Chris. she/her. Fandom Old. Aries. AroAce. She of the Terrifying Word Count. There are no benefits to being a retail manager. Purple tiefling enthusiast. Has a PhD in Lucien Nonagon, probably. Cree Rights Activist. Tombtaker Apologist. Simps For Hell in Any Universe. My fandoms, ships, and character preferences are not always wholesome or unproblematic and you have to decide if you can live with that.
Hello, my name is Chris. I write a lot of fanfic and have been doing so for 25 years. I'm old, Clarence.
You will often see me talk about my writing, so this post is for knowing what the fuck I am talking about, because that is literally the ONLY THING you need to know about me going into this blog. Everything else is subject to my whims. I have a lot of fandoms. Many of them will be represented on this list.
It is a running joke that I can never predict the word count of anything and when I say 200k, what I actually mean is 600k. I didn't use to be like this. Something broke in me and now everyone has to deal with my doorstoppers.
90% of my fic titles come from Seanan McGuire's songbook. In case you were wondering.
Current projects I am working on (AKA "THE B TEAM" why do they all have B words in them):
by a spindle's bright end (0/30)- Critical Role. Finale of life in the margins of redemption. Covers CR3 in the sense that events from CR3 sure do happen, but is told primarily from the POV of the Nein and their allies and deals with a lot of the Apogee Solstice/Moon War mess on a grander scale courtesy of the consequences of previous fics. COMING EVENTUALLY.
we burn to babylon (7/10)- Venom (movies) A fic so canon compliant and canon complicit that the audience is me and only me and no one else because who else will accept the crimes against comics canon I'm about to commit in the name of Sony movie accuracy in adapting elements. A novelization of a fourth movie based on a smattering of different comic arcs but mostly The King In Black that only exists in my head. The Goncharov of fanfiction because I am not kidding when I say I am TRYING to write something that could feasibly be the fourth movie we'll never get as a fun writing experiment. I want to be Matthew Stover and the Revenge of the Sith novel so bad I look stupid, but my GOD I am having fun and maybe other people will too. (CURRENTLY ON HIATUS)
bid the ground goodbye- (7/18) The Amazing Digital Circus. The unauthorized sequel film to the series, because if I'm not writing Canon Divergence, I'm writing unauthorized sequels. It is a fic about the Macroverse and the Digital Circus coming together to pop the AI bubble. You can't prove there's allegory in it.
a bridge and not a goal- (0/10) Bleach. Eight months after Yhwach's defeat, a murder brings Urahara and Hiyori back to Soul Society, forcing Urahara to contend with his past and prior actions and Hiyori to contend with her views about the world and Urahara, himself. (TBA)
I may dip and write some one-shots, but it's unlikely I would ever actually talk about those because they happen so infrequently it's like either I write it or I don't why get anyone's hopes up.
Beneath the cut, you will find a masterpost of both my long series and what I consider my personal favorites of my non-series fics if my body of work is overwhelming, but you'd like to try something shorter than a million words. I write mostly gen fic, either canon divergent or canon compliant (sometimes fix-it), character-driven, redemption-flavored stories. Most are also all shorter than 100k by, like, a huge margin. It's all I seem to write now, but there was a time when I was young and innocent.
Cree Deeproots saves Molly on the Glory Run Road and changes everything for the Mighty Nein, and, in return, the Mighty Nein changes everything for her.
A very, very AU and canon divergent retelling of Campaign Two and soon Campaign Three with both new plots and twists on old ones.
The OG Fic Hydra. The Creedemption series. The 1.8 million word and rising nightmare. Shortened to LitMoR.
While the series has ships, they are not the primary focus and do not curtail the importance of the platonic relationships. All ships are the canon ships, just substituting Shadowgast for Widomauk, and a Cree/OC ship.. and several random crackships that I don't think are worth explaining. You'll experience them.
