You had been without Eddie for a few months, it had been hard without physical and sexual contact but you made done with phone and video calls.

One day, you received a random package. Inside was a note, curiously you began to read it.

For my love

May our sex life never die

Eddie

You laughed at the note before ripping open the box in front of you, much to your surprise it was a sex toy. Gasping in shock, you quickly dialed Eddie’s number.

He answered almost instantly, his voice sending tingles through your body.

''So you received it?'' you could hear his smirk through the phone, laughing with him as you examined it.

He informed you of the instructions and when he thought you could use it, laughing in shock at his words. You were slightly excited to use it.

''It says I have to charge it up but we can try it out later if you would like?'' you posed the question to him, instantly getting a happy response.

You continued chatting for a few minutes more before he headed off to band practice and sound check. You were always sad when your calls ended, you treasured them but as you placed the toy on charge. Excitement bubbled inside you, the idea of connecting with Eddie whilst being miles apart intrigued you.

Busying yourself until you hear the alert of the Lush being fully charged, staring at you in your hands. You wondered if it would be able to fit inside you, you and Eddie had yet to test out the kinkier side of your sex life.

Deciding not to wait for Eddie, you undressed. Lying on your back with your legs spread apart, you began teasing yourself. Beginning with soft touches against your clit until you felt yourself become more excited, sliding your fingers down towards your opening you slid a finger inside you. It was cold and uncomfortable to begin with, you hadn't touched yourself in a long while.

Scrolling down your messages, you found some photos that Eddie sent you. His big veiny dick appeared on the screen, making you gasp as you slid your fingers in and out imagining that he was there fucking you. Feeling yourself getting wetter and wetter, you slide another finger inside you until that wasn't enough. Your pussy begging for more than two fingers, you stared at the lush toy in your hand.

You paused to set up the app, feeling it vibrate in your hand. Making you giggle slightly, as you moved it closer to your opening. You had been practicing with your pelvic muscles, Eddie wasn't exactly small. Continuing these exercises as you felt the toy inside you, making you gasp with shock.

Opening the app, you began messing with the controls. Instantly you dropped your phone on the bed, grasping onto the bed covers your moans and gasps filled the room. Your hips buckled at the sensation, it was already on the highest setting and your legs were shaking. Managing to grab your phone, you don't hesitate to call Eddie just as the toy begins to vibrate harder and harder inside you.

''Hi babe!'' Eddie's voice echoed through the phone, a big smile was plastered on his face. You bit your lip as he showed you the band on the screen, only whimpering to yourself as he walked backstage.

''So are you okay babe?'' his voice became mumbled as he walked through the hallway into a quiet secluded room.

You turned off the screen to the Lush app, automatically sending him the link to your toy. Allowing yourself to moan as your face was blocked.

Once you opened the video call again to see Eddie's face looking shocked but mildly aroused. You giggled through a quieter moan, watching as Eddie connected his headphones.

''Are you using it now?'' he whispered into the phone, his eyes not leaving yours.

You nodded with a moan.

''I sent you the link if you want to control it'' you gasped, watching him disappear. His voice was husky and hot as he muttered 'fuck' under his breath, moving the controls with his fingers and listening to you moan louder down his ear.

'Fuck Daddy, that feels so good'' you whined, placing your phone next to your head as you relaxed into the movements.

Eddie growled at the name 'Daddy'.

“God sweetheart, you’re turning me so much” he gasped as he listened to you moaning into the phone.

Controlling your toy, he held his finger to the maximum option. His bulge in his boxers grew tighter and tighter as he listened to your moans.

His hand slid down his jeans as he closed his eyes, feeling his length around his hand as he softly stroked it to the sound of you.

“I’ve missed you” his voice was breathless as his fingers touched the tip of his dick, your moans filled his ears.

Your whimpers, he went back to the video call screen and watched your facial expressions as you watched yourself.

“It feels so good Daddy, you could make cum”’your whine made him gasp as he tightly grasped his dick.

“You should Sweetheart, cum for Daddy” he began panting hard as thrusted his dick between his hands, not taking his eyes off you.

He went off the video screen and began playing with your contrôle, melting into his boxers as you filled up his headphones loudly. Moaning in unison as your legs shook violently, his chosen vibrations were heavenly as you placed the phone on your chest making sure your moans were being directed into the speaker.

You could hear Eddie’s soft grunts as he touched himself, increasing the vibrations bit by bit until you felt yourself reaching your climax.

“Daddy, oh fuck. I’m so close” panting as the toy edged closer and closer, listening to Eddie’s moan on the other side of the phone.

He watched you as your eyes began to roll back, your moans increased a pitch as you came hard. Squirting hard against your Lush toy, coating the bed and your legs.

Smirking as you looked at him, he was biting his lip.

“Want me to help Daddy cum?” You looked at him innocently, as you moved your fingers down to taste yourself. Keeping your eyes on him.

He nodded through his moans, his eyes were filled with lust and want as they stared through you. Your words were angelic to him, his hair was sweaty and stuck to his face as he panted.

“You’re such a good boy for me, touching yourself like that. You’re going to play with your tip, like Mommy, aren’t you?” Your eyes were seductive and soft, as his head tipped back with ecstasy as his fingers played his tip.

Eddie whimpered as you praised him, his pants were quicker and more aggressive as his eyes rolled back. You could see his Adam’s Apple which was engorged as he moaned, biting your lip. You moved your hand between your thighs and softly stroked your clit to the sight of him.

His eyes opened, filled with lust and sensitivity as he stroked himself through his orgasm. Gasping as he heard you whimper with him, his tip twitched with every touch. Thrusting into his hand as he imagined he was fucking you, making the phone tremble.

Your praise echoed in his brain as he gasped suddenly, feeling himself cum hard in his hands. His eyes widened at the sight, biting your lip and you focused on him. As he continued to stroke himself, making himself cum for the second time.

“Did that feel good baby?” Your voice was giddy as you smirked at him, he nodded. Still holding his soft dick around his fingers, not wanting to move.

His eyes gazed at you, full of love.

“You’re so goddamn pretty” he sounded slightly annoyed at the prospect, his thoughts were interrupted with loud knock sounds on the other side of the door.

Sighing in annoyance, he removed his hand and got closer to the door. Not opening it, he spoke through the door. It was his manager, informing him that the rest of the band had gone to eat.

“Thanks Nigel, I’ll probably join you guys in a bit. Bye” his head was pressed against the door as he pulled faces into the camera. Your laugh resonated through the camera making him smile.

You continued talking for a few moments until Eddie told you that he should probably clean his hands, you smirked and kissed the camera in unison with him.

“I love you babe. Speak to you soon, I’ll miss you” his voice sounded sad as you ended the call.

Falling heavily onto the bed, silence filled your ears as you clutched onto the phone. Sighing, you felt suddenly so sad breathing through your potential tears. Trying your hardest to repress them until they spilled down your cheeks, you pushed your head into the pillow and began to cry heavily.

Eddie's face appeared in your mind, your heart ached for his touch in real life. It had been so long since you saw him last, every time the call ended you ached for him. His voice still made you tremble, soothing and turning you on all in one.

You had fallen in love with him hard and fast, he caught your fall with his love.

Months before tour, he promised you that he would be back sooner than expected. It had been 6 months since you last saw his face, this gift off him was exciting for you both. It connected you in a way that you never thought was possible.

