Commission scams: A guide on how to avoid them and find legit artists

Hello! I am writing this guide in order to hopefully help people spot scammers and art thieves, to teach people how to deal with them and to give people ways to actually get real artists for commission work.

For those who do not know, there is a recurring, extremely widespread type of scam where someone will advertise their commissions using stolen artwork, or (sometimes) traced or AI-generated pictures. This started (as far as I know) on Twitter, but it is currently in all sorts of social media (I have found them in Twitter, Instagram, Bluesky and Tumblr) and also on Discord servers, often large Discord servers requiring no invites or that are easy to find through Discord advertisement places.

These do obviously hurt both, the people seeking to buy a commission (who will either get their money stolen, or given a product that is not of the quality that was advertised), and the artists whose work is being stolen, who are not getting the work themselves. It is important for people to learn how to identify these people, and to quickly take action when possible. This post is kind of lengthy, so please press the Keep reading button below for the full guide! (And please do share this post around if possible- This is a very common scam and I have met far too many people who have fallen to it or have got their art stolen due to it, including friends and myself.)

So, how do they work? (in Social media)

In my experience, a lot of these scammers either run multiple accounts or are part of a larger scheme, operating in organized groups that follow similar tactics. They will very often use automated means to advertise en masse. Those in social media will make accounts that post some example artwork, often with a myriad of tags, in styles that do not match (see first example, featuring my stolen art :'')). They very rarely post anything that isn't stolen artwork, or have any actual real following they interact with properly. They will then very often spam heavily through replies (such as it happens in Twitter), posting hundreds of really similar messages in a short period of time. In the second example, you can see an account from one of these scammers that is using automated posts to garner attention, which are shared by similar accounts (notice the same exact wording between the first and third post). The third example (in the Replies tab) shows how one of this accounts replies "Hi" to every single message they get.

They will often seek posts from people who are searching for commissions, answering them (often with a "I do commissions, DM me") or other variants of that. (They often only share their "art" on DMs to not be caught stealing by the original authors.) You can see an example of that on the first screenshot below. On Twitter, Instagram and pretty much any place where you can DM people, they may also come to your DMs, often starting with a "Hello" or something so you answer to them, and then they will suddenly share their commission information (as seen in the second picture).

In any case, they rarely have publicly available commission sheets, and will only disclose their prices on DMs. They may share more stolen artwork in there. From there on, they will often speak in fairly broken English, and try to lead you to commission them. They will haggle the prices if they can- But they tend to be fairly steep, with them going up to $300 a fullbody, which tends to be unusual in people without a fairly established following or popularity.

They will often give you a payment method that does not allow for refunds- Such as sending the money to "Friends and Family" in Paypal. This is actually illegal for commercial work, so if you get an artist telling you to pay them through such a method, please do be incredibly wary: Professionals will use methods that do have an option for refunds.

2. How do they work? (on Discord)

On Discord, they will often enter in servers where there may be a place for them to advertise, or servers available through Disboard and other Discord-community searchable sites. Then, they will often not interact at all with the community itself, but they will jump to advertising channels and post about "seeking for work". I have found out that scammers operating on Discord do only very rarely also have socials, so look out for that. Do reverse searches if you can. Legit artists don't tend to join Discords solely to advertise, so look up "from: [name]" on Discord and check how they have interacted in the server, if they have done that in any way. See the first and second example for an example on how they behave. First example has art from @ydteus (in the second message, the dragonborn's source is unknown.) Second example is from one of these accounts who entered on a Streamers' Discord. Streamers and VTubers are very popular targets for these scammers. Third example (with art from absent_lambeth on instagram, and unknown for the second picture) shows another important point, which I'll explain below.

Many of these scammers do not have solid commission sheets showing examples and prices for them. The third one even mentions "it is under construction", fully knowing a commission sheet is expected. Not every professional artist has them, but most do. It is often expected that people who do commissions will have some sort of Terms of Service at the very least, even if they do not have a commission sheet.

3. What do they do?

They scam you. You may never get any art from them. You may get traced art, or art that is not of the quality they advertised, because the art they used for promotion wasn't theirs on the first place. Or you may get an AI-generated picture, too. In either way: You will find yourself with +$200 less in your pocket and no way to seek a refund. So, it's very important you know how to spot them BEFORE they scam you. I have known people who have lost their money

4. How do I actually spot them?

Simply put, they do not act like normal artists would. Let's make a handy list of suspicious behaviours to look for, though.

Most people who draw commissions won't directly DM you unprompted to ask you to pay them for work. If you get such a DM- Report as spam and block.

Most of them don't act like bots, either. If you're on Twitter or similar pages, seek for extremely repetitive posts, hundreds of Replies in their Replies tab that are copypasted or very similar. If you see that, report as spam and block.

Reverse search is sadly very unreliable nowadays, but it does not hurt to try. A lot of them will modify the picture so it doesn't show in reverse search, but try it- And seek if it links to a different account with a different name.

As an ESL, I hate to say this, but the grand majority of them have really broken English, so look out for that. Not every person with broken English is a scammer, but it is something common amidst them. You will notice they fail to communicate general information. Try to ask them for Terms of Service, for example: They will probably be unable to provide you anything (if they do even understand you.)

You will rarely find them on your own unless you frequent specific tags, such as "commission" or "openforcommission". Or even using completely unrelated tags in their posts. I found one of them using a tag about someone's death to cop violence on their anime art. These people mostly only interact with their fellow scammers, but not with artists you'd find through other means.

As mentioned above, they won't provide you a payment method that allows for refunds the grand majority of the time. If someone tells you to send them money "as friends and family" in Paypal, or through something life Ko-fi's donations (although this one is rare), do not pay them. This is a general advice: Do not use payment methods that do not allow refunds for people you don't know.

Ask them for a commission sheet, a webpage, their Terms of Service and other things. Professionals should be able to provide at least one of these, usually.

5. What do I do if I find out they have stolen art/if my art has been stolen?

If you have found stolen art, let the original artist known ASAP if you can find them. Ask for help from friends if you cannot find them.

If you're the artist, DMCA claim. Every page has it, it is required for them to have it. If you search "dmca form (and the website's name)", it should show up. Bsky only has it in mail form right now, but it's there. A DMCA claim is a Copyright claim, and as long as you can show that you posted your picture somewhere before they did, you can do it. The form may seem scary, but it is not all that much. They will ask for your legal full name, address, a mail + a telephone, the url of the post stealing your art, an url to where you posted it first, and to sign/agree to some terms. DMCA claims tend to be processed swiftly (in about a day) because websites can get in trouble if they allow for copyrighted content to be stolen. And you actually do have rights to any picture you have created without needing to trademark it or anything.

You may also want to ask your friends to help you report the account and/or posts. Often, reporting it for spam will give you the best results. DMCA claims will take down the offending posts, but sadly, reports in most major places are rarely taken seriously, but they may limit an accounts' reach or auto-flag it as spam in DMs, so it is still a fairly effortless option to follow. DO still DMCA claim them though.

6. Where do I actually find real people to commission?

Your best bet is through other real people. Let me explain some good methods for this.

Do you have friends who are artists? Ask them if they have commissions open, or if they know other people who take them. Artists almost always know other artists, and they can quickly find you someone you can trust.

Did a friend of yours get a commission? Ask them who was it from if you like the style, and they may be able to get you a link to their social media!

Do you follow artists for any sort of content you're interested in? (General art, fanart/fandom stuff, people you look up to, etc). You can check their work first and see if they have commissions, or if they share art from other people, and then check those.

Scammers really don't partake in fandoms or have art-related posts go viral (some get some follower-begging bait going viral, but that's it). Chances are that, if you found a cool art in your dashboard or timeline, it is from a real artist.

I think places such as VGen need verification for artists and have ratings. I am not personally experienced with it, but you may want to check that out.

You can always ask people to double check with you if you found someone but are doubtful about them being legit. If you are part of any community, do ask there! If you have artist friends, tell them! A lot of artists are acquittanced with the scam issue.

I have seen people do lists of artists available for commissions in places such as bsky, too. These can be an option, but always do verify that the people doing the list in the first place do seem like an actual person.

Ending notes

This is a very long post, but I really wanted it to be very thorough. I would greatly appreciate if you could share it around, as it is a very widespread issue that not many know how to identify. If you do find out scammers in Discords, please DM the servers' admins and link them to this post so they can get banned, in order to prevent scamming and art theft.

If you have any question or you need someone to help you verify an artist being legit or a scammer, my DMs are open for that too. I have talked about this a bunch in other places and I am fairly experienced with these cases, and I would be very happy to be able to lend a hand and find you an artist, if you do need the help. Thank you for reading!

