This Week (x2) in Tomarrymort (25 October – 7 November 2024)

Hello again! We have two multi-chaptered fics finishing this week, highlighted below, as well as a bunch of delicious one-shots and chapter updates as always.

Completed Fic:

Sits the wind in that quarter by @mosiva (M, 61k, complete) “After something of a long absence, Lord Riddle, the Earl of Gaunt, had returned to London.” This is a really cool Regency and Omegaverse AU (how cool is that to see that combined??) that features a lot of courting, gossip and intrigue, social climbing, and Alpha Tom Riddle along with Beta Harry Potter. Broken Tomarrymort Telephone: Collected Stories by @exquisite-tomarrymort-telephone (E, 109k, complete) A Tomarrymort version of the Broken Telephone game — passing a whispered word or phrase around a circle, with it often evolving into something quite different as it goes from person to person. “In our version, the starting person received a secret prompt and wrote a fic based on it. They then created a prompt for the next person by summing up what they had written in a single sentence -- with the caveat that their prompt couldn't use the same words as the prompt they were given. This continued through twenty-six (26!) different authors and artists, each adding their own flair and creativity to the exercise. Which brings us to now! We're wrapping up the creation part, so it's time to start sharing it with the world. We hope you enjoy what we've created -- we certainly enjoyed making it.”

In addition, a recap of the author notes from last week. (Please feel free to add some extra context to your fic update in the reblog, such as a little bit about the chapter(s) updated, and I’ll throw it in the update for next week!)

every step i choose to take begins to set the world aflame by @boyneptunee (NR, 4k, WIP) “Tom Riddle wants to become immortal. He will do whatever it takes to achieve it. It gets him in the most interesting situations. (A Phoenix saves his life. The Phoenix is not a Phoenix.)” These Fragments We've Shored by @rowena-rain (M, 31k, WIP) “You call me here because you crave atonement, and only I can give you that. After all, I am the only other who knows what it means to tear one’s soul. Or, as one very astute commenter put it, "Enter Voldemort, the World's Worst Therapist!" (Sorry in advance - Voldemort basically wrote this chapter lol)” Touch of Death by @moontearpensfic (E, 6k, WIP) “An oviposition AU, where Eldritch Harry/Death gives Tom his eggs, which will protect Tom from, well, death. In chapter two, the eggs hatch.” Time Stumbler by @wintumnly (T, 96k, WIP) “One part of my slowburn Harry-raises-Tom series. It ends in Tomarry, but everything building up to that point is unhinged humor, not-good-at-feelings fluff, and angsty plot surrounding Harry and Tom's chaotic and ever growing affections for one another. Update 23 explores Unconditional Love, and there will be familial love, friendship love, flirtatious love, obsessive love and others in future parts.”

So I finally caught some sleep (I woke up at 4 am, 20 minutes after the announcement, and slept a bit more after my last post announcing his passing).

First of all, this is going to be my panel: "See ya later guys, when you die we'll meet again!"

The hematoma that's mentioned in the statement announced in his passing implies a head injury (so perhaps he fell, perhaps something fell on his head, and the internal wound may have not be noticed)

The last artwork he did that was published was this new Sandland one to celebrate the upcoming series. It was revealed on March 4th, so after his passing. We don't know if it's the last artwork he did (he may have drawn this earlier and it was revealed later, who knows.

I'd also like to share some other statements, in no particular order:

Toyotaro's:

Masako Nozawa (Goku's VA) statement:

「コメントできる状況にございません」 -> "I am not in a position to comment."

(aka she was too shaken)

Nozawa update:

「信じたくない。考えたくないという気持ちで頭の中が空っぽです。それでも、お会いするたびに鳥山先生がおっしゃってくださった『悟空をお願いしますね』というお言葉を思い出すと、『私の命が尽きるまで悟空のそばにいよう』と気持ちを保つことが出来ます。先生、空から私たちを見守っていてください。どうか安らかな旅立ちでありますように。」 I don't want to believe. My mind is empty because I don't want to think about it. Still, every time we met, Toriyama-sensei said to me, "I'll take care of Goku for you, won't I?" When I remember your words, 'I will stay by Goku's side until my life is over,' I can keep my mind on it. Sensei, please watch over us from the sky. May you have a peaceful departure.

(Mayumi Tanaka, the voice of Krillin who was requested by Tori super early on will probably say something at some point too).

Oda (One Piece author) statement:

It is too early. The hole is too big. Sadness washes over me when I think that I will never see him again. I have admired him so much since I was a child, so I remember the day he called me by name for the first time. On the way home from the day you used the word "friend" for me and Kishimoto, I remember being overjoyed with Kishimoto. I also remember the last conversation we had. I was one of those who took the baton from the days when reading manga made you a fool, and he also created an era when both adults and children could enjoy reading manga. He showed us the dream that manga can go worldwide. It was like watching a hero going forward. For not only mangakas but also creators in various industries, the excitement and emotion of the time of Dragon Ball serialization must have taken root in their childhood. His existence is like a big tree. For the manga artists of our generation who stood on the same stage, Toriyama's works became more and more important to me as I got closer to the same stage. I even felt being scary. But I am just happy to see the aloof man himself again. Because we love him on a blood level. With respect and gratitude for the creative world he has left behind. I pray for his soulful rest in peace. May heaven be the joyous world he envisioned.

And Kishimoto's statement (the autho of Naruto)

To be honest, I don’t know what to write or how to write it. But right now, I want to tell Mr. Toriyama the things I always wanted to ask him and my feelings. I grew up with Mr. Toriyama’s manga, Dr. Slump in elementary school and Dragon Ball in high school. It was natural for me to have Mr. Toriyama’s manga next to me as a part of my life. Even when I was feeling down, the weekly Dragon Ball always made me forget about it. It was a salvation for me, a country boy with nothing to do. That’s how much I enjoyed Dragon Ball! When I was a college student, Dragon Ball, which had been a part of my life for so long, suddenly ended. I was overwhelmed by a tremendous sense of loss and didn’t know what to look forward to. But at the same time, it was an opportunity for me to realize from the bottom of my heart the greatness of Mr. Toriyama, who created Dragon Ball. I want to create a work like Mr. Toriyama’s! I want to be like Mr. Toriyama! As I chased after Mr. Toriyama, the sense of loss gradually disappeared. Because it was fun to create manga. By chasing after Mr. Toriyama, I was able to find new joy. Mr. Toriyama was always my compass. He was my inspiration. I may be bothering Mr. Toriyama, but I am grateful to him without permission. To me, he was a savior and a god of manga. When I first met him, I was so nervous that I couldn’t say a word. But as I met him more and more at the Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize jury meeting, I was able to talk to him. I will never forget the time when I talked to him about how much fun Dragon Ball was, like a child with Oda-san, as Dragon Ball children, and how he smiled a little shyly. I just received the news of Mr. Toriyama’s death. I am overwhelmed by a tremendous sense of loss, even greater than when Dragon Ball ended… I don’t know how to deal with this hole in my heart yet. I can’t read my favorite Dragon Ball right now. I don’t even feel like I’m writing this text properly to Mr. Toriyama. Everyone in the world was still looking forward to Mr. Toriyama’s work. If one Dragon Ball wish really comes true… I’m sorry… It may be selfish, but I’m sad, Mr. Toriyama. Thank you, Mr. Akira Toriyama, for 45 years of wonderful work. And thank you very much for your hard work. To the bereaved family, I pray that you will find peace and comfort in the midst of your grief. I pray for the peaceful repose of the soul of Mr. Akira Toriyama.

