Fic authors deserve more credit.
Story time: I started a book about 23 hours ago and just finished it. Also in that time I slept for 10 hours, spent time with family, was at work, etc. Anyway, I enjoyed the book (Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda). But it felt like it flew by, so after I finished I looked up the word count because what are pages? Pages are meaningless. I only function in word counts anymore.
The estimate I found was 58,580. My immediate reaction was “oh, that’s why. That’s nothing!” But what a shitty response. Because no. That’s not nothing. That’s a whole. Damn. Book. An entire novel! And Fic authors regularly bust out 30k, 50k, 100k, 150k words. AND THEY DO IT FOR FREE. WHILE WORKING AND LIVING THEIR LIVES.
So anyway, thank your favorite fic author today because they deserve it. Because they’re amazing. They’re the MVPs.

You: This generation wants to fuck vampires and shit. What happened to the time when vampires were scary?
Me, an intellectual (who wrote her BA Thesis about this very topic): The Vampire as a literary device literally developed out of east European folk stories as a way to explore anxieties and fears around sex. You’re supposed to want to fuck them, that’s the whole point!

...How could I forget about this- ANYWAY--
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What if Ikemen Sengoku Husbands had a daughter and what will they do when the baby woke up in the middle of night?
PART 2
1. Kenshin
Baby: *starts to cry* Uhnnn QAQ
MC: *wakes up* Ah, the baby-.. Anata no, put the sword back.
Kenshin: ...tch. *puts back his sword* It's alright. Let me do this.
MC: Thank you Honey. And don't bring your sword along okay? It's normal for babies to wake up at this hour and there's no ninja or any ghosts.
Kenshin: I should put some trap-
MC: No (*´﹀`*).
Kenshin:...tch.
He clicked his tongue but his expression changes the moment he craddle his daughter in his arms, chuckling when she giggle and pat her small hands on his eyebrows.
Kenshin: You like my eyes..?
Baby: *giggle*
Kenshin: *smiles softly*
MC: (oh this is not good for my heart- ah my nose is bleeding (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)-)
Kenshin: MC- *assumes there's enemy when he see MC's nose bleeding + start to take his sword again*
Baby: *still giggling and no terrified look when there's sword near her. At all*
That's Kenshin's daughter INDEED.

Yukimura: *shakes his head* n-no. No no no no no I'm good. *shut his sleepy eyes and open it again* I'm good. You should rest.

MC: Hehee you are just teasing your father huh 😊? *pinch her daughter's cheeks lightly* ❤
4. Sasuke
A whimper sound can be heard and suddenly the warmth next to MC has turned mild, where the sound just now has gone silent at the same time.
MC: (Hmm...? I thought the baby has woke up...?) *rubs her eyes and look to her side*
MC almost let out a laugh when there's a log with drawn glasses on it + sticky note saying "Sleeping with Kawaii Wife" were placed beside her.
Sasuke: *whispers softly* Shh.. It's alright, I'm here.
MC: *eventually rose from futon and hugged sasuke from behind*
Sasuke: Ah, I woke you up? I'm sorry, MC.
MC: Aww don't be sorry. Thank you for calming her for me (ˊ˘ˋ*) ❤
Sasuke: But.. Is it me or our baby is heavier than usual?
MC: Hm? *peeks* ....well of course. You are hugging a pot, Honey (-"-;).
Sasuke: Oh.
MC:...*sigh* where's your glasses?
Sasuke: I guess it must be on the drawer, MC.
MC: *bites her lips from laughing when Sasuke is facing the telescope and not her*
Baby: *giggles* >w<
MC: Well.. That helps to stop her crying tho (*´∨`*)
Sasuke: *pat* Such cute daughter I have.
MC: Honey, that's Kunai. Not our baby.
Sasuke: Oh- no wonder she becomes super small.
MC: ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ......
Done!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ (No kennyo, didn't plan to insert him, forgive me)

Fandom:
Adults: *create a space for other adults*
Minors*: *come into that space*
Minors: this isn’t a safe space for kids!!
Adults: …..uhh no, it’s not.
Minors: why are you personally attacking me personally?
Adults: ….????????…………
Minors: I know you want to fuck children
Me: *looks at fic with one character that’s in his 40′s and another that’s in his 50′s, with no children in sight*
Me: ………please get out of my house
(I still get a lot of responses to this post calling me a pedo and I am t i r e d of this bottom-of-the-barrel quality discourse)
* this obviously doesn’t apply to all minors, and to all those minors (like me, when I was your age!) that manage to enjoy and participate in fandom without calling everyone a pedophile, I appreciate you.
