It's always

"When will fanfic writers update their stories?"

And never

"Does this fanfic writer have adequate enrichment to engage in writing behaviours?"

Fanfiction writers (Scriptor fictus) are intelligent animals who need plenty of enrichment as well as encouragement! If they're stuck in poor conditions (e.g. have studies, work, have to actually write to have something written) then they require the proper enrichment to engage in more healthy behaviours, like writing. Remember, due to poor breeding and socialisation, over half of all fanfic writers suffer from low self confidence and executive dysfunction so take care of them!

Give your fanfic writers proper care. Fanfiction writers are a life long commitment.

TESSA IS FUCKING DEAD???

IM DEVESTATED. I HAD CONFLICTING FEELS TOWARDS TESSA IN EP 6, AND I THOUGHT SHE WAS GONNA BE POSSESSED…

NOT POSSESSED AND PROBABLY DEAD.

Cyn is LITTERALLY living in her SKIN.

HER PUPILS ARE X’ED OUT. HER HEAD CAME OFF, SNAP BACK ON, AND DID A FULL 360.

THAT IS NOT ALIVE.

The worst part?

It’s Episode 5 Tessa. Little Tessa.

The happy, loving one.

Episode 6 and 7 Tessa isn’t real Tessa. It’s Cyn in her skin.

And if Tessa is ALIVE…

THAT IS HORRIFYING.

IMAGINE YOU WATCHED A GALA GET SLAUGHTERED IN YOU VERY EYES AND YOUR BODY IS CONTORTED EVERY WHICH WAY.

if it turns out Tessa is alive and being controlled I will actually throw up and curl into a ball

HER ORGANS JS FELL OUT BRO.

BLOD AND GUTS AND ALL.

IM FUCKING GOING TI RIP OUT MY HEART

#ao3 author #ao3 writer #murder drones #tessa #tessa james elliot #murder drones ep 7 #murder drones tessa #are you kidding me #im sobbing #im actually going insane #im gonna throw up #she was my favorite #she might have been my kin #i’m gonna kill someone #and that might be me #writers on tumblr #please #come back

I've seen some people mention this briefly but can I just say I hate the trend of giving Mabel a new love interest every season?? Its so fucking bland and especially worse knowing that they've cycled through two PERFECT developable love interests for her (Oscar and Theo). It just...reeks of some kind of sexualization for lack of a better word I suppose. Its an easy way to get people talking, an easy person for the audience to suspect, etc. I just HATE it. Oscar was there to be a boy toy, Alice was there for woke points, Tobert is there for the sake of giving Mabel someone to kiss. Its OLD and LAZY.

#Skai screams #I stg if Mabel ends up marrying him irrationally bc she's paranoid about being 30 and not having stability in her life 🤢#That doesn't feel like a Mabel choice but idk what if she has nowhere to move once she's technically evicted from the Arconia #What if something pushes Charles and Oliver away from her again #I don't trust the writers that much #Mabel Mora #Im so pissy abt this guys #Why do I also have a feeling Mabel could be undercover as a bride and Tobert as her fake groom for the sake of the investigation #And it becomes a flirty thing #Ew ew ew ew #I hate Tobert lmao hes so bland #Tobert omitb #Idk tf his last name is #omitb #Only murders in the building season three #Omitb season three #Only murders in the building #Omitb spoilers #Only murders in the building spoilers

Farewell, My Friend💔😭

(PSA: Possible spoiler warnings for The Murder of Me by the Zielo Cave. Only a couple panels, but still...)

So, on Monday night, I was at work, and I checked my phone, mostly out of habit. (I don't recommend doing this, btw, it's a good way to get you written up or worse.) And I saw that I had a YouTube notification on my lock screen. So I open my phone and pull down my drop bar to have a look. And literally saw the absolute worst news.

TMOM is over from The Zielo Cave

Now for those of you that don't know: The Murder of Me, AKA TMOM, is a Sonic the Hedgehog fan comic that first debuted I think 15 or so years ago, give or take, and as much as I would love to claim that I've been a fan since the beginning, I only discovered TMOM about a year or so ago. (I have the worst luck when it comes to finding things; I'm always late to the party 🥺)

When I discovered TMOM I was in a terrible rut. I hadn't posted anything in YEARS, and the writing I had done I kept locked away in notebooks, never to see the light of day. I had no inspiration, no motivation to tell stories. It was a horrible place to be. (-10000/10 recommendation.) Then I was scrolling through Pinterest one day, and I saw a panel of this random comic.

You could probably imagine my reaction. It's so random. Then more cropped up:

My thoughts went HAYWIRE. "Why is Sonic fighting his mother? Why's he dressed like that? WHY IS HE DROWNING?? WHY ARE KNUX AND TAILS LETTING HIM DROWN??? WHAT IS EVEN HAPPENING???" So I went hunting, and came across The Murder of Me by Gigi-D on DeviantArt.

