#honestly tho on tumblr i was exposed to the popularity of that (wrong) opinion just from art and fic and text posts crossing my dash

[goldenhypen]

hi em! i was gonna make this anonymous but ta heck w tht LOL okay so this is gonna b a long one js bc i wanna b as clear as possible for u but i jus wanna kno ur opinion on this n im sorry if this sounds redundant (given what ur whole acc is abt) but i saw this tiktok that was basically talking abt how ppl who read rp (real person) fanfics r weird , disgusting , and freaks (that one hurt ngl😭) and ig bc i never interacted w ppl who read them i had no idea this was such a controversial thing yk? so it kinda hurt and i got hella defensive bc these fics have helped me thru some hard times n r my safe space (esp ur acc i love it sm ur fics r quick n easy reads but so so good! and i love tht u write wholesome sfw fics i don’t like / can’t read nsfw rp fics) and r good when i need a quick romance fix bc i have none irl (tmi fr sorry!) but honestly it made me feel horrible abt myself bc im like damn am i sick freak for reading this even tho i read the sfw n wholesome ones?? n they were sayin the y/n , self inserts were even worse! 😭 n idk if this makes me ignorant but for the life of me i couldn’t figure out what made it weird! nsfw ones r different but regular romance or fantasy? esp since i never see this take when ppl mention they used to read one direction fanfics or mindless behavior & august alsina ones (these were popular among the black community for context!) like everyone laughs n reminisces i feel like ppl r a lot more critical n harsh on kpop stans tbh but i even thought abt deleting my tumblr bc i felt wrong for doing so it made me question myself for awhile just being honest anyways i’ll get off my soapbox im so sorry this is so long i jus wanted to give as much context and detail as possible! if this is too much please disregard but idk i just wanted an opinion on this take from a fix writer and i assume u read some too correct me if i’m wrong! thanks so incredibly much in advance and i hope we can b friends one day! 🧸🎀✨💌💕🫶🏽

this is so real of you omg ok first of all, thank you for going out of your comfort zone to do this! things like this make me so happy cuz you coming out of your way to do this (comfort wise and time wise since it must’ve taken you a while to write sm, esp considering the technical difficulties 😭) makes it all the more meaningful. and i rlly appreciate you coming to me of all ppl too! so thank you!

secondly, i agree with you on all the things you had to say !! i was once in your shoes, and if i’m being completely honest, a part of me is still navigating this as well. like some things i still question for example is if there is rlly nothing wrong with this, why do i feel the need to hide that i read/write? but for the most part, rn i am definitely set on there being absolutely nothing wrong with this! i can definitely see where these other ppl are coming from if they had never thought much of fanfiction or reader inserts etc. bc it’s probably similar to how i felt before being more exposed to fanfiction. but imo these are fantasies i just imagine in my head anyway and are almost like dreams to me yk? and so imo, they’re harmless. in fact, writing and reading ffs help grow my creativity, which is smth i value. cuz not only am i doing this for entertainment, i’m also doing it for the art (this is in terms of writing more so than reading but can still apply to both). however, similar to you, i do believe that imagines can be taken too far, as that is what aligns with my beliefs, such as nsfw fics (which is not anything personal at all to nsfw writers!). that imo can be harmful for the mind and spirit etc. (sorry if this is getting too deep and personal 😭)

ugh this is honestly so nice to talk about and have someone relate to on this cuz literally the things you are saying describe me !!! and dw, i have and never had any love life,, it’s non existent, believe it or not! so dw, you’re not alone 😭 like we can be delulu tgt 😭😭 and ahahaha yesss like i can’t tell you the amount of times i considered deleting this app or stopping writing/reading. it was challenging to process. but after doing so, i have come to the conclusions i mentioned earlier (how i think reading sfw fics are harmless). it’s literally just a form of harmless entertainment lol so i don’t see why ppl have to be so judgmental about it and can’t just mind their own business 😭 so dw, coming from a fellow reader and someone who has faced the same dilemma, you are not at all a freak 😭 and don’t let anyone let you think otherwise 😤☹️

also i can’t go without saying a huge thank you for all the kind things you had to say about my works :((( <3 that is so sweet of you to say and is so encouraging. it’s smth i’m finding i need a lot of, esp lately, so i rlly appreciate that and it means a lot. this whole ask and talking about this is rlly quite meaningful to me tbh 😭 so thank you for coming to me and being so brave to bring this up! 🫶🏻 also, yes let’s be friends omg !! i’d love that 🥹🫶🏻

desperate mystery man here to wonder WHO thinks tooru could ever top. personally ive always seen juuzou as being the one who'd top between them the top not just bc it's canon, but also bc im a masochist with a lowkey crush on him

so thats what brought us together, huh?? unless you’re just agreeing w me bc i might as well be juuzou-kin and am awful at hiding my slight not-that-kind-but sadistic streak… 👀

lmao im just kidding abt that part but still:

didn't keep tabs on peachblossom and can't recall the exact things she's said but she was also on twitter (under a different user) and yeah def akgae vibes tho noransaekk (who she was friends with so probs a negative influence) was by far the most toxic one nd still gives me the creeps to this day... sad considering her acc basically got me into km back in the day

Ohhh Twitter can expose the negative side of people even more than Tumblr.... Sounds like she had some bad friends who led her astray. 

Hello I am the anom who spoke about Peach, it was because of blogs like hers that I said that you were doing well and that everything is ok to take a break from time to time. She was super reasonable at first until I think all the negativity was too much for her. I have been watching km since before the gcf and I can guarantee that stoning bad she was not the worst around. I'm sorry, when I mentioned her to you it was because I wanted you to look at her first posts because she has good points at the beginning, I didn't want to bring up a fight about it As I have been around since the beginning of 2017, I saw several blogs that were incredibly reasonable at the beginning and that were lost to negativity during the process, fortunately the majority disabled and with that we lost both good and bad posts. I'm sorry again to bring up this subject.

Oh don’t apologize!! I think learning about the past within our fandom is important for me. 

Re: peachblossomsofair I used to follow her back then and she did make really interesting and insightful posts. From what I can remember, she got hate because she wrote posts about how she thought there was a reason as to why there was a decline in KM moments (a fight? I can’t remember exactly) and I remember her repeatedly stating that it’s her own opinion and it’s just speculation and people are free to disagree, so regarding that matter, I don’t think she deserved the hate. Then she became a JM solo stan (I agree with you that I don’t think solo stans are bad as long as they just focus on their faves and not hate on the other members) and I don’t really know how that happened. I also don’t recall seeing any of her posts bashing JK but perhaps I missed it? I don’t know, I don’t really want to call her an anti without seeing proof of it first either. I guess you’ll have to see for yourself and make your own judgement, or wait until somebody comes up with the evidence. Till then, she’s just someone who became a JM solo stan. It’s a shame, really, because her posts were really great. 

Yeah I looked at some of her really old posts and there were a few I really liked! I saw the posts about her thinking they broke up/became more distanced (Circa late 2018) and I mean, looking back, she was clearly wrong. It’s sad that she got hate for it, but honestly we shouldn’t speak about things like that as fact when they clearly aren’t. 

I’m glad you agree with me about the solo stan thing; I know it isn’t a popular opinion. Yep, if someone gives me proof I’ll 100% hear it out but her posts are kind of toxic so I’m not going to look into it for myself. Don’t need that negative energy in my life...
