...aaaaaand that's it so far, let me know if you have any character recs or anything in comments plz luv y'all
So I have this idea for a Seven Soldiers of Victory Klarion fic and I need y'all to lmk if you would read this (Ryan if you see this please ignore ty)
General idea is it follows Klarions little run of comics (it's been a min since I've read it but work with me plz)
So it would start moving after Submissionary has that moment with Klarion in the beginning where Klarion is kinda being a sassy little shit and getting flamed for having an interest in the Blue Rafters by Beulah yk
So Judah goes back to the other two dudes (forgot their names mb) and is like "fuck homie is getting interested in the Blue Rafters and if HE is interested then other ppl might be what do we do"
They yam for a minute and since Judah was already talking about closing the wicker gate to High Market, one of the two dudes he works with has the idea to bring someone from the Blue Rafters and frame them for a crime
I mean hey why not
So next time Judah's homie goes to High Market, he is like "hey I need a random kid, one that won't be looked for or whose dissappearance would be noticed that's like the criteria, in return we'll give you extra (wtv it is they give ppl at high market)"
(I remember Ebenezer gave them kids but also mentioned that Limbo Town supplies them with stone so details ironed out later)
Shady dudes are like "mmm kay ig"
Enter you, a homeless kid (I say kid but your like late teens young adult ish idk, like Klarion age duh)
You're just minding your business, living on the streets, we'll say your parents kicked you out for some reason (like I said, wip)
Anyways your like trying to dig through a trash for a burger king coupon and BAM bag on your head
So you get kidnapped and held in a van for a few days, only getting out once to get cleaned and a change of clothes
Shady guys are assuming whoever is "buying" you is a weirdo so may as well make you presentable
ANYWAYS they bring you to High Market where you are smuggled to Limbo Town by Judah's friend
I imagine it would be done in a minecart where you are hidden in the bottom and the top covered in whatever else they buy at high market, with Judah's friends' familiar like laying on top of the cart to cover your scent from other familiars that may be lurking (aka Klarions nosey ass)
So you FINALLY are dropped off in like a bottom level of the submissionary building (idk)
Judah, Judah friend #1 and #2 are there and ur just like "wtf time travelling van was that what is going on
Judah tells you to stfu and if you make a sound you're dead
Okay whatever you say creepy pilgrim emo man
So you're kept in a makeshift jail for a hot minute while Judah and co. hatch a murder plot
After a few days, you are woken up by Judah friend 1 (or 2 idk) and dragged to a random location in the, presumably, early AM (on that note how tf do they tell time without the sun or a watch, things to look into ig)
You are kinda thrown in, with Judah's friend shoving an object in your hand and you being covered in gross substance from where you were thrown
Judah's friend DIPS asap but not before telling youy to stay there or be killed
Of course your eyes finally adjust and your are in the middle of a house with two, maybe three, dead, massacred bodies
Immediate and valid freakout where you try and be silent but holy shit these dudes were mangled (horigal got quirky ig)
You hear a noise at the window where a bird is just staring at you before quickly flying away
Next thing you know, submissionary Judah is throwing the door open and acting like he aint ever see your ass
You are immediately magically apprehended by him and probably some grundies or something and dragged out of the house, the whole town gathering to watch this spectacle
All while Judah is shouting about some 'Blue Rafters scoundrel invading our humble town and killing valued members of our community and the blue rafters is a threat and yadda yadda'
Whole town is behind Judah and is shouting at you and glaring and whatever as you are dragged through the streets
Meanwhile Klarion just got there and his stepdad (can't believe I forgot bro's name what kind of fan am I) is giving him the 411 on what just went down
Klarion is trying to get a glimpse cause holy shit blue rafters person, but of course, angry mob is pretty congested
Judah finally makes the grundies drag you to a prison underneath a building but it has one of those windows that is like feet level, with Judah calling the town to their church (idk what they call it) for a meeting or some shit
Me when I try and get a glimpse of the criminal but everyone is too close together
So Judah is immediatly propagandamaxxing by spinning this story of how his homie's familiar caught blue rafters scent and saw you brutally murder this gentle Limbo Town family and how you were clearly mad and deranged because all Blue Rafters people secretly are and they gotta close the wicker gate
Klarion is ofc skeptical like yeah rip but he isn't fully convinced also FUCK that means no Blue Rafters travel wth
So being a sneaky hoe, he sends Teekl to spy on your cell one night and he can't really see you through Teekl's eyes cause nighttime and while there is no sun in general, they keep the town darker at night so he mainly just sees your shadow and hears your voice
You walk up to where Teekl is (perched by window) and just start yapping about your side that no one will listen to and some other stuff
This continues for a few days while Judah pretends to debate on what to do with you cause you clearly cant stand trial cuz ur uinsane (WRONG) so ig they have to burn you at the stake
During these days, Teekl continues to visit with Klarion watching through her eyes and I don't know how but he somehow uses magic and nosiness or whatever to conclude you are telling the truth and Judah is a lying slut
On the night before you are to be burned, Klarion decides he is going to release you on the condition that you take him to the Blue Rafters
He tells you this by having Teekl deliver a note and hearing your response verbally through her ears
You are like fuck yeah whatever sure I just don't want to die
Early the next morning, Klarion breaks you out and woah hello hi if Blue Rafters ppl looked like this the entire time Klarion has been missing out HELLO
You probbalyh also take a moment to process cause woah pretty emo pilgrim boy with a cat but also we gotta GOOOO
Through the power of plot armor you and Klarion get out of Limbo town (not without running into Horigal Judah and co. probably) and yeah
That's like the general idea I have, needs to be ironed out ofc, but yeah lmk what y'all think
This post is a huge PSA for anyone writing X Reader content
You may not think this post applies to you, but it does.
