with ao3 down i hope this reminds us of what a fanfic-less existence looks like. don’t take it for granted! because it sucks not to have it.

fanfic would not exist without the hours of free labour from fanfic writers and volunteer staff. donate to otw if you have the means. taking a second to give kudos is nothing compared to months of work for writers. a comment will probably make their whole day! sharing and reblogging spreads their work. it’s so discouraging when you give your heart to something, only to receive nothing in return.

support fandom creators and staff. they are the heartbeat of everything we enjoy.

I rock up to strip poker night wearing a t-shirt with an image of a Russian nesting doll on it. When I lose my first hand, I take it off to reveal I was wearing a second shirt underneath with a smaller but otherwise identical print. After the sixth shirt I am thrown out of strip poker night.

no but that fight, THAT FIGHT! that's the crux of it, of their respective sugden issues™. robert's spent his entire life making the best of it because he knew he couldn't count on anyone but himself until aaron. nobody chose him, even if he did try, if he helped, if he did the best he could pulling people out of burning cars he'd still be sent away, have to scrape to make the best of it.

vic has lived surrounded by family and friends, who always think they know what's best for her, who love her in a way that's walls closing in. and when she tries to make her own decisions they make them for her and get sent away, and she ends up alone. clinging to the people she has left, who still want to make choices for her, but she's making the best of it.

she loves robert but she wants to fend for herself because no one ever lets her, and robert loves her and wants to save her because he had to fend for himself. they want to fight a family curse that's actually just living some of the life the other was forced to.

Theory and criticism are basically real person fiction, if you think about it...

the thing is vic and rob are fundamentally such different character types. vic is frankly too moral and self-righteous for the soap world whereas robert and his grey morals fit perfectly the genre and that makes him a perfect soap character

and from robert's perfect soap character pov i get that he feels like he's always taking risks and protecting his sister and that she never recognises that and doesn't give him the same kind of loyalty

but from a normal person perspective she is so valid to point out that he's always putting her in situations she didn't ask for! he's always rushing to make choices for her and about her

and in the end they will always love each other deeply but there's always gonna be that tension between them and it's good to see it addressed! i love them ❤️

"but you never choose me. and i wish just this once that you would" right now this means choose me over your guilt, over protecting moira. but it also means choose me over john, over diane, over andy. choose me over the picture dad painted of me. choose me first.

oh rob 🥺
