going fucking insane over one of my wips because it's for a really small subgroup of a really small fandom of a really small fandom of a really big fandom that everyone fucking hates because people are cancelled like every other week and basically i cant talk about it with anyone without needing to explain like 60 pages worth of story that I wrote PLUS no one wants to talk about me because it's one of the cringiest ships in existence that sounds HORRENDOUSLY heteronormative on paper and like half the fandom calls them siblings even though they have been confirmed multiple times not to be and the other half is like oh the girl would never be in love with the guy because she's in love with the player!! as if being in love with her ideal of the player is healthy for her all and can't change or she can't fall out of love with someone whose interactions were limited to basically just looking at her, clicking through her text and DELETING HER
yeah so is about monipai as in monika from ddlc and senpai from friday fucking night funkin (i know. im sorry) im so down horrendous im on like seventeen doses of copium and counting and there's 11 total monipai works on ao3
one of them is mine and the other ones are either written by a 10 year old (because it's fucking fnf, what sane adult would write unironic fnf fanfiction) or unfinished (because fnf fics get no traction and unless you're fucking insane like me and have 60 pages of pure brainrot there is NOTHING keeping you going for such a nonexistent audience) and oh my god why am i here
the other fandoms ive been in recently are vashwood and shizaya and those are great!! those are normal!! vashwood has been getting boatloads of content that i cant stop looking at/reading and im getting fun ideas for aus and there's so many people in the community rn to interact with
and shizaya is a bit of struggle because the fandom is smaller but there's so much older content to go through/reread that it's fine and my posts about them get some traction and in some places you can actually talk to people who have been in the fandom from the beginning of time and overall it's a good fun time
AND THEN THERE'S MONIPAI. the ONE straight (bi4bi according to me and im always right) ship in fnf that no one likes because they're "sibling coded" for some god forsaken reason (and im usually all for sibling headcanons/prefer them over romantic ones but NOT THIS ONE SENPAI LITERALLY CONFESSED HIS LOVE FOR HER IN THE MOD) and it'll only make sense to people who like DDTO enough to not forget about it after playing like 19832529 other mods and even THEN like half of them ship it in the really cringe heteronormative way that dudebros ship them like GOD FUCKING HELL GET ME OUT OF HERE
ive never been madder about anything ive shipped ever. i LOVE getting comments on my fic and im surprised ive gotten any at all but holy shit
you know that one person who made like 3000 fics for their honeyworks throuple. honey i feel you cuz what the fuck is this
and with my usual ships i can send them to my friends who know what to expect and be like ok so these are the gayasses you're obsessed with this week but with this one. like the very premise is so ridiculous id be laughed out of their dms but this is literally like the most in-depth and serious ive gotten about any of my fanfiction plots ever (there's like themes and callbacks and motifs and everything, thats how you know it's bad). this is probably better written than my book drafts and it makes me SO MAD
ive even considered like. what if i just made them my ocs, since i've developed them so much and the plot is entirely my own creation. that might even be easier but the fic is so heavily based off of canon content that it just wouldntd make SENSE how am i supposed to rewrite all that canon lore when i take them out of it. i cant. im stuck tying them to ddtoverse
back to what i was originally talking about: basically i got this really nice comment on ao3 on my monipai fic and i was smiling really hard and spinning in my chair and i was inspired to try and write again so i update my. oh it's 71 pages. 71 page document to try and update chapter 3 and i end up going to my other ideas and workshopping them and suddenly ive penned down ideas for 4 DIFFERENT CLIMAXES?????????? AND THEY ALL HAVE THEIR PROS AND CONS AND THEY ALL BASICALLY LEAD TO THE SAME ENDNIG AND I DONT KNOW WHICH ONE TO CHOOSE AND I CANT ASK ANYONE BECAUSE IF THEY'RE INTERESTED ENOUGH TO READ IT I WANT THEM TO READ THE FIC AS IT'S BEING UPDATED BUT NO ONE'S INTERESTED ANYWAY
and trying to ask about which one i should choose while removing all incriminating details (read: monika and senpai's names) is so hard because there's SO much i have to explain as backstory and no one even responds to it anyway so there's no point :sob:
anyway i love monipai and specifically my version of monipai and it's legitmately ruining my life how's your day going
#soro rants#soro rambles#long post#cannot emphasize how much you probably dont want to read this post LMFAO this is literally a mental breakdown#i dont even fucking know dude i CANT TALK ABOUT THEM WITH ANYONE#the only other ship i have that comes close to this level of obscurity is n and colress from pokemon#which might be worse tbf because of the age gap that 10 year old me did not comprehend (i thought they were both 20-ish)#(they are not both ~20ish.) so there's like an actual moral reason to not ship them.#but like. there's only so much i can write about that and ive already published most of it. my brainrot isn't this bad for them#tachigin is also obscure but like. there's a discord server for it with like 7 people and a decently sized ao3 collection#why am i only into straight ships that no one ships wtf#why couldnt i have fixated on like. bf x gf thatd be so much fucking easier cuz literally every mod has them#but noOOO it has to be the fucking obscure ones that even the most heteronormative of dudebros are like 'why would you even consider that'#hell even tabi/agoti has more of a following than this like dawg#ddlc#fnf#monipai#ddlc monika#fnf senpai#btw if that person who commented today reads this: hi i love you#god i try to never rant like this because it's unprofessional and i never read anyone else's rants but like im LOSING IT#i usually keep it in the tags which is really easy to skip over or just dont say it at all guhhh#people who write nothing but rarepairs/oc stuff i have NOTHING but respect for you i snap like a twig at the lack of an audience#please teach me your ways how do you cope. maybe ill start brainstorming with chatgpt#not feeding it prompts to write fanfiction with of course because only whores do that

Oi oi Alice 🥰
How are you these days ?