And finally one of Toriyama's close friends Masakazu Katsura (Video Girl AI author) also had this to say:

I feel drained and unmotivated. I don’t want to write a comment like this. But I’ll write something. Once I start writing, I’ll have so much to say that it will probably turn into a long text, but I’ll try to keep it as short as possible. I apologize for the rambling, as my thoughts are still not in order. Looking back, all I have are fond memories of the times we spent together – whether it was visiting your house, having you stay over at mine, or going out on trips. Every time we talked on the phone, we would laugh so hard that we would get tired. You were a funny person. You were perverted, cute, sharp-tongued, and humble. We collaborated on some manga projects, which were also a lot of fun. But 99% of the time, we never talked about manga. As a manga artist, the gap between the way we saw things and our level of skill was too great, and I never really felt your greatness. I know it now. But when I was with you, I never felt it at all. That’s just the kind of person you were. That’s why I still can’t think of you as anything other than a friend, even though you were a great manga artist. Last summer, before I had surgery, you heard about it somewhere and sent me an email. It was really rare for you to send an email, and it was so full of concern for my health. We’ve been friends for 40 years, but that might have been the first time I felt such kindness from you. I thought it was going to snow. You know, you usually only talk about jokes or nonsense. What the hell, you shouldn’t be worried about other people, right? I called you a little before that, and I was feeling sick all over, so I said, “I’ll probably go first, so have a farewell party for me, Toriyama! And make sure you give a speech, because it’ll make me look good!” But you didn’t keep your promise. I really regret not calling you after you emailed me. I just can’t believe that I can’t talk to you on the phone for hours anymore. There are so many things I want to talk to you about. There are so many things I want to say. Even if you don’t care about what I have to say, you can just zone out like you always do. I just want to talk to you again. The last thing you said to me was “OK” in response to my email asking you to contact me again. That’s just not good enough. I’m so sad.

And the Dragon Quest LEGEND, Yuji Horii, too...

I am still filled with disbelief at the sudden news of Mr. Toriyama’s passing. I have known Mr. Toriyama since I was a writer for Weekly Shonen Jump. At the recommendation of my editor, Torishima-san, I decided to ask him to draw the illustrations for the game Dragon Quest when we were launching it. For over 37 years since then, he has drawn countless charming characters, including character designs and monster designs. The history of Dragon Quest is one that has been intertwined with Mr. Toriyama’s character designs. Mr. Toriyama and the late Mr. Sugiyama were longtime collaborators on Dragon Quest. I can’t believe they’re gone… I can’t find the words to express my sorrow. This is truly, truly a tragedy.

Torishima, his "evil editor" (the one the Mashirito from Dr Slump is inspired by), also put out a statement:

"The last time we worked together was on the book we published last year, 'Dr. Mashirito's Strongest Manga Technique.' In that book, 'Torishima and Toriyama Back Then' was the last manga we made together. 45 years, thank you very much. Mr. Toriyama, you were the best manga artist I have ever known."

(this is what he's talking about)

Jackie Chan statement:

"Akira Toriyama-sensei, thank you for creating so many classics, they will always be with the world, farewell 🙏"

French president Emmanuel Macron:

the tweet reads "To Akira Toriyama and his millions of fans who grew up with him",

The authograph says "for Ma-ku-ro-n president" (to President Macron); the hand-drawn parts are the little Goku and the dragon balls surrounding him, alongside the autograph. It was drawn over a printed paper (as per custom when getting an autograph)

The date indicates it was given to him during the Olympic Games in Tokyo.

Yabuki Kentaro (To Love Ru's author) (link to the tweet)

Takao Koyama (screen writer for 90% of the episodes and the movies) says Toriyama was sick for over a year at this point. He himself is pretty badly sick as well.

Hiroki Takahashi (Makafushigi Adventure, first DB opening)

Hironobu Kageyama (Chala Head Chala and everything else)

"Singing 'CHA-LA HEAD-CHA-LA!' is the biggest medal in my life! The loss of the sun is too much to bear But the power of Toriyama-sensei's works Will continue to be a strong light And may it illuminate people all over the world. May you rest in peace."

(some more of the Editorial department of Jump can be found here, with a good browser extension you should be able to get the gist of it)

Feel free to reblog with your favorite manga panels, interviews, trivias, and let's pay a homage to his life and work, alright??

About the people feeding fanfictions to AI: It's so fucking sad and maddening that people will do anything BUT leaving a comment. I'm so done with writing fanfiction.

Hey Anon!

I know it can be super frustrating when we don't receive the feedback that we want. I think every creator is guilty of feeling that way, because we WANT to have others share in our joy of the things we make, and when they don't, it just feels kinda....silly? I guess?

We live in the "tiktok" era, as I would dub it, where everything is so fast-paced and fandoms live one second and die another, content needs to be NOW or never, but honestly, we as fanfic writers are not 'CONTENT CREATORS'. We are fan artists, in some fashion. Whether you write, draw, sing, etc, for the joy of contributing to the fandom, and I think "fandom" has lost its way entirely these days.

Fandom is a community - and we need to support one another for the things we make, to enjoy the things we love. If we stop commenting, sharing, etc, then the fandom ultimately dies. Yes, it's discouraging to not receive feedback on something you've worked hard on, and I think we all need to work on getting back to the true values of fandom.

And with this AI stupidity? What's so fascinating about feeding words to a computer? You're losing out on the heart and soul of a story or creation. Computers don't have feelings, but we fanworks creators do, and there is a distinct difference between AI generated works and those done by real people.

My advice: keep writing. While we may not get the feedback we desire, your story will become someone's favorite. You will become the author someone gravitates towards and can't wait to see what you post next. I know it gets discouraging, I feel that way more than I like to admit, but then I get (1) comment, or one nice tag about how amazing xyz was, and I think in the end, so long as we can SEE that our joy is spreading, isn't that what it's all about? (Let's completely ignore the "write for yourself first" rule because sometimes that just gets too repetitive).

