Notes About Rant Essays
I try to choose my topics based on what problems I notice and what I have a deep understanding of or affects me directly. If I myself don’t experience it I speak based on the communities I’ve surrounded myself with and my own in-depth research. That being said while I am many things, being omniscient and having every experience in the world is not one of them. If I speak on something directly relating to you that isn’t completely factually accurate or is offensive/insensitive to that community you’re a part of, please let me know. I have an ask box and my DMs are open, and I’m open to conversation and criticism as long as you’re respectful and have constructive intentions. I try to educate myself as best I can, but I am still human and still learning. However I will not accept any conversation that vehemently insists on defending anything or anyone listed in the DNI section above. There’s no excuse for bigotry, ever
Nerdy Interests
More will be added to this list as I remember them or find more interests. If you don’t see something but want to know if I enjoy or will make content regarding it, feel free to leave something in my ask box
Also: if there’s anything problematic about any authors or things listed, please let me know. I try to ensure what I enjoy has no negative content within or attached to it, but my awareness of such issues is nowhere near perfect

You know when you have these jokes and shitposts that only you and one other person on the planet really understand?
Well I thought I would share this anyway! even though only @galaxy-minecart has the full context to this jfhgkfhg
So here's the first one. Some more Wither-Watcher Deity!Grian stuff (you can find a proper drawing of him here, since I gave up drawing him properly after my 5th redraw on this fucking meme shitpost) but he's been thrown into empires smp.
More context under the cut
[do not repost, edit, use or claim as your own] [Reblogs help the artist]
So its basically from a deity grian crossover with empires (i made this before he canonically visited the server LOL) coupled with the imo absolutely hysterical concept of Joel just refusing to believe in deities and demons and the like. I mean when Xornoth showed up, mans deadass went ''i do not see. i am looking away. Xornoth? never heard of them.'', so its probably the same with gods.
Anyway so deity!grian shows up on the server and bumps into joel and makes him his 'listener' (which does NOT mean the same thing as it does in canon watcher lore in the absolute slightest. listeners in my lore are basically followers of the watchers, and as far as i know canon listeners are against the watchers so kgkfhghg v different) but joel the small king refuses to believe (or at least admit to believe) that grian is a god so he acts like they're just ''allies''. nevermind the dread of feeling the very gaze of the universe itself befalling Joel whenever he does something Grian dislikes, no supernatural powers to be seen here, no gods in this town,,,

Hello!! I’m alive and well. 
I haven’t had much to post as most of my art has been unfinished and/or private worldbuilding stuff or figuring out people’s designs. However I have fallen into a deep critical role hyperfixation on campaign 3, Ashton’s design and Campaign 1 Percival (etc etc) de Rolo and his whitestone arc, so I’ve been doing a few doodles of some designs here and there - specifically for c3 since I’m still new to c1. This is the first proper colored one however, so yay! It’s Ashton in pretty much the same outfit Taliesin wore during Ashton’s introduction bc I haven’t been able to get that visual out of my head :] I love their laugh, whenever I hear it is when I can best visualize them in my head, it’s so distinctly their sound. Might be my now pfp, maybe! love them a lot. Also hi critters! I’m new in this corner of the internet! any fellow newbies out there? :>

Team Rancher has my whole entire heart
Tumblr media
Hi, hello, I'm alive and I'm Totally Normal about these two.
Wanted to post this before I get so swept up in Empires Season 2 that I forget to put this here- I saw the scene where Tango was raging and Jimmy did his best to calm him down and stop him from doing something stupid and he said that quote and this. came to me in a vision, i immediately grabbed my tablet lol. Team Rancher brainrot is real, i love that these two got put together as soulmates. cant wait for next season when theyll probably burn down desert duo's incredibly flammable base [Reblogs and Comments help the artist and are very much appreciated!]

