I am proud to announce that I am finally beginning work on my full Power Rangers rewrite. And I have a projected publishing date for the first chapter of the newly named Power Rangers Rebirth Project...

August 28th, 2026, exactly 33 years after the original airing of Day of the Dumpster, will be the date I release the first chapter of the PRRP, in the Mighty Morphin' era of my reboot. Keep an eye out for Chapter One: Day of the Dumpster

Hello, you seem like a forerunner for the Emmajean faith. What are some good fanfics I can read, if you have any suggestions. I love your art.

Thank you!

Forerunner for the Emmajean faith?? Oh my god, I’m blushing o///o And thank you!! <3

And why yes, do I have a few fic recommendations for you~

Introspective: Emma Frost - The_Anxious_Chords01: I think this is my all-time favourite Emmajean fic. The author just sinks their nails into everything Emma Frost and tears it apart with such delicious purpose. They simply understand Emma, especially from Jean’s eyes, and it’s beautiful.

put your awful heart to song - Euphorion: This fic is as much an Emmajean fic as it is an Emmadelyne one. It breaks down the resurrection of Maddie on Krakoa so beautifully, and the relationship between Jeanie and her (and Em). 10/10 recommend.

I Dream a Little Dream of You - Tamoline: Mind-fuckery and delicious angst. Jean is haunted by Emma, and that’s all you need to know. My heart hurt after this one.

Immaculate Hearts - Antonier: Less of an Emmajean, more focused on Emma and her Cuckoos (the Three-In-One specifically), and a wonderfully amazing dive into that side of her. I adore Emma as a mother, and this fic hurts in all the right places.

There Are No Words For How Much I Hate You - AgathionWrites: The nastiest, hottest psychic dick measuring contest smut fic this side of the universe. It’s so good. I’m obsessed.

Do you love Cassandra Cain? Do you think she deserves good things, like fun hobbies, and friendship, and rest? WELL, SHE DOES NOT AGREE! If you think Cass's favorite activity is torturing herself even in the most mundane situations, I would love to recommend you:

you do not have to be good, by me on ao3!!!

well, what's this fic about? Good question! To answer: Cassandra Cain learns how to knit. Yeah, that's pretty much it. The entire fic is about learning how to knit. I mean, it's about a lot more than knitting, but it's also entirely about knitting. This is a sequel to tell me about despair yours, and I will tell you mine, which has Cass repeatedly asking the question: Why do you want to die? This sequel is about finding and answering several more questions, including but not limited to: How do you knit? Does Cass deserve to rest? What's a purl? Does she deserve to be loved? What's a good beginner knitting skill tree? Can she ever be more than her greatest regrets? How do you knit in the round? How do you knit a sock? and most importantly, why do you want to live?

Ode to the Ocean:A manifesto on the transfemininity of Percy Jackson

Percy Jackson was created with the purpose of personifying outcasts who are criminalized on baseless contradictory and discriminatory assumptions,accusations and rethoric.In other words,reactionary politics towards minorities.Percy is canonically neurodivergent,mentally ill and poor,shown through explicit adhd and dyslexia,implied bpd and ptsd and raised in a lowrent urban apartment complex in El Barrio,Manhattan,New York.Due to the last point and Percy's personal experiences and mannerisms and habits and interests,it's popular to interpret Percy as afrolatino by death of the author and i absolutely agree Percy is black-coded as a black woman who's always seen himself in Percy and knows so many other black people who relate to Percy as well and even people who know Pjo purely via cultural osmosis share the same opinion thanks to knowing the basics of Percy's character.But i've always had an additional view on Percy that really tied it all together to me,that felt like Percy at the fullest

Her status as a 'man' is obligatory in her mind,something she sees as her default on no reason other than she is amab and finds no joy in.Multiple scenes indicate her gender presentation is a performance she puts on to fit in and not be made fun of and as self-propection.Her usual outfits are her Camp Half-Blood t-shirt,jeans and sneakers and sometimes a blue hoodie.Inspite of this,she's also punk and could very easily just go to thrift stores and learn diy to dress the part and we're shown she thinks punk fashion is cooler than her canon style and that Percy is insecure in her apperance,thus comes the logical conclusion she wears baggy gender neutral clothes to downplay her dysphoria and feels bad thinking she can't 'pull off' femininine aesthetics.She expresses basically the same idea in her narration in regards to gender,that she is 'an idiot boy who dosen't understand women' yet we clearly see this isn't the case in her interactions with and relathionships to the other women in the series,a stand out example occuring as she muses over 'not knowing how talk to girls' even though she had more female friends than male ones(the gender ratio evenend out in Hoo).Times she dosen't actually understand for real are ones refering to cisheteronormativity and faux-feminism,not girlhood itself

