The life and times of a crazy lazy gal

I am Manousos Oviedo. I am Carol Sturka. We are not one of them. We will save the world.

I got a comment on a fic that is less than a year old and it was mostly an apology for being a comment on an "old fic" and how late they were in commenting.

Fandom is not trends.

Fandom is a cross between a library and having a slumber party with your friends.

I got this comment on one of my fics:

I know it's a bot but I wanted to share it in case you get a similar comment and don't realise it's a hate bot because I think it could be hurtful to read without that knowledge. I've personally been really struggling with my writing at the moment so I think if I hadn't been aware this was a common hate bot comment it might have got under my skin.

I know this has been a problem in other fandoms but beyond a few spam comments that look like a robot keyboard smash that lasts for pages, I haven't received other spam comments until now so I wanted to give folks a heads up.

I'm also going to turn of guest commenting because even though I know it's spam, I still don't wanna read that shit.

I liked how after everything she went through in KL she reached Winterfell with a smidgeon of hope remaining in her about the people in the North.

I loved her small acts of defiance against Ramsay and Myranda. Her resilience. The way she calls him bastard because she knows it’s the one thing that gets to him is *chef kiss*

I liked that she confronted Theon and that she was able to show her rage and her despair for once in the whole show. ( and she’s so mad about Theon killing her brothers you can’t tell me she’s anything but a Stark, your f-Ed up fandom!)

I liked how she threw herself off the tower( it was a tower, right?) not to kill herself like she had stated one e before in KL but to survive. And I like that she needed Theon’s help because she’s human and I would need to hold someone else’s hand if I had to jump too. Most us us would.

I liked how she didn’t complain of the cold when she was on the run with Theon and how her first conversation with Brienne is about Arya and she is obviously proud of her sister for surviving.

I liked her reunion with John, and her resolve to get Winterfell and the north back.

I loved that she confronted littlefinger, I loved that she was able to put her pride/hurt aside for the bigger picture, I loved that she kept telling him he wasn’t wanted and I loved that she and Arya played and executed him. ( and I would have loved to see more of how they did that, but D&D seriously can’t seem to be able to write 2 women in a scene without them being in conflict, so maybe I’m glad?)

I like her understated relationship with Royce. ( filled with implications of how she behaved in the Vale, I have to believe, to inspire such loyalty).

I like all of her reasoning when she was confronted/plotting with Arya. I mean what she tell her about how useless it would be to threaten to kill everyone! *chef kiss* x2.

I like how she’s worried about long term survival for the north, how she wouldn’t just buy into the Dany is a good Queen, how she listened to Brienne about Jaime and how she played dumb and was cool-ish with him staying in Winterfell.

I like her reunion with Tyrion, how she obviously doesn’t hate him but she’s going to speak her mind and she won’t say sorry for escaping a hellish situation. And how she defends him first to Jon in S7 and then to Dany is S8 because that shows she’s fair.

I also love snarky Sansa, btw. And I hate how this fandom seems to accept snark from every other character but her.

So overall yeah.

I love Sansa.

And I’m tired of not only having to defend her from the fandom at large, but also having to defend her from people who can only accept book Sansa as the the one true Sansa who deserves love.