Guys kollok but the trauma stopped an hour ago and now they’re all happy
Can the radar have a reunion and ro can see the man who saved her and cdubbs and Laura can talk and mutually hate narcus and then Tibby can finally have the opportunity to heal and Billy and Mallory can finally have someone to bounce their bullshit jokes off of
Laura doesn’t have to be a tomb, to be hell, clarity doesn’t need to be dissipated, they don’t have to loose everything
SOBBING GUYS PLS

God of War loses his Kratos: dead Shad Gaspard, the former wrestler who gave his physique to the God of War Last Sunday, Shad Gaspard, ex-wrestler of the WWE and member of the Cryme Tyme tag team, was located off the beach of Marina Del Rey, where he was swimming with… God of War: Fallen God is the new comic that sheds light on the events between God of War 3 and God of War God of War represented a decisive step for the future of Kratos and for that of an entire franchise that found new lifeblood by modifying various elements of the gameplay… Will Kratos have that morale in the next God of War? Talk to us in the comments section below! It is worth remembering that Atreus in its adult version also served as an inspiration for another artist – and is as epic as his father. Other details such as the spear in his hands and the accessories on his beard also impress and excellently represent what can happen to the character in the next games of the franchise. The God of War also steps on the head of a sculpture of Odin, while one of the blades of the Blade of Chaos is embedded in the head of a wolf – apparently it is Fenrir, one of the creatures of Norse mythology. The art is meticulously elaborated and represents an older and more experienced Kratos. The following image is of Kratos on the throne of Odin, the supreme being of Norse mythology who is sure to give a headache to the God of War. We still don’t know what will happen next, but Turkish artist CK Göksoy gave us an idea through his art.

You are under no obligation to answer this obviously, but I was wondering how I can help support POC on tumblr as a minor (I have no money to donate to people in need but I will still signal boost posts with donation links and such). I’m white but I want to show my solidarity and support when someone calls something out in the atla/lok fandom for being racist. How can I do this without speaking over people? I’m so deeply sorry if this irritates you, I just don’t know where else to ask.
Hi anon! First of all, I appreciate you coming to an adult with this question instead of a kid. It really does bother me that white folks on this platform ask kids of color to educate them and I would prefer that white folks come to me or another adult, personally. I think when it comes to criticisms of atla/lok (both the show and the fandom) that have to do with race, the most important things you can do are a) follow blogs run by poc, especially by folks who are Asian and/or Indigenous (which you should do anyway bc honestly the blogs run by poc in this fandom are superior) and b) support/reblog their content (this includes fics, fanart, hcs, criticism, etc) which again, you should do anyway because the poc on this platform produce some truly incredible content. With regard to criticism specifically, I would encourage you not to add on unnecessarily to what a poc is saying. Unfortunately statements like “white folks don’t clown on this post” are highly necessary on this platform, and thus I believe that white people who come across these posts and want to support people of color should reblog and not put anything in the tags, replies, or in their reblog. It’s unnecessary. Please don’t speak about topics which you do not understand. 
Also, it’s probably a good idea to start reading about racist ideas and tropes in media. Some that get brought up a lot in atla/lok fandom are a) the tendency to make Brown people fighting against injustice in a violent way evil b) the sexualization of Brown folks generally, but in particular Brown women and girls c) the tendency to paint cultural appropriation as “progress” and to paint folks resistant to cultural appropriation as resistant to innovation and d) the appropriation of Hindu religious symbols and ideas in the creation of the Avatar, the combustion benders, chakras, and other important concepts within the atla/lok universe, and subsequent caricaturing of South Asians. There are of course so many more, but as I do not come from any of the cultures represented (or rather misrepresented) in atla/lok, I’d ask you to defer to folks who can speak on those tropes and their implications better than I can. 
Also important to note: I am just one person, and people of color are not a monolith. I have a very specific experience as a person who benefits from light-skinned privilege, who was not raised in a religious minority group, who is not an immigrant and does not come from an immigrant background, who speaks English as my first language, who is not Indigenous, etc, etc, etc. My experiences are not the experiences of every poc and my opinions are not the opinions of every poc. We are not a monolith. I’m almost certain that another poc is going to see this and disagree with me, and that’s totally fine! (and if that’s you please do rb with your thoughts!) I’d really encourage you to listen to a variety of voices and really think critically about your role in all of this. Numerous people of color have written articles about how to support poc in various circumstances, and while those may not be directly applicable to fandom, I do believe that through reading and thinking critically about those resources you can come to some conclusions about other ways to support poc in this particular environment. 
also white folks: do not clown on this post! :)

