i love the sbassa-verse b/c i can take the natural “why don’t they just TALK TO EACH OTHER” impulse and then show endless scenes in which people talking to each other has not made things better and in fact has made things worse

Apr. 27th, 2022 08:06 pmApparently on Ao3, the "Serial Killer" tags are a subset of the "Sociopathy" tags.
I don't know why but this bothers me.

Apr. 8th, 2022 07:24 pmThe Ao3 relationship type tagging system just...isn't good if you're writing about closeted trans people or characters with intentionally ambiguous gender identities.

Mar. 27th, 2022 01:05 amthe great tragedy of the world is that in order to get a nice stream of autistic omegaverse content, one has to read detroit: become human fanfiction.
i unironically thought that last one once
Mar. 21st, 2022 07:35 pmthere are two types of "graphic depictions of violence" users on ao3
> "well, i mentioned a character bleeding once, probably tag it just to be safe"
and
> "well, i only devote one and a half sentences to describing how a character's intestines look, so i'm not sure if it counts"

Feb. 13th, 2022 08:13 pmThinky thots time:
I am currently in a fandom that has multiple (a word which here means "more than one") trans characters, and me, as someone who writes transfic, is not thinking about writing fic about either of these characters. I am thinking about writing transfic for another character entirely.
And I've been thinking about why that is, and I just realized that I when I write trans characters, I would prefer them to have more personality than "is trans", which the trans characters from INSERT CANON NAME fail. Very, very miserably.

Nov. 30th, 2021 12:47 pmafter spending an unreasonably long time thinking about this, i think my final opinion on maps-the-jrock-fanfiction goes like this
as a psycho i'm delighted but as a sperg i'm offended

Nov. 5th, 2021 10:02 pmguess i'm just gonna port the vampire lore i made up for my jrock vampire au into my a3 one b/c my dhampir ideas (they're all developmentally disabled, have one enhanced physical ability/sense each, and have Big Cryptid Energy, sound like anyone in a3?) just make a lot of sense for this world, and combining it with my Headcanon Misumi Backstory That I Frequently Forget Isn't Canon (TL;DR- in between running away and winding up at mankai, misumi spent some time in a psych ward)

Jun. 9th, 2021 02:10 pmtragedy of the century- one of the ao3 users i'm subscribed to keeps writing a bunch of pregnancy kink A/B/O fic that updates pretty regularly...
for one of those 51-episode long C-dramas that i haven't watched.

Apr. 28th, 2021 07:52 pmit's kind of weird to look at my ao3 and most everything i've written is either fluff or porn, while anything i still have interest in- a fate we plucked unknowingly, a pretty girl followup- is the rare stuff that isn't fluff or porn and is mostly based around People Having A Bad Time
also both of my story ideas ("the oddballs plus sora/mayoi/subaru experience severe ableism and medical malpractice, also there's the worst, most dogfuck rapeworld version of omegaverse happening in the background" and "a3! characters are thrown into a prison city and forced to work out a society, also everyone suffers because they've become A/O and their bodies are changing in horrific-to-them ways") are also about People Having A Bad Time
(and three of those ideas are about gendered suffering as experienced by people who experience misogyny but aren't perceived to be women in the story's world. funny, that?)

Mar. 4th, 2021 10:28 ami just keep thinking about maps (the jrock fanfiction) over and over again and especially kai's portrayal because i mostly brushed it off like oh, yeah, he's sort of Ambiguously Developmentally Disabled and so he's Pure and Innocent and so i was like yeah yeah yeah, okay, i don't care that much
and then i stumbled across starving dogs always bite- which has an Ambiguously Developmentally Disabled protagonist and he's both A: an actual human being with thoughts in his head and not just something that exists in the vicinity of the protagonists and B: a bitter little cunt who lashes out at his shitty life and the shitty people in it
and I LOVE THAT and it's made me so much more aware of how inadequate and infantilizing kai's portrayal is and i just Have Some Feelings
i might want to reread maps again but it's like 70 chapters and i don't have that kind of time

Feb. 3rd, 2021 01:42 pmi have Weird Opinions about strange desires (the ruki/reita BDSM series) because while it was the first BDSM AU i actually really strongly liked, i also kind of hate it because it allowed me to realize why i didn't vibe with other BDSM fics, thereby making it harder for me to enjoy the subgenre in the future.

Jan. 12th, 2021 10:47 amthe GOM give off so many ND sympathy vibrations to me, and to be honest the main reason i've found myself bouncing off of a lot of KNB fic is because a lot of authors don't seem to be capable of replicating the dynamic that make these characters so infinitely interesting to me so i just wind up re-reading the same three fics over and over again

Jan. 10th, 2021 08:14 pmI'm thinking about the kinds of queerness that I like to see explored in fiction, and I keep coming back to this fucking Jrock Omegaverse fanfiction and one character from it in particular- Mitsuki.
(a note- in this post, i will be using the term "venusexual" to refer to omegas who are attracted to other omegas. this is a term i made up for my own omegaverse aus, also, i will be using the word "transmasculine" to refer a "trans-alphan"? identity.)

Dec. 3rd, 2020 01:16 pmJust in case you want to know how the BTS fanfiction community operates- here's what's happened to the 7 fic writers that I used to regularly read in that fandom:
> 2 of them got canceled off of the face of the Internet and no longer actively write
> 1 got canceled off of the face of the Internet but deleted their entire Internet presence to escape further harassment
> 1 decided that she wanted to file the serial numbers off of her most popular fic, and then also deleted her entire online presence
> 1 responded to a request to translate one of their fics into Russian with a massive temper tantrum and got canceled, but this time for good reasons
> 1 got into a massive blowout on Twitter with another trans man over whether or not it was okay for cis people to consume porn of pre-op trans men, so i stopped reading him on principle
> and the last one appears to have pivoted to writing in the ducktales fandom
am i cursed?
