#I'm not tagging or engaging not only bc they blocked me but like... i'm less mad and more baffled atp

[ask-doodle-james]

actually nevermind.

kindly go fuck yourself repeatedly bc what the hell??

liking jily doesnt mean you get to frame a FICTIONAL CHARACTER for a REAL-LIFE PROBLEM.

liking jegulus doesnt mean you get to frame a FICTIONAL CHARACTER for a REAL-LIFE PROBLEM.

that applies to everyone, but rn I'm especially disgusted by you, trying to pass off your hate blog as a fun game

why is everyone okay with bad things happening in fiction when it’s happening to regulus, or happening to james while jegulus is endgame?

why does it only matter to you guys when regulus is the one doing the bad things, and it’s not being normalized?

my blog is not a hate blog, nor is it a fun game. it’s merely advertised as an ask blog that centers around a badly drawn doodle of james. my art style happens to be cute and simple because i’m not an artist and i can’t draw beyond simple doodles. my artwork can represent anything i want it to represent, including my real life experiences.

all art is a reflection of real life problems. to say it’s wrong to write about real life problems in fiction is absolutely delusional. and that’s not what you’re mad at. all of you haters are pretending that that’s what you’re mad at but it’s not.

those images above have hundreds and hundreds of notes. and all you jegulus shippers and regulus stan’s didn’t bat an eye. you don’t care about anything except for making sure that your precious baby reggie is never portrayed as a bad person. which is simply ridiculous.

i’m tired of getting endless hate for this. i’m sick of this blog turning into people dogpiling me for daring to express my emotions on something that happened to me irl through the art form of a fan-comic.

block me if you’re mad instead of sending harassment. what i’m doing hurts nobody, especially because i put a trigger warning, and my VERY FIRST POST on this blog EXPLICITLY STATES that this is not a jegulus blog. i didn’t trick anyone. i never implied that regulus would be a part of this blog. i only talked about regulus when PEOPLE SENT ASKS about regulus. because regulus stans are incapable of engaging with any marauders content without centering it around regulus and making him the victim of everyone else around him.

so much jegulus content is just normalizing abuse by having regulus straight up abuse james and then it’s framed as being adorable and cute. read: the 2nd, 4th, 5th, 7th, 8th, 9th images i sent. the rest of the images are normalizing james abusing regulus, which is even MORE of a problem in this fandom than the former.

what im doing is way LESS harmful because im actually addressing these issues with the seriousness they deserve. this is clearly evidence that you guys do. not. care. about. what. you’re. claiming. to. care. about. so PLEASE stop pretending when all you really give a shit about is a fictional fascist. it’s really upsetting to me, an actual survivor of this stuff in real life who’s just trying to process my trauma through artwork that HAD a trigger warning and CLEAR indications against jegulus. i only tagged it as jegulus because the comic is about james and regulus’ relationship. the same way all of you guys tag jily even though in your fics and stuff, james and lily break up, or lily ends up being a horrible person, etc, etc.

really stop and think about what you’re truly mad at before sending mindless hate.

"My corner of the SPN fandom has been very quiet and most of my inspiration has always come from interaction with others." just a small warning to add to this.. there's also the risk of your spn fans unfollowing or becoming less interested bc of all the OP stuff. it's kind of a catch-22 situation. like i get the hype and excitement of a new fandom, but i for instance unfollowed you bc it became too much. i still check your tumblr regularly!! but i'm only here for spn.

Whether people unfollow or follow me is not within my control, so I try not to worry too much about it. Because what am I supposed to do? Not post my non Supernatural things out of fear that people will unfollow? I want to share the joy I feel about OP and there are some people at least who like both too!

For those who are here only for Supernatural I've made an effort to tag so that my One Piece content can be blocked~ I also made a separate fanart tag for OP stuff so it doesn't fill up my SPN fanart tag. If that's not enough then unfollowing is always an option. I'm not here to judge and you don't have to tell me either.

The thing is that I cannot control how inspiration works and, as I said, it's quiet in my SPN corner and I mostly find inspiration by getting excited about scenarios with other people. I just haven't had that in a while with SPN. A lot of artists are feeling a bit burnt out because the engagement just isn't what it used to be. Many people are moving on, many things have already been explored, we are waiting for something to lift us up again. Well, I am.

That can be a continuation (and I hope for it) or it can come from the community.

Give me inspiration, ideas, excitement, a pass to draw whatever even if it's OOC if you want art.

#I get more annoyed by people who mass tag drivers in posts that are gen posts#bc then I cant even properly block a driver name

THIS OH MY GOD YOU SAID IT

I wanna blacklist the 2-3 drivers I genuinely dislike. I am usually very chill about most of the paddock/grid they don't move me but they also don't annoy me so I am fine and don't need to blacklist them. They can exist I can perceive their existence we are chill. Lando is one of the few guys I genuinely get annoyed by and would like to not have to see period but then people will just tag photos of drivers I like with his name so I cannot blacklist it or I run the chance of missing out on good stuff I wanna see just because people are too stupid to use tagging correctly.

And it's annoying in 2 ways. The I cannot blacklist Lando way because what if some moron gen tags Charles photos with all driver names too and I miss posts because of the blacklist

And the other way is I follow the driver tags of Charles and my other 3 faves and some days it seems like half the new posts in the tag are not even about them they are just being gen tagged and have nothing to do with my special boy why :( why make me see your dumb ass post if Charles isn't even relevant for it >:(

We have a general tag already and it is : FORMULA 1 / F1 / MOTORSPORT / ETC ETC whatever you wanna use go live your fucking best life but you do not have to spam tag every single driver past and present on your dumb ass post and be fucking annoying about it. What kind of social media brain rot do these people have to where they use misleading tags just to get more eyeballs on their posts. 1) this isn't instagram and 2) this shit is annoying when you do it on instagram and other socials as well. Like stop engagement farming with false tagging this is tumblr the no good very broke website, you gain literally nothing from false tagging on here, impressions on your posts don't get you paid just stop being annoying. use the tags that actually pertain to the post and stop tag spamming

And I mean f1 is not the only field where people are too dumb to tag accurately. But just because it is a widespread issue does not make it any less annoying. Can these people JUST learn that there is nothing to gain from false tagging on here and limit the tags to what is ACTUALLY in the post

Oh thank god I'm not the only one

I would also add people tagging ships on pictures of one driver. Why are we tagging lestappen on a pic that's just of Charles? I like the ship but what are we doing?

