hello hi there are some really good posts and ficlets about Sandman characters wearing sweaters and this idea is one of my favorites! Dream Team puns from @softest-punk and also Matthew's delightful dialogue in the fic Hounds by @xx-vergil-xx

I think the three ravens of the Dreaming should get to be friends and hang out?

[Dec 2022, pencil & krita, ID in alt text]

#jessamy the raven #matthew the raven #lucienne the librarian #fanart #the sandman #my art #me reading fic: wow Hob and Dream are so compelling #'this is a deeply serious and work with complicated messages about hope and isolation and grief' #me drawing: haha here's a raven being silly #be the content u want to see I guess! #tags people whose writing I like and then runs away #here there be fandom #matthew and jessamy friendship agenda #we are going to all agree that Lucienne's spectacles are in a pocket somewhere #none of them are supervising Dream rn so I hope he's reading just around the corner or smth #can someone tell me if those detail frames look good bc I am definitely winging it with the resolution for those #how do u dashboard

wow that latest silt verses episode. i've listened to it twice so far and i feel like there's Some essay meta connection i want to make about terminal illness and tragedy and losing people to the mundane even when you have the power of gods at your fingertips and when you've tried so hard and done everything Right..... but i don't know how to fathom it into words. maybe with another listen or two i could post coherently about it but for now just. waow. hey. what the fuck.

#i feel like i can't say anything that isn't already in the episode. the hopelessness the helplessness the fucking awfulness.... #in funnier (RELATIVELY) news i'm just so pleased that like #pretty much the second that rane got the phone call in the beginning i was like. oh. faulkner's going to kill himself #and then as the episode progressed i was like WOW. FAULKNER IS GOING TO KILL HIMSEEEELLLFFFF #take the boy's dumbass decisions and misery to its logical conclusion. thank GOD. (he's fine tho he survived.) #(for anyone who hasnt listened yet and is alarmed by those tags.) #i gotta read the transcript for this one. sometimes the script notes have secrets (telling u what all the sound effects were and what #characters are thinking. and/or what's real) #good show. what the fuck though. good lord #the silt verses #the silt verses spoilers #suicide #for the tags #medical #autoimmune tag #<-only very very VERY tangentially but like. yeag

elaborating on the ask i made about warrior cats fans only liking fake versions of characters in their heads rather than the canon characters i was specifically thinking about when the fandom warps and distorts the canon personalities of (usually female) characters (like when people change hollyleaf’s personality into an awesome badass cool girlboss killer or when people turn snowfur in to a soft kind mom who loves her husband and her son and is nice) when i made the ask but i forget that people wouldnt immediately get that woops sorry

but yeah i was Totally talking about how headcanons and AUs are bad and suck and you should stick 100% to canon yeah totally for sure that was definitely what i was saying /s /lh

interested to hear your perspective on this. what do YOU think makes a fic become popular in the r/s fandom. because there are many many fics and most of them go unnoticed. what do you think makes for a popular fic in general & in the r/s fandom in particular?

hi hello this got a bit long so all under the cut xxx

i’ve been thinking on this question a bit and i feel like this is kind of a tricky question to ask because it IS mainly down to chance !! but i want to make a distinction between viral fics and just generally popular ones because the first is very much down to random chance and a few other factors — these fics tend to be plot heavy + long + high drama and angst. they read more like novels i think? but most fanfiction isn’t like that (i mean i don’t personally write anything like that!!). for me meaningful engagement with my fic didn’t necessarily mean i had accrued heaps of hits but occurred rather when i had a tumblr where i was making friends + posting about my fic and posting snippets etc. and interacting with people in the comments of my fic and on tumblr. i’ve pretty slowly just gained a reader base from that and over time the fics have been read and ppl come back to read my other ones ?? i guess!!

i think it also helps to have someone read over your work just to check for grammar and spelling + plot holes etc. because those things can have people clicking off a fic for sure. also tagging thoroughly and accurately on ao3 is really helpful so people can actually find your fic. in my experience the best thing you can do is write a story you really love + enjoy writing and have fun with because that’s when you write your best and people will see that in the story and writing…. and there’s like hundreds of very similar fics (i’m thinking lie low at lupin’s etc etc) so just… write whatever don’t worry about being original or whatever.

idk i’m curious what other people have to say about this because there’s a trend that i haven’t seen as much in other fandoms for fics to become ‘viral’ through twitter and tik tok (i mean atyd is like the most read fic on ao3 right?? or one of them??) and i think it’s really skewed people’s perception of what is typical engagement with fic (which tends to be small and perhaps builds over time) and what the purpose of posting is all about. writing should be about your own enjoyment and hopefully people get some out of it too. obviously it’s hard Not to want people to read and like and comment on your work but posting with that as the main hope in mind is just gonna be pretty miserable i think!!!!