There is a massive issue with inclusivity and assuming the audience. I have seen and personally experienced, time and time again, that me and many others feel as if we have no place in fandom. This specific part of it has to do with the majority of "x reader" content out there. It is all written for a cisgender (mostly heterosexual) white woman audience.
Now, cis white women getting content made for them is OBVIOUSLY not the issue here. People write for their personal interests, and there is nothing wrong with that. We all know this, and we all enjoy a fun story with our favorite characters centering around us.
The main issue here is the mentioned women not tagging their content properly, refusing to tag their content properly, straight up lying in the tags or not tagging things at all.
Trans men, nonbinary people, trans women, gay men, disabled people, fat people, intersex people and many people of color or non-american readers are constantly left out of fandom space and forgotten entirely. I've seen hundreds of complaints about it, and it needs to be spoken about more. While I'm on specifically talking about the fanfiction part of it, it is a VISIBLE issue in every fandom space you could possibly partake in. I don't even need to explain to you the rampant racism and transphobia in the cosplay community.
And the fix is extremely easy! TAG YOUR THINGS PROPERLY. It is the easiest, simplest form of allyship one could do for the community, and it goes miles. However, a lot of you seem to not understand how to, even if your heart is in the right place.
How to tag your fanfiction for the general audience:
- Specify the gender of the reader. This goes MUCH farther than just what pronouns are used. I've read WAY too many fanfics that tell me it is gender neutral, only to be hit with nicknames like "princess", or to be told the intended reader loves dresses and wears a bra.
- In tags or a prior description, mention every nickname used for the reader and every possibly gendered descriptor. It's really not difficult, and doesn't take too long.
- If necessary, mention what style of clothes the reader is specified to wear. And if this applies as well, specify any highlighted personality traits you gave the reader.
- Specify the body of the reader. This also goes much farther than gender. "Afab" and "amab" don't exactly cut it. Many people are triggered by certain words connected to genitals, so specify what words are used for those as well! Also, if you are trying to write a gender neutral body, PLEASE specify whether it is entirely gender neutral or something is implied. Many say it is gender neutral, and then explain how the reader's body self lubricates, or even has a clitoris. Please do better than that.
- For the love of God, do not automatically feminize the "GN afab" reader you wrote without a warning, and PLEASE MENTION if breasts are even spoken of, let alone used for smut reasons. And do NOT refer to someone's body as having "fem" or "male" genitalia. just say vagina or penis, please.
- Specify what body type you had in mind. Many fat or even slightly chubby individuals need to look for fanfiction that specifically caters to them, because "neutral body reader" writers, tend to not make it neutral. If you have any specifics on whatever you have written for the body mentioned, do tag it!
- Specify what sort of skin tone or hair texture is mentioned, if at all. Many POC complain that they read neutral fiction just to find straight hair, pale skin, light eyes, and blushing faces to be mentioned. If any color of the body is mentioned at all, or anything is implied, do say so! This also can go for specific things you may not think about, like how long it takes hair to dry, how easy it is to brush, hairstyles and other things of the sort.
It may seem like a bit of a list, but this is really the LEAST you can do for your community. We are consistently forgotten and ignored anywhere we go, and the simple things like this truly mean a lot.
- If there is an implied location, or anything to imply a place of origin, it's best to be on the safe side and mention that if it feels important.
- Please tag if you put the reader through, or mention a past traumatic event. Casually putting the reader character through things like an abusive ex, abusive parents, bad home or work life, or something like a car accident can be highly triggering. tag your scenes thoroughly! This also applies to putting the reader insert through something like sexist comments, unwanted touching of any kind, and similarly negative situations.
I cannot tell you the amount of times I've turned to fanfiction as an outlet and an escape, as many others have, just to be jumpscared by my favorite characters misgendering me. It's truly a miserable experience knowing no place is actually welcoming to me, or in the very least accommodating for people who aren't like them. This post is NOT meant to shame or send harassment to those who are forgetful, but ignorance is never a good thing to uphold. No one is asking you to write for an audience you don't want to, we just want to KNOW who you are writing for. Assuming an entire space is all one demographic is never, ever a good thing.
If you need help writing for a demographic you don't fully understand, just ask people who are a part of it how they would! Look at how other writers write and tag their content, and listen to anyone if they have necessary critiques. I wish you all happy writing! :]
