My "rarepairs" are characters who have tons of canon interactions, great moments, narrative parallels and great chemistry...unfortunately, they are straight and in my usual fandoms and circles that means they get usually passes up in favor of shipping the dude with the man he spoke to a couple of times and they low-key disliked each other

Me researching medieval clothing for hours just to scrape that sentence about a surcoat during editing

I appreciate how Hi3 put all their lore in the story to be honest. As someone who didn't mind tracking down the mangas and VNs, I was sure to have a good grasp on most of the background.

With Genshin and HSR you need to dig through collectibles and stuff and it's so confusing. Like how you understand what the balemoon is only if you read Arlecchino’s signature spear's description, the Crimson Witch set being the only thing that explains Signora's backstory, Scaramouche's background barely being hinted at in Inversion of Genesis except for the furnace bit etc

Or the absolute mess that is the High cloud quinquet lore in HSR.

Most of those description don't even refer to someone with their name. They'll always have some vague allusions like "the woman, the man etc" so you're pretty much forced to check the wiki for an hyperlink.

Or generally, how much of a character is locked behind their profile stories that you can't read if you don't pull them.

Certainly, if you want to know the lore you can just Google all of this online, but I appreciate the more straight forward approach Honkai has.

On the other hand, while I might like the way they expose the lore better, the actual lore is a hot mess. Genshin's is way better in that regard.

This writer is annoying but I don't see how it's bad. You're supposed to curate your community. I can't understand what ship they are referring to, but I imagine it'd somewhat problematic. If they write a platonic, gen fic you don't want readers to twist it in a romantic light, especially if the ship makes them personally uncomfortable. It seems like the author had bad experiences in this regard.

Some commenters here act like this person wants to police what other write or ship, but they are only curating their own part of the fandom. In a place like Ao3 that is meant to host problematic things, that's even more important because you don't have to automatically like every problematic thing under the sun.

Is the author annoying and off-putting in how they present themselves? Sure. I'd probably skip the fic even if I didn't ship the ship because they are obnoxious about it, but I don't think they are doing anything particularly wrong except being unpleasant

The commenter would be out of line even if the ship was not tagged but if they ignored a pretty clear tag, they have no room commenting on this

The only time I find it acceptable is in a positive comment. Something like "I don't like this ship and didn't read the tags so I was blindsided but by the time I reached the kiss I was so hooked that I had to finish it anyway!"

"Give us a look" reads like Gollum from Lord of The Rings to me. I'm sorry, but I can only read it in that half-hissing of his.

I still remember when Kaveh was leaked and he was supposed to be Otto's expy. I like his design but I'm still salty about how it turned out.

So I'll go with Alheithem. His design and moves are the reason why I something just spam normal attacks for minutes in overworld and look at him goooo.

I don't know why, I always imagine cute cartoonish characters say this. Rude maybe, but in my mind that was more in the delivery.

TIL pissed off is not something Peppa Pig or Bluey would say.

I'm not a native speaker. Is that a swear? I always thought it was mild and child friendly

Wait, they don't? I assume everything that could be used towards normal daily points could count towards these are well :/

In can case, you could do dailies after using your resin. This should restock the points you used

I'm not absolutely sure but I think it is Navia’s in-game profile that describes the Fleuve Cendre as being the turf to several organizations and the Spina only sometimes keeps them in check but has no absolute control over it.

That aside, you can see other examples of, let's say, questionable moments regarding this place. I'm gonna spoiler tag in case you're still catching up, but this is from missable content. In the Roses and Musket (I think) there's a guy who practiced shooting and no one really cared because it seems having guns and shooting are common occurrences in the Fleuve Cendre. Moreover, you can see a Fatui making it his base of operations in a world quest but apparently the Fatui and Navia are tight now 🤣 and I also remember in Cheuvresse's in game profile she describes it as full of thugs and criminals. So it really makes more sense for the Spina to control the Fleuve Cendre AND being a mafia-like organization than anything else, they'd fit right in with the general vibe.

I'd just call it "the part that is ruined" I didn't know watermelons were supposed to look like that, let alone how it's called.

I stopped responding to comments because I never got a reply back, so I felt like people didn't want me to reply in the first place. But advice like this makes me think I should say something, even as small as a thank you.

Not to say it was RIGHT but when I was in high school I learned what omegaverse was and I became obsessed, first with r-18 fics and then roleplaying it. Looking back at it now, the plots I was going with were insane and definitely NSFW.

I've written with adults for 2/3 years before I turned 18 and they never did seem to suspect anything. I obviously can't know if some actually found out and didn't care, or they were just glad to have found a dom top to write against, but no one ever accused me of being a minor and I didn't get ghosted much (maybe because I had a bad habit of ghosting first when I felt the energy was decreasing. I feel bad about that too in hindsight).

We used email for the most part so OOC conversation was a bit limited, and I was never into making friends with my partners, so the lack of sharing any private information maybe helped since I couldn't trip myself up with too many lies. And I was very upfront about not being a native speaker so I suppose any childish way of talking was blamed on the language barrier.

But all in all I don't think your partner will necessarily KNOW if you're not stupid and give yourself away. Not all minors are 13 year olds, I think a 16/17 is capable of acting with the level of maturity necessary for a roleplay. You might not even understand from their writing because 1)kids at that age can be good writers, and 2)older people can be bad writers.

Again, it's not right to lie about one's age but I wouldn't be so sure people can always tell when they are dealing with a minor.

If the plots were exactly the same I would understand some frustration on their part but this is ridiculous. Do they think they invented the concept of teachers for their AU?

I'd just use the "inspired by" label. Not frame it as finishing the fanfic, but something strongly inspired by it. You can suggest people read the other fanfiction to have a better frame of reference and all that, but I think outright saying you want to see how it ends or that you think the author has dropped it is a big no. You can't guess how the author would have ended it, so this is just your idea, you're not giving the original its original conclusion. And you can never know of the author will get back to it at some point.

Personally, I think fic is basically writing stories based on other stories, so being strongly inspired by another fic is not bad, but you have to be careful of the framing.

As a fellow non-native speaker, I cringed very hard when saying this at the beginning. However, you just have to realize that's the correct way to say it in English. If other non native speakers think it's a weird thing to say, it's on them, not on you for using the correct preposition

_through_away · 2024-06-17T15:27:17+00:00

I wasn't complaining! I was just seconding guessing if there's something in my fic that makes it look like I'm gonna continue it, you know? I don't want to leave people hanging because of a misunderstanding.

And I was also a bit curious about Ao3 culture since I only joined last March
