Symphazing with Mykan!

Ladies and Gentleman, we are proud to present, besting an idoit. Today’s beatdown is...Mykan!!!!

A lot of people still don't get it through their heads when they tell me...

-Oh, we get it. Just because we do, doesn’t mean that we don’t think it’s one of the most stupidest things that I have ever seen in my life!

Make the character interesting

or

THERE'S NO SYMPATHETIC CHARACTER TO CHEER FOR!

-Sadly, these are things that you are unwilling to do. You do not like the idea that people want to root for characters because you can’t. You just want people to bash.

Here's the thing...

The only characters I usually Sympathize with are GUYS who work so hard, risking their lives, doing many great deeds

-Yeah, because forget the girls! Who needs them! It’s the guys who do the real work. I could care less about how badass and heroic the girls are. Man power, am I right?

, and yet go unnoticed or unappreciated by their peers, friends, team mates...

-Oh really?! Guys who go unnoticed by their peers? Guys who go unnapreciated? So...um. 

Davis: I have a noodle shop and my friends think I am cool! I mean, sure, they tease me a little, but they still cheer me on when I kick major ass!!!!

Beast Boy: I pal around my friends and joke, and yeah, they may not always treat me like I am all there, but they care about my skills and I am valuable to the team.

Tell me again how are these guys dissrespected by their peers? Oh, and could you please tell the class the great deeds that Beast Boy has done?

 AND ESPECIALLY their love interests!

-*Rolls eyes* Of course it goes back to this!

And the kind of plot I prefer a battles (Usually Power Ranger esque) 

-Missing the point on Why those battles are awesome by the way.

or plots that involve the GUYS

-Again, never the girls, because they are icky and I cannot write women worth a damn. Unlike that handsome devil Legenbdringer.

 I mentioned up there getting even with those who wronged and hurt him.

-By using scenarios, scenes, and stories that are not only taken out of context, but ignore basic comic book cannon!

 (Like how I like to make Beast Boy hurt the Titans... or cutting off Flurry's head to hurt Cadance)

-Because One so totyally has to do with the other and not because I am a sadistic monster who got no love.

Then again, I also change the way characters behave,

-Yeah, that helps your argument by none at all. I mean, if your points were ‘so’ strong eariler, then you wouldn’t need to change them am I right?

 mostly because THAT is what I see them as, 

-As complete falliacies!

or maybe it's just exposing them for who they really are.

-No, you don’t. Not really, you just write them into scenarios or change the story to make sure that your plot works. Sense and reason be dammned!!!!!

 This is done a requisite for my fics, or also because...

-In case you haven’t figured it out yet, he is not very creative.

 I DON'T LIKE HOW THEIR BEHAVING (It does not please or interest me in any good way at all)

-You know, I have yet to see how this is tying into your lack of characters I can care about or sympathise with. All of this is is just you spouting the same rhetoritc again.

You people may bitch...

-Because it’s fun. While we know you wont change your ways for anything,it’s still fun to watch you dance like a puppet on a string.

They need to be something resembling their regular selves....and they just aren't...

-Wich is what a real writer would try to do in order to make their point. But you are going to say-

Like I just answer... because their regular selves MAKE ME SICK (and I don't like them)

-People like you are why Conquest comes back t life.

And Noooooooo... I will not ignore them and make ORIGINAL characters for my own way

-In spite of you making original characters like Starfleet, Count Logan might as well eb an original character with how little he resembles beast boy.

Number One:

-*Hums the KND theme*

 Nobody in their right-frame-of-mind wants to read original characters in original settings.

-...

....

....

....

...

Do...do I have to make fun of this line? The joke is writing itself. I mean, I am doing nothing here.

Care to tell that to the different magnaka, comic writers, and show runners about that? BEcause last I checked, Gravity Falls, MLP, and my hero Academia do pretty well.

 I sure as hell know I DON'T. those kinds of fics get ignored

-*Reading Fallout Equestria* I’m sorry you say something Boris.

 and are pointless to make. More people prefer THE ACTUAL characters being placed in ACTUAL SITUATIONS to their preferences... like me.

-And yet you made Starfleet.

Number Two:

-Again, all I am hearinf is the KND theme.

 I am angry at THOSE CHARACTERS and THAT SHOW

-And I will show it by constantly writing fanfics about it and I will not listen to reason or do the intellegent thing and just walk away.

 (Be it MLP, Teen Titans, Digimon, Ect, ect)

-Basically, any show or series that tend to not end excatly how I want it and to MY demands.

 THOSE shows pissed me off, there for THOSE SHOWS and THOSE CHARACTERS will be bashed in my fics.

-Sadly, unlike most people who bash characters with thier fics, you tend to make up lies, or will exgaggerate their ‘flaws’ in order to make thier point.

Number Three:

-Man I would love to watch KND.

 There is no way to ignore them. Once you see it and know it, it's there to stay. Nothing you say or do will dislodge it.

-I don’t know, I don’t remember half of the really bad and boring films I watch.

Bottomline is... I'm only interested in MY OWN SATISFACTION 

-But I can’t get no...Satisfaction!

out of characters and plotings.

-And flip what other people think. Wich is impossible since I am releasing it on a public forum.

You: "In other words, you're trying to tell people to be miserable, and that friendship is stupid and that everyone should be angsty.

Mykan: That's not true at all...

-Yes it is. Otherwise you would stop with the friendshp is failure, stop having so many characters kill themselves, and generally be miserable creatures who are a drain on society.

 I'm trying to stop YOU BIGOTS 

-I don’t think you know what that word really means. I think you are just using words that you found in that word of the day calenday.

and IGNORAMUSES from telling other people how to make their own stories,

-By stopping us from offering ell thought out critiques, and ideas, and how to rewrite said stories into a set scenario.

 by standing up to you and continuing to make stories that YOU CLAIM make you sick to read.

-Well, sick in the head for me.

 (I'm actually starting to feel pleased that these stories make you sick... seeing the kind of people you are... Lord knows you deserve far worse for your behavior and hate spreading)

-Aren’t you techinically spreading more hate by insulting works people love, insulting characters that people enjoy and genrally being a nuesance?

Closing: These characters and plots are in MY WORLD now, and in MY WORLD... you'll do as I SAY, or there will be punishment.

-Shame, as a superhero once said...the moment we entered, it became our world too.

Just because YOU make something that looks believable, creative, ect, ect..

-I.e just because you write something good, doesn’t mean that I should.

. Doesn't mean I like or approve of it, nor will I give it a passing grade. It's all I about MY PREFERENCES (Not the Readers)

-And that is why your ratings are in the dumps!

AT4W and aging

I wanted to open this with the video so I can talk about something...Aging and such.  

See, with my mom eariler tonight I rewatched the entirety of the Vyce arc and well, it aged well. I mean really well. As in, everything that I enjoyed back then I enjored now with just as much love if not more. This is interesting because of my feelings about the CA anniversary specials have been lowered as time went on. I think I might know why this is and if you’ll bear with me I can examine it.

See, first of all is the behind the scenes information. As of late, it’s becoming harder for me to not watch the anniversary specials and not think of things like Orlando almost breaking his neck, the selfishness of the Walkers, their stupidity, and other failings of the behind the scenes. IT also doesn’t help that the story got weaker thanks in no small part to the fourth film. In TBF the horror stories are even worse and the  tales of incompetance are legendary. But, you don’t need my word for it. Just look up Lupa and the others and they can say it.

The Vyce arc, and indeed a lot of the other story lines don’t have those skeletons. Even the movie doesn’t. Call it luck of the draw or how Linkara was really working alone for a lot of it, bu the point is that I can go back and watch it without thinking about how 90′s kid was treated like slime or how Harvey was talked into playing a rape scene with Pollo. 

And please for the love of Celestia on high do not tell me there is a fic like that. 

However, I believe I would be mistaken if I think that a horrifying backstory was my only problem with the specials. I think, another thing that can help the films vs the AT4W plots is that, well, if I were to be honest with myself, I think Linkara is just a better story teller with a better handle on what it means to be a character. I find this odd because I have read somewhere that Doug is more of a character person while Rob (his frequent partner) is plot centric. Sadly, I find this to be less beliveably the more often I go back to TBF and others. I mean, Doug is good at looking at characters all right, himself. 

Let’s not forget, there are frequent stories of how Doug would want the characters to be played as he would play them. Often with just, “Ehhh just do it.” So, Linkara is turned meaner because that is how the critic would act, Brad is more desprate because that is how Doug would write him.  While Kickassia was less obivious in this aspect, it gets worse as the films go on to where there are hints of it in SK and you could easily replace each guy with Doug in TBF and you would never notice the difference!

Linkara isn’t like that. Not only is there a feeling of actual effort into making the characters feel themselves, but a better empahsis on character in general. Tvtropes keeps talking about how the NC grew and how he obiviously had effects of the films on him through the other reviews or how he wanted to be a daddy on reviews after SK. Well, I would love to know where all of that is because I SURE AS HELL DONT SEE IT!! Linkara I can tell has grown, has changed, and has become better through his experiences in his adventures.  

Not only is there a better focus on him as a character, but the plot is more focused. As there is a lot of growth and the character feels like he actually does something. Hell, if you were to compare the two, then you would ask yourself...whos the better hero. 

Film Brain: Well, I can’t think of anybody better to lead us than you critic.

Critic: You are only saying it because Linkara isn’t here.

When I watch an AT4W story, I feel more engaged and more entertained than I do one of the NCs. Again, because I feel like Linara is a better character and Lewis has a better handle on a story.

I’ll probably come up wiht more later, but hey...its been 10 years for Linkara, while CA also had the same thing. LEts get to anylizing shall we?

