✨✨✨ Hey Gallavich Artists! ✨✨✨
Hello!! I've seen a lot of new art accounts around lately and it's so exciting! I wanted to give ya'll a heads up on some monthly creator events that you can participate in.
(There's also lots of annual events spread throughout the year of course, but for now I just wanted to point out these two because you have a chance to participate every month, you don't have to sign up, you just join in when you feel inspired!)
@gallacrafts : once a month a theme is announced and you have one week to make something, everyone posts on the same day at the end of the week!
This month's gallacrafts theme! <-
@shamelesscreatorsnetwork : at the beginning of the month a theme is announced and you have the whole month to create as many things as you want and can post them whenever you want during the month! This month's SCN theme! <-
Hope to see more from all of you!! 💖💖💖

Mickey must’ve thought about Ian so much while in jail after s5. Ian was mid episode when mick got arrested and then he barely visited him while he was in jail. He must’ve worried so much.

Gallavich Fanart Masquerade
Tumblr media
This was my entry for the event! Thanks to @gallavichthings for organizing it! I had a lot of fun planning, scheming and guessing with everyone else! Also so much amazing art work came out of this event, we are being fed so good! Process & Scrapped ideas:
I actually struggled quite a bit, hahaha! But in a fun way! I wanted my entry to tell a bit more of a story, so I figured fantasy would do the trick. I made some quick doodles to kind of flesh that potential story out in my head.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I had also originally settled for a bigger piece, and something more aligned with my own style. But this event was all about trying to trick others 😈So I repainted the sketch lol.
Tumblr media
Fantasy however wasn't my first pick. I went through multiple cycles of drawing something, thinking I'll for sure trick people. And then looking back at it the next day & thinking "wow, this says 'Pie' all over it" LOL.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The first one I had already posted before. And for the second one I thought I'd make it a bit more spicy and a bit more inspired by the art style of older manga! But since my art already takes inspo from anime it doesn't really help me much LOL.
After that I decided to branch out more with brushes, I thought of drawing them having fun in the summer, playing with water n all that. I decided to go back to sweet ol' Paint Tool Sai for that one. Since I used to love drawing with crayon brushes! I scrapped it however since the style still felt too similar to my own... The last one was mostly just me trying to experiment more with the style. I couldn't really think of a cool story concept so I scrapped it very early on as you can see LOL (Not even a Mickey in the picture... OTL) I hope this was interesting to someone, lol. I had a lot of fun in the end! And I hope I managed to trick at least one person 🤣!

I just saw your post about ian’s disorder and how it distorts his reality and makes him question why mickey remains in his life and you really hit the nail on the head. people rarely talk about gallavich’s relationship battles from ian’s perspective unless it’s to criticise him and I think a lot of people find it difficult to relate to his issues ig? but mood disorders go hand in hand with anxiety, identity and confidence issues. but I also think its a writing issue because so little of ian’s experiences with his illness comes from his own perspective. so it makes sense the audience tends to sympathise more with mickey because we don’t get to see ian’s personal struggle or his reasoning for certain behaviors and s10 is one of the rare examples where he got to explain his issues and the audience still couldn’t understand. sorry this is ranty lol but I’m just happy to see more meta that defends some of ian’s actions 😊
Thank you <3 It makes me sad to see so many comments practically demonise Ian, and while Ian DOES do questionable things, he's no more or less blameless than Mickey.
A comment on my post mentioned that Ian fought for Mickey just as much as Mickey fought for Ian ... in the early seasons. Remember, Mickey literally beat Ian up in frustration over the situation with Svetlana and the forced marriage. Does him attacking Ian get him off the hook for what he did? No. Does it justify it? No. It's context, not justification, which can be two entirely different things. Ian refused to let Mickey go, he loved Mickey and was visibly heartbroken at the idea his man was slipping away, even if Mickey was trying to cover up his own upset by acting aggressively. Stans might paint Ian as in the wrong again, saying he should have been supportive of Mickey going through the forced marriage and understanding it's not as 'easy' as Ian makes it sound for Mickey to just deny his father. But bearing in mind, their relationship was still very young, Ian knows Terry is a disgusting and violent man, but the sense of doom and horror is not the same unless you've grown up with it and lived it like Mickey.
