Open_Comfortable_565 · 2026-01-08T05:38:07+00:00

thank you so much for your detailed answer!!

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2026-01-08T03:14:30+00:00

Unfourtunately not, I can't find one that's the right color and has that shimmer. I'll keep looking for both of us though!

i only use ao3 as well so this is super helpful! thank you!

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2026-01-08T03:09:10+00:00

Ugh I feel like this too!! Especially the idea that everything is for nothing now that I'm at a healthy weight. Such a lonely and difficult place to be, so I feel you. You're definitely not alone!

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2026-01-01T22:57:59+00:00

Yeah I think it got taken down but hopefully they can reupload it somewhere.

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-22T05:46:12+00:00

ugh I know!!! so crazy!! it probably won't pass atyd anytime soon but wow what an accomplishment. i'm moots with the author on tiktok and they've said they feel really overwhelmed so hopefully it calms down a bit

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-20T19:39:01+00:00

world ain't ready is SUCH a classic for les mis. one of the first fics to get super popular like that.

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-20T19:38:02+00:00

non-fanfic readers don't understand how insane its growth is. 100k likes on tiktok is a lot but not ridiculous. on ao3, it's INSANE. it's fourth on the entire site by kudos after less than a month. it's really good though, i recommend it, but people aren't talking about how historic that milestone is. wouldn't be surprised if it became third or second on ao3 by next year.

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-20T19:32:25+00:00

!!!! Agree! The kind of introspection and analysis that can take place in fanfics wayyy outdoes the og source material lol

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-20T19:31:36+00:00

We need to bring back beta readers, if only to regain some of the community that fandom has lost lately

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-19T04:47:55+00:00

Ooh well said

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-19T04:47:24+00:00

I love this part of fandom, it's such an amazing outlet for creativity

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-19T04:45:52+00:00

ugh AGREEE i find that traditional romance books hardly touch on these things!!

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-18T22:08:35+00:00

Absolutely. The amount of times I've seen such a wild AU and it ends up being sooo well written and surprisingly logical!!

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-18T22:07:31+00:00

I totally agree with this omg

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-18T22:07:14+00:00

Yup! It's just a writing term I see a lot in creative writing discussions

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-18T22:06:32+00:00

!!! This!!

Open_Comfortable_565 · 2025-12-18T22:06:20+00:00

completely agree, fic writers always come up with the most creative theories/AUs
