You said "which is a tragedy in its own right as far as my tastes are concerned, but I digress", but I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this. I hope it's okay to ask, but what kind of fics/pairings would you like/prefer to see emerge from the fandom?

Of course it's okay to ask, dear anon!

Personally? I'd love to see more variety. One of the chief reasons why I enjoy reading fan fiction is finding new things I like - perhaps some pairing I hadn't considered before, some batshit premise or crossover that turns out to be actually brilliant, or maybe a cool genfic that explores previously unseen sides of a character or character dynamic that people don't write about very often. I'm not really the kind of person who seeks out fic based on specific tropes. Once I've read a story with a certain trope in a fandom, it's pretty unlikely that I'll go and read another one with a very similar premise, unless I really enjoy the author's writing.

So what I'd be excited about seeing in the AO3 tag would honestly just be: something new. For instance, a sapphic Sibylla/OC fic would be such a fascinating read (as would be anything at all that explores Sibylla's character a bit more). Or a Saladin-centric fic - sign me the hell up. I'd adore finding something for Godfrey or Imad, and we all know a new Tiberias fic would have me foaming at the mouth. I'd also love an interesting and/or wacky AU (and I'd write one myself if I had the time). Make it Jane Austen and let Baldwin have a gentleman suitor, while Sibylla elopes Lydia-Bennett style with Guy, and Godfrey and Raymond grump about in the Navy. Write a daemon AU (as in His Dark Materials) in the canonical universe. Or throw them all into the 21st century and let Reynald send Saladin threatening messages via fax.

I know the KoH fandom is much too small to engender the sort of variety I'd ideally like to see, and it's only reasonable for writers to sort of double down upon the fic premises and tropes that have done well in terms of hits and comments in the past and write more of the stuff the majority enjoys. As far as taste goes, I'm aware I'm the complete outlier here, and I really don't mean to antagonise anybody with this post or insult their writing or reading preferences. I'm glad your fics are doing well, folks, I truly am - it's only that I'm very likely not the target audience for them. Sometimes I just wish I weren't the only freak in the circus, lol.

(The post anon is referring to is this one btw.)

You might have not have an opinion on this but I’ve been rewatching Grilled Cheesus and I feel like the framing is so weird?? It’s fundamentally about Kurt and his dad and since they start the whole religious thing FOR Kurt to support him, the issue shouldn’t be religion. As soon as Kurt said he didn’t everybody to pray for him in school, and that it made him uncomfortable enough to complain, it should just be done. Everybody can pray themselves, leave the Hummels out of it. Thoughts?

I have thoughts!

I have a vague memory of debating this with people on the sub, back in the day because the framing is so weird. It's that Glee problem of feeling like they must suddenly be a PSA and present all angles, even at the cost of character and a satisfying narrative. The other glaring instance I can think of is the suicide discussion scene with the God Squad in 3x14. Why must they always do this with Kuinn?

The problem with Grilled Cheesus is that it's trying to be Kurt's story but also wants to present this middle road of "religion works for some and not for others". And there aren't any inherent problems with that messaging. It's perfectly valid for people to seek comfort in religion and equally valid for others not to want anything to do with it. But this is Kurt's story and he makes his feelings clear. It's frustrating to watch characters cross his boundaries and insist that he's being ungrateful when he's already going through an extremely traumatic time. I honestly don't know why Glee thought this was the way to achieve balance.

I think everyone is being kind of a prick to Kurt in this episode, frankly. Even sweet Mercedes whose good intentions I appreciate and I usually stan is being way too pushy with her closest friend. All Kurt needed was her support and respect and Mercedes is usually excellent at giving that but the episode uses her and Quinn as religious spokespeople. They're ideas in Grilled Cheesus, not people. At least Mercedes is still more respectful than Quinn but even she's being way too pushy. No should be no. And even if some of Kurt says is harsh, he's still allowing people to do whatever they want with their faith and is just asking them to leave him and Burt alone. The prayer scene in the hospital feels particularly disrespectful. Because yes, who knows how Burt feels and it can't hurt, but Kurt has explicitly asked them to back off. Pray at home or at church, ffs! And no, I don't think Carole had the 'authority" to overwrite Kurt's wishes in this particular case. If anything, Carole should have stood behind Kurt.

