Hello, I’m deltenner! Most people call me Delta, or occasionally “YOU” if I’ve been especially silly!
artfight: deltenner
spotify: deltenner (note that this is an alt specifically associated with this account, so don’t expect to find all my random playlists…)
sideblog: @delta-draws-the-things (this is where I reblog all my art! I don’t change literally anything about the post, preserving tags, so it’s basically just a big Art Folder.)
my ask game: here! Tagged #delta’s ask game for if the link breaks
My main fandom for this blog is MCYT, though I will also engage with posts about other fandoms I’m in, such as Keeper of the Lost Cities, Wings of Fire, Warrior Cats, etc. Specific corners of MCYT I hang out in are:
Dream SMP
Hermitcraft
the Life Series
(NEW) Pantheon SMP
and the main creators I watch are Technoblade, Grian, GoodTimesWithScar, and Pearlescentmoon. (And I think I’m going to watch Abolish’s Pantheon POV!)
oh, you thought I was only on YouTube? THINK AGAIN. I spend FAR too much of my life on ao3, and the majority of content on this blog will likely relate to fics, AUs, and fan space things. Ongoing fics that I am perpetually losing my mind over following include:
son of the sea (@sircantus) tag: #son of the sea
past the yellow flowers (@sircantus) tag: #ptyf
East Side of Sorrow (@aspengrovethechaotic) tag: #esos
Beneath an Angry Sky (@vividcomet) tag: #baas
Dawn Is Coming (Open Your Eyes) (@bluetbluish) tag: #dicoye
And Even Though You’re Killing Me/I Need You Like The Air I Breathe (@bluetbluish) (tag: #aetykm ) was on this list for a long time, but it is now complete! There’s a sequel coming, but the original story has been wrapped up. I mention it here because there is a LOT of content on this blog about aetykm, starting with just after chapter 20 was released.
on being reborn someplace else (@genderless-spiderlily) (tag: #on being reborn series ) was also on this list for a long time, and is now complete! There is an intermission fic currently out and a sequel on its way, but like AETYKM, the original story has been completed. Also like AETYKM, reborn is mentioned here because it is the source of a LOT of content on this blog and also. Like. The reason this blog exists, and the reason I finally got into the Hermitcraft/Life Series fandom. Tysm spiderlily /gen <3
I am working on creating a “starter pack” post for DSMP and other MCYT fic recommendations! When I finish them I will link them here (DSMP) and here (Life/HC).
my ao3 is (surprise) deltenner! Due to the fact that some people I know from other places may or may not still be following my account (I legit don’t know), I do not post works or public bookmarks. However, I do comment a LOT, and may eventually post some works anonymously (and just link them here). I have also been screenshotting my bookmarks and posting them as recommendations; this is kind of a bit and kind of me making up for not having public bookmarks on!
Let’s abruptly change subjects. Time for a little bio! I’m Delta; I am a factory settings girl, a Christian, and an adult. I say y’all and use tone tags probably too much. I also speak English & español, pero el español no es mi lengua materna; solo he tomado cursos en la idioma por 5 años más o menos. Por favor perdóname para mis errores.
As you may have already figured out from my rambling, I got that attention deficit - hey donuts! This, as well as being 2e, is something I talk about occasionally, and if you ever have questions about it please ask! I am happy to talk about both my experience and general things; I was self-diagnosed for four years before my actual diagnosis, and if I can help anyone get to either of those stages faster, I would love to.
I have siblings! I refer to them using Greek letters (like how I’m Delta haha), so if you ever see me mention Nu, Rho, or Psi, that’s who I mean. I got sick of typing “my brother” and “my sister” over and over, and I also have two brothers, so it got confusing.
