#i'm just happy to be here

[veeagainsttheday]

I recently became aware of discourse surrounding the Ed/Stede/Zheng fic I wrote with P. Funnily enough I didn't even get credited as one of the authors, which is the worst part of the whole thing to me!

However, I want to remind everyone on OFMD tumblr that NO ONE in OFMD has a canon sexuality, with the possible exception of Lucius, whose mum thought he liked girls for years.

You can head canon anyone however you like, but neither Ed nor Stede has a canon sexuality, and insisting that they do rings my biphobia alarm.

i've been on tumblr for less than six months, but i feel like i've been here for years. for years, most of my social media consumption was just screenshots of tumblr posts on other platforms (especially pinterest lmao) because there was no way to be part of fandoms without tumblr posts. having a tumblr now feels like i'm finally allowed to sit with the cool kids that i've been watching through a window for 10 years. so like, i'm new, but i'm also fluent in everything that has happened on tumblr for a decade

Fandom: Masters of the Air (TV 2024) Rating: Explicit Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Gale "Buck" Cleven/John Clarence "Bucky" Egan, Gale "Buck" Cleven/Marge (Masters of the Air)  Summary:

But no skirt in the world could come close to finally seeing Buck again, to standing out back at his childhood home the night before his wedding while the sounds of a party wafted outside like steam from a fresh-baked blueberry pie. It was a perfect summer evening: not too much heat, a glittering purple dusk, and a flask passed between them in blissful, comfortable silence.

“Thanks for comin’ out here with me,” said Buck after a while. “Needed a little break from all the action.”

“‘Cause you sure ain’t getting one tomorrow,” replied John, leaning against the tall wooden fence with a grin.

Buck chuckled softly. John held his breath. His joy was intoxicating, as precious, sweet, and pure as the first flower after a flood.

“I’m happy for you,” he said, because he was. This was what Buck wanted. This was what made Buck happy.

John would pull the moon down out of the sky to keep Buck happy.

No one else said this yet, but I feel like every time I look at your art, it smacks me in the face. Your art has visibly improved so much since you first started posting here. Like, it started out great, and I immediately started obsessing over it, but the most recent posts are just ���� *chefs kiss* perfecto. Like, the colors, the staging, the textures, everything!

Oh this, this is making me all soft inside, this must be one of the cutest thing someone has said to me.

I'm so happy when people enjoy my art, you have no idea how much these type of comments mean to me! They really make my day and make me really happy!

And thank you for pointing out the slowly improvement that is my goal like

I used to draw males soooo wonkily BC I get commissioned most of the time to draw women, and most of my main Oc's are women as well, sometimes slim, sometimes chubby sometimes buff, but women nonetheless

So drawing guys was a pain in the ass and I avoided it for a long time because I never enjoyed the result, it always looked weird, like too long torso or birth giving hips lmao. It didn't help that for a long time I also wasn't drawing for myself, just for work so I wasn't that inspired to just, improve y'know?

This fandom, this community and all the users (AND ALL THE FANFICS-- I'M LOOKIN AT YOU ERI) always makes me feel so welcome and just drawing these characters makes me feel so full and happy, and has make me improve so much drawing guys BC I CAN LOOK AT MAX TORSO NOW AND SAY HELL YEA DID I DO THAT FINALLY LOOKS HOW I WANT IT TO

And I'm so happy to share my art with you and everyone!! I aspire to get better on each piece, because this really reignates the passion in me

I'm rambling at this point, I just, thank you for the comment, this fandom, the people here, really mean a lot to me

Very Kind people will ask me what I want to do or what my opinion on that is

Like man, thank you but I destroyed my capacity to feel desire at 16

Realizing people are experiences and not possessions has helped me get over so many friendships and relationship break ups lol

I am incredibly serious right now when I beg you all, please, and if you have Twitter or Tiktok or whatever to please spread the word: click on an author's profile on Ao3.

You want to know if an author has written more? Want to know if they're still writing? Want to see more from them? Want to know if they've written a trope or kink or sex scenario you enjoy?

Click on their name. And look at their profile.

I cannot tell you how many times in the last six months someone has read a new or newer fic of mine and said they (a new reader who has read nothing else I've done) "can't wait to see what you do next!" I've written 50+ fics and over a million words already.

"I don't know if you're still writing..." click on my profile. I am. I literally wrote a 128k+ fic for that ship last month.

"Would you ever do X?" "Please do Y!" I already did. Click on my name and look at my works.

Archive of our Own is a library. It's an archive. Not social media. It is your responsibility to fight back against the laziness that corporate algorithms have trained into you.

Click my author name. Just click it. Just click it.

Before you demand more, or ask if a writer will do XYZ, or wonder if the author still writing, or anything - click on their profile. Click on the author's profile.

I'm not trying to be mean or condescending or anything like that. I'm just exhausted. It's disheartening and frustrating to repeat myself ad nauseam, because someone couldn't take thirty seconds to do the tiniest bit of work to see if I've written lately, if I've written more for their ship, or scan my works to see if I've written what they're asking for. Please. Please. I'm begging.

Click the author's name, and explore before you ask.

Thinking about Them 🥺

thinking about a world in which RR actually committed to the path he set Percy on in hoo (wherein Percy has become jaded, angry, and resentful at the gods for breaking their sworn promises, is frequently sympathizing with Luke, is getting more and more powerful, and frequently losing himself to wrath) and instead of the subsequent Percy Jackson books being about getting recommendation letters, we could have gotten a trilogy exploring a fallen hero arc for Percy (that would ultimately have a positive resolution to it.)

ENG PLAYERS I BESEECH YOU

I have been informed that you guys are getting part 4 of episode 7 tomorrow, which means we are FINALLY going to get the official romanization of Revaan's name, somebody please tell me because I need to know what it is.

like, yes, it's probably just Revan/Levan, but look, I'm sitting here with my finger over the button of all these Laverne and Shirley jokes and just waiting for the opportunity to deploy them --

being aromantic is like. hey btw you're going to live a life that is the culmination of most of society's worst nightmares. sorry lol ✌️ but then you turn around and take a really good hard look at it and it turns out that living in that nightmare is fucking awesome and you get to wake up every day and take that fear that other people have and laugh and hold it close until it's a great joy for you instead. and being happy is a radical act that you define instead of someone else. and you're sexy as fuck that's just a fact of life i don't make the rules on that one
