i’m going to hold your hands when i say this and i am only going to be kind about it once: ai does not belong in fandom spaces, ever. not in writing, not in art, not in video, not at all. it does not matter how bad you want to see your favourite characters kiss, or how much you need a bit of help finishing a chapter, or whatever.
make friends with artists. commission somebody. learn to draw yourself. ask for a beta read. try a writing partnership. fandom spaces are communities, so engage with them! it is about the journey and the fact that we all love something enough to create and build together about that thing.
spending 30 seconds to kill a tree and get an AI to push out some soulless empty piece of “content” is antithetical to the entire point of being engaged with fandom, and if you’ve taken to doing this you should really reconsider if you belong in these spaces with the rest of us.

nighttime call w shigs
cw; none, just a scene between shigs and reader that showcases their dynamic a bit, not a specified point on the timeline, counts as a behind the scenes, no spoilers to the canon plot, written portion under the texts
“hello?” you answer the call with a hushed tone, aware that keigo is asleep down the hall.
“hey flowey, you doing alright?” shigs’ own deep voice comes through the speaker, raspy as if he hasn’t used it in a few hours.
“not really, just feeling kind of down i guess. i don’t know what it is.” you shrug even if he can’t see you.
“yea i know. you wanna talk or just sit in silence for a while?” his voice makes you sleepy and you aren’t ready for that yet.
“can we sit in silence for a bit?” you reposition your body so you’re lying comfortably on your side, your phone plugged in and resting on the pillow next to your head.
“you just want to listen to the sound of my breathing, don't you freak?” his attempt at cheering you up makes you smile softly.
“no, i’m just not ready to talk yet.” you laugh lightly and hear a faint chuckle from him.
“alright, we can do silence, just talk when you’re ready.” at his answer you both fall into a comfortable silence, listening to the sound of each other’s breathing.
every few minutes, shigs breathing shifts and you wonder if he’s managed to fall asleep. the light outside is still dark but as the time on your phone strikes 6:30am, you know the sun will be rising soon.
“you still awake?” the softness of his voice startles you and you blink your eyes open with a hum.
“yea, can’t sleep still.” you snuggle deeper into the blankets hoping the warmth will lull you to sleep.
“can i ask you something?” you hear him shuffling for a bit before a switch clicks and a faint ‘suck my dick spinner’ sounds somewhere in the background and he sighs deeply.
“yea, go ahead and was that your roommates?” you hold back a giggle as he lets out another sigh when the words from before are followed by ‘fuck you too dabi’.
“why don’t you show your face on stream?” his words make you pause, a memory flashing quickly in your mind before hiding away again.
“why don’t you?” you counter strike and his laughs.
“fair point.” you can hear his pc booting up and your brows furrow together.
“are you not planning on sleeping at all?” you whisper as you hear keigo’s door open and shut.
“probably not if those two are up, i’ll be okay though. i might just stream for a while until i get tired enough to sleep.” you think he opens an energy drink if the cracking and fizzing sound is anything to go by.
“will you stay on the phone with me?” it’s a soft plea, one that has his breath catching in his throat as the words leave your lips.
“yeah, i’ll stay on the phone with you. i’ll be on mute though.” he explains, you hum in agreement and sink further into your pillows.
“but seriously, why not at least show me?” he brings the conversation back to the topic you were trying to avoid, you both hate and love how easily he reads you.
“i don’t know shigs, i get anxious i guess. that people will judge me, and i know i shouldn’t care about that but i do. what if they think i’m ugly?” you sigh and it’s quiet on his end for enough time to make you feel anxious.
“do you think i would judge you?” he finally speaks up, his keyboard clicking in the background.
“well no but,” you pause trying to find the right words, “i’m just scared i’m not pretty enough.” you finally say before yawning slightly. the line goes quiet again, and your nerves spike once more.
“if your face is half as pretty as your voice is then you have nothing to be afraid of.” his words reach your ears with a heaviness you didn’t know whispers could possess.
and as your eyes finally flutter close to embrace the sleep that evaded you, heat flames your cheeks and you find yourself smiling brightly.
“thank you shigs.” you hear his throat vibrate with a hum in acknowledgment.
“goodnight flowey.”
a dreamless sleep consumes you right as the sun crests over the horizon, welcoming the start of a new day.

⋆ it was actually ochaco's idea to go to that specific cafe, her and himiko had been talking about going for a while
⋆ himiko's go-to drink is a matcha (iced or hot) heavily iced with white chocolate syrup, ochaco and y/n both opt for (iced) lattes usually
⋆ they did in fact not make it to band practice on time, but spinner appreciated the cookies
⋆ dabi wasn't there, yet, when the girls dropped off himiko
⋆ y/n did not send tomura the entire conversation between her and her mom. she didn't send him the dinner part
⋆ tomura genuinely only wanted to cheer y/n up by letting her chill on stream. he got a little bit annoyed, though when his chat was full of questions about her and his fans simping for her
⋆ tomura let her win
