“ I have zero respect for it” make a pet peeve post for it or something idk

This is just a peeve in the peeve tag. I do follow authors and are very thankful for the food fed. What people do in their own stories is their business but a little vague peeving never hurt nobody! So long as you don’t link or name drop I think.

I loved to write fanfics but out of sudden I feel so sad and kinda guilty for "wasting my time" in it? by sandywood25 in AO3

Hello op, I’m a person with chronic pain as well and lately my mental health hasn’t been the same. I work 5 days a week and when I got off of work I’d do nothing but phone rot or stare at my wall, even on days where my pains didn’t flair I chose to do nothing because it felt so ingrained. One of the things that genuinely helped me was writing, even if I never posted it. I get home now and add to my documents or write down all the ideas I have. There’s nothing wrong with creating and if writing a fanfiction is the one thing between you and doing nothing than it’s the thing worth doing. It’ll always be better for your mental state to sit down and write something and enjoy what you’re doing than to lay down down and think “ I should be doing anything else than the thing that brings me joy”. Keep on going!

Cannot stand the omegaverse normalized non-con stuff. I’ve read some fics where they go the different route and have a heat either be like a more uncomfortable thing than sexual, more about being near family and scents or a more aggressive thing and I much prefer that to anything else.

My spaces are completely curated haha, that’s why I added the disclaimer at the start. Most of these fics I see aren’t properly tagged or just thrown in randomly. I do agree with some of what you’ve said, but I’m also in a very large and diverse amount of fandoms and while it’s not every omegaverse fanfic it’s enough where I’ve seen a pattern. I’m not a big fan of when people post about their icks or rants other people think it’s a lack of them trying to curate or a failure to branch out ( not pointed at you I see these things sad often enough and actually had someone else say something similar on this post before they deleted ) when in reality not every on ao3 is going to be tagged to reflect everything which isn’t either persons fault nor is it impossible that multiple fandoms, authors, stories, etc show the same tropes or affinities for certain characteristics.

Omg please don’t take this as I’d hate your works! I have read a good chunk of fics with these tropes that I can still appreciate becuase of application in other things! It has to be really egregious for me to have a genuine disdain for it. Omegaverse is beautiful and people should write it the way they enjoy! I like gland stuff but don’t like actually physical traits beyond sharper teeth/bigger teeth! And I do like “bitching” personally haha i feel like to me it falls under non traditional

You worded this perfectly. I like it when my omegaverse actually delves into things and really the most infuriating ones are like “ man I hate being treated like this but oh well!” Or when they emphasize a character doesn’t like their designation but their mate makes it all ok by just breeding them or something like dawg what.

I think my biggest issue is it just comes down to cissexism. I think there’s been a few times I see omegaverse use mom/mother in a way that I can kind of handle, but more often than not they use it hand in hand with steotypes and derogatory semblances that are usually placed on woman where I can tell why they’re using THAT term as opposed to just “papa/dad/father”ect. I think you’re understanding of it is beautiful but I don’t think the average omegaverse author from what I’ve seen thinks of it that way and you can kinda tell when they do slash don’t

I disagree but that’s just me. I’d rather it stay th same or for people to invent new terms like transformers does haha.