The characters advocating for religion or even a conversation really betray that they aren't truly in it for Kurt. Otherwise, they would have left well enough alone the moment Kurt expressed discomfort. There's a time and a place for civil debates but right after his dad's heart attack ain't it. And I love Quinn and write a lot about how dirty she was done and all that so I feel I have permission to say this but she just really sucks in this episode. She feels so entitled and makes it clear that her making a statement about faith is more important to her than Kurt's feelings. I wouldn't say someone like Sue who is ardently on the opposite side is much better because she doesn't have Kurt's best interests in mind, either, but she's at least a little more supportive. And she's supposed to be the villain! And don't get me started on William Shitecester who takes this as an opportunity for dialogue. What a shit teacher you must be to prioritize a lesson over the wellbeing of a student in crisis.

I also dislike how people ignore Kurt's valid reasons to dislike religion, again a sign of hypocrisy. Because yeah, Kurt is being kinda harsh but who wouldn't give him a pass in this situation, and the ignorance of the Glee Club to not consider the church's historic distaste for gay people is infuriating. Easy to say god welcomes everyone or whatever when people like you haven't been persecuted for hundreds of years. And as all this is going on Kurt is getting severely bullied at school for being gay so what excuse do they have for not taking his identity into consideration? That they don't really care. Everyone is so self-absorbed and self-righteous in this episode it's painful to see.

The audacity of people to call Kurt ungrateful and intolerant is what pisses me off the most. On the one hand, the episode works well to establish how alienated Kurt is starting to feel even within the New Directions and it builds towards him going to Dalton, which I like and consider good storytelling. On the other, it's incredibly frustrating to watch this kid be so isolated when he would need his friends the most just because Glee decided (and in-universe Schue) that they wanted to preach about religious tolerance. Just leave the damn kid alone. It's just one of those instances where we should not be having philosophical discussions; literally who gives a fuck, Kurt might lose his only living parent! So Grilled Cheesus as a whole is a frustrating watch despite me appreciating certain storytelling elements.

If anything, Anon, I have too many opinions on this. Some of it is strong feelings about the injustice and hypocrisy of it all but the rest are just frustrations on a story level because it feels so unnecessary. But the bottom line is that Kurt was right and his friends should have respected him more than their religious preaching. And again, just pray at home or go to church and discuss it with your pastor. Not the time to try and convince your friend that religion can be good, actually. Who gives a fuck, literally read the room Stacy.

#nothing makes me go into such a protect kurt mood like grilled cheesus does #literally why does everyone else suck so bad #they're just so... ignorant of the weight of the situation #can you stop thinking only about yourself for one second #and again mercedes has the best of intentions #but maybe what kurt needed was for you to LISTEN #i could go on honestly #i think i summarized most of my thoughts but there's more where that came from #glee asks #anon #kurt asks #kurt hummel #grilled cheesus

I want all of my friends to know that I love y'all so so much and I'm sorry I've been so bad at responding to DMs and stuff these past few weeks, I do not think that is going to improve for at least another few weeks because I am just so so busy and everything is so so so much and I am doing my best and I love all of you people in my phone and I will do my best to actually Talk to you all more and better in a few weeks when everything has slowed the fuck down and I'm no longer stressed to the point that it feels like my brain is leaking out of my ears.

ah fuck it, i can't deny myself the love of the idea of layla ballet dancing in an au

#ama mumbles #layla (oc) #ignore what i said a long time ago about her being in the orchestra shes a dancer too #shes would definitely be a dancer whos more known for musicality and character than technicality #someone very fun to watch bc she will always bring in a lot of energy for whatever she is portraying #however she isn't very cut throat so she'd be in a smaller company and doing it more for the love of the dance than trying to be the best #someone always in the corp or a soloist and rarely if ever seen in a principle role #im in a ballet mood can you tell #she loves to dance just as much as she loves to play the violin so she could easily be in either position #i just love ballet dance too much to deny myself it #all that said the idea of her in a villianess role is very funny to me. i think she would have so much fun with it #but also would be great in very silly roles. she wouldn't be first pick for any tragic roles tho lol no odettes for her #also also agria being kitri and taylor giving layla cupid from the same show. and cupid is usually played by one of kitri's friends #in front of my cork board