As you got ready for work the next day, you received a text message from Eddie.

Hey Sweetheart,

I hope you have a good day at work.

Here is a fun idea, why don't you put your lush in and we can have some fun together today? ;)

You laughed at his message, opening the draw to where you had neatly tucked your lush into. Staring at it before deciding to take his advice, warming yourself up before sliding it in inside you with an 'oof'

Hey Eds,

I have it in me,

On my way to work now, let's have that fun. ;)

Sitting in your car as you began driving to work, you had connected the toy to Eddie's toy. Feeling nothing for the first few moments, as you pulled up to the lights. You began to vibrate, grasping onto the steering wheel as you gasped loudly. Your legs were shaking as you struggled to place your feet on the pedals.

Moaning loudly into the steering wheel gathering yourself together as you drove towards work. He was messing with the controls as you drove the work, your hips grinding against the chair as your clit pulsated.

Mumbling 'fuck' under your breath as you pulled up to work, sitting the parking lot for a few moments. Deciding to text Eddie as you sat in a pool of your own making.

Hey Eds,

Just got to work, you had me shaking on the drive over.

Please for me, keep it on the low setting. I don't want to get caught!

I love you

He replied almost instantly,

Hey Sweetheart,

Well that's no fun but you've got me so hard just thinking about you like that. I'll try and behave myself.

I love you too

Throughout the day, Eddie continued to play with the controls on your toy. Forcing you to go into the store rooms just to moan and catch your breath as he increased the speed, you sent him videos of yourself in store room moaning his name. Before you'd head out to greet the public with the low buzzing feeling between your legs.

As you walked to your car at the end of the day, you had not been able to cum all day. Your clit was throbbing, aching for release. You decided to ring Eddie as you drove home, letting him increase the speed.

He answered your video call within seconds, the sight of his face sent shivers down your body. Your clit twitched at the sight of his tongue.

''Hey Eds'' your voice was shaky and moany as you bit your lip, he smirked before changing the insensitivity of the controls between 100% and 1%, listening to you whimper for more.

''I bet your pretty pussy is so sore, needing to cum huh?'' his voice was dark and husky, a soft chuckle escaped his mouth as he heard your needy moans.

''Please Eddie, I need to'' you whined.

''I'm sorry but I don't know who Eddie is, use my real name Sweetheart if you want to cum'' his voice was deeper as he warned you.

''Uh huh, sorry Daddy'' you bit your lip as you stared at the camera.

''Good girl, now lets make you cum all those seats'' he groaned as he created his own pattern for you to use.

It was 3 minutes long, pressing 'use' on the app. You began shaking, your knuckles going white from gripping onto the steering wheel tightly. Your head was resting on the wheel, as you focused on the road in front of you. Eddie's voice echoed throughout the car as he coached you through the vibrations.

Grinding your clit against your underwear, in the wet pool that had collected throughout the day. It slid easily against the material, making you moan as your legs shook. Your clit hurting as it throbbed, you sped up with the movements gasping loudly as you felt yourself squirt.

You squirted three times, your legs violently moving against the chair. Your moans were loud, Eddie watched in amazement. His eyes pierced into you, making you cum a second time.

''Oh fuck Daddy, I came so hard. You're going to make me cum again aren't you?'' you whined loudly, your hands still firmly gripping the leather wheel.

Sitting in the wet patch in the seat, as your hips bucked as the vibrations increased inside of you.

''That's right Sweetheart'' his voice was sharp and clear, he was watching you as your moaned into your steering wheel.

Clenching yourself around the toy, your clit was rubbing against your underwear as he moved the controls. Your eyes rolled back as he controlled you through your orgasm, squirting once more over the chair. Gasping and panting 'Daddy' into the car as you came again.

''You've been such a good girl for Daddy. He's going to turn it off now, you need to rest okay Sweetheart'' his voice was soft and kind as he exited the controls.

Staying on the call with you until you reached home, you video called until he was called on stage. He sat and talked to you whilst you were in the bath, it felt as if he was in the room with you. The candles flickered as he stared at you covered by the bubbles of the bath.

''I love you Sweetheart, I will speak to you soon'' his voice was sad as he ended the call. Leaving you alone in the lukewarm bath, the candles were melting closer to the end.

You sat in the bath, your arms curled up to your knees until the water became cold. Emotionless, you wandered into the bedroom. Lying on the bed, still slightly damp, not bothering to dry yourself as you climbed into bed. Scrolling through the band's Instagram page, feeling jealous at the images of Eddie with fans. You fell asleep with your phone next to you on the pillow.

Eddie continued to play with your toy all week, making you cum in your car after work. Promising to pay for your seat to be cleaned, you laughed at his fake promises.

It was Friday, you knew that they would be playing their biggest show today. Feeling sadder at the idea of not being able to speak to Eddie for a while, he would be practicing and preparing for the big show. He had been meeting fans all day, when he finally called you.

His hair was messy, his eyes looked tired but they lit up at the sight of you. A big gleaming smile was plastered across his face, rambling to you about how amazing his fans were. Your jealousy crept through your veins but softened at the words ‘I love you’

You talked through your day until he was getting ready to go on stage, out of the blue he asked if you were near your lush toy.

‘’Yes Eddie, it’s in my drawer next to me’’ your eyebrows knitted together with a curious smile. Watching his lip curl.

‘’I want you to use it whilst I’m on stage, this might be naughty but I have an idea’’ he waited for your response before explaining his plan to you.

‘‘I replaced one of my earplugs with you, instead of the music it be your moans ‘’ his eyes were dark and hot as he stared at you.

You were intrigued by the idea, he stayed on the phone as you placed it inside you. Instructing you on how to warm yourself up, his phone was in his pocket with the camera off as he placed his headphone in his ear and walked on stage.

The screams of the crowd filled your phone, as your hands switched between playing with your clit and the controls. Making sure that Eddie could hear you, your legs in the air as you lay on your bed.

His voice echoed down the phone, your fingers sped up the pace on your clit as your eyes were tightly shut listening to Eddie sing. Listening to the crowd, as you whimpered edging closer and closer to your orgasm. You felt yourself getting wetter and wetter with every note of Eddie’s voice.

‘’ Oh Daddy, I’m so wet for you. Just the sound of your voice makes me wet’’ your voice was strangled through your moans, gasping as you reached your orgasm. Your legs rapidly shaking, your phone moving across your chest as you came hard.

‘’Oh fuck, I came for you Daddy’’ you whined, moving the phone closer to your mouth to make sure Eddie heard.

As you leant forward to switch the camera mode, you accidentally muted Eddie. Gasping as you struggled to find the microphone button, not hearing Eddie on the other side of the phone. As you were forced onto your back, the vibrations of the lush toy made you moan with pleasure. Your body temperature increased with the fluctuating speed of the remote, unable to grab your phone you moaned as close to the speaker as you could.

‘’Oh Daddy’’ your moan came out whining and desperate as the controls went crazy on the screen as it sent you between high intensity and low intensity.

Your body rubbing against the bed as you moved with the toy, your muscles clenching around it. Your knuckles were hurting from the grip you had on the cover, your continuous moans echoed down the phone.

Managing to get your body closer to your phone, you scrambled to find the microphone setting needing to hear his voice on the other side of the phone.

