#not to vague abt a particular niche of a fandom no one cares about BUT im losing my mind a bit#bc there's a ship that literally got me so invested that i read fanfiction for the 1st time. i adore them so much#i think their canon relationship is so fucking lovely and its bullshit what happened to them. if u kno u kno.#but now i go to ao3 and try to find fics and im like... yo y do these all fucking suck?#like i get it. no one has given a fuck abt this fandom since like the 2010s but i mean ive read lots of way better fics for waaaay#tinier fandoms. i guess thoses ppl just cared way more. no one gives enough of a fuck to write a good fic for these 2.#ugh. im probably just being a bitch. like is it bc its a heterosexual ship? is the bar really so low for writing straight relationships that#they have to b so fucking boring immediately???? like what the fuck is happening. i feel like im losing my mind#wheres the passion? where the dedication? wheres the willingness to die for eachother and fight side by side?#its all boring bullshit or weird self insert feeling smut. or maybe its me. maybe im the problem bc i refuse to read the fics that have#adultery and divorce in them bc im so in denial abt the ending of bleach that i cannot stand to even look at#the canon endgame ships. it makes me to angry. so yea maybe im the problem#i jus6 don't understand it. its the same for narut0 x s4suke fics. like????#did we watch the same show??? why tf r u writing them so weird and boring and wrong????#that one i them im right abt bc others have confirmed it. but idk abt these 2. my fucking original otp is cursed to toil away in bad#fanfiction. or maybe all the good fics r on ff dot net. but fuck if im gonna wade thru that hellsite#anyway. this is what u get when u get invested in terrible anime. i mean with peace and love it is my nostalgia show but like u kno#unrelated

Hello! I'm quite new to the idv fandom, and I was wondering why luchinini is so popular among many? No hate or anything like that towards it, I'm just curious!
welcome. it is batshit in here be prepared. AS FOR YOUR QUESTION.... I actually don't know. for me it's the character dynamic. I think they fit together well as far as complimenting eachother. antonio is a romantic hedonist who lives to love and be loved. and luchino is. WELL. other than being a freak for reptiles. a logistical sort with a great curiosity and an even GREATER penchant for sating that curiosity. other people might have different reasons!!!!!!!!!! I just think personality wise they compliment each other well. It's popularity (i say that lightly) could honestly potentially be attributed to the fact they're both Italian. WHICH IS KIND OF FUNNY. a lot of ships are very random here anyway so I wouldn't be surprised lol
#sorry if thia is very lownenergu i just woke up#arenblab#aab#HAVE FUN IN THE IDV FANFOM#been partly having fun and p a rtly losing my mind for 4 years#i lov eit#i do have to admit that#another reason that i ship it#OR RATHEE WHAT GOT ME TO SHIO IT.#Was fandom work#specifically art (circusblades used to be a big one for me)#AND THEN EVEN MORE SPECIFICALLY.#this one fic.#it isn't bad. LIke morally ot anything#IT CAME FROM THE “PRE-PFOFESSOR” ERA. BEFORE HE GOT A CANON SURVIVOR DESIGN#the plotline was that. antonio and luchi (hunter form) are together. luchino#and kne day luchino manages to cure himself of his mutation.#(which yk he wouldn't actually really WANT. he canonically is crazy about it but i was invested so sh...)#so tye baron moves him to the survivor side. and he doesn't tell anyone what happened.#melly finds out though and they become besties. (hence my platonjc luchimelly bias)#baby-steps by mochiipetals if youre curious. im not writing the whole thing down but when i tell you i was checking this#work for updayes everyday.#it is pretty ooc yhough