Toga's entire story is actually so devastating I'm gonna cry

#how can shiggy be deserving of redemption in izu's eyes but not toga?! #babygirls been turned away from everybody #she deserves someone that understands her and actually has her best interests at heart #and her fight with ochako and how sad she was 😭 #then fucking dabi #ignore me im in a emotional mood rn #grimm rambles

why do men feel the need to start a conversation with girls all the freaking time. fucking trip into the railroad and die

#just now a man saw i was carrying a cat carrier (empty) and started saying to me cat! cat! cat! to which i was like 'it's empty' bc i #assumed he was scared or something and he went 'its a cat carrier! for the vet!' and i said yeah and pretended not to hear whatever he #said next. yesterday another man sat behind us on the subway and said 'tomorrows april fool huh?' and kept talking for a while even though #we studiously ignored him #and we were all on the metro to keep company to a classmate who was scared to be in the rail station by herself bc a guy had #recently sat up next to her while waiting for the train and tried to make conversation and then went 'well i can see you're not in the mood #to talk so ill go' (<- which amazing great best case scenario in these situations fuck off) #*man not guy he wasn't our age #and while we were walking early on the day a guy walking the street opposite to us started asking if we were ok and stuff when one of us #jumped bc she saw a pigeon 😐 and we had to go out of our way to avoid going in the same direction as him #all of this in like 2 days #maybe men shouldn't be allowed outside at any time #x #* i feel like it sounds like it was just a concerned guy but it was obviously just to start talking to us bc he kept on going #and NOW a man came to stand in front of me. where did you come from. piece of shit. #oh no wait maybe he needs to get off the train #well. deserved if you ask me

Batfamily fans are annoying because they hate Bruce, Batdad fans are annoying because they woobify or reduce Bruce, neither of them give a shit about the villains as the secondary main characters, nor Gotham as any atmospheric or thematic weight other than “backdrop city,” the main comic titles currently are catering so heavily to the weekly Twitter discourse it’s actually a real fucking problem, etc etc.

And then meanwhile I’m over here defending The Dark Knight Returns and trying to figure out what the hell to do with my realization I don’t give a fuck about Dick as Nightwing.

#If I had the gumption or the care to be more of an essay writer about Batman #I’d take a crack at trying to express how constantly reducing Robin to Batman’s CHILD is actually a little… #like yes he was Dick’s guardian #and yes he legally adopted Jason #and Tim #Damian’s his biological son etc etc #but the child fantasy of Robin is just as much being Batman’s best FRIEND as it is getting to drive the Batmobile as a 10-year-old #Robin and Batman are partners and they’re best fucking friends #and yes it’s a grown ass man treating a kid as his equal #because it’s FUN. and it’s fun best contrasted with the villains being the most HORRID fuckin’ people you have ever seen #just as Bruce/Batman needs to be a harmony between terrifying violence and unrelenting compassion #Batman and Robin need to be a balance of absolutely child’s logic and ultimate good vs Very Fuggin Scary evil #evil that’s Very Fuggin Scary and then meanwhile death traps and fights on giant memorabilia #and I’ve got wider issues with the ever expanding Batfamily #but I think reducing Bruce to this hyper anxious love lug of a Dad backing cookies for everybody as a defense against Batjerk takes #and what have you #is equally… not it. #I’m in a Batman mood ignore me.

been thinking about enzo's letter to messi lately

#by which i mean ever since messi's brother said all That and the psg disasterclass afterwards #enzo imploring messi to stay and have /fun/ ronaldinho telling his young self to tell messi to just /play/ with the ball and have fun #scaloni assuring messi that he's going to build a team around him and he's going to /enjoy/ playing football with them #i want messi to have fun in his last few years of playing football but then i remember football isn't the beautiful game anymore #it's politics it's capitalism run amok it's xenophobia and racism (looking at you catalans) #after LM8 and fifa the best i kind of want messi to just focus on his national team bc clubs clearly see him as a bargaining chip #and nothing else.. but i will support him no matter what he decides to do #i mean i watch psg matches at 2 am for him im down bad #but yeah enzo's letter.. i keep reading and rereading it and it floors me. i don't know im just in a mood rn ig. ignore me please