‘’I need to hear your voice Daddy, I won’t be able to cum without it’’ you sounded needy and pathetic as you whined down the speaker.

Eddie began to talk to the crowd slowly as you groaned, not caring about who was controlling the toy. Your body fell back onto the bed, his voice sent shivers down your spine as it echoed into the speaker. You had moved the phone closer to your ear, you were grinding your clit against your hand as the toy pulasted inside of you.

Your legs tightened, your eyes opened quickly with a loud gasp. Squirting all over the bed, all over your legs and hands, you continued to move your hand through your orgasm as your body began to shake.

‘’Thank you Daddy, oh thank you. It feels so good’’ panting heavily, you turned the camera towards your face. Watching as it glitched, Eddie’s face appeared on the screen

‘’You sounded so good Sweetheart’’ he too was breathless, his face was dripping with sweat as he beamed at you. The lights illuminating his face, his eyes twinkled as he stared at you.

‘’It felt so good! Were you controlling it the whole time? ’’ you chuckled, your body relaxing as the toy paused its vibrations. Waiting for him to respond.

‘Well, Sweetheart…. Didn’t you hear me?’’ a sheepish look swept his face as he laughed.

‘’No Eds, it felt too good. I think I turned off the audio’’ you sheepishly laughed with him but shot him a puzzled look.

‘’Uh-- actually… it wasn’t me… I-i Uh passed it to the crowd and told them to activate it for a meet and greet’’ he scratched his head as he tried to avoid your gaze with embarrassment.

‘’What?’’ you replayed his words over and over in your head, trying to figure out how you felt.

You wanted to be angry, annoyed for not asking for your permission but as you stared at him. Your feelings changed, finding yourself thinking about how hot it was that Eddie actively listened to someone else encourage you to cum but only he was the one who could hear you.

After explaining your feelings to Eddie, you suggested that you do it again.

‘’Eddie, I had never came so hard in my life. The only rule I have is that I want you to hear me cum though’’ you winked at him, feeling hot and bothered at the idea of cumming that hard again.

You knew that connecting in this way with him was enough, your sex life would be strengthened when he finally came home but now the idea of him making you cum in a different country got you so hot and bothered.

Smile, Jay!

A/N: I have completed this ahead of schedule. By a whole whopping day but, hey. I can’t complain about that! Anyways, someone did request a fluff fic of Jason and Bruce just being goofballs as father and son. So here it is! I hope you enjoy!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jason was confused. He didn’t know what the hell had gotten into Bruce, but the man wouldn’t stop messing with him. Sometimes when he passed by Jason, whether in the hall or on the couch, he would poke at him or give him a quick tickle. And it was random. He didn’t do it every time so it kept Jason on his toes. Jason was now constantly on edge whenever he was around Bruce. Even out on patrol.

Thankfully, Bruce didn’t mess with him while they were out as vigilantes. They had a reputation to upkeep. Regardless, Jason’s nerves couldn’t handle much more. He didn’t know when Bruce was going to cause an unmanly shriek to rip out of him again.

Unluckily for him, a rare opportunity came that Bruce took advantage of. Jason was minding his business in the kitchen, humming to himself as he reached up into the cabinet to grab a glass. Mistake number one. Mistake number two was not paying attention to his surroundings. As soon as his arm went up, Bruce had silently snuck up behind his unsuspecting son and tickled his armpit.

An inhuman screech ripped out of Jason’s throat as his arm slammed down against his side. He lurched forward slightly to get away only to realize he was trapped by the counter. And the tickling in his armpit didn’t stop. Laughter bubbled out of him like a carbonated drink as he squirmed to get away.

“Dahahahammit Bruhuhuce! Stahahahap it!”

Bruce chuckled warmly at his son’s reaction.

“Now why would I when I’ve only just begun?”

Jason’s eyes snapped wide momentarily as Bruce’s other hand joined the fray right above his hip. He hunched forward against the cold countertop as more hysterical laughter started to flow past his lips. He fought to dislodge Bruce’s hands from his ticklish flesh, to no avail.

“DOHON’T YOU DAHAHAHAHARE!” He cried out as the hand that was lodged in his armpit made its way down to join the other near his hips. He’s knees felt like they were about to buckle if this continued. Bruce was having the time of his life tickling the crap out of his edgelord child.

“Give me a reason why I shouldn’t. You hardly ever laugh anymore, much less smile. It’s a nice change to see.” Bruce commented, noting the flush that appeared on Jason’s ears.

“IT TIHIHIHIHICKLES! NOHOHOW STAHAHAHAP IT YOHOHOU ASS!”

“That’s the point, though!” Bruce laughed along with him as he finally clawed into his hips. The absolute scream that came out of him could’ve shattered glass. Jason went down to the ground after that, Bruce following suit with his tickling fingers. Jason tried as hard as he could to squirm away, but he was weakened by his own laughter.

“NOHOHOHOHO! NOHOHOT THEHEHERE! BRUCE NOHOHOHOHO! PLEHEHEHEASE! I SURRENDER! STAHAHAHAHAP!”

After a couple of minutes of screeching hysterical laughter, Jason had tears in his eyes and his face was almost as red as his helmet. Bruce knew it was time to stop when his laughter became hoarse and hiccupy. He stilled his fingers, smiling as he looked down at Jason with fondness.

“Been a long time since I’ve heard you laugh that hard. I missed that smile.” He ruffled his hair as he stood up. Jason groaned, laying a hand on his stomach as his other arm draped over his red face, soft giggles still escaping his smiling lips.

“I just wanted some orange juice, man…” He grumbled out. Bruce laughed.

“Sorry. You were wide open. I couldn’t pass up the opportunity.” He helped Jason up, patted his back, and left the kitchen so Jason could get his juice in peace. Little did The Bat know, Red Hood’s revenge would be swift and ruthless.

A lot of people seemed to like my last one, so woe! More fic ideas be upon all ye again; compilation of au ideas I posted in LQ and haven't been edited to be easier to read edition!

(below the cut, because theres like 12 of them and its a big messy mess)

Nem?Tang fic where they wake up in some ancient convergent domain plant device with only hazy memories of how they got there but nothing solid enough to work off of, and also why is their hair so long, and where are their clothes, and where is the goddamn colony? Because oopsie daisy! it seems that somebody put them in the ancient alien magitech healing goo and forgot to take them out when they were done, and now two hundred years have passed and everybody else they know and love are long dead, and also apparently some giant ass fleet of earth guys tried to land while they were having a snooze but! oh! whoopsie! yet again! somebody sent them the wrong information about how to safely get through the wormhole and the majority of the fleet did not make it to the surface in one piece!!! and the some of the survivors may or may not have folk stories about people that may or may not be Nem and Tang’s loved ones doing either great or terrible things during those two hundred years they were sleeping through!!

