The brain worms have succeeded, Mason, my doll, my beloved, my sweetheart, apple of my eye, the bitch who wouldn't stop glaring at me for most of book 1–I love them so much

i'm so glad that ppl have been starting to criticize twc, i've always wanted to, but i'm always afraid of the backlash

hi i’m so sorry that i’ve taken literal months to answer this – it’s kind of been buried in my drafts and i keep forgetting to get to it, but based on how people have been acting today i figured it’s a good time to post it! i’m using this to kind of rant ab the stuff i’ve seen today (specifically asks my bestie @masonsfangs is getting)

i completely understand that it can be nerve racking to speak your mind especially when tumblr has an easily abusable anon function, but i promise that in the twc fandom there’re people that are on your side – this anon was sent months ago and i know for a fact more people are fed up with m!shka and the fandom now than ever

you’re fully allowed to say what you want on your blog – most of us heavily criticize twc BECAUSE we love the characters and our oc’s and the little community here. i know to some people it can be seen as shitting on the source material/author, but we literally wouldn’t be here if we didn’t love this IF. like it’s as simple as that!

i spend portions of my free time replaying twc and creating content for it and now running a summer themed event with my fandom friends for it, because i love twc. doesn’t mean i don’t have huge glaring issues with the writing, or the asks, or the author, or the fandom.

personally, to me, i feel like it’s important to speak up when i’m informed and i feel compelled to (which isn’t a lot these days, but i rant in private to my friends a lot) and i urge others to as well! it’s our job to make this a comfortable space. this is our home! you’re in no obligation to keep feeling uncomfortable in your space!

and to the people that are frustrated with seeing complaints all the time, yeah, i get that you want to avoid conflict, but you can do that! you can block frequently used tags (fandom critical/twc fandom), people’s personal tags, etc, to stay away from people’s thoughts on things.

you know what people who are frustrated with whitewashing, racism, transphobia, homophobia, etc. can’t do? avoid it completely. because those are the things we’re seeing in the main tags, not just from creators in the fandom, but from the author herself.

Nothing tops that feeling you get when Sera responds to art, messages and memes in this really wholesome way. Seriously, going through your blog gives me an instantaneous serotonin boost - OMG MAYBE YOU SHOULD JUST BE CALLED /SERA/TONIN --

Aah, what a wonderful message, hehe!

Thank you so much for this! It really made my day <3

hypothetical question for the #twc fandom 👀👀

let’s saaaaaay that M suggestively called MC a “good girl/boy” in front of UB...which members would, like, get it and which would be oblivious?

[mr-laveau]

ok so it might not matter to anyone but it matters to me so, we all know that Agent M basically has a scene with the detective where they basically are like "oh we're just friends" in the cafe, right? Yeah that one?

That HURT kayne. I love how the scene plays out, ate that shit up but the way I have played this out is that M would've watched Kayne rush at Murphy without knowing how to fight him, has basically watched him struggle through trappers, glared down a werewolf, took on shit that the detective was not ready to even handle-and that one slip of the tongue is the thing that causes a normally cool-faced, gentle soul to crumble.

THE WAY I KNOW that it shattered M's whole world in that moment to see a dude who most people would describe as a scary dog, to see that someone who's been nothing but sweet on them, someone who has yet to actually show a singular peep of negative emotion to the team-that person, just falters at an absent minded blurb of their mouth and it wrecks them mentally because they just hurt the detective.

Can you tell I love that scene so much? Could you tell I think about that scene alot? Can you tell I gasped so loud when I read it? I did. It was damaging to my mental health in the best way and I replay it cuz I know it hurt them both so much

[mr-laveau]

In one of my playthroughs, the way I've played my detective in TWC is that I have so much added to my intimidation stat that I practically took that and ran with it. Now Kayne (my detective) is just taller than most normal people, looks scary and has a glare that can cut through steel but he's the nicest guy in the world...he's just also got a harsh rbf and a scowl that would make a vicious dog whimper away.

That's all to say that yes, it actually does make him feel good knowing that as someone who people clock as scary at first, Unit Bravo are one the very few people who actually don't treat him like an immediate threat and I think that's also fun considering how much agent M refers to the detective as handsome

[mr-laveau]

I sit here in my solace thinking about agent M thinking about the detective while this plays behind them, like:

Something bad is 'bout to happen to me I don't know what, but I feel it coming Might be so sad, might leave my nose running I just hope she don't wanna leave me (Babe)

they're looking over at the detecitve, worry just keeps piling in their mind as they keep thinking about everything that could hurt them and the detective but the moment the detective looks over at agent M, it just settles away and he smirks back at them as te chorus plays in the background

Don't you give me up, please don't give up On me, I belong, with you, and only you, babe Only you, my girl, only you, babe Only you, darling, only you, babe Only you, my girl, only you, babe Only you, darling, only you

Like ya feel? The brain worms are crawling back in again and I'm sick for the both of them again
