Aaaa You Are So Kind!! Im So Happy To Support Your Work And Send You Stupid Memes. I Look Forward To

Aaaa you are so kind!! I’m so happy to support your work and send you stupid memes. I look forward to being utterly destroyed by whatever you have planned in August Happy Agust 🤣

Hi it's me, your favorite demon sailor scout. I recently hit another follower milestone and I want to take a second to wax poetic about how grateful I am to have all of you here! I am not doing a milestone event for this celebration because I am in the works of setting up Hali's Happy Agust, but I wanted to give some thanks.

First and foremost: thank you to everyone who follows me. Whether you are a silent reader or someone who comments/reblogs/chats often - you are so appreciated and you make my day in whatever context you exist in this blog space. I hope you remain happy and healthy.

Second: I am very blessed and happy to be here. Writing in this community has given me more than I ever thought that it would. I have met the most outstanding people, some of which will be my best friends for life. Writing has always been my greatest love, and it means the world to me that I do it in a space with so many wonderful readers and writers. Being here has turned my life around for the better in so many ways.

Third: The road on Tumblr has not always been very easy. I have seen a lot of terrible things come across my dash and within this community over the last few months, and a lot of toxicity and time spent in the negative spaces of this fandom. I encourage everyone to choose kindness, to block when you're uncomfortable, to cultivate real and honest friendships, and to say kind things to others as often as you are able.

I want to give a special thanks to the following people who are readers and writers who have made me feel loved, seen and supported on this sight - I don't talk to all of you every day but you have made a huge impact in my experience here:

Fandom is not an obligation.

It is not a job.  It is not school.  It is not a contract.   Participation in fandom is voluntary and it is not binding (commissions and paid work aside).

Yes, within fandom you should be bound by some sense of ethics or general decency: don’t steal art and fic, don’t willfully deceive people, don’t be a jerk or a garbage human, and so on and so forth.  But everything else?  The writing fic and the doing and the participation?  It is voluntary.

So if you are writing a fic and you’re seven chapters in and you have eight chapters to go and you’re just tired and you don’t want to do it any more?  You can stop.  If you’ve been running a blog and writing about every single episode of every new anime show that’s come out and you can’t for three weeks?  Don’t.  If you told your 5 billion followers you were gonna post a piece of fanart and you’re just sick of it and you don’t want to do it any more?  Give it up.

Sure, people will be disappointed and upset and some will complain.  But life is disappointing and upsetting sometimes, and it goes on, and no one can sue you for not finishing a fic that they were enjoying the hell out of for free.  No one can accuse you of not living up to the terms of your contract when you don’t post that fanart you mentioned three weeks ago.  Because fandom is voluntary.  It’s something that you participate in because it’s fun or fulfilling or important to you, and when it stops being those things, you should stop, too.

You are not bound by the asks in your inbox.  You are not bound by comments on a fic or a piece of art.  You are not bound, in fandom, by other people’s disappointments or their expectations. 

Fandom is voluntary.  Don’t let people pressure you into thinking that it is anything else.

Goddamnit Namjoon 😩😩😩 Shirtless AND WORKING OUT??? ON VIDEO???? How am I meant to live???

WHY IS HE WORKING OUT SHIRTLESS SOMEONE CALL GOD

Stigma, Singularity, and Love Me Again all sit at the same table. I love the simplicity of the melody mixed with the soulfulness of the lyrics.

Also who hurt him? We need to talk….

Oh my god. I’m glad this is just a teaser today so I can have time to properly prepare my brain for this fic’s release because this is gonna wreck me, I just know it 😩

okay just one more Elemental teaser:

"And whose fault is that?" he murmurs, nipping your ear.

"Excuse me that I didn't want to drown your bedroom."

"Baby." He laughs softly. "The only way I want you in my bedroom is soaking wet."

Rewatching one of my favorite anime/manga series from when I was in college, Kimi No Todoke, for the first time in over 10 years, and oh my god it’s now making sense why the happy, sweet sunshine kind of boy is my type 🤣🤣🤣
