Be careful with commission work it’s a quick way to ruin fandom spaces and make money off of ip that isn’t yours
Maybe write something you can sell legally and ethically like a novel that’s built on your own ideas and not a fan work or at least hide it better like 50 shades and After
Hi Anon! Thank you for your concern.
Regarding my commissions - they were and are specifically for that person only, and they are closed currently. I write original character content for pirates and monsters in a land of fantasy - delivered specifically for that person in their own spaces - not for the public.
Here on Tumblr and AO3, I write fics, mini fics, drabbles, and headcanons for free and on my own time. I love doing it, and the love I feel for the fandom is tangible and thick.
The only reason I opened my coms to begin with is I had a personal expense I couldn't have met with my current non-existent income. My prescription lenses broke, and we're irreplaceable and unrepairable according to the optometrist. I didn't want to be like "Hey, so, this happened and I'm struggling". I'd prefer to earn it instead of asking for funds and aid from the community here. I don't like feeling helpless, and this was a way I felt I could earn my new glasses.
Truth be told, I prefer trades. I love my OC and her ships, and I love seeing interpretations of her on others' dashes. Makes me all happy seeing Tobiuo interact with other people. And honestly: I just love writing. Creating specifically curated content for people with their OCs interacting makes me feel all gushy and happy - especially for an exclusive way to interact with their OCs and their Canon ships.
I've also found in this experience alone, there are so much more hate for fandom creators in their writing than artists with their pieces. I'm not giving you hate in any way, anon. I absolutely feel for your concern. My experience with content creators with OCs and shipping, or 'paid work' has been exclusively negative. Aside from those wanting to compensate me for the time I spend with their original characters and their Canon ships: my asks, DMS, and comments have all pointed me in one direction: "How dare you try to make money off fics. Your words are for you and us here, fuck you." "Your words ain't worth shit." and "You're a horrible person. Kill yourself." (The amount of death threats has been mad lately, and it's been hard to deal with).
This is the quickest way of destroying an author creating for free. All I wanted to do was write some pieces for people exclusively, and it's been a complete contrast as to how it goes for artists drawing your original characters. Could you imagine if this kind of attention was given to those completing digital art as opposed to writing? Gosh. The fandom would suffer in one way or another.
Honestly, anon. I'm having a hard time these days. All I want is to write and build off the world I love so much for something I do in my own time. It's been a hard, learning journey. Truthfully, I don't think I'll be opening my comms again. I have not enjoyed this experience, and it's making my love for the fandom slowly dwindle to a halt.
Again, thank you for your ask. I enjoy the time and concern you've spent with me here. It's made me take a time out and think about what I want to do in terms of writing, and it's been a big learning experience for me.
Also: If I was to write a novel, it would likely be something in a land of monsters - likely my original character and her culture interacting with humans and cross-cultural relationships. That would be fun to explore one day. For now, I'm just a snail trying my best to navigate parenthood and experiencing an outlet for the love I have for One Piece.
Love you, and I hope you're having a beautiful day 🖤🐌

Just... let people do with fictional characters what they want?
Idk if this is a hot take of mine or something but:
I just saw a TikTok that was like: OMG guys do you remember the dark times of the MHA fandom when the following things were a thing:
Chloe Takami
Bakugo Poster
DabiHawks Video
Dekubowl
"How do you feel about your ship with Eri?"
TodoBakuDeku
Todoroni and Cheese
"Somebody once told me it's your power, Todoroki"
Deku x All Might
Yagami Yato
Erin Clover
"Hey UA, Bakugo Katsuki is NOT a monster!"
"Todoroki is a real person!"
Angry pomeranian
Ship Wars
Todoroki gives birth series
"Kacchan, we were five"
Smol bean deku/Broccoli boy
"It's bigger than All Might's!"
Layla Todoroki
And, like ????
Okay, first of all, I have no idea what they mean with like half of that stuff, tbh - must have completely went past me
I don't know what DabiHawks video they're referring to, what/who Chloe Takami, Erin Clover, or Layla Todoroki is (I assume they are OCs?). I have no idea what "Todoroki and Cheese" is about or what "Somebody once told me it's your power, Todoroki" is about. Same with the "Kacchan, we were five." Or "It's bigger than All Might's".
The thing I definitely agree with that's crossing a line is when that one person, during a comic con panel, asked the VA of Midoriya what he thinks about "his" ship with Eri. That's involving a REAL person and made the Voice Actor very uncomfortable. That is not okay.
The Bakugo Poster incident is also... yeah, well, very unfortunate.
The thing about Todoroki being a real person was satire in my eyes? But I could be wrong about that lol
So first of all (I'm going on a little rant here, please excuse me):
If people make fun of other people's OCs, that's absolutely appalling. I get that OCs aren't for everybody, that's completely fine. But just let people do and write whatever they want? As long as it doesn't hurt you, literally: what's your problem? Don't like, don't read?! Simple as that. People put in a lot of time and effort for creating content with OCs and coming up with them and literally, they do it for FUN. To COPE. Or simply because they felt like it. What the hell does that have to do with you? Just, like, grow up and chill out?
About the ships: DabiHawks, Dekubowl, TodoBakuDeku, All Might, etc. - again: don't like, don't read?! I get that not every ship is for everyone, but nobody is forcing people to read stories? So, if you don't want to... just... don't? Just look at the tags, think "Oh, mhm yeah that's not my cup of tea" and move tf on? Find a story with a ship that you DO like and be happy people are sharing their thoughts, stories, fanart, content, etc. with you FOR FREE? I truly don't get it. The amount of fanfic authors that leave fandoms because they literally get bullied in the comments (and receive death threats, like ???) is scary. I swear, every other day someone in the AO3 subreddit feels so incredibly disheartened by the vile shit people comment on their stories simply because the commentor doesn't like the ships or think they're wrong? I get it when it makes people uncomfortable when it's a ship that involves, let's say teacher x student relationships or something. But then again: don't like, don't read. Move on with your life. Nobody has to like everything. Also, some stories literally exist to make people uncomfortable. To make them think. To help cope with something that might have happened to them (looking at the dub con/noncon tag here). I mean, has media literacy taken such a downfall in the past few years that people lack critical thinking skills? Some books solely exist for the purpose of giving you an icky feeling — take Lolita for example. It impacts your life in no way whatsoever, that stuff exists that you don't like if it does.not.hurt.you. IT IS FICTION ffs
Same with Yagami Yato. Don't like, don't listen, don't engage. Don't make fun of her/them or the people who like the stuff. Simple as that? Why do people have to shit on things that bring other people joy or a form of escapism? I truly don't get it.
"Hey UA, Bakugo Katsuki is NOT a monster." Okay, we get it. I get if you think that video kinda came out of nowhere (saw it for the first time a few months ago, so I was late to the party) but that creator just had some fun with a story and even created a fan video of it including their OC in the video. People bullying someone simply because they have fun doing something they deem as "cringe" is not okay, and I have no idea when people started thinking it was?
Just... in general. I don't get why people bully people about stuff that literally has NO IMPACT on their own lives. Especially if it's about a fictional story, with fictional characters, in a fictional setting? Just... have some fun, be creative, and have a good time? I can promise you, the people who make fun of others for things they deem "cringe" do plenty of shit others think is "cringe", too.
Sorry for the rant. It just really rubs me the wrong way if people make others feel like crap for things they like. Just let people be, maybe?
And all the comments on that tiktok agreed, too.
If you ask me, making people feel like shit, publicly shaming them, and bullying them out of fandoms (which are supposed to be safe and fun!) is actually what's real "cringe" here.

finally admitted to myself that ok maybe i doooo ship snily 🙄 the thing is that i cannot find fics… i mean i *can* but there’s too many and i don’t know where to start……. so this is me asking for recommendations from the only jily shipper i know of (i’m not in the fandom a lot lol). i think it would be cool to read about them getting together as adults or something where snape is a little bi (turns out i also ship snape and sirius…. whatever ok!!!) but truly anything you have i’m accepting hehe i trust you! thank you bye!!! ps; i miss a&i aka the fic that i love so much and that i shamelessly recommend to literally everyone i know xxxxx
hi!