Keep creating, my friend, it's never worthless, or pointless, and people DO care, I promise. Some people just have a more quiet way of showing it.

That being said: please support your fellow creators. Share their works if you like it, drop even a little emoji comment on it to show your support. Every little bit counts, and engagement with creators is at, what I feel, an all-time low. This needs to be fixed, or creations done by real people are going to go away.

#raz answers #anon asks #i think i went on a rant here kind of #but yeah the point is #SUPPORT YOUR FELLOW FANWORKS CREATORS #and please please please keep creating!!#razzy rants #anti ai #writers of ao3 #writers of tumblr #fanfiction

Handers Gift Exchange 2024 Round-up!

This year's Handers Gift Exchange has officially come to a close!

We'd like to give a huge thank you and shoutout to all 20 of our participants this year. Congratulations to you all, for doing so well creating beautiful works for your giftees.

On behalf of the mods ( @dismalzelenka, @un-shit-yourself, @storybookhawke, and @hollyand-writes ), thank you to everyone who remains in the Handers fandom—in addition to authors and artists, it also includes readers, commenters, serial kudosers, and avid rebloggers! We appreciate all the love, enthusiasm, support, and cheerleading everyone did throughout this event. Everyone involved keeps the love of the ship alive and well even thirteen years after the game came out.

If you participated in this event, we ask that you please leave a comment on the gift you received, at least three lines in length! Participation goes both ways, so please give some praise and adoration to the person who devoted their time and energy to create a gift for you.

You can view the blog's tag for this event here, and the AO3 collection here, but below is a compiled list of all the amazing gifts shared over the course of this exchange. Please mind the tags and ratings as you go through them!

Invitations by replicatortrash for ghostbunny M!Handers | Explicit |

Summary: Garrett Hawke has been trying to open his home to Anders for weeks and it's been slow going. Is he keeping distance because of something from his past, or because Garrett is a vampire... or is there something else going on Garrett hasn't considered?

Mélange by dismalzelenka for Sulkyvalkyrie F!Handers | Explicit |

Summary: “I want Justice involved.” It was a marvel, Anders thought, how four words flipped his entire world on its head. “You what?” Hawke tilted her head, catlike curiosity peppered across her face. “Justice,” she repeated. “I want him involved.” In which Hawke confesses some secrets, and Anders and Justice both learn there is far more to Hawke than meets the eye.

The Short Straw by autumninfall for DemonicPersephone F!Handers | Mature |

Summary: A quick way to earn some coin while fleeing the Templars of Kirkwall. A dragon up in the mountains. Surely nothing will go wrong, right?

at the end of the world by PhantomsLost for barbex F!Handers | Teen |

Summary: “Hawke, no.” She shook her head and took a step back, both hands still gripping her staff tight. “You and I both know we don’t have a better option.” Tipping her head slightly in the direction of the looming Nightmare, she added, “Go. I’ve got this.”

Broken, yet Remade by Actually_An_Insane_Fangirl for PhantomsLost F!Handers | Teen |

Summary: Hawke may be broken, but that doesn't mean she cannot be remade with the gentle hands of a healer.

Lunacy by Sulkyvalkyrie for GhostGarrison M!Handers | Explicit |

Summary: Hawke wanted to wait another night, but Anders can't stop worrying about him...

Looking the Part by acesdesire M!Handers | Teen |

Summary: While visiting Chateau Haine, Hawke finds himself enjoying the party more than expected, especially with Anders looking so dashing in his formal wear. Infiltration can wait (even if Tallis might have other plans). He would much rather indulge in this rare and beautiful moment.

Some Guys Have All the Luck by barbex for dismalzelenka M!Handers | Explicit |

Summary: Watching Anders fight, powerful, controlled, turns Hawke on like nothing else. That's a man he wants to get on his knees for. And more.

Hunting by DemonicPersephone for Actually_An_Insane_Fangirl F!Handers | Explicit |

Summary: Nothing like a near death experience to make romance bloom <3

Chasing the Light by leonidskies for SalsedinePicta M!Handers | Teen |

Summary: Anders is having a bad day. Hawke, forever down bad, refuses to let it go.

Hurt Less by ghostbunny for PorlPoint M!Handers | Mature |

Summary: After coming close to killing the mage girl, Ella, Anders is in a bad way, consumed by guilt and shame and beginning to spiral. Hawke attempts to help him through it, while dealing with some of his own insecurities.

The One That Didn't Get Away by FactoryKat for winebearcat M!Handers | G |

Summary: Of all the things that could have happened to newcomer Garrett Hawke after moving to Kirkwall, picking up a date outside of a walk-in clinic wasn't exactly on his predictions list.

Healing the Healer by PorlPoint M!Handers | Teen |

Summary: Anders is seriously injured and out of mana, with only Hawke there to heal him before it's too late.

Rose Cottage by winebearcat for leonidskies M!Handers | Mature |

Summary: Anders reaches his 50th Name Day. He never expected to make it past 30, let alone have his happy ending.

ART: storybookhawke's piece for autumninfall M!Handers | G |

ART: notomys-mordax-blog's piece for ocean-in-my-rebel-soul M!Handers | G |

ART: salsedinepicta's piece for notomys-mordax-blog M!Handers | G |

ART: kittyopera's piece for acesdesire M!Handers | G |

ART: gevascloset's piece for factorykat M!Handers | G |

ART: moosu's piece for kittyoperas M!Handers | G |

Round-Up Part Three!

As of this very posting, did you know that the Codywan Fandom is now 69 first kisses richer than they were at the start of the month? It’s true! Sixty-Nine new first kisses from newbies and veterans of fandom. Your CWFKB mods been so impressed with everyone’s different takes on the prompts, but we would like to shout out everyone who’s filled the “dip kiss” prompt with Cody getting to be the one dipped– we think these fills very well may have quadrupled the number of “Cody is the one being dipped” works in fandom.

If you haven’t posted yet or if you signed up for a card and haven’t been able to participate the way that you’d hoped, please accept our “don’t worry about it!” kiss on your forehead. While the event itself is time-limited for the sake of counting up bingos and blackouts, we’d love to see your fills whenever you have the time and inspiration to share them– just tag the blog and we’ll share your first kiss whenever it’s ready– you can’t hurry love, after all!

And finally, please remember that comments and reblogs feed hungry authors and artists– we’re all already in love with codywan and smooshing their faces together to KISS, so please don’t feel shy about telling your fellow first kissers how much you love them, too, for helping to bring more codywan love into galaxies near and far, far away. You can start with a reblog of this post to share all the fills for the week, and when you get a chance, drop your co-creators a smooch-moji, a keysmash, or an eloquent tag essay in appreciation.

All our amazing fills are below the cut:

Art

@dontbelasagnax (on AO3) posted art for a neck kiss.

