#i’ll tell you the fandom

[perfectmanisperfect]

i’m gonna rant on here cause no one will see it but some people istg. like sure i’ve been reading fanfiction for years and i just don’t understand the way some people react to it. like if something happens that you don’t like or makes you upset you have full autonomy to STOP READING IT. i don’t get going onto another app and just complaining about someone’s work. like most likely it was in the tags and even if something isn’t tagged which yes sucks you can still stop reading. like it’s fictional characters and people can interpret them however they want. they don’t belong to anyone and that’s the point of fanfic it’s their choice to write them that way. people who do this make people less likely to share work and worried about being dragged down. if you don’t see them that way great, find a new fic and move on. i couldn’t tell you how many times i’ve stopped a fic cause i didn’t like something but i can tell you i’ve never told someone their work is wrong or sent hate or gone on some other platform and started a hate train. sorry i just hate that so many people get this treatment and don’t feel comfortable sharing their writing. cause yes fanfic is not a job and no one is obligated to write it so please can people just silently walk away instead of bringing people down. and i know there’s complications to this argument cause some fanfic is messed up but in this case it was literally just someone disliking a characters action and i’m like there’s plenty of other fics where this isn’t the case and people write characters doing dark and fucked up shut all the time.

#i’m just ugh #can people be normal #stop complaining over something so inconsequential #fanfic #fanfiction #ao3 #can you guess what fandom this is #cause they’re getting toxic #and i’m too old to be seeing this shit #been seeing it for years #i’ll tell you the fandom #marauders #stop being toxic

I’m so tired. I spent the whole day working on Sun and Moon designs for a new AU that slammed into me this morning.

Still don’t know what I’m going to call it yet.

It’s going to be a weird mix of Wonderland and Oz.

Sun is from the town of sweets and Moon is from the porcelain city. They are the jokers in the royal deck of cards, jesters for the kind and queen of the land.

(I’m going to have to simplify their designs for when I draw them in future 😅)

I did a design for the MC as well. This outfit is probably from a ways into the story.

Y/N would, of course, physically look how ever you want them to, This is just what I would look like as them 😅

I used myself as a base then added a mix of Dorothy and added some touches of wonderland.

If anyone had any ideas for what I should call this AU I would love some suggestions

#I feel like you can tell I did the y/n design last #my eyes feel so tired #sleep time now #I’ll probably post more about this AU tomorrow #glitter rock #fnaf daycare attendant #fnaf moon #fnaf sun #dca fandom #fnaf sun and moon #sun and moon x reader #dca fanfic #dca fanart #glitter rock art

always wanted to arrange my artworks in a gradient and since I started drawing again over a year ago, I was finally able to put this together 🫶

#did an edit like that for an old fandom with official manga art and it’s kind of breathtaking that I actually managed to make a rainbow #edit with my own art?!? everything is 2023 art except the fall skk artwork but it matched yellowish green well enough lol #you can tell which kinds of color palettes I prefer but I really want to use more warm color palettes & maybe try more desaturated palettes #some other goals: drawing more women and environment focused artworks #(but who knows how much time I’ll have this year) #bsd #bsd fanart #my art #I did start a few non-bsd related artworks but didn’t have enough patience to finish them #that’s why it’s mainly skk too… the obsession hits different… I have other non-skk pieces I like too but the color palettes were hard to #fit into this edit… #my only non bsd related artworks where some concept pieces for uni #so strange to see the random mix of styles for this past year but also nice to see little consistencies #long post

https://www.tumblr.com/rist-ix/749015401700229120 not you reblogging this when you ship bloom with the man who murdered her family 😭

Bloom's into ppl who slay! Hope this helps :3

#alright snark and ship wars aside i get where you’re coming from tho #if you're genuinely interested in my thought process here i would love to elaborate #which is exactly what I’ll do! #first of all! the post you linked is about headcanons #which my brain kinda wants to put into a whole different category than ships — fandom ships in particular! — but i can leave that aside #because there IS an argument to be made that relationships are an extension of characterization and personality traits #if you wanna go that route i would wanna explain that Bloom's and/or Valtor's interest in the other is in fact based on canon #(even though I don’t really think ships need to be established in the source material. make shit up that’s what fandom is for #1) the Andros episode speaks for itself. Valtor specifically tells the Trix to back off because HE wants to be the one to fight bloom #2) the episode before that he asks questions about her (and only her; even though he has more powerful enemies to worry about) #demonstrating curiosity about and interest in her #3) that same episode (or the one before; can’t remember) is their infamous first meeting #where time LITERALLY slows down as the pass each other on the stairs #they get IMPACT FRAMES #the whole color palette changes!!! #idk about u but I eat that shit up. love the drama of it all no one does it like them #I’m gonna skip all the instances where Valtor is spying on Bloom through his little scrying spell because oh god who has the time #let’s go straight to Bloom #if I had a week I would not be able to collect all the moments where she growls his name in pure fury and single-minded determination #she gets a little bit obsessed with him over the course of the season and I personally think that’s very sexy of her #Bloom is known for her tunnel vision when it comes to her past and origins and Valtor's existence fits PERFECTLY into that #it ties in neatly with her overarching story of the past 2 seasons #literally PERFECT foils #which always makes for the juiciest stories #4) she singles him out for a duel in the museum episode #5) she can literally feel his presence #6) the mere mention of his name sends her into her weird faux enchantix #of course there’s no romance in canon but there’s TENSION AND CHEMISTRY which is all u really need for a ship #all their animosity and bad blood is what makes it so INTERESTING to wonder how they COULD work. it’s the spice that makes for good fanfic!

