Yall need to interact with fanfiction author's more.
So. After the ddos attack on ao3.
I was encouraged to write more comments and make my love known to fanfic writers.
I dont really like commenting. Because im a bit shy and soooo lazy.
Now though. I am writing more comments. And dude. This is so heartwarming. Ya'll need to treat writers better. They are doing the lord's work.
Take for an example, couple of days prior, i was searching for something interesting to read, and found an oneshot quite compelling.
I read it. At the end of it, i was blown away by how good it was. It promised me something and it went beyond my expectations. But then i saw a crime, zero fucking comments!
At that moment, i wasn't feeling up to writing a comment. Because, normally i like to write huge paragraphs. But because im lazy i decided to be brief.
Next day, the author answered that the comment lift their mood for the whole day.
That warmed my heart.
Duuuuuuuude! Write comments! Suport the writers of the fics you like! No need to be something super elaborate. Just give your thoughts. Freak out. Ramble. Ask something. Make theories. Compliment. Make a joke about how you wished to give kudos every chapter but ao3 sucks(not true bby) and won't let you.
Truly. Just. Comment. It can make someone's day. And that is part of the apeal of writing fics. Interacting with people.
Just give love to fanfic writers yall. They deserve this and so much more.

Mike wonders how much longer Richie’s shenanigans will last before he’s booted out for blabbing so loudly. Not to mention drinking something so sticky near the return cart… Still, listening to his voices never fails to cheer him up during his otherwise dull shifts at the Derry Public Library.
In another life where I am better at writing, Richie and Mike friendship dynamics would always be at the top of my "details to include" list in my fics.

This might be partly my own bias (from it being my experience) but I think I'm more right than not—the Fury is easily one of the, if not the, best Chapter IIIs to encounter first.
You get through your second chapter. You're used to the looping. Maybe you've even done a full route and think you know everything. And then the Chapter III title card fades and you're met with MEAT.
It feels like you've completely broken the world, but it's still in line with the format of the game. Some Chapter IIIs (Razor and MoC) break the game because they fall out of line with the format, so they work better once you've been through a couple routes and understand how things are supposed to work. But you can get the full effect of MEAT at any time. Others (Greys, Wraith, Thorn) break the pattern by taking away one of your options, which works just as well at the end of your first route as it does every time, but they can't match the sheer weight of looking around and seeing MEAT. The sound of the MEAT path. The MEAT cabin. The background music that's among the best tracks in the game.
Just. MEAT. You get past Chapter II and for your troubles you get MEAT. It really sets up how much you can break the game.

Annatar during chapter 39 of The Harrowing by Chthonion~
And then doodles with some of my favourite bits from the afore mentioned chapter -
I've been meaning to do stuff from this chapter since it came out cause it is amazing- (in a 'wanting to suffocate Annatar with hugs and cups of tea, and the collateral sufferers too- like getting Maedhros back to Fingon for recuperation' kind of a way) - at revealing just how messed up Annatar's mindset is. I definitely recommend the Maedhros pov as well- the amount of '... I don't think I even want to unpack that statement' and 'seriously. We have gone over this. At least three times. In the last twenty minutes. Why do you not get it??' that goes through his head during that conversation is just- Amazin~
:D
This fic is really cool and I highly recommend it to anyone even vaguely into lotr or the Silmarillion.
:D

Hello, I would like to discuss some implications!
Between the fact that Harrow herself didn't use her sexuality as a reason and this fear about other Houses becoming involved in the Ninth:
I think we can assume that in the Nine Houses everyone is essentially expected to be attracted to people regardless of gender, especially when it comes to political alliances. It's not entirely clear whether the idea was brought up to her or she was getting ahead of it, but either way the possibility of a strategic marriage was floating around.
So, this tells us that at some point Harrow must have had to shield Gideon from marrying Ortus.
Did Harrow ever bring it up as a threat they both knew was empty, or did they both silently avoid it? Would Gideon hit her with the, "What are you going to do, hitch me to Ortus?" when she went on one of her monologues about punishment and House loyalty? Would Gideon ever be genuinely worried about the prospect; would she ever try to thank her, prompting a "I meant what I said, Griddle - I can't have an imbecile like you contaminating my Houses' bloodline"-esque response?
In any scenario, it gives Gideon more evidence that Harrow both understands her and is willing to place her over the needs of the Ninth and raises the question of how Harrow justified it to herself!
