intro

hiiii! i'm riri. she/her. 24. SWANA. perpetual immigrant. woman in STEM. intersectional feminist. muslim.

i'm a fic writer (and academic, ig), i've been on tumblr on-and-off for about 10 years now, and i've finally decided to make a proper intro post!

i'm someone who tends to jump between fandoms quite often, but my current favs are DC, Arcane, Resident Evil, RWRB, Heated Rivalry, JJK, and AOT.

i haven't posted anything dark yet, but i am darkfic friendly. if you have a problem with that, feel free to block me. this also means that if you're a minor, i don't want to see you in my notes. if you interact without your age in your bio, you will also be blocked. if you are in any way a zionist or in support of israel, also see yourself out. if you're anti-immigrant, anti-feminist, homophobic, islamophobic, or in any other way bigoted, DNI.

masterlist below the cut :-

DC:

In The Red [IP][MC} (ao3)

Syncopate [IP][MC] (ao3)

Arcane:

nothing yet...

Resident Evil:

RWRB:

Party on You [C][OS] (ao3)

Heated Rivalry:

JJK:

AOT:

hi this drives me crazy

canon is what happens in the text. e.g. merlin tries to poison morgana

a headcanon is a fact that you have personally made up as an elaboration of canon. it is your invention. e.g. i think morgana and gwen had a teenage lesbian situationship before the events of canon. or, i think modern morgana would love evanesence.

an interpretation is how one reads the existing text. it is not an invented fact nor is it a headcanon, it is a reading. e.g. i think merlin tries to poison morgana out of misplaced self-hatred. or, i think that one line was delivered with suppressed malice and shows a nuanced relationship.

fanon is the general fandom’s accepted headcanons and interpretations that elaborate or recontextualize canon. e.g. merlin is a badass waif and morgana is a bitch.

these are all different words with different meanings.

the problem with writing a lot of body horror is thinking even more about body horror. and i feel like I have a pretty good tolerance for that stuff but I really think im gonna have to go vegetarian for a while bc animal products are starting to really look like animals to me rn....

if supergirl 2026 has 1000 fans, i am one of them. if supergirl 2026 has 100 fans, i am one of them. if supergirl 2026 has 10 fans, i am one of them. if supergirl 2026 has no fans, i'm dead.

the thing that annoys me the most about the supergirl hate is that when superman came out last year my (instagram) feed was flooded with hopecore and people hyping it up, "kindness is punkrock" and everyone was seemingly so inspired to do good, they all loved that superman defeated a rich person and stood up for the oppressed. there was still hate for the movie but the positivity drowned it out

now that its supergirl, all i've seen is hate with very little defense which is insane because how could people not like sex traffickers being beat up? why would we not want women to do good things? there just isnt enough hype for this movie, and i genuinely think that the people who have seen it and still hate it, unless they have a VERY good reason, are simply sexist, because most of them don't have a reason outside of "Shes annoying"

[notririreal]

ive been mad since I watched it bc of this 🫩

[itsdeanwinchester]

Supergirl (2026) is about girls and daughters and women. It's about messy girls, vulnerable girls, strong girls, scared girls. And, last but not least, it's about girls protecting girls. And it's all important.

"lock in" is probably one of the most important phrases to enter the public lexicon in the 2020s