It gives off twitter/tiktok/insta immigrant who doesn't know how tagging works on this site.

Tag what's in the post no more and no less. If Charles is not mentioned in your post do not tag him. If both halves of a ship are not in the picture do not tag that ship.

I want to block several drivers too but when I did I found out I was missing so many gen posts it made it too annoying to have that name blocked.

[broodwoof]

i am so happy i approached davg the way i did

everyone's different, and i know that my method wouldn't work for everyone, so i'm not saying it was Right - but it was Right For Me, 100%

i knew early on that if i let myself, i would build up a very specific game in my head - and when it inevitably failed that (bc it would inevitably fail that, bc my view would be hyper-specific), then i would risk some serious disappointment, which would manifest as a far more critical view of the game we actually got

to support this, i blocked everything. i unfollowed ppl who didn't tag spoilers before release, i stopped watching any trailers or anything, i just cut it all out. and when a lot of the game was released early to certain ppl and spoilers were beginning to make the rounds - including some trolls actively and maliciously trying to spoil ppl - i didn't just increase my filtered tags, i unfollowed a lot of ppl (bc ppl make mistakes! i wouldn't hold it against them, but i saw a few things just bc of innocent typos in tags and i couldn't anticipate every possible typo, so) and also fully stopped using my dash for a while there at the end

i don't regret any of this. i waited almost 10 years for this game and i wasn't going to let it get fucked up at the end, and i have enough self-awareness to know how uncontextualized spoilers affect me (namely: not favorably)

so when i got it, i had no idea. genuinely. i knew solas was there. i knew the player character was rook. i knew the names emmrich, neve, and davrin. really nothing else. didn't know about assan. didn't know anything about any of the characters, really. knew a tiny bit about emmrich but only super vaguely. didn't know about the factions. didn't know about the evanuris showing up. nothing

and for me, that helped a lot. everything was thrilling. i wasn't waiting for any particular plot point to drop or any particular character to show up, i was 100% engaged with the narrative and the pacing as it was presented

obviously, ppl have complaints and critiques. that's fine. but i still suspect that in a few years, davg will be reflected upon more... positively might not be the right word, exactly. but i think it'll be less clouded by failed expectations. some ppl still won't like it, and that's fine and natural. but i'm also basing this off of the fandom reception to da2 and dai. i've been around, i've seen it happen multiple times, and it's happening again now

i know there are valid critiques. and ppl are allowed to be disappointed or upset or have whatever feelings they have about this game. but for myself, i just want to bask in it. being upset with the game we got will not make it into a different game. i've never enjoyed focusing on the critique side of things

i apply a much more critical view to my own works. things that i create, and have control over. again: personal. all of this is always personal. it's good to study things and be able to recognize issues... but it's also good, i think, to be able to enjoy what we have, especially when what we have is a game that is deliberately diverse, deliberately queer, and overall a very, very deliberate and nuanced response to current world events

and of course, some ppl can both critique and enjoy! i struggle with it. and ik myself well enough to just... curate my experience, really. again, i focus the critical lens on my own creations, smth i can impact, smth that isn't already done and released into the world. that's where i want to focus and where i choose to focus

[kaztheghost]

just discussing PvP and the issues people r having with Blue hiding !! tagged discourse and crit to be safe but it isn't intentioned with either it's just me rambling

Okay I mained bads perspective yesterday but I keep seeing people say that Etoiles and Roier couldn't find anyone to kill for nine hours--and listen . Is it that they couldn't find ANYONE or that they didn't find who they WANTED to kill, because they did see Foolish and Cellbit didn't they? Two people in nine hours is SUPER ROUGH yes but they did run into red more than once and just didn't kill them so idk I'd be more into it if they really didn't see a single player for any time whatsoever but like. Just because they didn't see bad more than once ISNT the same; I think I just mainly take issue with the fact everyone is trying to give bad a hard time for not fighting while refusing to acknowledge the entire server wanted his head on a platter, why should he 1v12?? Like that's ridiculous how is that even content when he'd get curbstomped against that many people, every time people want to fight him it's only AFTER they gather at least four to six people to take him out like be realistic if you want to 1v1 id be like fuck yea but he knows that where there's one there's the rest of y'all not too far away I just do not get it he's not a coward he's using basic common sense (plus even when people offer a 1v1 they're ALWAYS in a vc telling their team where to go to jump him) that is there's One of him and An Entire Server who wants him Dead good as he is (and tbf i also disagree with etoiles calling their fight from the other day a 1v2 because it wasn't--it started as a 2v2 and fit ran because he almost died (I'm aware of the miscommunication btw I don't blame either of them!!! It really really sucks bc I'm sure etoiles could've escaped) but regardless it WAS a 2v2 that bad didn't even Want to take on initially, it would've stayed that way if fit had stuck around because he was going to die anyways ykwim but to say it was unfair when it didn't start off that way is eh 2 me mostly bc it sounds like they jumped Etoiles off guard as if Etoiles and Fit didn't engage them first) HOWEVER saying all that I think they really should try to encourage PVP in different ways than just "everyone go hunt down this one specific player" because then it's kind of just . Like that encourages that player to just hide because why would they fight that many people? Boosting the kill percentage helps but manhunts don't imo they'll just stay underground the whole time and I don't blame anyone who does outside of even Blue--like when Blue and Green were hunting Red, of course red is going to stay hundreds of blocks away to avoid PvP it's just numbers ykwim idk it's purgatory but when you being killed will set your entire team back because there's significantly less of you then everyone else I don't blame them really and I hope the admins can come up with a different way to try and get fights going

