fanfic writers are so fucking awesome man. they write novel length fics that are sometimes even better than some published bestselling books written by professional writers. like fanfic writers are professional writers to me and they gift us their masterpieces for free. they give us something we can look forward to after a long day. something from which we can seek comfort when life is hard. something that can be our own little getaway. in a world of capitalism, despite everything, they give us all of these for free. like holy fuck. shout out to every fanfic writer. I wish all fanfic writers a very ‘I love you with all my heart and soul. I thank you from the bottom of my heart’

can you believe that we have fanfiction. that we have websites dedicated to fanfiction. that there is a place that you can go and read tens, hundreds, thousands and thousands of pieces of writing that strangers have made. people who are not "writers". people who come home at the end of the day and have feelings and say, i am going to put that into words. i am going to share those words. short, long, sweet, sad, horny, funny, wonderful words. we are all just human and we all love to make and remake and share that with others. can you believe that.

[stuckinapril]

I hate it when people are like “get out of your comfort zone” literally every single thing I do in my life feels like me getting out of my comfort zone

[lestappenforever]

Long rant incoming.

I feel like in the past few months lestappen popularity shot through the roof and broke containment into the new, 'younger' fans visibility and now it's getting worse.

I feel like Tumblr is a relatively older fanbase because most of us were here at the dawn of Tumblr and fandom and we grew with it. Most of us (I know there are exceptions) by now have developed the maturity to understand that fan content stays within the fandom, because it would be mortifying for us and terrifying for them if it got out.

All the younger fans who are on tiktok and Instagram have since picked it up, and in the past few months I've seen way more lestappen posts pop up on my tiktok and a lot of the users are teenagers hopping on the trend.

They think it's romantic and real. They're obsessing over it like lestappen are actually together. They think it's okay because it's 'funny and cute'.

I've even seen a couple comments on the subreddit about ships and particularly lestappen. It's more jokey over there, but the fact that the main subreddit, which I have come to appreciate for it's relatively neutrality and serious takes, is starting to contain shipping - it scares me.

Yes, we can get really crazy about them here too, but generally they are not on Tumblr, and whenever I read posts about lestappen on here, it's very much a vibe of 'aw they'd be cute together, they have feelings for each other, but I acknowledge this is my fantasy, fanfic brain speaking and realistically I don't actually think they're IRL in love/together'.

But the tiktoks I see make me cringe so much because it feels more like they're taking it too seriously, and would be crazy enough to spam Charles and Max with lestappen ideas.

I don't mean to single out younger teens etc. that they're the problem, but the fact is every time a fandom/ship gets to this level, it's generally the younger generation that of course is still developing maturity (not an insult, just straight facts), that doesn't see how their actions can have real consequences and affect others. We've seen it with many fandoms over the years, and it destroyed real relationships.

We were all kids once which is why I am saying this. I know what it feels like to obsess over people like that when you're a teen. But we need to educate people that it's fine if you keep it to yourself or within the fandom, but not okay to bring it into spaces where the real people can see it and have it affect their real life when they haven't consented to knowing about it.

Breaking containment is scary because once it gets out of hand and starts popping up at fan events etc. then Max and Charles will retreat and be more private and distant and this will fuck everything up for everyone.

They are real human beings, who deserve respect and privacy.

So please, keep this away from them. Post your fanfics on AO3 and Tumblr only. Don't post suggestive edits on platforms like tiktok where they can see them. Don't bring it up to them if you see them IRL. Keep this a happy and special community, please.

SAY 👏 IT 👏 LOUDER 👏 FOR 👏 THE 👏 PEOPLE 👏 IN 👏 THE 👏 BACK 👏

Every bit of this, anon. Every single word.