TAZ Sapphic Week Day 2: Cowboys

Dr. Harris Bonkers is the horse 💖.

Teaser for tomorrow: Monster + Dance!

#taz sapphic week #taz #taz amnesty #aubrey little #taz dani #danbrey #the adventure zone #the adventure zone amnesty #can you tell that I cut off part of this so I didnt have to draw a horse? #Listen. i love horses. Ive drawn them before. I have 2 (two) cowboy AU arts for another fandom #but i didnt have the time 😔 #maybe if I colored this piece I’ll expand to include a horse and a bg

[signed-sapphire]

I would love to see you draw a scene from my rewrite!

Any scene that makes you feel inspired to draw it at all, can be between Asha and Aster or between Asha and the royals or Aster with the royals, whatever you feel more inclined to

(I’m kinda bad at being specific with art requests because I wanna make sure the artist is drawing something they wanna do lmao)

Hehe I had fun with this

This is a scene from “Kingdom of Wishes” Chapter 12– Magic Pencil btw 👍

Notes under the cut

So I was reviewing the official designs for Asha and Aster and realized I was drawing Asha’s hair wrong. Oops. So I drew her “correct” hair in her past version. Amazigh girls usually get their first tattoos during puberty, that’s why I didn’t draw Asha with hers yet.

Also I know Aster didn’t conjure up a little Asha in the story, but I wanted to draw past Asha. Got any guesses from where I got little Asha’s outfit from?

The glowing eyes of Aster’s… yeah they look a bit creepy. Idk. It’s a cop-out for drawing hands bc they are the worst Disney villain ever, so this way I don’t have to draw hands

#saph doodles #did a bit of a more stylized take on aster’s hair #idk if it turned out good #tried a different lineart color for him too? since he’s in “sketch form” #dunno if i’ll be doing it in the future #also whoo a lot of word dump #probably should’ve broken it up but I didn’t want two full pages #could’ve done the whole scene where aster tells asha he knows her childhood but. i have to study. so #haha don’t expect this level of detail for all the asks i was just hyped for this one #also it had characters I know how to draw #sorry magnus you are terrible #(to draw. also your personality. but mainly terrible to draw) #wish #wish disney #wishverse #disney wish #wish concept art #wish star #asha and starboy #princess asha #asha #asha wish #wish asha #asha x star #star x asha #the kingdom of wishes fandom #the kingdom of wishes au #kingdom of wishes fic comic #the kingdom of wishes #kingdom of wishes

i am once again disappointed but not surprised at the COD fandom only caring about “sensitivity” when it’s convenient for them

#telling people it’s morally wrong to simp for makarov #whilst simping for graves or valeria #or ANY character in this damn series #just shows that you only give a shit about ‘sensitivity’ when it doesn’t inconvenience you #‘but he’s bad :(’ my brother in christ. let’s talk about western militaries #price nikolai and gaz literally kidnapped and tortured an innocent woman and child #the UK and US militaries have DEVASTATED vulnerable countries #y’all wanna talk about sensitivity?? then acknowledge how even the ‘good’ characters like the 141 are shitty! #none of these characters are good people! #i cannot stress this enough. eliminating characters because they’re ‘problematic’ eliminates the entire cast. every single one of them. #MAYBE farah would be safe?? i’m not knowledgeable enough to say for certain. but everyone else— 141. los vaqueros. laswell. alex. nikolai. + #valeria. graves. every last warzone operator. EVERY single character is ‘off-limits’ with that logic. #COD fandom is also horribly racist despite pretending it’s not. notice how people only talk about this when it’s white folks being impacted #no one gave a shit when a middle eastern woman and child were kidnapped and tortured. or when fans were romanticizing cartel violence. #or how the SAS CIA and Delta Force have histories of terrorizing vulnerable people; especially in the middle east and asia #i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again before anyone accuses me of smth false: #sensitivity is important. it can co-exist with letting people enjoy problematic things. the source itself is problematic — #ergo. everything that comes from it (even the ‘good’ things) is as well. #you can’t cherry pick which characters people are allowed to be critical of. you can have your faves and have the ones you dislike #but don’t act like you’re doing something noble when your sensitivity is biased. #sylph.talks

[xx-thedarklord-xx]

I was going to ask y’all if you’d be interested in me doing something but then decided you get it anyways

#Lmaoo #me #butttt #👉👈 #I’ll tell you what it is #I’m creating a BINGO card #a writer/artist/creator bingo card #it’s a VALENTINES DAY bingo card #well #mostly #but you’ll see #I’m almost done with it #hopefully people participate #any fandom is welcome #but even if it’s just me at least you’ll get new stories!

