#and there’s a couple fanfics I’ve read

[lifeseriesnovelproject]

Welcome to the project!

Hi! We're the Life Series Novel Project, a group of 3 writers with the goal of adapting every Life series season into a novel, one book per season. This is a YA (young adult) adaptation so blood, violence, and occasionally swearing will be included. All books will be free for download online here and on our Bluesky (@lifenovelproject.bsky.social) once we complete them.

If you want to help support the project, we'll have applications for guest artists and beta readers open soon, or you can just share this project by reblogging! Life series members are welcome to interact and know about this project, but please don't pressure or spam them about reading this. This is an absolute labor of love from a few massive life series fans, and we hope you'll enjoy the final product.

Now, let's meet the writers!

You may call me Rose or Rosie (@rosiesweetberries), and I’ve been a life series fan since Secret Life. I’m the main author for this project. I’ve written a couple of AUs but I’m also a self-published author looking forward to sharing my own stories. My favorite genre is horror so that is what my novels are most likely going to be based around. Although this particular project is a bit different of course. My favorite lifers are Tango, Impulse and Skizz but doesn’t mean I don’t watch everyone else’s pov straight afterwards. You know it’s me when you see 🌹

I'm Moss (@mossfeathers), and I've been a life series fan since way back in Double Life! I'm one of the primary editors for this project. I'm a recreational writer and I love to write horror and dark, creepy stuff, but I don't post most of what I write since it's not usually fics. My favorite lifer is Bigb, but I watch pretty much everyone and my other favorites are Etho and Jimmy. I'll be signing off my posts with Mod 🪴

My names Phil (@ respectundead44) and I've been a life series fan since before Last life started. I'm the other primary editor for this project. I've written many short stories and fanfics, many of which can be found pinned at the top of my blog. I love horror and psychology but I also dabble with some fluff. Though it rarely ends well.... :) My favourite lifers are Imp and Skizz but there's rarely a pov I miss. Mod 🤘

Thank you for reading! If you have any further questions, our askbox is open for anything. Remember to check back in soon for beta reader and artist applications!

I feel like we as a society are running low on the “watching the show/movie(s)/reading the book(s)” fics. Or do I just have to go to Wattpad for that? I swear tho I can’t find like ANY on ao3 besides the ones that have a single chapter and it’s just setting up the premise, no actual plot consumption occurring. Where did all those authors go?? When I was a child I would find a new reading/watching the whatever fic every day. Or maybe I was just in a fandom full of like minded individuals. But I don’t see them anymore. They are my favorite type of fics sorry not sorry I’m not ashamed I’ll scream it from the rooftops……..just as long as I get more of them

[captainhysunstuff]

A reactionary comic about rereading a fic that I recently recommended that was way darker than I remembered, lol. I still love it for how they pretty much drive each other crazy, but that word choice and the consent issues... *cringes* At least there are valid warnings beforehand, and the first fic was pretty PG. Sorry. *laughs sheepishly*

[edwinisms]

so damn close to finishing writing my first fic for this show but my head feels like it’s gonna explode from writing an entire 3.3K theoretical analysis paper for like five hours straight and if I look at my computer screen much longer I might just fucking die so. here we are. suffering.

[reenbowspimkle]

i love how the entire fandom was like oh yea izzy loses his toe and has some balance issues for a while

only for izzy to actually lose everything below his knee

[devilsrecreation]

I gotta wonder where Pua was during Season 2. I like to think he’s still alive so he was either woken up in addition to Makuu’s float or he was sleeping soundly in his own little spot away from any noise

Oh my god, I’d love to see his reaction to what the hell he missed when he wakes up if it’s the latter lmao

Like Pua comes out, sees the Pridelands in poor state and he’s like “Good morning, my frie-what the hell happened here?”. Then he goes to either Basi or Makuu and they catch him up. But even then he’s just like “….Excuse me, what?”

