What was the first property/media you read fanfiction online for?  🌈

[nostalgicfun]

Sometimes I forget young people exist. I’m seeing people saying that their first fic was for FNaF or Good Omens or even MLP and I’m like “Haha wow that’s all pretty new, you must have been on the internet for a while before encountering fanfiction!” 

And then the “oh no” hits. 

So I have a follow-up question: What’s the first website you read fanfiction on? Mine was Quizilla, which doesn’t even exist any more!

To any fic writers who worry they are wasting their time... I read a fic for a relatively small and inactive fandom about three years ago. And there was one specific scene where a character watched another dancing like an idiot to a beyonce song and it was so sweet and loving that even now years later I have that song on one of my spotify playlist so every once in a while it will play and remind me of that fic, and every time it does I smile and feel a little happier.

The stats on a fic will never really tell you if your writing touched someone. There's no numerical way to show you what impact you made. Maybe you are wasting time, or maybe you are writing something that someone will remember for a long time, something that will never fail to make them smile.

I NORMALLY WOULDN’T RECOMMEND A DISCONTINUED FIC THAT ENDS WITH A CLIFFHANGER UNLESS IT’S THIS GOOD

I PULLED AN ALL-NIGHTER AND FINISHED IT AT ONE SIT AND I TOTALLY RECOMMEND YOU TO DO THE SAME

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

PLEASE JUST DROP WHAT YOU’RE DOING RIGHT NOW AND READ IT YOU CAN THANK ME LATER

I’LL ALSO DROP EVERYTHING AND START IT AGAIN CAUSE THAT’S THE ONLY RIGHT THING TO DO

note: I only assumed it’s discontinued since it was last updated in 2019 but who knows

based off of this bit from the score:

i saw this and i LOST IT bc the squip just flat out DOESN’T RESPOND to jeremy’s last comment so i felt like i had to illustrate it.
