wtf, Hetalia

I have been doing that for years.

I bow to your tag-wrangling skills. That job is insane.

I'm actually really enjoying it. Making order out of chaos is fun.

Oh, I am so sadly familiar with Five Nights at Freddy's, because OMG, the child is OBSESSED.

I am now terrified that she'll find the fic.

I understand your concern. On the other hand, I am a tag wrangler on Ao3, which involves not only seeing all the tags on all the fics in my fandoms* (and crossovers. wtf, Hetalia?), but sometimes investigating to figure out what the hell the author intended with a tag ("That's...that's not how you words. That's also not how you bodies.") And, with that disclaimer, I will defer to your judgement and comfort level.

I'm merrily choose not to warn, except in the case of the other story I plan on writing for the fandom, where I will have managed all of the major warnings groups and thus desire strongly to win at Warnings Bingo, so I'm probably overthinking my tagging.

It's mainly me quibbling on how, exactly, I want to tag for the sections involving underage sexual situations where all parties are under the influence, off screen underage sexual situations that are primarily mentioned in passing, implied unintentional voyeurism, age disparity, and unhealthy levels of interdependency.

The rest of the tags I pretty much have covered.

I've watched YouTube videos of people playing Five Nights at Freddy's. It's pretty fun watching other people freak out.

underage sexual situations where all parties are under the influence

We don't have a canonical for that whole concept, and I can't find other tags to support making one, so I'd say tag for them separately, and then also all together, so we can look at making a canonical.

off screen underage sexual situations that are primarily mentioned in passing

Implied/Referenced Underage Sex is almost certainly what any tag like that would be made synonymous with

implied unintentional voyeurism

Will probably get synned to Accidental voyeurism

age disparity

"Age gap" is the canonical, with sub-tags of: Older Woman/Younger Man
Older Man/Younger Woman
Cross-Generation Relationship
Older Man/Younger Man
Older Woman/Younger Woman

unhealthy levels of interdependency

Hmm...we have codependency and unhealthy relationships. It looks like we could easily make an argument for an "unhealthy codependency" canonical.

This post brought to you by there are things I should be doing, but don't want to , the letter A , and the number 3 .

I quibble at codependency because I'm a pedant and we keep not using the term correctly (it has a very specific meaning around enabling that is not applicable to the bulk of the times it is used anywhere these days). (And, really, if you're reading in that fandom and you can't figure out that two people who've been on the run from shady government agencies for basically the duration of their respective late childhood and teen years and well into young adulthood, in fact, have an unhealthy and overly-dependent on each other kind of relationship as a result, you probably do not deserve a tag for it.)

(I have issues. I own them.)

I, *cough* am familiar with most of the actual canonical tags because that's how I filter for shit I want to read (AHAHAHAHAHA, BOY HOWDY DO I EVER). Those were more the specific, "hmm, how, exactly, do I want to file these consent issues?" sorts of questions, which is going to boil down to a judgement call that I am totally letting Cass make for me.

Like, basically, by the time I'm done writing something, I'm so numb to the actual content of said story that I find myself saying (to give a specific, pre-AO3 example), "So, this isn't that explicit, so I was thinking PG13?" only to be told, basically, "WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK? THIS IS AN NC-17 STORY IF I HAVE EVER READ ONE, HE IS FUCKING A CAR FOR FUCK'S SAKE."

Which is actually exactly why I have beta readers.

hee.

If you ever find something that you think SHOULD be a canonical, please let me know.

Oh, I totally will.

Hey, is, to give an example of things being sought out by people I know, say, metal arm fisting a canonical?