Do you ever watch s3 and s4 and realise you're not enjoying it that much
#im kinda in two minds#cause there ARE so many insane details and subtext and all that#and i love reading your guys analyses#but at the same time#actually watching through the eps in s3/4?#they're often tedious#no i dont wanna hear another monologue from the most irritating character in the universe murray bauman#why'd you introduce russians in a massive underground bunker for gods sakes#i thought this was a small intimate story about normal ppl faced with the unknown of the supernatural#not the eye of the cold war storm#any dangerous scene? literally any time they put a character in danger?#idc im not invested praying they'll make it through#cause they always always make it through#even when it seems like they literally died#and what is with the quipiness in the later season?#like all those like marvel lines and interactions and witty one liners and moments where they finish each others sentences would make me#roll my eyes in any other show that i already wasnt invested in#even byler#i love byler with all my heart and i dont doubt they're endgame#but for me even that sweet knowledge is soured by the fact it seems they're trying to cater to every demographic in their massive audience#they turned hopper in this super macho muscle gun man who appeals to people who want a tom cruise show#they're trying to keep both jancy and stancy fans satisfied simultaneously#i dont doubt byler will happen but i just think its going to be very small importance-wise screen-time wise in the midst of everything else#i've sort of had cognitive dissonance cause ive been in this space where everybody praises the shit out of it (i mean duh its a fandom)#and they point out impressive details and links and say stuff like 'the duffers had everything planned from the beginning!'#so i was refusing to acknowledge that i wasnt enjoying actually watching the show as it strayed further from what it had been in s1#sorry guys gotta agree with friendly soace ninja on this one (kinda stupid to put on tags where most ppl do genuinely love the show and pls#ignore these depressing thoughts and continue happily on with your hyperfixation if you do)#stranger things#byler

No one is going to like this but the solution to people misusing mental health terminology like hyperfixation & special interest is to bring back the concept & framing of Nerd Culture. Also the term "squee".
#look we really threw out the baby with the bathwater in the process of distancing ourselves from 2010s nerd culture#and now there's a terminology vacuum#which is why people are like ''im hyperfixating'' when they're actually. ahem. ''fangirling''#i know a lot of people have convinced themselves that the level of investment in fiction that people#with tumblr accts have is actually 'normal' and therefore you don't need to call it anything. but that is simply not true.#fandom and 'nerdiness' is Considerably more mainstreamed than it used to be#but it is still not a thing that 'everyone does now'. and so people are going to want words#like to specify that they are an above average level of invested in something#so we might as well direct them away from the dsm even if the alternative is Cringe or w/e

i kinda wanna try getting myself into overwatch tumblr again but i dont know how 2 do it, the actually active people around the general tags seem to be focused on characters i dont care about or ships i vaguely dislike so im just here like 🕴️ standing in the corner and scavenging my old blog for old fanart crumbs to reblog. i dont expect an older (by modern standards) media to be popping out but i wish it was easier finding your niche here as it is on twitter (rip)
#was scurrying around the tf2 tags and man i love my mercs but apart from some cool artists i just dont vibe with the fandom here anymore#im following like 3k accounts bc this blog is ancient but theres 7 people in my dash this is just sad#what i should do is find a fresh fandom to attach myself to but my brain doesnt really get invested in things so easily#look there IS dragon age the veilguard right around the corner too but knowing i dont have money to waste on fresh releases#and i wont be able to play until 2 years later on sales (IF my old pc can even run it) really curbs my enthusiasm#even if DA is my dearest universe. the sadness is strong#so overwatch and beloved old people from overwatch is what i can do now#sms

finally blocked the jayvik tag because I actually am physically incapable of having a consistent opinion on it to the point it’s giving me brain damage
(just to note the reason why,, I don't even hate the ship I actually like it in certain dynamics and interpretations a LOT I just feel so conflicted on it that I just can't be spending my energy on allat 24/7 I wanna enjoy my evil robot wife in peace without exploding my brain over my real opinion on the fandom popular yaoi 24/7 and its discourse (FROM BOTH PROS AND ANTIS OF THE SHIP!! BOTH SIDES CAN BE EQUALLY ANNOYING!!!). I'll be missing out on a lot of content I could've enjoyed I'm aware but I just cannot be wasting time on a ship I both enjoy and hate for various reasons. I don't mind if you ship it I won't get up ur arse about that because that's irritating in and of itself. its presence just destroys my brain in the most confusing way possible)
#not tagging this as anti jayvik because I don't even particularly want anyone outside of my followers seeing this#I just needed to.. vent??? kind of????#this is extremely chronically online im aware but this is what a hyperfixation does to you I am INVESTED. im fucking TRAPPED. HELP ME!!!!!!#not pro jayvik not anti jayvik. I'm jayvik extremely confused#not neutral because I have many MANY thoughts on it. but I'm something#my post#yapping#arcane#Also I’ve never really been too fixated on ships when it comes to fandom. I’m only really a casual enjoyer when it comes to ships#but when it comes to my hyperfixations it’s both the work itself and a specific character#and yeah there are sometimes certain dynamics that I do REALLY enjoy and would LOVE to see content of (I.e: platonic viktor and jinx. I’m s#feral about that one)#but also#A lot of the time I really just. Do not give a fuck and really just want to find content of ONLY that character#like at the end of the day. When it comes down to it. A lot of the time I really do not give a fuck about shipping beyond a casual level#so it’s kind of annoying when I go into the chara tag and like. A HUGE chunk of it is just shipping discourse that I could not care less ab#other than the fact that it’s infiltrating my individual enjoyment of a character#But obv getting up peoples arses about their harmless enjoyment of different ships is annoying bitch behaviour as well#so I’m just blocking it

