sweets and tea is pretty good!! i recommend it

[artificialconfessions]

I love Ortega’s writing so much- she has such a unique thing to where you can just tell it’s hers!! It’s amazing really, but with that being said, I miss her Witney fics soo much, I don’t ship branjie so it’s been hard not seeing her on my feed lmao.

[artificialconfessions]

i must've missed that canon moment where brooke was a stone butch sugar mommy and vanjie was some kind of sex worker.

[artificialconfessions]

If people think branjie fics are all the same I recommend reading some of Kite’s work on Ao3. Very varied. Each fic is a plot that I’ve genuinely never read before. (aside from the Vegas fic, but even that is done very differently). It’s way too much of a blanket statement to say that all branjie fics are the same.

[artificialconfessions]

branjie fics tend to be similar because unlike most fanfics in this fandom, we get the privilege of working with canon. because of this, newer authors (with counts for most) tend to use this canon more often creating similar fics. if you relaxed your arsehole long enough to fucking read them, you might realise they all have their own merits. if you think there's a hole in the fandom - goddamn fill it.

[artificialconfessions]

But it's YOUR problem. It aint fuckin global warming. It is YOUR problem with Branjie fics. Again, if you have a problem with how people write Branjie fics...write your own.

[artificialconfessions]

it's a problem because aside from a few notable exceptions branjie fics are the most unoriginal in the fandom but are also the most popular at the moment so there's not much else to read

[artificialconfessions]

Don't read Branjie fics then?? Like?? How is that a problem?? Just stop reading them if you don't like how people write them?? Or, I dunno, just a thought, WRITE THEM YOURSELF

[artificialconfessions]

know how back when fpr was good raja and raven would get annoyed when they saw a queen wearing the same silhouette every week? that’s how i feel about pretty much every branjie fic. they’re all so boring and formulaic and the details may be slightly different but they all end up the same way and it’s frustrating as fuck.

[artificialconfessions]

So this blog dying already?

[artificialconfessions]

Idk why people like to defend purecamp that much tbh. Like she's this smol innocent bean free from any criticism.

[artificialconfessions]

I honestly think Veronica is such a hypocrite. She starts deleting fics that depict queens as abusers but allows fics like Malamente and Ultraviolence that include queens as murderers? I tried to send an ask in about it but she was extremely vague and she ignored my second ask so she clearly knows she’s being hypocritical but she doesn’t do anything about it. She is clearly favoritising certain writers which is just wrong.

[artificialconfessions]

kite and mac got a whole emoji code wtf

[artificialconfessions]

this is somehow weirder than a circlejerk

[artificialconfessions]

With all this discussion abt Mac, what want to know is what is the deal with her and Kite?

[artificialconfessions]

This blog isn't really too serious from what I've seen but I thought it'd be a good place to put this. I posted one fic and now I'm unable to write or post anything because in my head it sucked and that's that, I don't think it was the worst thing ever wrtiten but it just wasn't very high quality.

[artificialconfessions]

Can we give a standing ovation for Meggie and Mia who are writing a complete season of All Stars?? I love them with all my heart T h a n k Y o u - 💖