@coline7373 (on AO3) gave us two art pieces this week– an absentminded kiss and a chaste kiss.

Fics

@anclastic-azurite (Saerus2665 on AO3) posted their first fill of the event with a sticky kiss and followed it up with a magical kiss.

@babygirlbridger (lothcatthree on AO3) gave us a fill for morning breath kiss.

@dontbelasagnax (on AO3) also wrote a fic fill for desperate kiss.

@foreverchangingfandomsao3 (on AO3) is really making a bid for a blackout, with fills for: highly anticipated kiss, a dip kiss, an upside down kiss, a hand kiss, a kiss with tongue, an anticlimactic kiss, a BINGO with a chaste kiss.

@inkformyblood (Quicksilverfox3 on AO3) gave us fills for true love’s kiss, and a morning breath kiss.

@insertmeaningfulusername (InsertSthMeaningful on AO3) gave us a fill for a kiss on the cheek.

@itsgoldleaf (goldleaf1066 on AO3) posted a fill for hand kiss.

@lttrsfrmlnrrgby (thosenearandfarwars on AO3) had fills for gross kiss and true love’s kiss.

@meebles (firelord_zutara on AO3) had a fill for an anticlimactic kiss.

@michaelaariadne (on AO3) had a fill for a swapped prompt, using the shotgun kiss fill.

@phoneycam (camochofas2u2 on AO3) posted their very first fic on AO3 (CONGRATULATIONS!!!) with a fill for painful kiss and then filled another square for desperate kiss.

@podcasts-8-my-heart (ShadowNekoinaTardis on AO3) posted a fill for a neck kiss.

@random-letters-i-just-thought-of (on AO3) posted a fill for kiss it better.

@wrennette (on AO3) was the first BINGO of the entire event with a fill for highly-anticipated kiss.

Thanks to everyone who posted this week, and thanks to everyone who's read, commented, kudos-ed, liked, and reblogged our first kissers' fills. If we missed a fill, missed a bingo count, or forgot your fill here, please inbox us here and we'll take a look.

Portrait: II

Masterpost

PREV | NEXT

Pairing: Benedict Bridgerton x fem!reader

Summary: The second portrait session and our pair are getting closer.

Warnings (for this chapter): none really... a couple of suggestive thoughts.

Word Count: 1.7k

Authors Note: Thanks to @eleanor-bradstreet for her ideas around the little childhood memory in this chapter. Enjoy! <3

Benedict returns the following morning, looking much less put together. He wears the same outfit as the previous day, except his jacket is dishevelled, and his trousers are creased as if he had slept in them. It appears as if his hair has been combed with fingers, and there is a shadow of stubble on his jaw. He smells of cigars and whiskey even from a few feet away.

If you were a betting person, you would wager that he had overindulged the previous evening. Be it drugs, alcohol and perhaps even sins of the flesh… you steer your wayward mind from that possibility, knowing enough from overheard idle housemaid’s gossip, a fluttering low in your belly at the very idea of this man naked and thrusting.

“You look a little tired, Mr Bridgerton,” you comment gently after a few minutes of him frowning at his easel as if perplexed by his own art supplies.

“You are most observant,” the gravelly sound makes your body tingle, and he clears his throat before speaking more. “My brother had his stag party last night, and I fear we may have overindulged,” he adds, somewhat sheepish.

“We could have postponed…,” you offer with a slight shrug.

“NO!” the forcefulness with which he says it makes you flinch slightly. “I did not mean to startle you, miss,” he continues softer, “what I mean is I am a man of integrity. If I make a commitment to do something, I honour it. I promised I would be here this morning. So I am,” he meets your eye. “I would never want to disappoint you, miss.”

Something in the way he says it has your heart rate spiking again, even as outwardly you merely nod slightly. “Could I offer you some coffee then, perhaps?”

“Oh god, yes, please,” he sounds so grateful for such a simple gesture you can't help but smile.

You ring a bell to summon your family butler, who slides into the room and looks at you expectantly.

“Mr Reeves, please could we have some coffee?”

“Certainly.” his eyes dart pointedly to Benedict. “Should you be alone for your portrait, miss? Perhaps you would like me to remain after mid-morning refreshments are served?” he suggested pointedly, the avuncular concern for your welfare and honour always there.

“No need,” you assure quickly. “My parents and indeed my intended are aware of Mr Bridgerton’s presence. And have deemed it acceptable to honour his request that other people not be in the room when he paints—it distracts from his artistic process.”

You feel Benedict's eyes on you. He made no such stipulation; this is purely something of your own manufacture you have just conjured. But he says nothing; there is just the slightest hint of a bemused quirk in the corner of his mouth.

“My artistic process?” he murmurs after your butler has departed.

Instantly you feel something in the air between you - playful, light, a shared understanding that is so very beguiling.

“I thought all artists to be temperamental sorts,” you throw out, quirking an eyebrow. “If I am mistaken in my assumption, I will let Mr Reeves remain if that is your preference.”

He smirks as he glances up over the top of his canvas. “There is no need. The lack of interruption shall likely aid my process indeed.”

“As I suspected, Mr Bridgerton,” enthralled by his reaction as you attempt a cool sideways glance while raising your chin to a more upward turn, a triumphant little smile twitching your lip.

“You are quite the creature,” he mutters sotto voce, and you pretend not to hear it as staff bustle into the room with coffee and biscuits.

Once Benedict has coffee, he seems to perk up immeasurably and begins painting earnestly. You settle into your pose as you hear delicate brushstrokes on canvas.

“Tell me your favourite childhood memory,” his voice startling you from the almost hypnotic calm you have slipped into.

“Why?” your brow knits.

“Just indulge me”, he responds, and it's his turn to quirk an eyebrow.

You twist your mouth into a slight pout as there is a staring contest for a few moments.

“It’s part of my ‘artistic process’,” he adds drolly, the air quotes he gestures with his last couple of words designed to mock you gently.

You roll your eyes and pull a deadpan face, eliciting a carefree chuckle from him. The sound makes you feel like the sun lives in your veins. You would do anything to make him make that noise again—every day. Before you know it, you are doing as he requests.

“When I was seven years old, I read The Frog Prince,” you begin, a nostalgic smile claiming your face. “I was convinced that if I just kissed the most handsome frog from the pond in our country house, maybe it would turn into my own handsome prince….”

Benedict laughs. “And as you are still an unmarried woman, for now at least, I assume that pursuit was unsuccessful?” he lobbies dryly.

“Indeed,” you giggle, dismissing thoughts of your upcoming nuptials, not wanting to taint this moment of levity. “But I had invested a lot of time in frog catching, and it seemed a wasted opportunity to just let it on its merry way back to the pond.”

“Oh god, what did you do?”