today was SO ASS
#work was exhausting and overwhelming and I FUCKED UP ONE OF MY NAILS. FUCK ME#also i had the awesome idea of lurking twitter and i see a bunch of people hating on joost saying he's a dick and nor a good person like ??#i know it's only a small part of the fandom and its on me too for opening twt but man......#tbf ive never really considered myself part of the fandom bc this is the only place where i actively post about him#and i only have a handful of joost moots but still ive thought about distancing myself from it ngl#cause like. being a joost fan is so exhausting sometimes like theres ALWAYS something going on#and like. idk i love joost and his music a lot and i admire him so much and i really dont wanna let other people ruin that for me#and i know i shouldn't but yeah. its hard ://#the good thing abt joostblr is everyone's just chill here but still in general theres so much negativity and hate#like its hard to not let it ruin the experience of being a fan...and im ngl sometimes i think yk i love joost but maybe im in too deep#bc it messes with my mental and emotional well-being#which is SO FUCKING STUPID I KNOW bc its not that deep like. im just here to enjoy the man and his music but somehow i got too invested lol#anyway im going off on a tangent rn and im probably not even making sense ive just been having a lot of thoughts and i needed to vent#also i edited this post 500 times bc the tags kept getting messed up and theres still a typo but i aint going back to fix that#raquel speaks

I'm gonna be a little quiet on here until after I start playing Dragon Age. I don't want to be spoiled and the urge to click on posts that have DA tags blacklisted is mounting. And just like with Inquisition, I want to go in totally blind.
#[static]#I can't wait to see what my friends and mutuals think. it's always so much fun to watch folks play new games together#I've seen a few reviews. but I ultimately want to decide for myself#I've already seen people bickering about really inane stuff just to have something to be negative about#and while there are incredibly valid criticisms of EA among other things ... the stuff I'm seeing -#- is typical fandom stuff that I don't want to touch with a 10 foot pole#it's kind of funny how much people can rattle on about a game that isn't out just because they want something new to complain about#and people are 100% allowed to have their opinions and feelings on if they thought a game was good or not but the stuff im talking about is#- like being mad at folks getting invested in characters or talking about how bad they know it's going to be even though they havent played#i think i just hate when people talk with such conviction about how other people should enjoy things that it pisses me off real bad#i saw a take on my for you page about how it's wrong of people to be writing fics about things that havent happened yet#because what if they're wrong and then theyve wasted their time and are gonna be ruinously upset. instant block lol#i thankfully dont see any of this on my dash ... usually just in the dragon age tags or on the for you page which I rarely frequent#just let people enjoy something without getting wound up about it not being the right way. it's just drama for drama's sake#but also feel free to hate it and hate it loudly! so long as you understand it's also ok for others to have a different opinion#it's just the super-online 'everyone is wrong but me' takes that leave me reeling

not to put a target on my back with that last reblog but lmao those arcane girlies….pink and the cop…the discourse around them was so funny bc they were very obviously gay to me so no question or argument there but how r we supposed to ship them when there was also perfect siscon and momdaughter and girliefights going on XD
#Im not even in the fandom so dont come at me#everyone has the right to be basic!#And before anyone comes at me for yaoi bias i acknowledge the other m/m ship there#it definitely exists…l also was just not invested#idk i just didnt connect at with the series that much overall LMAO#have fun shippers

