Hi,

It’s you friendly neighbor fanfic author here. In the light of this apparent new trend of people feeding unfinished fics to AI to get an “ending,” and some people even talking about “blanket permissions,” let me just say this:

I EXPLICITLY FORBID ANYONE TO FEED MY FICS TO AI. DUDE, THAT IS ABOUT THE LEAST RESPECTFUL THING YOU CAN DO. IF YOU DO IT, SHALL YOU BE EXCOMMUNICATED FROM YOUR FANDOM AND WALK ON LEGOS BAREFOOT TILL THE END OF DAYS.

That is my anti-permission.

Thank you for your attention.

[bumblewyn]

if you have a blanket permission statement on your profile for fanart/spinoffs/remixes/etc., consider adding something like this:

Hello I just reread your fic on ao3 the an object in motion stays in motion and it said it was part one and it wasn’t complete? So I was just wondering if your extending it? Or why is it labeled as not finished? Thank you! Your fic was gorgeous and I looooove it!!!

Hi lovely! I’m so glad you loved my fic! I’ve had a bunch of requests to do some missing scenes from the Twinyards’ perspective, so I marked it as unfinished just almost as a reminder to myself to work on the extra pieces!

When It All Feels So Big

“Remember,” Bee reminds them as they approach their neighbor’s house, “Abby and David adopted Neil only a month ago, so this is his first time meeting some new friends. He’s only a year younger than you. Be nice, okay? And don’t push too much if he’s shy. If you don’t know if he’ll be okay with a hug or something like that, just ask him yes or no first.”

“Okay,” the twins chorus back, before sprinting towards the door in hopes of pressing the doorbell first.

(Aaron wins, but it’s a close thing.)

“Well hello, kiddos!” Abby answers the door with a grin. “David! Kevin! Neil! The Dobsons are here!”

Tell Me To Hold On

Neil Josten and Andrew Minyard have always been inevitable. But what if they found each other just a little sooner?

(Andrew never met Neil until their time, but Abram Davis haunts them both.)

Morning Bells Are Ringing

Bram loves it when Simon sings their daughter to sleep, but the irony of his husband singing Frère Jacques is not lost on him.

Voicemails to the Dead

“Alright, I’m just going to say this straight out. We found Riko Moriyama’s phone.” “Okay.” all the laughter has faded from Jeremy’s voice, “What about it?” “There’s some… messages… that we found. And we thought it would be best to give them to you. Kevin should have emailed you the audio files we extracted just now, and you can give them a listen.” “Messages? What? Neil, what aren’t you telling me?” “They’re… fairly recent. From within the last year. And… they’re from Jean.”

And I Won’t Run Away

Maybe some part of his subconscious will always long for the wild gray-eyed boy that smelled of leather and cigarette smoke. Maybe Sirius in turn yearns for the lanky freckle-faced boy whose every word overflowed with mischief. If that’s the case, what kind of consolation prize is a melancholic professor whose defining trait is the ability to tear himself apart on a whim?

Selfishly, Remus loves him still.

How Many Simons in the Universe

"I'm sure that in a parallel universe, there's a Simon and Baz who are lying in the exact same way and the exact same place."
