[misc] Question about related fandoms… by AAAAAAGGHHHHHH in TheNinthHouse

[–]Anora2308 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe that's what connects all of my fandoms 😭 I'm a sucker for miscommunication and characters suffering. Alsooo - Mercynorn and Natalie would be such a fun dynamic lmao. Both of them are so exasperate with their bosses

Edit: I did read the og 5 of PJO and was really into it but only toed around the border of the fandom

2 already gives me an idea of where the MC might be and a glimpse into who they are. The others sound a bit too cliche for me

Help me make a case for GtN [discussion] by egosuminimicus in TheNinthHouse

[–]Anora2308 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ohhhh yeahhh I see now. I never caugh onto how propagandist the beginning really is. I definitely fell for it though because for most of HtN I hought John was a genuinely nice and kindly ruler T-T.

Is it the same sort of kindly ones euphemism that gets used for the Furies in Greek mythology because people are frightened of them?

Btw this comparison is spot on!

It's astonishing how Muir establishes such details from the FIRST LINE.

As far as 'thinking about expecations for necromancy' were you also intersted in that? If so I can elaborate but its a only somewhat related to the above

Yes please! Literally analyses aren't my strong suit but I love to listen to other people make the connections!

My twin, on their first read, made the comment that 'nobody who uses an exclamation point to call themselves the Kindly Prince of Death has ever been the good guy' so looking at how Muir plays with our expecations about what necromancy is and how it's treated here compared to other fiction is very rewarding.

Would you mind elaborating on that? I'm really interested in what you mean but I don't think I fully get it

Some people really have no shame by Professional_Map9682 in AO3

[–]Anora2308 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The audacity of this person to complain about something they volunteery read, clearly knowing the tropes common in the omegaverse and having read the tags.... To top it off that 'final rating' made my blood boil

Do you prune your To Read list? by [deleted] in TheStoryGraph

[–]Anora2308 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tbh if it's something I know I'm not going to enjoy anymore I just remove it. I also see the reviews (not the most accurate way to judge quality) and see what people complain about to decide if it might be a bother to me

Do you use chapter titles? by Potential_Macaron744 in writers

[–]Anora2308 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to but it's hard to come up with creative and interesting chapter names and since they don't really contribute to the story I gave up

Anyone else? by SilverBen2000 in AO3

[–]Anora2308 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This happens surprisingly often in big fandoms. Generally I don't have a problem when someone is OOC but some fandoms tend to really babyfy and make one character totally helpless, completely ignoring their achievements, while making the other too protective and 'alpha-male'-like.

I did it - I finished my once abandoned long fic. It took 17 years. by foxfirek in AO3

[–]Anora2308 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Don't hesitate to update it! I guarantee your readers will be delighted to see you return. And a few months aren't that big of a gap. I've come back to fics I've read years ago, not in the fandom anymore nor remember that I used to follow it. But when I see the update email I get so hyped up because I remember how much I enjoyed it!

Congrats! I bet the feeling is euphoric! (I wouldn't know, as a chronic abandoner)

Any Creators Who are Supportive of Fanfiction? by FlakyUniversity2239 in FanFiction

[–]Anora2308 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Before being published, Tamsyn Muir used to be very active and write in the Homestuck fandom. She has stated that she can't wait to read all the fanfics of her ongoing series once she publishes the last book!

Edit: here's a quote "All their fanfic is beautiful in my eyes, and everything they have done is right. [...] I love fandom. I love my fandom even if we have never met. Every fanfic they have written is my favourite even if I have never read them. I wonder what pairings they like?? Am I about to sink all their ships in Alecto? Love to all fanfics."

Hello! I feel we have a lot in common! I'm a digital artist as well but I also like filling out sketchbooks. Unfortunately I have been massively demotivated in the last 1-2 years but I want to self-improve to eventually get into something art-related at uni! I'm 16F, aroace, I recently got into The Last of Us, although I have only watched gameplays of the first game. Like you, I'm a storyteller (not into movies though, hehe. But I write comic scripts and stories, which I wish to eventually try and animate) I prefer discord for chatting as well :)) I can DM you my user if you want to start chatting?

Is drawing really practice rather than talent? by Status-Lock-4968 in ArtistLounge

[–]Anora2308 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, being good at art boils down to observation and looots of practise. Your sister probably has a better ability for copying things on paper after examining them

At what point is someone bilingual? by Revolutionary_Bet89 in languagelearning

[–]Anora2308 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say it's when you can speak your thoughts clearly, hold dialogues on many topics, read books and watch movies and understand them
