I Apparently Dont Pay Enough Attention To Most Of My Characters. That, Or Something Went Wrong In The

I apparently don’t pay enough attention to most of my characters. That, or something went wrong in the creative process.

Bella, Zach, Freddie (fair, I give way too much attention to non canonical characters) and Fera (:0 my sweetheart???) all got:

people don't care about this character enough:(( most fans completely gloss over this character and are obsessed with another character. even if this character is well written and has a cool plot :(( smh these fans need to pay attention to this character :(((

Victor-Hecate

people will not shut up about how they deserve better this character went though a lot and fans are BITTER they write a crazy amount of fix it fics and just generally talk about how the character deserves way better.

Yeah. Yeah, that’s fair. I’m really not nice to them. But it’s just so fun writing angst! And they’re my favourite (besides Fera) so they’re subjected to more sad than everyone else.

tumblr segc man :(( im so sorry. but your character has an entire fandom that is h word for them. its terrifying. people would probably pay money for you to make an entire movie about that character so they can write fanfiction about them. not that they need the movie, they already have loads of fanfic.

I mean, if I gave her more attention, people would probably realise how cool she was. I’d like to see a movie about her and Fera. And how she would absolutely dominate misogynistic people in the work place. She’s not taking any bs

OC Vibe Check Quiz

The OG post was very long so here's a new one 😂 @harps-for-days tagged me in this hilarious quiz and I just could not resist. Since I have 7 main characters I only did three, but here are their results 🙃

Yes, okay, I know he's the only straight white boy, I get it. I know that's the reason but he is a very fucking hard character to "gloss over" I can promise you that 😂

I- no comment. That's accurate. I hope this proves true 😌

if you’re ever about to comment on a writer’s work and think, oh, they probably know how good they are, you’re definitely wrong. every time a writer posts or publishes anything, no matter how many years they’ve been doing it and no matter how many readers they have, they are struck with the idea that perhaps they aren’t very good at all.

if you think you’re annoying for commenting, or that we won’t see your comments anyway, you’re wrong. we see your comments. we actively look for them. we are starved for them no matter how many we get. we remember them and they fuel us. leave comments, even if it’s just saying “oh i like this”. i see an “oh i like this” and my heart grows three times its size and i am seized with an urge to provide you more writing just to hear you say “oh i like this” again.

yeah, I can help! I'm not a professional by any means, but I have ADHD and have done a lot of research. Plus, my sleep schedule is terrible, so I should be able to get back to you if you message me at crazy hours

Hang on, you guys PLAN your stories? You PLAN character arcs?

Bro I just realised my oc was adhd this morning while I was reading an adhd post and then I was like "Hmm I should have him checked out because I'm pretty sure this gits him to a T" before i realised he's fictional and there is no possible way I can access a doctor and have them speak to him 😭😭😭

If anyone is willing to fact check him so there's no misrepresentation lemme know. Note Note I will text you at the oddest of hours and I tend to go off track a lot and I start convos without hi or anything... like now... I'm doing it now aren't I?

Sometimes your relationship with a label is more complex than "I identify with this" or "I don't identify with this" and that's fine!

"I sometimes identify with this" is fine!

"I partially identify with this" is fine!

"I don't really refer to myself this way, but I do feel included when people talk about it" is fine!

"I use this for the sake of ease even though it doesn't fit 100% 'cause I haven't found anything better yet" is fine!

"I use it 'cause it may not describe my feelings, but it does a good job of explaining how people perceive me" is fine!

"It's the closest fit when trying to find a community of people that face the same problems I do" is fine!

People are complex, your experiences don't need to neatly fit into "100% this label" or "definitely not this label". If you have a complex relationship with one or more labels, that's completely fair and I hope you have a great day.
