Then and now, what I protect has never changed! @ginhijiforever - Tumblr Blog

Yes the AO3 omega April fools joke was exceptionally funny but actually seeing AO3 on April 2nd without a beta status is sending me.

What do you mean it’s not in beta anymore? Isn’t that it’s thing? Just to exist in a perpetual state of almost ready. Do I too need to grow and change and become an actualized product? I am not ready.

i think ao3 should have a feature like an anonymous kudos but instead of kudos its "i jorked it to completion" and you can leave as many of these as you want and obviously authors would opt-in to this feature on a per-fic basis but like. i want the stats, you know.

glaiveyeahwoohoo

its not at all the same thing, but i recently learned of the tag "Author is Open to Hearing About Dead Batteries" which is basically saying "you can totally comment and lmk how you got off to this"

Prince of Tennis fandom still around? Lol I'm showing my age

Anyways, you know that thing where Tezuka keeps getting mistaken for an adult/coach/teacher? I saw an insta reel of this person talking about how when they were in middle/high school, they always get mistaken for being older, and someone told them it's because their face "sets" earlier than their peers, but that means as they get older, they'll start to look younger than their peers because their face won't change as much, and he was like, now that I'm in my thirties, I look like a young twenty something.

So I'm thinking how hilarious that would be when the team does a reunion, and everyone looks like a middle age guy, and Tezuka is there with his now comparatively baby-ish face and all the shenanigans lol

You know, that *would* be hilarious!

Imagine the old Seigaku crew getting together in their 40s or something and everyone has receding hairlines and wrinkles and stuff except Tezuka who doesn’t look a year older than the year he first won Wimbledon.

Optional big reveal that he has actually been a robot all along.

omggg I've never seen this before, but this really rings true with kunigiri's dynamic with all the teasing chigiri does LMAO

if mikoshiba and mayu started dating, nozaki would start reading yaoi to show his support ( since he doesn't know a lot about the topic and wants to understand it a bit better) . mikorin would complain "that's not how it works in real life" but since he never dated anyone, let alone a boy, he starts reading it too

mayu doesn't care enough to say something

a week later, nozaki's editor asks him why he started to draw the male character's hands so big

#omg i need him #gsnk #mayumiko

Writing is so fucking stupid. I had a scene pop into my head and now I’ve spent the last year and 100k words creating the necessary contextual plot/character depth to earn the emotion in that scene. Ridiculous. Absurd. Why.

i feel like the youth should be reminded that the point of shipping is not for a ship to become canon. the point of shipping is to collect all the canon crumbs like starved mice, run away cackling and make some fun little scenarios with them just for the hell of it.