You posted a Fic Writers ask game so here I am [as the big fangirl I am lmao !]
3/ Is there a trope you wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole ?
12/ Is there an episode above all others that inspires you just a little bit more ?
20/ Describe your perfect writing conditions.
37/ Talk about your current wips.
I can't wait to read your reply !!
Hugs 🥰
Hi Val 🥰
The current temperature in my city is 32°C, so I'm melting into my phone as I type this, but other than that I'm fine lmao hope you're good too!
3) Is there a trope you wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole ?
YES: MISCOMMUNICATION!!
It's a pet peeve of mine when the plot (specially a romantic one) revolves basically around characters missinterpreting something, making wrong assumptions or failing to share vital pieces of information they have no good reason to withhold.
I believe if used in small doses, and if it's befitting the characters, miscomunication can spice up a story, but it's hard to pull off well 🤐
12) Is there an episode above all others that inspires you just a little bit more?
This is a tough one!
At first glance, I would say no, because when something stirs my feelings to the point of motivating me to write, it's usually the narrative working as a whole rather than its specific parts. For example, I have a hard time pinpointing when I fell in love with Levihan. It just happened, throughout all their interactions with each other and other characters, and when I realized it I was already hooked. That being said, there are definetly some moments that stand out to me when I think about Levihan, and that I try to channel when I'm writing this pairing. These are:
1. Their first iteractions, with them teasing each other.
2. The parallel of Levi and Hange threatening the female Titan.
3. The entirety of the Ilse's Notebook OVA, specially these parts:
20) Describe your perfect writing conditions.
Basically being alone in my house with no other pressing tasks on queue, which unfortunately happens once every 84 years 🥲
37) Talk about your current wips.
My only WIP at the moment is my Levihan X-Files AU, The Truth Is Out There But So Is Love, and things are going... pretty slow (I'm so sorry guuuys 🥺). So far I've written scene 1 out of 5 from the next chapter, but it's because I haven't been able to write as much as I'd like.
Since this is my first ever multichapter fic (13 yo Twilight fic excluded lol) I'm refraining from writing other stuff, because I fear I'll get sidetracked. Hopefully, I'll get more chances to write, so I can post the final 2 chapters before march 3rd!
@youre-ackermine thank you so much for the ask, mon ami 💕 sorry for taking so long to answer!

I read a LOT. and honestly, sometimes I have a little bit of trouble remembering what I've read. so, I thought I would start myself a little catalogue and why not go ahead and share it here.
so here we are, what I read August 1 - 7.
Tit for Tat (E, 388K, Drarry) by mintaminta
Our story picks up five years post-war. Harry's ready to come out and leave the public life behind; Draco's looking for quiet reintegration into magical society in London.
Truly Being Alive (E, 207K, Drarry) by mintaminta
Ten years later, Harry has the family he's always wanted. His life is orderly and secure in a way he could only dream of in his youth.
It's only that orderly things have a way of unravelling for Harry.
Among Ancient Pines (M, 73K, Drarry) by theartfulldodger
Every day, Draco Malfoy tries. With every fiber of his being he tries. But he doesn’t much think about what he’s trying for.
