MDZS Gender Fuckery Prompt Meme

This prompt meme is a place to put prompts which, to some degree, include gender fuckery.

This round will be open for prompts until October 25th, 2024.

🌟 What counts as gender fuckery?

For the purposes of this collection, gender fuckery can include: cisswaps, trans, nonbinary, genderqueer, genderfluid, gender questioning, crossdressing, drag queens/kings, exploring gender expression, etc. In omegaverse works, bitching/studding, hiding their secondary gender, or (for example) situations like alpha!WWX being resurrected in omega!MXY's body, etc, also count.

Prompts/fills will not be deleted for not "counting" as gender fuckery, barring exceptional circumstances.

🌟 Are there are limits on what we can prompt?

As long as you properly tag your prompts, this prompt meme will welcome any ships, tropes, kinks, etc. However, this prompt meme is only for fictional characters -- prompts including the cast of CQL will be deleted.

Prompts with ship or kinkshaming, or queer/transphobia will be deleted.

🌟 Where can we sign up?

the truth is…..so many new ao3 users want ao3 to be something it isn’t.

just use tumblr, babes. stop trying to blog and create “algorithms” on what is essentially a library catalog.

#end rant #sorry #just #it’s an ARCHIVE #it’s in the NAME #it’s not a social media platform #and smart creators use social media platforms to link to their works #ao3 #archive of our own #fandom #writing #reading

[insanitysilver]

I wish more fanartists would put their work on AO3. Just followed an artist who organizes their work by making a series for Fandom X, and within that, they have multi-chapter works for different ships & gen. Every new chapter is just their latest image for that subject.

It's been so delightful not to have to wade through social media algorithms and endless ads.

#and this set up is brilliant bc I can follow them for ALL their work OR just their Fandom X work OR just their Ship X work #i recognize the platform is not optimized for it #and you have to host images offsite which is a major pain (but understandable from AO3's perspective) #but god is it nice to get an email and click through and see it w/o being advertised to

reminder/tip, particularly for newer pjo fans: do not crosstag!

for those who don't know, crosstagging is tagging irrelevant tags on a post, usually popular tags to try and get more views on the post.

Tumblr doesn't work the same way instagram or tiktok or twitter does. Crosstagging is considered spam, and your blog will be flagged if you do this.

particularly in pjo fandom, crosstagging includes tagging characters that don't actually appear in the post, tagging books or series unrelated to the post (like tagging "TSATS" on a post not specifically about TSATS, or tagging HoO on a post about first series specifically, etc.), tagging "pjo fanfic" or "pjo headcanon" or similar on a post that, obviously, isn't that, and/or tagging irrelevant ships. More recently, this also includes tagging the show (PJO TV, etc) on posts that are completely irrelevant to the show.

This mostly only applies for original posts - Tags you put on reblogs only apply to your own blog's organizational system, and has no bearing on the original post itself. But it's really annoying to the original poster if you spam tags, because it will appear in their notifs. It's pointless to spam tags in reblogs for these reasons regardless, so it's best not to.

just remember: crosstagging is not allowed on tumblr, doesn't work that way here anyways, and is just generally rude. so don't do it.

#pjo #riordanverse #percy jackson #< pretty much the only character tag that's okay to put on most pjo posts #because it's also the series name #though personally for this blog i just use ''riordanverse'' and ''pjo'' and my general main tags #also. don't. crosstag on ao3. ao3 doesnt have an algorithm or anything. it's an *archive.* #crosstagging/tagging just for visibility is against ao3 policies and pointless to begin with #and please do not censor tags on ao3 or tumblr. particularly content warnings #there is no shadowban system on either platform. all it does is make it harder for people who actually need those warnings #and are trying to not see them. because they will not have blocked the exact censoring of that phrase you decided to use

do you ever just finish reading one of those fics that have you staring at the ceiling in silence because you can't comprehend that you got to read something that is nothing short of a masterpiece and FOR FREE ??? god bless you writers you truly make the world a better place

#and god bless the creators of ao3 #for giving us this platform #ao3 #fanfiction #i am just speechless after just finishing this one fic #no words for it it's STUNNING i want it published #i can't believe people sit there and write 50k+ words for free

[ao3-shenanigans]

In regards to the post I had rebloged regarding tagging fics properly, I apologize.

I do not agree with the beliefs of the original poster regarding trans people and had not intended that to be the take-away or so to speak of the post

Thank you for those who so kindly pointed out my mistake

For context:

I had initially rebloged a post wherein op made comment that people should properly tag fics for sensitive content; they original poster had also unfortunately included a line saying that ‘as a vagina is a female organ’ one should tag the m/m, m/f or f/f as such.

I had rebloged this saying that, while I disagree with the last point, tagging is important and please remember to tag your fics properly

I honestly shouldn’t have given platform to this individual by spreading this post, even with the addition and that is on me

This was kindly pointed to me and as such I’ve decided to remove it and not spread nonsense where it doesn’t need to be

Thank you all for bearing with me as I am, in some regards, new to this

#I did decide to delete the post in the end #no reason to give it more platform I decided #i apologize #ao3 shenanigans

[scummy-writes]

I will not be leaving tumblr because. There is literally no other good site for posting writing that also promises interaction with others. Stuck here until it crashes and burns, I guess.

#scum talks #ffnet and then DA and then xyz website #i wish there was another platform that promis3d the same type of engagement as tumblr but there Isnt. #you cant post fullfics in twitter. thats hit the bucket too. the starter websites are also not good for written word #i post full fanfics onto ao3 because posting anything other than that is greatly discouraged on there #and it gets less interaction than tumblr does because people...just dont comment anymore I guess? #sigh #i am so tired

[under-your-bed-not-in-it]

the best part about reading wenclair werewolf soulmate au’s is when enid just starts describing what wednesday’s scent is and it’s different every fanfic. i just imagine that’s what the authors think wednesday smells like and i just die every time.

ah yes, the goth smells like pine in one, dead roses in the next then something so victorian gothic like pen ink and old books and i thrive off these descriptions.

shoutout to these authors, i love you.