FAQ

What is Buck and Bobby week?

This is a week dedicated to Buck and Bobby from 911 and celebrating their father-son relationship. While a popular relationship, it's not a relationship that people often write about. So, with this event, we make sure there are plenty of new fic for us Buck & Bobby lovers!

What is the schedule?

Today (January 4th) the poll to vote for which month to fo Buck & Bobby week went up and goes for 7 days.

After there will be a poll to determine which week it will be, also running for 7 days.

Once we have a date, I will start working on a form where you can submit prompts and share this. This will be open for around a month. Less depending on how much time is left until the chosen date.

Once the form is closed, I will make a new form where you can vote for your favorite prompts. In the end we need 21 word/trope prompts (example: hugs, navy seal buck, hurt/comfort) and 10 sentence prompts (example: "did you steal my hoodie?", "what do you think you're doing?", "have you eaten yet?")

Depending on how many prompts and the results of votes, there could be a third form with the winning prompts to narrow it down more.

Then I'll make a post with the winning prompts and you can start writing!

And then we'll have Buck and Bobby week :)

Are there any rules?

AI is NOT allowed. Use of AI will end with your posts removed from the AO3 collection and being blocked on Tumblr. AI is theft.

This is to celebrate the father-son relationship between Buck and Bobby, NOT romantically. Romantic fics between them will not be included or reposted.

No abuse or SA taking place between Buck and Bobby. You can for other characters, but PLEASE tag accordingly! Use warning in both the warning section and the tags. I also recommend putting these warnings in an author's note and while posting on Tumblr. These are topics a lot of people want to avoid.

If a fic includes bashing of other characters, please tag accordingly as well. And, obviously, no Buck or Bobby bashing. (It would be preferable no bashing at all, but I'm not going to forbid or restrict you from writing it if you want to.)

No stealing, duh

I can't think of anything else, I try not to limit things. If you have a suggestion, let me know.

Do I have to sign up?

Nope. You can just post when it's time. Of course it's fun to let people know you're participating, but that's completely your own choice.

Can I be anonymous?

Sure! I do have to say a lot of people avoid anonymous fics because a lot of times they're very triggering or hateful to people. But if you don't feel comfortable using a username, it's a great way to still share your work. And I'm sure plenty of people still read anonymous fics.

Do I have to do all days?

Nope. While that is the most fun, if there's only one day you have time or inspiration for, that's amazing as well. You can skip days you don't want to do. It's completely up to you.

Is it limited to fics?

It's not! You can use any form of creativity. Think of:

Art

Playlist

Video edit

Picture edit

Moodboard

Podfic

Poetry

Anything else creative you can think of.

Is there a minimum or maximum word count?

Nope. No restrictions here either. This means you can also submit snippets. Or a full on novel with 100k+ words. Every number is allowed :)

How do I get it into the AO3 collection?

The collection isn't created yet and will be around a month before the event. Once it's created you can find the option 'post to collections / challenges' right underneath 'associations'. In this you search for the name, which I'll post on here once it's created. Once your fic is posted it'll be added to the collection.

I've never posted on AO3 before and don't know how.

I'm planning on making a quick tutorial soon, either on here or on @911buddieweek in which I'll explain the meanings of each parts, like ratings and warnings and the most used meanings behind them. Keep an eye out! If you want to know before I post, you can send me a message.

I have a different question

Don't be afraid to send an ask or message! I'll try to get back to you ASAP. I don't have tumblr notifications on, but I'm chronically online so I'll hopefully see it quickly. (I do like in Europe so if you're not European we might have a different timezone. But you can send it any time you want and I'll see it when I wake up.)

I hope this is enough info! And I'm very excited :)

Okay, here are the few questions I have for your latest emoji asking...

1.💥

2.🏷️

3.🥳

4.🎬 Especially the casting of Phantom(Mingling)

-honestly, I thought she was a lot similar to Bellatrix Lestrange...so the same actor would be a good cast?

I also had a question about the relationships (cough romantic cough ..) between the characters. But decided to ask later because It would be too long. So, would it be okay for you if I ask about them seperately later?

Also P.S: If you have any questions or things curious about me ...feel free to ask!

💥 What is one canon thing that you wish you could change?

If I could change one thing for the canon, I would like something that the third movie could have done better, the way I hear most pandoms used to enjoy, but did later find the plot a bit rushed and had the film become light rather than too dark like KFP 2 did. What I wished to play out in the story was to expand Kai's background story.

Listen. We all know Oogway's story of how he met his yak brother in the war 500 years ago; the two brothers became the most badass warlords who fought battles and bonded their armies together until Kai turned back against him because of Oogway's change and his chi power, he claimed souls for strength, went too close to the sun.

Kai did say to the Jade Palace masters that he loved Oogway like a brother, and he betrayed him. If there's something that the plothole needs to fill, I want to know why did Oogway betray him for? There must be a reason that caused their brotherhood/friendship to fragment during their warlord days before Kai turned evil, and I want to know more!

I wish there was more to reveal that Kai discovered something to steal their chi. And. . . hear me on this one. . .

Kai's jombies steal masters, one by one. 95 minutes weren't enough, and I prefer to have around 2hrs and 30mins, maybe closer to 3hrs (if you are Peter Jackson or Zack Snyder), because the Dragon Warrior is dealing with the unknown beast from the Spirit Realm who took his friends, and his family, building several tensions with a few twists and turns before Po can discover what he can do to defeat Kai the hard way.

There are plenty of fic stories that feature Kai (including mine, too!) and a comic I found. Those books introduce Kai and Oogway during their warlord days and have background stories. I'll reblog with links, and @amateraponzu 's comic fic Wish Upon the Stars on Tumblr.

🏷 (hopefully, this is the tag emote I found) Is there a tag you like to search for when looking for fanfics to read?

Not really. I have yet to search for any fics to catch my eye; I would like to read anything interesting from old fics when I was stuck writing my fanfic series. But of course, reminding me of the tags (stories), I need to catch up with other fics, like @shootbangdang 's The Vale, @mastrrt 's To the Weeping River, and Drags's Mongol fic Winds of Change. All three fics are from FanFiction, and they are worth timing to read!

(Drags! You are the stupendous author, and I must say your fic is well written to see Po, Tigress, and Crane head to Mongolia and grab the secret weapon before anyone gets it! The characters (your OCs too), action scenes, your writing, my lord!)

While I am having a break from writing a sequel book for now, only to start editing my two novels, I highly recommend reading Drags's fic first, Righteous Flame. That goes for all pandoms! His book is stellar.

🥳 Why did you start writing fanfic?

There are reasons why I started a fic. I wanted to start writing because it's part of my hobby. Not only a hobby that I would like to be an author of someday (if I could make my own Narnia/Lord of the Rings/Game of Thrones worldbuilding with my polar bear character), I write for those who I love and friendships irl. Friends of mine who I am with from high school and Wing Chun class, and families of mine who I grew up with and raised together.

My first book had me write for my mates and my master from the Wing Chun class. Dedicated to building a kung fu panda fic after I watched KFP 3, I started writing for my real-life companions. It was a rough start to begin there without planning to build a structure (yeah, I was a noob writer), but I could have created layers before I must write. Two years later, I knew where to end my first book. And later on, worldbuilding is the most challenging one for my fic series.

Not a simple task for my fic to name cities, countries, etc., but I'll leave notes on what places have instead of losing puzzle pieces. And trust me, when you plan to write a giant fic, make a plan, build structures with one stone at a time, create vivid characters, and develop tensions. All books should have conflicts featuring a hero and villain. Make your villains play an unfair game! Make your hero's journey and have his struggles to see challenges before achieving success!

Writing is not easy. And it still feels like it, but it rewards you for accomplishments. Even when you finish the book, always edit your first drafts, build some details, and fill in plotholes.

🎬 If a movie or a show were based on your fic, which fic you'd you choose, and who would you fan cast?

A show can be promising for the Mightiest Warriors Series because there are depths and interesting characters to know more about. A movie makes it simple around 2 to 3 hours (depending) for the story, but it might have a few plotholes if my fanfic series would be based on.

Now, I like how you picked my most menacing villain, Mingling. She deserves to have an actress voicing the black bear. Her personality blends with three major characters that I was inspired by, making the most dangerous antagonist so far.