Wow that was a huge block of text. Let’s break it up with some common tags! Oh but Delta that’s still text there’s formatting variation I’m trying here
Common tags (that are important) include:
#delta rambles : a bit of a catch-all, used for my text posts and when I add more than like four words to a reblog or caption
#deltacraft : I try to tag my mcyt posts with this, but I’ve gotten really lazy with it recently, so it’s not a super helpful tag anymore… it was also for my own organization to start with so meh
#good fic good fic good fic : I try to include this whenever I talk about a specific fanfiction, especially if I don’t mention it by name; if this tag is on a post, assume that I am talking about a fanonized version of literally everything. I might change this tag, because it’s long and annoying to type, but for now it’s the fanfiction tag
#delta goes insane : a common companion to the previous tag, largely self explanatory; especially used in posts by one or more of my dear whump trio (you know what you did /silly)
#delta is ominous on purpose : pretty much what it says on the tin! My mutuals simply love this tag and they’re always so happy when I use it :}
#tag game : self explanatory
#reblog game : self explanatory
#my art : my original art, typically digital but occasionally otherwise
#not my art : reblogged or reposted art. If an art piece is not tagged with “my art” and doesn’t have this tag either, assume I hit “reblog now”
#hippity hoppity : hippity hoppity this headcanon and/or character analysis is now my property
#songposting : self explanatory
#delta is serious for once : posts about stuff that usually has no relation to art or mcyt or anything else on my blog but I feel like I need to reblog. These might be about kind of heavy topics; I try to tag tw’s but I’m not always great at it, so if there’s any tag to filter it’s probably this one.
#delta answers : askbox things! I try to tag the asker as well, and occasionally the topic of conversation, but typically asks are this tag, the asker, and any relevant warnings. These will almost never be tagged with the “serious” tag, but I am usually very careful about warnings, so this tag should be fine. Still, stay safe everyone
#art vagueposting : pretty much what it says on the tin; this will either be random things that pertain to my art but make no sense without context, or be zoomed in / blurry pictures of WIPs. This tag is mostly used to mess with people. It’s fun
#h2k : don’t worry about it :}
# [insert media here] liveblog : liveblogs! Yay! If you see me start to post things with a tag like this and don’t want your dash to get inundated, feel free to filter them.
#reference : saved for later! Things like master posts, website lists, et cetera
#salad spinner au : it’s basically “I took the wild life superpowers and put them in the salad spinner”. That’s it that’s the AU XD
#deltawrites : my own writing tag! Also used for talking about writing in general.
that’s all the tags I can think of for now! It is YAPPING TIME oh delta weren’t you already doing that hush.
talk to me! askbox always open for literally whatever :} just don't be weird and i answer as soon as i can but also adhd goes brrrr so please be patient with me
I don’t have any dnis because I don’t think they work? Or are helpful? Like if you’d be on that list and you’re gonna start nonsense I don’t think a dni or dni tag will stop you, and if you weren’t going to cause problems I don’t really care what your views are because I won’t know
just please everyone be chill in the comments that’s all I ask
oh, and no shipcourse please! if I draw art of duos or anything else it is always always ALWAYS platonic unless I expressly say otherwise please treat it as such thanks
this is a good spot to say:
I take free commissions! By which I mean if you have an idea for an art and don’t want to draw it/don’t have time/any other reason and it is at least somewhat related to my blog, drop it in my ask box and if I like the idea/have time I will draw it for you! I hope this goes without saying but keep things pg13, I do not draw ship art, and I’d prefer if things stay mostly mcyt related but that’s a much looser rule
so anything from art of a mcyter you like to fic art to pfps, I’m open to ideas :}
^at the moment, these are CLOSED because I’ve got a huge backlog of works in progress! You can still drop them in the ask box but I can’t make any promises on time frame
you’re still here? I must admit, I’m impressed. Here’s a little collection of banners to help you on your way!
stole these from @w0lfyfl00f before I knew how to make my own hope ya don’t mind <3
I made some of my own but these were too awesome to pass up! Ty w0lfy! (Also the “been here a minute” is a bit misleading… I only got here late last August because YouTube recommended me hog hunt while I was rewatching the potato wars and I said “ooo animation!”) (little did I know what I was getting into) (that is one click I don’t regret)
I made some achievements about how I got here XD
we’re almost done! If you are still reading, I am frankly shocked. Hope you have a good time here!
my beloved mutuals! If you’re my mutual and I somehow missed tagging you PLEASE tell me (I update this regularly so if we become moots and your tag doesn’t show up soon please lmk)
and we are DONE! Thank you for sticking around! I’m not apologizing for this post but I AM sorry to anyone else with adhd who just had to read all that… I did my best <3
okay that’s all have a lovely day! <3
