Arthur: Can We Try Rizzing You Up So You Don't End Like... The Whole Reality?

One more season. one. more. season.

I am absolutely terrified.

every episode I go "oh boy I don't think Arthur Lester is making it out of this one" but this time I MEAN IT

oh no my pornography is turning into an angst-filled character study

Malevolent 46 The Unclean Spoiler reaction under cut

Arthur for the love of GOD do not drink that shit oh my godd can we get Yorick in the chat to talk some sense into this guy

jon, faking his age, newly promoted: i am doing such a good job at being the rational and steely academic

absolutely everyone in the archives: who is this 28 year old baby duckling and why is he already graying

Relistening to Malevolent (slowly so I don't die of depression) and just got thru The Prison and couldn't stop imagining John singing this

go sing your gay little song little irish boy

I like to think that the ao3 staff find out that ao3 is down from the screams of anguish on tumblr alone

Fanfic tiktok is wild... I see so many people saying shit like "I could never read anything below 60k!!", or "What story can you even tell in under 5k words?" or "A oneshot below 10k isn't even a story!" or "I always filter completed fics by 100k< only!"

And I'm like...

A) which fandoms are you reading fics for where you have this kind of offerings on the regular?

B) have you heard of short stories? If you truly think every story NEEDS to be longform to connect with people, I sincerely feel sorry for you.

C) Average novel length is between 50k to 100k. I'm sorry, but CONSISTENTLY demanding fic writers to push out fics of that length is insane. Just think about it: YOU DEMAND AUTHORS TO PUT OUT FICS THAT COMPARE TO COMMERCIAL NOVELS IN LENGTH (AND QUALITY) AS A BASELINE.

Yall are wilding.
