I guess this is what fanfic authors do now, so here I am. Currently obsessing over The Sandman.

This is exactly what I wanted to see in the finale. The film was completely devoid of any emotion. They deserved at least an embrace. A desperate, long-awaited one, full of love, the desire to protect, and to love forever… Perhaps with tears, but tears of relief, as well as the longing from a long separation...

Fuck yes

[sonata-ix]

Will there be an update soon for Chocolate Ladybugs?

Oh hey there anon you're back!

No I have apparently decided to compete with GRRM for longest period without writing anything. 😭

But really, I had to step up caregiving duties for my aging parents and it doesn't leave me much mental energy for writing. Someday I'll have my life back but probably not for good reasons. 🫠

I love it when fan fiction writers are like: “ah shit, this was meant to be one part but I started writing it and now it has to be three”. Like the fanfic is happening to them and not being created by them.

Unfortunately all writing is like this

[kosmogrl]

don’t take my defeatism too seriously I will always begin again and again no matter what

[kosmogrl]

I might sound miserable most of the time but at my core I’m a very hopeful person

[elleldoe]

anything can be a slow burn if it takes you forever to upload new chapters

[victoryroadburnout]

y'know sometimes fanfiction is just an increasingly convoluted series of setups to make characters sit around and talk about their feelings, and that's ok

[cheeseanonioncrisps]

I mean, we've all read the canon. It's not like these charactets are going to sit around and talk about their feelings without an increasingly convoluted series of setups.

When you realize fanfic writers are just fanfic readers who couldn't find what they wanted to read 💀

[waywardsou2]

Some idiot: "Why are you reading your own fic, that's shallow and stupid"

All fanfic writers and writers everywhere: "Who the fuck do you think I wrote it for?!"

[shelleysprometheus]

You know what I love about fandom? That someone was so goddamned excited about something they had to make something. They had to draw something, paint something, write something, create something.

And they did it coz they loved it and wanted to share their joy with others.

I don't care whether it's a masterpiece of literary genius - all 100K words chosen with exquisite care, or a simple 1K of sparkling banter. It could be a doodle that took all of 30 seconds or a digital portrait that took hours.

I'm here for the stained glass panels, the long stitched profiles, the crocheted characters, the fics, the prose, the vids, the stickers, the tattoos, and the comics. I'm here for the words and the images, the sounds and the feels - in vivid brights and moody greys - I'm here for all of it.

So fandom creators, please keep doing what you are doing and so long as it keeps bringing you joy as well, please, don't stop sharing your work with us.

Always and forever, thank you ❤

(hears a song lyric) this would make a great all-lower case fanfiction title

[violsva]

TOM STURRIDGE AS BORED CHILD MORPHEUS / DREAM OF THE ENDLESS VIVIENNE ACHEAMPONG AS TIRED MOM LUCIENNE

[ineffably-dreaming]

Dreamling and Lucienne nations, how are y’all feeling

[florallychaotic]

Truly one of the oddest feelings is reading a fic that is so out of character but the writing and plot is so compelling. Like yeah I came here for the characters but yeah you know what I will read your original novel with the serial numbers plastered on