I'm gonna be real with you; there is very little Snily and even fewer stories I've found that do them both justice. I find that many make Lily a damsel in distress with like, her only driving motive to be a mother, and James is ALWAYS a POS. And Snape becomes an alpha male who is too controlling and it just skeeves me out. Lily loses all autonomy the second they do the deed and it's just not my thing. Even with the few Snape/OC fics I've read; if Snape is not like feral and nasty and with someone who can match that energy, I have no interest in it.
I have two major stories that come to mind with A+++ Snily. I have discovered recently that I am somewhat of a Snape Snob when it comes to fics where I only enjoy it if he is an unhinged, bitter little asshole who is a little nuts and Lily is like, the only one who can stomach him and keep him somewhat calm, but she can absolutely match his level of crazy if/when she needs to.
Come Once Again and Love Me - laventadorn
I read this nearly a decade ago and I haven't picked it up again because it just breaks my heart and puts it back together. It's a "Snape gets a do-over" but he does NOT want the do-over - he doesn't want anything to do with Lily at all at first - but the author does such a beautiful job of showing Snape as a bitter 30-something-year-old back as a teen just as his life took a dark turn. And Lily is AMAZING - her grief over losing her life old life (when she thinks of Harry it's gutting) but finding Snape again is just - UGH. She doesn't put up with his shit. She matches him and doesn't back down. She's awesome. A true queen.
A Dream Carved in Stone - diadelphous
I forgot about this one for a long time and recently reread it - I think I accidentally took inspiration from it with a certain potion LOL so I am giving full credit here - BUT - THIS is the best Snily I have ever read. It's during the first war where Lily and James never got together and Dumbledore approaches Lily and asks her to get Snape to confess he's a Death Eater. Their love story is - SO. FUCKING. GOOD.
They are both a little broken and a little crazy, but when people ask me how it would've gone down if Snape had known about Lily being pregnant, THIS story is how it would've gone down. When he's Soft with Lily it's so natural, it's so tender and raw and I die a little. Also, his reaction when Lily says she's pregnant is 10/10. It makes me laugh and cry every time.
I'm sorry I don't have more but I genuinely don't know of any others (at least that I like). I love this pairing so much LOL it makes me so sad there's nothing out there.
#sam speaks#fic recs#snily#I know WHY its unpopular its more of like#there is so much potential#if snape had just like pulled his head of of his ass#for like a minute

most likely to tag game
game was started by @paeliae-occasionally
Rules: answer with which of your OCs would be the most likely to do the statement, then give new statements for the next person.
I was tagged by @fortunatetragedy here
Some i have answered before but I'm going to have fun elaborating.
My wip TPKODR cast and crew
Most likely to arrive ridiculously early.
Amon always arrives early, he is a seer and a trouble maker (I'm not sure why he is always early yet but he is) I theories it's to get the outcome that he wants but he refuses to answer... *Can I feed him to the fishys yet?* (Please ignore my sanity as I threaten my characters)
Most likely to be in a relationship for less than a week
Oscar he's not on the ship long but he's a playboy and an absolute idiot..with a good heart kinda (not a fan of him)
Most likely to secretly be really good at music, but just not tell anyone.
Adoh plays the drums it is how his grandmother taught him rhythm for his blacksmithing. He doesn't share that with just anyone.. Daimhín and Galen might know but they have not told me lol
Most likely to burn something while cooking
Daimhín he is not allowed to cook after heather saw his attempt at making bread...they were later used in the canon efficiently....(Not in story yet but on my list if possible mentions)
Most likely to stop a robbery if they see it taking place.
Oisìn he doesn't like robbery...but if he's going to commit it he commits 0_o (yes I did a scene and the brat decided to take over they were after 1 set if items and did they leave with just that no they didn't) *unimpressed author glaring at oc*
Most likely to not tell people they’re sick until they really need the help.
Oisìn, Daimhín and Jade would take the cake for this one. Jade and Oisìn don't like to show weakness so it'll have them on death's doors or passing out before they admit to being sick...let alone needing help. Daimhín just doesn't want the crew mother Henning him
Apologize first.
Depending on the situation but most likely Heather Heather is a very caring character.
Survive on a desert island.
Oisìn he would actually probably enjoy the vacation and hopes everyone forgets that island exist
Break up a fight.
Galen and Adoh usually break up any fights Galen can make them clean the latrines so they tend to stop when he says enough Adoh's method is they can't fight if they can't lift their arms for a month.....(That means he has assistant's for blacksmithing....) He will also knock them out so there's that...
Most likely to own a cat.
Technically the cat belongs to the ship but is often found in Adoh's workspace or harassing Daimhín... the crew claims the cat but Daimhín and Adoh have been claimed by the cat... Oisìn will be soon as well ;)
Most likely to swim across a large river/channel without getting fatigued.
Adoh has the muscles for it but I think the answer would be princess Anne 😂 she's of the merfolk
Most likely to not be a morning person and hates getting woken up too early.
Jade if he is woken up early it's usually not going to be a good day for him. Taz is not for being woke up early unless it's an emergency either...which a few pirates are about to find out... 0_o
Most likely to use magic tricks.
Amon or Morana although does it count if they have magic of sorts?
Most likely to start with just one drink and get blasted.
Amon as a full blooded fae has the worst resistance to getting shit faced.... As he will soon find out the hard way
Most likely to fall asleep wherever the place.
Braith although she will have a dagger to your throat before you know it if you wander in while she's asleep....she sleeps lightly
Most likely to lose their phone/wallet/other very important and period appropriate item. .
Amon the maps he's in charge if navigation and always setting down the maps 0_o
Most likely to hold a grudge over something minor.
Braith ....not necessarily a good thing for whoever the grudge is against
Most likely to try an unfamiliar food.
Jade as a prince he has tried some interesting things. He is usually willing to try anything, even when he hates it he will eat it if in a public setting.
Most likely to get stage fright.
I'm not sure that any of them would.
Most likely to crash a wedding.
0_o don't give them ideas but Death would definitely crash a wedding so would his wife Nyx Along with Rob 😇
Most likely to cheat on a test.
Rob 🤣 (not explaining this one)
Most likely to faint.
Oscar (he's the most likely but I'm not sure why.)
Most likely to enjoy art.
Adoh especially metal work of any kind.
Most likely to hate sports.
Oisìn it's connected to some bad memories and he doesn't understand why anyone would participate in sports
I'll add 3 but feel free to answer any
Most likely to get stomped on by a horse
Most likely to shoot a rifle
Most likely to hide their emotions
No pressure Tagging

Cartoon scale from "we must kill all magic" SVTFOE to "bring back magic and spread it" SPOP
It's very strange that Star Vs wanted to kill all the magic, it was an edgy outcome and the exact opposite of the episode where Star came back to life. The killing magic logic doesn't even work in itself, because apparently magic creates inequality, but honey, so many things create inequality. The mewmans aren't going to leave monsters alone forever. I get they spent a good season and a half villainizing the magical council for some reason but come on, seriously no solution other than killing all magical beings and magical portals???? Especially since it seems Mewnie itself got portal merged with Earth in a horrifying way.
Like, the show's politics by that stage seemed so angry about something. A lot of spite happening. There's plenty of real life analogies to compare it to that would induce spite, but I don't think any of them are fitting here. Authority....? Is it worth "killing the magic" to give a middle finger to monarchy? Can't you, instead, give magic to everyone? That would be cool!!! EVERYONE getting powers. Therefore people like Mina have no power over anyone else. That's more of what Spop went for, magic as a symbol of freedom of expression and freedom from control.
Something else is, a whole bunch of disgruntled mewmans went to Moon for help, then she superbuffed them with magic for. Some stupid reason. What a horrible character butchering. She endangered her own daughter and for what?
All of this overshadows some of the sweeter moments of Star, such as the aforementioned death and revival at the start of season 3. That entire arc was Star at its peak. And the mother-daughter relationship with all its complexities.
