#ye olde fandom

[notemily]

so I was just thinking about the era of Lord of the Rings RPF because of reasons, and like, that was a time in my life when I was very depressed and in denial about it, so my memories from that time are kind of like, memory not found? and I was trying to remember like "I'm fairly sure I shipped Dom/Billy, but I can't really remember any specific fics or headcanons or events--" and immediately my brain was like "what about those goddamn photos from Berlin" and like

can you fucking imagine

if we'd had tumblr

when this shit came out? Dom in eyeliner? Billy in a suit? Looking like they're about to start making out on the red carpet?? 12 dead 47 injured

actually I will say something about this:

setting up a romance line but waiting until one of the actors is a freshly legal adult before executing it is creepy, actually, especially when the co-star is 15 years older

i really don’t think it’s “typical dragon age fandom nonsense” for people to be genuinely upset about the world state choices. combat, level design, art direction, gameplay gimmicks, those have all varied across each dragon age game. the one thing that’s remained constant are nods to our previous choices.

i wasn’t expecting my HoF to come riding in on a griffon, but i can’t find a monument dedicated to warden tabris somewhere around the anderfels? lucanis couldn’t have some lines about the time that one arainai boy was stirring up trouble in antiva city? you’re gonna tell me that making a mage the new divine wouldn’t have some impact on nevarra and antiva? on the anderfels, the supposed most devout militant andrastian nation in thedas? you’re saying nobody in the north is paying attention to who rules orlais or ferelden? come on.

What you see when you step into the Slytherin common room.

"super invested in niche character dynamic that does not actually exist in canon" is a special kind of torment. keep thinking "why has nobody but me written about this?" girl it is because you made it up

people will say they’re all about sexualizing that old man but then unrecede his hairline and thicken his hair and smooth and tighten his skin. cowards.

At the end of The Crimes of Grindelwald: Newt Scamander, mortified: You dated the brutal- most undesirable no. 1 war criminal Gellert Grindelwald? Albus Dumbledore, calmly: Well he wasn't the brutal- most undesirable war criminal when I was dating him.

i would give anything to watch a full movie on how the entirety of brooklyn came to be "spot conlon's territory". half of the brooklyn newsies are practically grown ass men, and they answer to this scrawny blond fifteen year old??

How it feels knowing your in a DEAD fandom..

i think the thing i'm most disappointed about with riordanverse fandom now versus like 2014 is not only has the fandom not gotten any less racist or queerphobic or ableist (in fact in some regards its gotten worse!) but now it's just boring too. like there's no fandom infrastructure anymore - the community these days is almost entirely source material-driven - and you deviate from canon even slightly people get weird about it. whatever happened to the post-HoO fanon boom. the fandom needs to get weirder again. and self-sufficient. and less offensive.
