He's What I Like To Call A Feral Good

Eclipse pt 1/4 🌔

Hands appreciation post<3 there will be more :)

don't give up on me yet - good ending

in my head, greg went to go find DJMM and tried to reboot the big guy to help him clear a path while he tracks down where cassie is underground (i turned "cassie never finding the big guy in the dlc" a set up in my head) while Vanessa tried activating the security nodes to get mxes back online again

I wanted freddy's claims that DJMM "is a friend" to pay off somewhere

oh and also freddy's head stays with Vanessa, but she connected him online to have access to the maps so he can help guide greg and keep in contact through the fazwatch

Anybody else got that Evergiven sized writers block

I'm just putting this out there because I'm thinking about it and because I want people to know it's not just them.

I don't really read fic anymore. It's not because I stopped liking it, though. It's because I made a rule for myself that I'm not able to follow.

I told myself that if I read a fic, I should comment on it. And not just "I loved it!" but a detailed comment. A live reaction or at least quoting favourite lines. Maybe talk about symbolism or about references I caught or about characterization etc.

I did that because I loved the authors I was reading and because I'd received so many lovely comments like that and I wanted to be able to pass that joy onto others. But then I found it hard to actually comment like that.

I could manage it sometimes? Oneshots weren't too hard, for example, but multichaps? My rule was that I had to comment every chapter. And the kinds of comments I wanted to write, well that meant reading on my laptop because I hate typing on my phone.

Eventually, I felt so guilty when I read fic without commenting on it that I stopped reading fic altogether. Better to just not read if I wasn't able to hold up my end of the bargain.

I shifted out of my fandom not long after that, and I haven't found a new one that's sparked the same interest (ie obsession), so I don't know if I might be able to fix this habit if I ever get into a new fandom in the future. All I know is, don't be like me.

Comment as you can and when you can, but don't set up strict rules like I did. I can't speak for all authors of course, but I know that personally, I'd rather you enjoy my work without commenting at all rather than make yourself feel so guilty you stop reading it altogether.

Guys, gals, enbies, people who are posting on AO3 do not care about the things you don't like about their fics. Seriously, you don't need to tell us and, in fact, we're basically pleading with you to not tell us.

Don't like how it's being written? Click back.

Don't like one of the characters? Click back.

Have nothing positive to say? Click back.

Legit do not comment your negative shit because we do not care.

We're not writing for you, we're sharing it with you.

this is a safe space for toxic relationships and unhealthy romance and unhealthy power balances and of course who could forget stockholm syndrome
