DCRC Week #22

Guys I'm gonna be so fr I couldn't even think of anything to put at the beginning of this post. We're reading PKNA #18: Ancient Future that's all I got 😭 it's my last 2 weeks of the semester give me a break

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH THEY'RE ON A DATE OOOOOOOOOOO

What a nice night surely nothing could go wro-

nvm I forgot that this Duckburg is a crime-ridden hellscape worse than St. Canard

snoozer abuse </3

Ok so for the record, I'm fully convinced that whoever was responsible for this comic just played a game of DnD and was like "holy shit... I could put this in a duck comic" and that's why this chapter exists. And like I don't know a lot about the behind the scenes of this chapter but I haven't seen anything to prove me wrong sooo

Huge shoutout to the subplot here of Uno just fucking around with these robber guys, I love him

GUYS WOAHH NO WAY NEW ORB CHARACTER JUST DROPPED!!

Oh wait nevermind it's just like a crystal ball thing it's not alive

Bro is loredumping and PK doesn't give a fuuuuck he might be me

*squints* is that Odin's mansion

Lyla Lay the most beautiful and stunning woman in the whole wide world and then PK who is just like some little gremlin man

Ok so (spoiler for the ending of this comic I guess) I know this isn't actually the real Lyla but GOD please tell me it's still canon to her design that she has a big fucking rocket in her chest cause like COME ON. IT'S SO COOL. I love when Lyla does freaky robot shit and she should do it more often. She should just straight up vaporize people actually, I'd support her.

STOP SHUTTING HER DOWN DONALD YOU'RE RUINING IT

THE X-TRANSFORMER GOT THAT DAWG IN IT, WOOF

haha uh oh!! that sounds bad

Oh brother not THIS guy again (((person who actually really likes the Raider hey bud what's up how's the kid))

He misses his wife

Crying PK is third wheeling so bad

No Lyla always looks like that idk what you're talking about

FRIEND?!?!?! NO WAYYYY YOU GUYSSS WE'RE FIXING HIM. EVEN IF THIS ISN'T THE SAME RAIDER PROBABLY

Uno scolding Donald like a mom who's mad that her son stayed out late. "You should've left me a NOTE before you got vaporized to another dimension young man!!!"

"ok now tell me everything :333"

Don't worry guys we're not done yet cause it's time for BURTON LA VALLE.... yay....

ok but like who gaf about burton la valle BOOO BOOOOO BRING BACK TRIP!!! at least the art is nice

Mf used the word BOMBASTIC 💀

AAAAAAH THIS IS A DONALD DUCK COMIC YOU CAN'T SAY ASS!!!

Oh so they're from Earth

WHO KEEPS PUTTING THE R SLUR IN THESE COMICS 😭😭😭

Ok NOW I'm done. The only thing I really have to say about the main comic is that I really wanna know where the actual Lyla was during all this, cause presumably the evil droid thing was there from the very beginning all the way at the restaurant. And also I'm a little sad that Donald and Lyla didn't actually get to eat dinner together cause that would've been cute... platonic or romantic is up to you idc either way.

I will also add that this comic piques my interest just a little more on reread, specifically in regards to The Organization and some of their later developments that I'm not allowed to spoil. But like there's food for thought here that might come back later.

I miss Trip.

[domjaehyun]

omg i was notttt prepared for smut in the first quarter and yet we're spiTTINGGG????? haechan u freak (me too i guess)

tbim making me feel so many things likeee it's all such a mess (which i love does that make me a masochist idk) and i feel so bad for every fucking character like yn is confused and haechan is a dick (in every sense) and winter is pretty self explanatory and then there's jeno who got dragged into it poor boy. and all of their friends myyyy god if i was one of them i would be torrrnn any decision they decide make regarding yn and hyuck it's like basically picking sides and i would feel so fucking bad if i had to

and i just want to add a tier of my fav your work of yours and idc if udc

1.pussy fiend (been here since it came out literally never leaving)

2.tangerine love (weirdly a very comforting fic likeeee what's wrong with meeee)

3.the boy is mine (new entry might even rank up based on the ending have so much hope for this one)

and i wanted the patreon contents sooooo bad but i live on the other side of the world and when the currency is converted its craaaazyyy im so sorry ill just have to imagine shit myself and support u morally ig if i am any help

OMG HEHEHE HI HI

yeah we’re spitting IN MY DEFENSE THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ONE LONG FIC I DIDNT MEAN TO COME OUT THE GATE SWINGING WITH SPITTING IN THE FIRST SCENE OF PART 5 😭 yeah me too that’s hot hehe

I’M SO HAPPY YOU SAID THAT that means im doing something right :D I DONT THINK IT MAKES YOU A MASOCHIST it makes you human. it makes you curious. feeling emotions is what makes life worth living (and hopefully the good emotions are powerful enough to make you stick through the bad ones) so wanting to read complex situations with a myriad of emotions makes total sense! it’s more realistic than, like, i am…… bc ideally i would never have angst ever ever ever only happy thoughts at all times :D and yeah they’re all going through it EVEN HAECHAN GIVE HIM A BIT OF GRACE!!!!

