Thanatle - Ao3

Just another fanfic writer. Lots of WiPs. Too many new ideas.

[tazz-was-here]

Saw this on twitter and THIS is the fandom mindset I learned and follow.

I enjoy reading and writing darker things. I do not give a shit what fictional things or ships you like. That is your business and if you don't like what I like? Great! I also don't give a shit!

Find what makes you happy, brings you comfort, makes you feel those emotions you want, or what gives you closure from something

Fandom is what you make it. Don't make it shitty

[hostilecandle]

If ANY of yall EVER do this shit to me, im deleting every single fic out of spite.

If I ever catch one of yall doing this to another author and I know youre a follower of my work I will block you personally on every platform

None of yall are the fic police. I DESPISE genai. I think its an insult to art, humanity, and the planet itself. But aint not a single fucking person here qualified to pick apart a strangers fic looking for a gotcha moment to make yourselves feel superior. If you think something is ai you can ask the author (most are proud of the ai use and will just tell you straight up) if they say yes you have your answer and can warn people. If they say no and you dont believe them you block and quietly keep it between you and maybe a close group of friends. Spreading misinformation is DANGEROUS. And NONE of you doing this shit are anywhere near qualified to do it.

THIS GOES DOUBLY FOR ARTISTS.

A reminder that "ai detectors" are insanely inaccurate as well. These are from 2 different detectors, for the same paragraph (written 100% by me)

It's worth noting that the one that says its ai gave different percentages every time I put that paragraph in.

[squirrelstone]

Maybe if people updated more we wouldn't turn to ai

You’re a pathetic, impatient loser. Fanfic writers owe you nothing, and their writing is their own, not yours to do with as you choose, you entitled brat.

[semperintrepida]

This is the worst timeline. (x)

[pftones3482]

If you do this with my fics, or anyone's fics, please know I HATE you. I hate you more than every troll comment, every "your writing sucks kys" comment, every "update soon" comment. I hate you. Other authors hate you. If you want my fic, you either WAIT for it or you pay me for it. And if you won't do one of those things, you don't deserve my fic or anyone else's.

[shadowmaat]

All this does is tell me that you don't see me as a person. All I am is a content machine, and if I'm not working fast enough, you'll feed my writing into a different machine and gobble down whatever it shits out for you.

TBF this problem has been growing for a while. The rise of Generative Artificial Garbage simply makes it really, really stark.

Crappy art for what I found the most shocking Taisho Secret at the Gotouge exhibition, with additional context added in from Fanbook #2. In case you can't read my handwriting, 6-year-old Akito's comment is, "We should have a family rule about not playing with matches."

Mood board depicting some of the concepts and inspirations for my upcoming fanfic.

I've been watching Fatal Frame videos and other Asian horror films/games, along with re-watching Demon Slayer while we all wait for Infinity Castle to come out. It's allowed me to narrow down the lore behind my oc and her family, as well as figure out events for the plot.

My fanfic is still working under the name 'Blue Spider Lily Bride', but I'll have to decide on a new title once I finish writing it.

While I love Muzan's natural voice that you hear in 95% of his scenes, I can't get over how he possesses the equivalent of a customer service voice when dealing with his fake family in season 1.

[thanatle]

So...despite still being suffocated by writer's block for the last...let's say too many year...I've been having a lot of Demon Slayer brain rot and fanfic ideas. One of them was a 'what-if Muzan fell for a woman who happen to have blue spider lily in her DNA'. @yokumirumerafan was kind enough to take my anon requests and do two posts on a couple of the ideas. 1. 2.

With a lot of downtime at work, I've been doing snips and drabbles, so I've decided that I'll go ahead and do a full fanfic on this idea once I have more of the plot outlined. Not sure if I'll release chapter by chapter (due to a previous vow of not posting until I actually have the fanfic done), but we'll see how it goes.

But here's a small teaser of Muzan with my oc, his blue spider lily bride.

normalize creators replying to fanon shippers with “that’s great that you’re inspired to write your own version of things. keep doing that! but please respect our version of our story.”

normalize fans being reminded that boundaries between fandom and creators exist for a reason.

normalize fans recognizing their own creative potential without seeking canon validation

normalize the idea that fandom is a hobby, not an identity to threaten and fight and harass people over

normalize a healthy understanding of the boundaries between fiction and reality

normalize just chilling the fuck out lmao

Update

I posted this in a tweet, but I will be changing how I do fanfics. 

It’s been years since I could do constant uploading for a multi-chapter fanfics that aren’t composed of one-shots. I really hate leaving my WiPs in purgatory because of writer’s block and irl things forcing me to go onto autopilot just to get by each day. I don’t want my readers to think my fanfics are dead if they seem unfinished between the months of not uploading the next chapter.

I will post multi-chapter fanfics once they are completely written/proof-read.

hey hey! don’t do this!

[teenagedirtbag-dot-jpeg]

i’ve seen a lot of people in the notes say like “well i just enjoy it even though other people don’t like it,” but that’s not what i mean, i mean like when they flat out say that what i like is stupid.

i much prefer if they said “that’s not really my thing, but glad it makes you happy!” because what happens is this

then slowly like you start to think “maybe it is stupid” and it takes away all the fun of just enjoying something that makes you happy and it’s not a good feeling

[thanatle]

I lost count of how any times I've been told this. And then the person saying it would get extra insulted and wouldn't stfu if I expressed any disinterest in what they wanted to shove down my throat.
