Alright, to ao3's soon to be arriving Wattpad Refugees, a basic guide to general user culture:

1.) Unlike Wattpads vote system that let's you like each chapter, the ao3 equivalent kudos only allows one per work. Everyone is generally quietly annoyed about this. To engage with each chapter, you're heavily encouraged to comment. Trust me, it makes people's day.

2.) Ao3 has no algorithm. By default it's latest updated work first. You can find things to your taste through searches, filters and tags.

3.) 'No archive warnings apply' and 'user has chosen not to use archive warnings' mean two very different things. No archives warnings means the work is free from any content that could require a warning tag (character death, graphic depictions of violence, non-con, etc). User has chosen not to use archive warnings means it could contain any of the warning content, be it hasn't been explicitly tagged. Treat it like an allergen. No archive warnings apply is allergen free. User has chosen not to use archive warnings, may contain traces or whole chunks of the allergen. If you're likely to have a bad reaction, maybe don't take the risk.

4.) Speaking of warnings, ao3 has very few restrictions on the type of work that's allowed. Whatever your personal thoughts or feelings on that are, thats how the site is. You're likely to run across some dark subject matters and a lot of people are uncomfortable with reading that. You're well within your rights not like these works and have your opinion on whether they should be allowed, but harassing the authors of such works (or any works) is more likely to come back on you than them. Ao3 operates on a strong policy of 'don't like, don't read'. Use the tagging system to your full advantage to only engage with the kind of works you want to see.

We look forward to welcoming you all and seeing the fantastic works you create. Happy writing!

I don’t have terribly high hopes that this will happen but imagine if we get Senior Year and the final fight is level 20 Bad Kids. Fantasy high is D20’s flagship property and the Bad Kids the original D20 party. How iconic would it be if they reached max level and become truly unstoppable gods, probably fighting something like reality itself just to make it a challenge still

#they deserve it #dimension 20 #fantasy high

the latest fhjy ep having “murder of a minor” in the content warnings: okay, it’s a big, terrifying fight and it’s entirely possible one of the bad kids goes down. we’ve been through this before, it’ll be fine

the actual murder of a minor happening:

this episode was the mathematical inverse of neverafter episode 3.

like think about it

standard fight that resulted in a TPK because of terrible rolls

vs

fight intended to be a TPK that wasn't, because they kept critting

It’s practically 2014 and you guys still don’t know how to google if an article is real or not before giving it 100,000 notes

[swimmingnewsie]

I'm not gonna lie I do think Pok Gukgak and Bill Seacaster should fuck just to make the bad kids parent polycule even more complicated

Marching Sleeping Order 🛏

I made this silly little comic before Junior Year came out based on a platonic version of "only one bed" trope, but never posted it! If anyone wants this as a printable zine lemme know!!
