I've never been explicit about this because I'm a Fandom Old, and back in the day it was simply understood that anything on the Internet was fair game to do with what you wish, but: if you see a story of mine out there and you like it, download it. Fuck if I care. Keep it for yourself, distribute it to friends, print copies for yourself and your friends, mail it to people, I don't give a shit. As long as you're not exchanging money, I couldn't care less. And tbh you should be doing this with all fanfics you love - print them, save them, put them on a flash drive or a hard drive or share them with friends, whatever. Fanfic authors these days are really fucking precious about their fics, but honestly we're probably going to start seeing queer art being disappeared (especially in the US under the next president) so do whatever you can to archive the things you love to read. Even if that means just printing them out and sticking them in a binder for yourself to read as a bedtime story.
Rising from my migraine to add my name to the list. Please save my fanfics if you love them. Ask for any you can't find. And if you feel crafty, there are very easy and simple ways to bind them into books so they can sit on your shelf with the other books you read.
âŠ..uh⊠surprise! Iâm not dead!
Life has been well.. life, Iâm actually doing a masters degree now
I have been writing! Just very self indulgent stuff for myself and friends. But! I want to try and get back into writing for this account soooo, Iâll try and get some of the requests sitting in my inbox done
Also I have very much jumped off of the diving board and headfirst into a Hermitcraft hyperfixation which is fun!

Hi hey hello
Iâm in the middle of writing a Trent request but Iâm also getting closer to being in con crunch for comic con with my three cosplays
As well as volunteering at a youth theatre group making their costumes
So it is coming! But bare with me!
you guys want to do some headcanons today? iâll be at clinical for the next few hours so send me some to whip up once I get home!!
feel free to reblog so everyone can get in on the fun! đ
Iâve been dying for some Trent Crimm x reader fics. Just wondering if you write for gender neutral readers, and what your guidelines are before I send some in :)
Hiya!!
I mainly only right for gender neutral readers as Iâm non-binary!!
My guidelines are pretty lax, I may write smut, if itâs not too out there!
But I wonât write things like cheating, Iâm uncomfortable writing pregnancy stuff.
I think thatâs it though?!
Saw my first post with someone admitting they used chatGPT to âwrite a ficâ which they then shared here on tumblr and on Ao3.
To be clear, using AI to churn out a piece of fiction is not writing.
Using a bot (possibly one that was trained using a scrape of Ao3, that is to say, the theft of work from every writer who has posted their work on Ao3) is NOT WRITING.
It is theft. It isnât creation. Itâs a regurgitation of the consumed collective work and effort and heart and time of every writer who has shared their work on Ao3.
âIâm not a good writerâ is no excuse.
Want to be a writer? Put in the time everyone else does to practice.
Donât feel confident in your work? Open yourself up to the same vulnerability and risk that the rest of us do.
You donât get to use a fucking bot to vomit out an approximation of a story and pretend youâve got skin in the game.
The sad thing? This bot-assembled fic wasnât bad. It was bland, but it had internal logic, some passing context to character and canon. It wasnât like those early AI art pieces that had surreal compositions and extra fingers. It wasnât immediately obvious it was made by a bot.
In this instance the person who posted it admitted they had used a bot. Which, actually, I have some respect for. But it probably isnât the first and it wonât be the last.
I donât know that thereâs a solution to this, but it is both hurting my heart and enraging me.
Just wanted to add to this really important post. (Thank you sm @shealwaysreads)
I think part of the issue here is that people who do this think of fic as an end product. As a thing to be consumed. As content.
That's not fanfic.
Fic, in its essence, is the act of creation, of transformation. It is critically analyzing characters, exploring ideas, relationships, societal values, the dynamics of love and sexuality... the list goes on. Fic is a process that encapsulates all of this, the effort to make something that means something. That says something about what it means to be human (yes, kinky smut included). That takes vulnerability and guts and love to put out into the world.
If you think of fic as content that is there to be consumed, then yeah, it makes sense to find a quick and easy way to produce it. If the point for you is getting attention (kudos, reblogs, etc) with little to no work, using AI is tempting. But that's a capitalistic mindset that entirely negates what fanfic is.
If we instead think of fanfic as a creative process, then AI fic is not fanfic at all. Call it something else.
Lukewarm take from left field. I'm not threatened by this, in part because I write weird. Like, nobody following me is here for a bot-logical good story. If I thought my writing could be indistinguishable from a bot, I would *die* terrifically.
Fascinating to see a take on a post about the intrusion of ai tech into a creative community be so entirely focused on the self.
To clarify for anyone confused:
I made my original post because this is the first time I saw it happening, despite the fact we all knew this was coming as soon as midjourney landed in the art scene and we heard about the ao3 scrape.
While my writing is my own, and Iâm secure and proud of it, Iâm not under any self-congratulatory illusion that I was that good when I started. Many of the fics Iâve read by first-time writers are similar to what this bot produced, and those writers still deserve basic respect and civility.
Anyone working under the delusion that ai tech wonât get better at its manipulation of the data is sadly mistaken. If you havenât been following the ai progress on visual art, you might have missed that you can now request pieces to be produced in the specific style of an established artist. And the bots can do that now! They can make visual pieces almost indistinguishable from the original artistâs styleâno matter how unique, or weird, that original artistâs style is.
My post wasnât about me, or my writing. It was about the encroachment of ai and the accompanying cultural devaluation of human artistic expression outside of the work-based capitalist model.
It was about the impact of wholesale thefts of a communityâs collective work.
It was about the meaning and importance of peopleâs generosity in sharing their genuine creations.
It was about vulnerability and the creative process being more important than the ego.
Pulling this out of Tee's tags because it's brilliant:
I am interested in reflections on the human condition from other human beings. I am not interested in the guided narrative of a theft powered sophisticated averaging machine.