OF COURSE I CARE I LOVE KNOWING WHAT PEOPLE LOVED MOST OUT OF MY WORKS !!!!! now im going down 1 by 1:

1. pussy fiend — this is fair i love pussy fiend it’s perfect perverted lovesick haechan like what is wrong with that boy and can he date me

2. TANGERINE LOVE MEANS SO MUCH TO ME I ADORE IT HE’S SO . FJKGLDSJKGFJKLDKJ I CANT EVEN FORMULATE WORDS something abt that specific haechan is so dreamy. its one of the first times i considered like . him just knowing she likes him from the get go like in pussy fiend he figures it out at the end but in tangerine love he can tell like from the beginning and theres no playing around with her emotions, he’s just very earnest while still being hot and flirtatious and playful and i love that so much

3. HEHEHE well i hope it ranks up but i would understand if it stayed in the same place bc i am not sure how you want the ending to go,,,,, but i hope it goes the way you wanted!!!!!!!!! :D

AND i was thinking about this earlier but if you wanted to like . paypal/venmo/cashapp me the $6, i could share the tbim patreon content with you!!! like if you can’t do a monthly subscription i totally get it bc we’ve all got stuff going on !!!! i’ve already done it for one person and i wouldn’t mind doing it again!! if you’re interested u could come off anon and i could work something out w you? up to you though no pressure 💖 THANK YOU SO MUCH DARLING THIS MADE ME SO HAPPY have a great day ily 🫂

[lovelytayforce]

I agree with this comment here so hard, I remember getting blasted for calling readers who don't comment "leeches" on R/Fanfiction and I'm glad people are seeing that for what it is even if it's four years late

So, I'm gonna share my own little story here because discord has actively ruined communities for fanfic (and art too I'm not gonna leave y'all out cause my bestie @zoetiger-1106 is an artist who deserves way more praise than she gets!!) The reason why authors and myself see the "I'm shy" shit as an excuse is because the same people will type long ass tirades on Discord without a single thought. YOU CAN EDIT AO3 COMMENTS PEOPLE! If you make a mistake, read it back over and edit it. I've watched it happen in real-time with one of my favorite commenters on my one-shot where they left a short gushing comment and then came back and wrote more, you have no excuse much less reason to go "Man fandom keeps telling me to not critique and I might make a mistake so I will say nothing and consume like the average TV and Streaming consumer who thinks there doing something!" YOU have a lot of power with comments and even those bookmark tags hell just copy-paste what you put into those bookmark tags as a comment I DON'T CARE AT THIS POINT USE THAT LIL BOX TO VOICE SOMETHING!!!! God this is all over the place idc but I read back at those bookmarks, and saw people call my works the best and super cool and I APPRECIATE THAT but tell me! Stop taking the easy route, I been blasted for misunderstandings over comments multiple times cause people take my "tone" terribly cause it sucks being black and emotive online yay and for some reason people think !!!! Is bad? yes, I've been hit with that but I keep on trucking cause fuck whatever some weirdo thinks about exclamation points! Anyways back to discord and why I hate it now, I was in a small fandom, KFP got invited to a discord cause ONE person commented on my works and saw they talked about my fic, and at first, I was happy and people TALKED about my chapters at length in the fanfic channel. I basically was the ONLY ONE posting consistently in that channel and it was great but also I wanted that on my fic to show I improved so guess what I did? I went all in trying to one-up myself to be noticed, to have the acclaim my peers did so it would evolve outside of discord channels but it never happened. And Imma tell y'all now; it never will. Readers prefer convenience over your hard work, they are not gonna take time for you no matter how much you improve. People told me over and over while I looked for solutions for this; "We can't make commenting look like an obligation." "Add more prose, space these paragraphs better" all this just for no one to take the initiative and say something SINCERE towards a work they love on it. I've had to tell my own ex-friends now to go leave comments on works they called Masterpieces while ignoring me. Despite the fact they wanted Gen content in which I WROTE. Or met people who have very weird "I don't review" rules for themselves despite getting motivated by reviews themselves!! We're in a shitty time for creatives much less community cause we don't see each other as humans much less want to treat each others as we desire to be treated. Fanfic readers want to treat authors like showrunners and I hate it. But then your peers will tell you 'not to worry about engagement" and no I am because why is my hit count going up every day but ain't no one saying shit? Make it make sense!! I sat in that community commenting as much as I could, especially on long fics; it wasn't all perfect but I TRIED. I didn't expect shit back but hey it would have been nice but it never happened and again I learned; it never would. That's the real issue, no one wants to give no more; just take and take and take til you're sucked dry of passion worse than any corpo out right now. It's why I thankfully switched fandoms. I got ONE consistent commenter and they are better than that ENTIRE SMALL CLOSED COMMUNITY!! So, to any discord reactor for fanfic you better skip on to that message you made and copy and paste it in this box right here and never utter "I'm shy" ever again cause we see you, our friends tell us about you. You are not as anonymous as you think! 🫵🏽