A petty issue I have with Star is she is very ADHD at the start and by the end of the show she's completely "grown out" of it (aka it was crushed out of her). As if it was mere childishness and she has to become a normal boring adult now.
I was very happy when in Owl House, they directly addressed this part of Luz... the crushing of her neurodivergent spirit... and her mother tells her it's all okay to be weird and wonderful and then in the final battle she uses her super self insert furry goth OC powers to annihilate Belos.
THAT shit would make Adora proud too. In season 5, theres a few eps where Adora basically does what the hell what she wants, and Entrapta is also doing what the hell she wants, and it's so liberating for me.
Amphibia exists in a weird spot where, they kill the magic but not in as horrible a way as Star Vs, more so the characters go back to their normal lives. The kicker here was that they fell out and stopped hanging for 10 years for,... some reason? In this day and age? I've known one of my friends since I was 4 years old, and we are still very closet today at the age of 27!!! The rest of our friends we've been with for over 10 years!!!

I have no problem with dead roach fics, but for the love of GOD be original with his death and have it actually mean something, most of the time fics are “that’s one less loose end” esque and just have Ghost survive bc reasons, or his death doesn’t actually contribute to the story long term, like it impacts the first 3 chapters and then dissapears
Activision come on, bring our big boy, GIVE US SOME FOOD
I have many problems with dead Roach fics, but my two biggest one are:
1. They are almost always tagged wrong.
If Roach is dead the entire fic and only mentioned or in like a brief flashback, he should not be tagged as a character. I'm sorry, but if he's dead, he isn't a character in your fic! He's not there! Tagging him as a character just means that you're clogging up his tag with fics that don't actually have him in them!
A lot of authors also tag their dead Roach fics with GhostRoach when, again, Roach is dead! There is not going to be any GhostRoach outside of like mentioning it. The ship should not be tagged! If I'm in the GhostRoach tag, I'm there to read GhostRoach, not stupid SoapGhost bullshit that kills my favorite character and uses his death as a shitty plot device. Don't tag GhostRoach if the fic isn't about them!!
2. A vast majority of dead Roach fics use him just to create drama in the SoapGhost relationship.
His death serves no meaning beyond being an obstacle to GhostSoap. They treat Roach like a villain who is somehow at fault for Soap dating a man who is very clearly still grieving and Ghost dating despite the fact that he clearly isn't ready. Its stupid, the relationship is never healthy, and Roach is always somehow a bad guy for being dead!
The people who write these clearly don't give a shit about Roach and only want to use him to create drama rather than just making an oc or some shit. And these are the same mfers who will claim that Roach is one of their favs, the fucking bullshit he is. Its frustrating and its only made more prevalent by the first point!! THEY KEEP PUTTING IT IN THE WRONG TAGS!!
Ignoring all the other shit that I think is stupid about the trope such as Ghost somehow being alive despite a loose ends situation happening (yeah, sure, cause Ghost who was shot in the neck and fucking killed instantly would have survived instead of Roach who was alive at least long enough to see the fire burning AND to attempt to stop Shepherd from getting the DSM. All after being blown up AND shot. Sure, Ghost would have survived but not Roach) or the absolute damage that it does to the characterization of characters like Soap and the relationship that Soap had with Roach in the OG games or the absolute unoriginality of it or the fact that tagging the fic GhostRoach seems like a passive aggressive way to shit on the ship or the fact that these people somehow write the most toxic shit known to man then call it romance or the way that the rope has been so overdone its fucking burnt (if one of you tags some joke about Ghost and Roach?? Its a block /j)
Ignoring all that other shit plus some, my biggest problem with the trope is the improper tagging. Because it wouldn't be a big deal to me if I never had to see it because people would tag their fics correctly. But people never do, so I have to see their shitty dead Roach fics, so I will continue to complain about their shitty dead Roach fics.
BTW this is no hate to anything you said, I also agree with what you said I just wanted to use your ask to rant because I like to rant and I like to shit on this trope and its been a while since I've gotten to do either.
Now, as usual:
Activision bring Roach back, GhostRoachSoap best ship, fuck the dead Roach trope I hope it fucking burns, and Roach I'm your biggest fan

For me is fun to see the difference from italian fandom and international fandom.
First of all: there are no purity culture in italian fandom. We ship and we write anything, and I mean anything. Of course we have our own archive that has rules, so there are some limits, but with the rise of AO3 we all are more free. And of course I can only tell about my little bubble and my little experience, but... We create the repayement ship, for god's sake, my beloved OTP Severus Snape/Lily Luna Potter. In the international fandom I would be eaten (and in fact I had experience with haters that called me pedo because of it right here on tumblr and that was so fun to me!). Also other ships I read and go strong in my bubble that can be classified ad "problematic": Salazar Slytherin/Helena Rawenclaw, Albus Dumbledore/Tom Riddle, Gellert Grindelwald/Ariana Dumbledore, Gellert Grindelwald/Tom Riddle, Tom Riddle/Helena Rawenclaw-The Gray Lady (maybe we invented even this ship, my friend start posting about them and it was so good so much other italian fanwriter writed about them), Sirius Black/Hermione Granger, Sirius Black/Ginevra Weasley, Severus Snape/Ginevra Weasley (I skip about Snamione etc you all knew them), Teddy Lupin/Rose Weasley, James Sirius Potter/Rose Weasley, Harry Potter/Rose Weasley and maybe I forgot something 🤔 That are all ships I wrote about (and praised for) and NO ONE bat an eye for the TW implied in them. I read so much beautiful stories about this ships, you have no idea.
Also in the specific of the Marauders fandom and the Slytherin, the italian fandom is so far away from international fandom that I lost myself some times trying to keep track of the characters (wtf is Lorenzo now??? I mean I barely understand who Mattheo Riddle is - and only because that one fanwriter I know who mostly wrote about the marauder era choose to write a story about him for fun; also I laugh because in italian the correct name spelling is Matteo). And maybe I was fixed on the fic that my friend write because now I can ship only Regulus/Barty (and Regulus/Barty/Alex where Alex is an OC 😂); also no Pandora in Slytherin, no black Mary-Dorcas (not sure who is black here), no Bruce Mulciber (??? Also not black Mulciber) and in general always a different setting. There is no "standard" in the italian marauders era, everyone write his own character and put them all in different houses and give them different ages (for example I read quite some stories where Dorcas Meadowes is older or much older then James&co). And NO JEGULUS AT ALL. Everyone in Italy seems to hate Jegulus (at least in my bubble). Unfortunately some quite like wolfstar but... It is one of the older ships, not something born now like Jegulus. And also no Mary/Lily, Dorcas/the other one girl I don't remember, etc etc... But the most important thing DEATH EATHER STAY DEATH EATER SO NOBODY WANTS TO HAVE TO INTERACT WITH THEM. I read beautiful stories from DE pov and they stay in the DE side of the war. The author try to make you emphatize with them (so no justify their action because they think that they are right and you can feel that - and this is great writing you all, not a propaganda for the bad side nor pronazi or other garbage shits I read from the anti and the international fandom about this) but no one is redeemed or fall in love with the light or other bullshit. Lord, even the death of Regulus has more sense in the fic I read instead of the bullshit "He change side because he love his House Elf so he is good!!!" that I read here.
Okay this became a wall of text so I stop here BUT if you are biligual/etc can you share your experience about the difference from your homecountry fandom and the international one? I'm curios 😂
#fandom discourse#harry potter#pro ship#pro shipping#international fandom#italian fandom#fandom difference#marauders fandom#this is not an anti post because this is about difference even if you can tell what ships I don't like#😂#sorry 😂#purity culture

Yeah honestly I think the reason rewrites are getting so much hate now is because of like 2-3 popular rewrite creators being really pushy about people making their own rewrites. It’s the same reason Shaw was getting so much hate in the beginning too because most people don’t like having things forced onto them. I can’t know for sure obviously but I’ve been following a couple of rewrite creators for a long time and before these 2-3 popular creators started being so pushy I never saw any of the other rewrite creators get any hate, I’ve seen people get death threats for using Bright or Shaw but never for a rewrite. I seriously miss the days when having a rewrite of Bright was just something others would do for fun or to make the character more personal to them but now it’s being forced as some moral obligation.
