hey folks who interact with creative works online! just a tiny PSA

If you don't like a character, that's totally fine! If you have a different reading of a situation in a show & have issues with stuff that's going on, that's also fine.

What is NOT fine is to ACTIVELY SEEK OUT fans of the characters you don't like and talk shit about them, the characters they have feelings about, or the content they've posted b/c you, Freddy McHatesalot really needs to tell everyone how much you dislike a...fictional character.

You are totally welcome to consume content in your own space in whatever way you see fit. It is disrespectful of the fandom space to try to drag other people into your space and interact with you if they don't want to. And dunking on a character in writings or art of them is fucking rude as hell to the person who put work into into the creation they made out of some feelings they were having.

Also. side note, it is possible to enjoy a character who is Wrong About Some Things or Isn't Doing The Right Stuff In The Right Situation. Sometimes it's possible to like a character and disagree with them, and shitting on people b/c you can't see what they see in a character is pretty trash garbage and is 90% of why I just make silly little art for me and my own silly feels and hope folks get a chuckle or some enjoyment out of it too.

#Behave better #and if you can't behave yourself I'm not going to play into your little hate roleplay #you can do that elsewhere while I enjoy the nuance in my media thankss #don't pull me or my work into your weird vendetta against fictional characters #I draw art for me and for anyone who is feeling like I am #to jump in and be like “this person is the shittiest & I hate them” on that creation is ummmmm #why I don't interact with fandom like I used to #b/c if people can't control themselves it spoils the whole pot #I don't like some characters and stories and ships #does anyone here who isn't a close friend of me irl even know what they are?#no b/c I don't find that worthwhile to spend my time doing #I don't fill my page with hate for fictional characters. I post what I enjoy and share it to put more joy out there in the world #sorry this is so long #I'm just fucking pissed b/c I thought we were past this bad behavior #and I'm too old too tired too busy and too stressed to have to put up with this shit. Grow up.

do you ever just get so exhausted by the same characterization of characters in fanfic that you have to binge read hannigram fics??

like fanfic is riddled with characters wrestling with their morality and making sure they’re good people and if they even do something slightly morally wrong they’ll beg for forgiveness and apologize over and over again through stumbled rambling. and the characters feel guilty about the dumbest fucking shit like having sexual fantasies about someone and they spiral because “it’s not right and they don’t have the right to have sexual fantasies about that person”. and the romances are painfully all healthy and sweet and they have conversations about everything in depth.

like god fanfic is so filled with morality it can just be exhausting and sometimes i just need to read about two men who are unapologetic about how toxic they are and use murder and manipulation as foreplay.

#hannibal #hannibal lecter #hannigram #will graham #this is also why i don’t read modern day books #cause they’re just so dull and exhausting #the characters all HAVE to be morally correct #AND we always get rants about dumb shit so we know how the author feels about a subject #i remember reading an adult book and a character went on a random fucking internal rant about how virginity is a social construct #the way i rolled my eyes so hard #because it literally did not matter to the story and it was so random #books are so filled with moments like those and it’s so boring #we get it you’re liberal and woke #please at least let your characters be interesting #that’s it #it’s fiction #please for the love of god this is where you can be creative and interesting #but they never are #op

I simply think that white straight male incels shouldn't be playing genshin/hsr anymore and should just die afterwards

#I got to twt for one min and it's filled with lesbophobia that ruined my entire mood. that's great #also something about a streamer being weird towards robin......#and making the GROSSEST comment I've ever seen when hcing her as a lesbian #this seriously sucks why hate women and lesbians this much lmao #luckily I've only seen this shit on twt (ofc. the most toxic app to exist)#these streamers and their fans can kindly go fuck themselves #imagine being so mad with your tiny little dick that someone hc a fictional character as a lesbian #also why complain about us being annoying when genshin and hsr is LITERALLY FILLED WITH YURI??????#they really are blind af 💀 no anime girl will fuck you go pay your taxes white 30 year old man #also I'll never forget the lesbian fetishization from these men when the acheswan animation dropped #tons of them making “hOt” and “iM hArD” comments. WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!!#you like seeing two women get together but when they're ACTUALLY together it's a problem?#kys ♡♡♡♡#txt. ⚡#genshin impact #honkai star rail

Quick idea prompt 1:

... Ok, but like, what if when Danny arrives to DC (for whatever reason), it's during the Arkham games timeline/universe (or hell, it doesn't have to be seperate universes anymore, if that makes sense). Or something similar to it in a way? (... Looks at Arkham City)

Or just- Danny in a version of Arkham City....

