me writing fanfics rn

[lacesoflove]

I deadass had to do a double take when I got a notif from your blog 💀💀 but omg you're back!!! As someone who loved your Hamzah fics as a slushy and is an invincible fan I can't wait to read what you have in store?? Are requests open?? I have soo many Mark fic ideas omfg that my bumass is too lazy to write 👅

Hihi! I've risen from the dead! Requests will be open as soon as I makeover my blog and finish a Mark Grayson fic (my method of infiltrating a new fandom as a writer is dropping a banger first fic to get people hooked) <33

[lacesoflove]

hi do you still write for hamzah i miss ur fics sm :(

hi love <3

i don’t write for him anymore due to issues with some of his controversial behavior and how the community reacted when i voiced my concerns. while i may have been wrong in some ways, the racialised language used against me (ironic bc i was calling out racist-aligned behaviour in the first place) made me realise i didn’t want to continue. also, i’m just not as attracted to him anymore, though i still enjoy reading hamzah fics for the writing (slushies r rlly talented writers!!). it’s like watching a show where the actor is attractive, but in real life, they’re not, if that makes sense?

i am back into writing again - i don't think i can ever fully stave off the itch of fanfiction! i think, moving forward i'm just going to write for fictional people lol - i can see why some people stay away from writing for real life people now lmaoo. when i return, ill probably write for obx and invincible (mark grayson is my beloved <33) and other fandoms im interested in! i think itll also help me diversify my writing :)

i hate when i get a like and it’s sexysingledad69 and not ultraviolincefawn444

[kentahoe]

i didn’t think i’d actually see people mad about martin and hamzah’s recent live outside of tiktok.😭

why do you think they would gaf abt dressing up as jesus and satan if they’re not christian. they’re basically dressing up as fictional characters. nothing negative was said about the faith, christians just want to pretend their beliefs are constantly under attack. (someone not respecting what you think is “appropriate behavior” based off of a religion they don’t follow isn’t disrespectful, you’re just sensitive and small minded)

didn’t think the obvious needed to be said but why did i see someone complaining on TUMBLR😒😒

[devynrulesboisdrool]

It’s actually so weird slushys are complaining about a 5$ Patreon when other YouTube’s are 35-200$ a month when theirs is literally 5$ a MONTH for a 2 part documentary that is a couple of hours for each one.Then saying their merch is lazy?? Okay then it’s not meant for YOU. It’s for the people who ACTUALLY want it tf🌚. Crazy how you have a fan page of them yet say all these rude things and sneak diss. Just don’t support them then??y’all getting weird anyway..grow tf up and get a job, since you can’t afford 5$💀💀.

YALL STILL CAN’T AFFORD 5$🤑🤑

[melaminah]

Please mature 🙏 this is so hypocritical the irony is killing me. How are you gonna get up on here and defend them with your whole chest without acknowledging that they are quite literally acting weird. Hanging out with idubz? Like idk the king of pushing a weird racist agenda. His community was like straight up poison but hey let's not focus on actual constructive criticism and moan about people who find the merch prices preposterous mind you, 20 dollars for a shirt I could buy on shein for 2. And then the patreon nobody's complaining about the 5 dollars it's the fact that its something so big for the community but it's behind a pay wall how are you gonna put out a documentary of your biggest event yet but make it inaccessible for some of your fan base, yes it's not expensive but not everybody has money to spare for it. It's actually crazy to say that fans can't call out their favourites. People like you are what make this community a bunch of weird echo chambers of the same exhausted opinions.

[minjiblue]

why was idubz there? he’s so irrelevant and the only reason he was there was due to him creating the creator clash. + claire, chase, hamzah, haley and martin all following him? disgusting. i really hope their comeback is good, because i’ve just been falling out of love for their content. even the boxing match didn’t excite me, and yes, that’s probably a personal preference but i’ve spoken to many who share the same opinion. i just wish they would look and research the people they interact with. first mattia polibia, now idubz? smh.

