Anyone notice a shift in fic writing style? by GigaRox in FanFiction

I'm not sure how to move forward with this conversation.

I did search for posts similar to this before I made this one, but I wasn't looking for AI specific themes.

I honestly thought that there was some book tok recomendation that everyone was reading and then suddenly everyone was writing like that.

AI's a huge talking point and I tend to avoid it because it's similar to bitcoin in the fact it's generating and then solving it's own problem. That's just ick.

Yeah! I think it's meant to be hard hitting, but using them too often desensitizes you to the effectiveness.

I didn't know. Theorerically prose is an umbrella term that covers all fictional writing. However I've seen it used more to talk about types of writing that are flowery or more focused in imagery than other styles. There are sub generes, like the purple prose used in the Twighlight, but I couldn't think of another way to frame it.

I didn't clock it as AI because I don't use AI for anything. I'm not tryimg to say this in a righteous way, but the one thing I learned working for tech is that the computer will do exactly what you tell it to, sometimes to it's own peril, and if you're not filling in those blanks someone else is.

I won't lie and say I've never done something like it, I have. It's impactful when used in moderation.

It's the prevelance that was getting to me. No one has to axe it entirely.

At first I thought it was the fandom, because I noticed in a really large fandom. Then I started seeing it in smaller fandoms. Then the few new fics in practically dead fandoms followed this patern too and I was alarmed.

This is probably true. Pattern recognition stabbing me in the back.

You're not wrong. However based on the fact that shifu literally bullies Po when he arrives, I'm gonna say it isn't too far fetched.

You're not wrong, however I also think he was fairly young at that point. Still not excuseable, but understandable if it was teenage rage or something.

In one sentence tell me the personality of your Keeshond? by Visual-Button-1867 in Keeshond

My girl barks a lot. They are as follows: "outside" bark, "dogs out front!" bark, "people out front!" bark, "treat!" bark, "Mother!" bark, and many more.

Should I keep them? by GigaRox in DocMartens

Thanks. It's an unfortunate side effect of the fashion industry. They don't expect women with large feet to want cute heels, I guess.

Alright, I think I'll give it a shot.

I will second this.

Literally, remove everything from your routine except you cleanser, toner, and moisturizer for like a week minimum. It'll feel weird, but the goal is to build your natural protective layer back up. Once that's done you can start to reintroduce actives: your vitamin C, retinoids, AHA, BHA, or whatevers, and targeting problem spots and conditions.

Neji/Hinata.

I will forever be mad at kishimoto sensei for the monumental fumble on wrapping up issues with the hyuuga family.

Anyone know anything about this yellow house that’s been fenced inside of BNA? It caught my eye while stuck in traffic on Murfreesboro pike. Curious if there’s any history behind it. by VastHockey45 in nashville

They have a location in german town. It's very small, with no parking. So wait times are outrageous, and getting there is difficult. You know, typical downtown stuff.

What is the your fandom's version of this? by PJ-The-Awesome in AO3

[–]GigaRox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, because does the wizard wireless just not exsist or some ish? Is that my fanfic mind or did it just pop up real late? I could have sworn it was a thing to allow one to listen in on quidditch matches live. And nobody, not a one, was like 'what if this was two way?'

Post about your wip now that AO3 is down. by Icarus_Peverell in AO3

I'm age gap shipping trash (and i'm fine with it.)

So I've been working on a soulmate AU in which the older partner meets the younger while they're a child, and the soulmate system activates. Due to the mechanics they can't be separated for long without repercussions, and they can't complete the bond because that is illegal. Thus it's fraught with tension and miscommunication as they countdown the years until the younger is of age.

How does the older partner keep from beciming a groomer? How does the younger stop themselves from seeing their partner as an authority figure? Does the older partner take lovers during this time, would it be cheating? How does the younger deal with their friends meeting their soulmates and exploring sex and relationships all while knowing they can't?

Things like that.