Ian fought for Mickey. And Mickey fought for Ian during his bipolar struggles. Keeping score is NOT wise in relationships, so I wouldn't call this keeping score, more them trading places in who is asking the other to stay or saying they love the other during dark times.
Another point is that this was all before Ian's bipolar condition really started to manifest, so Mickey must have been even more confused that the man who was distraught over him entering a meaningless marriage was suddenly pulling away and questioning his devotion. Emotional permanence is difficult in a lot of conditions, again I am not bipolar myself but DO have pretty erratic emotional issues that mean I can go from feeling adored to feeling like the scum of the Earth everyone hates, and there's the persistent background hum of feeling unwanted that's lifelong. Ian gets a triple-hit in that he's a middle child (younger than Fiona and Lip, older than Carl, Debbie and Liam), he's inherited Monica's bipolar disorder and his chronically unstable home life tends to lead to the idea of feeling wanted by his parents and forgotten by most. I wouldn't be surprised if he felt like his mother just rejected him/abandoned him considering how often she is gone, Frank has literally attacked him unprovoked and it was only when he grew in height and gained some confidence he really started to push back, and he is neither the baby of the family nor the parent figures that Fiona and Lip were forced to be. The people he tends to form relationships with tended to lean towards lust with no real chance at a stable, happy relationship (Kash, a married man with children, and Ned, who is the same albeit Jimmy is an adult) before Caleb and Trevor, which wouldn't surprise me if he again subconsciously thought he was disposable.
I guess I'm picking up on the side effects of Ian's neurodivergence, and it pairs with a comment remarking on how people are supportive of mental health disorders until their effects affect them, then suddenly everything is unacceptable. Again, some of Ian's actions are not justified - I'm once again referring to him baiting Mickey into a physical fight by calling him slurs - but he himself explains why he did it. Mickey looked past it, and I do wonder if he's realising that yeah ... Ian, the man HE knew and who was proudly gay with very little tolerance for homophobia, suddenly turning around and calling him slurs was incredibly out of character and likely another moment of Ian's brain lashing out.
Ian did negative things to Mickey, and he should apologise. Just as Mickey has done things to Ian and should apologise. One is not better than the other. Mickey's reasons for doing things can lie with his upbringing, PTSD and circumstances, Ian's reasons can lie with bipolar disorder, his upbringing and circumstances. But they are still well-intentioned for each other, and I think they do help bring out the best in each other.

✨ Weekly Tag Wednesday ✨
Thank you so much for tagging me - love this one! (i love them all actually) @jrooc
@stocious @michellemisfit @doshiart @mybrainismelted @mmmichyyy
@sgtmickeyslaughter @gallapiech @suzy-queued @spookygingerr @roryonic
Name and A03 handle: Julia, Blue_Disco_Lights
Current Location: my dining table - my work is hybrid, so this (suprisingly uncomfortable setup) is my desk twice a week.
Favourite picrew: I never really wore my space buns this high, maybe a bit lower… also the jewelry is a Chain Mickey homage obviously.
Tumblr media
What's one thing you want in a picrew? I love a creative background and good sweater options. If left to my own devices, I’d be in a hoodie all the time, but it’s nice to spice things up!
Favourite thing you’ve created (or seen created) for the fandom? Hard to choose! it's a tie between some @galladrabbles and these @gallacrafts.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Why is it your favourite? I’ve been knitting since I was a kid but never really got beyond the scarf phase lol - and Season 1 Not-a-booty-call/“Whatever, see ya” Mickey wore that green scarf and I knew I had to recreate it. The t-shirt is me attempting to draw for the tomato theme and I just think it would be so funny if Ian actually wore this outside.
Did it come easily or was it hard to create? For the scarf, it was all about finding the right yarn and also that cute patch that just appeared out of nowhere at the craft store. Drawing is hard because i don't know how 😆
Last ao3 fic you commented on? It was either on Shame-proof written by @ms-moonlight-inn and @notherenewjersey or A Song Only You Can Hear by @suzy-queued - both so good!