“I was in the kitchen with our cook and saw the bright silver serving dishes, and well…” you shrug with an impish grin. “So I snuck it back into the house with Mr Frog under the silver cloche with the intention of leaving it in my brother’s bed later.….”

“A classic jape,” he acknowledges.

“...Indeed, but mother called me, and I clean forgot I left it there. Then fifteen minutes later, we are all gathered at the dinner table and well….”

“No!” he guffaws.

“The butler unveils dinner of roast lamb and… very live, very petrified frog! My brothers and I found it hilarious. My father was mad; my mother was horrified and had to go lie down.” You are both pealing with laughter at the end of your tale. As your giggles die out, you can't help the next question. “So tell me, how is knowing that story a part of your process?”

“Nothing is more alive in someone's expression when they talk of their favourite memory. I try to capture that look, that gleam in the eye, when I’m painting their face,” he explains as his words make your insides feel somehow melted.

“But you did not appear to be painting,” your voice almost husky.

“I committed the look on your face to memory as you spoke,” he replies softly. “It was quite the most captivating thing,” he adds, looking down as if abashed to admit it.

Your breath catches, and your hands itch to touch him. Tell him you think that he is quite the most captivating thing you have ever seen. The most beautiful, in fact. But you do not. You merely sit there mildly dumbstruck by the compliment he paid you, shifting slightly in your seat, breaking your pose, something in your body not knowing how to process his words or your reaction to them.

“You seem uncomfortable,” he observes carefully. “Should we take a short break?”

“NO!” you respond more forcefully than intended. “Sorry, I just….”

“You do not need to apologise or explain anything to me, miss; I am here to provide a service to you. Not the other way around,” he points out mildly.

“I am fine. And are you quite sure of that, Mr Bridgerton? Is it not the artist's prerogative to be exacting and demanding of his subjects as he toils over his work?” you ask airily.

“Ha! I am somewhat more even in temperament than the archetype of the tortured artist. Perhaps my talent is not of sufficient calibre,” he states modestly with a self-deprecating, wry tone. You can tell there is something in him that doubts his skill and a burning need to reassure rushes out of you.

“Your calibre seems entirely equivalent to genius from the paintings I have seen. Why else would I insist on commissioning you?”

“You… insisted on me? I thought myself your father's choice,” he appears surprised.

“My father would not know good art if it jumped up and bit his behind,” you jest.

Benedict laughs heartily, and once again, you feel alive, with sunlight in your being. It makes you confessional, wanting him to know the truth of how you feel.

“I, however, found your artwork very….” you cannot think of a better word than the one lodged on your tongue, so you just let it fly “...arousing. As in, it awakened my senses. I felt alive in the scenes you painted as if standing there, not just seeing but feeling the elements, smelling the land, and hearing the trees rustle. So immediate. So when an artist was needed, you were the only name I could think of. Call me selfish, but if anyone must paint my portrait, quite simply, it has to be you, Mr Bridgerton, my favourite artist.”

You haven't dared to look at him the whole time you spoke, but as you do now, you see an expression that turns your legs to jelly even though you sit. It's admiration, surprise, and even you can recognise it, blatant desire. A stare so intense you feel stripped by it. His chest heaving a little under his waistcoat, each tiny button under rhythmic strain.

“No one has ever talked of my art like that,” he confides.

“They should. And one day, I believe they will.” Your passion for his work, and him, the man, boiling over into a hushed but urgent tone. “And I will be a lucky lady to know my portrait was painted by none other than a British master. It will be my most prized possession.”

You are not entirely sure what swept you into such a passionate diatribe, but you know no other man on this earth can, or likely ever will, make you feel the way he does. And you continue to stare at each other, both breathing entirely too laboured, considering no physical movement has occurred. You almost jump out of your skin when the clock in the corner strikes the hour with a resounding chime.

“Our time is up, miss,” his voice sounding muted and reluctant.

“More’s the pity,” you whisper so faintly he cannot hear you, your eyes finally dropping to the floor as the spell is broken.

Summary: This close up, Draco can see the differences that have occurred over the years. Harry's hair is longer, although it's as unruly as ever; his forearms are well-muscled and decorated with ink; and there are small lines by his eyes that look like they would crinkle if he were smiling. Which, at this moment, he most definitely is not. He looks like he's worn the same clothes for three days and just rolled out of bed, yet Harry's so unfairly gorgeous it makes Draco's heart ache. "What do you want, Draco?" Harry asks, his voice resigned. The question snaps Draco out of his reverie. "A divorce," he proclaims as he opens his bag.

see the steeple (trace to the spire)

Prompt: "God's own country", 2017, Francis Lee Author: Olena Word Count: 33,857 words Rating: Explicit Warnings: None

Summary: "Thirty, huh?" Pansy asked. “My cousin told me that Japan there’s this urban legend called ‘cherry magic’. It’s basically that if you turn thirty without, you know, popping your cherry, you get magical powers.” “Pans, I don’t know how to put this to you, but we already have magical powers,” Draco said. Pansy laughed. “No, you dolt. New ones. Apparently the legend goes that you become a mind reader.” Draco shivered. “Sounds awful.” “Anyway, it won’t happen to you, will it?” she asked. Draco shifted a little uncomfortably. “Of course it won’t,” he said. “Because you just said it’s an urban legend.” “I meant, it won’t happen to you because you’re not a virgin.” Draco laughed.

The writing – because it’s writing, he realises, when he brings the glass closer – is barely there, blink and you'd miss it. But he would never miss it: the writing is in his dreams, under his fingernails, in his blood. It’s runes. OR The Malfoy-Black Foundation is celebrating its 25th anniversary. But why does the whole staff consist of Hogwarts graduates? And why does Chef Evans seem familiar? Harry Potter meets The Menu (2022)

They were going to be together until they were old and grey. None of their friends could imagine one without the other. But, on Valentine's Day, 2010, Harry died. Draco was left devastated.

Summary: Harry and his group of friends formulate a rather ambitious plan to re-acquire a rare diamond from the clutches of an old enemy—Theo Nott. Along the way, he's hoping to catch the attention of his ex—Draco Malfoy—who is now dating Theo. “What have you heard?” Harry half-whispered. “Rumours are going around that it’s the Starlight Diamond.” The guest half-whispered in reply, excitement practically vibrating out of the man’s pores. “Starlight Diamond?” He feigned ignorance, flicking his glance between the guest and Ginny. “Oh, right, I’m so sorry Mr. Potter. I often forget you didn’t grow up in our world.” Harry twitched, fist clenched. In another life, he probably would have decked the guy for being a prick, but that was the kind of person this sort of event attracted. The old money and the nouveau riche, both looking to flaunt their means and gossip.