[legendbringerlove]

What?! Linkara is cannon?

Ok, so all of you who read Evolution of Friendship know that there are a lot of people, things, and rangers who are cannon in the story. However, at one point there is going to be a cameo from a certian reviewer who is going to blow you mind. Linkara!

Yes, that is Linkara in one of the chapters and, no its not Lewis Lovhaug, it is in fact, the Linkara of the show. He is fully real and alive in the universe, making reviews and fighting bad guys left and right with his faithful friends. All of his abilities, strenghts, and story is cannon here. He is observed by Checkmate (That is who Lani is a part of in this world) and the Justice League have given him the time of day, while Dr. Fate has helped in some of the magic stuff. Dick Grayson is a fan of the show as is Madylin, 

But, I bet you are wondering about things like To Boldly Flee, Malachite, and the rest of the Awesome stuff. Well, please note, I said Linkara is cannon, not the rest of the awesome stuff. Everything else that happens with the reviewers, that...is just mainly what we deal with in reality, just a bunch of series and shows. Linkara just enjoys being a part of it all. 

So, what about the continuity you may ask. Well, a lesser writer would just insult your intellengce and just say because of a big white hole in the sky while ignoring what a plot hole really is. However, I may be lazy, but I am not a porn star...wait, lets change that! I may be insane for doing this, but I am not lazy, so here we go, all of your questions answered!

Because, remember, these are the same ones I have and still had about a world where Sephiroth, Superman, and a killer Ang are all cannon. 

1) What about Vyce? Wouldn’t the Justice League have questions?

-Glad you asked. Remember, Vyce has dimensional warping powers on the ship, so the Justice League had no idea about him until it was too late to find him.

2) Considering the other heroes out there, why did Vyce consider Linkara a champion over everyone else.

-Considering the awesomeverse has a Superman, and even Linkara has Cable popping up, wich means that there is an X-men (Or at the very least, Cyclops and Jean Grey in order to have Nathan) I have questions about this too. However, I have a theory about this...

Maybe Champions on worlds run on a different set of worthiness. After all, Linkara’s friend Jaeris is a champion and he is a reviewer as well. So maybe the whatever determines who is a champion by something special that we can’t see, a unique wavelength that only people like Linkara have.

3) Wait a moment!!!!! Linkara reviews DC comics! Doesn’t this mean that the identities are revealed?

-HA! I knew this question would come up. No, not at all. Remember in Marvel comics, there are stories where the actual comics are cannon (Seems that Spider-man is a horror story there, FF are more autobiographical, and I think Daredevil is some sort of batman thing) so, the same thing here. Superman gives them permission to write stories about him and he donates everything to charity like the rest of the merchandise. 

Linkara in this world reviews those comics and films. So just imagine there is a world where Nightwing is reading a batman comic and laughing his butt off about the silliness that DC is putting him through. 

Hmmmmm...

This give me an idea!!!!! (Writes down ideas)

4) Your story is in 2008, Linkara just started his career at the time. Will these be referenced or are you settling for he is still starting out.

-Havent decided. Maybe I’ll write in that he is just starting out and he learns some tricks from Sunset, or that we are in a world where Reviewing took off back before youtube (Remember, tech levels are different in the DCAU.) and Linkara just got his start. Maybe I’ll even have Malachite make a cameo.

5) Ok, so lets say that this is a world where TBF, SK, and Kickassia does/did happen. Explain how come none of the heavy hitters or space bearing Superheroes noticed this kind of thing.

-Well, each of the films are just that, films. Linkara just goes to where he needs to and films there. The anniversary movies are just a bunch of guys plus a RL magic user doing stories. So...what does this mean in the end? Well, it means that Kickassia was all in good fun. SK, heh, that was real. Seems that Doug found the real Malachite’s hand in the end and brought it to the shoot thinking it was a prop. Linkara, when invited, was called by Zatanna who told him about the hand and the mages that were after it. So, he kind of had to run out and help them out. So, just imagine that Linkara was playing savior to the guys while they didn’t know, running from shoot to shoot and stopping the mages from killing his friends while the guys wee just thinking it was for show. It wasn’t until the real Malachite showed up that things got real. Luckily, it wasn’t Bargov/Mat-ti that saved them. It was...Alan Scott.

Linkara: Why are you here?!

GL: I watch your review show. I’m a big fan. (Flies away)

To Boldly Flee, was again...just a film shoot. I mean, come on, we all know that Zod wouldn’t be caught dead working with Turrel unless he was in charge. And the only way the Executor would possibly work is if he was siphoning funds from WGBS or Morgan Edge. Plust Turrel would be caught so fast by the GL corps and Thanagar would be all over them so damn quick. Though, Mechakara was there, he just slowly got annoyed with everyone when he found out it was all a show. He would’ve had a high body count were it not for the intervention of Cyborg. Yeah, while Linkara was trapped, he called all titans who were listening to save his friends. Cyborg was the first one to pick up and there was a huge fight between Cyborg and Mechakara.

...

Not that the producers would notice!!!!!! They were too tired to pay attention. 

Marz: Is that a huge battle between cyborg and Linkara out there?

Allison: Don’t care, go back to bed!

There was something going on in Europa, that Checkmate had Linkara check out. He just happened to accidentally pick up some unexpected passengers (Brad and the others) on his trip. Seems that small remants of the plot hole did make it’s journey through the multiverse and wound up here. So Linkara did have to solve that problem

So yeah, any fans of my fics have more questions about Linkara being a hero in a world full of superheroes, ask away.

And he is not affilated with the Titans, though not for lack of Trying.

Yes, I think way too much about this

[legendbringerlove]

The crapiness of the To Boldly Flee villians

Ok, so while I am not a part of Channel Awesome (And this type of post will probably be sure to stop me from ever going there) or change the channel, I do still feel like I can do my part by reviewing certain aspects of their movies and such. So, without further to do, let’s look at the lame, poor excuse of villians for the film.

Now, Mechakara is excempt from this because Linkara did a fine damn job of keeping his character true to fact and was able to keep him on straight. Granted, the script wanted to turn Mechakara into a sterotypical robot villian (Seriously, if you want drama, then don’t make the villian overly comedic), Linkara was good enough to not only keep them in check, but made him the best part of the movie. Even if the assimilation thing doesn’t make any sense whatsoever. That part just felt like “Gee, the Borg are silly looking, let’s make Mechakara into a borg expie for the laughs!” 

But, then we get into the other villians and they fail to live up to the standards set by the side-villian. For instance, Turrel is a complete and utter joke, and while this works fine if this was a pure comedy, not so much here. Expecially when compared to the spectacular villian in the previous film. Turrel here, is presented as an arch-nemsis, the one who is dogging the critic all the way through. The problem being, he has no real connection with the critic outside of the one review.  It doesn’t help that his over-the-top hamminess (Provided by Spoony), detracts from much of the menace that would’ve helped with the drama. As it stands, however, there is a little bit of a disconnect.

For instance, we have had scene upon scene of Critic feeling dour and sad about his lot in life. Then what do we cut to? Turrel misquoting Shakespere because...it happened in Star Trek? Even though in VI, that was part of his character as he was inspired by the books of old and it was Shakesphere that helped to translate Kilngon to English. 

Then we have Zod...and no, Doug’s Terrence Stamp impression is not good. It just plain sucks! Stamp has this wonderful presence, this menance to him that reminds you that this guy conquers and is a perfect foil to Reeve’s more down home charm. This guy, not so much. Critic, when he first sees Zod, acts like he has seen this guy before and has a deep unnatural connection with him, one that spans generations. Why though? Just why, other than a poor excuse to make a freaking Kirk reference. What also annoys me is the lack of superpowers. 

Now, I know the excuse. Because in Superman II he was hit with the red solar rays that depowered him and yadda yadda. Ok, let me ask this, why isn’t he dead or in prision? Or excuted for his crimes in a war council. Yeah, remember in Superman II, he was thrown into the abyss by Superman. So, following the logic that no one but me has seen the Donner cut, then Zod should be dead. But, if we go by the tv cut, he is last seen being taken away by the police. However, Donner is the only one where he is in the Phantom Zone, but that also brings problems to the table as Superman changed history so Zod was never released.

So, wich is it? Our police are utter imcompetant, Zod is immortal, or did the plot hole open the Phantom Zone. Actually, now that I think about it...Why is Zod working for the emperor, oh sorry, the ex-no I mean emperor?  I mean, think about it, Turrel because he hates the Critic and Mechakara is there because he wants the gauntlet. Zod is there because, he needed the paycheck? Zod would never lower himself to work with the humans and instead, would’ve had Palpatine lite hung up by his throat for even daring to suggest he work under anyone. 

So, does Zod do anything in the movie, other than stand around in “spandex”. (For the record, in the movie, it was not spandex.) Nope! Does he do anything cool as expected from a badass movie villian? Nope. Does he spout his catchphrase because that is all there was to Zod appearently? What do you think? 

And then we have the Excutetor...oh, hell, I am just gonna call it as it is. It’s emperor Palpatine, even Linkara made fun of that. Palpatine-lite, is a freaking poor excuse of a big bad. The way they write him, plays him up as the final fight for our critics, the one they are standing against. I suppose this is supposed to be an allegory for how the critics are rebels against the man, but, we have some problems with this. First of all, how did he get his own fleet and Death Bomb, where did he make it? Why did Hollywood signoff on this?