mermaid au where Besk was a mermaid trapped in a research facility and Instance broke her out during her ecoterrorist days but Besk couldn’t go back to the ocean because (hand waves) so she stayed with Instance as a slightly-more-free test subject who could technically come and go as she pleases, and she did, and eventually came back from one of her outings with two whole goddamn babies, and despite their both their hopes both babies seem to be pretty much normal human babies except for the occasional weird non-human thing, like eating whole raw eggs or Tangent having an overnight sex change shortly after saying she’s a girl, and feeling like she’s the only mermaid left in the world eventually leads Besk to doing the same thing she always does, and now Instance is stuck with two ambiguously half-human grieving kindergartners, and now it’s the world’s words hybrid of Wolf Children and The Thirteenth Year (with a mild dose of human experimentation sprinkled on top)

modern day/modern-ish all humans on earth au fic where Sym is a pre-school teacher(or aid??) who just moved to a new town with his beloved edgelord of a boyfriend who never wants to talk about his past or childhood and Sym only knows bits and pieces that he’s mentioned over the past few years (but that’s fine he’s just got his secrets nothing new there), and at his new job with his new class there’s a young single parent of twins that also moved into town only a little bit after he did, and apparently they don’t have anybody in their life besides their kids, they don’t have any family and the kids dad isn’t in the picture, so he does the nice friendly thing and offers to lend a hand if they need help with anything, and one afternoon as he’s supposed to be leaving work after making sure that the kids are all picked up, he spots said single parent and said beloved edgelord talking/arguing about something, because apparently they used to know each other but haven’t seen each other in a long while, and his boyfriend doesn’t wanna hear what “actually super important and kinda immediately relevant” thing that his old friend wants to talk about, and before Sym can really stop them the two kids go running to greet their parent, and look we all know where this plot is heading fellas

(not sure if this one should follow Tang or Dys primarily but Imma go with Tang side for this) fic where there’s more people than canon but they’re still on Vertumna with little research on it & Sol has dream memories (maybe use part of the old idea about the Helio arriving as part of a mini fleet instead of a lone ship?), and Tang’s intelligence is lauded like in canon and she’s put into the best position to learn smarty smarts stuff, while Dys’ rebelliousness gets him no favors with the Man and gets himself marked as a troubled kid and moved away from his sister, with Tang being told that she can seek him out once she’s an adult if she still wants to but for now not to waste her time or energy on worrying about him and focus on her studies. She keeps hearing him being mentioned in passing as being part of some big secret alien-centric program to so she knows that he hasn’t gone awol, but she still doesn’t see him for the next 3 to 5 years even tho she still gets to see most of the other kids (bar Sol, who was also yoinked by the secret alien program). Fast forward to her being an adult enough adult who seems appropriately level headed for doing amoral sciences, so she’s invited to see the big important secret alien project, and “_so Tangent, you know how some of the xenofauna can pass information and feeling between individuals of different species through physical contact, and that there’s some functional technology leftover from the alien civilization that lived here beforehand? And that your brother spent a lot of time exploring ruins? And how sometimes science needs sacrifices? For the greater good and all that? :)?” and Tang gets to see her brother as one of the star subjects of the project’s attempt to recreate a messy version of the array (while not even understanding what it actually is)

like 3 different variants (Geranium, Flulu, and Hal+Tonin+Sol’s she group on a field trip” of “like 3 weeks after landing somebody falls into a mini wormhole and comes out 25 years into the future, except none of them went missing in the second timeline, and now they’re in the future having to deal with the way life actually turned out, and they don’t even know all of the stuff that their other selves do/did, because they may or may not be alive still in this other timeline”. (Actually what got me into working on all those future kid things because I wanted to know who’d be doing what when and with who)

au where Besk blacks out shortly before her suicide attempt and wakes up in a cave on Vertumna, having 0 idea where she is or how she got there, and stumbles around thinking she’s dead until one of the surveyors finds her, and upon getting back to the colony she finds out that she’s supposed to have been dead for the last 11 or so years, with her two five year olds now being sixteen (the same age as her when she left Earth & also how long she spent on the Strato), and she has to learn how to adapt to everything and being alive when she shouldn’t be while there are so many others who died and aren’t magically alive again, and also has to do all this while more or less locked under constant observation, because BOY nobody is going to casually leave her alone for like, so many reasons

fic that opens with Kom waking up in the medbay after the age 14 glow attack and Nem and their younger brothers and all his friends are so unbelievably glad he’s awake and ok, but he keeps learning about the not canon possible things that happened either during the attack or while he was healing (like his mom dying while helping the kids evacuate the creche or chief Rhett and Sol’s parents having died defending geoponics), and he’s just stuck with this unending feeling that he’s supposed to be dead right now, but he’s not, and I’m not sure where to go with the story past that

au where Kom wakes up five years before the Strato reaches the wormhole with the knowledge that he’s going to die ten years from now, and it more or less follows a dreamer Kom story except that he knows that his story only has one conclusion, and rather than trying to prevent his own death he spends that time trying to save and protect as many people in his life as he can (maybe prequel to above scenario?)

obligatory single “nice” modern au fic except that nice has to be in quotation marks because technically it’d be about Dys breaking into Sym’s house after committing a major felony and definitely in a big hurty thinking that it was abandoned, but like surprise! it’s not! and even tho Dys fully expects Sym to call the cops on him and wake up in jail he instead wakes up in Sym’s guest room and immediately assumes that he either died already, accidentally tripped into the fae realm, or Sym is some kinda polite hannibal ass serial killer, and it’d be just a whole bunch of Sym being genuinely kind and nice to Dys while Dys is just “y tho like literally what is wrong with you”, and it takes like 2 years and several more major felonies for them to get together. also this might’ve spawned off of the earlier pre school teacher one but it’s not 100% attached to it so that’s why it has it’s own bulletpoint

2.5 flavors of a Hunger Games AU, which are "special games where its announced that this year each district has to send two siblings/other close family members, and the twins get reaped in their district", "one of the younger boys gets reaped but Kom volunteers in their place", and "Tang watching as Dys gets reaped the first year he's applicable for it and she can't do anything about it, and then having to watch as Kom (in his last year of being applicable) volunteers in her brother's place and all of his siblings are now freaking out" which only came to me as I was sharing the first two.

also have this flawless related image

au where Sym sees videos of wild animals in urban areas being relocated to a better habitat on the data thing Sol gives him and he comes up with a fresh new idea; cut to his two favorite humans (age 13/14) waking up on a strange beach some few thousand kilometers away from the colony several weeks later with 0 idea how they got there (ark opening tune starts to play)

also whatever this is

anyways, that's definately not all of the random au ideas I've had and don't include some of the more developed ones I've actually made effort to work on/flesh out, but these were on hand and I wanted to share them too

#i was a teenage exocolonist #iwatex #wips #this is really messy and chaotic and basically copied from my phones note app #also yeah. these do all kinda start with somebody waking up in a situation. but this is the wake up again game so I'm allowed to do that

Hmmm... how about we go with Yuuri?

guess what, it’s yuri-related rambling time!!

