if we post too fast, we get accused of using ai (no, you don't know how fast someone can write. you don't even know if the "too-frequent-to-be-human updates" you see are something that have long been finished and sitting in an author's drafts for god knows how long. just because it's recently posted, doesn't necessarily always mean it's recently written too. a lot of writers finish the whole thing first before they start posting it chapter by chapter).

if we take "too long to update", we get people pressuring us to "update faster" even though fanfics are our hobbies and we write for ourselves first and foremost.

if our works are grammatically correct, we get accused of using ai (some of us just love correct grammars).

if our works are not grammatically correct, we get insulted/criticized (mind you, not everybody writes in their native language. kudos to writers who write in their second, or third, or fourth language — I'm willing to bet a lot of people who criticize fanfics because of poor grammar can't even speak other languages besides english).

if our paragraphs are "too long and too detailed", we get accused of using ai.

if our paragraphs are "too short", we also get accused of using ai.

if we are autistic and we write in ways some deem "too robotic", we get accused of using ai.

:)))) Goose you're amazing and super cool

Your comments on my fic made me very joyous

Uh. Hi. I like Juno Steel. So. Here is a Singer AU

It has gay people I'M REALLY BAD AT EXPLAINING THIS OKAY SO HERE'S THE SUMMARY:

Juno Steel's not a singer. He'll tell everyone that; not this lady. His brother's the dancer, his Ma was the author, and Juno's just... he's Juno. Sure, get a couple drinks in him and he'll be belting karaoke like it's nobody's business, but that's just when he's drunk. So, no, Sasha, he isn't a singer.

...Until Vicky tells him about a very interesting, very well-paying position he could snatch up as entertainment at the Valley. And Juno Steel's a lotta things- crass, unorganised, self-hating, drunk most of the time, but one thing he's not is a lady who'll turn down the opportunity for creds.

Juno returns home after a rough night, to spend it with the neon-haired stranger who he and Benzaiten taken (one-sidedly unwillingly) into their home. She's not the worst company. Buddy Aurinko has a chat with her Darling, a reflection on the newest addition to her line of work, and a think on just who she's befriended.