ABOUT ME
Hachi ✨ 20 ✨ She/Her ✨ 🇵🇭 ✨ INFJ 6w5
Hello, I’m Hachi! I'm a full-time freelance illustrator on Fiverr, and I hopefully plan to branch out in other artistic areas in my life! Expect me to dump all of my artistic interests over here : #hachichiart
I also have a children’s picture e-book that I self-published on Amazon. I made it as a requirement for my high school thesis, so while the art there is definitely a representation of my past, I still stand by the message I was trying to send. I hope to eventually branch out this series in a form of a webcomic of sorts, for people who can’t afford to purchase my e-book for financial reasons. These characters are extremely dear to me, and I can’t wait to expound on them when I have the time lmao. Here’s a tag regarding the series: #behindtheartistichand
Some note-worthy things to mention, this blog is generally 15+, but I do make sure to tag any NSFW content and general triggers out there. I often post and retweet adult animation, so I’d say tread carefully if you’re a minor. I’m also critical with the media I consume, but most of the time, I like to talk about why I like something rather than why I hate it. I just find it more fun to expound on the positives of my favorite things. I also don’t take everything seriously.
Please let me know privately if I did or say anything wrong. Sometimes I say things without meaning to, and I’m not the brightest crayon in the box, so constructive criticism is greatly appreciated. If you take offense with anything I posted, just send a polite DM and explain why it offended you so I can be educated regarding the subject. I’m also available for any questions, DMs and a genuine chit-chat.

Heyo Y’all!
This is my big ol’ multifandom, vent dump and main tumblr blog. For personal info read my bio please. I reblog constantly but also make text posts, memes, and some art! Here’s some of the fandoms you might expect to see on this blog, oldest to newest:
Warrior Cats (mostly just reblogs, some art here and there especially of my old ocs)
Critical Role (less involved in this fandom atm)
The Magnus Archives (less involved in this fandom atm)
Hollow Knight (go follow my sideblog for more of this fandom)
Mcyt/Dream SMP (reblogging, lots of text post, and my share of fanart)
Arcane (reblogging, text posts, and a bit of art)
Rain World (reblogging, ocs, and some art)

Those fandoms as well as some random reblogging. Btw I swear quite a bit here, mostly in my liveblogs so if you don’t wanna see that maybe this isn’t the blog for you. So um, yeah! This blog is all over the place but if you stick around I think you’ll enjoy it here. Please be kind to me and others :)

PSA: I do not keep up with what Dream, the Dream Team people, or Jschlatt is doing. I have not done research into them because I don’t watch their content. Who I do watch is a wide range of other minecraft youtubers and streamers who are sometimes friends with them. I’m not interested in any sort of accusations or rumours about the above parties. I do recognize the seriousness of these talking points but I am still not a fan of any of those people and it’s not my business.
My tagging scheme for reblogs is as follows:
Art = fandom acronym + art
Text posts = fandom acronym + stuff
Comics = fandom acronym + comic
Memes = fandom acronym + meme
Fanfics = fandom acronym + writing
Important Fandom Info = fandom acronym + announcement
Examples: #tma art, #cr stuff, #mcyt writing etc.
Other (not self-explanatory) tags:
talking out loud = open conversation anyone can respond to
personal = often means don’t rb but not always, just info about me
talking to _____ = the blank will be filled in with the name of a mutual I chat to often
my art = all my serious art posts
sadness with no fandoms = vent/emotional posts, the tag being a reference to my blog title. It doesn’t always have nothing to do with fandoms tho, I just like the funny reference.