She loves women,as people,their beauty,the bits and nooks that come with womanhood.Very purposefully,she was written as in awe of and admiring female characters both romantically and platonically and them being girls specifically is a part of it proven by patterns and terms used.She never shows aversion to lack of masculinity,Clarisse calls her 'Prissy' to emasculate her yet she never tells her to stop,she takes no problem with Grover's 'wimp' status,she refuses to live up to the ideallic 'real man' a signficant amount of the cast attempt to turn her into.In fact,Percy resisting against male expectations and rejecting her 'destiny' coming with a lot of toxic masculinity to it is half the first series' themes

There is fantastical evidence Percy is an egg,three pieces of it to boot!(Motherfuck the big three,it's just big she!).The Titan's Curse revolved around Percy proving herself unlike men to The Hunters of Artemis,a female exclusive transfem and woc inclusive group that in the context of greek mythology and ancient greek culture are slang for lesbians and formed to protect women from the patriarchy,and she succeeded in a surprisingly well-written way.She was setup as a red herring(or would she be a blueback herring? /silly)for The Hero of The Great Prophecy despite fufilling every requirement for it in five books and for four years straight and the prophecy used male pronouns for The Hero.And The Amazons,another historical mythological wlw group,respected her after she proved herself to them too

Further into these,near the end of the same Amazons featuring book,a little New Rome girl says she wants to be Percy Jackson when she grows up and Hazel aka baby transbian supreme,who spent the previous parts of the installment bonding with Percy and recovering her lost to misogynoir and adultification trauma childhood largely getting adopted and befriended by her,responds 'That's a good thing to be' and the HOA centric book played Percy and Thalia who is quite transfem-coded in her own equal right but in a butch/stud flavour to contrast Percy's femme swag as so similar they ended up clashing until they worked together on Percy's girl quest and found common ground and started bickering as close friends rather than the petty conflict from before and this one is a silly joke but in a sidebook,them ft.Nico go out for cheeseburgers in the middle of the night and the alt clocky trans audhd friend group vibes went crazy.Speaking of Nico and Percy talk i.e the best subject in 'Percy and male characters' schoolastics,Nico's feelings towards Percy absolutely further prove her tgirl swag and as a really good bonus,matches her to his tboy swag.We love transgender found siblings🩶

Nico is stated to have been attracted to Percy based on idealizing her as a man she isn't,never was,dosen't want to be and never will or could be.But he cares for her outside of it and thinks positively of her no matter how much he tried to hate her as much as he hated himself and they genuinely enjoy hanging out and can be good for eachother when his misdirected crush isn't ruining them and this is the sole reason they couldn't be as close as they wanted to be.Percy feels the need to look out for and be there for Nico on natural protective and nurturing instincts she developed as a defense mechanism and passed down to her by Sally's raising respectively and she does NOT hate him nor resent him

They act like a regular eldest daughter and middle brother as much as comes with their trauma and i'm VERY weirded out at the insinuation Percy getting annoyed with her kid brother/pseudo-son figure and keeping it to herself to not hurt his feelings and lashing out against him once when she was fifteen over a confusion that made her think he set her up to be deadass tortured and murdered means she's abusive to him.Both of them did nothing wrong and deserved to not be world's apart but not in heart any longer than they were forced to and the year skip inbetween Botl and Tlo was the perfect opportunity to fill in the gaps,by which i mean they should've spent it reconnecting and acting like best friends forever.Nico and Percy were eachother's whole world and their heart to heart set to blue birthday cake and Percy's punk rock music tastes was the start of something old yet something new.They're family by choice,not by half their blood,and Percy is the mom to Nico Sally was to her and that Maria could've been to him and she noticed this in his intro book as she fussed over him and what he was wearing(his Capture The Flag armor and she said she 'sounded like her mom')