[lacesoflove]

I just want to add that I definitely feel aged out of not only the fandom but also the content. idk but before it felt like the appeal was watching these two adult men play games/hang out and their friendship really shined through- it felt really comforting like you were hanging out with friends at a sleepover or something. now I feel like they censor themselves a lot to cater to a younger audience, and their humor seems more immature/brain rot rather than witty. like the hawk tuah jokes STILL and the nettspend bit just are so long and unfunny at this point. I feel like if tiktok actually shut down they would run out of references so fast and have not a lot of jokes left...but they didnt use to be that way their old videos were quite funny. but they are growing a lot now so whatever they are doing is working.

also the slushy noobz fans are really annoying and remind me of kpop fans. I think its because all of their content is honestly quite innocent- similar to kpop stuff. its just them playing games, doing mukbangs, going out to do mundane things, etc. they also make sure to not talk badly about women or make crude jokes that would give their teenage girl audience the ick. it doesnt help that hamzah is really ambiguous about who he would date or his dating life so it allows fans to self insert and feel like they really have a chance (also hes not stupid and definitely does this on purpose lol cus he knows he has teenage girls as a fanbase that you don’t want to lose the interest of). the way they baby these grown ass men remind me of kpop stans as well.

anyway yeah I stopped watching a few months ago and claire/chase are so unfunny it actually hurts. you are right about everything u said too. ignore the bitter fans

i first wanna say to all the people that sent messages saying i’m spamming or doing to much, clearly i’m not because since i made my initial post (and as well as one of my mutuals made a post on their patreon) there’s been a floodgate of slushies sharing their opinions too (lengthy opinions mind you) - clearly i’m not?

also i literally used to spam so much when i was writing for hamzah and asking the community for suggestions and shit but now i’m spamming about criticism, that’s constructive, mind you, my expression of disappointment with my favourite creators being linked to me having recent mental health issues and receiving the general implication that i’m just hysterical is so…?

anyways, the people who are tired of the “discourse” are free to block me, i get it too - but i hope you guys can at least emphasise why some of the community are upset instead of writing it off as “the woke left getting in a tizzy”

but i get the aged out thing, and it’s insane to say that when i’m 18. freshly 18 too mind you. i so get you when you say if they lost access to tik tok their jokes would ran out - i feel like their old humour could stand on their own, and yes, of course, a big part of their humour was brainrot stuff too but it felt less like they were trying to drag out the latest brainrot joke of the week (pls im so tired of the nettspend shit, they must let it rest abeg) but rather just felt like two friends who were making really funny, as well as insightful, jokes. i feel like a lot of their old humour was beyond the scope of just being tik tok references but it just felt more like they were quoting pop culture in general.

and yes they’re def giving kpop boy group 😭 like the minute they revealed they had a team behind them (side note, i thought that little appreciation montage they did for their team was rlly sweet) a lot of stuff makes sense. like esp with hamzah’s like singleness, regardless of whether or not he actually is, it definitely is a ploy to get teenage girls to self insert as their fans (ngl a smart move tbh) 😭

[lacesoflove]

hihihi im going anon for this because some of this fanbase (like you mentioned) are genuinely cruel, but I wanted to start off with I’m really glad to hear from your account. I wish you nothing but good health and I hope you’ve been able to find yourself in a better place now like you deserve <3 the internet is a cesspool, so I can only imagine how overwhelming everything feels even on the scale of running a blog,, again I wish you nothing but the best :)

to comment on your slushy noobz rant, I think you are so right and it’s such an unfortunate thing that SO many fans will never accept that truth. it is so insanely icky to platform idubbbz IN THE BIG 2025? and with chase and claire, like c’mon… why do we keep giving these white creators who show no remorse for their blatant mockery of the black community so much grace?? what did they do to earn that ‘pass’ other than the fact that they’re white and made you laugh a couple times? its not like they’ve had sincere apologies (that I’ve seen atleast, please correct me if I’m wrong)

asomeone who’s been a fan since 4freakshow, it’s really disappointing seeing the lack of change — I am a fundamental believer that you can improve, and accountability is really everything, but when there’s no accountability??? how will you ever really change? they don’t want to admit their faves can be problematic and it’s very reminiscent on the dsmp fan base like you said, as a survivor myself .. I’m sorry ik.. it was so infuriating that people could be more upset over their comfort streamer being EXPOSED as a horrible person instead of the fact they’re a horrible person. people forget these are grown adults, they can defend themselves in this case particularly!