The Wicked Witch of the West (Wizard of Oz)

Marisa Coulter (His Dark Materials)

Cersei Lannister (Game of Thrones)

*Now I like what you first thought of Bellatrix Lestrange from Harry Potter, so that's a huge BONUS for my wildest child because Mingling fits in insanity!*

Ahem! How will I like to pick the actress? Her character's favorite color is purple (more like a royal, but I prefer her to go aggressive and extremely menacing, like Lord Shen), so my top picks are. . .

Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister). She can play out the gruesome character who cares for ruling and satisfaction to attempt to succeed in her vengeance. Compared to what she becomes lethal, Cersei loves her brother. No one else but him. With that sibling relationship, I think of Mingling fonding my bovine character Huoju. Lena Headey can play out her villainous role.

Ruth Wilson (Marisa Coulter). Oh my!!! If you have seen her in the show His Dark Materials (based on the trilogy novel), please. . . do not test her! Knowing what she does to love her daughter but lacks her parental type, she's brilliant, ruthless, and daring. Bringing Ruth in will fill my bear's affection for Mingling's only mate Huoju, and to be frank, like I mentioned the bear's revenge, she will not be stopped, despite her hostility and anger did startle a few characters of mine.

Just look at her! Ain't she a beauty? Now, look how gruesome she can be in the show. . .

Despite how serious Ruth Wilson's character is in His Dark Materials, oh boy!! Imagine you are a child, and you see Mrs. Coulter's smile and fierce eyes; she looks right at you before she can scare you. As I said, please, for the love of the heavens, do not test her! Ruth Wilson is perfect for a villain role!

PHEW! Lots of questions I answered. Thank you for these emotes, Righteous Flames! I'll be back for some fic links whenever I tag you!

this is a secret post only tumblr is allowed to have

STOP!

Are you on Tumblr right now? If not, you are not allowed to continue. This post is a secret, only allowed on Tumblr and nowhere else.

This is your final warning. I will eat every single pair of pants you own, I swear to GOD.

ok, theyre gone? good.

I wanna talk about random story threads I've been thinking about in my mind, because if I write them down then they become just a little bit more real.

This is Eliza. She spent most of her young-adulthood as a "Celestial Guardian," empowered by one of Four mystical stones that contain incredible power. (She's a Magical Girl. That's it. Don't need to think too hard about it.) As her and her other Celestial Guardians grew up and went through high school and into college, the other three members of her team ultimately left. One was severely wounded after fighting an incredibly tough opponent and never fully recovered; one grew distant with the others and ultimately vanished into the wider world; while her third and final teammate cracked under the pressure and renounced her Guardianship. This leaves Eliza alone as the Guardian of the Celestial Stones. For years, she fought her way through the hordes of enemies who seek to steal or destroy the stones, but the fight has not been kind to her.

Now, in her mid-20s, Eliza is TIRED. The poor girl has spent so much time as a Guardian that she's beginning to realize she doesn't actually... know what she's doing? As long as she could keep fighting, she had a purpose, but underneath that she struggles with her identity and her future. She's living with her parents, juggling whatever dead-end jobs will take her terrible schedule and random disappearances, all to keep on protecting, what, a bunch of rocks?

She's getting tired of it, but unlike her other teammates, she is still dedicated to the cause. So, Eliza, on top of her other responsibilities, has taken it onto herself to find the next generation of Guardians to protect the Celestial Stones.

So, it's a Magical Girl who's grown up and realized she can't be a Magical Girl forever. So, she wants to find the next generation of young, impressionable kids to take her responsibilities off her shoulders so she can live her life.

Even now, as I was writing out the ideas I had, I kind of realized how much I'm projecting onto Eliza here. Mid-20s, what amounts to a dead-end job, still at home with the parents, struggling with a sense of self and identity?

haha

Anyway, in my head, she's still friends with the 3rd member of her team, because instead of ending up injured because of a fight or vanishing, she stayed around. I have no ideas about this friend of Eliza's at all. I also have absolutely no ideas in my head about the other two teammates (Except that the one who vanished absolutely gives me future Antagonist energy--like she's going to reappear as some sort of Tech Start-Up Billionaire who wants to use the Celestial Stones to mine Bitcoin or something stupid like that). I don't even have any ideas about the kids she'd have to find to take on the mantle of Celestial Stone Guardian!

Share your thoughts with me, but remember. This is for TUMBLR ONLY. This is my secret, private, oops all shit fart hole where I can make anything--I don't need Twitter to hear about this.

I'm tempted to not tag the post, but I do *kinda* want people to like... see it? We'll see.

You must be 18+ to follow and interact. Mun is 21+ and is NOT comfortable interacting with minors. Anyone who doesn't have their age/ age range visible will be blocked on sight.

Porn blogs, blank blogs, and personal-only blogs will be blocked on sight. If you do not have an RP blog, do not interact with my posts or hit my follow button. I'm sick and tired of telling people this.

Do not Godmod, spotlight, or meta-game. I am perfectly capable of writing my portrayal of Lucifer, you don't need to write him for me. Please and thank you.

Do not reblog or interact with posts that don't concern you. Liking my headcanons is fine but only mutuals can reblog them. Do not reblog my shit if you're not involved.

Please, for the love of everything, PLOT WITH ME!!! GIVE ME SOMETHING TO WORK WITH!! If I can't work with what you sent me, I will give you one time to fix it and if you continue to give me crumbs, I'll block you

Do not write in the first person, script speak or chat-speak. Please write in paragraph/ novella format in third person. Anything other than that is a pet peeve and I will not write with anyone who writes in any other way.

OCs are welcome but must be discussed and plotted with. If you throw your OC at me and I don't know anything about them, Lucifer won't either.

Biblical references will be included in this blog. Please do not try to get religious with me, Mun is a pagan and atheist. I'm not interested in religious debates. I simply write the Devil. Let me do so in peace.

Shipping is encouraged. I ship Lucifer mainly with Alastor, Adam, and, of course, Lilith. I'm open to other ships though. Do not force ships. I ship based on chemistry and my headcanons.

Do not harass me about writing. I have a job and a busy social life outside of Tumblr and can't always respond right away. I also have ADHD and Depression so motivation is low a lot of the time and I tend to drop threads when I get bored. If you have a thread you'd like to continue, send it to me, tag me, or do something to let me know. You can poke me after 2 weeks of inactivity.

If I block you, DNI with me anymore. Do not blog hop and bug me about it. I don't owe you an explanation.

Do not steal or spam-like my starters. They're meant to be responded to

I am NOT A MEME SOURCE. If you reblog memes from me, send one in.

Get To Know The Mun

------The Basics!

Name: Kasy, or Kas is fine!

Pronouns: She/Her

Zodiac Sign: Cancer

Single/Taken: Taken by @brutus-the-robot-chef (3yr anniversary this friday hee hoo)

------Three Facts!

1- I have a tooth on the roof of my mouth, I've had it since I was in third grade and it doesn't affect my speech or my ability to close my mouth at all, I've completely adapted to it.

2- The house that I currently live in was built by my great-uncle in the 70's.

3- I am scent sensitive! Meaning strong smelling odors (perfume, weed, car, etc) give me a wicked bad migraine that I can't get rid of for the rest of the day. It's so bad that I have to avoid the laundry detergent and cleaning aisles in a grocery store completely or hold my nose the entire time I'm in those aisles to avoid my brain slapping me in the back of my head with a shovel.

------Experience!

Platforms Used: C-clump penguin at first... then straight to tumblr... then tacked on discord on top of that.

Plotting / Winging It / Memes: All are great! I do think I primarily wing it with a sprinkling of memes to supplement said winging. I've done a bit of plotting too, though not as much as the other two.

------Muse Preference!

Gender: I typically lean female, but I do enjoy writing the Fellas that I do have!

Multi or Single: Multi good, single good. do what you must.

Least Favorite Faceclaim(s): I got no problem if other people use them, but I'm personally not comfortable using an IRL faceclaim for RP. It's fine if it's a fun little thought process of "If my muses were to be played by an actor, who would I cast?" situation, but I wouldn't use/make icons of the individual.

------Fluff / Angst / Smut!

Fluff: FLUFF IS SO GOOD AND TASTEY.

Angst: OUGH..... SO FREAKIN GOOD... but in moderation though! No need to go overboard.

Smut: Would prefer to do these over discord. But also fun to do as well!