She-ra Inspired Actor AU - II
Maya Sanchez as Catra
Taylor Cruz as Adora
Jessica Cho as Glimmer
Marcus Patterson as Bow
A She-ra Actor AU fic where She-ra and the Princesses of Power is a popular tv series and our lovable characters are played by actresses/actors. Inspired by the amazing fanart and concept by @sunzho and @hey_adora on instagram #cayaactorau, see link below and please follow them!
https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/cayaactorau/
P.S. I also changed the “real-life” name for Adora’s actress that sunzho and hey_adora came up with from Claire Cruz to Taylor Cruz . Not that I hated the name but I have bad experiences with Claire’s in my life and it felt odd on my part to write about a character with the same name...please forgive me!
Callbacks and the Chemistry Test
Unlike the day of auditions, callbacks was less hectic yet all the more nerve-wracking. The waiting room held a handful of actresses and their mothers and/or managers, sometimes they were one and the same as Taylor, unfortunately, knew quite well. Taylor herself had come alone. There was no mother, no manager, no agent, no friends or even distant relatives. As her mother had so eloquently last told her: she had made her bed and laid in it. Mother of the year, she was not.
Taylor sat in a chair situated in the corner, isolated away from the others and their curious looks. She had showed up late (again) and as soon the other occupants had glanced up to see who had entered, their eyes had immediately darted away in uneasiness. Letting out a gruff sigh, Taylor understood the tension that radiated around her. She didn’t look like the typical cheerful, all fake smiles, blonde actresses that overflowed the waiting rooms for auditions. And it didn’t help that she had caused a scene her first day.
But seriously, that bitch had it coming. Who the hell did she think she was going around telling people to “go back home to whatever backwards country they came from” or some shit along those lines. And it wasn’t like the other girl was going to say anything back. She was practically shaking with fear. Pathetic. And Taylor was sure as hell wasn’t going to let anything like that slide.
Tilting her head back until it thumped against the wall, Taylor counted the tiles of the ceiling to calm her racing heart. Though Taylor radiated a “no-fucks-given” exterior appearance – very successfully she might add— inside, she was a bundle of nerves. Ever since she had been labelled “difficult to work with, irresponsible punk, worthless actress” from her last gig, she had been flailing ever since to land a role. Casting directors who have heard down the grapevine barely gave her a shot these days and scripts barely ever made it into her hands. Nineteen and peaked. Wonderful.
Taylor let out a hiss at the thought before giving her head a good shake. No. She was not out yet. She may be down but definitely not out. This lead for She-ra was going to change her career around, she just knew it. Taylor could feel it in her bones that this role was going to be life-changing.
With everyone in the room avoiding eye contact with her it allowed Taylor to observe them blatantly. None of the faces really stood out to her and she smirked smugly when she didn’t see the bitch who’s face she almost caved in hadn’t made it to callbacks. Well, serves her right. Although with a second browse around the room Taylor failed to notice the one person who would’ve stood out right away. She’s not here, Taylor thought.
A wave a disappointment washed through her. She was selfish and she knew it and there was no one but her good enough for the part of Adora/She-ra but she had hoped the other girl…Mana or was it Mara – that last one sounded familiar – would defy the odds and at least be called back. Taylor did appreciate a good underdog story.
The room emptied and soon it was just Taylor lingering. The other actresses left, some looking dejected but most wore expressions that were hard to read. Maybe they saved the best for last? That was the famous saying was it not? At last she was led down the hall and back into the same room with three familiar smiling faces. “Hi Taylor. Great to see you again.” The casting director greeted. “We were really impressed with your audition.”
Taylor couldn’t help the smile that grew on her face, ears slightly burning. “Thanks.”
