Fanfiction Workshops

It's that time of year again - conventions are upon us, and I'm trying to figure out which session(s) I should develop. The following are the topics I've covered in the past (and still do online sessions from time to time).

Drabbles & Short Stories

Character Development

Poetry

Writer’s Roundtable

Choose Your Own Adventure Stories

Battling Writer’s Block

I thought instead of just picking something new on my own, I'd poll the usual suspects. If you're reading this, then I suppose you're one of the usual suspects. Congrats.

I'm tired as helL! but check this out, Just got a new Drawing Tablet for Christmas and after about a week of trying to get it to actually function, I was able to do one silly Test Drawing to see if it works, augh!

Thought it would be fun to redraw a page from one of my favourite MSPFAs of course! this being Dave's introduction in Karkat Goes To A Convention, done from memory so it's probably a little bit diffirent, h.

#homestuck #dave strider #karkat goes to a convention #panel redraw #back to drawing with a tablet since my last one broke in june!!!! yayaaaaaaaaaaaaa

So not only are Jack De Sena and Dante Basco actively aware of Zukka, but they're cool and casual with the idea, too?? I got an autograph signed by Dante and I had asked him who he thought Zuko ended up (he said he had a whole "fanfic scenario" and that he would end up with Jin btw) but he wanted to know what *I* thought and I told him I liked the idea of Zuko and Sokka together and he said he had heard of it and he thought it was cool and that they'd work well together. Later that day at a panel with a bunch of the ATLA voice actors, someone asked what was something that came out of the ATLA resurgence of 2020 and Jack said before he had never known anyone who had shipped Zukka --- using the words "ship" and "Zukka" and Dante smiled while the rest of the cast seemed super casual and familiar with it while everyone in the audience cheered. I'm???

You made a post saying “it has been zero days since our last alex hirsch hates ford so much bullshit” and i know it was mostly hyperbole, but you have some really good takes that I would love to be elaborated on in terms of how ford is written

it really wasn't hyperbolic. over the years he's just really shown a lot of hatred towards this one character.

content warning: discussion of abuse

i want to start with this clip from the commentary which i think of as a microcosm for how the writers and especially alex think about ford.

transcript:

rob renzetti: i mean he [mcgucket] should've basically knocked ford out, and... and destroyed the... you know, tied him up, and, destroyed... and... alex hirsch, speaking over him: yeah he should've beat ford with a wrench and taken this thing apart piece by piece! he's the one who understood how to built [sic] it, but...

... so that seems like a pretty violent course of action. shall we unpack that?

ford is a character who's pretty explicitly written as a victim of abuse, and who now has c-ptsd as a direct result of the abuse he experienced. alex hirsch believes that ford deserved everything bad that happened to him, that it's ford's own fault, and that he also deserved worse things to happen to him. this is why, given every narrative chance, alex hirsch has piled more suffering onto ford's plate. the biggest example of this i can think of is in the journal, when he wrote that fiddleford was actively erasing ford's memory (despite this being a massive timeline contradiction which i still refuse to accept). because god forbid ford even have one remotely healthy relationship with somebody. that would be too good for him. ford was manipulated and lied to by bill, but alex repeatedly compares him to icarus, a teenager whose demise was the result of his own ignorance. this comparison is still so fucking offensive to me. the sun did not lie to icarus, did not guarantee icarus all of the happiness and success and sense of belonging which he had been denied all his life, did not actively shut out the voices of those around him who would try to help him.

alex in general has a very strange relationship with abuse. he seems to get really upset when people read his characters as victims of abuse. the strongest instance of this is actually not with ford, it's with pacifica - especially in the nwmm episode commentary. the episode says "pacifica's parents have conditioned her to respond to a bell" and alex says people got "the wrong idea" about it. like. dude. what the fuck. you wrote abuse. even if you didn't mean to, that's what you wrote. you can't say people got "the wrong idea" just because you didn't think about the subtext of what you were writing. anyway, back to ford: i believe this extends to him as well. alex wanted to write a character who's a foil to stan and who was a selfish unlikable victim of his own arrogance. however that's not what he wrote. he somehow seemingly accidentally wrote a really compelling and relatable awesome autistic guy who had to fight for every good thing he he ever had in his life only for it to be taken from him every single time. but alex can't let go of seeing ford as just "the opposite of stan". when he talks about "how someone as smart as ford could fall for bill's tricks", he refuses to realize he wrote a situation in which a man was being psychologically manipulated and tortured.

it goes back further, too. people repeatedly theorized that filbrick was... not a very good father, to say the least. on top of the very explicit and canon fact that he threw one of his children out on the street (seriously, there is no defense for this), people pointed out that stan would flinch at filbrick, that ford seemed upset by things filbrick said but dared not talk back, that filbrick was mad at stan not for hurting his brother, but for "costing the family potential millions". but alex can't have people seeing ford as sympathetic. ford can't have it bad like stan did. ford had to have everything and he lost it all because he sucks so much. so he wrote the graphic novel story where ford is filbrick's favorite child and filbrick also is not even a bad parent you guys he's just stoic. ignore the whole thing in dreamscaperers where stan perpetuates the abuse that filbrick did to him. ignore the fact that ford was shouting at stan and then completely shut up as soon as filbrick entered the room and did not say another word for the rest of the night. ignore all that because i just made up this story where he cries at a present from stan. filbrick loved his boys for sure you guys!!!

i'm not even touching on how alex repeatedly villainizes traits commonly associated with mental illness and neurodivergence. ford's hypervigilance becomes arrogance. his passion for knowledge means he's a know-it-all. his difficulty socializing and making friends means he's a misanthrope. his lingering resentment for the way he was raised means he hates his brother and is the worst human being to ever have lived. i could go on, go even further into how the finale reaffirms this, but i feel weird talking about this too much.

#help you unclogged the dam and it all came rushing out #it's been years #didn't know i still had all this in me #apologies for the lack of sources. i reference a lot of old interviews and tweets from 2016-2017 #i know insider was one of them but a lot of it was questions he'd be asked at convention panels and off-handed comments from the dvds #seconds before the clip i included alex says ford's great flaw is pride #as though it was his pride that led to the world ending #and not a millenium-old plan by a monster using advanced manipulation tactics supplemented with literal mind control #tales of the wild zeep #1009

Deeply amused by quackity and wilbur's conflicting opinions on /r c!tntduo and i think they should now be applied to how we read their character's dynamic.

c!wilbur is just out here saying the most accidentally homoerotically charged bullshit all the time, not a thought in his head about how it could be interpreted, thinking he is simply just being a cool and suave rival, and then c!quackity is just over here losing his mind because he is yearning and has to keep dealing with increasingly conflicting messages.

#soup speaks #dsmp #quackity #wilbur soot #tntduo #for those lost quackity said on todays dsmp panel that his favorite headcanon was 'the one wilbur shot down last convention' aka /r tntduo #god fucking C!QUACKITY being the one fucking losing his mind over their interactions and not c!wil 'how can i make quackity notice me' bur #is so funny to me

#seeing him get beat up and made fun of these last chapters has been delightful #world's worst larper #I am still determining how i want to draw him #I primarily studied manga panels but I was slso inspired by some old medical textbook advertising I found #It does not show through in the final version but the simple color pallet and less intensely shaded form was from that influence #bnha #mha #all for one #ofa #afo #shigaraki #how do you tag him #demon lord cosplayer and geneva convention violator #art i have done