The longer I spend in trigun fandom the more sure I am that it makes me happier than p5 fandom. Like I vaguely thought about making a discord for fans of my p5 fic but did away with the thought bc I did NOT want to deal with all the bullshit of interacting with the fandom so directly
But I've had a trigun server for 2 months now and I like it a lot actually. It's so nice! I love my server a lot!
And genuinely, trigun fandom is not without its faults. I get skeeved out so much by That entire part of the fandom, but I've generally made it manageable by blocking anyone who makes me see that shit in the tags :p. Within my pairing of choice, it's almost peaceful! Still not without fault, but most of the worst shit I generally see is bad mischaracterization. It's nothing like the worst shit I've seen with akeshu fandom.
So like. Vashwood vs akeshu. I love both pairings very much. But holy fucking SHIT vashwood fandom is so much more tolerable than akeshu fandom. Oh my Fucking god. Yeah there's some very good reason aside from general hyperfocus stuff as to why I've been playing around with trigun so much more than p5 lol
#speculation nation#i love p5 🥰 the fandom makes me want to invest in hot pokers tho#sometimes the things you love have severely awful fandoms and you just have to live with it#this isnt me saying im abandoning my p5 fics btw. i will be continuing them eventually.#but. my wish to interact with the fandom is as close to 0 as it can be#i will keep my treasured mutuals and maybe chat with Them. bc i know theyre not like THAT#more participation in the fandom is unnecessary 🥰#which is honestly wild considering how enthusiastically ive been putting out post after post for 3gun#i love doing manga analysis. if general p5 fans even look at me though im swinging#and thats... why i spent years with my blog hidden. i only opened it up again when i switched fandoms.#TURNS OUTTTTT its not actually great for u to hate so much of the fandom ur participating in. who knew.#im less stifled now and i enjoy that. thanks vw nation for being at least marginally less awful than aksh nation. Heart!

Hello may I interest you all in literally the roughest comic sketch I have ever made in my life
Yuko has very thoroughly burrowed herself into my brain so I wanted to quickly sketch my idea for her and Kiryu meeting after TEN YEARS IN THE-
#smol makes art#Yuko Lives AU#yuko nishikiyama#kiryu kazuma#im SORRY Kiryu looks so BAD i dont ever draw him and i dont know HOW to draw these characters hkhhjbkbkj yall see my vision tho right?#this happened purely because i like the idea of Yuko ALSO hitting us with a 'ten years in the joint' i find it particularly amusing#i love her so much you guys and im just spinning her and Nishiki in my brain and trying to think up what they got up to for those ten years#this is fun i dont usually get invested in fandoms and much less AUs!!! im fuckin writing for this thing!!!#if the writers arent gonna give her character then i'll do it my damn self hjkgvgkvh#(also idk if u can tell but i like the idea of her and Nishiki looking VERY similar which is an extra like 'bro how tf dont u recognise me?'#ya get me? but tbh i relate to Kiryu if u change ur haircut im not gonna know who u are even without 10 years in prison hbvhjbbkbhj)#anyway yeah. sorry he looks particularly bad but hey i think the composition's decent? maybe i'll make this properly. someday#better yet someone else do it ivhigkvjgvkhgvgyk

been seeing so much unnecessary bi mike slander on my dash recently. sometimes selfcare is blocking 15 people and going into the bi mike tag for an hour <3
#while we're at it im also sick of those condescending 'bi mike is valid too even if its incorrect <3' posts#istg sometimes people in this fandom forget that literally nothing is confirmed and everything is up to personal interpretation#why do some gay mike truthers get so pressed about the possibility mike could be bi huh#ive never seen the same level of aggression from any bi mike truthers about gay mike hcs . ive only seen it from gay mike truthers#obv a lot of gay mikers are great and chill and know how to be normal but there are some people out there who seem to be basing their#entire byler experience on being as biphobic as possible lmao#in the most smug condescending way!! its so annoying!! ive seen people genuinely claim gay mike is Confirmed Canon#and bi mike is just a silly little incorrect hc for people who arent as invested and arent watching the show correctly#ive NEVER had this much trouble w biphobia in fandom before. in all my 12 years of being in fandom#and sorry but im sick of pretending its not happening. anyone who is rolling their eyes at this or thinks im being melodramatic:#its not even about mikes sexuality its about how the discourse is really revealing some peoples true colours wrt general biphobia#idc if mike is gay but i DO care if you have a problem with other people hcing an unconfirmed chara as bi#anyone who doesnt think theres any biphobia in byler fandom needs to unfollow me actually.#ive seen too many horrendously awful takes and blatant misunderstandings of the concept of bisexuality#for people to say its not happening. bc it is .#anyway didnt mean for this to turn into a vent post but ive been feeling this for a while#might delete this later and write a proper vent post thats more coherent at some point but for now im too tired for that#so have incoherent venting ig#me.txt
