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.

someone should make a good omens edit of The Final Fifteen with Non-stop from Hamilton (the part where Eliza calls Hamilton "Alexander" "I have to leave" "Alexander!" "Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now" "Helpless" "They are asking me to lead" "Look around, isn't this enough?" "He will never be satisfied" "Would that be enough?" "He will never be satisfied. Satisfied" "History Heaven has its eyes on you")

I am all about giving Marcy cats and quality time with (old and new) friends and therapy to help her deal with things but its good to see her done being nice and instead looking for revenge once in a while.

In other words: Love it 💚🔥

@froggythesculptor and I have been working on an animatic for our evil Marcy AU, so here’s a sneak peak of what we got so far!! We’re about halfway done eheheheh

I mostly line, color, and edit while Froggy storyboards and sketches!!

Also, the animatic focuses on chapters 4-5 of our fic:

archiveofourown.org

Losing Marbles - Chapter 1 - Froggy455739, Xenia12 - Amphibia (Cartoon) [Archive of Our Own]

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

(I know I haven’t updated in ages but I SWEAR I’m working on it, I posted part of ch6 here on Tumblr XD)

That's awesome 💙 I need Marcy to get more time with Olivia and Yunan (and meet their child named after her). And for Sash to reunite with Grime (they wouldnt leave each other's side for several days probably) and ofc Anne with the Plantars.

Also I couldnt help it but the first thing on my mind when I read the beginning of this thread was "In Marcy's journal it is revealed that Sasha Waybright Marcy Wu is attracted to women"

Which is not false tbh

In Marcy’s journal, it’s revealed that the girls got a working portal and they can go back to amphibia

Really? Does anyone have pictures of this? I don't have the money to buy the book, so any info I get about it is second hand.

So excited about "My Friend, Fabien" trailer that came out yesterday.

Been waiting to hear Benjamin Callins' wonderful voice in a musical show for a while. Was ecstatic to learn it is also starring Annapantsu. What a great duo for these roles. Cant wait to see more 🎉
