The Problem with the GunnTech AU
Talking about something regarding the PJ Masks fandom and GunnTech fandom split! Not drama or anything just wanted to say something.
I do Kids show rewrites more because of the love my PJ Masks rewrite got, and how very fun it was to make. Then people began requesting stuff I hadn’t watched before/wasn’t a fan of as a child to rewrite. Naturally, I can’t have been a fan of everything. But I *was* a fan of PJ masks (not saying was as in past tense but I mean I actually did watch it as a kid: ‘evidence’ As a child I played with my little brother pretending to have super cat speed (He was Gekko).
And then ofc, I did that little original drawing of the PJ masks aged up in 2020, which never went anywhere. I just liked it, I liked Lunakko specifically tbh!
Then, I did the rewrite and named it GunnTech! I had NEVER gotten this amount of fan stuff on anything ever! I’m guessing that’s how it developed into more of its own thing.
In the past, when I posted about it, I’d post with the PJ masks tag. When I found out more dedicated PJ masks fans were having grievances with people just coming into their server FOR gunntech, I continued tagging it as PJ Masks to convey that “Guys this is still just PJ Masks,”. But now, I think that’s not such a good idea. I don’t wanna flood PJ masks tag with stuff basically unrelated now.
When I write GunnTech, I think of it as PJ Masks cause that show lives in my heart. Maybe not as much as others, and it doesn’t show often, since I’ve got so much to do, as an animation student and youtuber, but it does have its own lil room in my heart.
I want to make fanart of the real PJ Masks, and of fics like TTMAB (By @ / pjtrashofficial , idk if they’re okay with me tagging them).
To PJMCord, you guys are wonderful and welcoming! I saw people talking about the GunnTech problem, and I always thought, ‘I should really address that’, but I never got to it. I hope I never felt like a poser to you guys. For stuff like Octonauts, I could never get into my rewrite properly after the video dropped cause it wasn’t my childhood, but not so for PJ Masks. The PJ masks video came straight from the heart 🧡🧡🧡.
Uhh anyway what’s this message even to say? 😭 So sorry to what I did to the PJ Masks community, I had no clue it’d get that big, and when it did, I didn’t know what it might do to the fans of the original. Never meant anything by it! 🧡 😭
