i do not think the reason james was obsessed w lily in canon and regulus in fanon bcuz james likes to be degraded. no, he took it as a challenge. he was cocky and knew that he was hot shit, he knew he could get anyone he wanted but lily/regulus were acting uninterested and that made him mad and he wanted nothing more than make them fall in love with them. he wanted to say "i can get anyone i want, look at you (lily/regulus) i wanted you to love me and u did, i won" not that he is a happy dog who is waiting for treats and likes it when people gets mean w him. no actually, he wanted to make mean people beg for him so he could ego boost. that was his motive and maybe on the way he fell in love with lily/regulus who knows lol

#no bc literally.. #biblically accurate james potter #to me

"Why can't the freaks on AO3 just go and make a site for all the gross stuff and leave AO3 alone."

Because AO3 is that site. Because AO3 was that site long before you decided AO3 was better than the sites you bullied us off of before, and I can promise you if someone somehow comes up with a fanfic site you like better specifically for the 'gross stuff' you'll try to bully us off that too so you can benefit from it.

AO3's specific core purpose is to preserve fanfiction, yes, but it was also instigated as a host site for the fanfiction that kept getting yeeted off other platforms like Wattpad. Its designed to preserve all fanfiction, not just the fanfiction you, personally, think is 'allowed' to be written.

AO3 is the site for all the gross stuff the freaks make. We've been there just as long as you. We've been funding it just as long as you have. AO3 has specifically said you have a place here. The timeline was literally:

Wattpad/FF.net/LiveJournal purge fanfics > AO3 is born > The people who's fics got purged moved over to AO3 > AO3 gains popularity as the best functioning site > The people who pushed for the fics to be purged off Wattpad move to AO3 > The same people try to push for AO3 to purge fics.

AO3's source coding is open-access. You go make a polished, strict, rigid site where nothing 'icky' is allowed. You go make a site where you can control what is hosted. We already have our space.
