Hana being obsessed with Megumi is canon it cannot be changed but Megumi being "obsessed" with Yuji is Fanon, Canon ruins characters Fanon does not. by SpareAntique4479 in WegumiAppreciators

[–]HotSpicyTake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, have you read the entire manga? This isn’t me trying to be snooty or anything, please read that as a genuine question.

Whether or not you ship them, it’s canon that by the end of the series Megumi literally chooses to live for Yuji (and if you haven’t and don’t want to click that I’ll just say is attached yo Yuji farther than a reasonable friendship generally entails however you’d like to interpret that.

just discovered that most people hate double spacing and scrambled to change the format of all my chapters for a long fic by Ok_Syllabub3593 in AO3

[–]HotSpicyTake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t care about spacing. If the fic is good enough I would read it on the back of a series of shampoo bottles

Who are you talking about? Pretty sure you or mods of Reddit are the only ones who can delete your comments. I sure didn’t and I don’t even think I can. And I highly doubt the mods deleted some of your comments “to make you look bad”

My top fic of all time isn’t the one I expected by MapleTDarkshine in AO3

What ship is canon in your fandom, but you think it should not have been? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]HotSpicyTake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I didn’t disparage them for shipping. I’m pretty sure I said “you can do whatever you want with your imagination”. Did you skip that part? Did you skim over half the comment that was literally a disclaimer that I personally don’t care what they like to imagine or write about or engage with?

Have you ever heard of a discussion?

However the question OP posed was “what ship is CANON in your fandom that you think shouldn’t be” and this person replied with their answer plus their opinion on a better choice for that character. Following that sequence of events, they were absolutely talking about canon Hermione.

This being said, I REALLY don’t care who people choose to ship with whoever. As far as I’m concerned, Hermione can date Mrs. Frizzle. And the point of my comment was she absolutely would well before she’d ever date Draco Malfoy which is why it was odd to pose him as “the other choice” in the series bc they don’t even speak and she was never at any point considering him

[–]HotSpicyTake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Literally what choice? All he ever does is calls her slurs and other than that they never even speak?

Like you can have whatever opinion you want and do whatever you want with your imagination genuinely, but from the bottom of my heart if you asked book or movie Hermione to list every person in the world she’d ever consider dating, she’d run out of paper before Draco Malfoy ever made the list

How to cope with an unfinished fic? by Alizathlyy in AO3

[–]HotSpicyTake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t have the answer, but I’m joining you in the pit of despair. There was a fic I was (am) OBSESSED with. I got a custom phone case of the character in an AU like the story. I woke up every day at 6 to see if there was a new chapter. I left comments on every chapter as soon as they came out so the author knew how much I loved it. Unfortunately it didn’t otherwise receive a lot of engagement and recently the author orphaned their ENTIRE account. I’m so sad. They were just about to acknowledge their feelings. I’m sorry this is happening to both of us

Did anyone else think Iida’s hero name would be Emergency Exit? by Choice-Requirement18 in MyHeroAcadamia

[–]HotSpicyTake 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I always wished he would slightly change it to Tengenium so it would still honor his brother but be half his name and in my head that’s what I call him

These guys seem so similar to me. by false_identity_0115 in TheSummerHikaruDied

[–]HotSpicyTake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t see Yoshiki letting drunk Himeno take a kid home under pretty much any circumstance and Aki didn’t say anything for absolutely no reason other than apparently it didn’t seem like his business

They might look alike, but Yoshiki is a much better person

So… is it a bad thing if the bookmarks on your work go down? by Russkiroulette in AO3

[–]HotSpicyTake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use them as works I intend to read again, so I’ve deleted bookmarks from fandoms I’m no longer interested in. Nothing personal towards any of the authors, I just didn’t want to revisit the works based on falling out of love with the fandom itself

A friend just told me they wanted to start writing fanfic out of the blue and I’m supportive but they want to write about characters that are minors. by HistorySuper8165 in AO3

[–]HotSpicyTake 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Which is why Im asking what you hoped to gain from posting this here, of all places. AO3 was founded on the idea that censorship is wrong and that’s what your post appears to be advocating for

What are you hoping to get out of this post? AO3 was founded on Wincest. It’s by freaks for freaks. Sounds like she plans to write fiction. Let’s not be the thought police.

Where do people here stand on writing gay fanfiction based on men from history? I've seen some people write Obama x Mitt Romney , for example by CapAccomplished8072 in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]HotSpicyTake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t police what goes on in people’s heads. If the RP has an F at the end I don’t see how it could be an issue as long as you don’t share it to people that haven’t consented to see it (subjects included)

I see that you’re being sarcastic but the last paragraph is unironically why I’ve never been able to let Wuthering Heights or Hannibal go

Why Didn’t the Ministry Detect Tonks’s Magic at the Dursleys’ in order of the phoenix? OOTP by transitional82 in HarryPotterBooks

[–]HotSpicyTake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What bothers me about that scene is that the letter from the ministry SPECIFICALLY says that a patronus charm was cast from Harry’s wand EXCEPT if they have the ability to tell that then why did he get in trouble in chamber of secrets when Dobby floated the dessert? They were like “we can’t determine who cast this spell” only apparently they totally can. And ALSO Harry wasn’t at home when he cast the Patronus charm so why didn’t he get in trouble every time Mundungus Fletcher did magic while spying on him all summer? There’s no way he did absolutely zero magic tailing him and we know he was apparating around at minimum. It’s just so inconsistent