Stolen From: I'll be real, there were like three blogs that said "Steal it from me." You know who you are, maybe. Tagging: Anybody on that job huntin grind rn 💪😤

Warning About A Plagiarizing Fic Author

*edit: FIC HAS BEEN TAKEN DOWN OFF AO3! Her blog posts here on tumblr however remain up so I ask that this keep circulating. *Edit again: all accounts appear to have been taken down, and all blogs look down save for her @k-9bails account which she had the audacity to use to try to follow me again. I’ve got a reblog with all the relevant updates but I’m adding it here, too. Original post: Right. Time for the callout post, since the thief has refused to answer my messages or take down the fic. Before we start: do not send her hate mail. At most, I’m looking for firm requests that she take down her fic and, as you’ll see, all the blog posts where she’s stolen content from me. Mostly I’m just trying to apply firm pressure so she takes all the stolen work down, and so that people are aware of what she’s doing so she can’t do this to anyone else. So, let’s start. If you’re in the Daredevil fandom on tumblr and AO3 at all, you might have heard of my fic The Red Thread about a psychic reader/OC referred to as Jane Hind/The Hound, who can see, via third eye, psychic threads of connection between people, animals, and beloved objects. It’s this fic that’s been blatantly plagiarized by @k9bails (who’s blocked me at present, so here’s the link to her main blog which I managed to access before I was blocked). Her fic on AO3 is called Legend, under the username K9bails. She’s also got a side blog called @k-9bails​ which appears less active, and a wattpad profile here, so please, if you write, make sure your work hasn’t been stolen. She’s only got the first chapter as of today, but it’s already full of stolen material, and her blog is absolutely bursting at the seams with things she’s stolen from me. Fortunately, before she blocked me, I was able to get screenshots, both of the fic just in case she edited it later, and her blog (which I had to screenshot on PC, so apologies for messiness).  I’ve made a report to AO3 (please DO NOT report it on AO3, they prefer only one person do the reporting so that the volunteer team isn’t overwhelmed) and I am awaiting word back. But she’s also got my stuff all over her tumblr, and since she’s ignored my messages, it’s time to post it, since she’s active in the fandom and I don’t want her taking anyone else’s work.

Let’s start with the main bit from her fic. Left side is my first chapter, right side is her fic. If you’ve read TRT, you know that the concept of psychic threads seen through the third eye is incredibly important. They connect friends and acquaintances, family, pets, and even beloved childhood objects, with each type of connection denoted by a different color. She’s rotated some colors around, and taken some of the colors I introduce later like white, black, and purple, but this is very much my concept. Note she’s stolen a line almost directly word for word here: ‘Silver threads always struck Scout as the saddest,’ to compare to my, ‘That last always struck you as the saddest.’

In this case, she’s also taken the kaleidoscope effect line from a few chapters later:

I thought this was blatant, but it only got worse: she lifts two of my other original characters, and doesn’t even bother to change their fucking names. In this case, in her very first chapter, she’s lifted both Ciro, my OC’s Italian father figure (I’ve added a screenshot on the upper right from Ch17 of the first time his name is used), and Eli, an OC adopted by Ciro (also added to screenshot, bottom right). Eli doesn’t even appear until ch 36 so this stretches a long ways.

The rest of this I’m going to put behind a see more tag, cause we got a lot to go.

But we’re not done, believe it or not, considering there’s only a single chapter of hers so far - a single chapter containing a very similar opening line, and a bizarre lift of my frequent End Note message that leads to my tumblr??? That one puzzled me because there’s no real reason to steal that.

Yet another: she’s made use of the Hound theme, and made a barebones attempt to change the summary line enough to slide under the radar. If you’ve read TRT then you know, but if not: my OC’s code name is Hound, she’s frequently referred to as Hound or the Hound of Los Angeles, there are Hound metaphors galore, and Matt has taken to calling her his Hellhound, and those references are honestly so common it’d take hours to list them all. 

I also happened to notice, after all this, that she’d linked to her tumblr, much like I did. So I wandered over. And it only got worse from there. Her own ‘answers’ to asks mimic mine, including lifting answers from posts I made here on tumblr. I’m not going to keep having side by sides because the post will get crazy long but if anyone wants receipts on any of these, I’ll go find it on a case by case basis.

Here’s where she mentions her character using threads to track people down for Bad Figures who want to kill them, along with tracking down threads for information, aka a major plotline of my fic and literally my character’s stated profession. Screenshot:

Here’s where she describes more about how ‘her’ threads and abilities work (starred paragraph is an almost exact summary of how my character’s abilities work, including how she can send them images and feelings, down to how a red thread is needed to control a person, definitely her taking my major plotline involving body jumping via red threads). She also, SURPRISE! Steals my psychic animals that inhabit the threads, that I’ve hinted relate to the subconscious, and that usually have some traits from the character. Oh, and the part about how doing all that makes her sick, yet again lifted from my fic, where my character gets incredibly sick the more she pushes herself doing all this.

Here’s another section in which she lifted Ciro - my Ciro that adopted Jane Hind is a native Italian, founded the particular family-like group he’s a part of, and also basically adopted Eli - who was raised in the US.

This section is where she’s roughly stolen Jane Hind’s mental trauma and the cause: her childhood arc. I’ve discussed at length here on tumblr (going to work on finding those posts in my tumblr history and update here when I can) and in the fic itself all the things she’s missed, using exactly this sort of phrasing. In fact, our major arc we’re currently going through in the fic (chapters 130 or so)... hm, references frequently missed out Christmases, birthdays, and little things we take for granted. This is one reason I’m sure she’s reading the fic as it’s getting posted. On top of that, she decided she’d also lift how Jane had never seen a beach and fell in love with it the first time she did. It’s a small detail but it’s just yet another thing she’s acting like is hers, just like the details about how this is all new and her Nelson and Murdock friends have taken her in. 

Perhaps most bizarrely, her blog has even been reblogging posts friends have tagged me in that I’ve responded to. In this one, though, she gets a little too obvious - not only is she reblogging a post, maybe a few days after another friend tagged me in it and I reblogged it, but she also tried to tag her fic ‘the psychic thread’ as opposed to ‘the red thread’, which is my own series tag.

I have no idea why she’s done this. I have no idea why she was so blatant, why she thought she could get away with it. She also appears to have a few sock puppet accounts - for example, she makes a claim lifted straight from a half-joking post I made about my OC’s potential pokemon and then makes her own post using the same pokemon for her OC, and credits it to another account that seems to just exist to make her look more realistic. It was one of the more bizarre things stolen, since my post about it didn’t get much attention, but it proves she’s actively following me on tumblr quite closely, proven by a friend who snagged a few screenshots of her likes tab where she’d liked my posts.

She’s blocked me now, so I can’t see her main blog. I can’t ask her to take it down anymore, outside of the comment I’ve left on her fic and the report I made to AO3. But she knows, 100%, that she’s stolen my work, and just as frustrating, has gone on at length on her blog about how all your characters should be original, and truly yours, and how you should never imitate other authors. It’s a ballsy move considering how small the Daredevil fic circle is here on tumblr and AO3.

And look. I don’t want her to drown in hate mail. I really don’t. All I want is for her to take down the fic, and remove the posts in which she blatantly stole content from me. I’ve worked on TRT for years, I’ve poured hours and hours and almost a million words into this story, and the fact that this person is still reading it as they’re plagiarizing it is both incredibly insulting and incredibly hurtful. If you’re an author in the Daredevil fandom, I highly recommend blocking her. She’s mentioned a few very popular authors in the fandom in the blog posts, so I know she’s reading your work, too, and I don’t want yours stolen anymore than I do. If you see someone commenting about her fic, tell them its stolen. Warn your DD author friends. And if you’re going to say something to her, let it be a request to take down her fic and delete the blog posts that have plagiarized my content. That’s my end goal - not to burn her life down but to just pressure her to stop stealing something very, very dear to me, and hopefully learn not to do this in the future.

That’s all I want. *Edited 12/20: as of today, her fic on AO3 has been taken down! The scores of comments, or AO3′s plagiarism team, has done the job so this is a huge win, and I’m grateful to everyone that helped! Her tumblr posts on her k9bails account, however, are still up, and she has yet to respond, so let the pressure continue. I’m also hunting for her other accounts since it’s become clear the k9bails account and the @k-9bails​ account are both not her main blog. If anyone has any leads or knows who this person is, please send me a message! I want to find their main blog in case it’s following me so I can block it, and potentially apply pressure there to get her to take my work down on her k9bails account.

~

"Bye! Have a great day at school!" You yelled out the window of your pickup. You watched as your son ran down the walkway towards the line of kids being ushered into the double doors of the school.

"Bye mom!" your third grader yelled back to you as he walked up to the school's double doors.

You waited until he was safely inside before pulling off and merging into the oncoming traffic. You sighed as the cars seemed to move along inch by inch due to the pileup of cars leaving the school. Your mind flashed back to the fight you had with your husband last month as you waited at the stoplight.