A writer friend told me something that broke my heart a little bit today; they're going to quit publishing their fanfic.

My instant thought was that they had been trolled or attacked or that something terrible had happened in their life because this person is so passionate about their writing. It wasn't any of that. Engagement with their works has been going down, as it has for many of us. Comments are like gold dust a lot of the time, and just looking through the historical comment counts on old fics on ao3 demonstrates this trend very clearly. It was not simply the comments dropping off which caused them to decide to stop posting, however.

My friend came across a discord server for their fandom (I should point out here that their fandom interest and mine diverged a couple of years ago, we stay in touch but don't currently read each other's posts because I'm not into their fandom and they would rather gouge their eyes out with a wooden spoon than read anything Star Wars) and specifically to share fic in that fandom. They joined, because we all love a good fic rec, only to discover that their latest multichapter fic, which has almost no comments and very few kudos, is being hotly discussed in this server as one of the best stories ever. Not one of these people has bothered to say this to them on the fic. When they asked, none of participants could see the point in telling the author of the fic they apparently loved so much that they love it.

This discovery has absolutely destroyed my friend's love of sharing fic. They share because they love seeing other people's enjoyment, and fic writers do that through comments and kudos/reblogs/likes because we don't get paid. There is no literary critic writing a blog post/article about how amazing the story is for us to copy and keep/frame. There is no money from royalties. All we have are the words of the people reading our works.

Those people on that server could have taken five minutes of the time they spent gushing about how amazing my friend's story was to other people and used it to tell the one person guaranteed to want to hear that praise how much they loved it. They could have taken a moment to express their opinion to the person who spent hours upon hours plotting, writing, editing, and posting those chapters. Instead, they deprived my friend of thing that keeps them sharing their writing, and in the process have killed their love of it. My friend now feels used and unmotivated.

I won't be sharing a link to their fic, they said I could share their experience but not their identity. I know they plan to post one final chapter. I know they intend to express their hurt at being excluded from the praise for the thing they created, and I know they intend to announce that as a consequence they will not be posting for a long while, if at all.

So please, I beg you, don't hide your love of a story from the writer. It's just about the only thing we have.

[embrassemoi]

(1/5) Oh we're finally back to hogwarts and this was such a great beginning for an interesting year. We started with mc throwing her letters on the floor for her mother to see (good for her) and then destroying snape with lily (it's what he deserves). And remus? With that little bunny? Are you trying to kill me?? I've never seen anybody giving him an actual bunny as a pet but I love it. Just imagine how cute that would be! I'm so glad he seems to be doing better after everything. And he can even

we're back, back, back again at Hogwarts! and I just wanted to say that this chapter, aside from ch 18 and Remus' pov, was probably the funnest to write. Because not only does the MC just not give a fuck and is fed up with everyone and everything (which makes her v fun to write lmfao), but now her friendship with Remus is getting SOMEWHERE!

and I thought it would've been so cute, Remus and a little rabbit??! oh. my. god. it's official. this fic might be the furtherest thing from canon but fuck it - Remus having a pet rabbit is canon. idc. IMAGINE REMUS LAYING IN HIS BED, THE SUN BEAMING DOWN, READING - WHILE HIS BUNNY IS JUST SNUGGLING INTO HIS CHEST. AHHHHHHHH!! fuck it, it's going to be a scene in SBTMAS.

(2/5) joke about sirius and mc being together and talks comfortably about smelling them on each other! (Laugh while you can moony.) Also reactions of the james and peter killed me. “That’s like my little sister and ex-step brother fucking!” James WHY? Then peter asked if she was with regulus! And poor lily! I love triangle between mc, remus and sirius, but I hate to see her so heartbroken. Now can we talk about Elizabeth Elway? I don't know much about her but I love her already. A dumbledore

Right? Like haha - in cases like this, slowburn is SO MUCH FUN because I'll get to fucking torture Remus lmfao. this is going to come back and haunt him.

