theres a certain character whose name i shan't say (but you'll probably know who im talking about) that gets the short end of the stick in both game and fandom content. and i get it: we should absolutely talk about the fact that this character gets less content, and why this is the case. but also...this discussion has taken up everything about this character. you can't talk about how you love them without every single comment begrudging the lack of content. every post about them has to mention it. rather than celebrating this really cool character and talking and hc'ing about them, the conversation stops dead in the water bc ppl would rather mention (not discuss: bc it's never a discussion, it's just commented on) the lack of content rather then, you know...talk and share and discuss this character.

if i have to see another fanart/post about them that starts with a "they have little content so i'm here to fix that!" im gonna explode. make art for the love of this character, not to meet some quota, please. we can (and should!) aknowledge that they're screwed by the creators and fandom, absolutely. but also...we need to celebrate them too. we deserve to enjoy them with our whole heart. can't we have some fun with them too, like all the other characters?

only talking about this character in negative contexts is doing exactly what ppl are complaining about: making less content for the character.

How do I deal with someone micromanaging me at work. Shes only sometimes in the department, doesn't do a great job when she is, and yet she's always telling me to make sure I do this or that even when the rush is about to hit and I cant start making 15 sandwiches when people are going to destroy the hotcase in t-minus 20 minutes.

with the shift away from strictly defined fandom terms, i feel there's been some confusion about the difference between plain inspiration and remixes/recursive fic. ao3 sorts these under the blanket term of 'inspired work', but they're distinct forms of fic and require completely different etiquette.

ime most people want to create a welcoming, collaborative fandom community. the majority of missteps i've seen around inspired works have come more from a lack of awareness of fandom etiquette than actual malice. my aim here isn't to provide rules but rather to put names to some common types of fic-about-fic and the standard etiquette associated with them. anyway, with all that being said, here are the definitions: inspiration: this isn't a fandom term and doesn't mean anything specific. there's no hard and fast rule for when you should credit an inspired work or communicate with an author before posting it -- a good rule of thumb is that if it's quite close, it's at least worth adding a shout-out in your notes.

however: remixes and recursive fics do describe specific things, so the rules are a little more cut. the defining feature of both is that they use the original fic as source material. as such, you need to be much more thoughtful about how you proceed with them. remix: remixes re-imagine an existing fic in some way. some common examples are: fics rewritten from an alternate POV, roleswaps or fics that use the same premise but alter the outcome or progression of events.

recursive fic: these are stories that use an existing fic as canon jumping-off point for their own. two common examples are: sequels, prequels, missing scenes fics remixes and recursive fics ALWAYS have to be clearly and explicitly credited. i have literally never met any author in any fandom who would be okay with an uncredited remix or recursive fic. there's some fandom-by-fandom variation in regards to whether or not one should ask the original author for permission before writing them, but it's usually good to assume they'd want to be asked. there's a lot of nuance in fandoms that have a culture of gifting remixes or recursive fics as surprises, but tbh it's just not that popular anymore so 'ask first' is a good default position. anyway!! i think recursive fics and remixes are a really lovely part of fanfic culture. often they come from a place of love, enthusiasm and a desire to connect. i would never want to see them disappear. but if you're not clearly communicating that they are remixes/recursive fics (and checking in with the author to make sure they're wanted) they come across as disrespectful at best and plagarism at worst.

Romarriche - “Your company is one of a kind… I would never lie to you. I would never say a half-truth or be quiet.” “What is it in your mind, Merold?” “Hearing your voice, complaint or not—it is music to me either way.” Merold - “If there is one constant in this world… Let it be you.” “You’re the cruelest and the kindest thing that happened to me.” “…If only you continued to look at me like that.” Romarriche - “…Merold?” Merold - “But~ It’s only a minor case of bad-mood-itis.” “So Romarriche, spoil me with a spar, will you?” Romarriche - “Merold.” Romarriche - “Look at me.” Merold - “…” Romarriche - “Is something… Wrong?” Merold - “Instead of a spar…” “I might want to lie down on your lap after all.”