You hurriedly ducked down as a beer bottle crashed into the wall where your head used to be. Glass and liquid flew in every direction, some even hitting you in the back of your head as you crouched down. You screamed as your hands flew up to protect your head and face from any flying shards. What followed was a deafening silence causing you to peek from behind your fingers at your assailant. Your husband stood there glaring at you as his chest heaved up and down rapidly.

He had stood up abruptly from his chair causing it to bang loudly against the wall before he had thrown the bottle at you. The sudden outburst was triggered by your questioning of his whereabouts as he had failed to come home the night before. It had taken you all day to work up the nerve to face him. Even going as far as to wait until after dinner as he relaxed in front of the tv before confronting him. You had meekly stood by the wall and fidgeted until he cast a glance in your direction. When asked the question he flew into a blind rage cursing while throwing the nearest object available. Which so happened to be one of the many beer bottles strewn across the carpeted floor near his feet.

He quickly crossed the room pulling you up by your hair from your cowered position. He slammed you against the wall and leaned in close.

"I work all fucking day and this is my only time to myself!" he had yelled in your ear. He pushed you away and you crashed into the nearby end table landing awkwardly on your forearm. You yelped in pain as he slammed the front door behind him leaving abruptly as you lay there sobbing, curling into yourself as you clutched your arm.

The car behind you honked loudly startling you into drive. You hurriedly pulled off into traffic as you headed home towards the Forest Hills trailer park.

As you passed by the newly reconstructed Starcourt mall your thoughts turned back toward your estranged husband. The fight was the last you had seen of him. The word around town was that he had been holed up with Cindy Johnson at her home across town in the suburbs. You would've been lying if you said that you missed him. Honestly, you were grateful that he was gone. No longer were you walking on eggshells in your home. No longer did you have to worry about the long-term damage this was causing to your son. You tried to hide the bruises from him as best as you could but you knew that there was no way he didn't see them occasionally. You also went as far as to let him go to sleep listening to his walkman so he wouldn't have to hear the constant yelling or thumps against the wall.

You pulled into the uneven gravel of your driveway. Your brakes screeched in protest as you pushed the pedal to the floor for the truck to completely stop. That was another thing you'd begged your husband to fix before an accident occurred. He had waved you off dismissively while mumbling that "he would get to it in a bit." That was months ago and was added to the list of things you would have to take care of yourself.

You shut off the engine and laid your head on the tattered wheel. Hopefully, he would stay away this time allowing you and your son to heal and live a normal life without fear. He never raised a hand towards his son to which you were grateful. He saved all of his pent-up anger and frustration at life for you. You had become his punching bag over the years. It had started as a slap here and there, which was followed by broken promises never to do it again. Eventually, the promises and apologies faded, turning into guilt trips stating it was your fault he hit you in the first place.

Lifting your head you unbuckled your seat belt being careful of your arm wrapped securely in a cast. One of the many war wounds you've accumulated over the years. He wasn't always this way. There was a time when he was the man of your dreams. The charming senior football player who'd swept you off your feet. You were a freshman and couldn't believe the most popular guy in school had taken an interest in you. A shy little bookworm who spent most days at home submerged in whatever romance novel you were reading at the time. Eventually, you'd gotten pregnant at the tender age of 17. Your parents had given you an ultimatum. Either you get an abortion or get out of their house. You'd chosen the latter moving in with your boyfriend who swore that he loved you and would take care of you including your unborn child.

That seemed like forever ago. Eight years had passed and you were a shell of who you used to be. Any dreams you had died long ago along with the love you once held for your husband. Fear had taken the place of any emotion left for him. The only thing you lived, for now, was your son, pouring all of your love into him. You made sure that he knew you loved him at all times. Any family activities or holidays were usually spent alone together. On occasion, his father would tag along only to hang around in the background while nursing a beer.

Hopping down from your truck you slammed the rusted door shut with a squeak. You shook your head trying to dispel the unwanted thoughts of him from your head. You swore that this time was different. If and when he decided to come crawling back you were determined not to let him in. It was time to put you and your son first. You'd reunited with your parents who promised to help in any way they could. You had never asked for help and after years of radio silence on both ends, you swallowed your pride and drove to your parent's asking for help. They immediately accepted and after hours of crying and hugging you guys were on your way to repairing your relationship. They also welcomed their grandchild with instant love and regret for the time that had been wasted.

You waved to your neighbor Mrs. Brenda as you walked to your trailer. She grinned and waved back enthusiastically as she rocked in her chair. She was the neighborhood grandma of sorts often making extra home-cooked dishes or sewing clothes for whoever needed them. She never charged or wanted anything in return just a friendly conversation on occasion.

"Hello dearie, how are you doing this morning?" she said sweetly.

"I'm doing fine Mrs. Brenda, just gonna try and get some cleaning done before the little one gets out of school later," you replied.

"Well, I won't keep you then, just come over later kay? I have some leftovers for you and that sweet boy of yours," she stated.

You thanked her while unlocking the door and shutting it. Kicking off your shoes and placing them neatly by the door you made your way toward the bathroom. You dropped the keys on the end table you'd since repaired. There was a much-needed shower with your name on it before you started your tasks.

~

You sighed deeply as you reclined onto your couch. All cleaning had been done and you were now curled up on the couch with your favorite book. The sound of heavy metal and screeching tires coming to an abrupt stop shook you out of your reverie.

Jumping to your feet you ran to the window peeking out into your backyard. You watched as your metalhead neighbor hopped out of his van and ran to his front door. He stopped for a moment fumbling with his keys. "Dammit, son of a bitch!" he yelled stamping his foot on the ground.

Your heart hammered in your chest at his outburst but you were unable to turn away. Peering at him in amusement and a little fear as he ran his hand back through his hair in exasperation further mussing up the frizzy curls that adorned his head. He cast a glance in your direction causing you to hurriedly close the blinds slamming your back against the window.

"Okay calm down maybe he didn't see me." you thought silently. Forcing yourself to take slow breaths as you walked back to your couch. Before you could sit down there was a quick knock at your front door. Butterflies swarmed in your stomach as you crossed the room to answer the door. Peeping through the peephole you saw Eddie Munson standing on your doorstep.

"Hi!" he greeted nervously as you opened your door.

"Hi," you replied. Your hand was gripping the door in nerves. Embarrassed that he had caught you snooping. Surely he had come over to tell you off about it.

"Um, my name is Eddie...Eddie Munson. I live in the trailer right behind yours." he explained.

"I know— we went to high school together briefly. I was a senior when you were a freshman." You felt your cheeks heat up at the overshare you just stated.

He looked at you for a moment before recognition lit up his eyes. "Holy shit" he exclaimed. "How could I forget," he murmured. "You were one of the sweetest girls I ever met at Hawkins High," he said enthusiastically. "You were like the only person who was nice to me and didn't treat me like some sorta freak. I missed you when you graduated," he said sadly clutching at his heart dramatically.

"No w-wories it's been a while since we've spoken to each other so I didn't expect you to remember me." you stammered. You gazed at him finally noticing the spaghetti sauce stains all over his hellfire t-shirt.

You cleared your throat, tearing your eyes away from his shirt. "Um, was there anything that you needed?" you inquired. Glancing down at his shirt again and flicking your eyes to the bits of food stuck in his hair.

"Oh yeah, right— about that." he laughed nervously scratching the back of his head. "Some asshole jocks thought it'd be funny or whatever to dump food on my head at lunch. I left early to go home only to find out that my house key is missing." he rambled holding up a set of keys as proof.

"I was wondering if I could maybe use your bathroom, please? Feel free to say no but I really need your help. My uncle Wanye is working a double and won't be back until later this afternoon" he begged sweetly.

Your eyes widened at his rushed request. You felt uneasy at the thought of letting a boy– no a man into your home. It was no secret that Eddie was twenty-one even though he had yet to graduate. He was four years younger than you but still towered over your small frame. He could easily overpower you if he wanted.

You chewed your lip silently and gazed into his dark brown eyes. They held no malice or mischief only pleading with you silently for help.

Smiling you opened up your door wider and stepped off to the side. "Of course, it's no problem at all, come on in," you responded shutting the door as he walked into your home.

You stood beside him and marveled at the amount of space he took up. Even though he was pretty tall it had less to do with his height and rather that his presence just commanded the attention of anyone close by.

"Thank you so much," he said as he stood awkwardly in your living room. Glancing around the room he asked, "Um where is the bathroom?"

