Can someone clear this up for me? I’m a bit confused.
Apparently, Gwyn would never be able to have a satisfying and potentially kinky sexual relationship with Azriel because *trauma*.
But Elain could, even though she was apparently IMMENSELY traumatized by being thrown into some water and being made young and strong and even MORE gorgeous for literal eternity (let me just gather a tear for you, love)… not to mention she blushes at the mere mention of a menstrual cycle.
Shipping Gwyn with Az because she’s a strong warrior woman means that we hate femininity.
But deciding Elain will be a spy with Az only means that she’s strong and capable, but she’ll definitely remain a delicate feminine flower, at the same time.
Gwyn mentioning the Dread Trove to Merrill to try to get more information is “sus”.
But Elain sneaking about town where nobody knows exactly what she’s doing is nothing worth mentioning.
When Gwynriel shippers reference the bonus chapter, it doesn’t mean anything because it’s not actually a “real” chapter.
When Elriel shippers reference the bonus chapter, it means EVERYTHING because the fact that they’re both hot and want to bang clearly means that they’re meant to be together forever. And it’s a VERY REAL CHAPTER.
Make it make sense!

me: I hate that I can never focus on books or reading, I need to go to a cabin in the woods with a stack and not be disturbed until I finish, there’s nothing like the feel of a paper book in your hands and the smell of an old, well-loved favorite and even the chunks that fall out bc you’ve read it over a hundred times and the binding is fragile books
me when the Wi-Fi goes out: böōōkš ?? never heard of her

With all the talk of the Soul Eater manga, I wonder how many people that care enough to browse the tags obssesivley have actually read ir and not just watched the anime?

Too ADHD to read a book but not too ADHD to listen to a YouTuber rant Abt it for a few hours or read a fic or smthn
(this is also how I consumed Homestuck (read part of it then only fanworks/fanart to fill in gaps) and victorious/iCarly (I've seen every quinton reviews video more than once, I have a PROBLEM) and the vampire diaries (thank you Jenny Nicholson yoy absolute icon))

I wanna read the hunger games trilogy again but I’ve already given myself the reading challenge of all 41 discworld books, and I’m reading the hobbit as well. Im glad I found my love of reading again but also I want to read so many things at once but I don’t have the brain capacity to read 5 books at once OR even just one book in a day AHHHHHHHHHHHH

Why is it that reading fanfiction is so friggin easy? I go through a decent amount of fics here and there.
But like reading a book? Impossible. Reading past chapter 2? Unheard of.
Is it because in fanfiction I’m familiar with the characters?
The thing is if I read more books I get introduced to more characters I can then read fanfic about but apparently thats not a good enough reason for my brain.

I'm low key sad that for how big the Fandom is/was there are little to no fanfic readings.

Not enough drama in my day, so...
LOL at Elriels who think that nobody else can use a Tattoo Shop/Flower Shop AU trope because obviously that means, and I quote, "they literally want Elriel without Elain"
LOL at Elriels freaking out over a fanfic titles and tropes used for content that, if they had even a modicum of maturity, they wouldn't even look at because IF ITS NOT YOUR SHIP WHY DO YOU CARE?
LOL at Elriels thinking we're so desperate to copy their titles and tropes, that now I'm DEFINITELY NOT going to compile a list of their fanfic titles to browse... just in case they can be tweaked to match a Gwynriel vibe that I'm trying to achieve.
LOL at the Elriels who will throw a fucking tantrum when I do, because it just proves that I'm the superior troll. They'll be screaming, and I'll just be over here enjoying my work and the work of my incredible friends.

I see you have a lot of Untamed/MDZS fics, are you planning on reading SVSSS or TGCF too?
I tried reading TGCF but couldn't really get into it, and I don't know a lot about SVSSS. Honestly, I found MDZS a little difficult to get through even though I already knew and loved the characters from CQL. It's just something about the writing style that made it hard for me, especially given the length.