As for how I write Bright I don’t plan on giving him some sort of redemption arc but I have removed the possession anomaly and amulet so he’s just immortal and unable to be harmed kinda like Clef. However I can’t change the name or anything else because then he just starts to feel like an oc as opposed to an actual established character. Although I do enjoy most rewrites and even Shaw I just can’t get attached to them in the same way sadly. Also I can’t really speak on removing the Dr Bright tag from rewrites I know some of my friends get triggered by seeing rewrites in the tag but I can’t personally attest to that.
I have to disagree; most of the popular blogs are stating their boundaries, telling people why they don't want their stuff to be labeled as Dr. Bright contents, and providing information on why they don't want it. People don't actively seek out people and demand that they make rewrites; if you think what they're doing is pushy, block them.
Point blank: The reason people disliked Shaw was because DJK was presented in such a terrible light and had stolen credit from the real creator, who was a victim. I can understand Shaw because DJK claims he ‘killed’ Bright, which in itself was really shitty and performative as to boost his relevance by introducing ‘his’ cool new OC. He didn't ‘kill’ Bright; he didn't do jack shit. Hell, he didn't even acknowledge the antisemitism. At some point, racism, incest, or sexism were attached to the character. Simply changing his name does not fix anything; in fact, it sweeps it under the rug and still treats it as the butt of the joke. Not only that, but people found out that the real creator of Shaw actually had plans to redo and fix the character, not to completely erase Dr. Bright but to remove the negative parts. They decided to remodel the character as well because Dr.Bright was suppose to be self-insert by AB.
People wanted to do the same thing because they didn't agree or because they wanted to make a version of that piece. Either it's changing the character as a whole, changing the amulet and the lore along with the name, or keeping everything the same but rewriting the lore and lightly changing the name to have the same hold as Bright.
We're not outwardly telling people to change; we're just asking them to remember the victims and to change the lore of that character. Remove AB from the lore and create your ideal of 963. If it's the sexy Tumblr man, cool! Do it! Be happy and set your lore! But don't be disrespectful about it. We do it for fun, but there's people who have disrespected us and refuse to which started this whole situation. We asked many times for people to not tag our stuff as Jack Bright/Bright/ or anything of that manner, as we do have our own tags, which are 963-Rewrites/Bright-Rewrites/ or our Rewrites name. That's why we keep pleading with people to respect our wishes, but many people don't.
Many people haven't. Or many people have created a fuss with our wishes.
Most of the Doctors or personnel are well-known OCs from the authors because they have been around longer or when the whole fandom began to rise up. Everything in the foundation is someone's OC or creation. That's the whole point of creating for someone to see your creation, or OC./lh/NM

Imagine a bunch of your OCs going to the movies. What kind of movies would your different OCs end up watching? (Nothing specific, just genre/vibes.) Do they go to the same flick, watch different stuff? How do they behave once in their seats? Basically, I wanna know what going to the movies with your OCs would be like.
Hi hi hello!
I kept this ask for far too long and planned to write an Entire Scene out using the cast of Crater City, except it never came to fruition! But I can try to describe to the best of my ability what I had in mind, hehe!
...
For sure, Frasier would pay for everyone's tickets (except for Darcy because he's mean), and they would probably go watch the Lego Batman movie together because I said so.
Blair and Elijah would sit in the very back, top row. Blair would talk and giggle the whole time, making crude jokes or references while Elijah tries so hard not to laugh or encourage him, but he can't cant really help it. There's a 90% chance Blair winds up making coke shoot out of Elijah's nose after a batman x joker ship comment.
Darcy and Frasier would sit closer to the front/bottom row of the theater to get away from those idiots. Darcy is pissed Blair said something potentially spoiler-y before the movie started by Frasier is like, "Chill tf out, man, it's literally just a kid's movie." But Darcy wants his money's worth, goddammit.
Frasier is also busy trying to tell Blair and Elijah to stfu (via glares/hand motions) and to let them enjoy the movie and that they don't need security kicking them out of a flick again.
Meanwhile, Darcy has trouble with a teenager kicking his seat (totally not based on a true story). Frasier is like bro chill tf out, you're being louder than Blair and Elijah rn, stop fighting with a teenager. The teens just call Darcy old and that he looks like a poorly AI rendered image of Timothée Chalamet, which he takes offense to.
"Forty is not old, I'm not even close middle-aged yet!" Darcy is agitated.
"You have about 10 more years." The teen retorts.
"Oh, you wanna argue about the sudden spike in average human lifespan over the past fifty years? Because we can go there—"
"Darcy! Are you really arguing with a kid about your age in a movie theater? Stop being so immature." Frasier is so close to pulling the "idk who this man is but he's not mine" card but decides he's the only responsible adult here and can't back out.
Anyway, security has been called, and Darcy is definitely not having it. He wages a verbal battle with security, disturbing everyone else in the cinema, and embarrassing Elijah and Frasier in the process. He goes on about his hardships as mayor and having to deal with an impudent worm kicking his seat from behind (which security couldn't give 2 shits about). Darcy says something along the lines of "We paid for this movie and you'll have to fight my lawyers and I'm the mayor dammit," and so security backs off. Now everyone else in the Lego Batman movie theater is disgruntled at the disturbance. You can cut the tension with a super sharp knife.
Darcy turns to Blair and Elijah, who promptly stfu bc of his death glare. Frasier is concerned that Darcy raised more hell than it's worth all for a shitty movie, but tbh Darcy just likes to use his mayor card.
After the movie ends, they get up to leave, with all eyes on them until they make it to the parking lot. It also turns out that that thing Blair said off hand ended up being a spoiler, and Frasier almost beats the shit out of him, but this time Darcy is the one who has to hold him back. "It's ok, Frasier! We all saw it coming anyway!"
The teens who bullied Darcy come out of the theater to mock him again, but Fraiser flips them off, then security is called once again. And now all 4 of our characters are stuck at the police station with Darcy trying to bail them out, all the while Frasier glares at all three of them with disappointment. Blair is like, "This is definitely going on my 'pissed authority off' bingo board." Elijah rolls his eyes. At least they weren't in any mortal danger, he reasons.
...
🚗 Want to rot your brain with each sporadic Crater City post? Join the taglist! Maybe I'll finish this wip someday, who knows! (ask to be added/removed): @writeouswriter @lyra-brie @digitalsatyr23

2 for the end of year asks!! :]
(Ask post HERE)
Hiiiii <3
2. favourite fic of the year
I read too much fic. Hmm. Shit. We're turning this into Ryn's AO3 Wrapped: The Non-Embarrassing Version (Not An Exhaustive List At All). These were generally judged by how many times AO3 says I chose to re-visit them at 1AM and sob.
For screenreaders: Titles are hyperlinked, I'm @'ing the authors if I know they're on tumblr)
If they choose to see this: Hi. I think you're awesome. I'm just tagging you so people can find you #OnHere. I hope your Friday is rad. :)
Give him time by @obiwanobi personally came and murdered me when I went on another Star Wars kick back when Kenobi came out in June. Loosely canon-compliant, Obikin, and for big fans of characters who decide to re-work reality to bring the person they love back. Also, tragedy.
Accidental Baby Acquisition, which is basically What We Do In The Shadows + Baby. Carries the show tone off really well, is funny as hell, and features one of my favorite OCs ever in later installments in the form of Guillermo's sister Valentina.
The Uses of Adversity because I fell down The Sandman rabbithole like everyone else and "Crime Master!Hob", and this somehow became a comfort fic? He rescues Dream while imprisoned by Rodrick's son and it all spirals from there. Great characterization, great OCs, and there's a sequel happening!
Viable Alternatives, a House of the Dragon AU where Laenor exists to be more than a sad gay and artificial insemination exists! Big fan of how Rhaenyra doesn't get softened here and the Velaryons get more to do.
