Idk ab y’all but the reason I’m still pulling for these two monster bitches is that their breathtaking selfishness does not in any way extend to one another he’s a coward but he would die for her she’s only just now realized what deep shit they’re in but she would kill for him both with no hesitation no treachery none of their underhanded little games or weaselly flourishes when the other’s life is at stake they make each other braver they make each other worse but they make each other better it’s all so bloody romantic

i seriously cant get enough of your writing. every update is like a gift from the gods. part of me wants to wait until underline the black is finished so i can binge read it and not go out of my mind waiting for each chapter. but i have a weak will and cant ever resist when it comes to your stories xD
are there any writers you feel that way about? or simply love their work so much you cant get enough? either on ao3 or not
Hi anon!
Over the years there have been writers I feel that way about! Though it's muted over time (often because most of my favourite AO3 writers / non AO3 writers I've ever had has stopped writing over time). The latest author I've really loved over the past few years on AO3 is dgalerab, but he stopped writing the way he used to a while back, and now I just you know, wait and hope and we'll see what happens (though a new fic did go up recently!). So right now I have no authors I'm really like...intense about, because...authors sometimes just stop writing for years, or they can drastically change the way they write due to just time and interest and so on.
So I would say right now there's no authors I really feel the way about. There's a lot of authors I love and support, who I have subscribed to on AO3, or who I look for new updates from on social media, but even some of my favourite m/m authors stopped writing m/m and started writing m/f instead (which I can't read), so...yeah I'm sort of in flux on that right now. Which is a shame, because it's a really nice feeling to sort of drop everything for an author, and immediately read what they've put out!
I know I'll find more authors like this, and then probably years later, something will change. Most authors do eventually stop writing, or change their work so much that like, it's always a fleeting feeling. There have been years where I've felt like that for 20 authors at the same time and it's been awesome, and then like this year where I don't really have it at all, and have watched a whole bunch of my favourite published authors (particularly in m/m) depart and go on to do other things due to the lack of success they found in m/m.
I've been reading a lot of manwha lately (South Korean long-form webcomics) and there's a few that I do drop everything for when a new chapter/episode comes out, like Dangerous Convenience Store, B-Class Guide, Love So Pure, XXX Buddy, Semantic Error (the manwha, not the novel/s), Mr 100% Perfect, Define the Relationship, Full Volume, and Love for Sale. But I'm not specifically following the authors, and in some cases, these are the first works by these authors so I don't know what they might do next etc. But yeah, I check daily for new chapters, and I usually immediately read them when they come out. It's different to what you asked being more story-focused than writer-focused, but it's still a really awesome feeling, and I reread these stories all the time up until what's out in English. :D
So I suppose I do have a similar feeling to how I used to, just...kinda different to being hooked on specific authors? It could always change though! The fact is I'm subscribed to like 300 authors on AO3 (where I'd read almost anything they write) and only about 3-4 of those authors update stories nowadays, to give you an idea of how many authors do just stop writing. All your faves will almost always eventually just...stop. (I would like to say I won't be like that, but I'm also a weird exception where I'm doing original writing on AO3 as a job, and most authors on AO3 aren't doing this). And when that happens 280~ times (I'm sure there's another 20~ authors that will update in a few months or a year), you just kind of have to wait until another one pops up klsdajfas

Jeeeezzzzzz
I truly dont know who i am + i am sick of whatever it is. Not sure of my sexuality anymore on account of sleeping with a guy and my gender seems to be on the move following that and. I just really need something stable right now. Anything. I'm also quite anxious lately but I got an appointment with a psychologist tomorrow and probably going forward. I don't know how much I can say about gender identity or anything even though like the rise in general transphobia and discussions of it is probably part of the reason I'm so anxious.
Who made everything work like this. It's so hard. I want to forget who I am. I think it would help me. Clean slate.

while im already on the train of teen wolf thoughts, i might as well say that i do not get sterek. romantically anyway. that ship is so intensely POPULAR and ive been seeing stuff about it for literal years, way before i ever even considered watching teen wolf or really knew what it was. pretty much every teen wolf fic i see on ao3 has some manner of sterek in it unless i SPECIFICALLY search for something else, like its just a given part of fanon, but now that im actually watching it im kinda like. where? like yeah they had that one vaguely homoerotic wall-pinning moment in season 1, they snark at each other a lot, but like. i don't even see them together that often. and that's not even MENTIONING the fact that in season 1 stiles is 15/16 and derek is fucking,, 22 (or 20, I'm not sure on his age but ik its at least a four-year difference),,, which is just. yeah no thanks
if anything they strike me more as, like, goofy, vaguely sibling-coded friends. stiles came along as a package deal with scott and started annoying the shit out of derek and derek had no say in the matter whatsoever, and i think that's beautiful.
all this being said, stiles is absolutely bisexual
