Not really one to watch VTubers but I find him hilarious
This is also officially my first fanart of someone who’s actually alive (even if it’s just his avatar)
Anyways Kamiya-sama thanks for making my last semester in uni better by making constantly laugh!
Idk if you gonna see this but still. Thanks
I think a big part of why I read way more fanfiction than books is that there’s just a hell of a lot less exposition
the first 10 pages of most books are always “these are the main characters and here’s some background on each of them and this is the setting etc etc” and it’s such a fucking hassle getting to the plot sometimes
fanfic is just like “fuck it you know all of this already let’s go”
Same here but there’s actually a point here of well written exposition.
Take AUs for example. Even in the most complicated, as-far-removed-from-canon settings we get at most a single paragraph before the actual fic where the author gives us a quick rundown of the rules for that universe. The rest we are left to figure out on our own and it works.
We’re not spoon fed every trivial detail when all we want is to get to the plot. Everything that’s important is said at the moment it is important, not sooner not later.
Especially in long fics characters often take on such a unique characterisation that you get to know them all over again but the readers do so organically, in the situations that define those characters as they happen.
Same with looks. The fic author generally assumes the readers know what the characters look like and don’t spend paragraphs describing them, and only bring it up when it fits the plot.
I’ve read a few fanfics from fandoms I’ve never been in and surprisingly it still worked out. I had generally a good idea of who these people were, what they did where and why and how they worked together.
Point is, if you’re a writer writing original fiction, pretend it’s fanfic and everyone knows your setting and characters already. That way you’ll only have to add a few details if and when your beta readers mention needing more information and chances are they won’t need a lot.

Acceptance is something everyone wants. To be fully accepted as who you are is the greatest gift one can receive.
Pride month is coming to an end. This is a late tribute in celebration of the month where the third genders are celebrated.
She was nervous. She does not think she can do this.
Her mental plan has gone to shambles.
She wonders where all her courage went. Where all her internal prep talk went.
She can not do this. She’s scared out of her wits.
But she has to.
The moment she stepped into the room, she knew she cannot turn back anymore.
She takes a deep breath. She can do this.
She’s scared.
She starts talking. They stare at her. All the words she seems to have forgotten has returned full force. She talks and talks and talks. She can’t stop anymore.
She pauses. She looks at them. Hopeful. She continues.
By the time she finished, there are set streaks on her cheeks. She wills them to stop, hastily wipes them on her sleeve.
She refuses to look at them, scared of what she might find.
Disappointment? Anger? Disgust?
She looks up.
She doesn’t see any of that. Instead, she sees smiles.
They hug her. Tells her it’s okay. That everything will be fine. She hugs back.
She feels wetness on her cheeks once more. This time, she doesn’t stop it.
She lets it all out. As if a dam finally broke.
All the emotions she’s been trying to bottle up has broken free.