Notes: “Life sucks, and then you die… And then it still sucks.” – Georgia Lass, Dead Like Me. The biggest thank you to our fabulous Mods for LCDrarry 2023! This community has been an absolute joy to be a part of and I couldn’t recommend it enough to others. And to my beta (R) who (once again) aided my whale call for assistance in the very final stages of submission. This fic would be a mess without you. You're the absolute best. x

Summary: Everyone dies. That’s just the way it is. And then there are the unfortunate few who get promoted.

***

Double Trouble

Thrown back into a world he thought he’d left behind, Draco must wrestle with his Death Eater past as well as his inconvenient — and forbidden — feelings for an annoyingly level-headed Harry Potter. Will he manage to come out unscathed like he has most of his life, or will it all come crashing down?

***

An Angel, A Demon, and The End of The World

Prompt: “Good Omens”, 2019, TV Series Author: DrWhoIsGinnyHolmes Word Count: 3,844 words Rating: Teen and up Audiences Warnings: Religious imagery and references

Summary: Armageddon has come to Earth and enemies Demon Harry and Angel Draco are forced to come together to figure out how to halt it. They had become rather fond of Earth in all their years upon it, and don't wish it a tragic end. Plus, oh dear, the Antichrist has gone missing.

***

Champions of Karlstad

Prompt: "Borg v McEnroe", 2017, Janus Metz Author: Dexiha Word Count: 18,310 words Rating: Explicit Warnings: mention of blood, injuries and ice hockey-typcial in-game violence

Summary: Draco signs a contract with Färjestad BK, one of the top ice hockey clubs in Sweden. Draco's long-time rival, Harry Potter, refuses to play with Draco, but still chooses to follow him to Sweden, signing with another Swedish club. Is screwing with Draco's life all that Potter really cares about, or is there some other intent behind his annoying behaviour?

A Mist That Appears (For a Little Time)

Prompt: "Sweet November", 2001, Pat O'Connor Author: DodgerKedavra Word Count: 22,490 words Rating: Explicit Warnings: This is a sickfic with mild blood and sickness!

Summary: “Give me November, and I’ll teach you to be happy. There’s only one condition. You must swear on your magic that you won’t fall in love with me.” Harry’s so tired. His whole body hurts. If Malfoy can teach him how to be happy, then... “Okay.” Harry is working himself to death. Draco only has November to help him. Falling in love is strictly against the rules.

***

You've Got Owl Post

Prompt: "You've Got Mail", 1998, Nora Ephron Author: slyth_princess Word Count: 50,407 words Rating: Mature Warnings: Questionable Use of Canon

Summary: After discovering muggle romantic comedies during winter break, Pansy Parkinson and Luna Lovegood decide to launch an ambitious project called You've Got Owl Post which matches up students through an enchanted notebook so they can send letters to each other without knowing who is at the other end. It is an instant hit. Harry, without his friends knowing, is one of the first to join. And he rapidly finds a kindred soul on the other side of the pages. In real life, however, he is once again plagued by Draco Malfoy. After fighting in class, McGonagall has had enough. So, as punishment and a lesson, she assigns them the running of that years dueling club. Everyone, including Harry and Draco, assumes it will be a disaster. However, sometimes the people you think you know the best are the ones who can surprise you the most. A story of letters, bets, friendship, love, forgiveness, and discovering who you really are.

You can find all the lovely podfics and art in the 1st part of our LCDrarry 2023 Master List.

As always, reblogs here on tumblr are very much appreciated to promote all the wonderful works of LCDrarry. But of course, please also shower our creators with comments and kudos on AO3 ;D Thank you! Read you next year ;)

Marvel Rare Pairs Bingo Spring Fling Mini-Event

Hey Everyone! It's that time of year again for us to begin our Spring Fling Mini Event. For information see the posts below under the cut:

Event Rules

Please no character/ship bashing! Also, no kink shaming on other’s work! This is a place where we encourage people to feel safe in their creativity. If you don’t like something someone creates then try to follow the rule “Don’t Like, Don’t Read/Comment/Etc”. We want this to be a friendly zone for everyone to feel included so please keep that in mind. We want you to create and explore, but be sure to be mindful of your other Marvel loving fans because we want everyone to have a good time!

While we understand that everyone has their own thing that inspires them, we ask that your fills do not contain incest, underage (under 18), rape/non-con or any bestiality themes. If you have any questions about this rule, please feel free to contact us so we can clear up anything for you.

Any fan works that you have made are allowed to be in this event. This Bingo is not just limited to writing and drawing, so if you have something else that inspires you, let your mind roam free and create!

When making a fill be sure to label it accordingly. Warnings are important to readers so if you think you might need one please include it!

In this bingo event we want everyone to have fun, but for safety purposes we want this event to be for those 18+. We encourage authors and artists of all ages to keep creating, but for this event we’d like to keep it adults only. Thank you so much for respecting that and we appreciate your interest moving forward! We are operating on an honor system as we can’t check everyone’s age, so please be respectful in moving forward in signing up.

Spring Fling Bingo and Badges Welcome to the Spring Fling mini event. This event will run through the months of March, April, and May. We intend for it to be a fun, low pressure event where members will be able to use any of the prompts to replace squares on your current card if you would like to do so. Or you can simply do them as an added bonus if you're not actively participating in the bingo or just want to do something beyond your card. The choice is yours! For this event, we have cards that are exclusively NSFW and those that are SFW. You can pick either one, but know that if you pick a SFW card you can fill the prompt with a NSFW story. If you pick a NSFW card, you can also do a SFW fill (although some prompts might be a little challenging in that). It's up to you what you come up with. We want to see how creative you can be so for this event with the cards you can choose from one of the pre-made cards listed below and have fun creating. You can pick ANY of the cards below that inspire you to gain a special Spring Fling badge at the end of the event. As mentioned before you can use any of these prompts on the card you pick to replace any of your current squares if you'd like or if you simply want to do the prompts for the event itself that's okay too. Because these cards are a little different than the normal cards, to get a bingo and be eligible for a bingo/coverall badge, you have to complete the five square prompts. That's it for this one as it is a smaller card meant to be a fun little add on. Anyone who does 1 fill can get a badge of participation.

Also as an added bonus this round if you manage to use all the prompts in one story you can get a special Spring Fever badge as well for completing the bingo in one story, but to do so the story must have a minimum of 1000 words and you can still use the fills here to replace your regular bingo squares if you wish to do so. For those only taking part in this mini-event and not the bingo you can still get badges for this event!

