Introducing: Reblog Controls

Introducing: Reblog Controls

This is not a drill, repeat, this is not a drill—we are rolling out reblog controls across web and iOS, starting today. 

How does it work?

When drafting a post, select the settings cog in the top right corner of your post editor. From here, you can choose one of two options.

“Anyone (on Tumblr)” means just that.

“No one” means that your post cannot be reblogged by anyone, ever.

Why?

Your wish is our command. Many of you have told us this feature would give you a welcome sense of safety. If you block someone after the post was made, don’t worry—they still can’t reblog it. This change gives you control over your own posts, and so will improve your posting experience. Ultimately, better posting means a better Tumblr. And finally, don’t worry, Android users. The feature will follow on your platform soon.

That’s all, folks. Happy reblogging!

Any questions? Drop us a line on @wip or Support, and keep an eye out for the mobile rollout on @changes.

Chapter 1 - Trap Detection

“What the hell are you reading that for?”

Steve glances up as Robin leans over the counter to look at the cover of Kali’s book.

“Not that it’s your business, but I’m studying it in class and I thought I could do with some more in-depth reading-”

Robin reaches out and yanks the book from Kali’s hands, tossing it over her shoulder and into the trash, “Bleh, yuck,” she shares a disgusted look with Steve, or tries to, because he just shrugs in response.

“I’d appreciate you not damaging my property, thank you,” Kali says and fishes the book back out, “And what’s it to you? What have you got against soulmates?”

“Got to say, I’m not a fan of delusional crap like that. It’s like horoscopes, right? It’s all made up.”

Kali laughs, “You think it’s made up?”

“I know it is,” she says back, “It’s all bullshit stuff made up to get you to buy crappy books like that one.”

“And all the movies? All the literature? Classical art and plays based around soulmates? Romeo and Juliet?”

“Come on, Kali, don’t tell me you actually buy into this shit.”

Kali shakes her head, “I suppose you think that Jane being able to locate people is also bullshit? Or how about the Upside Down? Or /my/ abilities? You’ve seen it all yourself.”

“Yeah but that’s different.”

“Is not.”

“It is, because I’ve actually seen it for myself.”

“Fifty percent of the human population sees their soulmate strings, as well as /others/, and you really don’t believe it?”

Robin rolls her eyes, nudging Steve, “What about you? You believe in soulmates?”

Steve shrugs again, “I mean… yeah.”

Robin laughs, dropping back into hysterics and then collecting herself when she realizes he’s not laughing with her, “Wait, are you serious?”

“Well, yeah.”

“Well, you’re an idiot.”

“I am,” Steve agrees easily, smiling sadly back at her, “But I can also see my soul strings, so… of course I believe in it.”

Robin sobers entirely at that, “Wait, what?”

“I believe it’s real.”

Summary: Now that he’s out of the Upside Down, Steve has to deal with the changes his body experienced over the last five years, and what it means for his growing relationship with Jonathan and Nancy.

Chapter 1 - January 5th, 1987

He knows it’s getting late when the bartender makes the call for the last round, but he still pushes off going home as long as he can after, ordering one more drink while he still can and sipping slowly on it as the bar empties out until it’s just him left.

“Need a ride home?” the guy behind the bar asks as he wipes down the counter.

He’s been giving Steve bedroom eyes all night and… it’s tempting, it really is, but he just can’t find it in him to bridge that gap. He meets the guy’s eyes and stands abruptly when he winks at Steve.

“Oh, no, thank you, I can-… I can get home on my own, thanks,” he clears his throat, tossing a stack of dollar bills onto the counter and walking away, “Thanks for the drinks, keep the tip.”

Hey I've just finished reading The Poetry Killer and see that the next part is unfinished. Have you abandoned this fic or do you think you'll continue it one day? The first two parts are so incredibly good I think I could read stories for this 'verse forever :)

The final part of it isn’t complete but it does kind of.... have a sort of semi-conclusive last chapter that I posted. I want to fully complete it, maybe one day.