"Right— sorry!" you squeaked. "Down the hall first door on the left. There are also some towels in the cabinet" you instructed. "Do you need a change of clothes?" you inquired.

Nodding his head vigorously he replied, "Yeah, a shirt would be awesome if it's not too much trouble."

"Of course not. I'm pretty sure I have some clothes that are too big for me around here somewhere," you replied smiling.

He gave you a toothy smile in return and turned around heading towards the bathroom.

You watched him walk down the hallway letting himself into the bathroom. You let out a nervous laugh as you inhaled deeply. Forcing yourself to calm the rising of your nerves.

You felt as if you were going to have an anxiety attack. There was a naked man in your home, one who you had not seen in years, currently in your bathroom. No big deal right?

After a few minutes of deep breathing, you managed to calm yourself somewhat. As you entered your bedroom you walked over to your dresser. Digging through items of clothing, you searched for a shirt that could fit Eddie's tall frame. He was neither stocky nor lanky, seeming to fall in the middle of both.

Your cheeks heated up at the thought of his body. You shook your head, dispelling the unwarranted thoughts. The thought of getting involved with anyone left an uneasy feeling in your stomach. You were still trying to break free from your soon-to-be ex-husband. You had no time for another relationship.

A black shirt with red writing caught your eye pulling you from your thoughts. Pulling the shirt from the drawer you realized it was an old Guns N Roses band tee you had worn while you were pregnant with your son. There was a white cross in the middle with five skeletons on each point.

"This will have to do," you thought folding the shirt again and tucking it into your side. You heard the shower still running as walked back into the living room. Flopping down on the couch you picked up your forgotten book. "Might as well do some light reading to pass the time," you mumbled while flipping to the dog-eared page.

After a few minutes, you were totally engrossed again, losing yourself within the fantasy story. The clicking of the bathroom door alerted you to Eddie's presence. You jumped up tripping over your feet and grabbed the shirt laid carefully by your side.

As you peeked around the corner you noticed Eddie's head sticking out of the opening of the door. His wet curls looked less frizzy and more defined than earlier. His bangs hung low on his face nearly obscuring his eyes. It seemed it was time for a trim. Your gaze lowered looking over his full lips and the expanse of his neck that was in view. You noticed drops of water running down his neck into the column of his collarbone.

Eddie cleared his throat with a hint of amusement in his eyes. "Hey! Were you able to find a shirt?" he asked you with a tilted smile.

"Oh y-yes of course," you sputtered, embarrassed that you had gotten caught ogling the poor man. Here you were worrying about your virtue when it was him who should be worried! You quickly crossed the small space in between to hand him the shirt. His fingers grazed yours sending a shiver up your arm from his touch. You stepped back quickly smiling in the process.

"Thank you so much," he said sincerely as he ducked his head back into the bathroom and closed the door.

You stood there for a moment staring into space. What was wrong with you? Why did you just stand there and stare like some sort of ditz? You didn't quite know what to make of your strange behavior. Lucky for you Eddie came out of the bathroom at that moment, clearing all thoughts from your mind.

Walking towards you he stopped in the middle of the room and glanced around awkwardly. "Um, I just wanted to say how much I appreciate you helping me" he blushed staring down at the floor.

"Don't worry about it, no biggie" you smiled waving your hands in front of you. "So...um you said your uncle comes home in the afternoon right? you wondered aloud.

"Right...I was just gonna go sit on the porch until he got home. I would ride around town but I'm kinda low on gas right now." he rushed scratching at the back of his head.

You sighed as you weighed your options. On one hand, you'd rather be alone, you didn't want to embarrass yourself anymore than you already had but on the other hand, you didn't like the thought of him sitting in that heat for hours.

You cleared your throat "I can't let you do that it’s like the training grounds for down below out there" you joked nervously.

His eyes opened wide a moment before he tossed his head back laughing deeply.

You laugh along with him feeling the ice break, easing the tension.

"I wasn't gonna say anything but I agree it's like walking through soup out there" he snickers.

"Well since we both agree that it's hot", you giggle, "how about we find something to pass the time", you suggest. "I have some movies that I just rented from Family Video", you walk over to your tv stand squatting down, and pull out a couple of Vhs tapes.

"I have Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Star Wars - Return of the Jedi, Nightmare on Elm Street, and Fast Times at Ridgemont High," you say while holding up the stack of tapes.

He pretends to think for a moment "As much as I want to pick Nightmare on Elm Street, I think ill go with the first choice" he says smiling.

He sits down on the couch and reclines, the shirt that you gave him riding up showing a light trail of hair leading to his pants. You quickly avert your eyes pretending to study the tapes.

"Maybe I can take a rain check," he says hopefully. Making your eyes snap back to him. Your heart picks up a bit for some reason unbeknownst to you.

"Sure, I'd like that," you grin as you pop the tape in. Strolling over to the couch you take a seat on the opposite end from Eddie. You settle in as the opening credits for the movie started, glancing over at him whose attention was on the tv. Your mind began to wonder, trying to find a reason as to why you so readily accepted his offer to get together again.

You tucked your feet under you getting comfortable as you attempted to focus on the movie. There was no reason to overanalyze anything. It's not like it would be a date or lead to anything, you would keep it strictly platonic right?

Time flew by quickly, you ended up watching Star Wars - Return of the Jedi. Eddies commentary made it way more enjoyable than it would've been without him.

As the ending credits rolled you both looked at each other and smiled. Although the day began weird and sort of awkward, it ended as a pleasant surprise.

"Wow, who knew that you liked Star Wars," Eddie smiled. "You struck me more as a Pretty in Pink type," he teased.

"Well, I guess there is a lot about me that you don't know" you smirked. "I would've pegged you more as blood and gore type only" you joked.

Eddie gasped and laid a hand on his heart. "Why I never," he said dramatically. "You know just because I like heavy metal and have a killer fashion sense doesn't mean I only like that genre!" he scoffed.

Your heart plummeted and you quickly began to apologize. "Oh no— Eddie, I d-didn't m-mean to," you stammered.

Eddie looked at you and laughed. "I'm sorry sweetheart, it was too easy" he wheezed holding his sides.

You threw a small pillow at him and pouted crossing your arms. You turned your head trying to hide the smile on your face.

The slamming of a car door caught both of your attention. You got up and glimpsed out of your window, seeing that Wayne had made it home and was making his way inside.

Looking over at Eddie on the couch who had turned around to face you. "Your uncle just showed up," you explained. You glanced at the clock noting the time. You had about half an hour before you needed to go pick up your son.

He nodded and stood up stretching his arms towards the ceiling. You quickly looked away, wanting to avoid getting caught staring again.

"I have to go and pick up my son from school soon," you said. "I had a great time," you added, mentally slapping yourself for making it sound like a date.

"Me too", he replied walking over to the door and opening it. He stopped and turned around to look at you. " I just want to say again thank you for helping me, you didn't have to but you did anyway and I'm forever in your debt m'lady," he bowed.

Your cheeks and neck flushed embarrassed. You lowered your gaze and smiled, peering up at him through your lashes. "No problem, I had a good time" you beamed.

"Until we meet again," he replied smiling before stepping down your front steps and closing your door.

You lock the door behind him and smile to yourself leaning against the door. That was the most fun you'd had with someone who was an adult in a long time. Conversation came easily with Eddie once the ice had been broken, you found yourself joking around like old friends. The lulls of silence were comfortable, not awkward at all.

A genuine friend is something you could really use at this time with everything you were going through and it seemed as if you could find that in Eddie. You glanced at the clock again noticing that you needed to leave now if you wanted to avoid the hectic school traffic when you picked up your son.

Grabbing your keys you quickly turn off the lights and slip your shoes on, hurrying out the door and closing it behind you.

~

You walked down the steps of the courthouse with your mom and son in tow. You had officially filed your petition for a divorce from your husband. Your legal reason was for physical and emotional abuse. The lawyer your mother and father helped you obtain assured you that with the numerous police reports, hospital records, and the no contact order you'd obtained, you would have no problem with the proceedings.

You, however, weren't so sure of that, you have a nagging feeling that your husband wouldn't roll over easy. Anything you ever wanted or enjoyed he had taken away from you and destroyed it. The only thing you had left was your son. You squeezed his hand for reassurance, he smiled up at you showing his missing front tooth. The lawyer had also put in the motion for you to file for sole custody.

You knew in your heart that no good would come out of your son having any contact with his dad. Hell, he barely even knew him at all and he had lived with him most of his life. The only thing he knew about him was to stay out of his way and to only speak to him in passing or in response. Your heart aches for your son at the relationship that could've been with his father.

