This Is So Adorable I Just-

I think everyone has both "hard" headcanons (things that are so integral to your understanding of a story that you can't enjoy content that contradicts them), and "soft" headcanons (things that are mutable, where you aren't strongly attached or you're open to alternate interpretations) and if you aren't sure if something is one or the other you can just read a fic where the author disagrees with you and see whether you react with "Huh, that's interesting" or "I have been overcome with a creeping sense of existential wrongness."

Very. Good. Point.

That's what happens in my smug marcy au. They are too greedy trying to access Marcy's calamity powers and accidentally let her take control.

Although I agree, I'd look awesome.

Calamity Anne, Calamity Sasha, Calamity Marcy...

What about Calamity Darcy?

I mean that’d be BADASS to see but I personally don’t feel like The Core would do that lol. I think it’d be too afraid of the unknowns about the gems and overthink it so much that they would AVOID that scenario if anything.

Like:

What if returning the power to Marcy’s body pushes the prophecy back into place? What if it lets Marcy free herself? What if they can’t control it? What if it short circuits the helmet? Or blows it up completely? What if Anne can somehow drain or manipulate the power, leaving them defenseless? What if it can’t go back in the box so they can never open portals?

That kinda shit sjfbjshdbndnk

Honestly

Also, I wonder if people like that realize they are shooting their own foot by doing that

Because if other fans see that and they happen to want to publish a fanfic (or already do) that you might actually like, they'll be more likely to decide against it. People can be really critical about their work and thus worry it might get that treatment even if many readers really enjoy it.

Some fics might not be your cup of tea but other people (or even just the author) might like them and thats normal and a great thing about fandom. No need to be negative, whats the point of doing it?

Today I saw certain (I hope younger) fandom members doing a thing on twitter where they called out fandom-famous fics and saying how bad they are.

And, no. We don't do that. We aren't rude to each other like that. If we don't like a fic we move on and find one we do like. We do not go slagging it off on twitter to make ourselves look cool.

Authors, artists, video editors, gif makers: all of these people give huge amounts of their time to provide you with content for free. They don't owe anyone anything, and being cruel about what anyone makes is below us as a fandom.

Oh my frog this is so cool 💜

Did my very best to make this as concise and clear as I possibly could. In hopes for you guys to enjoy!

There are still so many things I wanted to add to lore dump but I’ll list them here.

-pre-Newtopia’s golden age. There were older civilisations that existed.

- There are many more temples out there.

-Newts, Frogs and Toads all have their own folktales and myths.

Marcy is one of those characters who can steal the show from the main characters in less than a instant.

Taking my comfort show and this pure duo and adding murder to the equation?The temptation was too strong

Omg so truee!

I love how this sums up Viren, Claudia, and Terry’s whole dynamic throughout Book 4

Marluz invading my brain rn

AU where Marcy and Luz meet when Marcy moves (to Connecticut obvi). Marcy’s dejected because she just got ripped away from her BFFs, then she meets Luz and just blossoms again as their friendship grows. The two share their interests with one another and geek out, and they make sure to listen to one another when the other person is infodumping. Sleepovers eternal, DND campaigns, and the two show affection via touch like silly baps and boops and HUGS!! They are the ultimate soft nerd duo imma cry