Biggest WIP heartache you’ve ever experienced? I’m usually OK with WIPs taking a while, truly… but oh man, I’ll copy @jrooc's answer and say Things Beyond Mistake by grayola. What a STUNNING work and we’re left just aching for what happens for those two. My second is Elevator Music by gallavichsecurity- another beautifully written one that I hope will continue one day. 
Favourite trope or head cannon you like included in a fanfic? I love enemies to lovers, the slower the burn the better 🫠🔥 . I’ve yelled about loving road trip plots a lot, so I loved Highway of Hedonism  by @roryonic (w/ beautiful art by @gallapiech).
Least favourite? I’ve never gravitated to mpreg   
Secret or surprising kink or trope? Never even knew A/B/O was a thing until i got here - hello! Same goes for Whump - once it clicked that it was an actual genre, it was like oh wow, i think i’ve been into this my whole life lol.
Describe how you feel after you’ve created something new? Er, shocked quite honestly. When I see that I actually have multiple things posted on AO3 I do wonder who that person is??
Top hype man you have that always helps you get across the finish line: There are so many hype people i want to thank in my writing journey - your amazing comments & reblogs really made me feel like a writer! (which was a little shocking - so please know they went a long way 💕) @gallawitchxx @energievie @creepkinginc @jrooc @michellemisfit @palepinkgoat @gillyp @suzy-queued @ian-galagher @sweetbee78 @francesrose3 - and special shout out to @mybrainismelted for being an amazing sounding board and co-conspirator on Gallavich Summer Camp among other things!
It's been a bad day, you turn to the fandom and you _____? Hang out on Discord and Tumblr, and fall into one of the very many tabs I have open. Currently it’s You’ll Never See Us Again by @spoonfulstar - and omggggg.
If you're tagged in this post and haven't made one of these yet - this is your official invite!

the girl who posted that stuff about Mickey made a TikTok that paints Mickey as a huge villain who’s only ever been horrible and abusive towards Ian and Ian as a hapless victim and the comments are filled with Mickey hate and saying he was an asshole for all the things he’s done to Ian, with absolutely zero sympathy for the situation Mickey was in. 
But if someone made a video of all the times Ian was awful to Mickey there would be uproar and all of those fans would be screaming and crying about Mickey fans saying they just don’t understand and that fans have no sympathy for Ian and that Mickey fans are toxic blah blah blah. 
These people claim that they “actually understand gallavich” even though they think Ian has never done anything wrong in his life and can’t see how they’ve both hurt each other and equally. And then they come on and claim that they love Mickey🙄 
I saw that! The video itself is good but the comments are ridiculous. People who wouldn’t dare criticize Ian pulling apart every one of Mickey’s actions.
It always cracks me up that they think they understand Gallavich better than others lmao. Ian is angel baby cupcakes to them and Mickey is this big evil guy. They hold everything Mickey did in the early seasons against him and yea like you said, have no sympathy for the fact that his abusive father literally had him raped and all the other shit that happened to him. They fully think he’s just horrible for everything he did during that time.
But if you mention the things that Ian has done that weren’t great and that while understandable, absolutely hurt Mickey, you’re the literal devil apparently.
It’s soooo annoying because Ian and Mickey’s trauma has informed so much of both of their actions and while it shouldn’t be an excuse and BOTH of them should be held accountable, it is important to understand the reasoning behind their actions. But those people don’t even try to understand it for Mickey and allllways use it as an excuse for Ian. Yet it’s always said that Mickey fans are the ones who never hold him accountable 🙄 Ian and Mickey have both hurt each other a lot but they’re right for each other because they’re as fucked up as each other and love each other more than anything. Idk how you can say all that shit and agree with opinions like that and still claim to love Mickey and Gallavich but that’s just me🤷‍♀️

Wednesday tag game
Hiii darling angelpies! I am here on timeish 😆
I was tagged by these dazzling sweethearts Nosho @creepkinginc Mel @gardenerian Evie @energievie Deanna @deedala Kat @ mybrainismelted Julia @blue-disco-lights Al @spookygingerr Jessica @guinguin1984
How did you get into the fandom?
