#<- frustrated exaggeration bordering on lie. i'm not against longform-ness in and of itself#i just feel like a lot of it involves a LOT of wasted time#high quality overarching plot being dragged down by shallow cliché episodic plots#also have i mentioned i fucking hate tolkien-derivative fantasy stereotypes lately. because i really do#shut up about elves. shut up about dwarves. stop endorsing crowdsourced fantasy racism. do your own fucking worldbuilding#<- also exaggeration#you can have elves i guess#it's just that it feels so mean-spirited and misanthropic most of the time???#like. welcome to my fantasy world. these are trolls. they're stupid. these are dwarves. they're ugly. these are elves. they're gay (derogat#like???#would it kill you to treat everyone you're claiming is a person like a person#they don't need to be full three-dimensional main characters but could they at least not be caricatures#it's just not pleasant to read about. it's cruel. it leaves you feeling grimy#~oooh fantasy is the genre of WONDER and BEAUTY- then why does it feel like the author hates everyone in it???