I was HOOKED. The plot was so well thought out, the characterization was incredibly done, and as you can see, the art itself was BEAUTIFUL. I couldn't get enough. I flat out ignored life and read through 14 issues in one sitting. It took me all day but it was so worth it. AND THEN: I discovered the dubs on YouTube, and found that Gigi-D had decided to put together a creative team to produce the issues of The Murder of Me as episodic dubs, and I fell head over heels. The cast and editing was absolutely phenomenal, and The Murder of Me had my heart, hook, line, and sinker. What was even better was that they turned Issue 15 into an animatic episode.

Episode 15 Part 1: Purpose released on October 30th, 2022, and since then I have been anxiously awaiting the next episode by rewatching the series and all the prequels and bonus episodes I could get my mouse on. I even forced my best friend one night to binge the entire series with me, and she's not nearly as much of a Sonic fan as I am!

TMOM was more than a great watch or story for me. It was inspiration. I had an itch in my fingers that grew from writing a TMOM fanfiction that would stay hidden away into it's own complex project who's rough draft is now in production. (And could very well be released this summer if all goes well.) It was life breathed into my creativity. It was hope. For the first time in a very long time, I wanted to write. To tell a story like Gigi-D and the Zielo Cave.

And then that notification came. It was like a punch in the stomach. I was terrified and without watching it, I reacted and sent it to my best friend, wailing that once again, a story that I loved was being abandoned. That the writers were giving up. I was indignant. Screw that, I was angry and hurt.

Then I watched the video. I listened to Gigi's story, and immediately felt shamed by my own reaction. The Zielo Cave had been saying that Part Two was taking a while because of personal situations, and when Gigi revealed what had happened, that her inspiration was gone and couldn't bring herself to even sketch these characters that she loved so dearly...my heart shattered for her. While I might not really know or understand the pain of her personal situation, I do know what it is to completely lose the passion for your story. For the characters you still love, but can't bring yourself to engage with.

And while my heart of hearts aches, I know Gigi is doing the right thing. No one wants a story that it's writer is dragging their heels to share, can't bring themselves to write. God knows I've tried that, and trust me, it only hurts everyone. The writer, the fans, and the story itself. By ending TMOM here, she's protecting TMOM and its fans, and even though my heart breaks for TMOM's fate and (mostly) for her, I couldn't be more proud of her. The courage and strength it takes to walk away from such a huge part of your life in search of something more, something better?

Not only that, but honor the work and effort her team has given for Part Two and post it anyway, even though it's unfinished? To offer a written conclusion for the series for the fans that want to know what happens? I've never heard of any creator doing that, ever. All that I have seen would NEVER post any unfinished content, or unveil the unwritten plot and ending. And while I'm devastated for what that means, that TMOM is well and truly concluded and Gigi will probably NEVER return, as a fan of this series, I'm so grateful that what happens to these characters won't remain a mystery.

And to repeat what I said in the comment section of the announcement video: I pray a future that is bright and beautiful for you, and you discover what an amazing person you on this journey of healing. You're going to be magnificent because you are already an incredible person, Gigi. I can't express how important TMOM has been for me, how inspiring the story has been when I was down and unable to pursue my own creativity in my writing, and I just want to thank you for the years of dedication, passion, and love you and your team have given us through The Murder of Me. I bless all the paths you walk from this day forward, and all my love and support for you goes with you on your journeys for all the rest of your days.

The Murder of Me is over. I will always be a TMOM fan, and I will always love Gigi-D and the Zielo Cave for giving me inspiration, passion, and hope for my writing again. It's because of TMOM that The Three Sovereigns even made it to development and is now currently being written with the hope of release this summer, and The Three Sovereigns will always be a tribute to The Murder of Me and the hope this story has given me.

Thank you so much, Gigi-D, the Zielo Cave, and The Murder of Me, and fare thee well, my friend.

also big fan of demiromantic charles in a charthur setting bc i think charles deserves to have a romance panic,,,,, gives charles that moment when you've been alone all your life and never rly allowed/found yourself or could get close to someone so when you do and you eventually start having some unfamiliar Feelings and proceed to freak out a little as a treat

#charthur #rye rambles #this one is 100% me projecting but also my experiences make for good plot so its also a wip for a fic im writing fsdlksd #godspeed gay cowboys are breaking me out of my writer block fr #me when i get a lil silly with things (writing so many self indulgent things ab gay cowboys)#(such as murder anxiety and what i've been dubbing as charmfort (charles comfort))

The political climate right now as a queer writer with a deep appreciation for the arts and especially literature is fucking abysmal. Writer friends are yelled at to delete queerness or violence from their stories. And you still think this is just about someone getting in a hissy fit over Blorbo 1 being too young for Blorbo 2 and someone writing about them fuckin.