Welcome to my first post.

My name is Davey Wreden and I typically use Cakebread as my nickname. However, someone had already taken that username, so I had to improvise.

I hope to get more feedback on one of my games, The Beginner's Guide. In short - it's an antology of my friend's games. Coda hasn't created a single game since 2011 and I do hope to still bring him back to the game devs work. I myself have published a game and received overwhelmingly positive responses but I'm not here for myself.

I'm doing this for him.

What brought me to this platform is a good feedback system. I've been on Twitter and Facebook for a whole but none of them has the anonymous ask feature this platform does. And while I do think scrapping someone's identity from their own words seems a bit counter productive, in some cases, that can bring the needed courage to say your thoughts. That's why we use usernames instead of our real names on the internet, anyways.

I also like the reblogging feature. It seems way better than having a work be reposted - since the original creators lose feedback this way.

That's why I'd like you to use the ask feature if you have any thoughts you feel are worth sharing about the game. Please, if you write your own reviews of this game, do tag me so I can tell you my insights.

Cakebread, out.

Breaking off the character for a moment, welcome! I'm shina and I'm the maker of this Fan Blog. I thought it would be silly to try to rp as Davey the character! Please do remember that this is me playing as DAVEY THE TBG CHARACTER, NOT THE ACTUAL DAVEY WREDEN. May that man never witness this and think I'm impersonating him 😭 hope someone will enjoy this!

[mbat]

also tbh if i ever did make a relativity falls au where mabel was the author, i wonder how different the concept would be between bill staying as a man or if i made him a woman instead

i just feel like a small change like that would affect how the whole thing felt by... a lot

┊ ⋆˚  about this blog !

— first and foremost, this is a male reader blog !!! i only write male reader inserts, the usage of she/her pronouns will never, ever be applied to any of my works that involve an insertion of yourself into the scenario. that being said, i don't really think i can/will enforce that those that read my work are only those that use he/him prns. so let's say, if those who use she/her pronouns decide to read my work, i won't purge them off of this page (i don't think i spend that much time on here to even do that) and burn them at the stake. all i very POLITELY ask is that: you don't interact malignantly with me or my posts. i don't tag my work "x fem reader", only "x male reader" and "x reader" so there shouldn't be any worries of my work "cluttering" (<- lmmmffaaoooooo) your tags of "x female reader"

— of course this ^ can be subject to change and become stricter if i start gaining negative attention from fem-alligned readers. so NOT SAYING IT'S SET IN STONE because that how i feel about this just right now.

— i plan on using this blog to just broaden the reach of one of my fanfics (keep safe) with the occasional posting of a smau/modern!au post every now and then.

— every now and then i might post a yandere drabble, oneshot, headcanon, etc just wanted to put that here since i know that it's not everyone cup of tea and wanted to disclaim this. some of the yandere headcanons already exist on here, but i think (i hope) i tagged it all appropiately....(i hope)

alright, that's all thank you for reading <3 jaime

the song blast processing by waterflame has done irreparable damage to my ecolalia/hj

I will literally just be repeating "bwomp bwomp bwaaa" "get ready for a lot of fun!! and excitement" "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 you win!!!" "you loose!!!" all the time in the voice. this has been happening on and off since forever

Nothing is funnier (but also so very annoying) than me discovering I've been signing wrong a word wrong my whole life because my mom (THE DEAF PARENT WHO TAUGHT ME) never corrected me as a kid because she knew what I meant

So far we have: Never, Meet, Learn

There's definitely others that I don't remember right now because I don't use them a lot in convo OR she still hasn't corrected me and I haven't come across the correct sign while searching online yet.

The best part is when I see the right sign, I can very easily recall my mom making those signs so many times in the past and me understanding exactly what she's saying but somehow never making the connection that I, personally, am not doing those signs the right way.