[ 3tan10 ] updates and what to know!

new drop date: friday, june 9th🍊 even though i got a lot done, this will give me extra time to truly sit with it and edit without rushing, giving you a much better final result<3 for those of you enjoying his concert that day, this could be a nice dessert for after! not only am i more comfortable with this release date, the extra time also means extra words.

new word count estimate: 18-20k :’))

what to expect: a lot. like a lot. so if you’re the type that likes to be organized with commentary, this one is gonna be like forfeit so you may need to take notes while you go through it!

what else to expect: this might get hit with a Mature community label, so make sure you have your Community Label Settings set to Show instead of Hide (needs to be fixed on desktop, Account Settings.) if you have yours on the default settings, any posts labeled Mature won’t even exist for you.

💌 note: thank you for being understanding and patient while i get through the final stretch! i know it’s been a long time coming but i am fighting to make the wait worth it. consider this busted chapter a whole instead of one part, and another one i’m pouring myself into❤️‍🩹

thank you all and see you on (the new) drop day!!🥳

#thank y’all for making me comfortable enough to postpone like this #it truly means a lot and i appreciate it heavily #i’ll also upload the missing chapters to ao3 before this release #and release busted on both platforms! #maybe I should update wattpad too lol #*ryenfictalk #3tanotes #3tan10

Day 1: Below and Above

We walk down stone steps into the darkness, lit only by the torch in Zelda's hand. I feel awake for the first time in years. It's only here, heading into the unknown, that I realise some part of me has been asleep since we defeated Calamity Ganon. That thrumming in my veins, the low buzz in my ears as our footsteps resound against stone, wisps of Gloom around us. The Princess walks with purpose. I circle her tightly, trying to guard her from every side. She would have protested, once. Now she knows what manner of thing her Swordsman protects her from.

We find murals of ancient conflict. Zelda drinks in these hints at ancient knowledge, but something about them sets my skin alight. I can barely hear her, so focused on any hint of danger. The Demon King. The Imprisoning War. History. Stories. She’s delighted by how much knowledge she’s uncovering about the distant past. Somehow it doesn’t feel so distant to me, but I can’t explain it to her. I just wait, and follow.

The tunnel opens up into another chamber, wide and deep and dark, and something in me recognises this room. I reach for the Princess, but it’s already too late. The thing at the centre is moving.

A husk of a man, all tendons and muscles and no skin at all. But those eyes that shoot to us, to her. He shudders up from his splayed position. Was the green hand holding him in place, or sustaining him? There’s no time to work it out. The Princess picks up the stone, and I wish just once she would stop being a scholar long enough to keep her safe.

He speaks, and it means nothing but malice. He knows us. He knows her. He lashes out and I swing the Master Sword, relieved at last to unleash that thrum of unease into action. The sword shatters in the face of him. It can’t. It shouldn’t. It has. A fragment catches what would be his cheek, and his blood boils outwards. He’s reaching up, past the stone above. The castle. So much fought for, so much rebuilt, and it’s all vulnerable to this unseen threat below. As his power crawls up through the stone I feel the burning pain in my sword arm.

The ground shudders and cracks. I reach for her. It’s all I’ve ever known to do. Her hand stretches for mine as she falls away from me into darkness.

And then, light. 

Another hand grasps mine. It's the last thing I know.

I wake somewhere else. Another enclosed space, but soft golden light instead of that sinister red. The Princess is gone. My hair is longer than it was – please, it can’t have happened again. I failed to protect her once before, and slept for 100 years before I could free her from the darkness of the Calamity. My arm… it’s strange to me. Dark green and longer nails and wrapped in strange jewellery. 

That voice… could it be the voice of the creature? But no… he says he gave me his arm. Replaced it, just like that. I listen to him mechanically - Rauru. He knows Zelda. 

This place feels old but untended, the vines thick and ancient. I carry the remnants of the Sword, useless now. Corruption scars its surface as it ruined my arm. 

The consoles, the blue teleportation site, the machinery - it reminds me of Sheikah tech, but it’s different. When am I? The designs are strange, the green light unfamiliar. 

I know I’m being reckless, jumping without a paraglider. But the instinct doesn’t lead me to harm - and I find trousers, which is a relief. 

I'm above the clouds. Floating islands... Zelda said the Zonai came from the sky. I can see the Gerudo Highlands, Death Mountain - erupting. This is Hyrule. But it’s changed, I’m sure of it. How long was I asleep? These ruins are old. Have I slept another hundred years? I can't have left my Princess for so long again.

Time to jump.

This place is quiet and strange. Some of the constructs attack, some speak to me with kindness and melancholy.

One of the peaceful ones, a Steward says the Princess left the Purah Pad for me. She was here? How long ago? Is this where the light took her? The construct says she's waiting for me. I can't keep her waiting. I swore never to do that again. 

The sky darkens as I explore this island. These constructs have just... been left. They're so old. Everything they were built for is gone. I know how that feels, though they don't seem to. What does that mean for me - have I slept so long that I’ve missed the rise and fall of a civilisation? 

The Stewards’ patience touches me. Rauru's sadness at the last vestige of his people touches me. Wherever I am, it's so old. Is this what comes after Hyrule? Or… what came before? And where is Zelda?

Genuinely think the cowards that don’t support OTW/AO3, should not be fucking reading fics on there. Like, your morals are so weak, you can’t even stop yourself from reading free fic. Pathetic.