[prismatoxic]

you know, I was joking about the m/f thing, because it's my burden to bear--if those ships make me uncomfortable, I need to make sure to block their tags and not engage with the content, bc there's nothing morally wrong with it or the people who enjoy it. the times I've brought it up are me venting about my own annoying feelings, but I don't want to give the wrong impression. if you ship m/f of ANY kind, dunmeshi or otherwise, I support you! I hope you're having a fun!

and the reason I felt compelled to say this is that I have now seen the absolute horseshit "there's too much yaoi in this fandom" take cross my dash and I do not want anyone thinking I'm perpetuating that bullshit mentality.

maybe the op was a joke, but the people in the tags were not joking. like calling m/m ships "heteronormative" or boring or whatever. being rude about shippers. that is the sort of toxic garbage I want to avoid, and I'm sorry if I only contributed to it by joking about my own tastes, bc I feel like I kind of did.

if you think some ships are inherently better than others, or that some shippers are stupid or unimaginative or, heaven forbid, less queer for shipping certain things, get the fuck out! I want nothing to do with you. you're wrong and you make fandom a bad place.

I have weird hangups about m/f with my fave characters in a lot of fandoms, and those issues are personal in nature and unrelated to the quality of the ship. I'm begging more people to recognize the same thing within themselves. people shipping more m/m than whatever your fave is are not fucking hurting you, and whatever your issues are, they're YOURS to deal with. same for any other dynamic, or headcanon, or whatever. stop resenting other fans for enjoying the series differently than you do.

[havent-thought-of-a-name-lmao]

hiya.

you can call me v, like the english letter. i'm 25 and a professional user of they/them. i'm black and an nb aroace lesbian. which is a mouthful, so i just like to say queer dyke or eldritch lesbian. they're synonymous for my identity.

this is a blog for talking about my physical shit (HSD, dysautonomia), neurodivergence (autism + adhd), mental illness (C-PTSD, DID, OCD), and my experiences being black and queer. it was originally just gonna be for physical shit (and still mostly is tbh) but y'know.

i might talk about S, L, A, and M a lot on here. S is my therapist, L is my previous case manager, A is my current case manager, and M is my APN :)

uhh idk what else to put here. my pfp was emu otori for a while but now it's rui kamishiro bc he vibes with me a lot tbh.

i also sometimes post general project sekai shenanigans here; it's less fandom stuff (i have Anxiety), and more gameplay. proseka is smth i can see visible progress in and therefore gives me comfort. i also just love vocaloid and have since high school. if you're curious, i'm at a point of practicing Expert difficulty, getting through 23s easily and learning 24s and easier 25s :)

likes come from elsewhere.

boundaries + fyi

if you don't wanna see my vents, you can filter "#v is venting". that's my neg tag.

i don't have a dni because the kind of people i'd have in my dni wouldn't respect my dni anyway. but i do not have the time, energy, or fucks to give to people who engage with me in bad faith in any sort of meaningful way. you'll probably just get ignored. i also block liberally.

sorry if i tricked you into thinking i'm a pjsk acc i just hurt a lot and enjoy the viddygame and think i'm funny. v unfortunate combination

respect my banners please lol. i really don't like when my posts get derailed and like it and blocking are the only ways to get around that and i'd rather TRY being polite first lol

any posts that have any emoji other than 💛 (which isn't a sign-off) are me keeping track of who was present with me/who i was when i made a post, just because it's helpful for me. no, i will not be giving specific information about those parts. it literally makes no difference to you.

more stuff will be added and removed as needed.

[toyintrance]

When I say "(insert group) DNI," I mean I don't want the group of people interacting with me or my posts/blog in any way whatsoever, and if I notice someone crossing this boundary, I block them immediately. I feel like other people take a less agressive approach, though, so I'm curious.

[in-the-bunnyhole]

Hi! You can call me Bun or Grave !! I'm a 22 y.o. transman and I'm returning to nsfwblr.

You may remember me as dumb-bun-drools (ik that blog was Rather Popular) but I had a few... Experiences in the last few months that made posting and making nsfw content as a hobby very difficult for me, much less having sex. Now, I'm slowly reintroducing myself to this, since I went off the deep end the first time without properly mentally preparing myself.

All in all, I'm happy to be back! I'm just gonna post my own concepts and things I think about. Tags, boundaries, dni and kinks under the cut !!! <3

Position/Role(?)

I'm mainly a pet sub (bunny or jackalope, if it wasn't obvious enough-) and serve only my owner. (he knows who he is <3)

Kinks

Yes: bondage, collars, choking, breeding, petplay, power play, praise, light degradation

Kinda Iffy: cnc, hypno, anything with mental manipulation

Absolutely Not: ageplay/ddlg/mdlb, r4peplay, anything to do with bodily fluids or excrement

Nicknames/Petnames

Okay: bunny or any variation, pretty boy, good boy, any variation of boy

Fiance only:

BYF/DNI

- I'm engaged. My owner is my fiance. Do not talk to me like you own me. It'll just get you blocked.