Like a lot of us 😆 I saw a fan edit of Mickey & Ian on YouTube (I can't find it again even when I've searched my history 😭) I was kinda in between fandoms at the time with Malex from Roswell New Mexico but they were broken up at the time & buddie lol.
But then I was shot through the heart when I went through the gallavich tag & it felt like home 🥰
How long have you been here?
I was lurking at the end of 2021 & the first official time I contributed to this darling fandom in Feb 2022 with gallacrafts 💝
What's the first fandom channel you found? (youtube, reddit, tumblr, insta, twitter, FB, other?)
Here on tumblr babeeeyy
What's your favourite now?
Still tumblr but I wish I was better on discord 😅 I get overwhelmed & don't wanna talk over ppl 😔
Which mutual have you known the longest in the fandom?
Oh my goodness I had no idea but my longest mutual is the always spectacular Calli @callivich 🥰🩵💙 woooww!!
Which tumblerinos did you have your first fandom crush(es) on and wanted to get to know?
Y'all have to understand you are all unbelievably swoon worthy & there's only so many ppl I can tag in one post (damn you tagging limit 😣)
Ok, so definitely have a big crush on Deena @suzy-queued & to see smitten feeling is mutual got me
Tumblr media
GIF by theresaphoenixinmyboot
Alice @darthvaders-wife Jane @captainjowl Mitch @psychicskulldamage when we became mutuals I squealed bc how much talent??
Jenna @ianrightsonly & Kay @goodkwuestion their fics changed me
Also, Benja @svltburn | Nosho | Vey @look-i-love-u Macy @heymacy Julissa @heymrspatel Jo @jomilky Harvey @mikhailoisbaby Georgia @iansw0rld Molly @deathclassic Stas @messedwithmandy Howl @howlinchickhowl Michelle @michellemisfit | Deanna | LJ @ofalltheginjoints Sam @sam-loves-seb Face @ burninface | Calli | AJ @ clingymickey Mills @gallavichsbitch Leah @whatwouldmickeydo
Also Jay!! You've left but gave me butterflies 🦋
Pls I kind hate this question! I've come to the conclusion I have a crush on you all OK?? 😭
This is why I make y'all Valentine's
First gallavich fan fic you read (or that blew you away that you remember)?
By the magnificent Kay The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Ian Gallagher!!! OH MY GOSH JUST THINKING ABOUT THIS FIC MAKES ME FEEL ELATED & FERAL!!! It's my favourite piece of written work & I need my non gallavich ppl to read it so I can scream into their faces how much I love it 🥰🩷🩷🩷
First fan art that blew your mind?
Seriously, Deena's gallacrafts & art always take my breath away!!! Like the artistry & creativity?? I wanna get to your level 🥰
It's three dimensional & has twinkling lights ✨️ I was astounded & my jaw literally dropped 😍
All of Alice's art especially my commissioned art 🩷
Also, Mitch's comic I stared at it forever like Ian's eyes reflecting Mick's booty 🍑👀
Fanfic trope that you were sure wasn't for you but now you low key (or high key) love?
I have read some pretty freaky & nasty fic bc of curiosity, so I nothing really gave me icks in tropes, but in writing style, I got turned around with Jen @wehangout with second person POV. You're so talented that I really enjoyed them when I would nope out before 😆
What surprised you most about this fandom?
Everything surprised me about this fandom bc it was my first one!! 😆 I didn't really know how to do tumblr & didn't really get how to interact. So I used tumblr like a sticker book, then came learning tags & so ppl reached out to me which helped me gain confidence haha
This is kinda a golden standard fandom. So welcoming, loving & encouraging!! If I ever dabble in another fandom, imma have a high standard bc I've been spoiled by y'all! ILY
Moment in the show (or YT vids if you're one of those) that you fell in hyperfixation with gallavich?
It was the "I'm fucking gay" scene to the "Guess what we've been doing daddy" The way he humps the car with all that conviction & screaming "he fucking loves it".
Everything clicked & I was like "Damn I love this fictional man." He is my favourite character of all time & this ship is my OTP & GOAT.
Also I love this edit too. It gives me chills
youtube
Ian or Mickey?
Mickey, but holy shit I love them both
Tumblr media
Which gallagher or milkovich are you?