#anti anti #anti censorship #queer writers #writerblr #writers on tumblr #yell at politicians and jfc yell at corporations that work with publishing #us politics #this is like someone saying closet antisemites uncloseting themselves in wake of the atrocities going on in gaza isnt an issue bc its online #well online is a place too #AND this reflects on real life. random jewish diaspora who have no personal stake in whats happening in israel and palestine #have been getting harassed and threatened and worse for the sin of being a jew #just because its 'online' does not mean its not also a problem irl-- even bigger irl #maybe you're the one that's so chronically online if you think things that happen online stay there forever #creators have been doxxed online. it's not inconsequential. its not funny. im not laughing.#hate the high horse stance of 'its not on my front yard so therefore doesnt exist and youre stupid for caring'#conservatives think like this too #well *I* dont personally know any queer people so its alright if they get murdered as long as my gas prices might go down #fuck you i got mine kind of ideology #well fuck you too

HAPPY 10TH CHAPTER!

the hunger games au! anakins confidence! obi-wan being the mentor! the fact that they’re together BEFORE anakin even gets picked!

poor robin tho lol :( but you know the games go on for like 12 hours longer while Anakin waits for someone else to kill her. In theory it’s because of his ruse with the capital, but it’s definitely just for obi-wan. So really, obi-wan did help her live longer than she would have otherwise, from a certain point of view.

also obi-wan definitely finds it romantic that anakin let someone else kill her & rewards him for it after the games ;)

(also for a sec i thought maybe the other girl would be padme & maybe anakin used to like her and is briefly sad & padme is a master manipulator and makes obi-feel like shit for choosing to let her die (making anakin hate her lol) and also making obi-wan feel super insecure about the ruse and also maybe really petty and bitchy? and she’s also really popular in the capital and canon padme isn’t a terrible fighter either)(maybe padme pretends to be (or is) pregnant and she pretends their anakins and obi-wan is SO insecure and/or seeing red)

lmao sorry for the massive ask the hunger games awaken something terrible in me

oo i think maybe a braver writer would probably have made anakin's other tribute padmé, and i guess there's still time for that, but i didn't want to for a couple of reasons, hence using a made up oc instead

i think the tug of guilt obi-wan would feel over having a preferred victor (anakin) and giving them both trainings but then really carefully only campaigning for sponsors to take a look at anakin, not the other tribute.....because anakin needs funds for a blanket, anakin needs food, obi-wan is watching anakin suffer and any second he may have to watch him die.... he feels guilty about the other tribute but he cannot watch anakin die....like that's enough guilt for obi-wan, i don't think specifically padmé could make him feel worse

also i think another reason i didn't choose padmé was because i didn't want anyone to think anakin used to like her lol this anakin is not normal this anakin is a creep this anakin was like. fourteen, saw obi-wan being all pathetic and sad and decided if obi-wan wasn't going to take advantage of him anakin was going to take advantage of obi-wan, worm his way into his confidences and affections and then never ever leave like this is not a boy who had a crush on any sort of padmé amidala he would not be sad he is not capable of being sad about the other tribute this is not a normal dude and tbh its easier to just. not have her in the story than to push back against that all the time

or i think i'd have her as part of the capitol who works with obi-wan to overturn palpatine once the rebellion is going on, but i think she would find anakin off-putting because he's 100% creep but not a creep who is in love with her and it just actually makes her uncomfortable to be in a room with him. asks obi-wan to blink twice if he needs rescuing. obi-wan blinks a lot of times because he's confused as to how anyone could ever need saving from anakin

anakin wouldn't hurt a fly

#asks #obikin #hunger games au #padme: wait sorry are you saying that you cant understand how anyone could find the guy who murdered 20 people in 2 days offputting #obi-wan: that wasn't his choice :( i asked him to #padme: im gonna stop you right there because this revolution isgoing to be really hard to carry out #if i don't feel comfortable in a room with you too #also just spare padme from that in general lol #i also thought about having ahsoka be the other tribute #but i didnt think people were ready for that #like there wouldnt be a happy ending where anakin grows to care for her and then they both get out of the arena #it would have been 'make padme pregnant in couples counseling au' all over again #and that was exhausting for me as the writer i cannot lie

I wonder, are we going to see the Fall next season?

Like, Aziraphale becomes Supreme Archangel. He got access to anything of top authority that he could never gain through before. Some case scenario involving the Second Coming, and somehow it leads to him finding a old file — Crowley’s before the Fall.

