i just read truth teller because of your post and it was AMAZING. What do you think makes a good Klonnie fic? Any more klonnie fic recs?
not me being impactful??šš
LMAO
so happy you enjoyed! that fic needs all the love and more.
The parameters for a good fic (Klonnie or otherwise) within the realm of fan fictions to me, is keeping in mind the characters themselves, theyāre history, theyāre motivations, the little quirks that make them themselves and expanding on it.
Often times especially with canon divergences or auās in general, the only similarity to the original material is the name and physicality. It can be difficult to find authors who write characters in a way that serves the characters themselves and the authors own vision for their story.
For Klonnie, specifically I often find that Bonnie in particular isnāt written in line, like the things sheāll say dont fall in line with her character or her interactions with Klaus or any other character doesnāt make sense. Often with fics involving a mistreated/unpopular character, theyāre treated as a self-insert rather than written accurately.
The best fanfics to me are the ones where i can literally hear/see the character doing/saying whatever in my head.
I can literally see Bonnie steeling herself against Bob, I can see her acting awkwardly to waking up in bed to Klaus, I can see her showing Marcel in excruciating detail why he doesnāt want to fuck with her
I can see Caroline holding Bonnie tight and hear her telling Bon how fucked it was for Elena to take precedence for so long
I can see Klaus being conflicted over Marcel and Bonnieās initial meeting, I can see his face when he realises he doesnāt want friendship with Bonnie, I can hear him saying āwhy would i want to make life easier for anyone not named Bonnie Bennettā
Szajnie is a prolific klonnie writer, im currently rereading the edge of night
I highly recommend! its a canon divergence from s7/3 onwards and it eats like it eats bad!
If u love the idea of Bonnie in Nola, then baybee⦠get into it
the summoned witch by the same author is also really good. its not as klonnie heavy but erm.. excellent food if i say so myself ( edit : it is in fact Klonnie heavy)
(feel free to hmu to talk all things bonnie š«¶š¾)
I am a blushing fool right now lol
the characterisation of Niklaus Mikaelson in Truth Teller.. oh HedgeRider you will always be beloved by me
Klaus realising how boring, predictable and idiotic he had been moving in his years since breaking the curse
Klaus realising ignoring his wolf side and delaying in knowing what it means to be a wolf stifled him in proportion
Klaus realising how beyond he actually is in trying to have dominion over New Orleans as if heās not the Hybrid like THEE HYBRID
like beyond Klonnie, his growth as a character in within himself is something so special to me
Thats some real shit, thats the kind of shit Julie Plec could never come up with
Thank you!!! It amazes me that people are still reading (and re-reading) my months-long crash out over the bullshit that was S7 of TVD lol.
Klonnie are still the only ship that Iām ever interested in writing for wait thatās not true, I do have a BuckySarah that I do need to finish for @elsac2 because there was always so much potential with them on the show and the ways their growth could have run parallel to one another. Itās part of the reason why in the Klonnie fics Iāve written, thereās always these moments of realization they have with themselves while engaging with one another. They hold mirrors up to each other that are just so fun to write.
Iām gonna stop now so I donāt start rambling since I do enjoy chatting about Klonnie and what could have been lol
P.S I know I suck for having a number of fics that are still WIP. I have not forgotten and they will get done, just sayin š¤«
I came to this tag to see discussions on the themes of the show, the state-sanctioned violence on women in a theocratic fascist regime, the current relevance of the show given the global political climate and steady rise of dictatorship in many parts of the world...
What do I actually see??
Immature booktok girlies losing their shit over the death of their Nazi boyfriend.
There's one particular blog - in its name and absurdity of its increasingly deranged posts - that's fucking WILD.
Listen, there are shows where you can indulge into ship wars. Like bridgerton. Or I don't know, thousand other romcoms, or even other genres that make space for that kinda dynamics.
The Handmaid's Tale isn't that kinda show. Romance is the LAST thing that anyone has in mind. It's THE HANDMAID'S TALE. HANDMAID. Yeah? That's the focus. June is the focus. The WOMEN are the focus. Fighting patriarchy and misogyny and fascism is the focus.
NOT which man the main female character ends up with. Yeah? It's not about that. Please go back to your dark romances if that's what you're looking for.
Don't come here and talk about how the death of your favourite brooding hot Nazi is an affront to humanity. It isn't.
People like you are.
P.S: I'm glad he fucking exploded. Like all the other Nazi's in that plane.
Me (watching the same people who bashed the living hell out of Luke for 6 seasons while swearing up and down that it had nothing to do with racism/antiblackness now suddenly spotting all the isms because their racially ambiguous N*zi boyfriend became one with the ozone layer):
Imaan Hammam & Zendaya ā Met Gala 2025
Me (when someone prioritizes a ship over a revolution):
Fun Fact: Nickās moral dilemma wasnāt a choice between June and Gilead. It was between being a N*zi and not being a N*zi, regardless of his feelings for June. Doing the right thing for the right thingās sake.
Thatās why Lawrence got redemption and he didnāt. Because when push came to shove, he didnāt try to save his own neck at the expense of the rebellion. He got on the plane and followed through knowing what it would mean for him.
Iām actually screaming and clawing at my enclosure over how people managed to literally make THE HANDMAIDāS TALE centered on their favorite MAN. Or how people managed to make all of their fan content regarding a politically-themed dystopian story about womenās rights center exclusively on the romantic subplot šš
Nick was never supposed to be a good guy!! That was intentional!! He was meant to show how even the āniceā men in patriarchal systems will ultimately still choose the power and security offered to them by the patriarchy over protecting the rights of women. He only ever ārebelledā because he loved June, not because he ever cared about the rights of women in Gilead. Somebody save media literacy because we cannot do the āthe hunger games is actually about the Katniss love triangle!!ā thing all over again
Fun Fact: The Venn diagram of Nick Blaine apologists and Joe Goldberg apologists is a circle.

Iām gonna say something as someone who hasnāt read her book yet⦠Francesca is the easiest character to make into a queer storyline.
As a widow, demonstrated even this season, she will have her own home, money, a title, and essentially free to do what she wants. So if they genderbent Michael, it could be to society the āoh just these 2 women living togetherā like many accounts in history but the audience and her family know the truth of the love story.
Itās like nobodyās been paying attention to what the Featheringtonās have been going through for the past three seasons all because Lord Featherington died with no male heirs in his immediate family. Jack Featheringtonās scamming ass showed up S2 because Portia is a widow with no male heirs. Her daughters are scrambling to produce a male heir this season because she had to forge documents to prevent other distant male relatives from staking a claim.
Whatever Francesca gets as a widow will be determined by whomever becomes the next Earl of Kilmartin. John died with no male heirs and if there are no male relatives then the Crown can seize everything and give it to someone else.
So explain to me again how Michael being genderbent would make more sense for Francesca when her widowhood puts her in one of the most vulnerable positions in the ton?
Yaāll hear widow and immediately think of Danbury and the independent life she leads and completely ignore the fact that sheās a widow who gave her husband heirs which is why sheāll be taken care of for the rest of her life financiallyāthat and sheās more than likely used some of the funds she receives from the current Lord Danbury for her own investments.
I think Iām more excited about Francesca and the Earl than this seasonās mains.