> general opinion/how much i care about them: as it’s not hard to guess by the many art pieces of him that i’ve drawn and posted, i really like this guy! he’s actually one of my favorite arc v characters — neatly written, well-based (even if partially shallow at that), with some threads hanging loose that i can snatch at and extend at my leisure, plus a condescending bastard personality befitting the kind of petty antags that i enjoy. i love how unhinged and impactful he gets in the show, all while retaining characteristics that make him likable and believable as a character

> a ship i love: considering yuri’s personality/backstory and the way he works in the canon, i don’t really see him, you know, forging deep romantic relationships or attachments of any kind, since the academy has pretty much effectively deprived him of the need/possibility to do so. i like the possible take on his relation with sora, but only as mostly a one-sided thing (on sora’s part) and rather something yuri engages in unseriously, just because why not. tbh, i don’t like his ship with serena that much — partially because i don’t see the appeal of their dynamic (which they don’t have much of in the canon anyway), partially because she’s a lesbian and the show-writers told me so personally seeing him as a not-shippable character sits right enough with me

> non-romantic relationship i love: i’m taking this outside the canon, for reasons above-described. his relationship with serena when viewed as an early childhood friends thing that broke off due to the academy’s influence is nice. what’s even nicer and works even less in the canon is his possible dynamic with yugo though. i thought of it randomly while planning out a fic and from then on i’m absolutely down for the chaotic friendship they could have, with them bickering a lot, but gradually opening up in front of each other (yuri very gradually, yugo casually oversharing everything since day one), yugo being the person with enough goodwill to put up with yuri and yuri being the surprised edgelord that he’d get when he realizes he’s got an actual friend ready to stick with/up for him despite his lousy personality

> NOTP: romantic-wise probably the ship with serena, though i’m not particularly against it either, just not something i’d go for by my own initiative. not quite digging the ship with yuya too, but without any real reason apart from what has already been written

> fanfiction idea: (limiting myself to two on that. prepare for random screenshots without context)

my first pick will always be the arc v / zexal crossover fic i already mentioned here, where yuri is the professor’s right hand man and academy’s commander, busy in the xyz dimension, working along with yugo (under reiji’s supervision, reluctantly) to track down and apprehend xyz rebels — or other people who have unknowingly strayed where they shouldn’t have

the second one is not a yuri-centered wip, but he plays a role in the plot (as the thing is told from sora’s point of view). i’ve grown to like it because i started writing it while though ~one/third of arc v and i made up most of yuri’s character on the spot as he hadn’t had much screen time by then. long story short, thought were being thunk (that’s this wip’s name by the way) and i hope i’ll get down to finishing it. one day.

> something that makes me think of them:

these poisonous, kill-a-fellow, bright-color-mess, malicious suckers — you may guess why. and exotic snakes in general, actually far more than the jungle plants he’s associated with in the canon

#yugioh #yuri arc v #ask game #sorry for the wait! i had to collect my thoughts on that one

Since crisis core reunion came out recently, what are your thoughts about it ?

Also do you like Angeal and Genesis as characters ?

Have a good whatever-your-timezone-time !

Okay-- first about Gen and Angeal. I like Zack having a father/big bro/mentor figure and I love Angeal's weird sense of humour! I have a big thing for samurai and knights so Angeal just fits those shoes. I never liked Genesis, though. I just roll my eyes whenever he makes an appearance. I liked fan-Gen in many fics, but... never the canon one.

As for CCR itself.

Big oof. Big tldr. Sorry!

I'm one of those Gomez obsessed people. Gomez is Zack for me. I was giving the new VA a lot of chances and I do think he gets much better after Aerith shows up for the first time, but I have to admit that I suffered for the first three hours of playing. I wanted to smack Zack, he seemed too cocky and basically-- an edgelord like everyone else. Angeal and Genesis seem so emotionless and If I heard the new VAs now wo any picture, I wouldn't recognize them at all. And don't get me started on Seph. Boi. I love CC's and Newbern's Seph. I felt genuinely sorry about his fate when I watched CC for the first time and had no idea what was going on. But when the big scene in CCR happened... I just. Yeah. Whatever.

I also expected to be disappointed by Kunsel, bc in my head he'll forever be James McAvoy. Why you can't read my mind, Sqx, HUH?! But the disappointment when he introduced himself as 'council' (which yeah, I know that's why he's named Kunsel in the first place, he's a tutorial) instead of 'koonsel' like they mentioned him in 7R, that was a kick in my stomach. I mean. CCR's Lux and Kunsel should switch voice actors to fit my taste for them hahah...

But Cloud and Aerith were both great!!! <3

Apart from the dub mess, I really enjoyed the gameplay! It's much faster than the old CC/and most of 7R actually, the option to skip the cutscenes is sweet and doesn't break the flow. The Buster Xping? Whaaat? I don't remember that! And the plus points for the success or fails in the battles! That's so cool! I also surprisingly really enjoyed missions with Yuffie (not a fan of hers). And boi do I LOVE the environment glow up! <3 The underwater caves?? Hellooo??

However, it's the new dub, that doesn't distract me from the -- issues and problems I always had with the game in the first place. I was always willing to forgive it many things, because there were so many goofy moments and great voices. So. While I'm happy I got to play it in the end, I'm a bit sour on the topic.

Yes, I could play it in Japanese, but... I just. Can't focus and like to understand my characters when the subttitles don't pop up. English isn't my native language, so switching to something even more foreign while playing isn't really an option for me. But I think I will give that option a try in the future. Out of curiosity. <3

for character ask meme, emiya alter ^^

(based on this post)

thank you, anon :D I hope I'm not too late to this ask meme thing in the FGO fandom, because I will happily gush about Emiya Alter to anyone who asks. that man needs more love.

favorite thing about them just one? all right. Emiya Alter's gone through so much-to the point where it clearly had lasting & damaging effects on him-the nihilism, abysmally poor memory, self-destructive tendencies, etc etc. he's symbolic of the "Hero of Justice" role to its furthest ends, a "weapon" meant to be of service whilst his own identity is pretty much an afterthought. but he also dives for Melt, giving her the second chance he never had. he guides Ritsuka out of his own hellish mindscape, and gives them a tow cable-a lifeline-for a Valentine's gift. he assists Voyager in saving Erice, and there's at least one or two lines where he can relate to her being an agent of death. there's hope for him yet, even though he's reached his own tragic ending. his ideas of "help" can be messed up, obviously, but he's going out of his way to try if nothing else. moreover, he needs some peace of mind after basically going through hell and back.

least favorite thing about them his original JPN design, obviously. the racism surrounding it has become indelible and synonymous with his character. obviously we don't know for sure, but it would not surprise me to learn that the reason he's received little attention in Craft Essence art is because of the controversy surrounding his character.

favorite line "Don't apologize. Good intentions are like sandpaper." I've probably analyzed this line to death, but I believe it summarizes Emiya Alter perfectly: a man whose own charity and constant vigilance for justice has eaten away at him. at the same time, he tries to disregard his own state of being as if it's no big deal; however, since he does not perceive himself as human anymore, the outcome is a lot more distressing than perhaps he might expect.

brOTP maybe Assassin Kiritsugu? I know, I know, Kiritsugu's basically a father to Emiya, but Assassin diverged from his own path in Fate/Zero so I'm sure it's fine here. my other brOTP idea is of him secretly thinking Hijikata's swordmanship is cool, even if he can't understand why Hijikata's so hellbent on upholding the Shinsengumi all the time. I can also see Alter putting up with Tamamo Berserker's outrageous behaviour towards him in a "I can't stand this, but she won't stop and it'd be a waste of energy" kind of way, and it developing into a strange but heartwarming bond later on.

