Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hey--did she ever finish her Marty Sue D/C fic?

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

I don't think so. At least the last thing I read didn't seem like a conclusion. But I haven't been following that one with bated breath like scaramouche's It's Always the End of the World Somewhere timestamps.

I have a completely unsupported suspicion that the feedback she got on that one was pushing in a direction different from where she'd intended to go, and that people weren't responding as positively to the character as she wanted them to.

That was one of the few times I actually read a fic's comments, because something didn't feel aligned.

So, in my head, she punked out. At this point, I have nothing invested in her characters, I just interested in a meta way how she's going to make it work out.

However, scaramouche...just...man, I love those kids.

I've been dealing with insurance shit. I really needed the laugh. One of the funniest bits of fan fiction - well, ever.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Wow, I didn't realize that AO3's recent overload problem was mostly due to ff.net drama. AO3 currently has 17,000 people in the invitation queue.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

holy shit...really? Weird. Kind of frustrating, too. (Because it's wonky a lot lately.)

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

What ff.net drama? Are they all migrating to AO3? Someone on my FFlist said the other day the frequent outage was from all the Avengers fic.