For a man who is also supposed to be our big bad, he lacks ANY of the presence of the man he’s ripping off of. Look, I know Palpatine is a hammy villian and can be over the top, but he still carried with him a presance that you could feel. For example, the scene where he appears in Return of the Jedi, he just has this feel of “Yeah, this guy could kick my ass”. This guIy, doesn’t. In fact, I am almost close to saying he lacks the personality of the other two villians. All he seems to want to is walk around and spout how powerful he is and how he is the ultimate thing on the planet. 

No, Vince McMannon is the higher power, he is just a guy being played by Rob trying to get some scares and tryign to make us think that he is all that, but he isn’t. He isn’t even that threatening or powerful, just the guy who sits there with an extereme disconnect from the rest of the ‘Plot’. 

Next time, I might discuss some of the themes about it 

[legendbringerlove]

Things not to  do when trying to be funny

-Not watch youtube vids about voice acting

-Watch reviews from people funnier than me.

-Play an awesome video game or think about favorite anime

-Roleplay.

[legendbringerlove]

More Stupid

You know, I have a guy literally tell me that you don’t need things like compassion and friendship to form a team.

I am still not sure if he is as dumb or dumber than certain critical fanboys

[legendbringerlove]

In the annals of OC history, there are many losers. Ones that stick with you because of how bad they were or how rediciously overpowered they were. Some are just there because you noticed that they are basically an anthesis to EVERYTHING that the series stood for. And then you have Reisu from Sailor Titan who punched out God and sacrificed the entire world because he wanted to join his evil girlfriend (I wish I was kidding. Linkara was insane when he was 13)

And then you have...Count Logan, aka the incarnation of Beast Boy. But, rather than talk about it with you, let’s let Mykan himself discuss it.

I was hoping it wouldn't come to this as it spoils...

-The story that only 105 people have viewed, 84 have downvoted, and there is a one percent chance that one person hit the wrong button. Oh, and it’s a story that you have told at least 4 times now. Hell, I think you have told this story so much that it is outdoing the Radtiz saga as one of the most overtold things in history!

but as people are ignoring the small parts of it anyway (I may as well do this)

-Or you can wait for it to end and then explain it, but again we know the ending, we know what is going to happen.

And one last thing...

-Let me guess, it’s something that is going to make me want to laugh like a hyena?

TO HELL WITH SO-CALLED "COMMON-SENSE"

-*Laughing like a hyena pup*

(The stuff has hardly any meaning to me in this field) "Common-sense and good judgment won't save you this time... not from me."

-He does know what commen sense is, right? He does realize he basically just said, “You won’t win, because I’m a moron.”

-And now, for the hardest thing I can do on this, look at this image and try not to laugh. But it is so hard right now. I mean, look at it!!!! There is just so much wrong with it, that it isn’t even funny.

Let’s start with the color, wich is practically screaming 90s edge right now. This is all black, wich does not really stand out all that much in the grand scheme of things. Even characters like Darth Vader and Batman have some color in their athestic when they are designed. That’s because, making him pure black like this kind of just screams “Pay attention to me.” Now, a lot of the time, when the hero is meant to go rouge or turn evil, they usually will either invert their colors or wear their old costume as a cape. This is none of those thigns and is just something that makes me think of a kid trying way too hard.

Lastly, the face. Will someone please tell me where he stole it from? Because I know I saw that look before. Maybe it was done during the Titan era of Teen Titans when Dick and the others left the book or it was an unused design choice.

COUNT LOGAN: (formerly known as Beast Boy of the Teen Titans.)

-Formally known as the artist, his purpleness, and Smitty the wonder poodle.

Is an evil and very powerful interdenominational sorcerer, and is initially the primary antagonist of my fanfic,https://www.fimfiction.net/story/390095/friendship-is-failure-10--teen-titans-the-end-of-ends.

- is initially the primary antagonist of the Wii game Super Paper Mario.

Ok, with this and the “Twilight” thing back in the Lighting Dawn Page (Wich I will  get to) I am really starting to think he just grabs words from the wikipedia articles and uses them.

He was reincarnated from Beast Boy to serve as a slave to The Dark Prognosticus

-*Pulls out cell phone* Hello, Nintendo?

(A powerful and evil prophetic spellbook)

-Only Mykan can take something  from Super Mario and try to treat it seriously.

Garfield Mark Logan

-Hmmmm, better on this if this were only about the other four members of Titans. Only one thing to do...Research the hell out of it!!!!!

When he was 5, he got sick after being bitten by a green monkey. His parents saved him using an untested animal serum, which unintentionally mutated him green and gave his animal powers.

-It was a machine not a serum. If you are going to talk about a superhero, get your cannon straight! *Looks up* Oh, we are going animated. Well, as long as we stick to one of them, I should be fine

After that, Garfield's entire life was shaped by nothing but heartbreak, tragedy and misery!

-You know, except for the billions, the mansion, th fans, the love and affection, the...

Shortly after his mutation, Garfield’s parents died in a boating accident during a flood. An accident that still haunts him as he believed he could have prevented and saved his folks.

-Yep, stole this from the Titanstower site.

Then, his foster mother died in a tank explosion

-*looks it up on both the sites* Nope, it was foster father in a temple explosion and, wait a minute...

That’s from the freaking comics!!!!!!!

His legal guardian, Nicholas Galtry, despised the boy,

-Ok, we are going with the comics stories then? But, then this whole world will make even less sense. Because if this Dark Probobcious is as powerful as  you say it is then why isn’t it being watched over by Dr. Fate? Or being burnt into cinders by John Constantine?

Hell, searching for Beast Boy and getting him a new home is now even dumber because this is the DCU, and they love their heroes!

abused him daily and plotted to have him killed so he could get the inheritance money.

Garfield ran away, but was captured by two thieves, whom abused him and forced him to do their bidding.

-Hey, mr. fanboy, you got the order wrong! It’s Temple, Theives, and then  evil attorney.

That’s when the Doom Patrol came along, adopted the boy and trained him, and he because BEAST BOY.

-Well, actually it all depends on the universe. See, if you go by the cartoon, he broke into their hq and they found him worthy to be on the team. However, if you go by the ccomics, he tried to join the titans and doom patrol without telling of his guardian about his double life. However, they rejected him because they needed his guardians permission (Ok, what? So, did Dick set that up or was Roy just teasing?)

Then he was found by the titans when he was mesmerized by a ringleader to be a giant gorrila. Then he began to work with the Doom Patrol and was THen adopted by elasti-girl and steve Dayton after winning a legal battle with the lawyer. Sadly, since Doom Patrol never caught on as well as the X-men, they were cancelled in their 169th issue and were all killed with the exception of Beast Boy.

That was when he went into acting on the show Space Trek 2022 as the alien metamorph tork. However, he was the scrappy of the show and was fired. After traveling with his highschool girlfriend, Jillian (so much for Terra being the one.) he found himself back in the saddle when she was kidnapped by Arsenal (Galtry) After he kicked the bad guy’s ass, he joined Titans west along with Flamebird, Hawk and Dove,  Bumblebee, and two others even I don’t know. Meanwhile his powers continued to evolve until he could only change full into his animal forms

Due to Mento’s harshness,

-He must of hated the way he made fun of his hat.

And you wonder why the X-men are the more popular of the two.

and stubborn strict attitude,

-this was when he met the titans and...oh, is he still continuing? Sorry, comic history can be fascinating sometimes!!!!!

Beast Boy felt alienated from the team and struck out on his own.

-That is copied word-for word from the wikipedia article!!!!!

Everywhere he went he was rejected and treated harshly due to his green skin,

-Pictured, total rejection

Any comic reader know who the yellow winged guy and blue black guy are?

Wait...Ok, the girl is Lillith, the guy is Vox, and the yellow dude is golden eagle.

but eventually came the TEEN TITANS, and all that.

-Ok, I think he just mixed up at least two continuties here. Worst than I do, and I have seen more superhero crap than him.

Here, Beast Boy assumed the role of a comic relief-- telling bad jokes, being mischievous—

-Wich is his character that he loves and tends to make him liked and you are-

but all this is really a mask of laughter-- he uses it to hide the pain and sadness from his life.

-Going to make it sound as depressing as possible and OOC for your story to work.

(Much like supressing the rage, but eventually it will snap)

-Or as a way to relieve stress, but I am not a psych major.

Despite the good times he had with the Titans, there were more bad times than good.

-I have been watching the show and I can tell you right now that this bullcrap!

(Most of which came from Raven’s abuse and rudeness, and her supressing her powers is no excuse)

-Yeah and then you have all of the times she was caring towards him, but go on, I am curioous to see where you are going with this *Puts head on hands)

-They don’t include him

-Don’t include him in what? His games? Cartoon watching? What?!

-they make fun of him

-And he usually fires back.

-They insult him

-Raven smacks him (even when he’s right on Trouble in Tokyo)

-Awwwwwww, poor baby, lets back up the abulance.

-When he has a good idea (an honest one) they don’t listen to him

-Because he’s usually wrong?

Then again, that’s BB’s curse: Any friend or loved one he makes will eventually die or turn on him (It’s always the same)

-Pictured, a person turning on Beast Boy

Worse, people in the city don’t seem to appreciate him much (Preferring the other Titans to him)

-Been through 13 episodes so far and haven't seen a simgle sign of that.

Girls don’t like him, he can’t hang out with cool crowds unless the Titans are with him.

-Yeah, it’s not like he has a fan club or anything.

He’s pretty much an UNSUNG HERO (A person whose heroics go unnoticed and/or unappreciated by others)

-How horrible, he is doing this because its the right thing. Oh my god, this is simply horrifying.

(So as you can see… I already have MORE than enough to make him become Logan with or without THE GIRL)

-All based on lies, misunderstanding, and tricks of the mind.