OTP Emiya Alter x Yan Qing. I've only seen one (1) piece of content about it on pixiv, but they've got enough similarities (being Shinjuku villain Servants and having identity issues) and differences (Alter's serious and to the point, forging weapons-while Yan Qing is more flippant in a laid-back manner, using his fists & feet as weapons) that I'd love to write a fic shipping the two of them.

nOTP apparently a few people have shipped Alter with Kiara, of all people. I'm also personally not very fond of the Emiya Alter x Jalter pairing.

random headcanon Emiya prefers to eat alone, but he'll tolerate it if other Alters sit at his table. he wishes Nitocris Alter would stop talking about death so evocatively, as if it were a service she were performing upon other people; he sees death as an aid to his toolkit, and nothing more.

unpopular opinion I love his edgelord behaviour. it's incredibly comical how cynical he gets (his brooding over board games in BGA comes too mind), which is part of the reason. but there's something that just hits in how played straight his character usually is, and how genuine the depths of his despair go.

song i associate with them No title by Reol. a fitting song name for someone who's wholly embraced being Nameless. the chorus' lyrics particularly come to mind: Slowly and gently, it crumbles and breaks Wrap it slowly around my neck til I can't breathe And the me from yesterday was killed Slowly and gently, our scattered ennui When I hear you speak so unethically It turns to a voice I don't know

favorite picture of them he doesn't have a lot of FGO art, but I've always loved Emiya Alter's Formal Dress CE. it's sleek, sharp and overall just...so cool-looking. the pinstripe suit brings his self-ascribed mercenary role to a focal point; such suits are typically worn in professional settings, natch. then there's the smaller details, like the gears on his tie and how the tie bar on it has a Chaldean symbol. I also appreciate how his grey polo shirt is strained, emphasizing his muscles and torso.

#fgo #emiya alter #fate grand order #suicide tw #(just in case)#(given the No Title lyrics and all)

important question: are yuhuang clustermates?

anon!!! that is such a great question wow wow wow!! thank you 💙💙💙

the edgelord that lives in my heart who thrives on subverting expectations and rejecting the obvious is rattling the cage to say "absolutely not!" they are NOT clustermates, they are separate, and part of their relationship arc is learning to live in this new world with these new intimate relationships that don't include each other. (they're together before their clusters awaken, and it is an Adjustment).

in the end, it works our in their favor. the distance from each other's minds is as much of a refuge as it is a constant source of excitement to not know what the other is thinking. and as a bonus, their two clusters become closer and it's like a big extended friend family situation.

but there’s also my poor little shipper heart that insists EXCUSE U of course they are clustermates. the intimacy of having sex with the person you love romantically who is also in your head. the feedback loop of i love you i love you i love you that they mentally shout back and forth at each other in their heads just because they can.

they get to discover things about each other that they didn't even know they didn't know. when one of them is in trouble, the other immediately knows and goes feral. they were unstoppable partners before and now their coordination is on another level! also please imagine yu wenzhou borrowing huang shaotian's trash talk ability to mess with people. and did I mention the kinky sex with sexy mind links????

so yeah, that is a cop-out of an answer and clearly there needs to be multiple fics to explore all the variations because they're all great

#the king's avatar #yuhuang #this was so fun to think about thank u lovely anon!!!#anonymous #thanks for the ask!#the king's avatar ramblings

You know i gotta give you a VP character for the character opinion bingo! How about the stars of your fic, Leafos and/or Dastardos?

OOO YEA LETS GO!!

Dunno if there's still people like this but I remember as a kid people online were very rude abt Leafos being a tutorial character and I HATED that. She's just trying to be friendly and helpful!! I just think she's neat :) (Even if I will never truly forgive her for the time I spent 3 hours trying to get a badgesicle to swim in Classic. Smh) Also while I wouldn't actually adopt any of the -os siblings I do in a spiritual sense. Rip to Jardiniero but he messed up enough.

AYO DOUBLE BINGO.... Ummm I care Dastardos 🥺 I've already said that I am a firm believer that he's always been a secret gremlin edgelord and I simply Cannot Hear hcs to the contrary (jk ofc but you know) Definitely a MASSIVE bummer that he's got like, the least dialogue out of all the -os siblings but that just leaves more to interpretation, I guess >:3c

#polly speaks #ask games #character bingo #leafos #dastardos #THANKS MOODLE excuses to talk about the brainrot... we love to see it

What do you think about the idea of Gellert/Tom? There is a fic called The Seer in the Tower with Tom visiting Nurmengard that made me think Gellert would be attracted to him if they met...I like Grindeldore and Riddledore too though so the best version imo is Albus/Gellert/Tom xD

Thank for the recs I will read it 👏

I don't see Gellert having feels for anybody if not Albus, because I love their tragic eternal love.

But!! I totally see young Voldemort plotting to obtain Gellert's favour... and if he discovers Dumbledore and Grindelwald were lovers?

What a spectacular way to defeat and humiliate Dumbledore while winning a powerful ally!!!

Meanwhile Gellert is not above fooling the kid, having revenge on Albus (angry!) and plotting his own plans .

And no kidding, the idea of Gellert and Tom having sex really destabilizes Albus.

What a mess!! Now with an aromantic asexual edgelord, and two soulmates who really hurt each others.

Stupid AU I Made back in 2016 that rewrites the Pokemon Anime Post-XY and Pre-Sumo

I made an Pokemon AU back in 2016 because I loved the sumo games at the time and the anime just physically hurt me (due note I’ve been watching it since I was out of the womb)

The AU is basically just the Sumo Game’s plot for the anime, with some spices and twists taken from a fic I read around the time.

The Fic in question was your usual Ash Betrayal BAMF Ash AU and all that.

I wasn’t going to write the betrayal part because even as a small pre-teen I knew that that just didn’t fit the vibes of the Pokemon Anime, at least not the Dramatic Teen Angst Edgelord type of vibes those fics aim for

My AU would’ve had Ash go on a break from Gym Runs to have a sort of vacation in Alola to train some of his older Pokemon (due to personal bias at the time, the main team I made for him included his power houses with notes on eventually subbing in certain pokemon for training and even planning which of them evolves and how far some of them would go)

Ash is in vacation in Alola training his Pokemon, he does the Island Trails one part to have a proper goal but also to keep an eye on two trainers he met (two OCs that honestly, make things a fucking mess in the longer run and no I will not explain why) and be a sort of mentor to Kahuna Hala’s Grandson Hau and another protector to Professor Kukui and Brunet’s Ward(?) Lillie as they bounce between the Islands

The fic would’ve included Ash being smarter and more mature as I aimed for him to be around 16-17 at this point and thus much older than the OCs, Hau, and Lillie

He would’ve been the Parent Friend to the two OCs who would be his travelling companions (because I was bias and crazy as fuck at the time). Ash learns what bullshit Brock had to go through with him because one of the OCs acts as recklessly as him, if not moreso.

The plot would range to just fun shenanigans to more serious and meta things. A particular thread I would’ve made is Guzma trying to relate to/taunt Ash because of Ash’s string of failures at the League.

A lot more action base and plot of a slightly more serious shounen, doesn’t help that one of the OCs does contain that sort of reckless protagonist energy and can and will fight.

Not much else from there, some teasing of Amour maybe and Serena & Misty being friends.