I took a page from @/guinguin1984 & did some quizzes & I got Fiona Ian Fiona Debbie not of them feel right ahaha
I guess Fiona bc I had her twice 😅
Consider yourself tagged if I have a crush on you or mentioned you. Also tagging these sunshines & if you wanna do it too, have at it 💛🥰
@lingy910y @mickittotheman @doshiart @crossmydna @y0itsbri @7x10mickey @whatthebodygraspsnot @ms-moonlight-inn @mmmichyyy @sickness-health-all-that-shit @kiinard @transmickey @gallawitchxx @sleepyheadgallavich @rereadanon @whaticameherefor @darlingian @andthatisnotfake @ian-galagher @francesrose3

thinking about writing this for Gallavich A.U.gust week 1 (or if I don't finish it in time then I'll post it during the free week)
Just wanted to know what you guys thought of this idea :)
Some Caleb bashing
EMT Ian
In this AU, Caleb and Ian having been dating for a few years now. It kind of feels like they're going through the motions somedays, there's just this missing spark that Ian tells himself isn't a big deal because it's just a small rough patch and all couples go through it
He loves Christmas but Caleb doesn't as much and makes jabs at Ian's expense about it (he does that about a lot of things Ian likes, actually) but again, he just brushes it off
Instead of being with his family for the holiday, he accepts Caleb's invitation to spend it with his family instead (idk if I'd make them more accepting of his sexuality or not and add to the drama)
And the neighborhood Caleb's parents live in just so happens to be the same one that Mandy Milkovich lives in now that she's escaped her abusive father. It's also the same year that she convinces her grumpy, foul-mouthed brother to join her now that he's out of Terry's grasp as well. She wants this year to be different for them, for them to have a happy Christmas for the first time in their lives
As it turns out, Christmas isn't really a big deal in Caleb's family. They'll celebrate but it's nothing like Ian's used to at his own childhood home. What's worse is that he hoped to use this opportunity to get close to his boyfriend's family and he just can't. They're polite but seemingly uninterested
And one morning while Caleb is out (for work, or some tradition with his family), Ian goes for a walk and ends up down the street where he sees a guy fall off a roof while trying to install Christmas lights. He's cursing at the woman--his wife? No, no, he learns, sister and she's just rolling her eyes, unconcerned
He gets to know the Malkovich's and forms a fast bond. He gets along better with them than Caleb's family, that's for sure. And as he helps the siblings create their own version of a perfect Christmas, Ian gets along with Mickey easily. He can banter with him and not deal with passive-aggressive remarks in return. It's...it's just different
Over the course of his stay in the neighborhood, Ian comes to terms with the fact that he's fallen out of love with his boyfriend and fallen in love with the guy down the street

Alright everyone, thank you for voting and commenting on the format for this year's Gallavich Week! It looks like a lot of people like the one-word prompts, but quite a few do enjoy multiple and varied prompts. I was thinking about having a bingo, but wasn't sure if the format would be good, but with these results and with @michellemisfit suggesting exactly that, this is what I decided we'll do.
We're having a bingo week, which means for the first time ever there will be no assigned dates, and posting will be done on any day during that week. More on posting later, but for now I want suggestions to complete the bingo cards (please take notice that I probably won't be using all the suggestions, but I'll keep them in mind for future events as well).
There will be three cards, each with different kinds of prompts, and thus I need suggestions for:
- one or two-word prompts (like Summer, Tomatoes, Best friends, etc.)
- dialogue prompts (one or two sentences at most, please, like "What are you doing here?" or "I knew you'd say that.")
- media prompts (songs, artists, albums, films, TV shows, comic books, books, paintings, sculptures, anything goes - last year even locations were prompts).
I'll be accepting suggestions until the weekend, when I'll post the bingo cards as well as posting dates and details.
See ya soon!

Weekly Tag Wednesday
AND IT'S STILL WEDNESDAY (a first). Thank you @blue-disco-lights and @wehangout for the tag. <3
Name and A03 handle: sam / ms_gallavich [cringe]
Current Location: living room couch in my new apartment. the upgrade from my last apartment is actually insane. i'm quite pleased.