- I'm here for a good time, not a long time; If I flirt or seem teasy, know that there's nothing behind it. Yes, my fiance knows. Yes, he knows this is just me being social online in an adult space as adults do. He reminds me that I'm his anyway. <3

- Minors, go home. Do your hw. Make a friendship bracelet. Read a book. Something. Literally anything but be here. Not just for your safety, but for mine as well, because if I'm contacted by someone's parent, it's my ass. Do not take me down with you just bc you think you're grown. Go outside. Play fortnite with a friend, idk what yall do these days, just go be a kid. This isn't for you, not yet. No hard feelings, I just want to stay safe and do my thing. I wish you well <3

- I am a person first and a sub very far second. Understand that I'm still trying to get over trauma. I don't owe you an explanation. I give back the energy you give me. If I feel you've been disrespectful to me, I'll try and talk to you like an adult. If you don't take that, then prepare for me to not let up. Wanna go low? I got a shovel and a headlamp. Just respect me and I'll respect you.

i am STILL getting asks about my bio. i have three in a row and they are downright HATEFUL. this is incredible. i am driving this person CRAZY because i refuse to disclose my personal history to them. what fucking right do you have to any of that, dude? like...it’s 3am. go to bed. cuddle your cat. play some tetris. find your inner peace. you’re not being the person mr. rogers knows you can be right now

[sapphire-weapon]

I used to draw for other small/rare ships (apparently I'm drawn to those kind of ships lol), only one of them got huge enough after they were given some time alone in the manga which got the ship more talented and known creators and amazing fan art.

Unfortunately it also got more hate on since it was a ship that "got in the way" of other huge popular ships and going through the tag got annoying bc the haters tagged every post shitting on the previously rare pairing, plus if you reblogged or made content for it they would harass you. I just blocked everyone sending me hate lmao.

Lots of people now hate Leon/Ashley but I think this increased hatred also shows how the haters can see that it is a thing now unlike before. They see it as a real threat. You can see the insecurity in some of those antis, it's too obvious and also just sad imo. I don't get why antis take shipping too seriously like they're not even having fun anymore and that's supposed to be the point, no?

Truth is I've seen so many Leon/Ashley fans online and even irl, Reddit for example loves it and Remake Ashley is a fan favorite now. A lot of them are more casual fans that maybe don't engage that deeply with fanon (which tbh is the smart thing to do).

Finally I have to say your blog and the amazing fic writers have inspired me to go back to drawing fan art and just creating content for Ashley/Leon or EagleOne. :)

Since this is my new otp and the only thing I love shipping rn I'm also just creating a new blog for that purpose. I'm not an amazing artist I'm just an amateur but I'll try to do something soon when I'm less busy. I'll absolutely tag it as EagleOne. Hopefully I can motivate others to do the same.

anon what the fuCK i got all emotional reading this wyd 😭

i know that the antis are coming from a place of insecurity, which is why their arguments are so disingenuous (i finally found the "the devs went out of their way to make sure that leon and ashley weren't seen as romantic" tweet and hoo boy the desperation is stinky) -- and that's also why i don't engage with them. as easy and perhaps fun as it would be to just QRT it and be like "oh it makes sense now, you're all using text to speech because you don't actually know how to read" there's no point in doing that.

i said it a while ago, but i want to say it again for good measure -- i don't want us to become them. my humble goal for eagleone fandom is to be a haven for ppl. we've been the black sheep of this fandom for so long, and aeons are still accusing us of being predators or someshit (idk i'm only semi-fluent in delusional) that i feel like we all have an obligation to stay humble now that capcom's given us a fairy tale version of RE4 where our ship is the front-and-center romance and people are finally actually being drawn to the ship. no one knows how bad this fandom can get better than eagleone folk, so it's on us to not do unto others what has been done unto us.

idk maybe that's just my whole jewish "because you were slaves in egypt..." mindset coming out but

i want us to be a place where people can just come and hang out and make friends over our shared love for resident evil. i know that i have serennedy and cleon and chreon and metaltango people all following me, and i love all of them dearly and i'm happy that we've all found each other. i feel like that's what fandom should be.

that's why i don't fight with aeons out in the open. i don't want to become them. i'll swing back if they ever come here (though i hope valuable lessons were learned the last time someone tried to come in here swinging and i took them out in exactly two responses LMAO), but i don't want to go out picking fights and i don't want any of y'all to do it either.

so it makes me feel really warm and fuzzy and happy to hear that i've inspired you in some way. i know that our little corner of the fandom over here on tumblr is small, and i know that i don't exactly have the kind of welcoming personality that will give me any sort of real platform in this fandom (at least, not like the one i had back in the day when i was a fake ass bitch LMAO), but to know that i've made at least a little difference is everything for me.

A Response to a Feyre Anti

I made a post recently explaining the dread of having to watch Feyre be abused by her sisters and father, in the Tv adaption. And a Feyre anti made a response, to something that should not be criticized at all considering what I said was just the truth? Feyre was abused. Not only that but they went on and completely twisted the narrative to fit their own ideas and in the process made Feyre out to be cruel and Nesta a saint. complete bull.

I will not be tagging the anti bc they have me blocked (shocker), but also I do not want anyone to go after them, if you come across the post, I don't want it to be through me. it's as much respect I can give to them.

I usually do not respond to those who have something to say with a post of mine or are blatantly talking about me on their blog, unless they're just spreading absolute lies about me or what i "said", it's usually a waste of time to do so. but this post attacked Feyre with outrageous lies and a complete backward interpretation of what actually happened in acotar, so as respectful as I can be, I will be analyzing the anti-response and what truly happened in acotar.

"the audience will only see two sisters fighting-not abuse" "it’s not Nesta you need to worry about. It’s audiences calling Feyre a big dumbass and a bitch" -from anti

if the audience has basic human compassion and empathy for humans IRL or fictional, they will see what's obvious from the start. Feyres abuse. how is it going to look, when they see Feyre walking through the woods, shaking from the cold, starving from hunger, and struggling to find food for her family? only to later see Nesta's treatment of Feyre?"

in the anti's post, they said Feyre was just as "heinous" to Nesta.

is Feyre the one calling Nesta a pig? a smelly pig? ordering her to take her clothes off?

no, it's not, it's dear Nesta. the text goes as "I took my time, swallowing the words I wanted to bark at her" oh yes... how cruel of Feyre. how heinous of Feyre to...stay quiet... at the verbal abuse.

in the same image we see Feyre ask Nesta to do something (kindly might I add) and then inquire why she didn't chop wood like she needs to.

what does Nesta do? acts like a brat and insults Feyre...once again.

considering I'm going off by the story and not the actual screenplay, and assuming they stay true to the story; will the audience not be disgusted by Nesta's behavior? I mean they just saw Feyre struggle to find food and they expect Feyre to go home to a family happy and appreciative of Feyre but instead, they get this familial abuse.

the anti said Feyre basically tells Nesta this:

"If you keep bitching at everyone like this no one will want to be around you or you can’t marry this guy because you’re a waste of space to me"

but what do we see?