Fills When you are making fills for the event please be sure to add share them in the ⁠⁠special-event-fills channel with others. When making posts on Tumblr be sure to @ us at @marvelrarepairbingo so we can reblog your posts there too. Fills have to be a minimum of 200 words if written and there are no restrictions on art size as we'll let artists use their discretion on it. We invite you to include your works in the Round Two AO3 collection up at mrp_bingo_2023 as well for those who would like to post their works to the event collection in place of other card squares or even as add ons since it is still part of this Round Two we have going on. Just make a note that it's for the Spring Fling Event and which card and prompts you've used. If you have any further questions about the event don't be afraid to reach out and ask us in the ⁠ask-a-mod section or to DM @BeachWitchAunTeigh or myself as we're always here to help! We hope you all have a lot of fun with this mini-event and we look forward to seeing what you come up with! Enjoy!

💞 Of Lizards, Love & Laundry 💞

🦎 now complete 🦎

Ship: Tarlos | Fandom: 911 Lone Star Author: noxsoulmate | Artist: paxdracona Read on ao3 | View art on ao3

Chapters: 7-9/9 | Word Count: 4049 | Complete Word Count: 13826 | Rating: Mature | Warnings/Tags: canon compliant, Lou II is the Houdini of Lizards, how Lou II makes his Papa love him, a story told in 7+2 parts, Carlos is so done, but TK knows how to condition his man, sex and spicy food, bribery, fluff, domestic fluff, fluff and smut, fluff and humor, Carlos loves TK, so he puts up with the reptile in their loft, until he starts to love the little monster as well

Inspired by the amazing art of @paxdracona

Created for the @911reversebang

Summary:

“TK, your lizard got out. Again.”

Lou II might just be the Houdini of lizards, an escape artist par excellence – but he’s also TK’s emotional support lizard, so how could Carlos not start to like the little monster? It certainly has nothing to do with TK’s ways of bribery or attempts at conditioning him, and more with the fact that Lou II is just… growing on him. Even if that means loads and loads of extra laundry.

OR: Carlos Reyes and the Journey of Becoming a Lizard Papa, told in 7+2 parts

🦎 Read chapters 7 to 9 on ao3 🦎

🦎 or start at the beginning 🦎

💞 and please leave lots of love on the wonderful art on ao3 💞

💞 🦎 This fic is now complete 🦎💞

Once more I have to say the biggest thanks to @paxdracona 🥰 working with you was such a joy and I hope there are more projects in our future.

And of course, all my love to my wonderful readers - thank you so much for all your love, for all the kudos and your lovely comments, as well as all the reblogs here on tumblr. I'm so thrilled you loved this fic and the amazing art 😘

Sneak peek and more art under the cut:

seven

Household chores are always a tiring thing to handle but Carlos actually likes some of them. He’s weird like that, yes, but he knows it has to do with it being mostly mindless tasks that don’t require much thinking, and still you can see the result in the end. Plus, doing them together with TK always makes it that much better. They love to share kisses whenever they’re close, they brush each other when one passes the other, just smiling, exchanging wordless communication. It’s nice, it’s domestic, and Carlos knows he won’t mind doing any chores for the rest of his life as long as he can share it with TK.

It also helps that they both have their preferred chores and switch up those neither of them likes or both of them do. Laundry, for example, is part of the last category. Before moving together, Carlos would’ve never thought TK would like doing laundry as much as he does. But they both see it as a rather meditative task, one that can be done while sitting on the couch.

And yes, Carlos still uses the couch to sort all the dry laundry, even after the little Lou II incident the other week.

Besides, he has to admit he has definitely warmed up to the little rascal. He isn’t even surprised anymore to sometimes find him outside of the terrarium. TK offered to set up a camera so they could see how the trickster does it – but Carlos brushed it off. By now, he might even be okay with letting him run around the loft sometime. He found these little cat hammocks online after watching a video where a bearded dragon used it to chill in it…

Not that he’s ready to tell TK just yet. His fiancé is excited enough as is, seeing how their wedding is only a few days away. No, he will keep that revelational new status in Lou II and his relationship for a day where TK needs another pick-me-up…

Carlos is pulled from his thoughts when TK drops down on the couch next to him, looking at him with that look. The look that tells Carlos right away that TK did something he thinks he’ll get in trouble for unless his puppy eyes will get him out of it.

“Oh no,” Carlos murmurs, staring at his fiancé. “What did you do?”

“So… remember a few weeks ago when Lou II got free while I cleaned his terrarium?”

Carlos looks past him and sees it right away, the open glass case and the cleaning supplies. All he does is sigh and look back at TK, who truly looks sheepish now.

“Remember how I promised I would tell you right away if it happened again? Well…”

✨Thoughtful Thursday✨

Hello again, you amazing individuals 💖

Happy Thursday! We’re almost to Friday again, so take a slow, deep breath: Inhale, exhale. We’ve nearly made it to the weekend. ✨

I figured I would share some thoughts, from my own philosophy:

It doesn’t take a lot of effort to be kind.

Kindness is expressed in a lot of ways. Helping a person with their groceries if they look like they’re struggling (after first asking if they need help), radiating warmth in a smile if you’re happy, which will transfer to others. Telling someone their shirt is nice, or you like their hair. Actively listening to what people say, and show genuine interest in their hobbies. These are only a few examples of kindness.

Being kind and being nice are different, despite sharing similarities. Being nice is complimenting a person’s wardrobe; Being kind is discreetly telling them that their fly is down. Being nice is listening to a person’s thoughts if they are struggling; being kind is offering empathy, support, and suggestions if they seek help. Being nice is saying, “are you okay?” to a person who looks like they need need to hear someone say “everything is going to be okay”more than anything right now; Being kind is actively listening to what they are saying, and helping where you can.

Niceness is knowing you want to help others. Kindness is knowing you need to help yourself first, in order to help others.

To me, there is no greater kindness than reading my works, or looking at my art, and expressing your support.

I don’t see our spaces as a combative competition that needs to be “won.” I want to SHARE our art spaces together. I want to uplift authors and artists alike, not tear them down. The world needs more creativity, more art. More motivated minds. More kindness.

That being said: the only thing I’ll be competitive about….is the amount of kindness I will give back for being genuinely nice to me.

Oh, you read my novels on AO3? That’s a genuinely high honor. Get ready for all your works to be kudos’d and commented on every chapter.

You PURCHASED my novels on Amazon? Get ready for me to purchase your art in your shops, and write glowing reviews of your books and artwork.

You gave me FANART of my novels??? This is the highest honor I can receive other than your comments on my works! Be prepared for me to read your stories, sketch some ideas, and create fanarts back.

As an author, I LOVE when people engage with my works. Please please please do it more; I PROMISE you will never annoy me. If you show me kindness, I will return the kindness ten times over—not because it’s the right thing to do, but because it makes everyone feel good, and brightens up our lives a little more. That’s what life is all about; enriching lives, to yourself and to others. The world needs more motivated minds.

