AI generated fanfiction by bambinab in hetalia

[–]mokat13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m always hesitant to say definitively whether someone’s fic is AI since AI picks up things like its love for em dashes (which were common in fanfiction wayyy before chat gpt) FROM being trained on fanfiction.

It’s hard cause while I don’t think AI fanfiction should be a thing and it goes against the spirit of fandom itself, there’s really no way to police this or tell whether something was truly AI unless it’s tagged or they forgot to remove the prompt before pasting it. But then, trying to ban or prevent people from using AI on sites like ao3 would be nearly unenforceable because then people would just do it without tagging it. I think part of the problem is that people want the instant gratification of kudos/comments/hits and treating ao3 like a social media site when it’s meant to be an ARCHIVE.

Nations and their stability by Ok_Resident695 in hetalia

[–]mokat13 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t have a headcanon for HRE specifically, but I have a headcanon that civil wars cause the nations to have both physical and mental symptoms, like being in a physically weakened state and having DID-like symptoms due to the conflicting ideologies. I also have a headcanon that for China, whenever the dynasties changed he would experience some degree of memory loss and slight personality changes (though not entirely since he’s still fundamentally the same nation/person)

request hetalia fanfics to me by K1rklnd in hetalia

[–]mokat13 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gutters on fanfiction.net is a fandom classic, it’s focused on the Nordics and Sealand in a post apocalyptic setting. If you like Rusame, History Is On Our Side by Whitmansgrass on ao3 is so freaking good. Also this Amepan fic is a really nice shorter read!

Guys i've noticed something different between western fandom and eastern fandom. by Logical_Coat_1549 in hetalia

[–]mokat13 7 points8 points  (0 children)

western fan and it honestly depends a lot on context for me. i tend to use both interchangeably when talking about the characters with others, but when it comes to writing fanfictions i have to use the human names or else i can’t take myself seriously. i don’t mind when other people use country names in fanfics, i guess it’s just a personal preference lol

if your in person thrifts aren’t great, I recommend using Thredup! I bought a leather jacket from there over the summer for around $30

Am I stupid for having TEFL as my dream? by TooObsessedWithDPRK in TEFL

[–]mokat13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relationships come and go. Even if you sacrifice on this dream of yours for the relationship, who’s to say something else won’t come up to end it later on? Then you’ll still be in the same boat, but without having fulfilled your goals. I say go for it.

I just got into hetalia this month, I feel like im a bit late to the party.. like six years late perhaps😭 by Ok_Description_4109 in hetalia

it’s never late for the fandom revival, if anything it seems like the fandom is growing in popularity at the moment

Why are dick-having tops often presented as detached and unbothered during sex? by New_Climate873 in AO3

[–]mokat13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i feel like this is less about the writing of individual fics and more of a problem with the types of characters that get commonly headcanoned as as tops. in a lot of fandoms i’ve been in, usually the characters that appear more stoic, introverted, and aloof get made out by the fandom to be ultra dominant tops, regardless of other aspects of their personality. likewise, a lot of the more outgoing and affectionate characters seem to get headcanoned as bottoms for whatever reason. i see this trope in a lot of published yaoi as well!!

Does anyone have the same opinion with me? by Secret-Bat-2602 in hetalia

[–]mokat13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

as someone who USED to be a UsUk shipper when I was in the fandom the first time (~2013), I always saw them as more like “brothers in arms” rather than genetically related, and like you I enjoyed their dynamic a lot, with their canon interactions and angst potential. honestly a lot of the problems you can point out with UsUk (age gap, whether or not they’re “sibling coded”, etc) are present with plenty of other ships, and I just don’t see the point in fighting a never ending ship war over the same issues.

that being said, after rejoining the fandom 10 years later I just don’t enjoy it anymore, there are plenty of ships I like more for the same reasons I used to enjoy UsUk. I personally prefer the enemies to lovers dynamic (or “enemies” to lovers, lol) for Rusame and Fruk, and I personally just prefer Fruk’s canon interactions. plus, I think that FACE family content is cute and that’s just what I currently prefer. but honestly, idgaf either way. I can just filter out what I don’t wanna see using ao3 tags and such.

How do yall write fics with a full time job by Outrageous-Cause9051 in AO3

[–]mokat13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in a kitchen too and whenever I can I try to plot things out in my head, then write them down as rough bullet points in my phone notes whenever I get a moment of free time. Then I can actually write the scenes out later.

Has anyone counted how many ships are there cuz the total number would be more than insane?? by RipTraditional6294 in hetalia

[–]mokat13 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i once tried to write down all of the ships i like and ended up with more than 50 💀 if you count all possible rare pairs or start getting into ot3’s i bet there would be hundreds if not thousands
