Heyyyy hiii
So I guess it's a drawing week for me i hope I don't lose motivation I really need it rn
Ya ever see a ship so any times you start to tremble with pure rage whenever you see it after searching for content about a character
One thing no one ever talks about in fandom is the pain of finding out one of your favorite ao3 authors is a total jerk. Writing a fic inspired by theirs while linking and giving credit, only for them to leave a comment insulting you and calling you weird for making a fic of their fic. Using the names they gave to unnamed canon characters (a common practice called fandom name sharing) and linking and giving credit, only for them to leave a comment calling you a plagiarist for stealing the names and threatening to send their fans after you. Finding out they have a history of doing stuff like this, and finding it practically impossible to separate your enjoyment of their work from your incredibly negative experiences with the author. Trying your best to avoid their fics as a result even though they wrote at least half of the fics of your favorite ship. True pain. Never meet your heroes kids.