“So the producer and I have something a little different planned –” The casting director was cut off by a soft knock on the door and immediately Taylor’s eyebrows shot up. Was someone crashing her callback? What the hell?
The door opened slowly until eventually a mop of brown hair, bright eyes and a sheepish smile peaked into the opening. “Uh hi? I was told to meet here?”
“Mara?” Taylor exclaimed, her guard up. What on earth was she doing here? And during her callback? None of the other girls had their callback rudely interrupted.
“Ma-ya.” The girl corrected, her furrowed brows conveyed that Taylor wasn’t the only one confused by the turn of events. She met Taylor’s eyes and it was clear that she recognized her. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to interrupt I must’ve gotten the time mixed up.”
“No, no there hasn’t been a mistake. Please come in Maya! We are so glad you can make it today.” The casting director cheerfully beckoned the girl into the room. “You’re actually just in time. I was just explaining to Taylor here what you can expect today.”
Maya shuffled in gawkily until she stood a respectful distance apart from Taylor. They eyed each other warily until the producer cleared her throat. “We just wanted to say we were really impressed with both of your auditions and instead of reading from the script that was sent to you we want you two to read from this. We’ll let you two a quick moment to familiarize yourselves with the scene.”
Unable to fathom what was happening Taylor nodded absentmindedly and reached for the new script. She gave it a quick read-through, noting that it was a more detailed script of the first altercation between the leads Adora and Catra, the villain of the show, from what Taylor had grasped from the pitch and initial script that was given to her. The new scene was quite the pivot Taylor had been expecting.
                                                  ADORA: I’m not going home Catra.
(screams from the burning village echoes in the background).
ADORA: I can’t. Not after everything I’ve seen. (ADORA reaches for CATRA’S hand). 
ADORA: Come with me! You don’t have to go back there. We can fix this.
This scene was much more expressive and heartbreaking than the solo scene she had been preparing as she thumbed through the first few lines. Taylor had finished the read through first, allowing herself to study the girl next to her. Closer, she could note the sprinkling of freckles that spread from one cheek to the other. And Taylor wasn’t sure if Maya was even aware of the way her tongue stuck out slightly when she read. Cute.
It took a couple more minutes but when Maya looked up from the script in her hands, Taylor straightened and pulled her eyes away from the girl and back to the producer who grinned slightly. It was clear that she had noticed Taylor  blatantly staring. Good going, way to look like a creep in front of the big bosses.
“I know you two must be confused but we wanted the callback today be a chemistry test of sorts.” The casting director explained. “I know that the both of you were hoping for the role Adora but we wanted to try something out.  I know this is unexpected but we wanted to see if our gut feelings were right. If I can have you, Taylor, read the part of Adora. Maya if you could read the lines for Catra?”
At the request Taylor couldn’t help the sense of relief wash through her though from the corner of her eye she could see Maya’s shoulders drop in disappointment. It took a moment but Taylor realized the extent of the read. “Her?” Taylor raised a disbelieving brow at the girl beside her. “You want her to play opposite of me?”
Maya let out a little huff, crossing her arms in front of her. “What’s wrong with that?”
Taylor took a moment to eye her critically. Sure she had a pretty mean glare when she got going but at the same time “She’s like…five-foot tall and a hundred pounds when wet. My grandmother looks more intimidating than her. You got to admit she isn’t very…villainy. ”
Maya spluttered indignantly. “Excuse me! For your information I’m five-foot-two!—”
Taylor scoffed. “Oh, my mistake. Five-foot-two. My apologies –”
“— and I’m stronger than I look! Just because I don’t have like…a billion piercings and an obnoxious devil-may-care attitude doesn’t mean I can’t be badassed. You haven’t even seen me act. I bet I can act circles around you any day!”