Oof he’s in for a surprise when he learns his own son tried to kill Simba (that’s when he and Tamka’s relationship becomes strained)

Top 3 cast constellations/line-ups

Tommy, Spencer, Courtney, Shayne and Damien

Triple A (Arasha, Angela, Amanda) + Courtney + Chanse

I don’t think this has happened a lot with the current cast yet, but I’d love more line-ups where duos compete with each other! (similar to 1,2,switch, but with diff games/concepts!) so like Ian & Anthony + Shayne & Damien + Angela & Amanda/Chanse + ofc Spencer & Tommy and so on! (also someone needs to bring back more Court & Olivia! I miss seeing these two on screen together!)

Top 3 ships

Spommy -> this has def become a very obvious fact about me by now lmao; and I entirely blame @jovenshires 🩷 and @soupy-girl 💛 and their fanfics, for getting me into this ship in the first place! (+ all the other fanfic authors who fueled my love for these two idiots even more <3)

Ianthony -> they are what got me truly involved with this fandom in the first place! (I love “Angst with a happy ending” fanfics so much and their story is literally that!)

Shaymien -> The “and they were roomates” of it all...

-> All of them made the list mainly bc I enjoy their on screen friendship dynamic so much! And then there are lil bits of bg info they drop now and again that fuels new ff headanons/concepts and make me go 👀!!! 😹🙈

some honorable mentions in the tags:

I ran this morning AND wrote some AND made art and I’m so proud of me

[dragonbe-writing]

I already have something in the works I just don’t know if I should post it :) it would have a romance plot (maybe a couple) (i would also make an Ao3 specifically for this purpose)

For 'Never Have I Ever' - No Powers AU?

Ooh I haven’t, and honestly I don’t know if I ever would? Like…I watch superhero media largely for the powers. Even in fanfics, I usually read fics where they still have their powers, because that’s what makes them interesting imo

And same for ATLA—the bending, its lore…that’s the core appeal along with the found family stuff! ATLA wouldn’t be the show it is without its rich bending worldbuilding.

(also, ships are generally a secondary consideration for me, so that alone is not usually enough to get me to read a no-powers AU. I only say that because usually that’s why people write no-powers AUs, though ofc there are exceptions 😅)

If I really had to, it would probably be a fic that still has the characters in similar roles. Ex: if it’s a Westallen fic, then Barry would still be saving people, and Iris would still be a journalist. From that angle, exploring how their relationship evolves could still be interesting—keep the core of who they are as people, just take the powers away. But honestly, the closest I’ll ever get to messing with powers in fics is probably a power-swap of some kind 😂

never have i ever fic ask game!

^^^^^^^^ THIS!!!

I’ve talking about this for so long!

Being a part of one minority does not shield you from harming another. I recognize that this post is about original fiction, but god this is genuinely a really huge problem in fandom:

A lot of you will marvel at queer representation….so long as it’s between two conventionally attractive white dudes.

In fandom, female characters are usually fit into several ‘acceptable’ categories. Either they’re shipped with another female character and become the lesbian couple of ‘sense’ that tell the main mlm couple to “get their shit together and just kiss already”, or all of their flaws and complexities are erased and they’re turned into the ‘girlboss’, a plot device at most. Female characters are almost always ‘the reasonable ones’, while the guys get to have actual personalities.

Or even worse, if a female character displays any flaws too difficult to just erase, they’re turned into the ‘bitch’. This is any female character who’s forced into the antagonist role in order to further the plot. She’s the one who tries to sabotage the main couple, or just someone who’s overly mean towards a ‘poor misunderstood’ male character. Female characters of color especially get pushed into this category, even if they’re the very opposite of this in canon.

What really ties these categories together is that the female characters are all turned into accessories. Either they’re emotional support, plot devices or just pure antagonists, they almost never have goals of their own.

Basically every fandoms I’ve interacted with force their female characters into these roles in one way or another, and it’s honestly real fucking disappointing.

“My story has so much gay rep in it!” Awesome. How are you treating your female characters btw