Percy and Sally stood against The Man with only themselves to hold for the longest time.Against society,against men in power and against the monster in their home present long before Hades sent a Fury Percy's way.Sally started cooking blue food as a symbol of resistance at their at-home monster telling her no such thing was possible,blue in their culture representative of masculinity and maleness yet to Percy,blue is an inherent connection to femininity and motherhood in the face of male abuse and a system that wants her to leave everything making her who she is so she can be 'normal'.Normalcy has never been an option nor a grantable wish for Percy.She is unable to even act normal and she dosen't even 'look' normal according to mortals and most of book cast.It varies wether it's insulting her or finding her attractive and i want to point a very specific eyebrow raising example:Piper's first in-person meeting description of Percy

It got her thrown a hatewave by basic Pjo fans but along with the hilarity of the contrast to hers and the ones by others and applying her eventual comphet lesbian arc,it strikes very strongly as accidental commentary on how Percy is percieved as a lot more masculine than she actually is,Piper was a baby butch in her introduction and is a brown native/cherokee woman so ofc she is a good person to take into account's thoughts on gender and the intersectionalism of it in the eyes of white cultures vs cultures of color and cishet gender standards vs queer gender standards.She took in her apperance and didn't get what the (implied cishet!) kids at their camp meant by how 'manly' Percy Jackson is in their eyes and in terms of masculinity,said she's 'Unimpressive' and the 'Well' acompanied by various periods pre-the descriptor that launched a thousand pick mes was giving she wasn't insulting her but simply found her not suited to her taste i.e Piper is butch4butch and she's based asf for it.Quite sad their contrasts weren't expanded on,Piper and Percy would've been an iconic 'tomboy and girly girl friendship but they're both baddies' duo :/ In our hearts Percy taught Piper to skateboard and shares her blue snacks with her and Piper's surfer girl status inspired Percy to join the swim team at Goode High in her senior year and Piper used her unwanted knowledge of how to present femininely to lend Percy a hand and goes without saying she's a trans girl as well.Piper's audhd transfem tomboy swag is so good and her haters are just mad she did all the stuff white girl protagonists of the time did but as a woc and not a sidelined sidekick

Percy is percieved as a cis man and it impacts the in-universe treatment of her by the narrative and the rest of the characters.Percy is viewed as threatning and imposing on the basis she is amab and looks it as a result of still not cracking and needing to refuse herself stealth to not destroy her self-esteem worse than ever.Percy also looks exactly like Poseidon and is afraid she'll turn into her father as she grows older and she's objectively a lot like him except she lacks the male part.As the gender and the social class and the oppression fixation.Like her transfeminine gender writings,Percy won't ever be the kind of person to sellout and give up on her anarchistic nature to gain strength and powerful titles geared into the system as concretely proven by fantastical elements-She didn't one time even vaguely consider taking Zeus' Master Bolt and Hades' Helm of Darkness in Tlt and it is alluded to godly items carry proporties tempting anyone near them to take them for their own gain and a canonical Kane Chronicles crossover short story shows us Percy is immune to direct corruptive influence by gods too without even needing to try to resist,because they simply don't work on her at all.An overarching constant theme to Percy is she's not what people think of her or mold her to be,to harm her or in an incorrect image of who Percy is.The gods' abuse of her was to harm her and turn her into them and Nico and the half-blood campers misenterpretation of Percy was mythologizing her although obviously they genuinely love her and had good intentions

But she's not a hero,because calling yourself a hero makes you self-mythologizing and she's a heroine,because her heroism ties to the transfeminine and the unmasculine.Percy's full birth name is Perseus,a name brought on in hopes of her achiving a positive sort of classical masculinity in her heroic tactics and adventures and Percy hates it as she perfers a gender neutral nickname and the ones who adress Percy by her complete first name consist solely of her enemies and if you think about it,'Perseus' can easily be thought of as using Percy's boy name over the name she goes by and tons of irl fems regardless of agab share the name Percy and consider it unconventionally girly.Fittingly enough,Percy qualifies for 'unconventionally girly' and Persephone exists in her universe,Persephone is also a can-be-shortend-to-Percy name and she likes her since she's different from male half-bloods.'The sea does not like to be restrained' rings off the same vibes as Persephone's versatile personality,powers and lore so it would be the perfect new name for Percy and a good reason to have them bond as a solid explaination to her chosen name.'Perse' is a greek names moniker translating to 'Destroyer' so insert obligatory clever and original joke involving Percy realistically listening to My Chemical Romance/Mcr and the song Destroya