“Evidently not.” Taylor shot back, cheeks heating up in anger. “Seeing as they just offered me the lead role. You’re like…my sidekick or whatever.”
Taylor smirked as Maya unfolded her arms, strolled right up into her personal space in a fit of rage and pointed an accusing finger in her face. “Have you even read the script? Catra isn’t a sidekick.” She said the last part in disgust. “If anything, she’s her equal! She’s just a little misguided and hurt but she isn’t a bad person! And I'm pretty sure they didn't offer you anything.”
Distantly Taylor could see the casting members whispering between one another. In the far part in her mind Taylor could register that she was blowing this but the anger that was seething just below the surface was taking precedence.
“Ladies!” a booming voice cut through their argument. It was the executive producer. Oh great. They sure showed off their stuff. As if remembering where they were, Maya took a couple steps back so she was no longer evading Taylor’s space, quickly lowering her accusing finger at the same time. “Thank you for that…performance but I think we’ve seen everything we needed to see.”
The faces of the three women were hard to read and besides the polite smile they all wore, they weren’t giving anything away. Honestly, Taylor thought they’d be thrown out by security by now after what had to be the worst chemistry performance in the history of acting. “Thank you once again for your time ladies and I hope you both have a good day.”
Ugh. If that didn’t sound like a brush off than Taylor didn’t know what was. Taylor and Maya packed up their things in silence though both were trying to control the annoyance and frustration that surfaced during the performance. “Thanks a lot.” Taylor sneered as soon as they cleared the building’s exit.
Maya whirled around with narrowed eyes. “No. Don’t you dare blame that all on me.”
“No? Than who should I blame?”
“If only you would have just done the read-through with me without getting all snippy we wouldn’t had to have resorted to bickering like a bunch of immature babies.”
“That reminds me don’t you have a babysitter to run back to? I’m sure you’re missing nap time.”
Taylor watched in amusement as Maya ran her hands through her long dark locks, seemingly looking like she was resisting to pull her own hair out. “Oh my God! How old do you think I am?”
“…Like twelve? or something?”
Taylor would be lying if she said she didn’t enjoy making Maya lose her composure. It was quite fascinating actually. To watch someone as shy and introverted as Maya break out of her shell. “I am almost eighteen and I’m graduating from high school in a few weeks I’ll have you know!” Maya exclaimed hotly. “And not all of us are lucky to be born as freaking bean stalks!”
“I should thank you.” Taylor snickered as Maya’s nose bunched up in confusion. “Having you around is good for my ego. You make me sound waytaller than I actually am. If anything, I’m of average height. Just five-foot-six of pure American muscle.” She even raised her arms to flex, though it was hard to tell through her the thickness of her leather jacket.
“Ugh. I liked it better when all you did was glower.” Maya muttered with an eye roll. “Why do you have to be so difficult?”
Difficult?
It was almost instantaneous. Taylor could feel herself go numb and her features darken at the word. Lowering her arms to her side, Taylor shoved them into the pockets of her jacket in an attempt to hide the shakiness of her hands. “Difficult?” She echoed. “Fine whatever. Think what you want of me but I’d rather be difficult than some stupid, naïve little girl.” Taylor hissed.
As soon as those words left her lips Taylor wish she could reach out and pull them back in before they did any damage but it was clear on Maya’s hurtful expression that it was too late. Ignoring the pang of guilt hammering inside her chest at the wounded look on Maya’s face, Taylor steeled herself as she often done. “Well as fun as this has been, which it hasn’t and I’m lying, I have places to be.”
Tightly sealing the apology that sat on the tip her tongue, Taylor shouldered her way past Maya, knocking the girl a step back as she stepped onto the sidewalk and down the street, never once looking back where she left the stunned girl. It’s better this way, Taylor thought numbly. It wasn’t like there was a likely chance they would ever see each other again.

