Best shipwith less than 100 workson AO3 round 3: EmmaMorgan vs Remy x James

EmmaMorgan (To the Devil)

Remy x James (Tiger Tiger)

Remaining time: 1 day 14 hours

EmmaMorgan (48): "Here we see the prodigy and the hard worker, the criminal and the detective, the jealous ex and the one who didn't know they were dating all boiled into one lesbian autistic pile. Add to that that one sees themselves as a hole, a monster without agency that can never be human, and the other who hunts and seeks that monster with obsessive passion that may be hate, may be fear, may be love, or may simply be her job. Or all of the above at once. And we have a ship that masterfully balances countless tropes and propels the entire narrative of fanfiction and the original work itself.

Also it's wrightworth but even messier, lesbian, and even more autistic, so it's better."

Remy x Jamis (5): "Fellas, is it gay to be broken out of years long apathy and anger by admiration for your captain and then devote your life to serving him? Is it gay to betrothe the man you have a crush on to your sister so that he doesn't have to return to his horrible family and can instead stay by your side, forever?"

listen to me, this is so so important: you've gotta get used to really giving it your 60% as a default. like don't half-ass it necessarily but try not to go over 70% or so of an ass. you'll feel better and live a happier more fulfilled life, and on the rare occasions where you do need to lock the fuck in you'll be able to pull off bullshit that the sad miserable wretches giving it their 100% can never dream of, because they're busy draining themselves dry and you have energy reserves to spare.

[bluering8]

so i keep the notifications on this blog turned off but apparently this post got reblogged a lot while i wasn't looking and there are upsettingly many people in the notes saying things like "oh but my maximum is only 40%" so let me be incredibly fucking clear: this is a post about not working yourself to exhaustion and the importance of keeping some energy in reserve. if your maximum is """40%""" then that's not your fucking 40% then is it. that's your 100%. do 60% of that. if 40% is your 100% then you've gotta get used to really giving it your 24% as a default, or whatever.

don't work yourself to exhaustion! keep energy in reserve!! maybe unionise or something, i don't know!!! i'm not some magic wizard of knowing how to solve capitalism, i just made a post when i was kinda drunk and not thinking very hard and now people keep reblogging it and saying depressing things in the notes.

[fiend-shaped]

Why is literally every post in the pitt tag horny? It feels like it's genuinely fucking unusable if your trying to find discussion of the show, like im happy for yall but do none of you have a goddamn ao3 account? Why does it feel like all of this fandoms fics are getting posted straight to tumblr?

[picascribit]

There are 2 types of fanfic:

fanfic that I like

fanfic that is none of my business

Hella x Adaire x Adelaide (50): "This ship has it all! Toxic yuri! Buff women! Character growth! Awkward flirting! Profficient flirting! Lesbian Saul Goodman! What more could you want?"

Sakimichi x Shunsuke (92): "When the two of them meet, all Onoda wants is friends, and all Imaizumi wants is to be the best cyclist. When Imaizumi realizes what a good cyclist Onoda is, he challenges him to a race with the promise that if Onoda beats him, Imaizumi will help him form their school's anime club instead of joining the bicycle club like he'd planned to. Onoda almost beats him, but in the end Imaizumi wins and encourages Onoda to join the bicycle club. Onoda does, and the two of them become friends, Imaizumi even indulging in Onoda's interest in anime by watching his favorite show and going to events for it with him. The two of them have the utmost faith in each other when it comes to cycling, and when Onoda wins an important race for their team Imaizumi straight up picks him up, holds him aloft, and calls him by his given name for the first time. And after next year's race Imaizumi hugs him and it's just so terribly tender <3"

like to charge, reblog to cast.

[what-even-is-thiss]

So many people who wanna argue with me about King Arthur clearly haven’t read the actual medieval texts. I know this because if they actually read the source material they’d know that when it comes to King Arthur, everything is made up and the points don’t matter.

[what-even-is-thiss]

“King Arthur couldn’t have fought the Roman Empire”

Try telling that to Geoffrey of Monmouth.

[what-even-is-thiss]

“You can’t just add in new characters”

Try telling that to Chrétien de Troyes. Aka the guy who invented Lancelot.

“Arthurian canon isn’t French”

Clearly you don’t own an air fryer. Also clearly you haven’t read literally anything written after the Norman invasion.

“Arthur needs to be a knight in shining armor”

If he lived at all he lived almost a thousand years before widespread adaption of plate armor.

“He can’t be in plate armor because that’s anachronistic”

Try telling that to Thomas Mallory.

“The fairy stuff is leftover from Celtic myth/Celtic gods)

A lot of that stuff including the lady of the lake wasn’t added until the 12th century actually. Centuries after England was christianized. It was also mostly added by the French poets.

[what-even-is-thiss]

God, I sure hope so.

[fiend-shaped]

I know for a fact that theres a type of guy out there whose only exposure to arthuriana has been bbc merlin and who's never thought critically about that and they live in a more peaceful world than me

[json-derulo]

look. I know the “correct” spellings of words are only correct because the powers that be collectively decided upon one acceptable variation and printed that in stone and demanded everyone else fall in line. I know being a stickler about spelling is at best pedantic and at worst classist/ableist/etc. I know all of that. however. I just saw someone in a reply spell the word for a bitter, long-term argument between two people or groups as “fude.” and I do have some thoughts about that

hello niche community

[tvguts]

yesterday i had a nice southern teenager call me "ma'am" and then look at me and go, in a well-meaning tone, "uhhhh, if you go by ma'am. sorry if not." and i had to be like yeah man ma'am is fine. appreciate you being inclusive though. i could almost see the little warning pop up in his UI-- hold up! people with blue hair often have pronouns. are you sure you want to address this individual with a gendered term?

[fiend-shaped]

was talking to my coworker during our shift and he made a joke about how i could wingman him if he ever asked out a customer, except he paused mid-word, and switched to saying wingperson. Despite the fact that he's known me for years, and I've been using the same pronouns since i was born