Thank you for saying this so powerfully @skeptiquewrites
If the point for you is getting attention (kudos, reblogs, etc) with little to no work, using AI is tempting. But that's a capitalistic mindset that entirely negates what fanfic is.
Hitting the nail on the head @thehoneybeet
If I ever come across a fic that I liked and discovered it was written by a bot I would feel extremely cheated tbh. I'd rather read a badly written fic by a first time writer who poured their heart and time and love for their fandom into that fic than some souless attempt for clout, kudos, and online attention that AI fanfic "creators" have posted.
AI is a plague on creativity and I truly hope we can find ways to make it fail.
We as a community need to make sure that bot fic is not welcome in fandom. As soon as humanly possible, we need to make inroads to have it banned on AO3. Why it isnât already (or at least wasnât as of a few days ago when a friend of mine reported one) is beyond me.
I know a lot of us have joked about wanting a machine where you can push a button and it will write your fic for you, but this isnât how it should happen. Not by stealing from other writers. Not by stealing from yourself.
I have now gotten an explanation, and honestly it is still beyond me:
Hi,
In general, the Archive is open to all fanworks, which includes works that may be considered "out of character" or were written as intentionally "bad fic". Using tools to help create such works is not inherently against the Terms of Service, though posting them in high volume may be considered spam and treated accordingly. As Section IV.I. of our Terms of Service states, "Unless it violates some other policy, we will not remove Content for offensiveness, no matter how awful, repugnant, or badly spelled we may personally find that Content to be."
Per Sections IV.D. and IV.E. of our Terms of Service, we cannot act on reports of copyright infringement or plagiarism unless a reporter is able to provide links to specific works that were stolen.
We encourage you to use the "Search within results" filter option to exclude works with titles, summaries, notes, or tags that indicate the content within may have been created with technological assistance.
You can also mute specific users or works to permanently remove them from your search results. To learn how to mute content, please refer to these news posts:

Okay so everyone is on board for Trent Crimm x readers.. sooo
Who wants to send me requests?
Why does no one write for Trent Crimm?
I think Iâm gonna change that
When reading fanfic keep in mind that for professional literature:Â
Short story: under 7,500
Novelette: between 7,500 and 17,500
Novella: between 17,500 and 40,000
Novel: over 40,000
Fics over 40k are literally a novel written and shared for free. If you have written a 40k+ fic, you have literally written a novel.
Iâm working on a real long form leverage fic atm but itâs with an OC and not a reader insert, if anyone is interested in that!
things that always make me happy: serial commenters. there are three types
1) reading a longfic chapter by chapter, leaving an increasingly emotional comment on every chapter, descends into keysmashes near the end: outstanding
2) read one fic by accident, clicked the author name, now working steadily through the backlog and commenting on everything, I wake up to an AO3 inbox full of enthusiasm: precious beyond words
3) the longterm serial commenter whose comment begins with I donât even know this fandom but because they have followed me from somewhere else: stunning. humbling. magical.
these are all *chefâs kiss* and I want to add one more: 4) left a comment a while ago, comes back and leaves another comment on the same fic, telling you that theyâre coming back to reread the fic: angels. blessings. lifesavers.
OK but real quick here: how many times can I comment on the same fic before it gets creepy???
IT NEVER GETS CREEPY
NEVER
let me reiterateâNEVERRRRRR
ok but what if your the only commenter because I feel like Iâm polluting their work with me nonsense. Normally I swear Iâm a silent reader and try and not bother anyone but their are times my blood boils coz their works are so good and they arenât getting enough love to satisfy me. But then I worry Iâm pressuring them and back off completely
Then we get even MORE excited about your comment! Because we worked hard and put this thing out into the world, and no one has given us the validation/adrenaline rush of a comment until now!
As long as you arenât rude (ex: âwhereâs the next update?!!!â or âthis story is stupidâ), authors wonât feel pressured, bothered, or creeped out; theyâll be THRILLED.Â
Donât know what to say? You can write what you just wrote here:Â âmy blood boils coz this is so good,â and theyâll take it as a huge compliment.
the first or sole commenter on a fic: to be protected at all costs
I kind of want to write some Ted lasso fics..
This show has me in a chokehold
Hey, do you still write reader inserts for Leverage? If so could I maybe get a fic set in-between Leverage season 5 and Leverage Redemption season 1, with a 16 year old female reader who tries pickpocketing Parker while the ot3 are out somewhere (not running a con), Parker obviously stops her and the ot3 start talking to the her and find out that she ran away from her terrible foster home and just needed money to eat, that hits them all in the feels (especially Parker) so they end up buying her lunch, one thing leads to another and she ends up unofficially adopted by the ot3. Wow, that's a lot (I'm still new to reader insert stuff so I hope this is an alright prompt)
Hello hello!!! Sorry this took me so long!!
Loved this request so thank you for sending it!! I did use gender neutral pronouns for the reader just because I feel more comfortable writing them! Sorry!
Pairing: Platonic! Eliot/Parker/Hardison x GN!Reader
Warnings: Hinted at child neglect/abuse
Word count: 1,557 words
Parker giggles as she leans back from taking a lick of Eliot's ice cream, reveling in the disgusted face he makes at her and the small âdammit Parkerâ that she gets from him, both of them knowing that there is no real malice behind his reaction. Just as she is about to lean in and do the same thing to Hardisonâs ice cream, a young person, not much shorter than Parker herself, bumps into the three of them, causing them to split from being a threesome couple walking together, to Parker and Eliot on one side and Hardison on the other. Eliot and hardison both instantly exclaim, telling them to watch where theyâre going but Parker just stops and watches the kid try to rush away with their head down, hood pulled up, obviously to try and hide who they are.