A sort of opening ceremony Battle Royal between Gladion, Hau, Ash, and Kukui to show off all of the special things about Alola’s League. Silvally vs Hau’s Starter (I think I made it a Decidueye?) vs Ash-Greninja vs Kukui’s Incineroar

Speaking of the League, my plan for it was for it to be a League that included alumni of previous Leagues mixed in with previous Island Challenge Champions. Because it’s Alola’s first League and Kukui wanted to make it big so all eyes are one Alola

Ash wins, and a few years later he does lose it to Selena/Moon/The Sumo Player Protagonist.

Before that, a year after Ash’s champion a lot of ultra beast just start popping up and starting problems and its not fun. Basically all of Ash’s Chosen One-y-ness is all compounding to beat him up here before leaving him or smth

Oh and Ash has a Day Lycanroc. Hau has Dusk Lycanroc, and Gladion has Midnight.

I know I said I'd do a Thanksgiving marathon, but I decided to do something different that I think you guys will have fun with too.

So! I'm going to be doing an interactive fic all day. I'll put out a starter prompt tomorrow morning, and then as I get asks I will use a random number generator to pick which ask to use next.

Will MC join Mint Eye? Will Saeyoung become a long cat? Will Jumin become a 7331 gamer? Will the demon brothers show up? Who knows! It's up to you guys!

I will do my best to spin your asks into a semi-coherent plot!

All parts will be tagged with "Edgelord Fic Mess" so you can keep track of the different parts.

See you then!

I answered 1 here, but, in short, I don't hate Cartman because I see him as more of a plot device than a real character

18. Has Mr. Garrison improved over the years?

As a character, he’s pretty fantastic early on. He’s so uniquely weird and sincere in the early seasons. I’m thinking about World Wide Recorder Concert, Fourth Grade, Weight Gain 4000 - he’s a deeply insecure man with serious baggage. It’s like the discomfort of seeing your teacher at the grocery store, having to come to terms with his being a regular person, but cranked up to 11 and he’s not remotely regular. He’s buying cough syrup with his assless chapped submissive, and he’s making the Richard Gere gerbil urban legend real right before Butters’ very eyes.

As the series progresses, he becomes more of an adult Cartman - mainly a release valve for ignorance and prejudice (probably starting in earnest when he’s the vehicle by which they espouse their OG problematic trans take). It feels like he’s only Trump because Cartman is too young. Some of the Trump/Garrison gags are quite entertaining though. I love the Bill Hicks/George Carlin-style set where he’s smoking and purposefully doing sexism to lose supporters (reminds me of the Simpsons episode where Krusty is also George Carlin. Canyonero!)

I don't think going from a well-meaning but terrible and sexually inappropriate teacher to South Park's stand-in for Trump is an improvement for him morally if that’s what the question is getting at. I'm gonna say he has not improved - like, as a person - over the years, but probably should not have been allowed to work with children in the first place. It’ll be cool to see how they reintegrate him back into the classroom - I miss teacher Garrison

28. is the south park fandom expired?

I haven't been up in it or observing for long enough periods to be able to say if this lull is normal for the off-season. I stopped reading SP fanfic and watching the show regularly around 2010/2011 and only got back into it during covid. That’s a pretty big absence.

I just started using this account when the first Paramount special dropped and got a lot of notes and followers right away despite my ineptitude w/ social media, so there’s def still interest in the show when they’re putting out content. It’ll be interesting to see if it picks up again and endures once the next season drops in a few weeks.

I personally feel compelled to write stupid long character analyses, and I’m drawing the egg children and writing cringe fics I may or may not post. So it’s not expired in my heart, but I’m not a good metric of general trends. On the other hand, it seems like youths on tik tok, twitter, and insta are doing something called “kinning” the characters. I figure that’s none of my business, but there’s clearly still excitement surrounding the show. South Park is a perpetual edgelord teen show imo - it attracts new crops of edgelord teens and maintains some former edgelord teen fans in its ranks. If it’s still attracting edgy teens, it’s probably doing just fine. What’s been really wild to me is seeing how fast social mores and cultural norms change thru the lens of SP fandom. We’ve gone from fics where Craig casually rapes Tweek but it’s fine cuz Tweek is such a pathetic mess he’s, like, into it? to fics that include long author insert diatribes about proper consent. Both a bit off-putting for different reasons! But it’s interesting af to me at least

What are your least fav troupes in Naruto and Marvel?

is my salt something you’re ready for??? the longer i make this list the more heated i get and the more heated i get the longer i make this list and it just becomes an endless cycle of rage

i’m excited. LET’S GO

Naruto

- Suave Itachi. Like, sex-god Itachi. I’m sorry, in which part of looking at that stupid idiot are you going to think this man has any social competence. And yeah, I get that people have liberty for character interpretation, but the moment you see it happen a lot is when you start to wonder if its a misconception. Like sure I’ll admit to reading fics where he’s like that, but realistically? Mans defected at 13 and his only personality traits are 1) loving his brother and 2) angst. I guarantee you he’s incapable of processing complex emotions. He isn’t suave, he’s a mess with a handsome face, and I’m tired of pretending he’s not.

- People getting sucked into the Naruto-verse. Look, I’m all about self-indulgence and all that stuff and if you’re into it, all power to you. Me? Miss me with that. I’ve never read one, I’ll never read one, that’s that on that.

- Mary Sues and Gary Stus. But like, to the extent of things like being the jinchuuriki for the Ten-Tailed Wolf or that one character having the Byakugan, Sharingan, and the Rinnegan OR a character having a variation of a bloodline that either trumps all these three or is indestructible. At that point

- Main character OCs. Sorry guys, this just isn’t my cup of tea. Much like the sucked into the Naruto-verse trop, I’ve never read one and I’ll never read it. Why make up a whole character to drive the story when you have the entirety of the world at your disposal? Villains don’t count, but made up siblings or friends of canon characters do

- SPEAKING OF OCs I really, really, really won’t read a Naruto fic that has weirdly out of place names??? Make it make sense. Make it make sense. Make it make sense. If your fic is steeped in only Japanese culture and every single one of your characters have Japanese names and there’s suddenly a John in the middle of your fic, what’s the point?? Crossovers don’t count of course, and if you don’t know what you’re doing DON’T DO IT???

- Sakura-bashing. Yeah? You’re going to make her “scream like a banshee”? Tried and tired.

- Also like, Sakura getting angry immediately or doing shit like trying to hurt Naruto every ten seconds??? Because yeah she has a temper but have y’all ever met an actual human being.

- Godlike/Edgelord/Overpowered-to-the-point-that-it’s-not-fun-anymore characters. Ain’t that just boring?

- Just like, complete dialogue exchanges or paragraphs in Japanese when it isn’t the main language. You know that’s not necessary, right? You understand you don’t need to do that, right?

- Completely unredeemable Sasuke. Don’t get me wrong, I do like him as an asshole but not irreversibly. People have depth and dimension. You could probably figure something out with him.

- There’s more. I know there’s more. I can feel it in my bones.

Marvel

- Where Peter goes on a field trip to Avengers Tower. Listenlistenlistenlisten Y’ALL LISTEN TO ME. Yes, I understand that the definition of a trope is due to its overuse or constants, but there’s a difference between ‘overused’ and ‘getting spammed.’ All I do is scroll and it’s just field trip, field trip, field trip, Flash being a dick, the class no way believing that he’s got a real Stark Internship, the Avengers embarrassing Peter, Peter’s clearance level being RIDICULOUSLY high. Half of those MCU!Peter fics are field trip fics that go exactly the same way.