"Believe me... the day you want to marry someone worthy, I'll march up to his house and hand you over. But you're not going to marry Tomas."

the word worthy, did that not catch your eye? Feyre said Nesta will have to marry someone worthy, someone, who will treat Nesta kindly and give her the life Feyre thinks her sisters deserve. bc Feyre does think that IDK why anti feyres think Feyre despised Nesta so much, Feyre loved her sisters.

what the anti fails to realize here is that Nesta marrying Tomas would have been actually pretty great for Feyre. in the sense that, Feyre would no longer carry the burden of her sister. Feyre would not have to worry about feeding one more mouth. or worrying about Nesta's constant stealing of Feyre's money. Feyre does not think Nesta is a "waste of space" to her, if she did, it would have been easy for Feyre to discard Nesta, and allow her to marry Tomas. the anti has that twisted.

but that is not even the worst part of the scene. did you see the shameless slut-shaming that came out of Nesta's mouth? how will the audience take to that? do you think most of the younger generation will take it lightly to see a sister slut-shame a sister? a woman putting down another woman? in this social climate? where the feminism movement is alive and flourishing. will they be okay with it? will they still blame Feyre and be mad at her the way the anti says they will be? I hope not otherwise I'm losing faith in humanity.

Lovely words Nesta spews at Feyre. I admit Feyre should have told her then and there that Tomas is abusive. but let's think: Feyre is 19 years old, the youngest, has never had any raising by a parental figure, has been neglected by her whole family, where would Feyre learn to calmly talk to an overgrown brat like Nesta? Feyre telling Nesta who Tomas truly is the duty of a parent, not a sister. I will not condemn Feyre for not knowing that was the perfect time to tell Nesta who Tomas is. especially when Feyre is being tormented and verbally/emotionally abused, its kinda hard to think about something else while you're being told all these horrible words. to us its easy to see where Feyre went wrong but unless you're in the exact position Feyre was in. no one has any room to talk. and even then, every person is different in situations like these.

this part was me analyzing the interactions between Feyre and Nesta since anti had reasons to believe Feyre was just as bad to Nesta and that the audience would see that and hate Feyre. I am now going to respond to the second part of the Feyre Anti's response.

"How will an audience of non-fans react to her not reaching out to her family to tell them she was okay after the reconciliation between her and Nesta? Or not inviting them to the wedding?"- from anti

moving onto acomaf now.

Idk maybe the audience will see Feyre, a depressed, lonely, individual in an abusive relationship while being manipulated by other individuals she called friends, and understand and empathize with her. all throughout the beginning and half of acomaf, Feyre is in critical depression. she wholeheartedly believes she should not be alive. that she is not worthy. she doesn't eat, all she does is sleep, self-care is not important to her or others so why would letting a family know she's okay, a family who BARELY ever cared about her, be a priority? it doesn't seem like Nesta or elain or her father was really fazed by Feyre's lack of communication. her father left on a trip, elain got engaged and Nesta, well we didn't see a tearful welcoming to Feyre on Nesta's part did we?

anti, where is the outcry of her "family" not even really caring if Feyre was safe or not, of what happened to her? it's not like they thought she had died, otherwise, where was the mourning or funeral? no, they just didn't care.

see this is where I know when anti is just full of bullshit. why, WHY, would Feyre invite her family to wedding full of fae? the creatures elain and Nesta fear and hate? for all the talk many anti's spew about Feyre being inconsiderate to Nesta, to her family, you would think Feyre maybe just knows a fae wedding would be the last thing they would want? even then, does Feyre owe them an invitation to her wedding? does she owe them an update on her life? nope. Feyre owed them nothing.

"How about her shit-talking Nesta to a bunch of strangers then having the audacity to ask her to get involved in a war. Oh! This is after she comes into her house and insults their hospitality." - from anti

I hardly think Feyre confiding in individuals who she learned to care about and laying out all the trauma Feyre endured with her family is "shit-talking" but for argument's sake, let's say it is. I still don't see what's wrong? after years of pent-up anger and hurt, would you not let go of everything you withheld inside and explain what was done to you? how you felt? Feyre telling the IC her life story, which contains Nesta's abuse and her family's neglect, was a form of therapy for Feyre. I never read a line where Feyre calls Nesta a "cold-hearted bitch" or called elain "a lazy ditz" she just said the truth. no added embellishments. Cassian was the one who shit-talked Nesta during the dinner scene, never Feyre.

I still don't understand why antis are so against Feyre asking her sisters for help? like the war didn't involve them? they're humans, and you know what the war was about? Hybern wanting to take control of the human lands like they once did and turn them into slaves. those humans included Nesta and elain.

"They could have left the continent" correct, except elain was engaged and refused to leave Grayson. which meant Nesta refused to leave elain. but even so, isn't it the duty of humans to band together and work to overthrow a race of people who want to torture and keep them as slaves? the queens certainly weren't doing their jobs. Feyre asked to use "their" house to meet the queens bc where else would they do it? the queens trust the fae less than Nesta or elain did. but even so, Feyre asking to use their house was a courtesy, that house is rightfully Feyre's. she is the one who sacrificed herself to leave with Tamlin. she did it bravely, courageously, and they got that house thanks to her. they owed Feyre everything. and the only one who acknowledged that was Elain.

that war involved elain and Nesta whether they or Feyre or the anti's liked it or not. not even considering that Nesta and elain are Feyre Archerons sisters, yeah, their family name alone puts a target on their back.

