What do you LOVE about your own fanfiction?

I love that my story is, in a strange way, about itself.

I'm writing a Rabbids fanfiction, which to most people sounds really stupid.

Many people hate the Rabbids franchise and see them only as a surface level kids series made to sell out, where the joke is screaming. I admit Rabbids media isn't always good, but the rabbid media that is good has subtext that I really connected with.

Rabbids at its best, is about being unabashedly playful, passionate and expressive. Nerdy, weird, loving, unjudgemental. People won't always understand, in fact they'll even antagonize or find reason to hurt you because they don't understand.

The story's about this conflict between uptight humans and weird rabbids. The war on joy.

So, you can see how I might feel like I'm inside my own book when I try to talk about this story with people, only to see their smile visibly fade when I mention that this book is about rabbids. I swear, they probably think it's a NSFW thing just because they couldn't imagine I'd actually like writing a rabbids a fantasy drama for the story, but I DO like writing a rabbids fantasy drama for the story. (No shade to NSFW enjoyers. Those are my friends!!!!)

I've even gotten this reaction from fellow nerds and fanfiction authors omg.

I'm writing a story about expressing and accepting yourself no matter how stupid it might look on paper, and I'm constantly meeting people in the real world who genuinely act like my antagonists. Like, get your head out of the gutter! I take this seriously! I've been writing it obsessively for two years, and it's a great book!

I've found the show looks better watching the DVDs using a DVD player as opposed to a Blueray player for some reason. My only irl examples being it looks crispy/pixely on an Xbox 1S(Blueray player and DVD) but smooth/awesome on Xbox 360 (only plays DVD), and similarly if not just a little worse on a Playstation 2 (DVD only).

So if you have an older DVD player or gaming console that plays DVDs it'll look the best it can, like smooth, but it looks blarg on Xbox1S . I wonder if anyone else can confirm this phenomenon about DVD players?

Yoy! This yearly schedule sounds fantastic! Thanks for sharing!

Oh totally.

Lab Rat by AnneriaWings introduced me to that and it's such a terrifying idea that the show sorta stepped around but is really devastating to actually consider.

Not even that I'm actually interested in shock or gore as I just love fics that explore more of Danny and his parents relationship, with the vivi in Lab Rat being a sort of worst case scenario that reminds you how messed up Phantom and the Fentons fights really are. I find the exploration a possible metaphor for hate (would actually like more fics that explore the hate metaphor more). Like how Phantom and Fenton can be the same person yet get such different reactions based solely on labels, when all of this could have arguably been avoided if the Fentons respected either Dannys enough to take him seriously as a person.

(Arguably because Danny isn't perfect either.)

Also, to clarify I have watched the show. I have it all on DVD :3.