In his final term of Healer training, Draco is unfortunate enough to find himself on a plane, the only means of traveling to a small, magical town in rural Alaska. Years of hard work have culminated in an opportunity to work with an experimental wandmaker to study the intersection of Healing and wand theory. When Draco arrives, he doesn't find the wandmaker, but does find his apprentice, who happens to have ridiculously messy hair, a lightning bolt scar, and a definitely-not-charming smile. But Draco isn’t going to let Harry Potter get in the way of him becoming a successful medical researcher, even if Potter is stubborn, hot-tempered, reckless, surprisingly gentle, has bizarre taste in music, and likes to leave his shirts unbuttoned. How hard could the next few months be?
A fic about challenging assumptions, discovering self-worth, the silver lining in failing to meet expectations, and finding friendship, love, and purpose in a small Alaskan town that’s steeped in magic.
more than a piece of paper (NR, 2741, Wolfstar) by ThatFilmGraduate
Remus Lupin was not a spontaneous person by nature and he had been very vocal about his opinions on marriage in the past, but when he decided that he wanted to spend the rest of his days with his best friend and long-term boyfriend, Sirius Black, he planned his proposal in depth... but things don't always go according to plan.
In which Remus proposes in the kitchen and Sirius is very confused.
Bringing Up Weasley (M, 30k, Drarry) by VivacissimoVoce
A rogue hex turns Ron into a baby, and Harry and Draco have to figure out how to raise him together. Originally intended to be a "short" fic, it's a fun bit of fluff with a healthy dose of humor.
Crash (Into Me) (T, 13k, Drarry) by sweet_s0rr0w
Harry’s done plenty of ridiculous things for charity over the years, but Robards’ latest scheme really takes the biscuit. Or rather, the teacake.
Good job Malfoy’s there to suffer alongside him this time, eh?
Recollect (M, 60k, Drarry) by Relevant_Peach
Harry Potter awakens in hospital, with no memory of his life. He knows a couple of things. He likes ice cream. He remembers how to apparate. And he's gay. His girlfriend is in for the surprise of the decade.
As Harry learns more about his former life, and the choices he's made, he wonders whether the curse that robbed him of his past is actually a curse, or a chance to do things the way he wants for a change. Fortunately, a hot blond Harry meets in a bar is willing to come along for the ride as he figures it out.
Features an OOC Harry, a secret plot, in which people are UP TO THINGS, and a tiny bit of soul searching about the obligations of being a hero. Plus, an inexplicably vague Narcissa Malfoy, just because.
Romp and Circumstance (E, 35k, Drarry) by wolfpants
Since the war, Harry Potter has gone from Saviour to Scoundrel—not that he’s complaining.
With a schedule full of gorgeous men, alcohol, and late nights, why would he want to change? Enter Draco Malfoy: beautiful, sharp, and completely untouchable. When Draco comes to Harry with a proposition to help him attract an engagement, Harry’s up for it—after all, how hard can it be not falling for his former nemesis?
Very hard, apparently.
A Pocket Full of Stones (E, 67k, Drarry) by waterwings
A curse is spreading through the wizarding world, erasing memories of the war. Harry Potter is on the case!
Where Draco is the DMLE’s most wanted dark wizard and Harry is the private investigator tasked with bringing him in. It goes as well as one might expect.

Hi there! I recently discovered Golden Cages & Borrowed Wings and I am obsessed!!!! I was just wondering, any progress on a new chapter?
Hi! First of all, thank you for reading!
Golden Cages is like my angsty, complex love interest at the moment. We've been in an on-again, off-again relationship for the last couple of months, LOL.
Its the kind of fic I need to write in small doses because its at such a low point for the main characters story-wise that it almost physically hurts me to write about about the trauma they are experiencing. And that's my own fault, not anybody else's.
But to be honest, yes I have a good portion of the next chapter written. And since you asked so nicely I will insert a teaser in this post....
(Katniss POV)
Sometimes when I’ve had an especially bad day, my brain will send me a good dream. These days I have a lot of pleasant dreams. They offer me an escape from everything going on around me that I can't find when I'm awake.
When I am able to sleep that is. Sometimes I’m too high strung or too terrified to fall asleep after a bad day. But there’s only so long the human body can go without snapping, and despite my desire to end this disaster that is now my life, my body still clings to self preservation. It shuts down without my input. As if to prove that I no longer have any say in anything, not even when I yearn to feel myself come apart at the seams and go completely mad. I am so tired of trying to hold on, trying to hold it all together. There is nothing left for me to cling to. Except the dreams.
