Thinking about that time when a popular artist was a prick to me personally (claimed that I "baited" them for a conflict when all I did was pointing out something in lore contradicting their claim, without any rudeness or condescension, and basically told me to go hang out with other autists instead of bothering them) but the reason I blocked them was not that, it was the fact that they've admitted on not even caring about the source material and just using scraps from it to do their own thing.

#fandomry rambles #I can excuse asserting ego at my expense and acting as though my knowledge of lore is an offence but-#-I draw the line at taking advantage of an IP to get attention easier instead of 'just making an OC'#there is a line between creative liberties and not caring about source material!!! they are not the same thing!#and FANdoms are places for FANs of something! not for some pricks to advertise themselves!#again I just pointed out something that seemed like honestly forgetting or not knowing #and I instantly commented on how alternative they suggested wasn't bad and how it could still work!#but because they have super frail ego they perceived it as a personal attack apparently #and since Anna unblocked me right after to stalk me it just feels like they mocked me within their group later #again I wonder why popular artists with high skill but very little care for canon are SO insecure?#everyone admires them everyone wants to be their friend everyone draws fanart of their designs and ships #and yet slight event out of the line makes them turn into that one Wojack with a crying face behind smug mask #like how do you shovel notes and have more attention than what you can give back and STILL are this-#-insecure? really popularity can't heal you #if you fellow nobody artists feel as though your art being noticed would heal you: no it would not #honestly as for care for canon they already gave signal by boasting about prettyfying micolash because-#-they preferred 'aesthetic'#it is just something I've neglected because I was looking at redesigning characters differently #but seeing awful bimbo marikas for two years taught me better ngl #really I am dying to see them try to pull this one out with a female character #no really. try to pull the 'she looks ugly but I want me aesthetic so I polished her'.#hate double standards regarding drawing the character depending on their gender #but yeah in case you could not tell touching Bloodborne with ten yards stick just triggered a bad memory #I just.... I still love that game story and characters. I can feel it looking at these posts.#I really am the 'just make an OC' person #they should become friends with Eugene (champion of not caring for the source material) if not already
