nothing scary, just a few expectations so everybody knows where they stand!
requests are welcome, not guaranteed
i absolutely love receiving requests. genuinely. they're one of my favourite parts of running this blog, and i'd estimate i answer around 90% of the asks i receive.
however, sending a request does not guarantee i will write it.
sometimes i don't connect with an idea, sometimes i've written something similar already, sometimes i'm busy, and sometimes i simply don't have inspiration for it.
please don't take this personally.
fanfiction writers are sharing their work for free in their spare time, and nobody is owed a response, a fic, or an explanation for why a request wasn't chosen.
that said: please keep sending them! i love reading them, and when my inbox gets too full i usually close requests temporarily so i can work through everything properly.
hate speech, harassment, bullying, discrimination, or generally being awful to people will not be tolerated.
life is hard enough already.
ai accusations = immediate block
if you accuse me of using ai in my writing, i will block you.
i've spoken about my views on ai previously [thoughts on ai].
i spend hours writing, editing, rewriting, and occasionally losing my mind over a single paragraph. i'm incredibly proud of my work, and i'm not interested in debating whether i wrote it.
this blog is strictly 18+
many of my fics contain adult themes, sexual content, or discussions intended for adult audiences.
if i have reason to believe you're under 18, i will block you.
this isn't personal and it isn't punishment.
it's simply a boundary i'm not willing to compromise on.
i discovered things online much younger than i should have, and looking back, i genuinely wish i hadn't.
please respect this rule.
reblogs are always appreciated.
copying, reposting, translating, uploading elsewhere, feeding into ai programs, or claiming my work as your own is not.
if you're ever unsure about something, just ask.
requests involving real-life serious illnesses, disabilities, mental health conditions, etc.
i'm always happy to try my best, but please remember i'm writing from personal experience and research, not professional expertise.
if i write about a condition you live with and get something wrong, please feel free to let me know kindly.
if you're ever stuck on what to request, have a look at my 500 follower / 1000 follower celebration prompts list here (you can find the prompt lists at the end of each post):
[prompt list] [prompt list]
lots of my favourite fics have come from those prompts.
thank you for being here.
thank you for sending requests, leaving comments, screaming in my tags, and generally making this little corner of the internet such a lovely place to spend time.
i appreciate you more than you know ♡