Then, along came Terra. Finally, someone who liked him just for who he was,

-Unlike that Jillian woman or the other Titans who liked him because of his...

and they had so much in common too…

-Yeah, like she enjoyed his laughter and he thought she was pretty and...and there was...she was....Um...any titans fan care to help out?

it was like they were MADE FOR EACH OTHER, and that fate was finally rewarding BB for all his years of suffering!

-Yeah, by offering him a pretty girl! Who cares about the basic stuff like life completion, friendship, and a life goal to complete it. It’s the girl that is the most important thing in existance.

But then, there was THAT STUFF…

-Like it seems that the only reason why anybody ships them is becausse they are cute.

-Terra thinking he broke his promise about her powers

-Her involvement with Slade

-Her fighting the Titans

-Her turning into stone

-aka the adaptation of Judas Contract that was actually well done!

“You were the best friend… that I ever had!” (Her final words to him before turning to stone)

-And that scene was actually well done. And Beast Boy moved on, strong that he was.

And then, came Things Change.

-BOOOM!!!!!!!

There, had to get at least one head explosion out of me before moving on.

She pretend to have amnesia and was pushing him away because she wanted to forget her past (even all the good times they had) She wants nothing to do with Beast Boy.

-You go girl!!!! Grow up and move on through the pain, we are all rooting for you.

“You’re my friend! You’re a Teen titan!”

“You’re wrong!”

…all so she can live a normal life and forget her past!

-A perfectly reasonable reaction to a horrible trauma like almost DIEING!!!!!

That is cold, cruel, extremely selfish, and very foolish as well,

-Yeah, she’s not catering to YOUR, sorry beast boy’s, needs

but it’s not like she cares that she broke his heart… perhaps irreparably!

-Pictured, an eternal broken heart

(It’s hard to find a pic of Beast boy shipped with anyone but Raven)

He didn’t deserve that, not a bit!! The little guy’s gotta have something in this world to hope for.

-It doesn’t have to be love you know. IT can be friends, family, and the future. Love is just one of the many things you can find.

What’s he got to hope for now? His one and ONLY true love ditched him…

-I know this is odd, considering I am a huge shipper but...I really hate this idea. It basically says that you have no other choice but to have the ONE perfect love in the world. You are going to have multiple loves throughout your life that you will say is perfect until you discover that the best love is the great love. Sometimes you will move on, sometimes you won’t. But there is no such thing as there is only one true love.

(Just like everyone else he ever befriended or loved die)

-You know, except for EVERYPONY ELSE!!!!

(end of BB’s origin)

-As interpited by a guy who has never read a comic before in his life.

THE DARK PROGNOSTICUS

-I do not care if this is from Super Paper Mario or how awesome it is...it still makes me think of noses!!!

After the breakup, things only went from bad to Worse. He was highly disrespected in JC

-Wich is odd, considering that this is the DCU, where they make freaking museums dedicated to their superheroes.

-The newspapers only did columns on the other Titans (Not interested with him)

-PP: Um, Mr. Jamenson, why do you only want me to pick up photos of Robin, Raven, Cyborg, and Starfire.

JJJ: PArker, everyone knows that Beast Boy photos don’t sell!!!!

-There was no BB merchandise in the stores (Just that for the other Titans)

-Man the collector’s market must be a bitch over there. Either that or every store is owned by Matell. Yes, I am still bitter about the lack of Katara figures!

-More and more BB’s favorite hangout places had changed and were not replaced (Leaving him with very little ways to go)

-Ok, now this has gone from bad luck, to conspiracy, to just plain rediciously sad.Surprised that he hasn’t said that Beast Boy’s favorite show was then cancelled, and that Sega announced it’s ending Sonic games.

As if he weren’t miserable enough, Despite the Titans trying to be sympathetic, all they really did was badger him to accept change and “MOVE ON!!”

-How dare they try and get him to get a life. Those horrible people. I can see why I am on their side and not that on the whiner’s

What the hell does HE have to move on too? The other titans have moved on from their problems.

-What? No they haven’t!!!!

-Robin and starfire are dating

-Yeah, I can see how this addresses their own individual character conflicts. It was only their romance that was important.

-cyborg is cool with who he is and people love him

-Yeah, those few scenes are all that’s needed to say that he’s fine with being trapped forever in a metal shell, unable to touch anything and is an inhuman creation.

-Raven beat Trigon, he’s no longer a threat to her.

-So totally makes up for the YEARS of truma she is acculmating.

…and BB is still losing things, as well as confidence in his team (Then again… that’s his curse: They love you, and they turn on you)

-Because you do the following...

And don't you try to tell me The Titans wouldn't do that, because THEY ARE capable of doing so, and to me, they are no exceptions. they either die or turn into jerks (Just like everyone else BB ever encountered)

-Am convinced that if you do one bad thing, that will forever taint you for life. No matter who you are, you can never change yourself for the better.

After many fights with the Titans and having a super falling out, BB quit.

-shame he didn’t stay longer, he missed out on the party they had to celebrate his farewell.

Realizing he can’t stay in JC or with the Titans anymore as they are only ADDING to his pain!

-*Imagines Beast Boy dressed in goth clothing and laughs*

Then again, where would he go?

-Titans west? Bunk with Aqualad who he had built a bond with? You know, those superheroes that you say there is no room for even though you spent time putting in the additions of the Doom patrol for no appearent reason!!!!!

He tried to go to other towns and maybe start over… again he got rejected, booed and judged harshly for his green skin and prejudice people.

-This makes no sense whatseover considering his own fandom and how many people love him.

To top it all off, the nights were cold, creepy

-Oh gee, if only he could become an animal with a lot of fur or a cold-blooded reptile.

and filled with nightmares of his past!

-The one time he ripped Dick’s comics, his nightmare about being turned into a veggie burger, that one nightmare where he is stuck in a musical and he is one of the worst human beings on the planet.

All the people he had lost, all the people he thought were his friends, all the people who wronged and betrayed him!!

-That pizza he had ordered a month ago that was lost. That comic he will never read, and of course, the lost of ms. Snugglebottom

“GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!”

-Roy: *Throws a rock* Quiet out there, I am trying to sleep!!!!

Overtaken by extreme anger, hatred, pain and sadness, Beast Boy went POSITIVELY INSANE!!

-Calm down, no need to get excited

Any bit of light and love in his heart had complete diminished after so much pain and torture!

-Ok that is it!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7IxliAPjAk

Just replace the rest of the blog with this charactrer!

(Just like any human being who suffered so much for so long. Sometimes they just SNAP.)

-More like is a self entitled boob who wants everyone to kow tow to him and him alone and won’t listen to reason

The Dark Prognosticus could sense this, and Teleported to him from Raven’s room.

-Yonk!!!!!

Only someone with heart filled with extreme hatred and darkness would be able to unleash the powers within.

-Ok, so let me get this straight. With all of the powerful and black hearted villians in this world. Ones that would so easily fill the job of being the dark one that this thing craves, it picks out a lonely and sad little teen who only lost his family and girl? There are probably billions of other people out there who are suffering from the same type of thing Beast Boy is, but this one time he is going to hone in on?!

The book was now fully awake, and IT

-They all float down here gar!

had chosen HIM to be THE ONE to unlock the dark magic with in and fulfill it's dark desires.

-Garflied: Really, me? Not say someone with a whole ton of power or someone who would lead better or someone who has a blacker heart than me?

DP: Yeah, look, you are the only one who would follow orders and not stab me in the back for power.

Whether or not BB wanted to do this or not (Which he didn’t) the choice was not his!

-Why does this feel like a filmaker trying to defend the actions of his character to help with his vision?

The book was choosing HIM, and that was final!

-Yeah there it is, the it was them not my character.

No amount of will or nobility or courage could defy it.

-Can’t fix it because I am the writer and what I say goes. Look this was all cliche when Homer tried it in the Illiad!

The Book shot him dead…

-Oh, bang bang, he shot him down, bang bang that aweful sound.

(That’s how the Doom Patrol found his corpse)

-Again, billions of other people out there, but he was the one he homed in on. Then again, Beast Boy was the one who broke into his room. But you should feel sorry for the sap.

Now everything was set and ready for the book to work it’s will and put its curse in motion.

-You know what I love about this? Reading this whole thing means I don’t have to read the fic.

...

Not that I was going to anyway, kind of not really interested in his non-starfleet stuff. Well, except for the stuff I’m usng for evolution but that is another fic.

Beast Boy’s spirit and personality soon began to fade away as he was cursed and corrupted by darkness and hatred beyond imagination.

-If that is beyond imagination, then boy howdy do you have a limited imagination.

Finally, he was reborn, as an adult version of himself, an embodiment of darkness and servant to the book.

-A nega pope?

He became COUNT LOGAN

-A name so important, I had to capitalize it.

: A villain who is motivated by grief and regret!

-Never heard of that one before! It’s like the third time you made this!

(It's not because of just Terra dumping him, I think we've already COVERED that. Insist that it's just because Terra dumped him... "You're are dense")

-I empthasised this, not to say “Well, he has a point,” I am empathising the just to point out that it doesn’t really matter in the eyes of the viewer or the reader. See, if you wanted us to believe that it wasn’t just Terra dumping him, then leave out the stalking and the scenes where he gets beaten by the bullies. Leave out the bits where he is pining for her every five minutes. As it stands, it seems that it was only Terra that was responsible.

Hell, by not having Beast Boy talk about his past, all of the above you have said feels like tacked on filler to try and make it seem like it wasn’t the only thing that was affecting him.

A slave to the book,

-I would make a religion joke here, but I want to think I have more aof an appreciation for my audience.

