This post is a huge PSA for anyone writing X Reader content

You may not think this post applies to you, but it does.

There is a massive issue with inclusivity and assuming the audience. I have seen and personally experienced, time and time again, that me and many others feel as if we have no place in fandom. This specific part of it has to do with the majority of "x reader" content out there. It is all written for a cisgender (mostly heterosexual) white woman audience.

Now, cis white women getting content made for them is OBVIOUSLY not the issue here. People write for their personal interests, and there is nothing wrong with that. We all know this, and we all enjoy a fun story with our favorite characters centering around us.

The main issue here is the mentioned women not tagging their content properly, refusing to tag their content properly, straight up lying in the tags or not tagging things at all.

Trans men, nonbinary people, trans women, gay men, disabled people, fat people, intersex people and many people of color or non-american readers are constantly left out of fandom space and forgotten entirely. I've seen hundreds of complaints about it, and it needs to be spoken about more. While I'm on specifically talking about the fanfiction part of it, it is a VISIBLE issue in every fandom space you could possibly partake in. I don't even need to explain to you the rampant racism and transphobia in the cosplay community.

And the fix is extremely easy! TAG YOUR THINGS PROPERLY. It is the easiest, simplest form of allyship one could do for the community, and it goes miles. However, a lot of you seem to not understand how to, even if your heart is in the right place.

How to tag your fanfiction for the general audience:

- Specify the gender of the reader. This goes MUCH farther than just what pronouns are used. I've read WAY too many fanfics that tell me it is gender neutral, only to be hit with nicknames like "princess", or to be told the intended reader loves dresses and wears a bra.

- In tags or a prior description, mention every nickname used for the reader and every possibly gendered descriptor. It's really not difficult, and doesn't take too long.

- If necessary, mention what style of clothes the reader is specified to wear. And if this applies as well, specify any highlighted personality traits you gave the reader.

- Specify the body of the reader. This also goes much farther than gender. "Afab" and "amab" don't exactly cut it. Many people are triggered by certain words connected to genitals, so specify what words are used for those as well! Also, if you are trying to write a gender neutral body, PLEASE specify whether it is entirely gender neutral or something is implied. Many say it is gender neutral, and then explain how the reader's body self lubricates, or even has a clitoris. Please do better than that.

- For the love of God, do not automatically feminize the "GN afab" reader you wrote without a warning, and PLEASE MENTION if breasts are even spoken of, let alone used for smut reasons. And do NOT refer to someone's body as having "fem" or "male" genitalia. just say vagina or penis, please.

- Specify what body type you had in mind. Many fat or even slightly chubby individuals need to look for fanfiction that specifically caters to them, because "neutral body reader" writers, tend to not make it neutral. If you have any specifics on whatever you have written for the body mentioned, do tag it!

- Specify what sort of skin tone or hair texture is mentioned, if at all. Many POC complain that they read neutral fiction just to find straight hair, pale skin, light eyes, and blushing faces to be mentioned. If any color of the body is mentioned at all, or anything is implied, do say so! This also can go for specific things you may not think about, like how long it takes hair to dry, how easy it is to brush, hairstyles and other things of the sort.

It may seem like a bit of a list, but this is really the LEAST you can do for your community. We are consistently forgotten and ignored anywhere we go, and the simple things like this truly mean a lot.

- If there is an implied location, or anything to imply a place of origin, it's best to be on the safe side and mention that if it feels important.

- Please tag if you put the reader through, or mention a past traumatic event. Casually putting the reader character through things like an abusive ex, abusive parents, bad home or work life, or something like a car accident can be highly triggering. tag your scenes thoroughly! This also applies to putting the reader insert through something like sexist comments, unwanted touching of any kind, and similarly negative situations.

I cannot tell you the amount of times I've turned to fanfiction as an outlet and an escape, as many others have, just to be jumpscared by my favorite characters misgendering me. It's truly a miserable experience knowing no place is actually welcoming to me, or in the very least accommodating for people who aren't like them. This post is NOT meant to shame or send harassment to those who are forgetful, but ignorance is never a good thing to uphold. No one is asking you to write for an audience you don't want to, we just want to KNOW who you are writing for. Assuming an entire space is all one demographic is never, ever a good thing.

If you need help writing for a demographic you don't fully understand, just ask people who are a part of it how they would! Look at how other writers write and tag their content, and listen to anyone if they have necessary critiques. I wish you all happy writing! :]

Reblogs are highly appreciated, as this message needs to be spread as far as possible!

Ichigo with a sick partner

Not much to say, I've got the sniffles and would like Ichi company so have a drabble/some headcannons

Personally, I think he'd initially brush it off. You'll be fine in the morning so just sleep it off and make sure you're drinking enough water.

When you get worse the next day though? He'd feel like a complete ass and if you don't have any medicine on hand he's going to get some as soon as possible. He'd definitely still try to keep his distance — obviously he doesn't want to get sick himself, but if you're whiny enough he might let you cuddle up to him just so you'll shut up.

In terms of actually taking care of you, he'd at least make sure you're taking your medicine on time. I feel like he'd be the type to also keep on eye on your water. Like as soon as it gets below halfway gone he snatch it to fill it back up. I don't think he'd really cook unfortunately, he's not good at it. He might be able to make you a simple soup or pasta, but don't go expecting anything with a more complicated recipe unless someone else is helping (aka Orihime or Yuzu).

If it's something worse like food poisoning or something where you're throwing up, he'd — again — at least make sure your staying hydrated. I think he'd also make sure you got a packet of crackers or something with you to hopefully urge you to eat at least the bare minimum. Would definitely keep your hair out of your face if he's there when you book it to the bathroom.

Overall I don't think he'd be super involved or worried unless it's prolonged, but he'd still make sure you're taken care of and taking care of yourself.

if you send me a random DM that says ‘hey’ or ‘hi’ and I don’t know you, there is a 99% chance I will assume you are a bot and block without checking. I am so sorry to the innocent souls blocked due to this but you’re going to need a better starter

I worry wayyyyy too much about things I write or draw being perfect

I have so many half written little oneshots that I haven't posted or finished because I don't want to re-read it in a year and die inside or have people think it's cringe T^T not to mention most of it is oc stuff and I know people won't care lmao

Oh the woes of my brain. One day man, one day.