#sorry this is a bit all over i think in terms of things that are written about people love angst in this fandom and hurt/comfort #popular character headcanons change over time just vibe with what u want i think #also plenty of fics go unnoticed because there are just. a fuckload of fics these days. and there’s no algorithm and people are just #getting their recs from other people on social media rather than having a scroll #through the ship on ao3 or whatever #i think don’t underestimate having like three people ur friends with read and comment something lovely about ur fic #compared to hundreds of thousands of reads like that’s really cool to have lots of ppl read it #but when i have my mutuals comment on a fic that’s like The Best thing #or just like one message where someone goes wow that story really moved me or whatever #obviously i appreciate every way people engage but yeah!!!! #also going back to the viral thing i think readers now want fics to be like books/novels with the same beats to whatevr degree as those #stories and like hardly anyone is writing that kind of story !! so when something like that is written i think it gets very popular #but i think ppl should actually just enjoy all aspects of fic or whatever like those 10k one shots r the back bone of this society fr.. we #simply cannot forget that…… #answered

the worst but also the best part about learning languages is when you reach the point where you are constantly aware that the people you talk to and the media you consume are all making cultural references that you simply do not get so all of a sudden you’re like goddamn it i need to read every piece of classic italian literature ever now

#one of the profs was telling me how her translation class decided that leopardi was 'emo' and i was like wow this would be so funny if i #knew literally anything about giacomo leopardi besides the fact that he supposedly ate a kilo and a half of confetti before dying #(thank you that one tumblr post) #but also the part of my brain that's like 'you need to consume those works In Italian' makes this difficult because i simply cannot do that #yet #arugujhakshjdhajahjfasjhfewkrjht #she speaks.l #this happened w spanish too but like. As i was taking a spanish literature class? so i already started to read stuff that's regularly #references & then just kind of continued to read stuff naturally #except sometimes i read literature from a specific country and i'm like sooooo i need to read all of your canonical writers now #reading mariana enriquez like oh so i need to read piglia reading piglia like oh so i need to read borges and arlt reading arlt like oh so #i need to read macedonio fernández #etc etc etc etc #well really reading borges --> fernández. whatever #aaaaaaaa. girls when the wealth of knowledge and literature within the world is overwhelming and wonderful but they will never get to know #it all :( #also this is like. the fact that there's so much just within spanish language literature. can u imagine the depth of also arabic literature #etc etc #i mean like i am sure you can. that was weird phrasing. #BECAUSE ALSO THEN IT'S LIKE. there is so much that is wonderful outside of the 'canon' of well known writers BUT I CAN'T READ IT ALL SO....

[iknowwhereyousleepatnight]

yeah yeah times new roman is the standard or whatever but have you ever considered that serif fonts suck and should be illegal wherever i am forever with no exceptions?

#sans all the way babeyyyyy #not sans undertale #sans serif #if i'm posting a lot of nonsense today it's bc i accidentally left my earbuds and therefore my concentration at home #so i'm just going to be v distractable today #bc music is the only thing keeping me on-task i have no idea how i did things w/o it for years #i cannot even draw w/o music :( #i will attempt to write this case summary but i have to read 20 pages in a SERIF FONT and then make my writing serif too #biggest betrayal to my essays is making them times new roman #at least i have one prof with common sense. she only accepts things in her specific formatting w calibri #and me and calibri can get along #we can be besties even #we can hold hands and gently kiss each other on the lips #we can get married and adopt many children including comic sans #he would be bullied relentlessly but we would only find him slightly ironic so it's okay #y'know i remembered today that one can take medication to solve their problems instead of just dealing w them #was reading about MDD for class and they were like these kinds of drugs can make you less depressed #and i was like. wow. you can do that? i thought you had to suffer through it?? #thought that was just one of those things(tm) that we all went through and if you made it out alive then good for u #but apparently you can take meds and then stop it from happening altogether?? #i knew this somewhere in my brain i think but one of my siblings got anti-depressants and they made them significantly worse #so ig i forgor that they could work #but i could never take them because i'm much more interesting as-is #do you think someone completely stable would have so much fun messing with people?? #i will be a mad scientist. i was born to be one #when i get a doctorate it's over for all you weaboo shits

finally gotten around to completing my csm pt1 reread and im also up to date on p2 and im about to say something i could be hung on the cross flayed and quartered for but. Jjk is literally a better manga