Logan had no choice but to accept his new position fate. He could never go back to the way he was. He was created by evil to SERVE evil (Nothing more)

-and yet still has the mind and body of Beast Boy why? Wouldn’t this be a hinderance to him?

“I am doing as I was created for. These are the wishes of The Dark Prognosticus. I serve it…! This is my fate. The price I had to pay for the way things were. The way I suffered!”

-You will never understand my needs Terra! You will never understand my pain!

(Logan explaining to Terra his position)

That and he may as well use this opportunity to exact VENGEANCE on people who wronged him.

-Hmmmm, died and came back. I could explain my experiences or go on a talk show and make millions. Or I could go evil. Well, evil has cookies.

Using his new powers, Logan began to kill others to understand his might and increase his abilities.

-Understanding through death, makes sense.

He eventually Met Dr. Nekard,

-Must not break down laughing at the name. I will not break down laughing at the name.

whom became his first minion, after which, Logan used the powers of the book to create his other three minions to help him in quest.

-Let’s see, what will we need? A hot sexy general, a lackey with a special power, and a big dumb tough one.

Eventually constructing a castle to serve as their base of operations, located in a realm composes entirely of darkness

-He constructed his own freaking castle...Dude, get out of the evil business and get into evil constructing! You’ll make a mint.

(Reflecting the Count’s heart… cold… miserably… painful)

-Why is it that every description you put in is like a goth kid’s first poetry section!

and his outfit,

-Is the second lamest attempt at a costume I had ever seen and I am a sonic fan.

the way it covers his entire body is because he doesn’t wish to look upon himself (Because he was shamed and ashamed)

-So he was created by the Dark Proboscis, but he still retains enough of his sanity and will to be shamed.Methinks you are trying to have some cake and eat it too.

Poor Logan was a mess; deep down all this was still not helping him, and life itself has become a prison, always reminding him of his betrayal and heartbreaks!

-

Sorry but all of this talk is making me think of pennance. Aka, someone’s bright idea. Someone thought of this, thought it was cool and an interesting take on the character. Someone thought that this was an interesting take on the character.Someone thought this design was a good idea!

He hated it that other people had it better than he did,

-*A slave on Apocolpsy* Yup, having the time of my motherfucking life down here!

and he began to see the worlds and meaningless and worthless!

-Even the planet of the malls?!

However, even death itself could not solve his problems, as even in death there is no escape from the feelings of darkness.

-Exesue?

So incredibly insane, hurt and upset

-No, please go back to how he is feeling things after death.

(As well as it being the wishes of the Dark Prognosticus as well as his own fate)

-No, sop right there! You are saying an emotional impossiblity.

he realized all he could now to end his suffering was to fulfill the Dark Prognosticus’ wishes:

-I said stop! How in the seven hells are you supposed to feel remorse, sadness, and depression while you are dead? What are we using Green Lantern logic now? Because if we are, then you just invalidated a comment you made not too long ago where you said,

“I am not using the rest of the comics because there is no room for those heroes.”

He was going to get revenge by destroying everything that wronged him, took away his happiness and everything he couldn’t stand… Existence itself!

-Thanos steps in, and frowns at him, “That’s my job Logan.”

Logan: No, I’m all power ful and-urrk *Neck snap by the mad titan.*

Thanos: And that was for trying to mooch on my girl Death.

Death of the Endless: *rolls eyes* Fine, one picinic.

Thanos: YAY!!!!! *Skips away*

Before you Thanos fanboys come at me for the previous setch, let me say this...Thanos is my favorite of the Marvel Galatic villians. I make fun of him as often as I do Doom and Dr. Doom is my favorite Comic Book villian of all time.

So he turned to the pages and unleashed the greatest and deadlist spell/prohphecy

-Will someone get this guy a Thesarus...and a dictionary, because he still has no idea what deities are.

within the book, and thus, THE VOID

-~into the void~ *Starts rocking out the kiss music.

was formed which would eventually engulf the entire universe!

-Antimonitor: Hey mack, get out of my line of work  *Wipes Logan from Exsitance* I swear, all of these yutzes standing in my way. Oy Vey, it’s enough to get a brain hemorage.

...

Don’t know why I made the Antimonitor Jewish on that joke.

“What have I done?!” (Logan regretting his actions)

-Ah, see this is classic “My character isn’t bad, really!” actions to try and make you think that he is ok. Here is the problem though...You just talked about how he wants to wipe out his pain and misery, you have put this all on him. You have spent the past few paragraphs into making him into a whiny putz that you don’t have sympathy for, at all.

With the prophecy now in motion, Logan felt content, but deep down he was greatly remorseful.

-I am really happy about this! But also I am vewy sad. Won’t you please pity me!!!!!!!

However, because he was a slave to the Dark Prognosticus, he couldn’t let his emmotions get to him,

-And so he-lets his emotions get to him and he goes off on a mass murdering rampage because he feels angry, hate, despair, loss, and so many other emotions.

so he continued on his path as a way of accepting his position and making the most of things.

-Made the castle into a bacherlor pad, got a hot tub, brought out some game systems, made a theater system, kind of homey actually.

To strengthen the void, Logan and his henchmen killed people and obliterated more worlds themselves to accelerate the void’s expansion.

-This was, in hindsight, really stupid as it will attract attention. He chose to do the smart thing instead and wait it out. It was long, but it was well worth it.

Logan decided Tamaran would be the first world to go, as he was angered by Starfire and Robin, and how their relationship worked and he lost Terra.

-*Bangs head* You just said that this wasn’t just about Terra!!!!!! Look, if you want us to believe that this isn’t about Terra, then leave her out of it. Remove her from this paragraph and your argument is won. Here, I’ll help!

He wanted Starfire to see and feel what it was like ot have everything you ever loved taken away from you

-There, this is all that was neeeded, but by adding in Terra you have ruined you own bleeding argument!!!

“My pain becomes your pain!”

-Here suffer you slave girl who was trapped on a station, lived with the fear of being raped, tortured, and emotionally scarred worst than I am. Feel my pain!!!!

Logan wished the Earth not be destroyed just yet (Maybe tinkered with) mainly because he still has SOME fondness of his homeworld (and Terra was on it)

-*drinks some Romulan Ale* And another thing about your argument, it doesn’t really hold water under-hic-under-hic-srcuntny

Deep down he actually still had feelings for the girl, and his remorse continued to eat at him (Especially after all he had done)

-*drinks some more* see, right there? By saying that he feels about her and that he cares for her, you are making this more and more about Terra. You bearly touch upon anyhting else about his backstory. It’s like you only use it for more emotional baggage. Sorry kid, but that won’t fly.

He eventually captured Terra and brought her to his castle as prisoner, where he would make her watch all the worlds fall and then he would kill her too.

-Then you add this malarky into the mix, giving us more reason to believe that this is solely about Terra. You don’t want us to believe that this is only about her, then ditch her. Remove her from the equation. And *Drinks* I don’t think I can feel my eyes

Plop.

“You wanted Change, Terra? YOU GOT IT!!!”

-You know what would be an interesting twist...if Terra killed herself because of all of this. I mean, she can’t be normal, she is being forced into a superhero role now, and appearently can’t even have her own opinion without causing death. I would be looking out for her, guys.

But this was it. Logan was completely broken, a prisoner not only of his own power but his feelings as well.

-Wich, even though it isnt just about Terra, is revolving around Terra for some odd pecular reason.

After much time of being haunted and feeling extreme guilt of all he had done (Including beheading Flurry Heart as was shown earlier int he fic)

-As well as the sin of wearing that horrible outfit!!!! I mean, my god, that outfit is like one of the worst things I have ever seen in my life!!!!

He had truly seen just how evil and despicable he had become, and he fell into despair worse than anything he had ever had.

-So, let’s go over the dark Prognosticator little plan here.

Pick an emo teen who is convinced that his life is misry and sadness and we should all suffer like he has because no one else in the world has.

Put him under his control so he can destroy everything in exsitance

Instead of giving him a happy life to make control easier, he maks sure that he falls DEEPER into dispair, setting it up for an immintent downfall

Lets him kidnap the girl who is responsible for all of this

?????

Profit!

I am really thinking that this bad guy sucks as plans.

He loved Terra so much, and nothing he could do would change that.

-Wich is why, instead of controlling her, he threw her into a dungeon and made her suffer the torment of watching the world go bye. Truely he is a tragic lover in all of this

He really wished there was some way he could end all this, maybe even reverse it all (Bring back those he killed) and maybe… just maybe, things could be okay again.

-Well, there is always Mykan’s tried and true Dues Ex Machina! Why worry about consequences when there is Dues Ex Machina

However, there were problems regarding all this.

-That he was being written by a writer who thinks that this all you need to make a sympathetic villian?

-Logan could not close the void. Once he had unleashed it… it’s out of his hands. He can’t stop it no matter how much he or may not want to.

-Why?

“The prophecy cannot be stopped. Even I cannot stop it now!”

-Also he was still owned by the Dark Pronogsticus. It was the master, he was the slave. He had no choice but to continue to fulfill the book’s desires. It was what he was created for!

-And in order to do this for peak efficencay, he...kept all of the memories. Again, villian of the year.

-Plus, now that he thought about it, why should he stop? He’s come this far. It’s too late to go back, and he’s got nothing to gain by going back anyway.

-Are you feeding us information or giving us story beats, because this is all stuff we can glance over as we read this stuff. Then again, considerign your prose is usually very dull and dry.

Count Logan will never be a redeemable villain no matter how many times you claim he is/will be. (Words of a mocker)

-Gee, think its because of the whole entire baby killing; thing?

That’s how they all treated him while he just BB, the same way you’re treating him now. (My argument)

-So your argument is, since they treated hi bad once in a while that it is ok for him to go genocidal on us all?

