"I'm so angry that newsies is so squeaky clean and disneyfied" how do i break it to you that it's a pg disney property

[dazais-guardian-angel]

gotta say that if bram stoker is trying to convince me that Renfield isn't actually future Johnathan from another timeline, then he isn't doing a very good job at it

If that gloves thing in TBOB taught me anything, it's that Fiddleford 100% fell first and fell HARD

[skrunksthatwunk]

so the eikichi-centric kuwabara fic is going well

Idk how you feel about asks anymore but I remember you answering one about the "We Don't Talk About Kenny" Video essay and thought you might be interested in on inspired by it, "Kenny: A Beloved Abuser" By The Early Bird 2

As you can guess, the comments are completely sane and respectful about it-that's a lie, it's about what you would expect from a video daring to say Kenny is at all a bad person (even people going as far as to claim that calling him abusive is disrespectful to real abuse victims)

It's not as detailed as "We Don't Talk About Kenny" but I still think it's worth a watch

I still love getting asks, I just can't get to them as regularly as I used to.

I haven't heard of this video, though, so I gave it a quick watch. Then I glanced at the comments and they're about what I expected. When it comes to Kenny, people are often on the extremes.

Kenny's one of those characters where he's a great, well-written character and interesting to discuss, but I can't stand him. He's an asshole, and by the end of S2, all I want is to get Clementine the hell away from him.

I know he's had a resurgence in popularity in the main tag lately. That's fine, people can like what they like as long as they're not being dicks about it. It's just odd for me since I'm so used to going there and seeing more TFS content than S1.

It's also hard to discuss Kenny with other people because of the extreme opinions and the hostility. It's not productive to try and explain something only for the stan to be like "no shut the fuck up you don't know what you're talking about--" like... at that point, they're not actually here for a discussion, they just want someone to agree with them, y'know?

Sometimes it's not even worth trying to talk about Kenny, so I commend this person for tossing an opinion out there. The comments are pretty brutal, but there's also some support.

Would it be oh-so wrong of me to take a little break from MG3 to work on an outline for my ghost ship story idea? That might be the little writer devil on my shoulder talking, but idk, he's got good ideas sometimes

[infinitelystrangemachinex]

Come on, you know you want to, give us the character bingo for Viktor.

[byanyan]

still alive but still struggling

[vaguely-concerned]

I've written 5000 words of lucanis and rye fic the last two days and the only reason the wip isn't even longer yet is probably that my brain turns into useless ash and blows away for the day once it's channeled the lightning bolt of writing energy for a couple of hours and needs to sleep before it can stand up to another onslaught.

[kairiscorner]

man u guys are funni you don't think i remember this? (tw: dr*gs and ov*r*os*)

first time? that's rich, right @miguelswifey04

at least change your wording to make it look more original bro

anyway, please STOP SENDING REPEATED REQUESTS. I AM NOT A ROBOT WHO IS REQUIRED TO MAKE YOUR STORIES. if you want to see it written, write it yourself :> i didn't respond to your request at first because i was uncomfortable with it, there, i said it. i'm sorry, but i cannot and will not fulfil your request. i think i've made it clear in my rules that i will not do disturbing themes, i am not required to, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY'RE REPEATED REQUESTS.

i'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you're not the same anon spamming me and asking lin (hopefully not other writers) with this very request, i'm gonna tell you right now i am not comfortable with writing this. i'm sorry if i sound angry, bc i am. please respect us writers the same way as we respect you anons; i didn't respond to your previous req so as not to embarrass you or anything, but i can't keep quiet anymore.

sorry for the long ass rant, tl;dr: i'm not gonna write this, and if you send another req EXACTLY LIKE THIS OR HAS THE SAME THEME AS THIS OR ANYTHING TRIGGERING, YOU WILL GET BLOCKED. g'day.

[quietlyblooms]

a reminder that chiyo wouldn't be here if not for my hyperfixation on h.aikyuu!! i made her shortly after watching the first season of the anime ( that's all that was out at the time ), making her a manager for our beloved crows before discovering oh!! they have managers :' ) so she then became a sports column writer for the newspaper, and that's how it's stayed even in her general high school verse bc i'm sentimental as heck <3

I keep seeing you taking about your fics may i enquire where you post such things?

Ah that's an interesting question.

I, uh, don't. Generally speaking.

Like rn the most my ao3 has is, like, 3 mlp short fics which I only posted because the mlp fandom has its own fanfic site and nobody reads mlp fic on ao3 because of that. And that's barely scratching the surface of all the fic I've written for mlp alone, which according to my writing doc, is currently sitting at a word count of 128k.

And with being in the mechanisms fandom I now currently have no irl friends who would be the ones to push me into posting my fic. Unfortunately the fics my irls have encouraged me to post in the past were on a separate, now deleted, blog (though this is the internet and I'm sure copies can still be found floating about because of reblogs).

I suppose I could try to work up the courage to publish some of my mechs stuff? If that's something people would be interested in?

[citrine-elephant]

but why is it fun to write leon throwing a fuckin tantrum?

[skrunksthatwunk]

why the fuck did i write about birds this fucking sucks. i just found out birds only sleep for a few minutes at a time, hundreds of times a day. do you know what this is going to do to my structure? the logistics of their road trip? this is already like three days late and i've been fighting for my life to get A Plot Like Any Plot That Makes Sense out and now the birds fucking sleep for 5 minutes at a time.
