Yeah- so… flashlights are an important tool for us." Vanessa says, "Make sure you never leave this bus without one."

She looks down at her notes and scribbles something down, "Okay then. Now we just have Freddy. His eyes can glow and he has a music box."

"Is that it?" Jeremy asks.

Vanessa nods, "Unless Mike has some added information for us?"

Mike shrugs, "Uh- not really. He's just a robotic bear. Which is scary enough."

Eggs raises his hand again and Mike wonders if he knows he can just speak without permission. Vanessa gives him a nod of approval.

"I know everyone says they are robotic, but every time I've seen a picture of one, they look real. Well- not like real animals, but like they do in the cartoons. Not like the animatronics from the restaurants."

Vanessa nods, "Good question. But they are robots. I don't think we know why they look the way they do."

"Sure we do." Jeremy says, "Don't you know how this started in the first place?"

Vanessa stares at him blankly, "What?"

Jeremy leans forward, excited to tell the others what he knows, "This all happened because the designer of the animatronics wanted them to be realistic in the restaurants. He wanted them to look just like the cartoons, like Eggs said."

Jeremy spins his chair around and types into a computer, bringing up an image of a small, round disk, "These disks were added to every animatronic. How they work exactly is classified, but they emit a field of some sort that alters how the animatronics appear. It makes them look real. It also seems to have some bad side effects that make them go crazy and want to kill people."

"So if we remove the disks, we should be able to make them harmless again?" Vanessa asks.

"Nope. They tried that. The animatronics seem to be able to emit the necessary field on their own now. The disk evolved them in a way. That's why they can eat and breathe. Who knows what else they're capable of?"

Eggs tilts his head, "Was the disk used on anything else? What kind of robots do you think it would work on?"

"I think it would work on anything, but it's patented by Fazbear Incorporated, so nothing else ever got one. Not that we know of anyway." Jeremy says, "Why do you ask?"

Eggs shrugs and looks away, "Just curious."

Vanessa is furiously scribbling down notes in her notepad. She looks up and gives a tired smile, "Any more questions? Or comments?"

"I don't know, Vanny? Do you have questions?" Jeremy teases, "You seem to be a bit out of your depth."

Vanessa squeezes her pen so hard ink comes out the top, "I was trained for this position. We just didn't have time to go over all the tiny details…"

"You don't have to defend yourself." Mike says, "I'm sure you're the most qualified."

Vanessa seems even more uncomfortable and Mike wonders if his natural tone of speaking came off as sarcastic. He hopes not, but he doesn't want to waste time clarifying.

Vanessa finishes what she was saying, but is clearly off her rhythm. As she speaks, Mike regrets stepping on this bus. If it comes down to the four of them versus the four animatronics, he has a painful idea of how it will end.

Why do you not use Y/N in your fics?

To put it shortly, Y/N makes me cringe a little. It limits me as a writer because it really makes it too vague on who I want the reader to be in the story. I have no issue with you self inserting yourself into the story- that is the whole point of my fics!

I just feel that a placeholder name works better for my writing, and for the plot overall.

Isn't that an OC, then?

No, I don't think so. I don't create an original character with their own physical description, I just give a name to the reader in the story. You can feel free to insert your own name there, as you would do with Y/N. There's no difference. Your name isn't Y/N, anyways.

And more on that- Y/N is a distinct character in every single fic I've read, because it's fiction. And there's no rules to fanfiction. I would say there's no such thing as a true self insert fic because you were not really there, it didn't really happen, and you are essentially reading about a personality that you probably don't possess. Y/N could be considered an OC too.

Also, most OC fics I have read usually use first or third person. Like "I went to the supermarket to talk to him." or "She went to the supermarket to talk to him." I would think in a x reader fic, since it is meant to insert you into a story, we all use second person, right? Like "You went to the supermarket to talk to him."

That is what I do, so I don't consider it an OC fic. It's not a separate character, it's a self insert for you that just happens to have a name. Truly, this is subjective, but that's how I see it, and no one who writes fanfic follows the same set of rules anyways.

Tag your fic as x OC!

For the reasons mentioned above, no. I choose how to tag my stuff how I want, and I always mention the reader's name in the description. If that bothers you, feel free not to read it.

Do not send me multiple asks or comments, as several people have done so far, telling me how I should tag my fics. I tell you in the description how it is, and if you can't read, then that's on you.

You will be blocked if you keep doubling down on this or trying your best to make it sound like "advice." I know what I'm doing and I don't need your input.

Are you taking requests?

Usually I am, unless I say otherwise! Feel free to ask me about it. Also be aware that I am fairly busy with life stuff, so it may take me a while to get to it. Also I only write requests if I am inspired by them, so it's at my own discretion. sorry!

Who do you write for?

Probably anyone male, lol. There's no rhyme or reason to the characters I pick to write for, other than that. You can ask me if I know the character and let me know if you'd like to see me write for them :)

Can I talk to you about life stuff?

Yes, go for it! I will try to give advice or be a listening ear if you need it. <3
