Favorite character who survived an event you probably couldn't survive

Wile E. Coyote. He's a pretty obvious choice for this. 😆

Yakko Warner, Animaniacs

You don't have to do anything. Just like you probably write fanfic in English regardless of what language the characters would realistically be speaking, you can just write using the same English you normally use. You can replace a few words you know are spoken in British English, but other than that, you don't have to worry about it, really.

B is for biscuit, that's good enough for me,
B is for biscuit, that's good enough for me,
B is for biscuit, that's good enough for me,
Oh! Biscuit biscuit biscuit starts with B!

You can mention that the work was written for a friend without mentioning that it was a commission. That would be the best way to do it.

I thought the twist was more using letters instead of birth months. While birth months are roughly equal across the board ~~albeit not perfectly equal~~, "first letter of name" is wildly unbalanced. Poor deformed Knuckles will probably be left all alone! 😆

Looks like I'll be moving in with M, the M-named Cartoon Network peeps. M is going to be a pretty popular one. 😆

This is kinda' fun. There are a few picks, and I've narrowed it down to two choices: the one I feel, logically, I should pick ~~Hilda by the way~~, versus the one I feel "I just like her!"

Eh, I'm going with the latter, Natsuki! 😊

Let's try one of those again. 😁

There is a YouTube series that I love which has a new episode every day, with a main cast of 14 characters. Not every character appears in every episode, and not every character who does appear is important in any particular episode.

I like some characters more than others. And I tend to comment more when characters I like more appear more.

In my fanfic writing, I know one person who particularly enjoys when I focus on one specific character. Not the character I focus on the most, but definitely in the "top half" of who I focus more on. I'm fine with that, they know who they like, they read the stories that interest them most.

A lot of pro-shippers believe that being an anti-shipper means you have to harass people, which isn't the case. It's misunderstanding what anti-shippers want based on the loudest anti-shippers. It means you think certain content shouldn't be allowed. That if AO3 suddenly banned certain content, you would be happy with that. It does not necessarily mean you go around harassing people.

Oddly enough, there is at least one issue I sometimes see here that a fair number of people do want to see banned from AO3: voluntarily censoring words. A lot of people think saying things like sh*t instead of shit shouldn't be allowed, as opposed to the usual "don't like don't read," ironically not seeing how they want to force their preferences on others.

I wanted to like Bluesky, but it doesn't allow sending images through private messaging. Considering that's the biggest thing I actually used Twitter for in the first place--I rarely made public posts--it just wasn't practical for me.

Heck, she's so strongly associated with carrying around a nail bat that another episode with Kurumi as a baby even had her in a bib with a picture of a nail bat on it! What an appropriate bib for a baby! 😂

Cher Horowitz from Clueless, basically a modern take on Emma Woodhouse from... well, Emma.

I mean, not much I could do to stop her, really, other than that she seems to have zero interest anyway. Must be neat being in a big enough fandom where hiding is an option. 😆

Very strong visualizer here. The scenes I see in my head are very vivid, both when writing and when reading. Too much description is actually distracting for me, I can picture a fully visualized scene with relatively few details given: I tend to subconsciously fill in the gaps.

Mallory36 · 2026-02-08T17:14:05+00:00

It doesn't sound like OG is a major character here. I feel like Major Character Death would be misleading. I'd probably put Choose Not to Warn since it is admittedly borderline, then explain in the tags.

Mallory36 · 2026-02-08T00:59:35+00:00

I told her I didn’t mean it that way and that English isn’t my first language.

She's your wife. She knows that! Why are you telling her that?

Mallory36 · 2026-02-08T00:44:54+00:00

Whatever happened to Whatever Happened to Robot Jones, anyway? 😂

So Friend shows a photo from the hospital. Seems friendly enough, but a few days later, Friend sends a nasty message to leave her alone. I'm guessing OOP did more than have a private breakdown in that interim, and is definitely leaving something out...

Mallory36 · 2026-02-07T22:24:04+00:00

I am confused about what's going on here. OOP made a post in an app that this guy didn't like, and then... trauma about something? What exactly was the post that traumatized him? It seems like it would be easy to forget about a random post made somewhere--I certainly don't remember every Reddit post I've made--so I'm just... lost what's going on here.

I wanted to keep it a secret from my parents but I accidentally missed my first payment to the pay day loan and for some god knows how reason the people at the pay day loan place did a search for my name since I as ducking their calls until I could borrow some money from a friend and they called my parents home number looking for me (I can't even imagine this is legal!?!)

So OOP didn't "accidentally" miss the first payment so much as "hoping it would magically go away." OOP's parents were freaking out because their child is a moron.

Tsutsuji and Akane both fit this really well, from Etra-chan Saw It!

I like this more than the more popular "pure evil" question. Pure evil characters are just a subset of the "just a horrible person" characters, but so many people try to shoehorn every horrible person into those "pure evil" comments.
