you ever get an ao3 comment that makes you feel so validated like YES you got EXACTLY what i was trying to say. we are mind melding. we should kiss on the lips
learning how to hunt for the good fic on ao3 definitely has a learning curve but with time and effort and practice you too can develop a keen sense for how good a fic will be based on how unhinged the tags are

Alright that’s a good exception to an otherwise solid rule.
Jack Black also gets a pass.
Can't believe we're witnessing Percy's rise from Poltergeist to Cursed Amulet to Haunted Doll and we're only in season 2
this is before f!Jon arrived
f!Martin has ended his friendship with uncomfortable chairs since ep170
idk if this is controversial or not, but I really like when non-professional writing like fic has hints of author bleedthrough when it comes to like, what different people assume is common knowledge. Like sometimes I’ll be reading a fic and it’ll just be obvious that the person writing it is either obsessed with medicine or has been to medical school, because they’ll use terms that are just a shade too technical without explaining them. It’s never the super specific stuff that they’d know other people are unaware of, it’s always the things that once you’ve known it for a while you forget it’s niche knowledge. It’s fun because as a fanfic reader it reminds me of how this is a fun hobby community, where everyone has their own thing going on outside of fandom. Everyone’s got their own specialties and they can’t help but write that into their work sometimes
…well this post sure took off
new ask game; what do you think my hobby, skillset or knowledge or any other details of me based off my writing
Oh, this is fascinating - what do I clearly know More Than Usual about?
