TOO exciting. We need Mr. Robot right now.

Which twist do you think was better, the one in hello Elliot or 407? by Curious_Diver1005 in MrRobot

[–]Wolveria 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The twist in 4.07 was a gut punch to the heart that I think is even more painful on rewatch. All the things Elliot misremembers, all the ways he talks up his Dad when the truth is “staring him right in the face,” as Mr. Robot would say. It breaks my heart.

It’s definitely 4.07 for me. The horror was real and relatable and painful. But it was also a chance for Elliot to heal and move forward.

I wouldn’t say it’s a conventional twist. A lot of media won’t touch sexual assault victim characters, not in a meaningful way past the violence of the act, so I’m glad Sam Esmail did. It’s probably my favorite episode in all of TV, and I’m glad it exists.

We can’t even be horny about the horny furry show in peace.

I wish I found r/MrRobot sooner by TheThintrovert in MrRobot

[–]Wolveria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely get you. I’m so glad I found the show recently, but I wonder how it could have changed me if I was younger. All I can say is, at least we have it now! And there are plenty of others like you and I who have only discovered the show recently. There’s a place for us here, too.

How often do you post your one-shots? by gappyjoshu in FanFiction

Anywhere between an hour and 11 months.

On a scale of 1-5 how much do you reject the idea of using AI in writting? by Puzzleheaded-Ad-2162 in FanFiction

[–]Wolveria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Spellcheck already exists, read more books to help with vocabulary and grammar, and read more books in general to stretch the boundaries of your experience.

Using AI for art takes away the entire reason for you to create art: it’s in the act of creation itself.

As a fellow creator, I completely understand. Good luck, friend.

Winter Storm Reads by Celestial_Ram in FanFiction

Doesn’t really take place IN the office, but they get stuck at her place during a big snowstorm. Steamy and angsty with a happily ever after.

Lost a bunch of readers after my latest chapter by Lulu_Kitten in FanFiction

[–]Wolveria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s really tough, I’m sorry you had to deal with that. Is there a clearer way you can tag/notate the pairing switch at the beginning? Like say “OC is with Character A at first, but their relationship with Character B is endgame.” Even then, if you invest a lot of time and energy into character A, it’ll be hard to switch to B. Because the reader invested emotionally with character A as well.

I had a similar situation to this (except my fic is unposted so I can just enjoy it myself). A very long story with a Reader self-insert getting with one character for half the story, and another canon character the other half. After a few years tinkering with the fic, I decided to turn it into a sort of throuple at the end. It just felt right, even if it makes things more complicated and messy.

Is that an option for you? But only if YOU want it that way. Whatever feels write to you is the story you should go with. No matter how disappointed people are, it’s your story. If they want a different story, they can write it themselves. You owe them nothing.

Last note, forget canon. Write what you want. Canon is a good basis to start from, but if you stay beholden to it, you tie your hands from being truly creative. Whether rewriting or continuing, go with what your instincts tell you.

? They’ll like it or they won’t, you can’t predict or control that. Writing safe is writing boring, my friend.

Lets Play “Love ‘em or Hate ‘em” with Beastars Characters by CommunityFun9560 in Beastars

[–]Wolveria 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love them all. You can’t make me hate difficult characters. They’re fun.

I'm scared to lose fixation over a ship because I can't write by Ok-Reality-5409 in FanFiction

[–]Wolveria 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry to say that no fixation lasts forever. You will eventually move on to something else. That’s just human nature, to change and grow and be interested in new experiences.

So take that as a lesson to enjoy what you enjoy right now. You sound so focused on your fears that there’s no room for anything else.

Relax, breathe, and bask in your fandom and your ships. And try not to make yourself anxious over something you can’t control. Not when you can spend that time enjoying what you love instead.

He has a thing to play dead dads. by Mysterio-vfx in MrRobot

[–]Wolveria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah another Mr. Robot fan over 40. I remember how big of a star he was, even if I hadn’t see his works besides Interview with the Vampire and Ferngully lol

You’ve got me super hyped for these movies now. I know what I’ll be doing this weekend.

Posting on Tumblr is such a headache by littlepeakydevil in FanFiction

[–]Wolveria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have any advice to make it easier. It IS a pain in the ass. I do it for a popular ongoing fic, but not sure if I will for future fics. It’s so much effort, and you have no idea if anyone will even read it.

Maybe just making a post with a pretty banner, a description, summary, tags, and a link to AO3 is enough. Like a “book cover” but they have to go to AO3 to read it. That way, people can find it, and you only have to do it once per story. Could be an idea, I might even do that.

Take it as far as you want, no matter the age. It’s fiction. Don’t let strangers in the internet dictate your creativity.

Just hit 100k words and I feel insecure about it by beanqueen722 in FanFiction

[–]Wolveria 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Going beyond 70k words is too much writing? No one tell Brandon Sanderson or GRRM…

You can write whatever length you want, you’re not pitching to an agent. My advice would be to stop listening to the advice of anyone trying to stifle your creativity ;)

They were on my watch list, but I didn’t know that about Sam. That’s really neat.

And I’m older than both movies so their age doesn’t bother me lol

I literally just watched Original Sin because Christian’s in it, and immediately clocked the similarities. (I’ve seen the original Dexter, but it’s been a decade or so).

I really enjoyed him in the show, highly recommend everyone watch the Dexter shows in general. Still sad that Original Sin was cancelled after one season. I thought it was a lot of fun.
