"Come On Barbie"

"Come on Barbie—🎶"

A commission I finished for @fckinghunt !! This was fun because it’s skk lol

‘What song do you think Chuuya is blasting?

...Is that Mc..?

...Thank you for making this, I'm crying. (under medication and slowly deteriorating because of school work. This is NOT a joke.)

What if... someone kills him and then immediately k!lls themselves? What's he gonna do then?? Spawn from his brethren (his rat army)?!

this bastard doesn’t deserve bram’s cunty look someone get him back in his ugly ass rat bastard outfit

I try my best to do this because it's really discouraging to just see a bunch of likes with very few comments and reblogs... It's like I didn't make enough of an impact or I didn't do a good enough job on the story and that's why barely anyone says anything.. Even random rambling or keyboard mashes is enough, I just wanna see if you've really read and appreciated my work. Not just stumbled into it and 'liked' it to bookmark it before ultimately forgetting about it.

Please, interact with the authors of the fanfics you love. It makes us really happy and encourages us to make more.

IMPORTANT PSA

I told ao3, so now I'm here to tell you all.

I do see your comments and your reblogs, but I don't always respond. I try, but sometimes life just gets in the way or I completely forget for days or weeks. Sometimes, by the time I actually remember or see the comment, it's disrespectful to even respond because it's so late.

There is no such time as too late to respond to comments and reblogs. It may take a while, but most people, I've found, are pretty understanding. At least, that's what I've seen while reading comments on other stories.

Fandom culture is, for some reason, falling back onto this theory that everyone just knows what everyone else is thinking and it's sad. Interaction between everyone who creates and consumes is falling quickly and steadily.

Artists of all kinds are getting kicked in the ass because of the rise of AI creations. We're being kicked while we're down because people are seeing our stuff, we know they are, but they're not communicating with us.

I can guarantee that commenting and rebloging and tagging will motivate artists much more than you think.

I've heard stories (one of them my own) of people giving up on stories or whole art pieces because people weren't communicating or interacting with them.

I've heard stories where people have picked up pieces that they hadn't touched in years because someone commented on their work.

Fandom Culture has become less of a community and more of a consumer base. It's disappointing, to say the least.

I was born in 2004 and raised on old fandoms and fandom culture. I didn't jump into it until 2017, but even then was so much better to post and write because people were leaving comments about their favorite parts or compliments and keyboard smashes.

New people coming into fandom culture aren't getting the true experience that a lot of us grew up on and in. They're coming into a place closer to window shopping than an actual library.

2020 was largely the cause of this when huge amounts of people entered fandom culture because there was nothing else for them to do. But they're not all to blame. We didn't do a good enough job teaching them the proper etiquette. But it's not too late.

Lesson number one is to comment. Never post a hate comment and never give critique unless it's asked for.

If this is not what actually happens I will hunt down Asagiri.

My toxic trait is thinking Bram Stoker is alive and thriving after being sort-of definitely body snatched and replaced by Fyodor Dostoevsky

How could Asagiri do this to Aya😭😭😭

Bram finally got freedom back what the hell is this😭😭😭

sorry in advance to the classic lit enjoyers who are in fact not reading/watching BSD