I love slushy noobz btw!! I don’t think they’re horrible!! but that doesn’t mean I won’t hold them accountable for this weird behavior — like we should hold anyone that has a platform accountable if they do something wrong! I’m not calling for their cancellation or anything, but it is very possible to see the flaws in something you enjoy, especially when these ‘flaws’ are pure ignorance?

it feels like a breath of fresh air hearing opinions from slushies that can call this out, because hopefully people with a mental maturity past 12 can draw conclusions for themselves, and maybe think twice before blindly sending death threats over someone that they don’t really know.

i’m going to let this inboxed message just be my final statement for the time being - i don’t think i’m gonna reply or alnowledge messages where theyre clearly not even making an effort to understand where other people are coming from and if people want to continue asking me for like my input and my thoughts on the issue, whether it be the patreon or the racism shit, i refuse to regard people who use micro aggressive language

also thank you anon for your sweet words <33 some of the messages and stuff have been overwhelming but ive been black, poor and queer on the internet for like all my life, you get desensitised to people calling you a brokey for criticising merch prizes or sensitive when it comes to questioning creators’ close associations to literal racists.

[lacesoflove]

no offense girl but I think you should take time off of here and go see someone or get a journal cause what is the point of coming back on here just to tell everyone you almost committed and then segue that into saying slushy noobz have become money hungry?? they said they payed for 95% of everything that went into the boxing match. do you gen not understand how expensive that was and the fact that them pushing out more content means having their two editors work over time???? do you think they just put their money in their pockets and pay their team with thoughts and prayers orrrr??

1) this is my account

2) i did see someone

3) i had a lot of dms messaging my friend, who was managing my account whilst i was receiving help, asking what happened to me in specifics so i just felt id tell people in a post - sorry if my non challenge about it comes across as attention seeking ig

4) yk im actually even tired of writing posts abt this subject bc this fandom dumb as hell - i think im gonna reply to like the last few other messages in my inbox

[lacesoflove]

Hey I haven’t watched some of the recent vids but I saw one of your posts acknowledging what hamzah and martin have done. No hate I’m genuinely just confused and wanting to know (I’m lowkey new here) but what did they do? And you said something abt Claire and chases past? I literally have no clue sorry I just want to know what’s going on

this is highly summarised bc im trying to just go through my inbox and take a break from the fandom bc im pivoting this account to explore other fandoms too

but basically

- brought on idubbz (formerly huge youtuber who fostered an envoirment of racism with his platform under the guise of being “edgy”)

- claire, did digital blackface to a certain degree

- chase, has a tendency of using aave and a blaccent (no this is not just because he’s queer and a “queer” accent)

[lacesoflove]

what are your thoughts on them hanging out with quenlin blackwell?? she’s known to hang around some pretty problematic people even after they get caught in a scandal, she does body checking a lot in her videos and her post on instagram. i won’t watch the video but im just curious as to what your thoughts are? you’re extremely well spoken and i enjoyed reading your thoughts about them.

thank you for this! i personally love reading other people’s thoughts and video essays so having other people enjoy what i want to say means a LOT!

i want to start off with what i like about quen, before people just assume i’m a negative nancy about everything. i think she’s insanely talented in terms of her creative and visual direction and also she’s a fellow sistaaaa ✊🏾 but other than that she pisses me off.

(will never forget when she was laughing at a white boy, zach justice, making fun of another black woman fannita, with an antiblack joke). her and her friend larray just give 🦝 (if you’re black yk what i mean 🌝) and i never see her collaborate with other black youtubers ever really and like idk.

i feel like hamzah and martin hanging with her is kinda just the nail in the coffin for me because next thing you know they’ll be with that swastika drawing weirdo johnnie and his fake goth (subculture dedicated to being anti capitalism and establishment) friend jake or wtv. like idk man and this isnt me not being happy for their growth because i was but a small part of me was happy that they took a break to kind of pause their momentum to turn the fandom into something ugly (something that’s already seemingly happened lol) and in hindsight, that was a stupid thing because youtube is their jobs and obviously they’re gonna want to grow (especially hamzah considering he’s been on social media as a content creator since he was like 18/19) - but if that video with quen isnt going to get them to 1 mil subscribers within the next 3 months idk what will. props to them ig
