kinda crazy how every single character ever is queer

As a fic writer, i need every reader to know that:

I don’t care if your comment is coherent. I know what you mean and i love you

I don’t care if you ramble. I read every word and i love you

I don’t care if you leave a comment on a fic from four years ago or leave comments/kudos on like ten of my fics in one go. This isn’t IG, pls stalk my AO3. I love you

I don’t care if you mention the same thing in your comment that four other people have already mentioned. It’s actually really useful to know what resonated with people and I love everyone who takes the time to tell me they liked a particular turn of phrase

I don’t mind if your comment is super long or just a couple of sentences, i love them all

I love you

I gotta be honest I see a lot of people saying Viktor is trans bc xyz but I took one look at Vi and went "oh that's a man"

ao3 users orphan_account and anonymous sure have some really banger fics ngl

the werewolf urge to howl at the full moon

That strange and sudden desire to bite someone and tear their flesh to shreds.

i cant tell if i need a wednesday to my enid or an enid to my wednesday

Chat too often I find myself thinking, "man I need the (insert sun character) to my (insert moon character I ship them with), and then I realize just how sad and gay that makes me sound.(I am both sad and gay)

news just in!!! a lot of fandom issues could be resolved by recognising that characters aren't real people, and real people aren't characters!!! situation still developing, more at 10

Is it just me or is Wenclair the main thing that makes me feel romantic lovesickness-

Everytime I see fanart i am absolutely astounded and in love with it but it tugs my heartstrings because i to yearn the touch of a woman who loves me, not just the idea of me.

The want to have a woman alter my life just a little bit. Feel secure and safe with her and not worry if she'll leave or suddenly hate how naturally silly I am. Someone who is like Enid sorta?

"I see you as you are, and i embrace you anyway. Even if we are nothing alike. I love who you are and how you treat me. I want to spend time learning about you and growing with you. I want to bring comfort, trust, and authentic love into your life because of who you are and how I love us"

Embrace the cringe.

Write weird fanfic.

Read weird fanfic.

in the google doc. straight up "writing it". and by "it", haha, well. let's justr say. Nothing

eating toast and butter is such an exhilarating experience

That sad moment when you plan an entire fic and realise you actually have to write it 😩😂

Dude. The way I legitimately cannot handle angst. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO THEM??? The last time I read a fic that was majority angst, I spent half the time repeating "I don't wanna do this" to myself, as I teared up and forced myself to keep reading. Call me dramatic, but it pains me to see them hurting.

plot? in this economy?

worst part about getting angry is how much it makes you want to be mean

I'm so normal about wenclair (I'm not)

eveeyones got it wrong your mid 20s arent for going to the club or partying or picking up new crafts. your 20s are for discovering how much more autistic you are than you thought you were in high school

They're just like me for real (we're not even remotely similar)

i really believe that discussing the character with someone who shares ur interpretation is the closest u can get to modern day philosophy. we are like plato and aristotle but talking about a fictional guys trauma

Some people get therapy others drown themselves fanfiction about pretty girls kissing. I believe everyone should try the latter but that's just me.

Am I crying over a Breath of the Wild mod??? Yes. @woulduknowmore just showed me this mod and she's improved my entire night, it's cleared my skin, it's given me back my hope and wonder and joy.

Some of you haven't been to the darkest depths of ao3 and it shows

Sometimes. A transmasc just want to read transmasc fanfiction

definitely DON'T check me out on ao3 (@ gimmick_the_trick) for these types of fanfics... or do, I don't control you

Mutuals ignore this . My sisters in Christ, do y'all know any Wednesday fanfics where Wednesday is transmasc/transitions?

AO3 Comments are SO SO SOOOOOOO important because you can only leave Kudos ONCE. You add to the hit count ONCE (every 24 hours).

So whenever someone updates their fic, the ONLY way an author knows who their regular readers are is if they comment on each chapter. And we WANT to know who's still reading.

Believe it or not, some of us think about the name that pops up constantly in the comments and go "omg I can't wait to see what they think of THIS SPECIFIC SCENE cuz I KNOW they'll say something about it!!!"