Rachel and Percy are hard to not buy as two queer girls who'd never been close to another queer girl before and forming a two peas in a pod dynamic to cope with the struggles coming with it.Y'all love queer-coded m/f until the queer-coding is they're not m/f and i mean romantic shipping AND platonic shipping.Demonizing and mocking Rachel is fucking heinous and reflective of the widespread internalized misogyny in the Pjo fanbase.Her feelings for Percy weren't one-sided,they were either NO sided or Percy was the one-sided crusher.It was honestly hard to tell and it enchances their art hoe frizzy activist neurotic lesbian and jaded alternative hardcore with a sweet and gooey inside trans team mom subtext as 'do i want her or are we just a special type of attached?' is a near universal wlw/transfem besties experience.Rachel is one of the most interesting,complex and underrated members of the Percyverse lineup and added actual queer-coding to Percy on top of how good she is to her and their off the charts organic chemistry,not assaulting her and saying creepy weird shit to her like the fugly raggedy dudes y'all gaslight yourselves into thinking were flirting with her or that she was into it and then entered mass hysteria when the official website called her 'tragically straight'.Y'all are corny AND dogs,that's how lame you are.Rachel Elizabeth Dare 5ever and i bet she beats people up for dissing Percy and has done her own studies on transmisogyny to do transfeminist acitivism and none asking was needed on Miss Jackson's part

Notably,Percy is a sea type mc and you'll notice they usually tend to be intentionally female by their creators as the sea is the element of femininity.Folklore,religion and mythology present water motifs,powers and aesthetics as a part of women and their genders culturally across a veryyyyyyy numerous part of the world.Combined with Percy's refusal of masculinity and parting of manhood as a concept in every form minus default gender for personal safety and trauma not letting her think too hard on how to uncover and create her own personhood outside of what everybody else needs(or 'needs',according to their personal blights and disregardment of Percy's feelings for their own benefactoring,emotional or structural),sea based femininity is perfect for Percy and it's an 'huh....well,would you look at that.bizzarely feels intentional' moment connecting the dots between Percy's accidental trans woman narrative and basically all the other major players in 2000s-2010s sea type fiction being unambigiously women.Add her to the club,she missed out on signups but they're always accepting new members

Her singing voice is bad according to a bunch of judgemental campers but we don't get a followup to prove it and she's the daughter of the sea god so it's more likely her allegedly 'ugly' singing is just non-transfems bullying her over sounding 'weird',her white streak can function as a twist on the 'alt girl with unnaturally colored hair streaks' and a pun by saying she has a supernaturally colored streak in her hair,she's a superhero comics nerd who read the Guardians Of The Galaxy comics before the Mcu got their hands on them and throws Superman and Spiderman refs like the dorkgirl she is,she crashed out and leaned on extensive Animal Crossing time,she's audhd and the autism is undiagnosed and dismissed as 'he's built different than other guys,he's just one of the good ones' yet belittled and weaponized against her and given backhanded compliments nonstop,she's a punk rocker babe,her reputation is bad and her street cred is endless,she loves greasy fast food and 'childish' desserts/sweets,her sense of humor is rooted in soothing physical pain from beatings and emotional pain from violent words,she's a mama's girl and her mama's girl and a deadbeat daughter to her deadbeat dad and an eldest sister to her Peanut(Tyson)and her Little Man(Nico)and her Hazelnut(Hazel)and her Destello(Estelle),she's mean and wears her heart on her sleeve but she had to be and her screams came to be and don't cease yet she refused to leave and she's not as she seems to have been deemed

Percy Jackson is an outcast,a misfit,an innocent,an instigator,an exception,a punk,normies' worst nightmare,weirdos' favorite person and the gods' marytr.She was created on the purpose of paragoning all this too.She's as deep as the entire sea,she IS the sea and we call the sea 'she'.Percy is the sea,it runs coursing through her blood and she is a half-blood through Poseidon but she's a girl because she's Percy Jackson.She didn't want to be a half-blood and she didn't mean for her nose to bleed out for Gaea but at the end of it all,she can choose all she wanted.Everything would come to her in peace and fall to pieces she asked to be given in her hands if she let go of trying to be a good son and 'Percy Jackson' meant 'Ocean Girl'

