I want to read your new Shinsou fic but I cannot believe you made a disabled reader.. No one can relate to that!!! Your probably only getting like 5 notes for that shit
im gonna... im gonna take a moment and be like. grown up with you and try to give u some perspective bcos uh
some people read reader fanfics they cant always relate to.. like even if it isnt a perfect self insert experience, they still read it and enjoy it!!! they can still immerse themselves and ignore the parts that dont fit them exactly. every day, someones always doing that
do you know how i know? bcos as a nonbinary disabled poc i CONSTANTLY read fem!reader fics with able bodied readers who blush and have light skin or descriptions that tells that with like. NO PROBLEM? and i STILL ENJOY THEM? ISNT THAT BUCK WILD!!!!
i am happy that theres still PARTS i can enjoy and relate to!! and mostly i still enjoy them bcos even if the reader isnt ME, the writer's writing style or humor or metaphors or characterization is what gets me excited
i am not and will not be forcing any abled body users on this platform to read my fic bcos they have AN OCEAN of fics available to them if they just scroll one post further. theres endless fics for them and i dont mean to be rude but i feel like you are very lucky, if this is ur reaction to someone publishing a fic that doesnt cater to your looks or life specifically.. like jesus christ ur audacity skdndn
i am HAPPY for the people who's got so many options that they can ignore my fic, no sarcasm, i literally am. i am also jealous of their privilige but thats more when im tired or bitter or exhausted and it is not my go-to emotions about them! if you're lucky enough to be have a abled body, i get that youre more likely to skip my fic and choose something that caters more correctly to you - whether or not my writing style is good or to your tastes
but by being the minority.. and experiencing this daily - all i hope is that by writing this fic and posting it online, some people (even like abled bodied ppl etc) will reblog and spread the word of my fic anyway, to their silent disabled followers - like me. ive followed most of the disabled writers i can find within my fandoms and sometimes. sometimes someone reblogs or posts a fic with a disabled reader - whether or not the person who reblogged it is disabled - and i get to read a relatable reader insert and let me tell u: its a drop in the ocean, not the ocean itself. thats ur part. but the immense joy i feel upon stumbling over one and seeing myself in them, like you probably do when you find one you like!!! THATS what i wanna give people!!! that FEELING you also get when you find the perfect reader fanfic!!
so honestly? i sincerely do not mind YOU not reading it and thats saying it politely <3 my writing style is amazing, my disabled reader content is amazing and if you're disregarding a 20+ THOUSAND WORDS work of fucking art, just bcos 'the reader isnt completely like u' well thats ur LOSS