Time is a River was a real surprise to find, it's a time travel PJO AU that I thought was really fun--it makes Percy/Hermes work for me, which was a shock--and I kinda hope the author finds a sequel in them some day, (No pressure, of course; it was a gift to someone else, but also, it's rad and I want more).
I started reading Preserve or Raze by @foxyatlas before 2022, but the list doesn't feel right if I don't put it on here. It's a PJO AU where Percy winds up at Camp Jupiter, post-the original series, but I feel like it's cheating if I reveal the additional twist. Suffice to say, it is epic, has lots of shenanigans and worldbuilding, and I'd recommend it over Blood of Olympus anyday.
a girl who sees it all is super short, but it's a great Annabeth Chase bit, and I gotta include it.
Space Between is a Star Trek AOS one-shot in which Jim ruminates a lot in first person POV (I know! It's great! It works!) and looks pretty with his shirt off while Spock saves the day--as canon tends to go. Eventual love confessions ensue.
Went on a biiiig X-Men movies kick this year, which is the excuse for The Tower and the Hurricane being on the list. Set in a post-X-Men: First Class world where Magneto proves right and human-mutant war has ensued, and Xavier takes the school to his sanctuary. Lots of pining and tension set against a potential apocalypse, it's good times.
shoulder the sky (and the fic it inspired) is a fucking amazing Star Wars series featuring a lot of Obi-Wan whump, lot of pain, and a lot of the clones doing their best as the Jedi try to keep their shit together. 12/10, would watch everyone suffer again.
and we're gonna sing it again and again is the best Our Flag Means Death fic I have read, go argue with a wall.
kidnapping bruce wayne 'verse by @frownyalfred makes me laugh every time I read it, and is basically what it says on the tin: Bruce gets kidnapped a lot, he inevitably grows on the henchmen who are always contracted to kidnap him. There's a lot of unreliable POV in regards to A, the fact that Bruce is Batman, and B, Bruce is getting railed by Superman on a semi-regular basis, and it is prime comedy.
I regret nothing putting hand in unrebloggable hand (we go down together) on this list. Enjoy.
i won't be shamed by you is basically Buffy the Vampire Slayer is except Spike is really into reality TV and gradually infects the Scoobies with it. Background canon relationships, but the point is that Spike is invested in The Bachelor.
let not time deceive you (you cannot conquer time) is a modern The Old Guard AU where everyone is still immortal but Nicky is a millennial college student, with a lot of pining, lot of grad school and Catholic Church criticism, and a lot of angst. Also, Quynh shows up towards the end and she's a fucking delight.
I am not just recommending as wise as heaven and crueller than hell just because one of the stories was gifted to me by you. It's also fucking amazing PJO and possesses superior Nico and Luke characterization.
#i got an ask!#ryn speaks#fic recs#star wars#buffy the vampire slayer#wwdits#batman#the old guard#pjo#heroes of olympus

Catching A Ghost | Simon 'GHOST' Riley
Ghost x Reader
CHAPTER SIXTEEN
Simon 'GHOST' Riley x AFAB!Reader!OC 18+ MINORS DNI! t.w // angst, mental health, language, violence, death, sexual themes/SMUT, military inaccuracies, language inaccuracies (google translate).
Catching A Ghost: Masterlist
Throwing two knifes, you expertly took out the guards on the gate, ripping them from their skulls and slipping them back into your holsters.
"Oh hell yeah," you said, picking up one of their weapons, "I'm keepin' this."
You ran your fingers along the side of the magnificent weapon, subconsciously groaning as your fingers fit round it perfectly.
"If you could fuck the gun later, Reaper, that'd be great."
"I don't fuck, Graves, I make love." You snickered. "Emotional connection is essential."
"I could make love to ya, sweetheart."
You rolled your eyes, swallowing down the bile that rose in your throat at the thought. Your mind flicked to Ghost, and you could picture him white-knuckling his gun over the comment.
"What're ya gonna do? Rub my inner thigh for two minutes and then ask if I came?"
The silence that followed was loud.
In the helo, Graves' ears were tinted pink, an embarrassed flush coursing through his body. The Shadows around him were howling in laughter at their commander's expense.
Soon enough, the choked snickers of Ghost, Alejandro, and Soap forced their way through the comms, sputtering as they tried to contain themselves.
"Ghost, Reaper, we're in." Alejandro said.
"What you got?"
"El Sin Nombre is in the penthouse, third floor." Soap said, and you smiled, glad to hear his voice.
"Thank fuck you're alive!"
"Said I would be, didn't I? Also don't fuckin' say shit like that when I'm undercover I almost blewit trying not to laugh!"
"Can't help it, Soap, I'm a comedic genius."
You laughed, before moving around the back of the building. You took out two more men, opting to use the silence of your knives, before reaching a back entrance, where you saw three bodies, one stripped of clothes.
"Well I found where you came through, Ale. Jesus Christ."
"Aye, be careful, hermana. Don't be seen."
"Say less."
Moving into the courtyard, you rolled and sprinted through the shadows, finding a good spot to stay hidden until they needed you.
"I'm in position."
"Copy that."
You stayed quiet, only speaking to reel off the names of the so-called VIPs you recognised. Anyone with any authority in Las Almas was there, showing just how corrupt and dangerous the place was.
"Soap's close, he's got the card. Reaper, get to the roof." Ghost said.
"Are you dumb? There's guards crawling all over that staircase." you whispered urgently.
"Nothing I ain't seen you do before, boo. I'll cover ya."
Boo.
And he said you were the distraction.
By the time you'd worked your way up to the roof, leaving bodies in your wake, alarms were blaring, and the remaining cartel members were rushing everywhere, determined to find you.
"Soap! Ale! I'm here. Engaging on your count." you said, stooping behind the fountain and propping the gun you'd stolen onto the stone.
"Snake Cam is set. Time to get PID on El Sin Nombre." you heard Alejandro say.
Watching from your position, you saw a woman sitting in a chair, three men walking around her. She had just finished pacing the room on the phone, hands flailing aggressively as she talked.
"Hey guys...did we ever consider the possibility that El Sin Nombre was not a dude?" you said, readying yourself.
"No fucking way...the sicaria, Valeria, she's El Sin Nombre."
"Told you."
"Are you sure hermano?" Alejandro said, his tone somewhat...off.
You shifted, ready to fire when needed.
"Graves, Sin Nombre is posing as the female sicaria. We're moving in. You set?"
"Check."
"Ghost?"
"Ready."
"Say the word and I'll blast through that window." you said, finger resting on the trigger.
With a slow count, Soap and Alejandro burst through the door, and you littered the windows with bullets. Glass shot everywhere, giving both you and Ghost clear shots to the cartel members.
You smiled as you felt the bullets from his sniper fly past you, hitting guards perfectly left and right.
"You still got it, huh, Ghost?" you said.
"Best in the biz, Reaper."
"She's running!" you yelled, as the woman sprinted past you.
"Don't let her escape!" Alejandro yelled, but you were already moving.
Tossing the gun aside, you jumped to your feet, running so fast you were sure you were leaving smoke behind you.
She was about to get away, positioning herself to drop down from the roof, until you came out of nowhere, diving from the side to swipe her down. She clawed at you, trying to escape your hold as you wrestled with her on the floor, until Graves was overhead with the helo.
The woman surrendered then, and you rolled off her, panting.
"Nice take down, Reaper." Soap said, helping you off the floor before cuffing the woman.
"All in a day's work." you smiled, turning to see Alejandro.
Shadow soldiers forced her into the helo behind Graves, and you were about to follow, until you saw the look that Alejandro was giving her. You turned, raising an eyebrow to Soap, who shared your expression.
"Hermano? Que pasa?" Soap said.
"Valeria...I know her."
It was a silent ride back to the compound, and as soon as you were there, Valeria was being shoved into a chair by Graves and Soap, all of you piling into one of the old shipping containers. Graves was circling her, while you, Rudy, and Ghost stayed back. Alejandro had the same look on his face as before.
"Alright, how do you to know each other?" Graves said, pointing a finger at Alejandro.
"Know is a strong word." he answered, letting out a bitter laugh.