[glowsticcc]

anyway on an unrelated note i am becoming a full-time hermitcraft blog

#qsmp #glowsticcc rambles #/hj because i am gonna be getting into hermitcraft more #tell me your fave povs it’s early enough in the season i can still grind ‘em out #gotta feed the minecraft special interest somehow #but yea rip death family (no pun intended) you were awesome <3 #main reason i stayed in this fandom for a year at this point #i’ll still be around just lurkin :3 #less active than i usually am #i’m just glad of everything they got a happy ending

[ardentpoop]

they literally had no clue what a special and one-of-a-kind character they had on their hands

leagues above the rest of this show’s characters in terms of emotional depth

#not to sound like a broken record but the fact that the writers treated him like shit adds a layer to his narrative #like if he wasn’t saddled with his particular role within the restrictions of his particular universe I wonder whether he would’ve spoken #to as many sad freaks like me as he did #if he wasn’t written thru a misogynistic lens for a misogynistic audience his story may have been significantly less tragic #if he wasn’t in a story that viewed mental illness and addiction as moral failures. #if he wasn’t in a story that ultimately believed in Us vs Them and in the inherent Rightness of the nuclear family #if he wasn’t in a story that handwaved and made excuses for the abuse he suffered at the hands of his loved ones bc it was #merely a consequence of him straying from the Mission #thee singular male character that I’ll tell you is a woman and mean it in the sense that you CANNOT engage meaningfully with him without #acknowledging that his central conflicts and his defining traits and the way the fandom at large treats him are all tied up in #traditional expectations for female characters #he’s relatable if you’re a misunderstood woman and if you’re queer and if you’re a 2nd gen american #if you’ve felt lonely your whole life and if you feel like you never fit anywhere #an actually perfect character to me few others can compare #tag vomit

[nineteen-rats]

ALRIGHT, square up my beloved!

I request Crow-

HAH, no! Gotchu there, didnt I. No, not him this time. Got y'all hah.

All jokes aside, can I most humbly request smiling Arald? That man needs to be loved and appreciated and he deserves to be happy and I'd die to see him drawn by you.

This is also your reminder that you're amazing and wonderful and I can't stress that enough. Love you!

no actually this is YOUR reminder that you’re amazing and wonderful and I would die for you

(tey arald agrees)

#rangers apprentice #ranger's apprentice #i’ll draw crowley too but you have to ask nicely first #jk you could slap me in the face and stomp on me and then tell me to draw something and I’d do it #that’s a general you btw because I am this fandom’s humble servant #come stomp on me guys

[gavin-reed-is-gay]

Every time I come across Gavin hate, old or new, I always think of that meme in Trolls:

Someone: Why do you hate Gavin?

Gavin haters: BECAUSE GAVIN KILLED MY GRANDMA, OKAY?

#detroit: become human #dbh #gavin reed #I don't know #most Gavin haters just sound so stupid to me #like you can tell that their only reasons for hating Gavin is 'he hurt my fave' or 'character did bad thing so I want him to die' #I've mostly encountered adults in this fandom but most of them sound like little children #and those same people who hate him will stan some character into another fandom who has actually committed crimes #yeah I’ll say it #Gavin isn’t the nicest guy #but he's not the worst #he's fine or just eh if you don't care for his character too much #but him existing is definitely not worth people in this fandom making hating him their entire personality #mine #mine: texts #mine: dbh

[dimitrscu]

I hope this isnt rude to ask but I see you talk about ocs but do you ever write about them?

it’s not rude to ask. i do write about them only i don’t post it anywhere. from what i’ve seen people are kind of weird about non tarnished ocs and to be honest it makes me a little anxious lmao

#every fan base has shitty people but for some reason this one is just annoying as fuck #the fanfic side of this fandom is small and yet can be so very judgmental and mean #like literally for no reason #so i keep shit to myself and one of my friends who knows fuck all about elden ring and therefore won’t judge me harshly #she just nit picks my actual writing and not necessarily what i’m writing about #i feel like everyone writes a similar storyline with a few differences #and if you dare deviate from that they’ll be in you inbox telling you to kys #maybe one day I’ll be brave enough to post it #perhaps once the dlc comes out and things die down again #anon #asks

[ungaroyals]

feeling reminiscent of when I first joined the yr fandom back in August 2021. So much has changed.

#I wish I could go back and tell myself to appreciate it more #don’t get me wrong I love how big and kind the yr fandom has gotten #but there was just something so special and personal in those first 6 months that I don’t think I’ll ever experience again #istg discord was when everything went to shit 💀 #I’m happy it happened because I’ve made so many amazing friends through discord #but I could have done without the one thing that kinda almost ruined yr fandom stuff for me #if you know you know #I wish I could say I’m over it but I still thinking about it frequently enough to not be over it #crazy how one person can ruin such a good thing #anyway #it’s 2:30am and I’m exhausted rambling #delete later