HISTORY OF FANDOM CULTURE FROM LJ TO AO3
'What you are doing when you say “If you don’t want crit, don’t post your story” is gatekeeping, and in a REALLY harmful way. Without fans creating work (fanfiction or art or meta), there is no fandom. You’re not only saying “you can’t be in fandom if you don’t want to be hurt” you’re actively calling for fandom to be cut down. That’s a bad thing. Fandom needs creator content in order to exist and grow.’

LJ was my initial experience of examining how fic fits into these huge gaps left by conventional writing, media and daily IRL conversation/education - the kind of healing that fic can bring to both individuals and a collective body of both knowledge and healthy questioning of assumptions about sexuality as a whole.  I mean, the kind of absolutely common place knowledge about consent, power dynamics, experimentation to determine what one’s own sexuality looks like, and the the options available is extraordinary.  To have that breadth and depth of knowledge presented in an often beautifully creative format; where you could discuss with the author and other readers anything included in the fic and what it meant to both literature and real life, as well as all things fannish that one’s wild imagination could come up with…. good god what I would have given for that information as a teen.

EQUALITY AUCTION ON DW
Hey y'all! I'm throwing my hat into the ring and participating in equalityauction, which is a fandom charity auction in the style of Sweet Charity, Live Long & Marry, Help Haiti, and countless others, that is seeking to raise money for racial justice organizations like Black Lives Matter.
They're currently accepting sign-ups from those who want to auction off goods and services, and bidding will start on June 20, 2020. You will not be paying me directly, but will be donating the agreed upon amount to a relevant charity, and then providing confirmation of that donation to the mods of equalityauction. You will also have to bid through equalityauction and not with me directly, which I will provide more details on once bidding opens.
Since I figure you lot might be interested in spreading the wealth for an absolutely necessary cause while also pressing me into servitude to execute your every nefarious desire, I'm cross-posting my offers here in case anyone is interested. (Under a read more so as to save space.)
Here are all the fandoms I’m willing to create for: The Adventure Zone, Avatar: the Last Airbender, Avatar: Legend of Korra, Band of Brothers, Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), Bon Cop, Bad Cop (both movies), Check Please!, Chuck, Critical Role, Cursed (2004), DCU, Dimension 20, Dragon Age Series, Due South, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Fury (2014), Galavant, Generation Kill, The Good Place, Goon, Grimm, IT Ch 2 (Muschietti), Leverage, The Magnificent Seven (2016), The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (2015), MCU, The Nice Guys, Ocean’s 8, Original Characters, The Pacific, Psych, Red Dead Redemption 2, Silicon Valley, Stranger Things, Suits, True Detective (season 1), White Collar, The Witcher (games & television).*
*If you don't see a fandom on my list that you know I've posted about/written for before, just ask about it. Chances are I simply forgot to include it.
And here are the specific types of works and pricing:
FANFICTION Auction: Starting at $10 for 3K, with an additional 1K for every $5 the bid exceeds the starting price. Accepting up to three separate bids. Buy-It-Now: Guaranteed 3K for $15. Accepting up to three separate bids. Sample Works: thrillingdetectivetales on AO3. Notes: Explicit is okay, though I reserve the right to veto any kink, pairing, or trope that squicks me. Fills will be provided on a first-come, first-serve basis, though you will receive your work by the end of the year. Also, while I’m happy to explore deleted scenes or additional fic in the same continuity as fic I’ve already written, I will not be accepting requests for new chapters of in-progess works. FANART Buy-It-Now: $20 for a single character, full figure. $35 for two characters, full figure. Delivered as a high-quality digital file at size 11x17. Accepting up to five bids. Sample Works: There's a curated selection here, or you can dig through  the "my art" tag on my Tumblr. Notes: Nothing more explicit than your standard pin-up, and I reserve the right to veto any kink, pairing or trope that squicks me. Original characters welcome. No vehicles or intricate armor/weaponry. Fills will be provided on a first-come, first-serve basis, though you will receive your work by the end of the year.
If you have any questions that need clarification, feel free to reach out.