How did Feyre or the court insult Elain's and Nesta's hospitality? You mean when Feyre realized human food differed from fae food? something she did not know about bc she's barely been turned to fae and only had eaten fae dishes? Feyre's grimace towards the human food was an involuntary reaction to someone who is still learning their new body. or was it when Cassian called out Nesta for her cold treatment towards Feyre? if that's the case then fuck decency, I would call out a fake bitch in my presence from minute one. you cant call what Nesta did "hospitality" when all she did was insult Feyre when she didn't even care that Feyre had died, or lost her love bc of abuse, or that her body was changed against her will.

hospitality: the friendly and generous reception and entertainment of guests, visitors, or strangers.

did y'all read something different bc this for sure was nothing Nesta gave to her guests?

----

the rest of the anti post moves towards Rhysand and his actions UTM which I won't go into because I'm mainly just addressing the false interpretations this anti had to say about Feyre and her family.

I'm not sure how to sign off now lol, but I guess just that I hope this was enough to show how this anti's arguments were completely ludicrous and have absolutely no compassion for Feyre, and instead all the compassion for Feyre's abusers. This anti had a real spin on what the actual story was, and I hope the evidence I provided was enough to show that. Anyways yeah my brain is fried, and I'm done arguing with Feyre anti's for a while now, I need to go praise my queen Feyre so I can receive some semblance of peace.

anyways, stan Feyre for clear skin xx

hi lost! i’ve been lurking around here for quite a while now because your blog brings me such a calm when i start feeling confused or angry when it comes to this fandom. things have quieted down now that the anime is on pause again, and i think that a lot of people left after the manga ended. but it’s also sad bc it’s hard to find blogs that are still active. tumblr only recommends me ones that haven’t posted in years so i’m just hanging around the tags, but even they are pretty non-eventful. i only hope the fandom starts buzzing again once the anime continues, but considering how toxic everything became last time scares me. i love your blog because eruri is pretty much the only reason i’ve stuck around for so long but it’s hard to find active blogs that would be like yours :(

Thank you so much Anon ♡ I'm glad you enjoy my blog and that it's a place you can come to chill and relax.

There's no denying that the Eruri fandom here on tumblr is much smaller and less active than it was about 5 years ago. Some fans moved on after chapter 84 when Erwin died, a whole wave of people left the platform after the porn purge, while others hung around until the manga ended and then drifted off or left in frustration. It's always a bit sad when fandoms start to dwindle and people move on, especially if you're still invested. To some extent it's inevitable though, fandoms are always in a state of flux and they all wax and wane over the years.

Having said that, reports of the Eruri fandom's demise are very much premature. Against all the odds the fandom survived the death of Erwin, the tumblr purge, and the end of the manga and it's now more active and creative than I've seen it for years. NSFW Eruri week was huge this year, there’s the Eruri wedding zine in the works and there are new artists and writers appearing out of the woodwork every week. It's just that most of this activity is on twitter rather than tumblr. I know a lot of people dislike twitter as a fandom platform, me included, as it’s a wide open public platform that really lends itself to drama, harassment and dogpiling. I don’t think there’s any doubt that fandom has become more toxic as it has moved out of closed curated communities, such as LJ (though gods know that was no fandom utopia), to open social media platforms, such as twitter, where it's much harder to control who interacts with your content and on what terms. Having said that, there are always ways that you can curate your fandom experience, even on twitter, by liberally blocking and muting accounts and topics that you don't want to engage with, or by locking your own account.

Personally speaking I have a foot in both camps. I hang out on twitter on a daily basis, but I have no plans to leave tumblr any time soon. I've got too much content here to simply abandon it, and I still enjoy answering asks from other fans. If you do want to follow me on twitter, I’m @losteruri over there. And of course I'll always be on AO3 at Anteros / Lostcauses.

I have no doubt that when the final season of the anime airs the whole SnK fandom will explode into life again, and I expect the ending of the anime to be just as divisive as the ending of the manga was, so my advice would be to block out as much of the toxicity as you can and just focus on things you enjoy, like Erwin and Levi and their amazing, inspiring relationship.

Have a good week Anon ♡

Hi :) was coming back to your blog again and again (mostly by accident and bcs I'm following your here). And I had your sad thoughts about your more explicit art stuck in my head and I don't even know why. I love your artstyle and portraits very much. Even the concept of your mpreg art and other stuff is interesting. I don't respond to nsfw/explicit art anymore on any social media bcs the any fandom is super toxic towards those topics. But your last postings made me do

"-I'm sad to hear that you can't find a place to post and enjoy the audience and can only do the "right" for the big community. Even I got put into a hate-list on twitter and I don't even draw nsfw. Bcs of this I unfollowed mostly any dmc artist there (and also you). Saying "don't keep track of numbers" won't work bcs I also do this and get encouraged if people unfollow me for posting personal thoughts there. Sorry for writing so much and we don't know each other at all ^^; It's just that I had your sad thoughts about art keep stuck in my head for days. I hope you don't feel offended or anything. Maybe you'll find the right place soon :) (have you tried twitter circle? apparently you can post personal stuff/explicit art for a few selected people and other art etc for everyone). Hope you're doing well and have a nice day :)" Hey there! Thank you so much for the compliments, and I'm so sorry you had that experience :( though that's not exactly what I was talking about in my post ;; Honestly, for the most part, I've had a great experience in the dmc fandom, especially on twitter - I haven't even gotten that much shit from antis aside from the odd "wtf that's his dad!" comment on some of my VN art (which always makes me chuckle because like. yeah, i know? that's half the fun about the ship lol) (though that might be because I've always been into "problematic" fiction so I was well into the practice of blocking antis on sight, it's very possible they simply can't see my account, lol) - and I do have a nsfw twitter for explicit art that I post to quite often! (or at least used to, I haven't drawn anything worth posting there in a hot minute but that's more because I haven't had the energy and inspiration for it, not because I don't want to) What I was talking about wasn't explicit/nsfw art, as much as art depicting more "controversial" subjectes, that might make people uncomfortable - like, say, mpreg, noncon, shotacon, watersports, period kink... that sort of thing, it's not that I don't feel comfortable posting nsfw, it's just that I'm afraid about certain types of it (and not even just nsfw, because honestly almost all my mpreg art is sfw, I'm more into it for the feels and the angst than it as a kink) are a bit contentious, and I would hate for people to follow that account for "normal" nsfw and then get ambushed by stuff that might make them uncomfortable, or even trigger them - it would be tagged for, obviously, but you never know... so, my issue is less not finding a place for my art, and more knowing that no matter what, some things will make people uncomfortable/hurt them to see, and not wanting to take chances with that ;; So sorry your experience in the fandom was a negative one, from what I've seen it depends a lot on in which time period you got into it, and who exactly you end up engaging with - at one point I almost quit because I had ended up in quite a bad place where everyone around me was negative and only feeding more negativity, but once I cut those people out it was all even more fun than it was before. Hope you manage to find your little corner like that!

