shoutout to all the ftm/mltm marvel fic writers out there, I love all five of you❤️🩹
love all of you readers too xx
if this ain't a lover's spat...
okay we need to have an intervention.
i've noticed that people don't leave the same kind of unhinged compliments under fanfics that visual artists usually receive (eg, "i want to eat your art"), so i've come up with a list that you need to start employing when your friends send you their WIPs and when your favorites update on ao3 but you're having a hard time commenting something that sounds intelligent and you still want to support them
"you're like if [famos author] (eg, Victor Hugo if the fic is angst) was into [fandom]"
"well THIS has been added to my pre-sleep daydream schedule"
"this fic invaded my mind and consumed my brain like a spore"
"I'M LOSING SLEEP OVER THIS ONE, FOLKS"
"yOu'Ve AlReAdY lEfT kUdOs HeRe"
"this fic has me scratching at my yellow wallpaper, it's so good"
"this fic has me checking under my floorboards for the heart of a kind man i murdered, it's so good"
"i'm making my parents read this"
"i know only one chapter is out so far, but i'm going to print this out, staple it together, and put it on my bookshelf next to the canon material"
"this fic gave me another mental illness"
(you can only do this one once) "i made an ao3 account specifically to bookmark this"
"i'm going to print this out so i can eat the words on the paper"
and a couple that are just nice (without the feral nature):
"i made a custom playlist to listen to while i read this fic"
"this fic reminds me of [song]"
"i really liked the part where [x], it really stuck with me"
"i really liked this line, [quote the line,] it was so well-written!"
artists: draw fanart of the fic!! it doesn't matter if you think your art skills are good and it doesnt matter if it's just a sketch!! let the author see it!!
make a moodboard!! for the fic!! let the author see it!!
'this fic gave me another mental illness' has sent me.
i'd fall to the ground dead if i ever received any of these comments, and i mean that in a good way.
some more good ones, taken from my inbox:

trying to explain whitaker and langdon’s conversation!
I’ve seen a lot of people confused on Whitaker and Langdon’s conversation in the break room and the subtext is doing SO much work. On the surface it sounds like they’re just making a random Gilligan’s Island reference, and a lot of people are taking it at face value because they just don’t understand what’s happening (lol)
FOR CONTEXT: Gilligan’s Island is an old sitcom about a group of people stranded on an island after a boat trip goes wrong. Every character in the series has a very clearly defined role in the group.
When Whitaker brings up Skipper and Gilligan after Langdon calls him “little buddy,” he’s reacting to that exact idea of being placed into a predefined role. Even if Langdon doesn’t mean it in a cruel way, that kind of language still implies a hierarchy where one person gets to define the other.
Two episodes earlier (I think…?) Santos tells Whitaker about how Langdon, on her first day as a doctor, made her question her competence and whether she even belongs in the ER at all. So Whitaker is already primed to see a pattern where Langdon (intentionally or not) destabilizes people’s sense of where they stand in the hierarchy.
When Whitaker snaps, it’s him reacting to that pattern in real time. And it’s not just about his own interaction, it’s also about what has been happening to Santos because, remember, they’re FRIENDS and he’s looking out for her too.
When Langdon says “Okay, what part am I?” he’s trying to restore that kind of structured system where everyone has a clear, assigned role, specifically because that’s what he’s been trying to do this entire season; he’s been trying to find his role in the ER since last season, he had a definitive role—He was Robby’s golden boy. But Whitaker rejects that entirely with “Play whatever part you like, just don’t pick mine for me,” He is explicitly saying that Langdon doesn’t get to assign him a fixed identity or position in that hierarchy and that it didn’t matter where he, Langdon, fits in the hierarchy either.
ALSO, it’s really interesting is how they immediately start disagreeing on who fits into those roles in the actual ER. Langdon says Robby is the Skipper, which means he views Robby as the clear captain figure, the person at the top of the hierarchy who runs everything. Whitaker pushes back on that and says no, Robby is more like the Professor: someone highly skilled and important, but not necessarily the one actively steering the ship in real time. And Whitaker, instead, places Dana as the skipper, which reframes the authority completely. It suggests that, in practice, Dana is the one who actually keeps everything moving, coordinates chaos, and holds functional control over the environment, not just the person with the title.
writers, you can and should be proud of your fic even if you personally are not satisfied with it. because even if you think it's "not good", you can be proud of the fact that you wrote it and it's something you created. you can be proud of the fact it's not ai.
repeat after me, it's something you put your soul and dedication in — and that's something ai could never achieve.
reblog if you have found comfort in writing ♡
actually i will start crying again if I think about the fact that it really didn't take robby all that much to open up. that it really took just the slightest tap and he was breaking. duke really seeing him, fully acknowledging the severity of his shit, talking quiet, extending empathy, extending friendship and connection.
and it didn't take that fucking much. he didn't have to torture it out of Robby. he was just firm and kind. not beating around the bush like jack has done and not harsh like dana and not vague like cassie.
saying I see what you're doing. I know what you're thinking. are you sure?
and that's all it took to get a little more out of Robby. a moment of actual genuine vulnerability. a verbal admittance of how bad it's starting to get. how much he needs this hospital but how much it's killing him.
and it is partially because Robby is so tired, and it gets so hard. he's keeping up all his anger to mask the hurt but that's exhausting. and it's harder and harder to keep it back. so the second a listening ear is extended by someone who's been safe for him he's laying it out. oh Robby they could never make me hate you. what a deeply human character.
"is that your final lesson to these kids?"
is what's gonna make him stay. btw. you can see it on his face. that was the thing to say. Robby doesn't care about himself. although he's been very shit at showing it this shift, he does care about others. these are his people. this is his department. this hospital contains the "best things he's ever done."
he wants to leave it better than he found it, he wants his students to do better than him. but the implication of this being his "final lesson" is gutting. and that did get to him. oh, it pierced straight through. he's grappling with how tortuous it is to live in his mind and how badly he does not want to fail his students yet again, how deeply he cares about them. fuuuuckkkkk
yall don’t get it, dennis is robby. or at least who robby used to be.
robby used to be the guy who found purpose in being there for people on the worst days of their lives. he used to find meaning in being the one that helped you say goodbye to your father or your son or your brother.
he used to be the one comforting people in the ambulance bay, telling them to go home, that he can pick up the work load while they recover. they framed that shot the same way they framed the heather/robby confrontation for a reason.
but robby’s not that guy anymore. he doesn’t find fulfillment in this. he doesn’t do this because he likes being there for people, he does this because he feels he has the obligation to.
so when people complain about dennis not having a storyline this season, i don’t find that valid. dennis is showing us the beginning of robby’s story. he’s inserting himself into a family (janey and amy rhyming is so telling), he’s assuming responsibility for a child that isn’t biologically his, he’s falling into a work friendship with a deeply traumatized person (with scars on their leg). dennis’s future is also unfolding before our eyes. the dramatic tension that happens with his character is whether or not he will keep giving these pieces of himself like robby did. the question that dennis (as a dramatic device) poses is was there something that could’ve been done in the beginning to keep robby from becoming this or was it inevitable the whole time?
we’re watching dennis to see if he will crumble the same way, if the cycle will continue.
