Are you sure it isn't time for a colorful metaphor

Becca. Ultrageekatlarge on Ao3. Obsessed with fictional plotlines. Overly invested in Star Trek and currently having many feelings about some bats in capes. Emotionally compromised because of sidekicks with sad back stories. 31. I’m on here I’m avoiding writing.

Hey so since it's come up more than once now, here's my official stance on printing and binding any of my fics:

  • If you are binding the fic for book binding practice, shits and giggles, to give as a gift to a friend or two, or to have for yourself, that's fine.
  • If you are making profit off the bound fic in any way, shape, or form, including taking commission to bind it for someone else, selling the bound version, mass producing the bound fic, reselling a bound fic you received as a gift, or any variation of that, I do not consent to it. At all.

If at any point I learn, see, or discover that profit has been made by selling or binding one of my fics, I will immediately delete that fic. Full stop and with no hesitation. I am very serious about this. I'm not fucking around with getting sued or any kind of legal ramifications because you wanted to make a buck off words you didn't write using characters I did not create.

Don't be the person who ruins fanfic for the rest of us, report it immediately when you see any kind of fic being bought or sold, and shame anyone you see participating in profiting off fanfiction. We already exist in a legal gray area. Don't be the tipping point into the illegal category.

Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk.

RULES: Post the last sentence you wrote (fanfic / original / anything) and tag as many people as there are words in the sentence.

Like a month ago @a-canceled-stamp tagged me in this (thank you!) but I'm only getting to it now. The last sentences I wrote were all in original fic which I don't really want to share here, so I went and dug up my last fic fic words, which was me poking at a bit of the Like a Hinge sequel (which, yes, I still am picking at, I promise it hasn't been forgotten or abandoned, just...a bit back burnered. As apology here are Several sentences)

The second Dick’s car comes around the bend in the driveway, Jason is on his feet and waiting at the door. Dick knocks, only once, and Jason immediately rips the door open. “Hey Alf,” says Dick. Then, “Wait, hang on. Why’re you—” Jason says, “No solicitors.” “But—” “We don’t want any,” and he slams the door closed. He tries to slam it, anyway. Dick catches it at the last minute and shoves an arm through the gap. “Please, sir, just a moment of your time to talk about our Lord and Savior Superman,” he says, hand pawing through the air as he searches out Jason. “Just a moment, sir, I only need a moment—” “I said we don’t want any,” says Jason, and he throws his whole body weight against the door to try and shut it. Dick wedges more of his shoulder through, reaching blindly until he manages to grab a handful of Jason’s hair and pull. Jason yelps, loses his grip on the door, and Dick comes barreling inside to get him in a headlock. “Say it,” Dick says, “Say you accept Clark Kent into your heart and soul.” “No!” Jason lurches sideways until Dick’s pinned between him and the wall. All the picture frames rattle on impact. “You can’t make me!” “Say it!” "Death first!"

I have no concept for who has been tagged in this, and I ain't counting how many sentences are in here, so I tag everyone who has some stuff they've written and wants to share. Please tag me though so I can read your lovely words!

You should always strive to give your followers an extremely warped impression of your favorite media

Ideally they should be under the impression that it's about the lesbian trysts of two side-characters who barely interact and be unable to recognize the protagonist

sunshiney characters who adore the mean grumpy character, platonically or romantically, but not DESPITE them being mean as if that isn’t who the other “really” is deep down. they love it. they think the other is the funniest cleverest most delightful person alive

if the sunshiney character doesn’t have to cover their mouth up trying not to laugh at every sharp comment, completely altering how everyone else thinks abt the sunshiney character, then what’s the point
