Hey guys I have a favour to ask
Please do not reblog Jojos post about the patreon with complaints and disappointment.
Everything everyone is saying is valid. Your fears and concerns- the disappointment because you can't afford it- is so important
Your thoughts are important and so are you
It is very unfair to Jojo, however, to see those reblogs- with half support and half negativity.
Everyone is worried about the fandom- what it means that we might not be able to see some content- that we won't know how to handle some people knowing things before others can
But I would ask that you express those concerns on your own blogs, perhaps not even under the Lu tags.
I know your intentions are good. There is no denying that we all care. But these statements are inherently negative no matter how well meant.
No problems will go away by ignoring it- by just shutting up about it.
What I fear right now is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Most concerns are about the fandom- about there being division, a sense of "elitism".
But if we're worried about division, then we will only make it happen by arguing about it.
We should turn to unity. We can work to make this positive.
Obviously no one will share what is on the patreon before it is public. But we can still share in the wonderful excitement and discussions following updates! We should agree to have just as much joy in what we love.
We should agree for there to be no bragging- only excitement when everyone can see it, that we can share our thoughts just as well as we always could.
This is a huge step for Jojo. In motivation and getting rewarded for years of hard work. In helping her to continue what takes so much time.
We've all read big project fanfictions where the author had to stop. I find this extremely reassuring as to an underlying fear I know we've all had.
Linkeduniverse is wonderful and loved. Now we have more certainty that Jojo means to see this through- to carry out what was never intended to be a story starting out.
I get it. I am so scared too. I'm scared for the fandom and I'm scared for me. There is no way I can afford it. I may not ever be able to.
I'm scared to even make this post- to say my opinion and ask something of others
This is amazing and wonderful. I think everyone agrees that we are so proud of Jojo for taking such a big step for herself.
Reblogging her post with disappointment and rants in the tags- do not show her it's not worth it- that she will only be met with disapproval.
Let's be kind- and make this positive.
This is a good thing. Every worry and concern is valid, it shows how much we care. Let's keep this something we love.
I love you and you are amazing.

i stand by that a better, more sensible, and more intriguing plot for TSATS would have been, instead of retconning literally everything:
Bob is dead (because he was very explicitly absorbed/killed by Tartarus Himself in House of Hades, alongside Damasen), and nobody is going into Tartarus to save him. He made his sacrifice and is gone. However. Remember how the Titans, including Bob, were just kind of kicking around for several years? Particularly. On a cruise ship full of mortals. And Bob happened to be kicking around in general for an extra year versus all the other Titans. And he mythologically sometimes has a mortal demigod son who partook in the Calydonian Boar Hunt (Dryas of Calydon). Yeah.
So turns out, Bob/Iapetus leaves behind a demigod (demititan?) child. And because Nico was pretty much his only friend, he named Nico his child's godfather. And while he's not being left in charge of the child, as a son of Hades and godfather to this kid, Nico is duty-bound to fulfill Bob's last will and go find this like 2 year old to make sure they're safe. So Nico has to undertake this very unusual quest (that raises many questions, such as "demititans are a thing?" and "DOES THIS MEAN THERE'S POTENTIALLY MORE-?!" and "SHOULD WE BE CONCERNED ABOUT THIS?") and is kind of freaking out because. He's the son of Hades! He's notoriously bad with living things, and animals, and definitely small children! Even if he does find this kid and assure they're safe, he is the last person who should be undergoing any kind of quest involving even potentially having to babysit. Fortunately, his boyfriend is the human embodiment of sunshine and calmness and good vibes, and also once helped a nymph give birth, so he feels Marginally More Confident in theoretical demititan babysitting and offers to come along on this Epic Journey of Figuring Out What In Hades' Name Is Up With This Demititan Baby Business.
Proceed with wholesome epic shenanigans quest of Nico and Will scurrying around trying to locate this random OP baby while Nico has an existential crisis about the nature of his powers because he doesn't want to let Bob down! Both for Hades Kid Honor Reasons and because Bob was his friend! But what if he's destined to fail this quest just because of who he is? Because he's simply not built for hanging out with the living/mortals? And Will reassuring him that He Will Probably Not Traumatize The Weird OP Titan Baby And It'll Be Fine, and simultaneously getting a peek into the weird other life Nico leads hanging out with immortals much more than the average demigod, which Nico considers his norm. Bonus shenanigans of both of them getting caught off-guard and culture shocked from where each other's respective worlds (Nico's mostly-immortal versus Will's mostly-mortal) cross over and learning to navigate those for each other - Nico finally starting to make some mortal connections and get glimpses at modern mortal American life, and Will trying not to get his brain literally incinerated while Nico's happily casually catching up with some of his old friends who happen to be literal gods.

personally, i think scars and freckles and beauty marks are amazing and secsy, but Asmo wants that perfect doll-like look that makes him look borderline unreal
