#then there was the crossfandom ships

[krys-loves-otome]

Hello Krys~ Sending hugs!! 💕💕 I remember reading one of your old posts about how Ryou Bakura was your muse. I absolutely love the cutie (and wish they gave him a bigger role in the original plot), so I was wondering: Would you ever write a fic centered around Ryou? 👀✨

*returns the hugs* Thank you, Alby!

Ryou was indeed was one of my muses in my baby fandom days, from fic writings to RPs (Yuugi a bit too, but not nearly as much as I did Ryou back then), he's been with me for a good few years. (Even named my very first car after him because I got it on his birthday, September 2nd).

That being said, looking at my ao3 and my dreamwidth account (since that's where I put my stuff before tumblr came along), I haven't really written for Ryou since about 2014-ish? 2016 being about the last time I did anything ygo related when Arc V was airing and Dark Side of Dimensions came out, then moved onto other fandoms (Hello, my new loves Haikyuu and various mobile otomes when I got my first smartphone).

So, best I'll say is that it's unlikely, but not impossible. For a different fandom, I did a fic re-write for a fic I did in 2005 in 2010, like a draw this again challenge, but writing instead of drawing. And fictober is coming up in a few months, so that's also a possibility for a drabble. Ryou might come back for a visit, you never know!

Thanks again for the question!

Writer's Would You Ever...

#ask krys things #ask me stuff #meme thingys #boy had been living in my head since 2004 my goodness #fic wirtings and rps galore #loved cis-swapping him too #she got shipped around when I rp'd with her #favs were Atem and Thief King #also had a ball with his really good Kaiba player #then there was the crossfandom ships #like with Code Geass's Lelouch and ff7: crisis core Angeal #Cissnei too she was fun #last fic I did with him looks to either be one where Ryou's alone on christmas until the spirit and Thief King come for a visit #another seems to be a drabble collection with some Atem and Ryou shipping tiems #I'm starting to think I might have a thing for hero types with the shy types thanks to that ship #like it wasn't obvious with Naruto and Hinata before it was canon #would explain my love for Napo too #gotta love those big damn hero types #but anyway #I never rule out the possibility of writing for a fandom I haven't been in in years #specifically for the aforementioned 2005 fic rewrite in 2010 #plus my fic writing anniversary is coming up in september #could be a good time to write a Ryou bday fic #or do that write this again challenge on one of my old Ryou fics #it's always a possibility #tho if I do decide to do one it'd probably be on my not-krys account #a random ygo fic on my otome blog #lol

"When the Morning Comes" - Chapter 4

So sorry for the delay, but here is Chapter 4 of "When the Morning Comes," my DCEU Supergirl/Reevesverse Batman crossfandom fic.

Bruce Wayne has discovered the possible coordinates for a crashed ship, and he grapples with a difficult decision.

Just saw someones insanely random crossfandom ship involving Sabo and now im back on my bullshit with Zagreus/Ace

[onewomancitadel]

I also heard recently that apparently Reylos made up all of their harrassment as a cover for their racism in not shipping Finn/Rey, and to be perfectly honest with you I think racism is not a fandom-specific issue but kind of a social issue where you aren't insulated from it based on what you do or don't ship? And shipping isn't political activism? I wouldn't be granted rhetorical immunity if I did, in fact, ship Finn/Rey, because I could equally be responsible for perpetuating racism in writing their dynamic (and in addition to that, romantic relationships are not free of sexism or racism; how does this immunity hold coherently at all?) and in fact, I don't like Finn/Rey because I don't like enjoy how it services their characters. If Boyega were cast as the main villain we'd be having a different conversation.

If you wanted to reckon specifically with the ST's racism, we can start with TFA where TFA refuses to expand upon Finn's psychological evolution and turns him into a sanitation worker as a fucking dramatic punchline at the end of the film, or is unceremoniously knocked out by Kylo so he can't do anything narratively? Or just being there for bathos-esque quips? No matter what you say about TLJ, Finn's epic confrontation with Phasma and the potential of a Stormtrooper rebellion is there, and instead in TROS it's turned into... some people are just born right and others deserve to be Stormtroopers. *shrug*

That is not a fucking Reylo problem. That is, in the first place, teasing Finn as the 'main' character and then doing a reversal with Rey, and choosing to focus a new Star Wars series on the Skywalkers again. A Black Jedi with his own original story not contingent upon white legacy characters could've worked but by design it was not made so, and then they erased his character from Chinese marketing anyway. That should tell you were D/isney's priorities lie. If they actually had any gumption that is what they would've done following the ST to mop up what they did with Finn and actually got onboard original storytellers who were not looking to rehash nostalgiabait.

I'm particularly sore about this because I don't enjoy the implication that racism is a fandom-specific issue or that fandom is where the conversation starts and ends, or not that on some level these commercial productions with millions of dollars behind them influence the conversation. Or that there is a competition of socially-minded interests. Or that if we got rid of the Bad Shipping fandoms we would only have the Good Ones left with no problems forever. That's not how it works.

But inventing harrassment is an interesting accusation. We're just outright accusing each other of making up our experiences now? We're allowed to do that? I've never been 'in' the mainstream Reylo fandom enough and if there were evidence of Reylos behaving badly or, in the case of this context, being racist, I'd take it seriously as much as I can and challenge it, but I'm not sure what other authority I do have in intercommunity politics. Fandom doesn't work like that. There is only so much you can do. But accusing us of making up our experiences when I know that I personally keep to myself because of it is a new one.

