"no Spam Liking" Stfu That's How I Know My Mutuals Are Alive Smh

"no spam liking" stfu that's how i know my mutuals are alive smh

my dream as a fanfic writer is to write a story which people want to talk to me about and send asks about afterwards and discuss things the characters did and the symbolism and meanings behind certain lines and I'll be all "hehe thanks" but irl I'll be in literal tears because I wrote something that means something to someone

things that always make me happy: serial commenters. there are three types

1) reading a longfic chapter by chapter, leaving an increasingly emotional comment on every chapter, descends into keysmashes near the end: outstanding

2) read one fic by accident, clicked the author name, now working steadily through the backlog and commenting on everything, I wake up to an AO3 inbox full of enthusiasm: precious beyond words

3) the longterm serial commenter whose comment begins with I don’t even know this fandom but because they have followed me from somewhere else: stunning. humbling. magical.

Google: Okay, so you’ve now searched slang terms for various poker hands, Stith Thompson’s Motif Index of Folk Literature, and “revolver gun types.”

Me: Yup. You forgot me looking up the canon heights of a bunch of different RWBY characters.

Google: …should I be concerned?

Me: No, no - I just want my fanfic about this fantasy world full of reality bending superpowers to be as accurate as possible and contain all the neurotically obscure references I can possibly squeeze in.

DONT BE AFRAID TO COMMENT ON OLD FICS DONT BE AFRAID TO COMMENT ON FICS IN A FANDOM THE AUTHOR MAY NO LONGER BE ACTIVE IN. IF THE STORY IS STILL UP LET THEM KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS IT MIGHT JUST BE THE REMINDER THAT MAKES THEIR DAY.

SINCERELY SOMEONE WHO JUST GOT A REPLY THAT MADE ME WANNA MAKE THIS POST
