hello, i am joining the bandwagon with my own two cents on how tumblr interactions have gone from shit to lower shit.
first of all, let me just stress how much i appreciate readers who interact with fanfics. you guys are the true mvpβs and i applaud you for doing godβs work. (also letβs be real a significant portion of those readers are fic writers themselves).
second of all, i want to say that iβm not trying to beΒ βungratefulβ or sound like a prick, i just see so many writers leave this site because they feel unappreciated, alone or they think that nobody enjoys the fics they work hard on.
honestly, there were/are times where i think if this is even worth it. i get so much enjoyment from this, itβs a hobby that allows me to be creative, to escape reality and have a little fun. yet i feel like what iβm doing is just good for nothing since it seems like people are allergic to me on this site.
it truly means a lot to us when you guys interact. it doesnβt even have to be much, just a short comment, but it can still make our day
now onto the ways you can support your fave writers:
1. interact with the fics β comment, reblog, send asks. trust me, you canβt go wrong with this one. donβt be afraid to send an incoherent wordspill or type out that essay in caps lock where you go nuts about your favorite scenes, comment on the characters and their development or compliment the authorβs writing style. again, i guarantee youβll receive answers that are similarly incoherent as the author tries to not lose their shit bcs what the fuck? someone is finally interacting with my stories
2. recommendations β you can rec fics to networks for various events, send your recs to your moots or maybe even to fic rec accounts who accept recommendations. even by reblogging - youβre already basically doing this. it can make our day when we see that someone recommended something we worked on to someone else :)
3. interaction β usually, most authors on here wouldnβt mind more asks that donβt even have to be about fics. you can ask how their day was, talk to them about a favorite book/movie/song literally whatever. i feel like i donβt really have much to say on this topic cause i donβt really get these types of asks :} but yeah, i think most of us would feel really touched if people wanted to talk to us outside of our writings. note: if youβre shy, you can go on anon :> itβs there for a reason :P
4. criticism β now be careful - this one is tricky. you should first make sure if the person is okay with you giving some constructive criticism. if it isnβt mentioned anywhere on their page/at the bottom of their fic, just ask. i for one wouldnβt mind hearing things likeΒ βjust a suggestion but i think you could work on your descriptions moreβ orΒ βbe careful - you often use the same words in one paragraphβ etc.
lastly, i wanted to stress that you shouldnβt force yourself per se to do these. nobody wanβt your feedback if it isnβt genuine. i just feel like people thinkΒ βoh well if i wonβt comment, iβm sure somebody else will-β bullshit! thatβs the problem here. this mindset is what has to change. if you want the writing community to not wither into dust, youβll have to give something. in this case itβs interactions and feedback.
i wonβt go into the details of how long it takes to write but as someone who writes primarily long fics, i can tell you itβs extremely time consuming. and i spent the past fifteen minutes typing this post instead of working on yellow wood @_@
so yeah, this is a desperate cry from me. iβm hoping that if youβre a silent reader/serial liker who doesnβt leave feedback, youβll learn something new here. thank you for reading so far and i hope you have a lovely day <3
what type of cottagecore are you? by cottagegrandma-
cottage academia!!
you're a cottagecore academic!! you love listening to the sound of rain and watching studio ghibli films!! you're quiet and rarely speak around people you don't know, but you're chaotic with your closest friends. you honestly aren't fond of studying, though you are smart and love romanticizing the arts and literature. you're energized once you're around nature, rain, and libraries, and you love the waft of coffee beans. you're in love with the moon, and read your flowery poetry to her every night from your cottage window. you're also a late-night snacker and love cheese. but know to get rest and sleep when you need to!! many think of you as interesting, since you're an elegant, coat-wearing hooman with HUGE mushroom earrings and flower crowns, so you may have a secret admirer write love letters to you in the future. don't stress too much, and continue being fabulous, king and queen.