I don't want to tell you the things I've seen or experienced myself in the Reylo fandom. Sure, the ceaseless crossfandom stuff is bullshit, but anti-Reylos are probably people I wouldn't get along with anyway and people can draw boundaries as they see fit. There are a bunch of ships and fandoms I don't want much to do with. I don't even think that anti-Reylos themselves are uniquely -ist in whatever given way; they probably just enjoy the opportunity to be sexist or racist or anti-Semitic against someone they think deserves it (and it always comes out when the opponent is sufficiently Of the Wrong Sort).

I think it is extremely dangerous to treat activism as a performative endeavour where I ship the right ships and interact with the text in the way I have been mandated to. Because it doesn't actually insulate me from racist behaviour or beliefs. I think it is true that there are times this notably happens, but equally, is shipping Finn/Poe alongside Rey/Kylo a way to mitigate this? How do we square it out?

I think this conversation with Reylo is probably over. Reylo's online legacy is always going to be mixed at best. But I don't think the anti-racist conversation begins or ends with it.

#if finn were a bad guy up until the end of the first film we might've been talking #kylo-finn friendship in the third film #it was possible to make work even if finn weren't the protagonist #ugh #anyway #I'm a reylo inventing harrassment to win Internet arguments <3 #not to worry I don't need to do that to win #reylo for tag blocking

hey since jota has his own thing and since 5 has her own thing would they be considered crossfandom shipping

omg they would.

[asbestieos]

i must finish persona 5. so i can feed my akemitsu crossfandom crack ship

#mitsuru enstars to reiterate (not to be confused with the persona mitsuru)

[notp-poll-showdown]

Did you, yourself, submit any ship? Was there a ship where you was like YEEESSSSS (you agree 100%) and one that you went shit that makes sense (one that you never thought about but now agrees)?

Oh I submitted 5: three that popped up on here cause they were funny, Reylo, and a crossfandom ship that was the whole reason I started this poll anyways. (I submitted that one twice, even if it didn't need it)

You guys are seriously overestimating my fandom circles. There are so many ships from so many fandoms. There is so much anime. The ratio of how much anime I've actually seen vs. how much I actually liked enough to remember are ridiculously low. There are tv dramas I didn't even know HAD fandoms, much less ones this passionate. There are video games I had to look up to see if they actually existed. I am utterly indifferent to any ships I actually recognize

#poll asks #there is a surprising amount of criminal minds fans that are really passionate about their notps #and whatever the fuck is going on with naruto and homestuck

Eye twitch. Me when people ship the two aro/ace//aroace characters i like together. Crossfandom. Eye twitch.

They would NOT HAVE A RELATIONSHIP. They need THERAPY IF ANYTHING.

This post is about jack frost x elsa i am SO RIGHT. People who ship it irrationally piss me off because. Elsa would fucking never. That is an aroace woman if ive EVER seen one. jack would MAYBE have a relationship. It depends. Im tolerable of jack ships. If you write it good and get some comfort in there ill put a thumbs up on it. Or we get a nice look in that guys head and see what makes him tick. BUT ELSA. she doesnt need a relationship. was that not like the entire point of her arcs (???)) Its been a while since i watched the movie but GUYS. CMON.

Head in hands

Me when they get my blorbos wrong.... They dont get you like i do . im special. /j but like im still right

#eye twitch #8communications #rant #i suppose

[sodapackyuri]

Please do pardon the puffery at first

So I was looking for this animation to send the hubby but there isn't one of Carlo Taunting in any forum on here that I can see shame as the Algorithm is tattletaling on my hater quite extensively. Your likes are public you porn adduct, (two can play the name calling game here)and my genepool is ruining strong. I do not regret getting a teacher who was herassing a family member of mine fired for continuing to violate his personal space after being warned three times to STOP. Oh yes; update the School decided to terminate the teacher pending complaints FROM THE TRANS STUDENT WHEN SHE FOUD OUT. Turns out the trans MtF agreed that it would be horrendous to demand my male family member just ignore his own boundaries regarding respecting your romantic partners just to date them when they themselves never asked for it. Remember kids outside of family third party consent is not a thing that is ever valued in personal affairs.

Yet I digress, you aren't here for random drama dump updates are you people. And if you are than by all means Hatters are Viciously mocked here because I have no respect for anyone who can't respect simple boundaries or have the courage to trash you to your face.

Some of you are looking at this post like WTF why is this in tags...

This is in tag because I did get in touch with the Fic writer and to spite bad weather ch:1 IS public (Here) and I will be working on some character development things also this changes my plain slightly. The Genshin crossover character thing was a joke I was half serious about but now its like ohhh but what vision would she have if she had one? THAN A BRILLIANT idea hit me...

Why not let the fandom who has tolerated my ramblings to this point get a little say eh? Fell free your more than welcome; I only bite disrespectful coward haters who are hiding behind the block button and still calling me names like spoiled children. The fic writer is totally on board with this concept and so am I. Should I do some polls for you guys and let you help deepen the development of Isabella as a crossfandom? fell free to comment below I am giving you guys an opportunity to share your creativity tell me what you think. I also will be finalizing the linework for the new icons tonight colored version will have to come much later as I have quite a few mothers day commissions to get shipped out. As for my hater yes its childish to post this stuff that's why I am doing it; to make you look like that much more of a jerk for being psychotically obsessed with pushing me form a fandom you clearly never fit into. Your entire concept of the Lies of P fandom reeks of "Tell me you have not played the game without telling me you have not played the game." Sitting there boasting about a difficulty setting WTF are you talking about its a Soulslike there is no difficulty setting... Monty Pythons Holy Grail, You are Britain I am France take your dammed L.

#out of character #roleplay #lies of p #genshin impact #fanfic in link #I have not seen a difficulty setting for lies of p to be fair #I was under the assumption its built into how you choose to play the game