Favourite picrew: any one in which i am channelling my lord and saviour, mickey milkovich. par exemple:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
What's one thing you want in a picrew? uhh...good piercing options?
Favourite thing you’ve created (or seen created) for the fandom? as cringe as it is now several years removed, i was at one time one half of a very elaborate long-form mickey/ian rp on instagram that we regularly maintained throughout most of the "dark years" (2017-2019) when we thought s07e11 was the last time we'd ever see gallavich on screen. i feel like it brought a wide swath of the fandom together at that time, and it was a lot of fun.
less cringe, i like these two embroideries lol.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Why is it your favourite? gallavich embroidery got me through the pandemic lockdowns tbh. i taught myself stitches watching youtube videos and would work on pieces while binge watching different shows. (remember tiger king and squid games? lol. wild. feels like a lifetime ago.) made me feel at least semi-productive. also i love skeletons, so obvi that one is dear to me lol.
Did it come easily or was it hard to create? i am straight garbage at doing the lettering. i also rip out and restitch sections a lot.
Last ao3 fic you commented on? definitely left an unhinged comment on @suzy-queued's A Song Only You Can Hear fairly recently.
Biggest WIP heartache you’ve ever experienced? Grayola's Things Beyond Mistake was a punch to the tit, i won't lie. and i walked into anomalously's Promised Land with eyes wide open, knowing it was abandoned, and yet... 🥲i'm still subscribed to about 20 others i am still holding out hope for... 🥲🥲
Favourite trope or head cannon you like included in a fanfic? it would probably be easier to name the tropes i don't like lol. love a good soulmate fic. and got to love "only one bed" hehe. slow burn and friends to lovers/mutual pinning too. just inject that straight into my veins.
Least favourite? i wouldn't say it's a trope, but i strongly dislike fics where they sleep with other people. don't care for mpreg either. or mcd (unless its something supernatural wherein they are only dead temporarily -- then i love it).
Secret or surprising kink or trope? most surprising would be abo (minus the mpreg), since i had never even heard of it until about a year after i started reading fic. thank god for that comprehensive abo primer on a03 lol.
Describe how you feel after you’ve created something new? "i'm deleting this 30 seconds after i post unless someone likes it"
Top hype man you have that always helps you get across the finish line: i'm a lone wolf these days.
It's been a bad day, you turn to the fandom and you _____? start rereading something old written by one of my og favs.
(e.g., @loftec, @wehangout, @goodkwuestion, @gallavichy, @palepinkgoat,
@beckyharvey29, @the-rat-wins, @biblionerd07, @crimson-bebop, @captainjowl,
andchaos, mellow_yellow, MintSauce, Violet_Jones, lilbatfacedgirl, romanticalgirl, anomalously, horror_business, 09cityskylight, so many more that i missing that i now have anxiety lmaoooo)
Tagging a few people and extending the invite to anyone who would like to play. <3 @jademickian @transsexual-dandelions @ms-moonlight-inn @mickeym4ndy @sweetbee78

Tumblr media
Just a reminder for anyone new or anyone who has been lurking:
I know it’s difficult coming into a new fandom but everyone in the Gallavich fandom on tumblr is very friendly and kind, so don’t feel nervous - just jump in and say hi.
Make an intro post and check the #gallavichintro tag to find fellow fans! Here’s the general Shameless version!
Like seriously just send a message or reply to a post. We’re here to have fun, the idea of new people is great because it means more engagement.
When I say people are nice, I mean it. I’ve been in so many different fandoms over 20+ years and this is genuinely the kindest group of people I’ve ever encountered online in a fandom space.
Give your blog an icon. People tend to assume that ones without are spam blogs and may block immediately. Here are some great icons you can use with credit: here / here / here
If you’d like a Gallavich banner for your blog, send me a message - I’d be so happy to make you one! I’ve got ones free to use here / here.
Please don’t steal gifs and repost them, here’s a great post explaining why and another one explaining why and how to use the gif search function! And another one explaining the gif search function.
Reblog content you enjoy and write in the tags or reply to the post - how much you liked something or if you have other thoughts…..creators love to hear this!