"Strong words are important. Our word is our worth, right?" Valeria said.
"Go to hell, you son of a bitch!" Alejandro started yelling, "I'm gonna kill you!"
He lunged forward, and you were the only one quick enough to intervene, jumping from next to Ghost, and stopping in front of Alejandro, putting your hands on his chest.
"Tranquilo, Ale. No dejes que ella te atrape. (Calm down. Don't let her get to you.)" You whispered, urging him backwards.
He nodded, before shrugging you off, backing up, "Vamos. Tell them." he said to her.
"I don't take orders anymore." she spat, and you scowled at her. "Even the dogs in Las Almas know not to bark at me."
"She's ex-military. We served together."
Valeria crossed her legs, leaning back on the chair, "different squads, same unit. You were the wild ones, huh...Los Vaqueros."
Alejandro smiled, bitterness and hatred all over his face. You'd moved back to your position next to Ghost now, who had you standing in front of him so he could place an unseen hand on your back.
Your fingers twirled around your dog-tagsthat were hanging loosely around your neck.
"My squad was clean cut senores y senoras..."
"Until the raid on the son of La Arana." Alejandro bit back. "Her team was told to cordon off the city to keep out La Arana's enforcers and prevent bloodshed."
So that's what this was.
A betrayal.
"That's exactly what we did." Valeria spoke sweetly.
"Well, you kept out his enforcers because you were his enforcers, no?"
"He was escorted to the mountains without incident...also, to prevent bloodshed."
Graves moved around her then, placing a firm hand on her shoulder, "so you killed him and you took over."
"Las Almas needs me."
"Las Almas needs soldiers, not sicarios. And you..." Alejandro leaned down to meet her eyeline, "You disgrace the army."
"Why're you doing this?" you spoke from the Shadows.
"Huh, the girl that took me down...impressive skills, you certainly showed up these sorry excuses for soldiers. You know, we could use you in our-"
"That's enough." Ghost said, stepping in front of you, "you're a narco, harbouring a terrorist."
Valeria looked him up and down, before looking at you and smirking, "terrorism is good for business. Insurance."
"What does that mean?"
It seemed Alejandro's question had hit a nerve with her then, as she began yelling at him ferociously in Spanish, telling him he had his head in his ass. You translated quietly to Ghost and Soap, the two of them standing with you.
"As long as there is a war on terror, there will be no war on drugs."
Ominous looks were shared around the container.
Drugs.
That was the big plan, the big motive. That was why Hassan needed missiles.
"To find your so-called terrorist, and your missiles, you need me."
She turned to Alejandro, smirking.
"To prevent bloodshed."
"No. No, I'm not doing this..." he said, picking up his weapon.
"It doesn't change anything." Soap said.
"It changes everything! Fuck! Don't make a deal with her...it won't end well." he yelled, before exiting the container, pushing the door open so hard it swung back and forth.
You went to follow, only for Ghost to latch onto your vest, stopping you in your tracks. You looked back at him with pleading eyes, but he shook his head slowly, before releasing you. Moving back to his side, you kept your eyes forward, watching Graves move to interrogate further.
"Looks like it's your turn to tell the truth." Soap said, blocking her view of the door.
"I want the missiles, I want the target, and I want Hassan." Graves whispered in her ear. "You've got 10 seconds or I'm gonna show you the difference between the military and me."
"I don't know the targets. I'm a courier, I move things."
"Liar." you spat.
"I can tell you where to find the missiles. When you return, I'll tell you where Hassan is. In exchange, you will let me go. And get the fuck out of Las Almas."
Graves and Soap turned to look at you, Rudy, and Ghost. You shook your head, eyes pleading with Graves;
Don't make the fucking deal.
He looked back at you, and a smirk ghosted across his face, "Deal. Until then...you're stayin' right here."
It was your turn to storm out then, following in Alejandro's footsteps. You heard Soap call after you, but you ignored it, leaving the rest of them to get the information you needed.
Searching through the compound, you finally found Alejandro, beating the shit out of one of the punchbags near the combat ring. His vest and gun had been carelessly discarded on the table, beads of sweat dripping down his forehead.
"Ale...Ale, stop, please." you spoke softly, taking his hands in yours.
"Did they make a deal with her?" he asked, sadness in his eyes.
"Yeah, Graves..."
"Fucking Graves!" he yelled, slamming his water bottle down.
"What the hell happened with you and Valeria?"
"I told you, she was dirty. Disgraced the army."
"She did more than that, Alejandro. Talk to me." you said, pulling him to sit down next to you.
The two of you sat on the edge of the ring, thighs touching as you held his hands in your lap affectionately.
"We weren't just in the same unit, I loved her."
Your heart broke for him.
Leaning to your side, you wrapped your arms around him, placed your head on his shoulder.
"I loved her and she betrayed me. Betrayed us all."
"Ale...I'm so sorry."
"And to top it off, I feel like it was my fault. I knew she was hiding something from me. But I was too blind to see it, too blinded by my love for her to do anything. It's my fault those men died that day."
"No- Alejandro, you stop that right now. You did what was right in your heart, you did nothing wrong. The actions of others are not your responsibility to bear."
He smiled, letting a puff of air flow through his nose, "I told you that."
"Yeah, you did. And it's about time you pay attention to your own words. You brought a lot of comfort to me in that, you started my healing. I need you to feel it too."
He looked at you, moving to wrap his arms around you and pulled you into him, placing a soft kiss to your forehead.
"We're lucky to have you here, mi amor. You've brought us closer together."
"You're my family, Ale. I'd die for you, and I'll continue to kill for you."
"We love you, carino."
You squeezed him harder, burying your face into his neck, helping him to physically relax. When you pulled away, he had a kind smile on his face, and placed a kiss to your forehead once more.
"I wanted to ask you something, anyway." he said, standing up.
"What's up?"
"Are you and Ghost like...together?" he asked in a hushed voice.
You froze in your spot.
Well, were you?
You didn't really have an answer for that.
Heat rushed to your cheeks, and your eyes were wide, mouth agape. Words failed you, and by judging your reaction, Alejandro had every bit of information he needed.
"I knew it."
"U-uh, fuck, Ale- please don't say anything- I don't really know what's going on yet-" you panicked.
"Breathe, (Y/N), I'm not going to say anything, amor. It's...nice."
"Nice? The fuck is nice?"
"It's nice he's found someone. I started to really worry for him, but as soon as you walked through that door almost a month ago, he's been much happier."
"You think?" you said, a smile gracing your lips.
"Aye, and so have you."
"He's softer than you think. He can be really sweet when he's not...you know, Ghost."
"I could see that." he chuckled. "Just be careful, si? Graves has been very, uh, obsessed with you lately."
"Don't worry, I know how to handle Phillip Graves. I was engaged to him once, remember?"
"I got your back, hermana. Wherever and whenever you need me."
"Like the Shakira song?" you joked, making him laugh.
The two of you shared a hug once more, before the rest of the team came bursting into the room and gathering you all around the table.
Alejandro moved to stand next to Rudy, opposite you, and threw you a knowing smile when Ghost took his place in the empty space on your right, standing closer than needed. You smiled back, biting your lip, but that was quickly exchanged to a look of determination once Graves announced the locations of the missiles, marking them on the map.
Time to stop a terrorist.

So am wondering, does Midoriya learning hand to hand combat and martial arts after USJ makes sense with his character? He is supposed to be the Deku who does his best. He declared to All might that he needs to become stronger. not just make it to UA and trial behind. Even during USJ Midoriya learnt an important lesson from Aizawa which is not be a One trick pony. All of this and yet he doesn't learn how to fight and advance his base combat skills, learn martial arts etc. Like he should've realised that he can't depend on his non mastered quirk all the time and started to learn MMA or any other martial arts. Yet he doesn't do it. Even during Grand Torino's internship, he doesn't reflect on his other weakness and try to overcome them. Once he controls OFA, he becomes bland and unbearable to watch. it makes no sense narrative wise for him to not learn and improve in combat with and without his quirk.