Tagging; @hoboren @penny-quinn @kyomito @xaugust-rosesx @ddeonuism @taehyunsmine and whoever else that wants to join
It's so fun!! The questions were so sweet!! I loved it!! Thanks for the tag @highkeygolden
honeycore!!
you're gold honey!! you adore baking and cooking, and most definitely love the sweet taste of honey!! you love the warm and cozy way of life, and snuggly hugs are what you live for. you always express your love, and most likely have physical touch as one of your top love languages. your friends love you so much, and think of you as the introverted extrovert of the group you root for saving the bees!! you think they're cute, but you're still a teensy bit scared of them if they come near you. you're too kind, so you must be careful, as many may take advantage of you! but there's no need to worry, because you can simply smack those that do so with your big, wooden cooking spoon. you're still kind to those you dislike, for you fear upsetting anyone, no matter who they are. but know that it's okay to let go sometimes, and be true to yourself!! you're appreciated by many and definitely are the main character.
this is so adorable; slightly offended that i got grandmacore and then i remembered that i love my grandmother and that she is my absolute role model. also my back hurts a lot.
grandmacore!!
you're a grandma!! you love taking care of your loved ones and tending to your garden!! you're kind, warm, and giving to many, and people think of you as home. but you smack mean and rude people with your floral umbrella, and put on your fabulous granny sunhat after you're done. animals and creatures love you and come to you for your delicious home-cooking, as well as hoomans too!! your generosity brings light and hope to people's hearts, and your caring nature makes those who feel uncapable of love feel love. you're a funny story-teller, and people never get bored of you! you're a gentle hugger too and express love with your actions. know that thanks to you, you're the happiness in peoples' lives.

BEAUTIFUL PERSON AWARD! Once you are given this award youβre supposed to paste it in the asks of 8 people who deserve it. If you break the chain nothing happens, but it's sweet to know someone thinks youβre beautiful inside and out ππ
"I can't believe it! We're going for a stupid quiz competition instead of getting summer vacations!" Jimin groaned, resting her head in her hands.
"At least we get to go abroad! We'd be in Seoul all summer long otherwise," Aria urged, smiling at Jimin who looked like she would pull her hair out of its roots.
Similarly, a certain group of 7 boys were stressing over the Annual Decathlon they had to attend. "Jisung, Jeno and Jaemin are lucky. They're just coming for the school newspaper. No studying required." Renjun huffed, crossing his arms. Jisung shrugged, "Perks of being a photographer."
"You don't even need to come, why are you?" Donghyuck questioned. "You know well why he's coming," Chenle smirked, looking towards Aria slyly. "No way!" Mark screeched, drawing the rest of the team's attention to him. Sheepishly bowing his head in apology, he turned back to Jisung. "You like Aria?" he whispered questioningly.
Turning red, Jisung scratched the back of his neck, urging Mark to quiet down. "Since when?" Jaemin leaned forward in his seat. "Since Freshman year started," Chenle answered for him, earning a smack on his arm from an infuriated Jisung. "I'm not trusting you ever again," Jisung rolled his eyes.

if your application was unsuccessful, there may be one of the following issues:
you did not enter the correct member password
you did not follow the network or reblog the official post
the masterlist or username you provided in your application was invalid
you do not follow the rules of the network (for example, you are not kind, the only thing you post is smut for 02 liners, or your work is thought to not be your own)
you and yeonjun were sat comfortably on the couch, watching a movie along with the rest of his members. your boyfriend had his arms wrapped protectively around your waist and had his head placed on your chest. to you that didn't seem like the most comfortable position, but yeonjun seemed to love it. "puppy, are you sure you're comfortable?" you spoke, a little too loudly, before realising what you had said. yeonjun looked at you with wide eyes, a smile threatening to spread across his face. soon, yeonjun went bright red as you heard the members snickering blatantly at the nickname. "puppy? i'd have thought yeonjun hyung was dom-" beomgyu spoke, but was interrupted by the pillow hurtling towards his face. "i like puppy," yeonjun whispered in your ear once everyone had stopped teasing the two of you.
rest below the cut !
