I'm shook by your reading habits. Not in a bad way, just surprised you don't really read Wilbur/Schlatt or Wilbur/Quackity. Majority of Dre/grge in makes me cringe bc they make them both OOC. Sounds stupid of me to say because all fanfics shoehorn their personalities in some way. I usually stick to Wilbur stories. I think when I gave a chance to your DNF series, it was the only enjoyable portrayal out there. What sort of DNF stories/tags do you enjoy? Are you disappointed by the offerings out there?

Oh yeah, I'm disappointed a lot. I'm picky.

Special interest rant below >:). Long af.

Color code for sections.

How i read fanfic

Manhunt D/NF

C!DN/F

XDN/F

......How I read fanfic......

What I do is go through a tag, choose random filters based on the day, search by bookmarks then go through 8 pages, opening fics in a new tab I might read. Then, go through what I collect and see if I'm hooked. Usually out of 15 fics chosen I'll find 1 or 2 I'm like "hey, this was pretty okay." Rarely ill find something I'm like "gonna subscribe and camp this."

Manhunt D/NF

I do love DN/F Whump. If no one is hurt, it's hardly as fun.

I'm not going to lie, Manhunt!Dreem is my favorite. I really love him being a scary, but still funny and morally grey wisecracking man, but finding a fic where they don't make George a woman in a George disguise is hard. Why did you castrate him? Where is his feral energy, rude tone and the fact he's a 25yo man, writers?! If an author doesn't let George sound just as dumb as Spnap and half as cocky, I click off. The amount of authors writing themselves as George is unreal.

DSM/P Verse C!D/NF

I love XDN/F and love c!D/NF, but can't ever find fics I like of either.

So, with c!DN/F, I really search for a fic honestly written by what the fandom terms "apologist", but also, it can't defang him. Dre has to be bloodthirsty, but likable and charismatic. He needs to care, but do an awful job showing it. He has to be full of character!

But whenever I find fics that nail him, they fail at Gog or vice versa. Half the time I see "Gogy fixes him :)" No, Gogy does not fix him. Gogy is also just as messed up.

There is not an ounce of c!Gogy lore I've seen that would make me think he's not going to kill someone too. Have we all been watching the same man? He kidnapped Michael with Surpnurp and that was the funniest shit ever and the fact it got retconned I'm so sad about. C!Gogy is a nightmare. He's batshit, he's unhinged, he likes chaos. He's cold and standoffish to everyone outside his friends and a gremlin. But he also cares so much. Underneath that he's caring in odd small ways. He's going to steal your flower garden and then come back with a sandwich, hand you half, and then tell you a story about a cat he saw in the woods. He's lazy and a coward, yet cocksure and a persistent stubborn ass when he wants to be.

Yet fics write him like a victorian woman pining at the window for their love. Locked in a prison. How sad. He's going to criticize c!Dre for his wrongs? No. He's going to criticize c!Dre for not getting him armor and helping him and dethroned him and not giving him attention.

A fic I crave is a villainous c!Q (that's still sympathetic, and clearly written morally grey) killing c!Gogy. I want c!Q to taunt c!Dre. I want c!Q's obsession with power to push past his obvious love for his friends and I want there to be casualties. I want c!Gogy to be a price. I want his blood.

XD/NF Ramble

Now XDN/F. Oh man. My old writing long before DSM/P was in a fandom with Greek-like gods and I found myself pouring hours, and hours, and hours into researching religions as a teen. I came away with so many stories of gods who always were too inhuman, too powerful. Even out of love humans were hurt. Like many kids, I'd read Percy Jackson, but I saw a world of possibilities. I saw stories of humans falling in love with gods ending tragically.

But I haven't EVER dropped my obsession with stories of gods' and their human followers. I am so deeply in love with the concept.

But I fell in love with XD/NF because it was what I'd wanted, and honestly, George's lore eps are a HELL of a lot like the old media. You have to make sense of what's canon and not yourself and it's such what I wanted.

But...one AO3s filtering is limited by what people tag, and XD/NF isn't separated from D/NF in searches. And the fandom largely discards c!Gogy...just like they did for well...my old blorbo.

But anyway. I do actually have a super vested love for DN/F. Mostly AU fantasy verses, but I've read that one popular more RPF-esque one.

But the fandom lets me down ;-;. Mostly how they wrote Gogy.

Ok based on a post i liked a while back.

Decided to do this rant ask meme.

Im actually doing pretty good. I'm not angry really. This is just a f/o asks that i wanted to do. I just haven't gotten around to post them.

Be prepared. This has no filter. Its a rant meme so you should expect no filter. Because they said i could be raw as possible.