He is also way smarter, tactical and talented compared to Bakugou and i would even say at an equal to Momo and we can see this early on in Season 1. Izuku is capable of doing it. But yet he doesn't and instead he behaves like a dumb kid before the sports festival.
Makes me wonder if Hori, made him dumb so that other characters can shine at his expense. Like Bakugou, Uraraka, Momo, etc. Like why Uraraka who was mediocre in fighting and was way behind Izuku is allowed to learn Martial arts after Sports festival while Izuku is not given the same chance after the sports fest. He gets left behind. So is he supposed to be shit in fighting compared to characters who were way behind him once when he is supposed to be the strongest in S3.
He even loses to Bakugou at 8% which is supposed to more faster and stronger than explosion. He loses because he was predictable which is BS considering, this is the same kid who beat, Stain, Muscular and has real-life experience compared to Bakugou while the latter is just a hype and nothing more and also he wasn't in the right mind to think since he was busy bitching about All might's retirement. I honestly think that Hori Hyped Bakugou to the moon for his combat skill when he himself is mediocre. There is no evidence of him training his combat skills the right way. I mean this is the guy who only goes after the weak and acts as if winning against them is a big thing. Just a big fish in a little pond lol.
Hello 😀 thank you for your ask. I love talking about the flaws on MHA. So...before I answer, please, keep in mind how Hori is clearly playing against his MC. I don't know if you go to the writeblogger section of Tumbler but...in there some authors comment how "I need to hurt my ocs for character development"
We laugh (or not)
But here is the big difference betwen them and Hori.
"I killed MC's BFF just so he could see how the situation is serious and he needs to step up his game"
Hori? "Izu needs to be humble. So let make him be saddle with his abuser and still think he is useless and have no real support but give to his abuser"
Many people think Izu should have remained quirkless. I strongly disagre. If he had been quirkless...then he couldn't be a hero. We see how heroes NEED a quirk, we never ever seen a hero not rely on his quirk.
I also dont agree with the whole "quirkless = death" I was thinking about this last night. I think quirked peope just ignore quirkless and can co-exist with them.
Yes many fics make IZU be the butt of all "quirkless discrimination" but in canon ONLY BK show issues with Izu(and Izu alone, while he bullied others in Aldera he never mentioned "quikrless? Die" if Izu had a quirk since day 1...he would have bullied him too)
As for training...ask yourself this
What was Izu planning to do in order to be a hero? Say AM has said "yes everyone can be a hero" ok...then what?
This is a red flag.
Ok Izu is training during 10 months (time passage in mha is terrible) ok...he gains muscles, AM does nothing after that.
Aizawa is the worst teacher (he would be way worse if he was a true perv) his exam helped no one and was so pointless.
(It serves to prove how BK is the special boy for Hori)
Note how no one in UA helps the students - Aizawa went to help someone who is not his student, instead of the boy who has a quirk who breaks his bones- and no one cares Izu is breaking his bones.
"If he breaks his bones again. I wont heal hom" Recover Girl.
Izu, of he had a good writer, could have been the first hero to actually use quirkless style of fight.
He was amazing in that race as he didnt need his quirk.
He won.
But Hori is against his mc...for some wierd reason. Izu cant get credit nor win.
Plus Izu not only should have wipe BK's face on the floor but so should he have done the same to class A1 in "let's capture Midoriya bc we know best"
But again
Hori is against his MC.
He even went as far as to draw a "mascot" based on BK.
This man...ruined his entire manga in favour of a useless character such as BK.
Like Izu can't be mad for himself. He still think he is worthless.
His hero name is Dekiru but ...Hori still goes ans make him accept "useless" like Hori...you suck as writer.
#hori is a bad writer#the way the fandom treats Izuku is messed up#the way Hori treats Izu is messed up

H, I, Z for the fanfic ask game!
putting this under a cut just because I never shut up SORRY. also THANK U FOR THE ASK STORM 💘💖💗
H - How would you describe your style?
DANG out of all the questions I was kind of hoping I WOULDN'T get this one because I'm TERRIBLE at describing my writing style hahah! Let's do this bullet point form because that's slightly neater than me just rambling with no direction. Note that I'm probably overthinking and hard on myself and these things aren't necessarily bad.
- I remember back when I was a teenager I think a reader said my writing was "sunshiny" and that's stuck with me I think. I tend to gravitate towards writing about good things happening to characters rather than bad ones, and even if they DO go through bad shit I just gotta give at least a glimmer of hope.
- I've always sort of felt like my writing is very... simple? I feel like I don't use very... idk fancy adjectives or verbs.
- Lots of italics especially with dialogue because characters will often say things with a particular cadence in my head and I like to try and translate that to text. Am I successful at it??? I don't know
- Also lots of run on sentences/repetition. I feel like Emotional Scenes get me to go into a kind of weird... rhythmic way of describing what the characters are feeling.
To summarize: I've been tippy tapping away on a keyboard for... like. Nearly two decades about fictional characters and people tend to go "This is good!" and I just smile and nod and go "Ah yes. All according to plan" while screaming on the inside. I have no idea what I'm doing or what my style is like
I - Do you have a guilty pleasure in fic (reading or writing)?
Hmmmm. Reading-wise, no, not really, I don't think. I mean, what IS a guilty pleasure, REALLY. It depends on the person right? And honestly if it's written well enough and it doesn't outright squick me then I'm likely willing to give it at least a try.
Writing-wise... God. I am the biggest hypocrite because I constantly encourage other people to write that daydream universe! Write that OC/Canon pairing, eSPECIALLY if the canon character is a so-called Tumblr Sexyman!! but I'm always so so nervous about doing it myself. I'm getting better about it, I know I am, but. IT'S STILL HARD.
Z - Major character death—do you ever write/read it? Is there a character whose death you can’t tolerate?
Write it - no, not really! I won't say never because if it works for the story I'll do it, but I'm not gonna just do it willy nilly. I think it's much less likely to happen in my fanfic writing because I often specifically seek out fic that fixes character deaths haha! (Note: I will however, do near-deaths or mostly-deaths a la The Princess Bride. Like, someone dying, but only temporarily. Of course, for me, the setting HAS to have fantasy for that to happen but you get it.)
Read it - depends on the author. I'm probably not gonna click on a stranger's fic that's marked with character death, but if it's an author I know or an author recommended to me by someone I know, I'll do it. I GOTTA TRUST THAT YOU'RE GONNA DO IT RIGHT OKAY.
And there's no particular character who springs to mind immediately, but like, I LOVE kid heroes and I don't think I can do it if you're gonna kill them off, it'd just break my heart.

Idfk shit about me ig (this is my oc not me me)
Full Name: Caspian Todd Nickname: Cas Age: 19 Gender Identity: Gender Fluid (uses he/they pronouns) Occupation: Aspiring Artist and Vigilante
Background:
I'm the younger sibling of Jason Todd, originally known as the second Robin. Growing up in the shadow of my brother's legacy, I struggled with feelings of inadequacy but found solace and expression in drawing. I'm known for my edgy, captivating artwork that often reflects the chaos and darkness of Gotham City. Although Jason's return from death as the Red Hood has complicated our relationship, I remain fiercely protective of him and harbor intense feelings about Jason's past���especially concerning the Joker's actions.
Personality:
I'm a fiery individual, blending a sense of humor with a deep-seated fury toward those who hurt my loved ones. I'm very rebellious, often finding myself in trouble for my defiance against authority—even Batman. My passion for justice drives me in my vigilante pursuits, but my inner turmoil occasionally leads them down a path of vengeance. I often grapple with my identity, navigating between different expressions of self, which adds to the complexity. Despite the anger that simmers beneath their surface, I possesses a soft, sensitive side that reveals itself through my art.
Skills and Abilities:
Combat Proficiency: A skilled fighter, I am trained in hand-to-hand combat, utilizing a blend of acrobatics and street-fighting techniques.
Artistic Talent: My talent in drawing not only serves as an escape but also helps in mission planning, creating blueprints, and disguises.
Stealth and Agility: I'm agile and stealthy, able to navigate the shadows of Gotham with the same grace as they wield a paintbrush.