ππππππ.
calling soobin "bunny," wasn't an uncommon thing in your relationship; soobin loved when you called him that and was completely used to it. but using it in front of other's was always a red zoneβ seeing as it could be perceived as quite a sexual name, as well. so, when you called him bunny around his members when asking him to pass you your phone, he went completely stiff. "soobin?" you asked, confused why his ears had started to turn red. turning to your right, you saw yeonjun choking back belts of laughter. raising your eyebrow, you slowly realised you'd called him bunny. seeing soobin covering his face, as the younger members jeered and called him bunny as well, was probably the cutest thing you'd ever seen.
πππππππ
it had started as a joke once beomgyu had begun to grow his hair out. along with his hair, he had grown a certain amount of sass, leading you to call him princess whenever he'd flip his hair. however, 'princess,' became a common nickname for you two, and neither of you realised or said anything about it. "princess, here," you said, giving beomgyu a bottle of water once he finished their dance routine. unphased, he thanked you for the water, finishing most of it. "princess?" yeonjun spoke up. "huh?" beomgyu asked, looking towards him. "(y/n) calls you princess?" soobin continued. "oh, yeah," he shrugged. the boys were slightly confused, you could say.
πππππππ
taehyun listened to you complain about your classmate, passing comments about how she was way out of line, etc. "angel, you need to understand the intensity!" you groaned. hearing a splutter from your right, you turned your head, confused. "what?" "you call him angel?" kai asked you, chuckling as he chewed his food. going silent, you blushed slightly when you realised you'd called taehyun angel. feeling an arm wrap around you, you turned your head to your boyfriend. "call me that more often," taehyun nuzzled into your neck.
πππππππ πππ
"hi bambi," you greeted, leaning into kai's wide arms, as he let you inside the front door. "i missed you," he whined against the top of your head, waddling to the couch with you still in his arms. "he really does look like bambi," taehyun commented as kai plopped down on the couch with you, yelping as he heard taehyun. "why are you here?" kai blushed. "do you think i'd miss finding out what (y/n)'s nickname for you is?" taehyun chuckled. groaning, kai begged him not to tell the rest, even offering to do his laundry. "deal!" taehyun said, leaving the living room. "do you not like bambi?" you asked, pouting. "no! of course i do," kai assured you, "i just don't want anyone else to call me that." kai placed a peck on your cheek before taking you back into his arms and squeezing you with all his might.

trope/au. established relationship, late night fluff.
members/characters. jake (enhypen) x gn!reader.
you and jake lay in your bed, tangled with each other. jake's arm was sprawled over your waist, while your head was buried comfortably in his chest, breathing his scent at the ungodly hours of the morning. "jake?" you asked softly, wondering if he was awake as well. a soft hum sounded through his chest, making your head vibrate slightly. giggling at the feeling, you pulled away from his chest and looked at him.
"what's up?" he asked, raking his fingers through your hair. you shook your head, leaning in and placing multiple, wet kisses around his face, making him cringe and whine. as you laughed, jake looked at you with the same affection you had in your gaze. "i love you," he mumbled against your cheek. "i love your nose," you said back. "what?" he asked, confused, "my nose?"
"yeah, you have a really pretty nose." you traced your finger down his nose bridge, before jokingly squeezing it, making him cry out in pain as your finger nails dug into his skin. giggling you placed a kiss where your nails had marked him, humming out an apology.
"i want to sleep," he pouted. "then sleep," you replied, kissing his sulky mouth. jake shook his head, his long hair slightly flopping. in turn, you cooed, raking your fingers through his overgrown hair which fell at his neck. humming in satisfaction, he threw his leg over your waist, clinging to you like a koala. "you're such a big baby," you said, with hearts in your eyes as you trapped him in a tight hug. "i want to spend time with you," he said, as his reason not to sleep.
you shook your head. "we can do that tomorrow," you said scratching him under his chin. "go to sleep," you assured. earning a yawn from jake, you smiled in satisfaction as he leaned his head in the crook of your neck and fell asleep soon after. placing a long kiss on the top of his head, you soon fell into a state of deep slumber, as well.