[itsclydebitches]

Ive blocked like 3 people today for the kylo ren shit takes lmao theyre just trying to start shit. i feel like if you're going to flatten "character who becomes a nazi-allegory space wizard and is proud of it, and then kills his own father on a good vs evil space opera" and "pirate romantic comedy antagonist who doesn't actually achieve his goals even Once and doesn't do anything too far from the moral baseline of the main characters", and then put it in the character tag, you cant be surprised when people ignore you.

Is kylo ren the only popular villian they know (what rock do they live under) or just the one they know scores the most disgust points out of the gate bc of the morality crusade the sw fandom went on over his fangirls??

(Also while I dont like kylo ren bc i found him boring i dont actually care that people like him?? It has 0 impact on my life. What got me out of the sw fandom was all the hate if you shipped any of the main three in the Wrong Way, the kylo stans were a bit annoying sometimes but this is fandom. We're all annoying.)

(I don't even have that much of an opinion on Kylo Ren because my interest in SW is focused almost entirely on the Clone Wars era. I watched the new trilogy once lol.)

I've also seen Snape come up a couple times as a comparison, which is its own can of worms. Honestly, I knew the moment tumblr started diving into Izzy that a lot of other fans would be upset by that focus and I do have sympathy for them because I've been there. I've absolutely been the person standing on the sidelines, feeling left out of many popular conversations, struggling to find kinkmeme prompts I want to fill, all because the community has latched onto a character that makes my skin crawl. It's a sucky situation to be in, but that doesn't mean the rest of the fandom is in the wrong for catering to their preferences. Over the past 2+ months I've watched posting move from playful complaints and semi-private venting to far more serious accusations that equate liking Izzy with some sort of moral failing: as a fan who isn't writing the characters "correctly," as a viewer who isn't reading the show "properly," as a human being who is, supposedly, making a conscious choice to reject the diversity in the show to instead uphold the awful white man, so that makes you racist, homophobic, ableist, etc. And I mean, I knew this would happen because it always happens (RWBY friends, you KNOW it happens)... I just didn't expect it to start really kicking off with Kylo Ren of all things.

Ultimately though I'm an old school fandom granny who subscribes to the general philosophy of "Don't like; don't read." Everyone should be allowed to engage with the canon in the way that makes them happy. You don't like what they're creating? Ignore it! Block freely and without guilt! If you disagree strongly with a fandom stance — as I've done tonight — that should be posted on your personal blog and shared by like-minded folks; don't go throwing yourself into a tag you hate, screaming at those trying to enjoy themselves. Moral crusades against people who like villains/antagonists, or aren't enjoying them in the "right" way, is nothing new, but it never gets any less frustrating to encounter. Plus, despite my description of Izzy's popularity above, this isn't actually a fandom where the "wrong" character has taken over. AO3 has over 4,000 fics for Ed/Stede compared to 500 some for Ed/Izzy (with Lucius/Black Pete coming in before that at 604). I've already reached the point where I'm shaking my head if someone tries to seriously claim that the fandom, as a unified whole, has rejected the loving, diverse, healthy canon relationships for the toxic, white man-focused, fantasy relationships and that makes you a bad person, didn't you know? There's plenty of content for the "right" characters and the "right" ships alongside interest in Izzy. Plus, we can have both! [cue everyone's shocked gasps]. I'm writing a fluffy fake dating au AND a woobified Izzy suffering from hanahaki disease! I guarantee you the world will not end if you let people 'poor little meow meow' a fictional character once in a while.

[distant-wcrlds]

This is the main blog/multimuse ask blog for the following RP blogs (crossed out options are on Hiatus, but I might still answer asks about them if I'm feeling it):

@gayrett-hawke (DA2 PC) 18+

@laimdalen-itellam (DA:I PC) 18+

@lovely-little-bull (Riordanverse OC)

@slayemal-na-nerate (Star Wars twin Zabrak OCs) 18+

@sweltering-in-central-city (Arrowverse OC) 18+

@empath-from-azarath (TT 2003 Raven)

@not-a-twilek (Star Wars OC) 18+

@guardian-of-gotham (Mixed canon Bruce Wayne) 18+

@not-so-artificial (GL:TAS Aya) 18+

Rules:

1. For the most part, no explicit content. I am an adult, and I'm okay with some mature language and themes, but if it starts getting too far, I'll let you know. In general, avoid graphic descriptions of body parts and intimacy, but when in doubt, just pretend we're co-writers for a TV-14 show. For my muses under the age eighteen, this rule is obviously much stricter. Pretend you're talking to a younger pre-teen sibling (since I unfortunately know how inappropriate casual conversations can become in high school). Both of them happen to be asexual, so you can discuss that to an extent, but anyone who sends them sexual comments or asks invasive questions on the matter will either be given a warning or blocked on sight depending on the severity of said action. Despite Raven's adult-verse being added, this will still apply to her for now, because her default verse still involves her being 14-16. Also, over the years, I've gotten more desensitized to things of an adult nature, and under certain circumstances, I may be willing to write through intimate scenes instead of fading to black for applicable muses. However, expect the language to be vague and poetic, and if you know me irl, please don't mention things of this nature in person, bc my sex-repulsion is still very strong once my brain comprehends any connection to another tangible person. Specific NSFW guidelines here.