Use the tags. They’re the best way to get your posts noticed if you’re new- #gallavich #ian gallagher #mickey milkovich #ianxmickey any or all of these will work. When you make a post, you should see a little grey box that says something like add tags to help people find your post, just type in there. (You don’t need to use the # symbol. Tumblr automatically does that.)
There are so many brilliant active communities that you can take part in - I’ve done a roundup post here & I will update it with new communities.
If you feel creative? Got for it. Don’t worry about what people think, just share your work. Write that fic or headcanon or meta, draw that art, create that gifset, design that aesthetic piece, share that playlist. Chances are that a lot of people will enjoy your work!
Don’t feel shy about promoting your work either - tag it with #gallavich & the tags mentioned above.
Recommend what you’ve enjoyed! There is no time limit on sharing links to fic, art, headcanons, gifsets, posts of any kind…..reblog/share what you love and keep sharing it. Whether it’s brand new or years old, sharing the work is great idea.
Go back and explore things. Older fics on ao3, gifsets and art from years past, moodboards and headcanons that are years old. None of these things have an expiration date. So reblog them, share them, let people experience them for the first time and allow people to enjoy them for the 2nd/3rd/4th time.
Comment!! It’s such an important thing to do in fandom. Whether it’s on new work or old work, whether you write long comments or just a keyboard smash and emojis - it’s great way to share love to creators, to support/encourage/inspire them and to get involved in fandom. Check out Ian and Mickey’s guide to commenting and other posts about commenting: here // here // here
Share your ideas. Whether it’s headcanons or meta or fics or art, share it. Feel free to explore your ideas. There’s always room for discussion, analysis and creativity.
If you see ask memes or tag games going around, take part! Or even reblog one of these games and tag some people you’d like to get to know better! Don’t feel intimidated, it’s always nice to be tagged.
Keeping reblogging posts. Not just once or twice but again and again. The queue is there for a reason. And each time you do? You’re sharing it with your dash.
Remember, pretty much everyone starts out as a lurker and when it comes to being creative - everyone starts at the beginning. Those writers and artists and creators that you are in awe of? They all started out at square one. Everyone practices and creates over and over again, that’s how it goes. The more you write or draw or create, the better you get. And fandom loves to see it.
Need ideas or inspiration? I’ve got lots and lots of prompts for you!
This is a relatively small-ish fandom but it’s active and there is nothing nicer than new people joining, so don’t hesitate - jump in. It’s so much fun and we’d love you to join us! 💖
If anyone has any tips or encouragement they’d like to share, please reply to this post! 💖
And if you have any questions about using tumblr, send me an ask!

first line analysis - thanks @southsidestory !! will take any opportunity to talk about my writing (even though im in a slump)
RULES: post the first lines of your last 10 fics/chapters posted on AO3 (if you have less than 10 fics posted, post the first lines of all your fics) and try to draw some conclusions.
something so wretched about this (gallavich)
-> "Who was your first kiss?"
under a tin roof (gallavich)
-> The six-pack clinks as Mickey walks.
fluorescents (jack/mark, as you are)
-> "Hey, Jack."
of juniper and lamplight (stobin)
-> Steve's life is going to fall apart, he thinks.
oh, alright, fine (narlie)
-> Charlie is the coziest he's been possibly ever, he thinks.
a pocketful of mumbles (such are promises) (byler)
-> They're ten the first time.
robin buckley's problems (ronance)
-> "Hey, Robin - meet us at Steve's in maybe twenty minutes if you aren't doing anything."
need you like i need a gaping head wound (house md - julie wilson character study)
-> The day Julie knew was bitterly cold.
the grind (hilson)
-> It's a little past seven in the morning, by all means a typical Wednesday, and the Princeton Coffe House is dead.
in which sophie and howl wreck a wedding (howlsophie)
-> As the eldest, it was expected that Sophie would have trouble finding her way, with nobody to guide to or learn from.from.
conclusions: i like short and punchy, especially when it comes to dialogue. i do a lot of long winded monologuing in the bodies of fics but the exposition is pretty limited. also i need to stop starting multichaps because i don't finish them. im a big fan of "___ thinks"
open tag! play if you want!!! tag me i want to see
