YOU play video games to feel powerful. I play video games to feel new, previously undiscovered shades of grief and sadness. we are NOT the same.

Too scared to look at tags/post about my interests because some of them have weird fans and I don't want them to think I'm one of them, and then some of my interests are things I haven't finished yet and I don't want spoilers, and some of my interests are super niche and I don't think anyone would care, and some of them are hated for stupid reasons and I'm non-confrontational and don't want to be attacked and some of them
the fight is still on! don’t give up!
i wish i could emoji react irl so if i don't feel like talking or emoting i can just
okay but there is something disquieting about this urge to cast fan writers as altruists. they give us all this for free!! well, no.
they’re sharing
it’s a key difference in perception. fic isn’t given. it’s shared. it’s part of a fandom community— in which readers are also an integral part.
it’s probably inevitable mission creep from the increasingly transactional nature of the internet and fandom-as-consumerism, which was always gonna happen after corps worked out how much bank there is to make from those weirdo fan people
but like. fandom is sharing. i think we’ve lost that somewhere.

saying “i want him” about the character but not in a romantic or sexual way . i just Require him i need to Obtain him
I was in Minecraft, just started a new world. Spawned right next to a large structure like some kinda dungeon building. It was surrounded by iron fences and had tinted windows. I could see a ton of hostile mobs inside. I made plans to set up some kinda pit trap around the building so I could just break a wall and release them all into the trap to kill them. There was a new entity in the game, which was a large pink egg that would float and move around. You could capture the egg by surrounding it with blocks. It hatched into a Spritzee eventually. You could tame it with flowers and it had the effect of luring mobs with its scent.