Inhaling a deep breath and then slowly exhaling, you release all negative energy and thoughts. "Hey guys, how about we go to Scoops Ahoy for some ice cream huh?" you said excitedly trying to uplift the solemn mood.

"That sounds great dear," your mother replied touching your shoulder.

You turn to your son "Does that sound okay to you honey?" you smile.

He jumped up and down happily "Can we have pizza too, pretty please? he begged, clasping his hands together under his chin.

You pretended to think about it " Hmm, I guess that's okay as long as you make sure to brush your teeth really good before you go to bed." you grinned.

He hugged you as he began to pull you and your mother along faster to the car. "C'mon, I can't wait to try their new flavors," he yelled excitedly.

~

You sighed happily as you stepped out of your shower. With all of the stress and anxiety from earlier at the courthouse washed away, you felt at ease. Your son was finally tucked in after the pizza and ice cream he inhaled. After your mother had dropped you off, your son asked if you would play Battleship with him. Even though you were tired you didn't have it in you to deny him once he gave you his puppy dog eyes.

So after a few rounds, he had taken a bath and brushed his teeth. You gave him his headphones making sure that they were not too loud before kissing him goodnight and tucking him in.

You dried your body off and rubbed in your favorite lotion the best you could with your good arm. You couldn't wait until your appointment with your doctor so you could have it removed. At this point, it was more of a hindrance than anything.

Tying the belt around your fluffy pink robe, you made your way to your room. A knock at your front door stopped you in your tracks. Furrowing your brow, you made your way to the door wondering who it could be at this time of the night.

You stood on your tip toes to look out the peephole. Seeing Eddie on the other side rocking nervously back and forth. You glanced down at the unflattering robe you had on and groaned. "I look like a grandma in this thing." "Oh well," you thought as you hurriedly opened the door.

Eddie paused when you opened the door his face falling into a smile at the sight of you. His eyes roamed over your body quickly before settling back on your face. "Hey," he said sheepishly.

"Hi," you replied as you stepped out onto the porch.

"I hope I didn't wake you, I saw that your light was on and I couldn't stop myself," he rambled nervously.

"No, you didn't actually," you quickly replied. You didn't want him to think he was disturbing you and leave.

"How have you been?" he asked tilting his head to the side causing some curls to dangle over his eyes.

You tore your eyes away to look into his brown eyes before replying. "It's been hectic around here lately" you answered honestly. "I didn't mean to blow you off," you said apologetically.

"It's okay, you don't have to apologize," he assured you. "I figured I should just come over and check on you, see how you were doing," he stated.

You leaned against the frame of your door crossing your arms. "It's kinda late for that don't you think," you teased.

He blushed prettily as he rubbed a hand across the back of his neck. "Yeah, I guess your right about that," he laughed sheepishly. "What I wanted to know was if you were busy this Saturday, maybe I could come over for a movie night?" he wondered hopefully.

You mentally checked your calendar, you had nothing planned and you were sure you could get your parents to watch your son for you. "Sure," you said after some thought. "Feel free to bring some more movies if you like so we can have more to choose from," you said.

He grinned and pumped his fist in the air. "How is eight o clock for you," he asked excitedly.

"That sounds perfect," you replied gigging at his outburst. "I'll see you then," you said backing up into your home.

"See you later neighbor," he laughed. He turned around and walked towards the worn path to his trailer behind yours.

You closed the door locked it and walked towards your bedroom. Sitting down you thought about Eddie, you were glad he took the initiative to come over. It had been two months since you last saw him. Your conflicting schedules had made it hard for your paths to cross.

You were either at work or your taking your son to basketball practice. Also with your impending divorce, your free time had become even more scarce. Your eyes fluttered as sleep threatened to overtake you.

You took off your robe and placed it at the foot of your bed, too tired to hang it up. Slipping under your covers you fell into a deep sleep.

Tale I - Dinnertime

“Dinner!” Melina called for about the third time in frustration, sitting with her husband(?) - their relationship was complicated - at the dining table, plates of food and glasses of vodka all around. She had been faced with crickets the previous two times she tried to alert her daughters and practical-daughter.

Finally, the three women arrived. 

“You don’t need to yell,” Yelena muttered as she sat down. causing Alexei to laugh and Melina to send her a brief look of disbelief and annoyance. 

Natasha just smiled at her family’s antics. “In my defense, I had to drag this one out of bed,” she defended, gesturing to a sleepy Y/N.

The “this one” in question just let out a grunt and, as soon as she sat down, plopped her head in her blonde friend’s lap without warning.

Yelena faked a huff of annoyance to maintain her tough exterior but nonetheless played with Y/N’s hair. “You tired, bub?” She murmured quietly, only getting a hum in response, so she directed the question at her older sister.

Natasha just shrugged before going to take a bite of her food. “Maybe she didn’t sleep well?”She offered as an explanation quietly, so as to not disturb the resting one.

Dinner continued on as normal, but as they wrapped up, Yelena went to shake Y/N and tell her to eat, because eating three meals a day was important; however, she found a different scene unfolding. Y/N . . . Fell asleep.

Yelena couldn’t deny that this was absolutely adorable. Butterflies flew around in her stomach at the mere realization that Y/N felt comfortable enough to sleep on her. She couldn’t help but wonder how exactly she managed to fall asleep, though, because surely this position couldn’t be comfortable?

“Y/N, wake up,” she whispered, gently shaking her shoulder.

Y/N’s eyes fluttered open, a haze of confusion clouding her orbs for a moment, before she slowly sat up and looked around.

“Welcome back to the land of consciousness, Sleeping Beauty,” Natasha quipped, making Yelena, Alexei, and Melina smile, meanwhile Y/N just groaned, annoyed at the disturbance.

“Why are you so tired? You missed dinner?” Yelena asked, moving some hair out of Y/N’s face with concern lacing her voice as Melina and Alexei gathered everyone’s plates to clean up. 

Y/N turned to her, wearing a pout. “I just want to sleeeep, Yel,” she mumbled. 

Both Natasha and Yelena chuckled. The latter of the two stood up and practically dragged her girlfriend up from her seat and got her to the couch. Once they sat down, Y/N immediately threw her arms around Yelena and in minutes had fallen back asleep. 

“Y/N’s about the only human on this planet who can be that affectionate with you without getting punched,” Natasha remarked, only half-joking, as she walked over and joined the couple. 

“And you,” Yelena reminded her. What can she say? She had a soft spot for her big sister.

“Not even Mama?” Melina called out from the kitchen, over the sink water running. 

“Or Papa?” Alexei added. 

Yelena rolled her eyes and loudly shushed them. “Y/N’s sleeping!” 

Tale II - Theatre 

It was Y/N’s birthday! To celebrate, the family had thrown her a surprise birthday party and, after dinner, they took her to see a play. 

It was about 3/4 through the first act when Y/N’s head landed on Yelena. The former Red Room agent glanced down at her with a smile. “Are you enjoying the show?” She whispered, and got a nod in response. 

Then, the intermission came and Yelena noticed that Y/N had fallen asleep. She just smiled and put her arm around her, not bothered, thinking it was rather cute. 

“Is she asleep?” Natasha asked, looking over. At Yelena’s nod, the redhead continued with a chuckle and, “Oh. wow. Who knew someone could sleep so much?”

Yelena just shrugged, and kissed Y/N’s forehead to wake her. “Are you enjoying the play?” She asked, wanting to be sure she hadn’t just dragged her to something she didn’t like.

Y/N looked up at her, drawing her eyebrows together in confusion. “Yeah, why?” She said.

Yelena’s features softened. “You fell asleep,” she told her, smiling, amused.

Y/N quickly looked around and spotted Natasha, who was poorly concealing her giggles, and her cheeks burned red. “Oops?” She said, not having an excuse for this.

“Are you sure you’re not the real life Sleeping Beauty? ‘Cause it seems like you are,” Natasha teased with a smirk, shifting in her seat.

Y/N stuck her tongue out at her in retaliation.

“Play nice,” Yelena warned, patting her friend’s head and not even meaning her words. The way they all interacted filled her with happiness.

Tale III - Barn

“Does anyone know where Y/N is?” Yelena called out in frustration as she pounded down the thin steps, looking around in defeat.

“Last I saw she was in her room,” Natasha said as she passed her.

Yelena groaned, leaning against the rail and trying to think. Where could her friend be in this tiny house?

Aha, that was it!

She wasn’t in the house.

Spinning on her heel, Yelena assumed that since she couldn’t find Fanny either, Y/N was either walking her dog or feeding the pigs.

