Honestly as a blind person I’m so tired of seeing fictional blind characters who don’t use white canes or other guides. “They have special powers so they know what’s around them” or “they’re confident enough to not need a guide” are common tropes, and I’m tired.
Are people scared that using a white cane will make their blind character seem weak? They can’t use a cane because they’re so special that they already know what’s around them, and other blind people who use guides are inferior because they’re not special?
I’m tired. Give your blind characters white canes and other guides. Let them hold onto their friends, let them have guide dogs. Don’t make white cane users feel ostracized for not being “strong enough” to go without.
Another thing that pisses me off is when a sighted character comes up with the fantasy equivalent of braille and teaches it to the blind character. Braille was invented by Louis Braille, a blind man, in 1824. The blind character should be the one coming up with it.
Tldr I’m blind and tired of sighted people lol
Thank you so much! I love this challenge!

Hello, dear author and other fan creators, grab yourself a drink, get comfortable and let me tell you about permission statements! Most of you might have not heard the term and this guide is meant to make you aware of them and maybe consider writing one yourself.
A permission statement is a policy on transformative works regarding fanworks of others based on your own fanwork. For example fanart for fanfic, fanfic for fanart, translations, vidding, making icons, remixing of fic, podfic and a lot of other work types. Personally I do podfics, or audiobooks of fanfics, and the general culture dictates that we get permission from authors before posting our works. I’ll illustrate permission statements exemplary with podfic, but really, all fanwork types and creators can be inserted.

Kiss somewhere other than the mouth
-
Clint's chin is resting on his palm, which is proper on the counter, and he's watching the coffee percolate. He feels movement behind him--the shifting vibration of steps on old wooden floorboards, each step a little thump of soundless noise. He doesn't have his ears in, because he doesn't put his ears in before coffee, but he likes that he can still feel it when Bucky gets in from his morning run.
The kiss that presses to his cheek makes him squeak, shocked not by the action but the cold of Bucky's lips.
Autumn comes later ever year it seems, but the cold front sets in just as quick as always.
Bucky presses a second kiss to Clint's shoulder, still a little cold through the fabric of his shirt but not as much as skin on skin. A wordless apology.
"Love you," Clint mumbles, and feels the way the fabric of his shirt shifts when Becky's smile jostles it.
Bucky pours them both coffee, throws on an old purple hoodie of Clint's so his cold metal arm won't brush Clint and startle him all over again, and they settle in on the couch to drink their coffee together.
Clint never thought he could be this happy. Clint never thought he would feel this loved, especially in this way. But he is.
He presses a kiss to the corner of Bucky's jaw, coffee warm lips on warming skin and scruff, and says it one more time just because he likes to say it: "love you."
Bucky smiles like a sunrise and signs back, love you (too).
In celebration of reaching 100 followers on this blog, Fandom Bingo presents Superhero Trope Flash!
This is a super quick flash event focused on a trope instead of a fandom. For this round, we'll be going with the superhero/supervillain genre, so all prompts will be related to this theme in some way.
Like the mini-bingos, this is also multifandom, so you can write for any fandom you want. However, the one requirement is that the fanwork must be related to the event's theme somehow.
**Signups are open for one week, so this form will close on August 15th.**
You can interpret the prompts any way you want, so long as your fic has something to do with superheroes, supervillains, or anything else that you think falls under this genre.
All prompts can just be used as inspiration or a general fit, no need to actually include them word for word in the fanwork, and tenses and pronouns can be swapped accordingly.
You can use your card(s) for any fandom, including crossovers and original works.
You can combine multiple prompts in one fanwork.
Each submitted fanwork should be new and complete, but it can be a standalone, part of a series, or one chapter of a multi-chaptered fic.
This event is primarily geared towards fanfic, but any medium is fine if you feel you can do it.
For fanfic, the minimum is 100 words with no maximum.
You can use fanworks submitted for this event for other events as well, so long as it’s okay with the other side too.
While signups are only open for one week, there is no time limit for completing a card.
This event offers comic panel cards, so strictly speaking, it's not a traditional bingo format. There will be a total of 5-6 prompts per card, and you can sign up for a maximum of 4 cards (only one signup necessary).
After submitting a form, please give me up to a week to reply with your card.
All content and ratings are allowed but please tag everything appropriately, especially if there’s trigger-warning content.
Please be respectful of each other. If you see content tags you don’t like, just scroll past and move on.
All works must be your own creation. No plagiarism. No AI-generated works.
Honestly, it doesn't really matter. Preferably, you manage to cross off all prompts on your card(s), but if you can't, that's fine too. I might open this again in the future, and even if you haven't finished your card(s) by then, you can still come and sign up for another.
There is no completion form for this event, although of course, if you make a masterpost after you finish and ping @fandombingo, I'll reblog that.
You can post your fanworks to this AO3 collection here.
If you make a Tumblr post for your fanwork, remember to ping @fandombingo and tag #SuperheroTropeFlash so I can reblog it.
On your post, please clearly indicate the Fandom, Prompt(s), Rating, and Tag(s)/Content Warning(s).
If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to send in an ask!

Gift for @42donotpanic for the prompt “knit blanket”
At first I thought about hot chocolate and comfy blankets but I wanted to give it the #fratt edge so it turned out to be Frank patching Matt up after some battle. I’d like to think that DD’s clothes got wet and he’s cold. So Frank just pulled the most fluffiest knit blanket over the devils head. =)Hope you like it!
[Image Description: Black and white sketch of the Punisher cleaning Daredevil’s wounds. Frank is kneeling before a sitting Matt and cleaning his wounded knuckles with a cotton pad. Matt has several bandages already on his body and has a big knitted blanket pulled over his head and shoulders, gripping onto it with his other hand. Daredevil also still has his helmet and pants an.]

It’s that time again!

I read Gardening… by 42donotpanic and haven't been able to get these three out of my mind since.
Do not ask me where Clint's other hand is. I do not know.
This arrangement has been described to me as "people macrame".