Technology Savvy: Adapted to using gadgets from Jason's arsenal, I have a knack for tech and hacking—enhancing their pursuit of vigilante justice.
Motivations:
I'm driven by an intense desire for revenge against the Joker, feeling that I need to avenge my brother's suffering. Despite Jason's reincarnation, I believe the cycle of violence must end with accountability. I aims to find my own place in the shadowy world of Gotham, eager to carve out a legacy that honors Jason's memory while stepping out from that shadow.
Connections:
Jason Todd (Red Hood): My complicated relationship with their brother is both a source of strength and conflict. I admire his resilience but struggle with his inclination toward the darker aspects of vigilantism.
Batman: I often clash with Batman, who sees them as reckless; yet, there is an underlying respect for his skills. Batman's decision to intervene during my encounter with the Joker only deepens my resentment.
The Joker: An arch-nemesis, their obsession with making the Joker pay is a driving force in my life; this vendetta often clouds my judgment.
Quirks:
Art with a Message: Frequently creates pieces that comment on society, justice, and the consequences of violence, often leaving me in public spaces as a form of protest.
Catchphrases: Known to say "I don't give one fuck, two fucks, or three fucks!" when declaring my defiance against authority or injustice.

Echoes From The Past
Echoes From The Past - Preface
"All Aboard"
Kid x OC
Warnings: Swearing - Word Count: 1169
Author's Note: Hello, everybody! My name is Aura, and this is my first time writing here on Tumblr. I've been writing fanfiction on and off for about 15 years now, but I rarely have the courage to actually post it.
This fic is a Kid x OC fanfiction. It takes place post-timeskip and a after the events of Sabaody Archipelago. I really can't say much else about the fic without giving everything away, so you'll just have to read it for yourself!
This fic is also kind of an informal introduction to my OC, Bellatrix. I made her wayyy back when I was a sophomore in high school so she's been around for a while.
There's no warnings in these first few chapters, aside from swearing and canon-typical violence, but we're dealing with Kid and his crew, so that should just be a given...
Anyway! Enjoy the first chapter of this fic and let me know what you think!
Synopsis: The Kid Pirates are preparing to dock on an island and "greet" the locals. Little do they know; they'll get more than they bargained for.
The Kid Pirates--A notorious crew of pirates known for their violence and infamy. On this ship, there’s no time for bitching and bellyaching. This crew of pirates, led by the ever violent and bloodthirsty Eustass “Captain” Kid, didn’t take just anyone on board with them. To hang with these guys, you had to be tough. In fact, tougher than tough. Thankfully, that’s no problem for me.
I’m Bellatrix Quinn, but I go by Bella. I'm one of the few people bold enough to board the Victoria Punk and survive. I make the majority of the weaponry Kid and the crew use. I make guns, knives, swords, and gauntlets to name a few. The only disadvantage of my job is that I'm always up to my ears in repairs. If not one thing, then another.
But that's to be expected. This crew is largely made up of men, but there are a few women on it. Hip, Hop, House, Dive, Quincy, Emma and I are the only girls on this sausage fest of a ship. I love them all to death, but if Quincy doesn't give my bra back-- Okay, I'm off topic.
Anyway, I don't want anyone to think I'm ungrateful. I'm damn grateful to the crew, especially Kid, for taking me in. He didn't have to save my ass like that. I'll be the first to admit that I was in pretty bad shape when they found me. If they hadn’t taken me in, then…
Knock! Knock! Knock!
“Ayo! Bella!” The loud gruff voice of my captain broke me from my thoughts. “You in there?”
“Yeah.” I hollered back, putting my wrench down on the table.
The door opened and a fiery red-haired man with a large imposing stature and a large metal arm walked up to the work bench.
“Arm giving you fits again?” He said, looking down at my smaller metal arm.
“Nah, a screw or bolt or something is loose.” I said squinting as I aimed the wrench at my arm. “I just can’t find which one it is.”
“Lemme see it.” He crouched beside me and took my wrench. “While I’m fixing you up again, I’ll let ya know what’s going down.” He took my arm and sat it on his lap. “We’re stopping at an island a little North of here. Killer says there’s a family there rich beyond your wildest belief.” He examined my arm and began to tighten a screw. “We’ll stop by, rob ‘em blind, and be outta there by morning.” He let go of my arm. “How does that feel?”
I move my fingers and nod. “Feels good as new. How much supply do you reckon we’ll need?”
Kid shrugged and gestured with his hand. “At least one sword and one gun for everyone here. Wouldn’t hurt to have backups, but your shit don’t break easily.”
I smirk. “They’d hold up a lot better if ya’ll weren’t hell on them.”
Kid raises an eyebrow at me. “Watch it, Bell. Mouth off again and I’ll throw you back in the sea.”
“Oooo, I love a good swim.” I smirk wickedly at him and giggle. “How far are we from the island?”
Kid scoffs at me. “We’ll be there in about an hour.”
“Sounds like a plan.” I go over to the weapons closet. “See ya on the deck!”
After getting a box of firearms and swords, I make my way up to the deck of the Victoria Punk. I set the boxes down, crawl up onto one, and sit down. I scan the crew, looking for House, Emma, or one of the girls. I mostly see the guys sitting around playing cards or chatting away. Where the hell are they, dammit? I look across the deck and see Kid standing at the ship's bow. I imagine he's sporting that devilish grin of his.
I feel someone tap on my shoulder. I turn over and smile. “Oh, hey Killer.”
"Hey Bella, how's your eye?" He gestures to his left eye. I gently touch my right eye. I went a little crazy during a fight with another crew. To put it simply, I am nearly blind in one eye and had to cut my hair off to save my skin.
“It’s fine. It’s healing pretty well, actually.”
"Good to hear. Take care of yourself today." Killer said and began to walk away. He's a pretty nice guy. He makes sure we all keep our shit straight. He's even pretty good at keeping the captain reigned in. He's kept Kid from dragging us into the belly of the beast more times than one. I'm glad he's here, because God knows he won't listen to any of us!
“Bella! Shit, there you are!” A girl with silver-blue hair came trotting up to me.
I turned around, hopped down from the boxes, and grinned at her. “There I am? House, I’ve been looking for you for the past 30 minutes!”
“Oh, lay off, Bella Quinn,” House rolled her eyes. “I had to get the sick bay ready and it’s not my fault you practically live in that stupid workshop!”
“I don’t live in the workroom!” Well...she’s kinda right. I'm always behind on repairs, trying to finish weapon blueprints, or designing new ones. I barely leave the workshop to eat, let alone sleep! Luckily, Kid has a trundle bed in the shop, so I'm not sleeping on the floor.
House crossed her arms at me. “Oh yeah? I bet 50 berri you won’t be in your own bed tonight.”
I chuckle deeply. “That’s all I have to do? Sleep in my own bed? That’s easy!”
“Yeah, in your own bed and not someone else’s…” House smirked at me wickedly, glancing over towards the bow of the ship.
I blush darkly. "That was one time, and nothing happened!" I might as well tell you my dirty little secret. I was up late, playing poker with Killer, Kid, and some of the other crew. I was on a losing streak and drank entirely too much. The next morning, I woke up in Kid's bed, with him snoring in my ear and nearly shoving me against the wall. Quincy, I swear to God, your ass is grass!
“Alright, listen up!”
Speak of the Devil.
House and I turn around to see Kid standing in the middle of a small crowd that’s begun to form around him. It’s go time.
“This job should be simple for you bunch of idiots. If you need a new weapon, go get one from Bella. She’s got a whole box of ‘em over there! Now, I don’t want any damn excuses! Let’s go in there and kick their asses!”
The crew cheers, and I smirk slightly. Sailing on the open sea is nice, but I've been itching for a good fight. It's been a long time since I've fought someone worth a shit. It'll feel great to get out there and start raising hell again!
The ship docks at the harbor, and we all start filing off. I can feel adrenaline rushing through my veins.
Let’s kick some ass!
Thank you for reading! Please let know what you think and leave any comments or questions you may have!
