Fanfiction Conveniently Exists For Writing "that Other Story/ending/setting" You'd Like To See Happen,

Fanfiction conveniently exists for writing "that other story/ending/setting" you'd like to see happen, or are curious how the scenario would turn out if you tweaked a detail... or three... or all of it and dive hard into AU lands...

Remembering that the "original canon story" is someone elses' story baby they all worked hard to make, and it's cool they get to share it with us, I think helps a lot.

I really only scream in a fandom if the screen-writing took some really terrible turn like, didn't even make *sense* or something. And that's critique on the skill of storytelling itself, rather than a hate for the story. Rip my heart out and throw it on the theatre floor with heartbreaking feels, sure; a story making me feel so strongly is a mark of skilled storytelling.

Make me frustrated because the writing itself didn't make sense and broke immersion of said story, and you'll probably never get me out of the realm of fanfiction for that show again.

Please reblog if you're here for the story.

I watch The Bad Batch as an exploration of the beginning of the Empire from the perspective of a group of fugitives trying to get by in a galaxy that doesn't always make sense.

I'm here for their story.

I'm here for WHATEVER the writers, artists, and composers give us in their own good time. I want the plot to be given to me slowly. I want a character's redemption or further fall to have so much meat to it that I sit back and think, "Wow. They went through hell to get here."

I want to find out what makes the characters tick one morsel at a time, and I'm NOT going to complain about where the writers take them if it's not what I envisioned for them because it's the story.

Honestly, I'm finding this fandom to be a tedious place lately. A lot of people only seem to enjoy the show if they are given exactly what they want by the writers and the moment the show deviates from that, they complain.

I'm here for the story. Please reblog this or leave me a comment if you are too because I want to surround myself with other fans who are here for the Batch's story in whatever direction it takes us.

Me ranting about the Clone Wars again: "I mean, the Separatists had no idea that Palpatine's floozies were running things! Wait .... Flunkies! I meant flunkies! Lackeys! Minions!"

My husband: Ah yes, his floozies. Tarkin and Dooku, those slutty slutty bitches.

legit

some of my best stories / roleplay plots have come about from jokes that then happened.

"Hahahah what if our two elves vying for the crown and about to have to decide to kill one another are actually long lost siblings"

"hahahah--wait. Wait but that's PERFECT--"

thinking "haha what if i jokingly shipped them" is your last chance to get out btw

I'm probably missing so many good ones but y'all feel free to reblog with any I missed!

Favourite thing you've drawn/doodled and/or written?

Honestly, this, because I had FUN painting it. My art teacher in school used to (jokingly) reprimand me for being too strategic, and so I loosened up.

You know it's not even the smile

it's the eyes

there's something fucked up about his eyes and I'm not even sure what it is but it's driving me mad