I came up with a fic idea

[orlissa]

Hi,

It’s your friendly neighbor fanfic author here. In the light of this apparent new trend of people feeding unfinished fics to AI to get an “ending,” and some people even talking about “blanket permissions,” let me just say this:

I EXPLICITLY FORBID ANYONE TO FEED MY FICS TO AI. DUDE, THAT IS ABOUT THE LEAST RESPECTFUL THING YOU CAN DO. IF YOU DO IT, SHALL YOU BE EXCOMMUNICATED FROM YOUR FANDOM AND WALK ON LEGOS BAREFOOT TILL THE END OF DAYS.

That is my anti-permission.

Thank you for your attention.

[headspacedad]

Consider this my notice as well.  I do not give permission for ANY of my work to be fed into an AI.  If I wrote the words, consider this my notification.  NONE of my words belong in the algorithm of a computer trying to replace me.

[yelmor-boots]

same here

if you ever feed my art or my writing into AI, you’ve officially disrespected me and the fandom as a whole and i want nothing to do with you. thanks <3

[the-kittens-of-vol-tron]

Same for my work! You don’t have permission to use my work to feed to AI

[studiorat]

Same. And if I find out you have you’re getting blocked from everything forever.

[sainamoonshine]

If I find out you fed my work into AI I consider it blanket permission to beat you to death with my bare hands

[intellectualbrainrot]

Same here!

[ember-writes-occasionally]

Agreed.

[kpforpresident]

Prompt idea! The first 300 words of an AU you've never written for before 👀

Lexa’s left eye twitches irritability as she once again feels fat water droplets spray against her feet, interrupting the entirely pleasant nap she’d been having, where she and Ali Krieger had been having a tasteful yet romantic dinner somewhere in the French countryside. Sitting up and shoving her large sunglasses off her eyes with one annoyed swoop, she blinks against the suddenly bright rays of sun that crowd her vision.

It was the perfect pool day at  Polis’s community pool- bright, cerulean sky, a soft, warm breeze, and the temperatures teetering just under 90 degrees. Lexa had seized the chance to sunbathe and read for a few hours on her day off work, shut off her pager, and practically skipped down the street to get settled on a lounger, ready to sip ice water and read sapphic smut until her eyes crossed, all while solidifying her tan in the teeniest bikini she owned.

However, for the past thirty minutes, some little snotty-nosed kid (probably un-supervised and just itching to cause mischief), had been sporadically sending showers of water arching through the air to mist Lexa as she sat innocently in her perfectly positioned chair, placed specifically to get the maximum amount of afternoon sunshine possible. It’s not that Lexa didn’t like kids- she adored Raven and Anya’s adopted son, Aden, with every fiber of her being. However, random children in the general public? Lexa generally avoided them, finding them sticky, whiny, and rude.

Another scattered shower of chlorinated water doused her feet as she felt her patience waning rapidly. Standing up, she felt her eyebrows slide into a glower as she searched for the culprit. Seeing a dark-haired little girl pop up like a seal from the bottom of the pool, a bright smile stretching across her face as she triumphantly popped up, water frisbee in hand, Lexa leveled a finger at the kid, whose smile quickly vanished as she took in Lexa, towering over her on the pool deck, clad in a black swimsuit.

“It’s rude to splash strangers, you know-“ Lexa had begun to grumble indignantly to the little kid, eyes searching for the parent of this clear mischief maker, when the most beautiful woman Lexa had even laid eyes upon swam up beside the little girl, hosting her onto her hip and lovingly smoothing the wet hair out of her eyes before leveling a glare packed with the heat of a thousand suns onto a suddenly stunned Lexa-

“You scold my kid again, you’re going to get a lot more than a little bit of pool water on you, lady.”

Geological horror. You find a geode and crack it open and the crystal lining its walls is human blood that can't be genetically matched to anyone. You find a human skeleton but every one of the bones is made from rock, a rock that you know can't be whittled into those shapes. You find layers of clay and loam that sport ancient fossils at the top and the still-rotting corpses of modern animals at the bottom.