Yeah, Danny in Arkham City. Nothing can go wrong with that :D

#dp x dc #dc x dp #dp x dc prompt #this is just a quick prompt thing #I want Danny to arrive during Arkham City specifically #why? Riddler Trophies #just- riddler trophies #plus it be interesting how much canon can diverge just because of one person #What are some of things Danny can do when he's unaware of what's to come next #cause as much as it be funny if the DC stuff existed in his verse as fictional and vice versa #I want to see Danny's reaction to what looks like an abandoned wasteland or dystopian city of sorts #filled with criminals. some who deserved the sentencing than others #but like Arkham City was definitely a huge human rights violation in so many ways #Hell it doesn't have to be an exact Arkham City game timeline #could be a similar universe that has an Arkham City but the narrative of things were different right from the start for the universe #does this make sense?#idk i just think Danny in Arkham City could be interesting #Quick Idea Prompt #I just imagine Danny being feral either way #Danny Fenton #idk if this makes any sense lmao #i'm tired

self care is unfollowing people who spread negativity on ur dash!! like Damn! yeah i theoretically Agree with your crit but i really Don't wanna see it either bc i want to Celebrate content instead of hyperfixating on the stuff i didn't like about it! yeet!!!

#jen rambles #i had someone call a SU fic i wrote once a 'fix it' and i'm just like #NO!!!#it was Not a fix it!#because a fix it would assume that i think i am Better and More Smart than the creators and that is hubris i really don't want #to take upon myself #i just like!! taking the elements i like and writing More of it!#that's all #i also feel like there's lots of people who just crumple when things in fiction aren't coherently explained #but i've always seen those holes as Opportunities?#idk like on one hand is leaving holes in your narrative bad writing? likely #but also the very soul of fan creation has Always been stepping alongside canon and re-imagining it #and oft filling those holes #and i just wish more people would join me in doing so in good faith to the source material #instead of doing it in that sort of 'ughhh so like since canon fucking sucks i'm fixing it :)' way #one day i'll prob Myself talk about the issues i had with the plotting of This Thing and you'll see tons of overlap with what #others are saying about it #but like idk. just why make that your sole focus? doesn't that bum other people out too?#like it kind of breaks my heart seeing people so fixated on the imperfections that they can't even enjoy what Was #i just don't get this mindset

I'm so unbelievably susceptible to the famous secret relationship trope it's unreal actually

#like. is this my way of getting my rpf fix or something without actually engaging in rpf?#actual miracle that I'm not a g*ylor if we're being honest. bc I just saw someone advertising their book that's coming out in a few months #on tiktok. and it's undeniably a g*ylor book the author is undeniably a g*ylor there's a high chance it won't be good bc I saw it on tiktok #AND YET. ANYWAY. I WAS LIKE “OOH SOUNDS INTERESTING” OK. GET HELP!!!#that's why g*ylors are like that actually bc g*ylor conspiracy theories make great stories #it's just that they think it's cool to treat real people like fictional stories #anyway. other examples of me having issues. um. I rush to band aus youtuber aus reality tv aus actor aus etc in fanfic #uh. most well known example of published books obviously rwrb. I also loved the seven husbands of evelyn hugo #I've read two (2)!! different boy band secret relationship books. so.#my favorite part is always the fake social media I'm filled with glee imagining the in universe rpf fandom losing their mind #there's nothing a bitch loves more than a fake twitter thread or tumblr post #I do this even with works that don't focus on the celebrity aspect like I read aftg and technically they're well known college athletes #so even though the hypothetical in universe sports fandom isn't a huge part of it I'm still reading it like I KNOW TWITTER IS ON FIRE RN!!!

Or Don't #I am! Will! Have?

The more I think about storybrooke logistics the more my fucking brain hurts. Like. There’s the really simple stuff that can easily just be explained away by “magic” with no real thought and just a lazy piece of fucking duct tape such as: mail. Stores/restaurants being restocked. How does the money work? Taxes! What’s going on there?!?! But then there’s like BIG stuff that makes ABSOLUTELY ZERO SENSE.

Like okay fine it’s a self contained bubble of magic so things just magically restock whatever FINE. Lazy but fine.

But what about when Regina tells Emma she has to take nick and Ava (aka Hansel and Gretel) out of storybrooke to go to an orphanage in Boston? Like yeah I know it DOESNT end up happening but why would Regina even try it if “something bad happens when people leave storybrooke” (also like bruh what happens? Do they just die? Poof out of existence?? What then??

And then there’s the time Kathryn gets ACCEPTED TO LAW SCHOOL?! Bitch WHERE?!?! Ur not a real person. Do you have a social security number? Did u apply for fucking FAFSA???? Like what the literal fuck is going on