But If you can't handle my own personal opinions,or just don't like vent posts. Then keep scrolling. I thought I'd give a warning before posting this. Because everyone else is allowed to vent on their fave. Let me vent on mine. But again not everyone wants to see that so here is a warning. And tagged as vent.

Jotaro fan rant/hot take ask meme below

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~⭐~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1) what’s a Hot Take you have about your f/o?: that he is autistic. Like people's attitudes towards this hc is appalling. Like so many people are ableist af. Like i can't understand how they can't see it. Its right there. But even if he wasn't. Why are people so hung up about autistic hcs?! Like it pisses me off.

2) on what do you disagree with other fans of your f/o?: plenty. The list could go on. But I'll give my main 3.

1.That he was as close to kakyoin as people say he was. Like no offense but in canon,jotaro really wasn't super chummy or close with people. That kinda was the point. The openess we saw with him came AFTER SDC. Look don't get me wrong,he cared about kakyoin. But not any different or as much as he did for polnareff or avdol or iggy. The only person he kinda clung to was his grandfather Joseph. But i feel that's due to comfort and familiarity. But i mean you would too given his situation during sdc. You hardly know these guys and don't expect him to be chummy chummy with em. Like he isn't heartless. He's grumpy or standoffish to some. But they know he cares and wouldn't let harm come to them. But he isn't close friends. I feel people think someone has to be besties,uber super fucking happy dappy all the time around people to care about someone? Like can't someone care the normal amount? Like him and kakyoin aren't at odds but they aren't super chummy pals like people say. So no jotaro doesn't really have a "jobro" because he didn't need one. They all kinda "needed" each other to be really bluntly honest.

2. That he didn't care about his family. In canon jolyne and his wife. Like fr. The whole thing was stupid in canon. But fans make it worse. And I'm sick and tired of seeing it. It pisses me off. Like he loves his family to death. The reason is stupid but also given how he is not impossible. But he'd have to be broken up on his confidence in order for this to make sense. But EVEN THEN. Its fucking stupid to me. Even in my own writing,with my own storyline and s/i. He doesn't do this "boohoo too many stand users,its just a little too hard" type crap. Maybe he gets a bit shakey,but I'd expect better from a wife of jotaro kujo. LIKE BITCH,TOUGHEN UP OK?! Like im not gonna be nice. Because this rant isn't about being nice. I'm gonna be authentic and genuine. If you are gonna be with jotaro motherfuckin kujo. You gotta be able to handle him,the storms that comes,and the joestar bullshit that comes your way. You gotta put this bitch back in alignment every now n then. You have to be his anchor when he needs it. And he will surely be your sail. Like fr. Jotaro kujo isn't hard to write. Y'all just lazy,can't write relationships to save your life or never been in one. Maybe it's experience,maybe it's because i understand how he is. Maybe it's because i know people like him. But kujo is a ride or die. So for him to up and walk away is fucking stupid. Too many inconsistencies in canon (even by jojo anime/manga standards) pisses me off. Like i don't expect it to be perfect. But damn man. It's like people completely miss the point. That why in later parts he was written so fucking weak. Its like everything after part 4 got weaker and weaker up till the reset and sbr and then jojolion were great. 5 and 6 sucked. No offense. But they did. And some ideas araki had/has/did. I disagree with and just thought "why the fuck did you think this was good?" Why did your editors think this was ok? Also i hate his canon wife,not for the reasons you think. No i hate it was a fucking waste of time. We could have had something great. But nope. Ruined. Anyways. Jotaro is a good dad,a tad stupid sometimes,but a good father. And husband. So fuck outta here n miss me with the bullshit.

3. HIS FATHER WASN'T A DEADBEAT! AND NEITHER IS HE. (Tho jotaro kujo distant himself from them he wasn't completely out of their lives. Because that's fucking stupid af and i refuse to believe he'd ghost someone he loves so much or cares about even for canons bullshit excuses). Joots father was a musician,he was on tour. How the fuck was he supposed to know?! He was out here trying to make a living for his family,give them the comfortable life they deserve. And y'all blaming him for not being there?! Look just because y'all hate y'alls fathers don't mean you gotta put that shit on my mans. Sadao kujo also to my knowledge isn't a stand user so having him involved wouldn't make sense. Besides Joseph and him are at odds,no Joseph nor sadao truly hate each other. They are just petty stupid ol men. XD. But they love and care about holly and jotaro so damn much. They love their family. Sadao kujo is a good man. And honestly i see him like his son jotaro at least more so when he was younger. But as he got older and met holly and had his son jotaro. He got a bit softer,sweeter,and less abrasive. And i feel he and holly have a special relationship,a fun loving sweet couple and sadao helps calm holly when she gets worked up,like she has pretty good nerves when it come sdown to it,but i feel she gets overwhelmed easy,i hc her as a pisces so yeah,they get very overwhelmed easy. Again i could go on about his dad n mom. But jotaro has a loving family life growing up. Its social life that is hell for him,because society sucks and racism n ableism exists still people.

