We write for ourselves, but we post for others.

(this came out of a conversation in the comments on a previous post about an author threatening to stop updating a fic because of lack of engagement)

So there’s this idea that fic writers should write for themselves and not care too much about stats or engagement,

and i totally get the sentiment behind that. if writing becomes entirely about stats and external validation, something important does get lost - creative freedom and joy, conviction in your own writing

but i also think:

“i write for myself, but i post for others.”

because posting fic is not only self-expression. it’s social. ao3 is called an archive, but emotionally it often functions as a community space.

people post for connection, for participation, for others to bear witness to their pain and trauma and grief,

and i don’t think most people are asking to be admired so much as acknowledged. there’s something deeply human about wanting another person to encounter something that mattered to you and go:

“ok, yeah, I see what you were trying to say. I see you.”

especially because fanfic is often people processing very real feelings through fictional characters at a safe distance, one step removed,

and then uploading that deeply personal thing into a shared archive and hoping somebody else might connect with it.

And i think that’s why it hurts so much when you summon up the courage and post a fic into the void and you get nothing back,

and then it’s like,

does anyone see me? does anyone even care?

worst part of anxiety/ocd is that sometimes your fears actually do happen and you have to wag your finger at i like this still doesn't prove you're right asshole. it's like having a venom symbiote except you don't even get to have gay alien sex

Reverse Fae AU

Introducing: fae!Eclipse! -He was once a fae king but his subjects rebelled and banished him when he became too cruel/dangerous.  Now he is determined to build up a new kingdom to rule over again. -His former subjects forced iron shackles onto his wrists, which can’t be removed by either physical or magical force, in an attempt to weaken him (and as part of his punishment/banishment.)  At first, it seemed to work, but out of sheer stubbornness, hate, and spite he trained himself to develop a tolerance to iron such that it didn’t greatly affect him anymore (except for minor pain with physical contact, which he can mostly ignore).  Now he wears an iron crown and iron rings to show off his acquired tolerance, regain his kingly air, and as a way to boast/broadcast his power and strength. The crown and rings can be removed easily but the shackles cannot.

Here he is with the reverse fae boys and Yin for size comparison X3 He's inspired by a specific species of cricket called Schizodactylus monstrosus or "dune cricket." I did give him long antennae at first but decided against it in the end :3
