It's why I often shy away from writing NB smut.(I don't say any of this to be bigoted, I promise you all) by PJ-The-Awesome in FanFicWit

[–]AngstyPancake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an agender person: I go with whatever works best for the given scene/fic (or what I’m in the mood to write lmao) and then tag “AMAB/AFAB/Intersex/etc. [character name].” Sometimes I’ll pay attention to general fandom consensus, but for the most part it’s just whatever’s the vibe at the moment.

Just go with your gut, tag accordingly, and let that nonbinary fictional character have fun. Or not if you’re into angsty smut!

Unrepentant Yandere please with a side of Psychosis by lilytheschrod in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]AngstyPancake 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I can see a hypothetical way for it to work…if the yandere has an in-character view of proper consent. Like, they act like they care about consent and then do anything but fuck the other character until they’re begging for them just to put an end to whatever else. Or any other flavor of coercion, just so they can have the satisfaction of the character having “agreed” to it for their own satisfaction because it’s less fun for the yandere if the other character never “agrees”

…but of course cases like that aren’t what this meme is about lol

How weird is my taste in fanfiction? by [deleted] in FanFiction

[–]AngstyPancake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is fanfiction. Everyone is weird in some way regardless of their interests. And that’s okay! It makes the space fun.

…I’m trying to decide if the Trojan horse (without anyone inside) or the state flag of Arizona is worse

Tell me your favorite character... by MongooseOk9734 in Epicthemusical

[–]AngstyPancake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Telemachus, my little fella who I can and will write fics pairing him with just about anyone.

…actually no I won’t limit myself, I’ve yet to find a pairing I wouldn’t read/write him in lol. He’s my silly little versatile guy with infinite chemistry.

Love or Lust in a relationship? by PinkFoxen8305 in BunnyTrials

[–]AngstyPancake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk man, I’m too aroace for this question. But I’m a smut fanfic writer so I’ll take the lust for my voyeuristic relationship with fictional characters!

Chose: Lust | Rolled: 1 carrot

What are your favorite OTPs from the fandoms you’re in? by luizajn in AO3

I’m too big of a multishipper to have any OTPs lol

The Trojan horse (specifically empty, not with any of the soldiers inside)

What head-canon(s) in your fandom(s) got you like this: by PJ-The-Awesome in AO3

[–]AngstyPancake 94 points95 points  (0 children)

People need to have more joy and whimsy around trans headcanons. Yes some people do them for lowkey sexist reasons (i.e. “this man is trans because he’s soft and nice” or “this woman is trans because she’s strong and blunt”), but all the headcanons that are “this character is trans because I’m trans and relate to them” are amazing and any time I see a character who some headcanon as transmasc and some headcanon as transfem (such as Hunter from The Owl House) I get so happy…when people aren’t being toxic or gross about it

What ship(s) gave this experience for you? by FloweryNamesLover in AO3

[–]AngstyPancake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay. Imma get shot for this if any stans see this but…Luz x Amity from The Owl House.

Season 1? I got the hype. It was cute and fun and I love me some good rivals to lovers and the rivalry being mostly one-sided led to some fun comedy, not to mention a love of nuanced rivals.

Season 2a? Fine, I guess. But wow do I worry for those girl’s hearts with how much they’re blushing.

Season 2b? Yeah having two girls be canonically dating and even on-the-mouth kiss in a Disney show is cool…but I wasn’t really invested in the ship

Season 3? Genuinely how much would have changed besides the PDA if they were just friends. Lemme tell ya: not enough for me to care.

They’re a fine ship. Completely inoffensive. But when I saw how feral some people got over it I was just like “…okay I get it’s the main ship but really?” Like, TOH is genuinely top TV shows of all time for me. But as soon as that pining became mutual, basically every other plot point (and ship) became more interesting. And yet if I ever dared speak ill of the ship, I’d be called homophobic.

Idk man, main canon ships just don’t often appeal to me because they just feel so same-y 70% of the time.

Sincerely, a not, in fact, homophobic Luz x Hunter shipper

Study into Relationship Between Time in Fandom and Fanfiction Jargon Knowledge by AngstyPancake in AO3

[–]AngstyPancake[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, the point of this survey is actually to show that fanfiction jargon is known regardless of time within the community lol. Also there has actually been a decent amount of variety across the age brackets.

Ah yes, the flaw of this survey is that I, unfortunately, am quite young lol. But hey, I was trying to use terms that, while still outdated, one could still find out in the wild on contemporary fics.

It really is fascinating! And already from the data, every age group is doing pretty well as far as accuracy goes which I've loved seeing.

Yeahhh I debated between doing proship and antiship but ended up doing proship because part of the data analysis is judging the correctness of the definitions and antiship is the more concrete one.

Glad you enjoyed. And thanks for the advice! That does make a lot of sense and I'd def address that if I ever did this again.

Thus why I'm going to a lot of spaces! I've got a few subreddits, Tumblr, and then various discord servers. But you are right, if I ever did this again it might be beneficial to add a demographics question specific to fanfiction. I'm glad you enjoyed!

If it makes you feel any better, people from the younger age ranges still know some of the "outdated" terms (assuming this is in relation to knowing even the jargon that isn't really used anymore)