Well.

She found that she was right and wrong.

Y/N had definitely gone outside to do those two things, but she hasn’t finished either of them, and Yelena couldn’t find it within herself to be the slightest bit annoyed. Because oh my god, how was her friend the most adorable thing ever??

As soon as Yelena stepped into the barn where the Melina’s pigs lived, she found her friend sitting against the wall, asleep. The pigs roamed around her and Fanny was almost supporting her, as Y/N was leaning on her.

Yelena quickly took out her phone and snapped a picture before kneeling down in front of her. By now, she had become a pro at waking her friend up without alarming her. When she did come to, she looked around, before facepalming.

“I took Fanny out here to play with the pigs,” she explained, muffled through her hand.

Yelena just laughed. “Don’t worry about it,” she said. Glancing around, she added, “How about you go inside and take a shower? You smell like barn . . . and, ya know, pig.”

Y/N groaned, grumbling under her breath something Yelena didn’t catch, and stood up, heading for the house.

Yelena watched her with a smile until she disappeared in the house and then crouched down next to her her dog.

“Thanks for taking care of our girl, Fan,” Yelena said, petting Fanny’s head, and then picking up her leash and following Y/N inside.

PLAGIARISM ALERT~! 🤚🛑

Yup, youuu guessed it. Here’s another list of Wattpad users stealing works from tumblr and posting it to their accounts without asking for permission.* If you’ve given the person permission great! But chances are most on this list have not. Please don’t send unnecessary hate to these people, just inform them if your work is stolen and report their links. Also, please reblog to boost. Chances are this will not show up in tags and it needs to get out there. I will also not add a read now, because everyone needs to see this no matter how bulky it is.

Urls might have also changed/ they’re not on tumblr anymore in this too so if you know what they’ve changed to or if they left please let them know! Now on to the list! 

First we have this one!

Cant stop by @lokirels 

Black lace for Beginner, Dog tags and storage units, by @moteldwelling 

Lost Control by @navybrat817

On his Shoulder by @whateveriwant

Pretty face on a pretty neck @whistlingwillows

Around your neck, That black tee by @beyondspaceandstars

Two Servings by @marvel-diaries

Next we have this collection. It’s mainly Bucky x reader HOWEVER they have stories for other fandoms as well. There’s a lot here so I’m only going to list the people, they are titled by what assume your one shot probably was title with I’ll put how many times too.

@ gaybybirth (can’t tag them) @poeticblissme @221bshrlocked (2x) @bitsandbobsandstuff (2x) @stuckydealer @ugh-supersoldiers @notimetoblog @jaamesbbaarnes or jjamesbarnes (maybe? Idk there were a few of ya’ll that popped up in this and it might be another person) @buckybarnesstar @prettyyoungtragedy @redgillan @avasparks @ceruleanbucky @ xmidnight-moonlightx (can’t tag them either) @ cleolemonfanfiction (might not be there url anymore) @nev3rfound @ agent-styleson (might not have the url or left) @ thottybarnes (can’t tag/i think their url changed) @revengingbarnes (2x) @ babybarnesy (can’t tag) @melodramaticfanatic @borkingbarnes @sinner-as-saint @ jewelofwinter (can’t tag) @baroquebucky @sincerelymlg @ jupiterbucky (can’t tag) @ flightofthefantasieson (can’t tag) @ fatbottombarnes (can’t tag) @sebbystanimagines (5x) @sergeanttucker @ hannie-writes-marvel (can’t tag) @ spacemansam (don’t think that’s their url anymore but they have a bunch) @ fandommaniacx (can’t tag) @littledarlinwrites (2x) @becs-bunker (3x) @the--sad--hatter @thebuckboibarnes @angryschnauzer @heavenbarnes 

On to the third list. Once again there’s a lot however most of the people in the list I can’t tag/ they’re url isn’t attached to them anymore. So either they didn’t credit properly or it’s been long enough they original authors have changed their names.  Make sure you check their other ‘works’ because they also have stolen stories on their page.

And then lastly is a user that was in my last post that still has their story up with a bunch of stolen work too. 

I’m sure there’s more out there, but that’s what I’ve found for now at least in the marvel fandom. This isn’t including the like four others I found for other fandoms. Please do not take our work and post it some place else unless we specifically state it’s alright. 

*this is also only stuff I’ve found where they’ve blatantly stated they took it from Tumblr and that they didn’t write it. The only way you can tell if your work has been posted some places else is to look it up on a plagiarism site like Quetext.

[ut-girl666]

Okay, okay. So we have (basically) canon Poet!Megatron. but, hear me out here - what about Author!Megatron?? Like, writes books, not just poetry.

Personally, I think of Fantasy Genre being what he writes, and he ends up with a good couple books. And like, they’re really well written. Beautiful plot, fantastic characters, gives plenty of development to each of them, and whole arcs, usually completed before the book ends.

Even better; he specifically tries to make them LGBTQ+ friendly. He makes lots of diverse fun characters, with different identities of all kinds. Particular interesting thing he does specifically for his repulsed readers, is he actually warns when there will be smut or something close in a chapter. This is because he’s a Repulsed!AroAce. And further more, when scenes like that actually happen (not in the first two, only implied), he actively admits, no, he didn’t write them, one of his ‘editors’ did.

He also tends to write his books with lots of warnings, and usually puts a page between each chapter, specifically so readers aren’t immediately tossed into something they weren’t alright with, because he knows that people have trauma, and PTSD, because he does himself, and doesn’t want to put his readers into a bad spot, because of his writing. He’s a very friendly writer.

And now into the funnies of Author!Megs.

One day Elita drags him onto Twitter and Tumblr. He effectively does normal twitter stuff, and he talks to some fans/readers, lets them ask stuff, etc. Tumblr, he talks, interacts a little more, and reblogs a lot, he also has a few little blogs - one for reblogging things, one for just his own talking and stuff (inc when he comments on his weblogs outside of tags - those go on both.), one where he is magical author man. Readers can talk to him there, and see when he makes new content just for fun. They love it!

And when they do the asking, it depends which he’s on. Twitter - he’s serious, mature, and very adult. Tumblr - it’s like he looked at his full ass inbox, and did some drugs before answering them. He is so fun on Tumblr.

“You said [Character] does [Hobby] in the first book, and they still do in [Later book]. Did they get any better?”

Twitter Megs: It depends. Time may only tell if they did. Full answer on tumblr - [link]

Tumblr Megs:

lol they still suck ass.

Also, Elita, being an Artist on Tumblr with her own characters, world, lore, and stuff, knows him. She loves to make him things, and has read his books. She likes them. Eventually once Ariel and Orion were bondmates, and she started having to spend more time with him (Orion and Megs shared a house for like, their v. of six years, basically- and they were gonna be in-laws, gotta learn to get along with the family. kinda. at least for dinner.), they got along. She became his beta-reader for the third book, and his editor. (She suggested the smut, and wrote it. The explicit part is on her tumblr/ao3, megs didn’t let that go through, only suggestive/implied! He got really hot and bothered by it… in the negative way. He likes it, until the actual sex. Then *scream* SLAM! So it all goes on ao3.)

She also stands up for him when people steal his shit. He doesn’t really do much besides say ‘hey, please don’t copy/steal my stuff’, as he’s new to the internet. She’s been around since he was fourteen, and she used to be like that, but now she’s aged up, and she will not tolerate theft!! So she screams it from the rooftops, and alerts people “hey! They steal/copy other ppl’s content! Stay away from them! >:(.” it’s something she does for a lot of people, and Megs is included bc she knows that just like her, he hold his blorbos close and dear to his heart.

Ppl also hate him in the second book/prequel, he does the thing, and kills a character for the first time, especially one that had become so beloved!! He didn’t like doing it. He cried, a lot. He hated having to bring them back home to him. But he happily put them out into the world for ppl to make fics about them.

That being said, he doesn’t like it when people make fics where they mess with specific established stuff (sexuality, race, etc.), but otherwise, if it’s just an AU (Cafe!AU, Royalty!AU, Highschool!AU, etc.), other little things, (fluff, angst, etc.), or even something else (fix-it fic, song-fic, slice of life, how a pair may have got together, etc.) he loves them!! He loves all of that, to see people being inspired, tossing his babies into scenarios, making what-if?s about them, maybe letting them have a break with some fluff, or whatever! It’s his favorite! And he loves to scroll and see the things. So every time his kills a character, he puts a tag around their neck, and gives them back to the fan base to play with.

I’m begging you lot, think about it!! Just an idea, but what if?! Wouldn’t it be fun?