#like. jjk seems basic and just kind of okay when u first read it then get more intricate and cool and impressive the more u think about it. #meanwhile rereading csm and reading fujimoto’s other stuff makes cms LESS impressive bc you start realizing fujimoto doesnt really have #the amazing understanding of tje human soul he seems like he does at first but rather has just understood a few thing about a few sorts of #people and has gotten good at showing those in unconventional ways. which is a skill in itself ig #but like under all the special effects and wow factor and shock and surprise at how weird and bombastic csm is #there really isnt as much substance there as it seems at first. and he reuses the same gimmicky ideas over n over. and he can only draw l #like 3 faces. #plus the lore/worldbuilding is not nearly as inherently logical OR well explored as in jjk #like tue power system in jjk genuinely feels like physics from another universe that u can speculate and draw legitimate conclusions about #based on the info ur given. meanwhile csm’s worldbuilding works on a ‘whatever fujimoto thought was coolest and/or more shocking at #the time’. which isn’t exactly a flaw ig but makes me way more into jjk bc i love figuring that kind of stuff out #anyway #jjk #csm #personal

[carcinized]

okay also while im on this topic (american centric rant incoming sorry. i can’t speak for other countries but this is what it’s like here)

a) adults rewarding kids for like being on the football team in high school is dumb as fuck and causes 50% of my problems at school. we all know this thougu like it’s stupid as fuck. but also

b) adults rewarding kids for taking AP classes and doing a million extracurricular things hoping for scholarships causes the other 50%. Normalize telling kids “hey sometimes colleges won’t even take your AP credits, half the class focuses on passing a test which you might not and also have to pay money to take, also this class might destroy your livelihood.” also normalize telling kids hey man it’s literally fine if you don’t wanna go straight to a four year college? like there’s community/junior college which in some states is FREE FOR TWO YEARS. and if it’s not free is INFINITELY CHEAPER. and then you can usually get GUARANTEED SCHOLARSHIPS into really good schools to do your major. & you dont even need to bust your ass getting into college and destroy your mental health so you go into college hella depressed. also this means you have more time to work in your teenage years while you don’t have to pay the bills and save money for things like yknow. groceries and down payments on cars and apartments. and it’s not a failure to do that??? like im saving at least 20k dollars doing that plus my own mental health. Like um if you really wanna go ahead but im pretty happy with the money and emotional distress im saving i feel pretty fucking smart for doing that 💀 also stop being assholes to kids who cant afford 4 year college realistically (even though there’s “scholarships.” ever talked to anyone fucking ever?? those are so competetive it’s SO UNREALISTIC to bank on those im sorry to say.)

also there’s nothing wrong w trade school? Or literally anything else? take a gap year and live at home? you’re slaying. take a gap whatever years and live at home?? UR SO FUCKING COOL. stop acting like college is the only path for people my fucking GODDDD

#like im a smart guy or whatever. All my teachers assume i want to go straight to 4 year college bc like idk. I want to launch shit into spac #i read quantum physics books for fun. i go above and beyond on projects sometimes (bc it’s the only way i can get myself to do them oops) #& most of the ppl i talk to are like. smart kids bc idk i take some honors classes n stuff. those are just the ppl i fell in with #but i REFUSE to take AP classes & everyone thinks im crazy for it #like sorry for not wanting to waste my time on a test that might not even translate credits to college #im just taking college classes at the junior college rn so i don’t have to do it in college??? #GUESS WHOS GETTING A BETTER EDUCATION!!!!!ME!!!!!!!! #it’s just SO fucking stupid. and i want to share this here. You’re welcome #ALSO IN MY HONORS CHEM CLASS ITS ALL SNOOTY UNDERCLASSMEN #& it’s like girlie u are Not cool bc you stayed up until 3am doing homework last night. that’s not as hashtag relatable as you think #some of us value our mental and physical health more than an unlikely college scholarship #they’re so like. 😐 wow you genuinely think im dumb for being older than u & in this class. SORRY I DIDNT TAKE HONORS CHEM & PHYSICS AT OJCE #SOPHOMORE YEAR??????? I WANTED TO BE ABLE TO TAKE CHOIR????? AND HAD 2 MORE YEARS TO TAKE HONORS CHEM????? #like girlie i am Not bad at science. you’re not better at it than me bc you’re taking a stupid class younger #tobin talks #also U literally hate chemistry you’re JUST doing it bc it’s the most you can possibly do #like HOW do you think that’s gonna be good for you. it’s RIDICULOUS #sorry this one girl in my class pissed me off a Lot i have. THOUGUTS

[sunnetrolls]