- Completely, ridiculously, ultimately shy-uwu-angel Peter. Like, he acts like a 6 year old when he’s a teenager. Please, y’all. PLEASE.

- “Chaos ensues” in the summary. This is just a nitpicky thing because I’m tired of seeing it.

Both/General Fanfic Tropes

- Excessive swearing. No one uses “fuck” and “shit” as every other word. Real people don’t talk like that. I mean I bet there are, but I guarantee you the majority doesn’t. Please.

- Texting grammar. If you write with ‘plz’ or ‘lol’ and stuff like that in the usual writing of your fic, don’t do that??? Write normally?? Like you’re writing a legit fic??

- Summaries that are a string of “what if” “will they” questions. What if?? Every single fanfic in the world is a what if!! Will they??? YEAH. GENERALLY.

I’m sure there’s a bunch of other things, but I mean everything’s just a matter of opinion, right? These ones though I can’t stand and I won’t read.

Why I Value Tagging Over Censorship

(TW for descriptions of antisemitism, nazism, cocsa (child-on-child sexual assault), necrophilia, and torture-porn. I will mark in bold the sections where this is discussed in more detail.)

@olderthannetfic you asked to be tagged in this post, so here you go! It’s uhhh... Not a fun story! But I thought it was important to share since people tend to claim that those on the more “freedom of expression” side of things have no experience with running into explicit/problematic work as a minor, or have been groomed into believing that it’s okay to do this and that’s... not accurate.

TLDR: When an archive’s policy is that problematic or triggering content must be tagged rather than deleted, it is actually much easier to root out bigoted garbage and/or otherwise objectionable content than on a site where such content is not allowed, but also not warned for. As an example, as a child I was exposed to a truly terrible piece of work deliberately made to trigger and hurt others. Had that work been forced to use proper tags, I would have never seen it, or seen the tags and known to stay away.

The anti/pro-ship debate is exhausting to watch, tbh. I hold opinions on the issue that I’m sure people from both sides would take issue with. But one thing that I’ve seen crop up lately that rubs me the wrong way is the debate over AO3.

The argument I’ve seen from antis boils down to: AO3 hosts problematic content-- namely underage explicit fics, rape/noncon fics, incest and rpf, and has it enshrined in its policy that it’s pretty much impossible to get something deleted off the site for being morally repugnant or gross-- therefore it should not exist or instead moderate its content to remove these things. Doing this would make it safer for minors to use the site.

Funny story. As a kid, about 12 years old, maybe a bit younger, I went on a fanfic website that had a policy against hateful or offensive works, and it’s there that I was exposed to the nastiest piece of work I’ve ever seen in my life (and I’ve read HP Lovecraft /half joking).

This site was not AO3. It was FFN (fanfiction.net for those unaware). The fandom was Phineas and Ferb, a widely beloved kid’s cartoon.

I avoided AO3 because even as a 12 year old I recognized that site had Adult Content(tm) on it, and if I didn’t want to see that I shouldn’t go on there. So I didn’t.

FFN didn’t allow NC17/E-rated stuff on its site, and because of the relatively stricter moderation policy, people tended to skew their ratings up to avoid being reported. This meant my creepypasta loving ass often looked through T and M stories to find that good good horror content. Also, FFN didn’t have a smut filter of any kind, the best I could do was remove any works tagged “romance”. Which I did, because again, horror-loving child.

(TW comes into effect most prominently here)

The fic was called, “The Final Solution for Isabella”. Should I have known better from the title alone? As a Jewish descendant of a Holocaust survivor, yeah probably. Except I didn’t, because I was twelve and naive, and didn’t think that someone would be fucking sick enough to write what they did.

(I thought the title was a reference to the dynamic between Isabella and Phineas where she constantly flirts with him and he ignores her advances/is unaware of them. And that this fic would be her trying some wacky scheme to finally get him to notice. I was, of course, very wrong.)

Short version of the fic: Phineas tortures and rapes Isabella for being Jewish, then is graphically described to set her on fire and then have sex with her charred corpse.

The fic’s taken down now (I checked about 5 years ago, I don’t know how long it was up after or before I saw it), don’t go looking for it. Not that I imagine you’d want to.

It wasn’t the only or first story I’d seen that covered topics like WW2 and the Holocaust either. Again, creepypasta kid, I saw tons of nazi-experiment ghost stories. On the creepypasta wiki. Where I expected them. Where it was often made abundantly clear in advance what kind of horror I’d be dealing with.

(a rare advantage to formulaic, bad writing)

It was the first (and only) fic that genuinely traumatized me though.

I want to be clear here: this wasn’t merely dark fiction, or someone’s weird snuff. This was malicious, created to deliberately upset as many people as possible, especially Jewish fans of PnF. This was beyond even the grooming material antis talk about. There aren’t enough insults in the world to describe what this was.

(Graphic description is over.)

FFN’s moderation policy didn’t catch the most blatantly terrible and hateful thing I’ve ever seen in my life. How many other kids saw that fic, I wonder? How many little Jewish kids were exposed to that kind of vitriol while just trying to have some fun with a show they liked?

Trust me. You want people to have a place where they can put their fucked up fics and have them be well-tagged. I can go on AO3 and filter out adult content of any flavour with a couple clicks. I could have even gone on it without the age filters and just filtered out smut, but still gotten the gratuitous violence my tiny edgelord soul craved!

(Sidebar: there was another fic on FFN in the PnF fandom that my child self absolutely loved: it was about a haunted house where most of the cast ended up dying brutally and graphically. It was messed up, kinda trashy and gorey for gore’s sake, but that’s what I was looking for, and that’s what I found.

(I’m not sure if that one’s better or worse than the circus AU one I saw where Phineas literally ate people’s souls... I liked that one because it’s how I learned about Creature Feature. Probably should have just picked up Cirque du Freak, eh?)

No matter how morally reprehensible I find some of the content on AO3 to be, I will never fault them for having the tagging system they do. I would much rather see a sign that says, “WARNING: Horrible, awful, no good, very bad stuff ahead” and go somewhere else than see a sign that says, “We don’t allow the horrible, awful, no good etc. content here!” only to be smacked in the face by something I’d rather have not seen.

(Disclaimer: I’m aware that someone could just as easily not tag their shit on AO3 and have the same effect, but fun thing about AO3′s policy: if you don’t put any ratings/warnings on your work, they will automatically put the tags “Not Rated” and/or “Creator chose not to use archive warnings”. So even then, the work could be avoided if a user is, in AO3′s terms, “risk-averse”.)

#fandom discourse #shipping discourse #ao3 #archive of our own #in which i out myself as a huge edgelord for internet discourse #fun fact about my lovecraft jab: i found out what he named his cat through the necronomicon i got for my birthday at 14 #and surprise surprise! reading lovecraft didn't make me think racism and xenophobia was okay!#in fact: it's a big part in how I started noticing problematic themes in horror! and then in other genres too!#anyway that's not quite relevant to the main point of this post #which boils down to: if people wanted to expose kids to abuse/incest/underage fics against their will #thoroughly tagging them so content filters can pick up on them on a website known for its robust tagging system #is a pretty bad way to accomplish this #in other words: i have moral issues with some shit people write #but i have ethical issues with trying to censor things instead of just labelling them as what they are and moving on