(3/5) level duelist! And she seems really nice as well. Rip professor keys, you won't be missed.  I loved the scene where she was examining mc's wand but I'm wondering if her wand supposed to give us clues about mc and her future? (Yes, I did check what her wand wood and core means bc I'm a nerd. For example aspen wands seems to good for duelists.) “I’m not very good at offensive spells.” “That’s because you haven’t gotten the chance to study under me." What a queen! (It will be so sad to see

I love Elway. Point blank. It's been one chapter and I already love writing her. AND LMFAO THE 'Rip professor keys, you won't be missed' - THAT MADE ME BURST OUT LAUGHING HAHAH!

Also nice predictions! and woah! you did your homework! all I'll say is that great job for picking that up!

(4/5) her go at the end of the year.) And she formed the dueling club again! I'm so ready for all the passive aggressive dueling scenes! Mc picking sirius to duel with (and then beat him, good for her), james offering to be her second. The drama and the tension! Not the mention how she barely moved when sirius bowed. By the way, this chapter made me appriciate james so much. He was willing to call sirius out on his shit, give up on quidditch to help remus He has his flaws but he's a great friend

The MC beating Sirius at the duel serves a deeper meaning. Not to take away from the fact the she did beat him, but he was so unwilling to cast a single spell and the bow he did showed how much he grown to deeply respect and care for her within their very short relationship. And publicly! all that anyone knows aside from the marauders, lily and Marlene is that she and Sirius are constantly at their necks.

(5/5) I love his friendship with mc as well, they are practically marauders era harry and hermione (and he called her his "little sister", don't touch me, I'm crying). Also I'm so happy you that you started to publish cut scenes. It was so nice to see things from diffrent perspectives. James frantically washing blood off himself and peter trying to stop him made the whole prank thing even sadder and perfectly shows how much it affected james and peter as well. -🌸

I love James. Does he have a fuck ton of flaws? 100%. But there's no doubt that above all that he is an amazing friend that would literally do anything for them. Also the MC and James work so well with each other. I truly think that she's the sister James never had.

Yeah that scene with James after the prank - I really, REALLY wanted to add it in but I didn't think it meshed well but it showed a new level to the Marauder's depth that I thought it would've been a waste if I just deleted it.

Thanks for your ask bestie!

[baekhvuns]

Shit bestie, I'm back I lowkey thought I replied to you again, but it was just in my head 😐

Did you do anything for Halloween? I went to another kpop party, made a friend who yelled the lyrics to Fireworks so loudly I respect that! And I saw Terrifier 2, they were handing out puke bags sfjffhdguldfkfjdfd I didn't use them, but we took them home lol

Bald Kai do not say that I do not wanna see

It was Kkoongie's birthday two days ago, when are we gonna get more of them, pls this whole acc is so cute!

Seriously I would be so into Holland, Hyuna, Hyojong (btw Mr Dawn's bald era soon too.... sad) collab, it would be so iconic

Alright so about the fake eggs thing, there are some liquid egg-y mixtures, I use them for omlettes and whatnot. You can add kala namak to make it taste extra egg-like. I feel like some meat replacements are more for non-plant based people unless you like meat, cause the flavour is a bit too intense sometimes. 🤚🏻 Like I tasted new faux tuna recently and why did it smelled and tasted SO FISHY. WE'RE FISHY FISHY LIKE

What a mooood (btw I still haven't re-read Mr-I'll-Guard-Your-Body, but I have to)...how is the cursed fic going bestie <3?

Two members of Pixy left due to personal/health issues and they added a new member, she seems sweet and will be another rapper since the other one is gone :/ the venue was soooo tiny, the stage was very limiting, but it was fun! I'm seeing DC soon btw. Girlies have our Europeans back, Sunmi, Loona, Pixy, Dreamcatcher 😘

The Itaewon tragedy is so horrible, I still can't believe it. I know Itaewon is crowded, but god.. I was worried about my friends, especially one who's staying in Itaewon. She sold her Ateez day 2 ticket, cause she just couldn't go... I know Ateez, DC and Oneus couldn't cancel their events because of contracts, but it was probably hard for them too :(

Congrats for predicting Dazzling Light! The set list is questionable, but oh well...

Me with Inception, The Leaders too, but Inception, DV... watch the person be Hongjoong or something, well idc square up little guy!

Why is he giving barbie girl core kinda, I can't explain it, but he does

This I- so pretty, so cute and so sexily rude

SICKNESS!!!!!!!!

Omg do you remember my friend who dreamt of long-haired Hwa three nights in a row? She's getting wrecked by him SO HARD, even bought an overpriced ticket because I quote "that hot milf won't leave me alone!" she was already impressed with him after seeing Ateez in concert for the first time 👀 Park Seonghwa continues to steal everyone's attention. I'm satisfied. - DV 💖
