#i'm just weak for a lot of identity and man vs mans terrible brain nonsense

saw your tags on that last ask [eyes emoji] moon knight fic is a huge untapped market, i'm telling you, especially for the kind of long fics you tend to write (since there's like less than a thousand fics total right now and most are pretty short) :)

The Moon Knight tag is a fucking barren wasteland. I opened it up and I saw tumbleweeds. And horniness for Oscar Isaac. Awful.

I'm trying to finish the No Chip thing I'm writing /the Batman fanfic I started writing MONTHS ago and got distracted from by Star Wars that I really want to go back to /for just like god's sakes anything else but yes these weirdo little guys are taking up brain space. Imagine having so many problems that you just make up a guy about them. So great. Marc put Steven in a turtle terrarium and fed him a lot of spinach and gave him a lot of enrichment and this is a great use of his time and a reasonable coping mechanism. Hot new Deviantart sona self-insert OC dropped and he's a little meow meow, very unproblematic, has all of my wife's interests, look he's a vegan - look, Konshu, you told me to get a hobby, this counts -

The thing is that I am a gigantic fucking comics nerd, and any kind of comics thing I write integrates an embarrassingly large amount of knowledge. The Loki fic I wrote ages ago was a combination of three different Thor comic runs, the Fraction & Aja Hawkeye, two different TV shows, MCU Thor 1, my medievalism classes in college, and the Poetic Edda. The X-Men series from FOREVER ago was an actual combination of 50 years worth of characters. Or the Batman stuff, and I will absolutely not admit how much Batman I've read in my life. I know more about Deadpool than 95% of the people who write Deadpool fanfic I SWEAR -

I actually know jack, zero, and shit about Moon Knight. There's not much to know, he's boring. Those funny comic panels are photoshopped. He's never had a really good comic. I wouldn't be speaking from a love of the character. I would mostly be speaking from the intense hilarity of the entire premise. Which is usually enough for me, but what that effectively means is I have a lot of jokes but no concrete plot for a fic.

I will say - why is the entire Tumblr tag woobie'ing Marc? He's really morally gray. That's the whole thing. Him sucking a bit is kind of the crux of the entire show, it's why so much of the show happens. He is literally girlboss gaslight gatekeep. If he didn't suck then Steven wouldn't be a thing. Why aren't we focusing on how hilarious this show is.