It's like my subconscious is working to keep me on the hook. Feeding me just enough to keep me alive, but not enough to help me any more than that.
I dream of a lot of things.
Swimming in the lake after going hunting with my father. Singing old mountain airs in the lazy afternoons when he would return home from the mines and dance with mother in the kitchen after supper. Trying to teach Prim a two-step when she was five years old and saw people dancing at the harvest festival for the first time. The first time I ate an orange. The first time Prim said my name.
My dreams are filled with long gone days of my family being healthy and whole. The times before I understood what a dark place the world was. Before I understood what death was.
There are other dreams…that are happy but tinged with an undercurrent of sadness. Sometimes I dream of a dark skinned little girl with beautiful corkscrew curls jumping and flitting among the trees like a bird. I dream of her trilling four-note song. We share food around a campfire and I give her my rabbit leg. I hold her in my arms as we tuck into my sleeping bag at night and I promise not to let her go. I feel a sense of safety and comfort in guarding her that makes me happy and warm.
“I’ll never leave you.” I sing the words to her as she sleeps in my arms, filled with a wonderful sense of hope and love, fearing only the moment she wakes up.
“But you have to.” She always tells me when the morning comes.
So, yeah. There it is. A small part of the next chapter that will be written from Katniss' perspective. I still haven't finished writing it, but I hope you like the teaser. And I'll definitely be working on this more now that I've gotten past my writer's block that I had with the last chapter.
Thanks again for asking!

Yeah, I mean, it seems like we are not in disagreement with one another.
I agree completely that DinLuke is often a rehashing of early 2000s Yaoi tropes, which were already homophobic, and only get more problematic with the intersection of ethnicity. The big issue is a lot of people are more interested in writing yaoi than writing these characters, as you said. And that's what I (and many others) have been saying as well. That's what makes DinLuke such a toxic place, and what makes looking for fic such a pain, because you really can't escape it no matter what tags, ratings, or authors you avoid.
And I also agree that people are often forced to talk about their personal experience and subject those experiences to scrutiny. The argument often gets made that "it's just fiction, so it doesn't matter," so people have to talk about their experiences as a member of X community just to be able to say "actually, it does affect reality. It does affect me." I've had to do that in the last few days re: my sexuality, as have other about their own sexuality and/or Latinx identity. I've also seen people get told they can't talk about it, because they don't occupy the "right" positionality (which is bullshit, because you don't need to be of a certain group in order to recognize that something is problematic and worth talking about.) And even if you do occupy that position, you shouldn't be obligated to talk about it.
I really appreciate the response, because I really think we're on the same page. These yaoi tropes are really unavoidable. And anyone who wants to speak up against them needs to make themselves as vulnerable as possible just to be taken seriously, and then they still risk harassment. And that's what makes this fandom a toxic and unfun place. It's why I left for about 6 months in 2021, and never joined the new server. The "live and let live" and "don't like don't read" attitudes, I think, are good in small doses (like encouraging people not to send hate or dog-pile on people), but it doesn't work in the macro, because it just lets stuff like this go unchecked for too long.
I think the posts from Monday and Tuesday really get at this better than the initial Sunday posts; there's been a lot of moves away from talking just about the dark stuff to talking about the whole of the community. I stand by the posts I made on Sunday and the critiques I have of Dark!DinLuke, but I guess I could understand why they might read as a witch hunt (I disagree, but I could understand it). But since then, the conversation has really moved to what you're talking about here -- the fandom as a whole, and the reality that if all the Dark!Din content evaporated tomorrow, the problem wouldn't go away.
What I feel funny the most about the current so called discourse within the dinluke fandom rn is that it's just not fucking new at all, yall shit around about one matter in different fonts once every two weeks and it's a circle by now.
When will you realise that the matter does not lie within the old server, or about dark contents, or about feminised Luke so and so?
The problem is that sometimes I feel like as if you're writing fanfictions for a version of fanfiction, not Din, not Luke, not Din & Luke, because you don't bother to get to know the character at all.
Scratch all that raging justice aside for one hot damn minute because everybody is trying to speak over somebody all at once, it's ridiculous.
The fact that some use this opportunity to turn the entire cascade into a witch hunt like, come on, that puritan behaviour isn't going to put you into a holier-than-thou position. You're not a bigger person or better than anyone for having pride in yourself for not consuming anything remotely "problematic."
This fandom needs to know hubris and a reminder that this ship is no more than a crack ship that's what I fucking think.