So what’s he got to gain by stopping? Nothing but more heartache, more misery, pain, and all the things that what started all this in the first place.

-*Puts on psycological glasses*  Now, maybe we should start talking about your psycogolgical issues.

Joking aside, while this kind of thinking is ok for a villian, it’s generally more accepted if the villian had some sort of charisma or was really  symptatpetic to us readers. This allows us to understand their plight. However, the way Beast Boy is written in this, feels more like his just crying his eyes out for nothing, especially in comparison to his fellow heroes.

He can never move on, (He has nothing to move on to) There is nothing to be gained from quitting, only lost.

-Except freedom, help, and a lovely new vacation in the bahamas. But, then again, this is the weakest villian I have met.

Since the prophecy could not be stopped…

-For reason’s hereto unexplained.

He couldn’t free himself from his bond with the book…

-Even though, later on we see him break the connection by just having a new bad guy take it up.

And he felt he had come too far to quit and had nothing to gain by stopping… Logan regarded his remorse as pointless, and he continued on destroying things (But his remorse continued to eat away at him and it pained him dearly)

-So, he hated to destroy, but he kept on anyway even though it did nothing to help him...You know, there is a proper way to do this. If any of you have a favorite villian that has this persona, please write it down in the comments below.

As Logan continued with his plans he had lied to his henchmen.

-Jerk!

He told them that after all worlds were destroyed, he would build whole new worlds with peace and happiness that THEY could enjoy “With none of the icky stuff” as the minions put it.

-Define icky stuff, and if you could please do it as an adult, that would be great thanks.

When In actuality, he is planning on leaving it all in ruin and perishing along with it, feeling he has nothing left to live for and is too upset and ashamed with what he has done to go on anyway. (Though he cared deeply for his minions)

-You know, you could skip steps one through three by just letting the void do it’s job. You would win...you would succeed.

To him, the world just held no meaning, no joy, and nothing to exist for as it pained him so much. There was nothing at all that could save him now…

…Nothing!

-*Aighs*

VEWING

-Viewing what? Am I supposed to see something?

Count Logan is a very unique figure to the heroes and the ponies.

-Wait, what? How? He sounds like generic villian 587 to me. Doesn’t seem all that different from any other villian who has the “Woe is me and my life, how much misery do I have suffer in order for me to have my life fufilled.”

He is the only enemy they have ever faced who is driven by sadness

-What?

What?!

WHAT???!

I...I just. I am trying my best to not use Mr. Freeze because that one is too easy! Oh god, there are just so many that are motivated by sadness it isn’t even funny. I mean, isn’t that like one of the three big motivators for villians? Insanity, rage, and sadness leading to a desire for revenge?

Dude, do not try and anyalize a comic book villian if your only connection to the universe is a freaking cartoon show!

and remorse, rather than a lust for power or control.

-Hmmm, I count Sombra as one of the ones motivated purely by control. Starlight was motivated by the sadness of losing her only friend, Tempest was by the fact everyone shunned her after getting scared, And then we have some of the DC villians. I mean, shoot, just one season of the Flash will give you plenty of villians motivated by sadness and heartbreak.

He created the void out of bitterness and heartbreak.

-But again, Terra was not a determining factor. Remember that.

All he wanted to was end his suffering (Something that only NON-EXISTANCE could make happen)

-Still don’t know how you feel anything while dead or why the book picked a winy teenager instead of any of the heartless other bad guys out there in the DC universe.

He at first seems to be a stereotypical, heartless villain, with no feelings or regard for anyone or anything!

-And he is. Thank you for agreeing with me.

Only now to be understood; Logan is in fact an emotionally tortured person which makes him less evil than he appears

-PFFFFTT!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

Ok class, sit around, it’s time for another lesson in writing. From an ACTUAL writer and not some chump who thinkgs that writing is something that you just do to relieve yourself og pain.

Just because you understand a person and their actions, does not make him a tragic villian. It doesn’t make him less evil, just because you know his actions. Look at Dr. Doom. He lost his mother and that is his big motivation, does this mean that we should see his desire to conqure the world as less evil? NO! It is still freaking evil.

You want to make a tragic and sympathetic villian, fine. That is perfectly fine and dandy, some of my favorite villians of all time are tragic villlians, but don’t try to force it onto us. Look, Magneto is a very tragic villian, but his past doesn’t hide the fact that he still KILLED an entire ship of people and would wipe out all homo sapiens if he had the chance.

(His actions are not justifiable but they are understandable)

-No, they are not. Doing this because your mother is held by the devil, understandable. Because you feel that the Kryptonian is misusing his power while you are incapable of understanding the basic thought of genuine kindness, understandable. Doing this because you found out that your whole freaking life was a lie and that it was all because some electric company wanted you to lead them to a promise land and that the greed of humanity is making you inot a horrible person? Understandable. KEfka...is not understandable and is just scary.

He is a tragic, sadistic and hopeless character, whose evil deeds, hatred of worlds and lust for destruction were all born from the purest of emotions… LOVE.

-If you have to tell us this, congratualtions, you failed in making a really tragic character. What’s more, by not showing us any real remorse, we don’t really feel that he is...

Wait...

LOVE!!!!!!!

You mean, you just went on a few minutes, tellin us about how this was tragedy and all of that jazz, just to break it down to love?!!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSpcXtFe1Jo

All he ever wanted was to be truly loved and understood, instead he always got the exact opposite of all this. The Titans negligence and pushy ways pushed him over the edge.

-Looks at all of the times Beast Boy is paling around with the gang( Oh yeah, I can so totally see that. I mean it is so obivious that Beast Boy was negelted and was painfully pushed on.

Will you please stop pushing your own agenda onto a character?

The Titans, as well as others are responsible for creating Count Logan and bringing forth all the chaos.

-So our sympathies lie with them since they are trying to save people and stop this while he is basically letting himself be pushed around.

-THEY were harsh with him

-THEY drove him insane

-You know the problem with the above? If I wasn’t a fan of the show, I would be questioning this with the question of where is the proof.

-THEY caused him to lose faith which allowed the book to curse him

-Again, even though the book had a billion other canditates, this whiny putz was more worthy.

*At the titans and Terra* "...You did this!" (That is what I'm aiming for in the story: It's more THEIR fault all this is happening... though it doesn't excuse BB's actions either)

-And you...failed. Hard. It isn’t even funny with how hard you failed at bringing this important message to life. Why? Because we never really see him remorseful for his actions and evrrything he does in this feels more like everyoen is at fault for not bowing to him and treating him like a god because he has had a bad life. Oh boo hoo hoo. We are so saddened by something that obiviously doesn’t really affect him. This totally makes us sympathetic to his cause and think that the titans, who only wanted him to move on, are the bad guys in this.

and NOOOOOOOO... regardless of what you may pretend to think (Without hurting yourselves)

-And this also hurts your argument, because now it makes you look like a child. Well, you are one.

I was trying to justify BB's actions,

-You know, if you just read what you write once in a while, I wouldn’t have as much fun as I am now.

I'm just trying to say that his actions were UNDERSTANDIBLE. (Not that it matters, since you people are still whining about it anyway)

-I am not whining, I’m complaining. Do you want to hear whining?

Thank you Rarity.

Ra: You are welcome darling.

So now it's clearer... I suggest people learn to READ and not judge.

-Translation: Let my character alone! He is pure and untouchable! Stop trying to hurt his feelins by insultin him! You are all monsters who need to learn better! WAHHHHHHHHH!

Sorry, but we read and we interpit. You don’t want that, then don’t write it.

Until next Time... I leave you vids that have Logan in them...

-Oh joy. Welll, lets see what we got here tonight!!

Mykan out.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=176&v=d63QJZ1OP9E

-Ehh, the song is a little too depressing and doesn’t really match up. The lyrics are a bit dull and lifeless.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=42&v=SbMlE9LEQWE

-Jared Leto, please do not give this guy a dead rat, he doesn’t deserve it.

Anyway, this song doesn’t really work. This is a whiny little brat who is striking out against the world just because he doesn’t get what he wants. The song talks about the futility of war, about it affects the soldiers beyond what we see, and how it hurts everyone. There is no favorites in war, only titles that we give ourselves anf what others tell us we are. And in the end, war will will change us all.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_BbyyXBVPw

-I apologize for Les Mis fans. He probably never really watched the show at all. But if I am right, this is again talking about tragedy and the loss og friends who moved on. This is not all about you screaming out about how thee guys are wrong.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=QMLEoJqeAeg

-*BANG!* You do not sully one of the most important days in human history with your slime.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=1V01K51igO4

-Somedays I wonder if he actually watches these musicals or jut listens to the songs.

Now then, unlike the Bio I made for him (Because I spied on people and saw they're getting ready to riff him... like fish to the hook)

-Hey, sorry I was late to the party but work was literally zapping the comedy out of my body.

Now I'm going to give my own insights on what I made The End of Ends like it was.

-HAHAHA!!! Buddy, once it is out there, any and all interpitations belong to us the readers. We do not care about you.

And remember... It's NOT just because BB was dumped by Terra, but that plus an and entire life of hardship, tragedy, heartbreak, misery and shameful people treating him wrong.

-Sadly, since you use the “Greatest emotion of all, love” line, you made it more about Terra than what you were going for, sorry, but them’s the breaks kid.

Firstly, people like to tell me how wrong I am about how the Titans treat Beast Boy,

-You kind of are. Big Time. It’s like saying Misty is a bitch while forgetting the rest of her character traits. That is called, ‘flanderization.’ not that you would know anything about that, right?

perhaps they are wrong, but it makes no difference to me.