This is not chronological order, but rather the order they should be read in to maintain the integrity of how the story is built.
once upon a damn-you-all. (600k+)- Cree saves Molly on the Glory Run Road and turns Campaign Two fully on its head. So AU that after the Iron Shepherds plot NO major plot events from the original campaign occur until the sequel. Shortened to OUADYA.
steal the rhymes from all the reasons. (3k) A missing scene between Chapter 33 and 34 of OUADYA.
there's something divine in the way screams can sound (12k)- While you were discovering the merits of found family, Lucien was having a full mental breakdown in Cognouza.
as in the painted parlor, ophelia dreams (14k)- A story about a complicated female character from Zemni Fields with a difficult past who sacrifices everything for ambition and how that kickstarts a plot.
all of the dreamers defying convention (14k)- The Nein venture into Aeor while underleveled and get their asses kicked.
the lightning in chains (3k)- Additional Yasha scenes from all of the dreamers defying convention.
you can't deny high noon (900k+)- The Nein free Lucien from the Astral Sea in some sort of a way, experience canon plots at 5x danger level, are stalked by a cult, and try to figure their shit out before they can face the Somnovem. Also it's the longest fic in the CR AO3 tag isn't that special? Referred to as YCDHN.
seeking an original sin (130k)- Lucien is left unsupervised, makes a deal with a demon, gathers a crack team to undo it, and learns a little about himself along the way.
you and the sea have had a fine and fitting vengeance (40k)- The Mighty Nein, the Tombtakers, and the Fine Print meet.
when it's time to pay the piper all their failings fall to you (10k)- Lucien gets a lot of unsolicited advice.
who says cuckoos are wrong? (15k)- A story about a complicated female character from Zemni Fields with a difficult past who sacrifices everything for ambition and how that kickstarts a plot.
this is the time when the gods have their say (8k)- Seven years after the fall of Cognouza, Cree and Caduceus investigate an attack on the Air Ashari and learn some unfortunate things.
Heaven and Hellβs sordid history comes calling with a vengeance as Charlie Morningstar and her friends find themselves more involved than they ever expected to be.
It turns out desiring change in Hell and Heaven comes with a great deal of consequences, tribulations, and cursed rose gardens.
A Hellaverse fanfic series that goes AU after Hazbin Hotel 1x06 and Helluva Boss 2x10. The second Fic Hydra that hit the towers. Shorted to Roseverse.
Ships are... complicated. Mostly Vaggie/Charlie, Angel/Husk, Cherri/Pentious, Baxter/Niffty... and a giant complicated polycule of Lucifer/Lilith/Alastor/Vox/Velvette. Like LitMoR the ships aren't really the focus and a lot of emphasis is put on every kind of bond over simply romantic ones.
FULLY COMPLETE AS OF JUNE 2026
the things you hold most dear may not survive another day (5k)- The Extermination hits. Angel and Husk have a bad time. Mostly Husk.
in dreaming even death may die (92k)- Lucifer tries to make a bargain with Heaven to help the hotel, Alastor's debts come due, the Vees scheme with Adam, and Husk and Angel are in a bodyguard AU.
we'll burn like stars (3k)- Lucifer and Lilith try to figure out what comes next.
a little kindness and a guillotine (13k)- Vox makes a deal with the devil and ends up catching feels. And getting a new job.
if my love is tomorrow, i've forgotten yesterday (10k)- Angel figures some shit out in a post-Valentino world.
when we need to escape, we've got nowhere (9k)- Angel and Husk adopt a puppy.
red, red roses and dead things (13k)- Alastor tries to run away from his problems, but the PTSD demons are stronger.
our wolves don't live in fear (77k)- A locked room murder mystery with class warfare and family drama.
so the wheel can keep turning (21k)- Vox, Alastor, Lucifer, and Lilith go a date that's kinda also like psychological warfare.
we are a song of mercy and laughter- (7k)- Charlie reels from the aftermath of the party and gets appreciated.
one more harvest left to rot (27k)- Lucifer, Alastor, and Vox go to Wrath to seek answers and end up getting caught up with a vigilante.
the glass mountains gleaming (4k)- Velvette is Down Bad for the Queen of Hell.
an oleander under the skin (8k)- Baxter and Niffty go on their first date.
eldritch and uncharted shores (980k)- Charlie and company vs the impending apocalypse via the power of friendship and incredible violence.
