"What's happening?" asks the lone Raiders fan that Shane has found himself next to, a young woman with St. Simone on the back of her black and gold jersey. Her friend, a handsome woman in Metros' blues, explains, "Une malédiction. A curse." Her Québécois accent lifts the ends of her sentences into a lilting melody. "Oh." The Raiders fan frowns, concerned. "Does someone have it out for Hollander? Shouldn't sporting arenas be protected against that?" Her friend laughs. "It's Centre Bell itself who has it out for Hollander. You've never heard the story about the TD Garden trying to eat Magic Johnson?"

Or; The Bell Centre carries a hundred years of hockey and all of its grudges. Ilya must traverse its depths to save Shane.

(The fic where hockey and Montréal love Shane back)

hi hello how do you feel about fanfiction of your fanfiction because I just finished dustbowl and it has consumed me and i was wondering if you would be ok with me writing it out? obviously i wouldn't write any of the fic ideas you mentioned in any of your notes or the directors cut bc those are yours but also so is this au and i don't want to overstep. regardless, thank you so so much for putting this fic out into the world!!

Hi, thank you for asking. I'm very protective of dust bowl and I wouldn't want people to write fanfiction of it. If you want to write your own trans woman Shane fic that's canon compliant, I of course encourage that but I really don't feel comfortable with this. Thank you again for asking and I hope you have a lovely day ^^

hiiiiii so 2 things:

I've unprivated all of my heated rivalry fic. it's all public. go crazy!

I got hit with a bill for school (i'm a grad student) that's real fucking steep. I can afford it, but it'd leave me effectively broke for the rest of the month. if you appreciate my fics and if you're willing and able to, i'd appreciate it if you could send $5 my way.

I'm sure someone here will understand this

[berrykewpie]

it makes me so angry that people are harassing you and other fic writers. Idk the details bc I do not have twitter but I’m so sorry ppl took a fun, creative outlet and made it a source of stress. I love your work and will continue to read your fics for other fandoms simply bc I am obsessed with your writing style.

Thank you for your concern anon but I want to be incredibly clear: I was never harassed to the extent that other authors have been. I’ve gotten weird anons on twitter via my revospring askbox but I have not been brigaded or gossiped about. However, even though I was not directly harrassed, having the threat of harassment loom over your head is pretty stressful, which was one of the many factors that lead to me privating fic.

I’ll be transparent here and say that I’ve been heavily considering orphaning a select few of my fics (dust bowl, cloche, and plausibly deniable, as those are the three I’m most proud of and just keeping the rest permanently private. I have no desire to write for heated rivalry anymore, but I haven’t gone ahead with this because I’m still unsure about having my fic in the public eye even with my name removed.

To be quite honest, I kind of hate the “publicity” (for lack of better term) that my fic has gotten me. It’s hopelessly whiny, I know, but I like linking social media accounts at the end of my fic for people to engage with me. But when that leads to expectations of more I get really unsettled. Like, more than anything right now I wanna publish VTuber fic and have my public VTuber account but I feel like I Can’t because that’s also linked to my heated rivalry stuff. All of this is of course my own doing but you know. I’m just whining

[berrykewpie]

For the record, I've made cloche, plausibly deniable and dust bowl public fics again. I'll likely do the same with my other HR fic that aren't chaptered.

I'm mostly not going to engage with HR from now on. Partly bc the hyperfixation has released me, but also because I don't find this fandom to be fun anymore. It's pretty cut throat. This tumblr will be used for reblogging whatever fanart I wanna see :)

saw a tweet that said "THE WIZARD OF OZ WAS THE FIRST VTUBER. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THIS INFORMATION." and thought of you

An incredible legacy/reputation I'm acruing

No. I'm fine, really. I'm just ugly crying about Carroll crater. A bright spot on the far side of the moon. I'm fine. I'll stop crying eventually.

What football will look like in the future

Something is terribly wrong. Something is terribly wrong. Something is terribly wrong. Something is terribly wrong.

Jon Bois announces:

50007: AN AMERICAN FOOTBALL ODYSSEY

[beguilingcorpse]

actively finding out that there are people out there who have read 17776 but skimmed all the football parts. what do you mean. what do you mean. the whole thing is football. what do you mean. it’s not even like a play by play of modern american football it’s literally goofy. you skimmed the bit where people fling themselves into tornadoes? you skimmed the bit where they accidentally created a geologically impassable field? you skimmed GAME 27??? ENGAGE WITH WONDER AND CURIOSITY TOWARDS THINGS YOU MIGHT OTHERWISE ASSUME YOU ARE UNINTERESTED IN. YOU ARE ACTIVELY DEPRIVING YOURSELF OF THE NARRATIVE YOU’VE CHOSEN TO READ. YOU ARE ACTIVELY DEPRIVING YOURSELF OF THE EXPERIENCE OF DISCOVERY. READ THE FOOTBALL PARTS

happy forever, everybody

Akane-banashi is such a funny story in how it treats the father. Everyone is constantly acting and talking like the father was killed by the enemy ninja village or an evil stand user or something, but he's fine. Like, he's just working a normal office job after quitting rakugo, he comes home to his wife and daughter every evening and stuff. But then you get a scene where Akane is "time traveling" to have a drink with her father to get to know him better. Like, he'll be home from his job in a couple hours, you can't talk to him then. No need to use you rokugo jutsu to summon his spirit from the afterlife lol.

[tum-ume]

go read akane banashi