He goes through it, a way to comfort himself in longing for the demon but at the same time feels terrible on how things ended between them. How the last time he saw him was when departing to the elevator…

Then he sees it.

The trial (if there was one).

Crowley, confused and worried.

The sentencing.

The fear, the overwhelming behavior that led to him being dragged out of the room.

And some twisted way, it continues to show Crowley, now begging for God for forgiveness.

(Little plot twist moment)

.

“You are forgiven.”

Aziraphale’s corporate’s blood runs cold, eyes tearing up at the sight of relief in Crowley’s face.

A quick one.

Wiped clean with a scream as his body was thrown as unwanted garbage, heading down an endless fall to the boiling sulphur bin below. Then the file ends, and Aziraphale…

He stands there, the sight engraved in his mind. The one he loves. The one that was the whole reason he chose to come back… Eyes blurred his vision, his tears continuing to stream in stunned silence. His knees gave out, falling at the white ground. His mouth agape, letting bits of breath he hardly notice escape in tiny gasps. Then to huffs. Then to audio inhales and exhales. Hands gripping at his head, wanting to claw through the skull, taking out everything he thought on what was “good” about Heaven. And changing it all with what Crowley expressed. Explained. Flat out spoke on true facts.

Crumbling, his body curled over that his forehead rested at the ground, cold as the truth now roaming in his mind. And just when he thought he could breathe — he doesn’t let out a clear exhale.

Only a clear scream that echos the entire room, shattering through his ears – body – existence alone.

I’m sorry. I’m a writer. I couldn’t help myself! I was in the zone! 😭

#good omens #good omens 2 #i may have gone just a smidge too far… while at the same time want it to be this painful #im a writer. we murder without touching a body just your emotions #crowley #aziraphale #ineffable husbands #good omens 3 #was in the zone for this one #amazon prime #neil gaiman

You know, one of the most interesting thing about BG3 to me is that all the different choices and RP moments you can make mean that it's very easy to have a multitude of playthroughs that don't neatly fall into the boxes of "good" or "evil" runs.

The other interesting thing is that whenever Larian talks about their game, it feels like this was a complete accident.

#bg3 #the “true good” path has more content than any other path #because Larian did not expect a worldstate where the tieflings were dead for any other reason then because the player murdered them #and they wanted to have consequences for players doing the “evil path”#which is also just. maybe the consequence should be anything besides having less content to playthrough #but they did THAT bc they assumed people would mostly be doing evil playthroughs for their 2nd or 3rd run when they'd be tired of sidequest #Larian writes Ascended Astarion's romance a very specific way because the writer assumed people who romanced him on that path #only cared about the sex and power #so your tav/durge gets pigeonholed into a very specific personality #and these are only the things I know for sure bc they've been outright stated in interviews or tweets from writers #i know they can't account for every playstyle #but I never felt this way playing a bioware game #the whole 'oh I clearly am not meant to rp or play this way' feeling #im caught between being glad to have more rp choices but wondering if its worth it when i get punished for taking them

idk people might attack me for this but i need to get my thoughts out somehow

In 2019, i was 7 years old and happy. Its 2024, ive gotten out of elementary and im starting to lose hope in ever having a future in the world that im working so hard to do.

Multiple Wars are happening, a global pandemic came and went and took my normal childhood, Palistine might be gone before i reach age 15, Global warming is destroying the earth, and Even if i did create a life in the US, I have a chamce of working until i die.

My parents are immigrants, they havent gotten their citizen ship yet so they cant vote, and my dad is pro isreal, my mom is in the “what can we do“ mindset and I dont want to just sit arpund while kids are dying and being bombed and tortured.

All i want is for all wars to stop, FREE PALISTINE, and actually have a chance at living without needing massive amounts of money to paybills or buy a home or buy food.

Going through middleschool is hard enough, but at this point I wonder if any of it will matter.

sorry about this again, i needed to put this somewhere

#vent #vent post #personal #im really sorry #free palestine #free gaza #middle school #elementary school #thoughts #murder drones #art #ao3 author #ao3 writer

and the way people of color were written in this show 😬😬😬

#amateotw #a murder at the end of the world #yall can not keep writing like this #it feels like they put half this cast in so that the white characters/audience/and writers had people to racially profile #then they tried to play that off as part of the mystery #wasted so many talented actors and what could have been interesting characters had they been given a chance #obviously yall should be including characters of color even when the show isnt centered on their stories #but they were completly removed from the plot unless they needed to share their cuture or help white characters #it was handled badly #and i havent seen anyone else talking about it here #Edit: Zal is Iranian so Zibas portrayal im inclined to be less critical of but I still wish she had been more involved in the story #they all deserved more