So keep following your dreams. You have a supporter in me, so long as you are kind to yourself and others in the process. We are a community of artists, of authors, or composers, of people, and of kindness 💫

Admin Support

Single Admin: Currently, we have one admin who manages this club. Please allow for response time, as we're committed to making this club a positive experience for everyone.

Community Connection: After joining, feel free to reach out to other members on the tag list. This club thrives on mutual encouragement and celebrating each other's works. Connecting with other creators is always encouraged.

Proper Tagging

Clearly tag all works by fandom work. For example, fandom-specific tags like '#Hunger Games' or "#Marvel'.

If your work includes character x reader or character x oc pairings, please tag accurately: character x reader or character x oc. This helps readers find what they are looking for.

NSFW Content: Any NSFW (Not Safe for Work) content must be clearly tagged as such. This ensures that all members can enjoy the community in a safe and comfortable environment.

Content Warnings: Please add content warnings where necessary. For example, if your work has violence, please tag for violence. This makes our club safe and welcoming for all.

Tagging for Events: Please tag @bardic-tales after you make your post or answer a question for the events hosted by the Club. This allows me to upload your work to both @creators-club and @bardic-tales efficiently.

Submission Process

Hashtags: Always use relevant hashtags so we can categorize your work properly. If you do not include a fandom hashtag, we'll assume it is original work.

Ask Rounds: Asks are usually sent out in two rounds to avoid being barred from sending asks. Your patience is appreciated during this process.

Reblogs: Please be patient with reblogs, as I'm the only one managing this, as of right now, and I also want to be able to create my own content. I appreciate your understanding as I work to share everyone's submissions.

This isn’t up for debate. I’m just here to say one of my biggest pet peeves since joining the fanfic community is how other people act when they’re making requests or asking for recommendations.

I’ve been posting across socials for a couple months now sharing my favorite works and authors. Naturally, when you’re on the internet you get a variety of responses from various sorts of personalities. That’s how I know my people and can distinctly point them out from a crowd: they politely ask questions, suggest other recommendations aligned with the book, and offer insights into their own perspective—what they loved/didn’t love about it. Even if it’s just words on a screen, you can tell how kind people are irl.

The alternative of that always unnerves me. There’s an entitlement that’s tinged with arrogance leaving much to be desired. I’m left feeling offended for the authors. I respect people’s preferences, but there’s no need to shove certain opinions down our throats when we’re only trying to do some good and help share people’s art. ‘Cause wdym you refuse to read WIPs and you fear it’ll never be finished? Don’t start it then? And walk away without pissing on other people’s work?? There’s no need to riot in the comments section and get others to rally on your side. This isn’t a massive contest on who gets to be the snobbiest of them all.

It’s bad form to massively try and bring down some generous hobbyist writer’s work just because you can’t find enough patience and manners in your heart to appreciate incredible writing (which they share for FREE, btw).

Sometimes I think people forget how precious art is when it doesn’t have a price tag. I get insanely protective of that. Just because it’s free or they don’t have the full rights to it doesn’t take away from its value. You’d know that if you tried to open your minds and broaden perspectives.

As a full-time artist myself who’s had to climb her way to paid work, I think we tend to underestimate just how complex it is to put work out there that means something.

Please get an etiquette manual. Just because you disagree with how something is written doesn’t give you the license to shit all over it. Don’t like the plot? Good! Authors aren’t entitled to your requests, this isn’t a comedy bar, it’s a passion they do on the side. Have a complaint? So do I! I’ve read many books I have certain opinions on, but I don’t go around throwing 2.5 ratings acting like it’s published work now do I? Something isn’t for you? Well boohoo. Lots of things aren’t for lots of people, but you don’t see them picking a fight in the comments’ section like it’s a school playground do you.

I feel annoyed that I even have to put it out there. This is common decency, folks. Please do better.

a message for new users:

tumblr isn't like a lot of sites you're used to. if you're younger than i am (and it seems like a good deal of you are) you're probably used to social media sites that throw anything at you to get your attention. sites with algorithms that show you stuff they think you want to see. sites with verification and visible follower counts, so that you can see who is important. sites where you're expected to consume content, and not necessarily to create it. those sites are fun, and it's totally valid that you've learned to engage with them in the ways that you have. but it's not like that here.

a lot of you might be too young to remember when blogs were a mainstay of the internet. basically, people had their own little website where they posted stuff they made (usually writing), often centered around a specific topic or theme. so like, cooking blogs, poetry blogs, parenting blogs, etc. tumblr came about as a way to combine the individual expression of a blog with some of the more social aspects of social media. this way, you could post your own stuff to your blog, but you could also collect cool stuff you liked by reblogging. and then your blog was this cool hybrid of stuff you made and stuff you liked. and you could go find the cool stuff again, because it was on your blog.

you see, tumblr wasn't built for users to be audience members. tumblr was built for creators, and eventually became really well known for the way it cultivated communities. especially fan communities. part of why this worked well is because almost everyone participated. people shared their thoughts and cool stuff they made, they reblogged stuff they liked, maybe even added on to it or talked about why they liked it so much. when we talk about 2014 tumblr and how cool it was, (it wasn't but, y'know, nostalgia), part of that was how a lot of us were teenagers and young people on a site that let us make friends and build communities, where we could completely cultivate our own experience.

being on tumblr without participating in tumblr is kind of like having your camera and microphone off on a zoom call. yeah, we see that you're here. maybe you like a post sometimes, sort of like using the zoom thumbs up. but you're basically a ghost. and it's sad, because we want to hang out in cool little communities, but it feels like we're talking to a sea of faceless voids who don't respond.

when current users say that they want to scare off twitter and tiktok users, or people who make stuff complain about the lack of reblogs or comments, this is why. we're losing the communal aspect of tumblr that made it so great. more and more, users have no profile picture, blank blog titles, and are private or have no posts. they like posts instead of reblogging them. they don't engage. they're audience members. they're blank zoom squares. you feel like you're talking to no one, and it's sad.

so i beg of you, please engage. please reblog that story you liked, and tell the author the one line that made you squeal in the text of the reblog. please reblog that cool gifset you saw, and tell op that the colors are pretty. please reblog that cool art and let the artist know that you wish you could get it tattooed. and, above all, please make your own posts. talk about the weather today, write that story that's been in your head for a few weeks, make fan art of characters from two different shows making out, say something so weird it ends up screenshotted in a "cryptid vibes"pinterest board. send an ask to a user who's been around a while and ask them about the skeleton wars.

this is one of the only spaces left that isn't selling you something, that isn't trying to keep your eyes on it by any means necessary. this is one of the only spaces left that doesn't want you to be an audience member. so please, don't kill this space by refusing to take part in it.

welcome to tumblr. i hope you get the most out of being here that you can.

#how to tumblr #new to tumblr #new account #new user #hello tumblr #twitterpocalypse #long post #sorry but nobody will read it if i add a cut
