did everyone magically remember atla exists in march

(and again i'm late but that's not anything new)

I swore to myself never to post a fic without finishing it to avoid the absolute trainwreck that is forward to the future and Lan Wangjis wife, Alive? Or dead?

And yet here I am. A year later posting 8 Years Later without finishing it ....

it's probably not e x a c t l y what happened

but the idea of hua cheng having yin yu AND he xuan working on the 3,000 lanterns for xie lian is the best headcanon ever

PSA: bot comments are taking over ao3

The above examples have been provided with the authors' permission to demonstrate what these look like.

Basic rundown:

They are all 3 sentences long

Perfect grammar, capitalization, and punctuation

Like absolutely flawless English teacher-style writing with only a single exclamation mark, ever

No mentions whatsoever of character names, settings, situations, or anything that could be tied to the story

The usernames may be identical to people who exist on ao3, but the name is not clickable, and no profile is associated with it EXCEPT when you directly search for that name. What this means: the comments come from an unregistered (not logged in) reader, bots scrape the site for real usernames, attach that to the comment, and post

Please spread the word about this so authors can filter comments and report them accordingly

There has been some speculation about why this is happening at all, and the best guess is that this is a feature that AI-training story-scraping tools are implementing to try and make their browsing traffic look legitimate

:-P