-I love how this is never about you and how you are wrong. No, it’s all on us.

Remember, my RULE OF ONE SIDE

-Ah yes, that stupid rule.

It's all ONE or all THE OTHER, not both-

-Because that is how humanity works! Remember, there is only one type of person and a person acts only like one way all of the time. He never changes or has his moments of kindness.

Sometimes the Titans are nice to him, sometimes they are mean to him.

-It’s like humanity has different emotions and feelings throughout their lifetimes and it takes more than just a few days to get to know a person.

  Not anymore, it's either all one or all the other.

-Aren’t you glad I am not making a politcal joke right now? I so could but I refuse!

 They are either all bad or all good.

-Yeah, its not like I know of good people back where I used to work and I can tell you about them, but they were all bad. Yep, no good at all. Or I would say that if I were a jerk.

  (And if they are all bad, then anything good that's ever happened is now null and void to me "It means nothing")

- That’s right. Even if you do good oout there people, according to Mykan logic, you are already bad and must be punished. Don’t try and redeem yourself or make yourself better, just bask in the glow of your own villany, or better yet...

Like I also told you before, Beast Boy respected Terra's wishes and let her go (Be it I wrote it that way or not) and for that... I'm going to beat him up.

-And people wonder if the scene on Fall was a paraelle to how the characters feel about Mykan abandoning them and treating them like garbage

 You know the rules in my world- If a guy loses a girl and it really steams me, then the guy will not only be denied having any happiness in his life BY ME,

-Because you are the high allmighty master of the realm and we must all obey you, or else. Yadda yadda. We know, and that they must follow your evil whims or be punished because they can’t have lives or do what you lack the courage to do you mangy coward.

 the following must go into effect.

-And here we go, you might want to get some hot chocolate. Most likely, you heard this one before

-He lives a long and pointless life, with nothing but scorn from others, unappreciated, and loses more than he gains all the time (This way, he'll have nothing to gain by moving on)

-Even if it makes no sense, it’s completely OOC, and really just ends up demeaning the character in the end. Hey as long as my sense of worth is built back up.

-Have a super falling out with those who were once his friends. Again, I don't care if people say his friends never treated him that way, MY RULES ARE MY RULES.

 -I would like to imagine when he says these things that he has his fingers in his ear and screaming “Can’t hear you!!!”

You break them, and I'll break you

-Heh, these characters are stronger than you think. They won’t break so easily.

 (The cartoon character) and Common Sense and good judgment won't save you this time.

-You know, when you say this, you are just saying that you have no common sense or good judgement. Wich kind of says a lot by your standards.

-He must become an Anti-Hero by choice, or become the primary antagonist (Usually NOT by choice) There was no "Yes or No" when it came to that book. It chose him, and that was it. "The choice is not yours"

-Deconstructed that out the window. Although, I do want to go for another round on that one.

 -Do not reconcile with former friends. The friendship is shattered... FOREVER,

-Yes, because that’s how it works. That is so how life works for those of you who are usually insane in the membraine.

end of story. Even if I wrote it so BB agreed to help the others face Draken in the final battle, in the end,

-It doesn’t even matter!

Sorry, in a Linkin Park mood

he would still wish NEVER to makeup and reconcile with them, balk at their desires to want to make up with him, and just leave,

-Only to cry about it a little later on his blog about how much they suck and are cruel and he wants his momma.

so they'll all feel dejected, hurt, and Terra can be heart-broken (Hopefully irreparably like how she did to him.)

-Either that or they all party like crazy while he is gone and get Kid Flash as a replacement.

-If reconciliation looks hopeful, the dude must die.

-Wow, you are a giant monster aren’t you? I mean, there is evil, there is cruel, and then there is you.

  That way he STILL can't reconcile with his friends, and they can still be hurt (That's why I killed BB on Friendship is Failure #3, so the potential will never be.)

-And yet it still felt like it did in the end. See, this is what happens when you try to do something that you just aren’t  good at.

Yeah, I know (I can tell without reading) a lot of you are insulting me right now

-Actually, I am making a soundtrack for Fall arc 1. Trying my best to think of a good Dislestia theme that I have.

and saying how much my rules suck. Well it sucks to be you then. "When you read in my world, you'll read by my rules."

-And the problem with that is, the moment we came here, it became our world too.

And the rule stands for BB or any guy in a couple I deeply supported: "Get the Girl... or Get punished!"

-Even if they don’t really have that much in common or are really all thatgood together, they must get together.

But remember, Terra is not the only factor.

Now, as for Logan himself, people also complain "He's too stuish and overpowered"

-I’m not complaining. I like OP bad guys. It makes me excited to kick thier asses. It feels so good that there are strong bad guys for me to kick. Because to me, a god is just another face for me to kick. If there is a dinosaur in the ice, then I want to teach it to balance atop a ball and-

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wh8ii9AFdSQ

Well, he kinda HAS to be, and for several reasons.

-Because I am an unoriginal hack who has no idea how tension works.

1: He is supposed to have the tittle

-I am going to be mature and not laugh at that mistake. I will not laugh and move on.

of "An Evil that is beyond ALL imagination"

-Its a shame that he isn’t, not really. Shishio, Kefka, Sephiroth, hell even Garland are more badass and evil beyond all imagination than this guy. At worst, he’s Kylo Ren.

  (Regaurdless of whatever wangasty, bitchiness, or emo slurrs people wish to mock him with)

-Oh please, as if I resort to slurs. I let the other people and my betters do that for me. I prefer to deconstruct.

 With a title like that, he SHOULDN'T be that easy to beat or even scratch,

-Ah, but with everything, there has to be a balance. Go too far one way and he’ll seem too invinvable and not very believable that the heroes can win. And when you go too far where you are taking out power houses from the cannon verse. Well, then it goes way to far and makes it look less like the villian is powerful and just an over bearing boss.

For example, Freiza was just the right mix of super powered while making it believable that he could be taken down. Dio is the same way.

 otherwise he's just another MOTW. (Monster of the Week)

-We know how Acronyms work.

  He has to be really strong, fierce, and deadly, to hold up a reputation like that

-Or just be poweful and intimating.

(Something that NO MLP villian ever did with me... not even Sombra or the Storm king)

-Wait, so the tops for you are Storm King and Sombra? SOMBRA AND STORM KING! Look I love Storm King and all, he’s a fun and silly villina, but tops on the mlp roster he is not. Hell, Tempest stole the show from him! And you put the dreaded Even on him as if he was some sort of powerhouse of MLP villians?

I'm just doing this now to mock the Storm King (Practically all MLP villains...)

-Oh this is going to be fun. Allow me to start with some Storm King questions.

*Picture Logan talking to the Storm King*

*The storm king wishes to help Logan, feeling he become more powerful if they teamed up*

Storm King: Wait, why would I want to work with this guy. He’s kind of...emo and depressing. He’ll cramp my style! Besides, he just isn’t that marketable. I mean, look at that armor, my stocks will plummet from the idea alone!

Logan: "In your world, they call you "A King?"

S.K: Well, acutally they call me the boss. I am trying to get King Trademarked but the lawyers say I don’t have a case. No good snakes.

Logan: "In mine... we would call you "a child"

Storm King: Me, a child? Oh that’s funny coming from mr. Livejournal. I have something you don’t, emo boy. Personality. Yeah, Tempest may outshine me in the movie, but lets face it...at least I’m fun. You just cry every five minutes and say how we all need to bow to you.

"An arrogant, demanding, blinded child!

Storm King: Are...are you ignoring me? I just insulted you and you are just going off on your tagent?

Do you really think that you can come to me with a proposition, assumed that I even WANT or NEED your help? Storm King...!

Storm King: Hey, you came to me, appearently to mock me. You must not have much to do.

  *Chuckles* Oh, forgive me... "Your highness." You said we understood each other... You COULD NOT be more wrong!"

Storm King: You’re right, we don’t understand each other. Give me a moment. *Snaps fingers* Tempest?

Tempest: *rolls eyes* Yes, master.

Storm King: Write me a sob story.

Tempest: *Frowns, and uses her magic to type up a story* Here ya go boss. I’m going to go get hosed.

Storm King: Ahem...My mother abused me until I was 10, leaving me to fend for myself. All the while I craved the kind touch of someone, anyone out there. It was soon that I realized that by letting others follow me, I could make the world care for me and love me like I always wanted. This also helped to fill in the loss of my father and friends, who always seemed to dissappear whenever I got close to anyone. I decided to become king in order to make the world love me.

There, now I have a sad sack story, now we understand each other.

Logan: "I understand you; your petty quest for bits of power... your need to conquer... your desires! But you... don't see me."

Storm King: *Blinks* I see you, right there. You are standing there, in front of me.

Logan: "Oh, but I am, especially in one particular way: I've EARNED my title and my position. You've been GIVEN yours, Storm King.

Storm King: Weren’t you given your power because a book saw you and thought that you were perfect for the host. Then it GAVE you the power to wipe out existance? That sounds like you were given the power to me. Right Tempest?

Tempest: *slurred* Too drunk to care!!!!!

Storm King: See? You were also given the power to make all of this by that book.Were it not for the book you would be just little Beast Boy!

I... am a true embodiment of darkness... and you're just a little boy."

Storm King: If the embodiment of darkness is a whiny 17 year-old...I need a new line of work.

Logan *Cuts in&: "You are excused... *Taps his Cane for his minions to come* Take him away, and dispose of him."

Storm King: Don’t bother, I’m out! Have fun with your destruction or whatever. By the way, my assasstant emptied your booze storage.

Tempest: ~HEre we are, the princessess of the universe~

Whoo! That felt good... now moving on...