3) did you used to ship your f/o with anyone before realizing you wanted to ship them with yourself? : no. Not really. Even his canon wife. Tho i wasn't too keen on it for other reasons. I'd be ok with it,if it wasn't screwed up in canon(sorry they just ruined it for me. Manga looked better too the anime jotawife is ugly sorry not sorry). But no i don't ship him with anyone or anything else.

4) do you feel like you have to defend your f/o all the time? : unfortunately yes. I do. All the fucking time. People just don't get him.

5) what’s the dumbest thing you’ve heard about your f/o, either on the internet or irl? : that he wants to fuck dolphins?....i don't use the word cringe often but yeah that's cringe. Like one meme and y'all take it seriously. Not to mention y'all use it as an excuse to fridge the women in his life. Oof. Not a good look buddy,your sexism is showing.

6) what are some tropes that fan art of your f/o tends to follow?: tsundere,tough guy,bad boy with a heart of gold,main protag,etc?

7) did your f/o deserve better?: YOU BET YOUR LEFT ASSCHEEK HE DOES!!!! (Only the left because the right got tired)

8) do you even like the source your f/o comes from or do you only watch it for them & nothing else?: sometimes. Yes and no.

9) do you distance yourself from other fans of your f/o or their source?: yes. To a degree.

10) how did you feel when you realized “oh of course i had to like That Character”?: hahahahaha. Well it actually started when i was getting into jojos bizarre adventures. When it came to his part,i started to really really like the character. And the more i thought about it. The more i realized this bitch was just like my irl boyfriend. Maybe not 100% but good lord some things are so on the money its scary. But also it's inevitable,i tend to fall for the biggest toughest dude in the room. Even more so if he care. And joot care a lot.

11) do you think it’s better to have a copious amount of content for your f/o, even with the risk of finding a lot of ship art, or better to have a lot less?: depending on the situation.

12) aren’t you tired of being nice? this is an excuse to rant.: be prepared.......

Ok look,jotaro kujo isn't gonna take shit,but he isn't gonna be heartless to you. He doesn't love in your typical "uwu mushy gushy" way. Not to say he can't be softaro. Because he definitely is. But he is more of a private person than kiss n tell. Sure if he's feeling cocky,needs to lay down the law,especially when he was younger. He'll gladly let you know what's up. But for the most part,he rather keep his relationship with someone,between him and that someone. He is a good man deep down. He will open doors,get you anything you need,he's the type if you feel down,he'll be there to listen. He isn't always good with words but he tries,and most of it is solid advice. But if you need comfort and not advice. He'll be there to help with that too. Tho he is more awkward when he was younger than older joot. But he still tries. Maybe he'd give a hug,or something that he knows is a surefire way to calm you. It works with his momma so why not you? Even if you ain't a huggy person,jotaro's hugs are reassuring and you feel so secure in his arms. Nothing and noone will hurt you while he's around. He's more of a acts of service and maybe even physical touch kinda guy. Physical touch i say because words are hard for him. He'd rather show than tell. Not to say he can't talk or tell you i love you. He does,definitely. But physically showing you by doing things for you. Hugs,kisses,protective arms around you,making your bed,getting you coffee,flowers,etc. That is so much easier for him to grasp and understand than words alone. To him, "Anyone can say i love you,its takes a special man to show it. Actions speak louder than words to me." . Gift giving is another love language. Again words of affirmation isn't impossible for him,it's just a language that he understands but feels meaningless without actions to back it. Now if he knows you're the type of person who loves to tell him how much you mean to him aka words of affirmation. Be careful with your words,he will take it to heart. Jotaro kujo will remember what you said. Again if he knows you,and your quirks. You're fine. But don't expect a perfect boyfriend/husband. Sometimes he needs help understanding. Be blunt first than details. Simple. This goes not just with words but sometimes even actions.

Oh yeah one more thing. He loves sea life,that is his life after all. But he does love things outside his potential fixations.

Again jotaro would say i love you ok? If that's what you want. But he himself doesn't find it necessary if it doesn't mean anything. Aka unless you are in a relationship. He aint gonna say it. That's just how he is. There isn't anything wrong with that ok?

Star platinum is gonna be a different rant for another time.