2. No God-Modding/Auto-Hit/etc. unless we discussed it ahead of time. Of course, if I reblog an RP meme that invites you to hurt or control my muse, you can temporarily ignore this rule to an extent.

3. Please plot with me if you want to write together. I don't like going into RPs completely blind. We don't have to work out every detail, but I'd at least like to get the basic gist of your character and the type of plot you want before starting anything. If I have no idea what our muses' relationship with each other is like, I'm not going to respond to any starters you send me. I also reserve the right to turn down certain plots and/or characters I'm not interested in interacting with.

4. Please be patient with me. Between real life and other RPs, I may not always respond right away. I don't expect you to either. That being said, Tumblr is a highly dysfunctional app, and if you're worried that I may not have gotten the notification for your response or mention, feel free to PM me and ask! Especially if you notice I haven't been active on the dash; I can't count the number of times I've only seen a reply or something I was tagged in because of my addiction to dash-scrolling.

5. Please don't interact if you're below 18. This rule doesn't necessarily apply to following or sending asks to my individual muse blogs that aren't marked 18+, where there shouldn't be any NSFW content, or the occasional SFW headcanon that might get spread beyond the rp community, but I will block any minors I find in my notes engaging with my content for adult muses directly. For my own comfort, I will not write with any muns who are minors, regardless of our muses' ages. I also won't write adult/minor or large age gap ships for muses under 25 (or whatever the equivalent maturity threshold might be for non-humans), potentially up to 30.

6. Feel free to reblog anything from my blogs except RP threads that you aren't part of. This is for my writing partners' comfort, and other than that exception, I couldn't care less about my notes getting clogged or reblog karma or whatever... I've literally had people reblog my bios and plot wishlists, which was weird but not upsetting. Although, on the topic of reblog karma, if I notice that you only use me as a resource blog without showing any interest in my muses, I won't block you, but I'm probably not going to be super motivated to RP with you either. When interest is shown though, I love being reblogged from so I can see how our muses relate or to send you asks as well!

7. Given that most of my blogs are for OCs, I think it's safe to say that I'm pretty OC-friendly. I'll RP with any well-written character that I can see my muses interacting with. For crossovers, I don't usually do outside verses for my muses (I have experimented with Swelter having an X-Men verse that I might add soon, though), and I'm not the biggest fan of multiverse plots between different franchises, but I'm definitely up for writing with AU versions of your muses as long as they fit within the world enough for me to not be distracted by it. For example, I probably wouldn't write with a Dragon Age version of Swiftwind from She-Ra, since animals don't talk in that universe, but I might be more open to it if Swiftwind were possessed, since there was a demon who communicated through an animal host in one of the games.

8. You may want to tag the associated individual blog for any muses you want to interact with when mentioning me. Hopefully, I'll see it if you don't, but Tumblr has previously been inconsistent in showing that I have notifications for this main blog unless it's for messages.

9. I write any length from conversational to multi-para. I'll generally try to match your length, but don't feel like you have to do the same. In fact, shorter responses are often less overwhelming to me for that very reason. I'm prone to letting the words take over occasionally, but as long as you give me something I can respond to, we should be good. 👌

10. I try to acknowledge the real world as little as possible on here. I come here to escape from the struggles of life and don't have remotely enough followers to really have an impact on bringing people's attention to things. I may reblog informative posts if they're relevant to aspects of my muses' or donation posts specifically for mutuals in the Tumblr RPC, but please don't directly ask me to share things, because my highest follower count across my blogs is around 30, I believe, less than 5 of those followers seem to regularly interact with my posts, and basically all of them are dealing with their own significant hardships, don't have many followers either, and/or are just as strict or stricter regarding their engagement with non-RP posts.

11. My blogs are not safe spaces for bigots. If your beliefs cause harm to others for simply existing and not causing any harm themselves, you are not welcome here. So far, I've only had one TERF apparently miss the memo that I'm non-binary (not that I'd be any less accepting of trans folks if I weren't), but I figured I should clarify to avoid any other bigots trying to follow or interact with me.

12. If you plan on sending asks to or writing with my Dragon Age muses, please note that I'm not acknowledging Veilguard as canon. I'm not opposed to writing with any characters from it, but I plan to essentially treat any post-Inquisition plots the same way I always have, where we make up things together based on events from the prior games. I may be reluctant to follow if I can only tell that you write Veilguard muses, because people who'd only played Inquisition already missed a lot of nuance regarding established lore, and I'm much more nervous about those who've only played Veilguard thinking core aspects of the universe are vastly different. That being said, as long as you're willing to adjust things to fit the previously established canon in our threads, there likely shouldn't be any problems. I'll link my specific issues and just general disappointments here once I write up a post for them.

Mun Info:

I'm not going to give out my real name, but you can call me Spook or any nickname based on my muse or sideblog names. As mentioned in my blog description, I'm 24 and use they/them pronouns. I currently work full-time, but my hours are inconsistent, so my schedule is constantly subject to change. My time zone is PDT, so I'm usually running at least a few hours behind everyone else, and I don't have the healthiest sleep schedule. From my interactions with mutuals whose time zones I'm familiar with, though, y'all don't either. Please know that I mentally calculate what time it is for you, and I do get concerned that so many of you regularly stay up until 3 a.m. or later. I'm a hypocrite, but please sleep. 💞 That's all I feel is necessary to put down. I'm bi, ace, and enby if you really want to know for some reason. I'm also neurodivergent, but I'm not going to list my diagnoses if it's not relevant. Thanks for reading, and I look forward to writing with all of you!