-Awww, but I was having fun putting in the actual Storm King personality and ignoring your horribly adapted piece of material. Yeah, I know he stole it. Don’t know where, but I know he stole the dialouge.

2: He's so overpowered: Well... um, in case you didn't notice

-Yeah, I kind of been skimming the original...kind of boring if you ask me.

"He's trying to LITERALLY obliterate the universe" and in a short time as well (A matter of weeks)

-Do not get me started on your little timeline shennigans!

Don't you think you need an awful lot of power for that--

-The empire did it with only a small planetoid.

to destroy planets whole, shatter multiple stars with one strike, wipe out a million races just like that. You need LOTS of power for that.

-Eh, just a planet sized planet buster and you’re good.

And remember... It's NOT just because BB was dumped by Terra,

-But it is, I’m just trying to lie my pants off.

but that plus an and entire life of hardship, tragedy, heartbreak, misery and shameful people treating him wrong.

-i.e nobody kissing his ass and treating him like a king.

  He's angry, insane, and hurt, and he wishes to stop the pain and get revenge at the same time... Killing himself simply, will not do it (As spirits can feel pain as well, and eventually the spirits of others would join him in death...

-WHAT?!

 but through NON-EXISTENCE, that won't happen)

-Antimoniter: Ok, now I am gonna sue somebody.

Also, getting back to the Titans, and my STILL being wrong about the way they treated

-Oh joy, more “They hurt my cinnamon roll!!!!”

 Beast Boy, I still don't care. The goal of the story was to make it more THEIR FAULT all that destruction happened

 -So to prove your point, you had to lie, falsifie evidence, make faulty excuses, and trick the audience.

(They drove BB off the edge... which made the book curse him... which brought forth the destruction)

-It was all their fault and not the whiny crybaby in the corner who wants everyone to kow tow to his needs!!!!

"You did it, Titans"

-You know, this would be the point where ever one gives him a bitch slap.

And being nice to BB won't drive him off the edge, will it? and it also won't make it look more like their faults like I want it to be.

-Again, so you have to lie in order to make your story work. Have you not seen the problem with this?

That's pretty much the basic idealism I have and want to see in fiction.

-So, you are bringing out ideals and making things seem brighter?

 You tell me, "The Titans are his friends... Never treated him like that... ect, ect" I don't care.

-And I know you don’t care. Hell, this hasn’t been about making you mad, fixing you, or anything else. This has beenn purely for the enjoyment of somepeople who want a good laugh.

You tell me "He's overpowered, a stu, an unredeemable villain." Still not caring...

-Not caring, yadda yadda. How much you want to bet he is going to say that this isn’t a version of him.

I like him just how he is. and NOOOOO... he isn't a version of me,

-*Claps* Thank you for proving my faith in you.

because I do not wish to destroy ACTUAL REAL worlds or kill people in real life.

-Nope, but let’s look at the facts. He represents your ideals (No redemption, no forgiveness), he represents your hate (Terra doesn’t get together with him, he despises the Titans), he is a force of your creation that is to provide release for your own pain (Wich you admit as such), and is a whiny little brat who has to deal with the fact that no one is treating him right and he wants to be held.

Yep, that is you. It doesn’t even need to be the killing world or powers to be you. But it’s the real important thing. If you didn’t want it to be you, then you need to ditch the persona.

Killing fictional people is just part of the story (The story is no good without it) doesn't Count.

-Points to the above statement*

"Yes it does, and a it makes you a sick little freak that should be locked up"

-Hey, when you make all of the insults for me...

Again, I say... No it doesn't.

-You should actually pay attention to what you write you  know. People can so easily use it against you.

This is my world, and what I say goes... and I say, if you don't like it, then take a hike and take your so-called "Common Sense" with you!

-Very well idoit!!!!

Until next time, Mykan out!

 -Waves by.

[legendbringerlove]

After reading a certain tag...

You know what? I am sorry accusation fics, I am so sorry. All of the shit you say about the mane six and all of that stupidity? That makes sense compared to insulting a character for the crie of fighting a person who killed his friend. It’s damn near Einstien, compared to people being mad at Ospin for his body transference move.

My god, I wonder what they do for Dragonball Z? 

No...don’t think about that.

[legendbringerlove]

You know what...

After reading the RWDE complaints about Jaune...

Those two blogs I read from Cloudy and Present aren’t that bad!

[legendbringerlove]

About the season 1 and 2 thing

Ok, one last thing related to my eariler blog...

I know I laugh and joke when I read something that is referenced from season 1 that gets disproven in a later season, but that is all it is, a simple gag. But then I see it in a review, like its something important. Look, we get it...it’s material that was written back in season one, move on!!!!! The characters aren’t written as if they are season one, or two, or whatever the frak you want. They are just being written as a character.

God, next thing you know, you’ll tell me that I am writing a superhero comic in a _______ style

[legendbringerlove]

*Facepalm* Sweet mother macree...

A character grows and changes throughout the story. That is the simple fact of life. It has to happen or else the show will stagnate. This is nothing new, for this is how the world works. It’s not a bad thing, but a thing that can help you grow as a writer to help adjust to the story at hand. 

However, I have to disagree with This little post here (https://www.fimfiction.net/blog/786466/today-and-the-future) as it feels like he is trying to say “The later seasons make sure that you can’t really through any new interpitations of the characters,” or worse “The later seasons make it hard to create conflicts in fanfics”. To wich I have to say is really...bullcrap! 

Let’s see here, conflicts that would make interesting stories for the mane six in less than five seconds of thought!

World font of magic being in danger, the mane six have to struggle through it while facing the fact that they are growing older and maybe further apart.

Pinkie discovers that there are different forms of comedy out there (Based on Babylon 5)

Applejack has to deal with a hidden part of her family’s legacy and wants to deal with it alone (Yeah, pride is still a flaw of hers)

Rainbow Dash struggles with her own limits as a racer.

And those are just on the back burner. I didn’t need to set it during season 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, or what have you. I am just writing a story with six mares that I have come to love. No, they don’t have to setttle it amicably, they can create different conflicts because of their persona. You can still have Fluttershy’s timid nature, she might be a little braver, but she is still shy. Twilight still has freakouts, Dash might be better, but she is still arrogant. These are flaws that stick with the characters through life. Unless you are someone who watches Sailor moon all the way through stars and goes “Yep, Usagi has nothing left to do now she beat Chaos. Yep, time to go home.” 

No,no,no, and NO! That is stifling your creativity because you are trying to stick to rules! Guess what? In about 10 years, this aint gonna mean crap! You are just going to watch a show and love that characters. Then you are gonna decide to write a fic based on it, danmed the consequences, and damn the coninuity straight to hell! 

I will never get these reviews of certain fics that say “Well, this is set during season 1, or 2, or yadda yadda”. Personally, I just know I am reading a fic and I do not care if I am reading a story set during this season. The only way I’ll know is if Twilight has wings, castle, or a student. That is the only thing for me. 

Maybe it’s because I’m old, or read more magna, or just am a fan of comics so I don’t ever see the point in saying these things. 

The long and short of this rant is this...Do you love the characters? Do you like to write stories? Then do it! They already have the depth you need to give them some punch. Send them on an adventure, give them challenges. You want EG shining to be a poliece officer? Fine! You want Zephyr to be different in EG? Then fine! Slap an AU on the thing or plead ignornace! Or hey, if you want to say that the show ended for you on episode 125 with scene 4, then go ahead and start your wild and crazy AU there and have a blast!

I am sorry for ranting here, but I would rather do it on the platforms where my fans don’t know I live so I can not feel like I am attacking anyone. 

[legendbringerlove]

I want to say something...

If this starts getting more people to me and talking to me, I want to be let it known. This is not a politcal blog, a drama blog, or a “fandom suxs” blog. This is dedicated to the art and love of writing. Both professional and amature. This means, you keep your little fandom drama to yourself. I quiet frankly do not care about what the Stephen Universe fandom is doing right now. I do not want to hear that “The internet is ending because of bill #4949″ “The net is ending because asshole just did this” or even “The world is ending because the president in power at this moment just picked his nose.” You keep that far away from this blog.

Instead, if you must ask or talk to me about something then please, talk about your favorite film. Or talk about how awesome this classic game is. If you must talk about your fandom, then tell me the good things about it; like the artwork or the fics. I don’t want to be depressed anymore and I don’t think you want to either.

[lordofthesacks]

My mother says that fanfiction doesn’t count as reading because “it isn’t nearly as good as the stuff that’s published. You’re not going to find something online that will win a Booker Prize.” Please reblog if you count fan fiction as reading, or if the fanfiction you’ve read is equally as good as published novels. I want to see the figures.

[enrichmentpumpkin]

*crushes mouse while hitting reblog button*

[mrsscruffynerfherder]

Fanfic is not *as* good. Lots of times it’s better. Much, much, much better.

[dimplesandcurlsss]

Ive read fanfics that have literally made me change the direction of my life for the better. seriously. there are incredible writers out there, it’s insanity. 

[sindri42]

90% of everything is shit. In theory, officially published work has editors filter out most of the shit, but in practice that doesn’t work too well (see: numerous masterpieces denied by every publisher, mediocre works which used to be great before they got meddled with for “wider appeal”, shit like Twilight and Fifty Shades).

Fanfiction is straight from the source, unfiltered content creation in vast quantities. Which means that yeah, 90% of it is shit. But a given piece of fanfic isn’t any less likely to be a masterpiece than any given original manuscript, so simple statistics tells you that multiplying that same small fraction by a fucking huge volume of work means you inevitably get a lot of truly magnificent fanfics.

[legendbringerlove]

This is why fanfics are one of my main ways of writing.