This is by no means a "definitive" list of all my best works and honestly I probably i included way too many, but they're the ones I'm most proud of and enjoy rereading.
ALIAS
the other side of the berlin wall (gen, 2k, one-shot)- A fic that answers the question: "Quentin Tarantino what the FUCK were your acting choices in that scene in After Six." I am INSANE about Cole and Sark's subtextual dynamic.
THE AMAZING DIGITAL CIRCUS
bid the ground goodbye (gen, ongoing, multichapter)- In which a new GenAI invades the Digital Circus, forcing the gang to seek out help from their human counterparts in what is kinda like my own personal Space Jam.
BLEACH
by the time you see the patterns (it's a hundred times too late) (Gen, 6k, one-shot)- A character study for Hiyori disguised as a thinly veiled attempt to get Urahara's ass kicked.
like headstones in his eyes (Gen, 4k, one-shot)- A character study for Urahara disguised as Yoruichi attempting to beat his ass after the Askin fight.
CRITICAL ROLE
why the omens were ignored (Gen, 1k, one-shot)- Lucien goes a little nuts in the flesh tunnel after Cree's death and talks to himself.
and i have no love left for cruel river eyes (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- Original Flavor Creedemption! Or a fic that explores Cree surviving, meeting Kingsley, healing from her trauma, and becoming a pirate. The shades of LitMoR are lurking in the fringes.
the bits and pieces of the past (Gen, 7k, one-shot)- Kingsley gets targeted by the Claret Orders. Beau becomes his lawyer.
trapped in the walls of my skin (Gen, 4k, one-shot)- A fic that covers the absolutely traumatizing ordeal that was Lucien's resurrection and how much body horror had to be involved therein. Because no one was talking about it.
like a true fisher king (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- Molly and Lucien battle in the center of the mind for dominance in what is so aggressively Evangelion that I bet Taliesin felt the disturbance in the force.
the happy is expensive but the ever after's free (Gen, 2k, one-shot)- Fjord goes to the Gentleman to ask for his blessing in marrying Jester. I feel like I always get complimented on how I wrote the Gentleman in this.
the shattered stage is set (and there's a role you must fulfill) (Gen, 100k, multichapter)- My first really big plotty fic and boy was this the early stages of my ability to plot anything. I still love it immensely. It's a nice little multiverse shenanigans adventure story involving Kingsley, Molly, and Lucien trying to stop the Chained Oblivion. If LitMoR is too daunting and you want something that's more "canon" and also has similar themes, I'd read it. Also Jayne's Oblivion Priestess form fucks severely.
the line is fine between the saint and sinner (Gen, 7k, one-shot)- Lucien goes after Vess and gets utterly obliterated, the Nein rescue him believing he's Molly, and Lucien spends a week recovering from trauma trying to pretend he's TOTALLY this Molly guy really while waiting for the Tombtakers to come get him.
may your princes understand you (may your wolves get out alive) (Gen, 6k, one-shot)- In which Jester gets held captive by a mad fey, Artagan plays the hero, and Frumpkin does something of value for the narrative.
what the promised land would promise me (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- Continuing my agenda of "from the Tombtakers' perspective, the Nein SUCK SO HARD on like a visceral level," enjoy the intuit charge massacre from the Tombtakers' perspective.
every dream i dream is founded in what came before (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- Lucien hones his god complex in the middle of a boring church service in the Claret Orders.
we take our turns on the altar (Gen, 1k, one-shot)- Caduceus gets pinned down in some rubble in Aeor. Cree decides to stay behind with him until the rest of their groups catch up. This too was early stage LitMoR.
a better man (a better monster) (Gen, 2k, one-shot) The Nein love each other (threat).
ripped from the seams of another tales' glories (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- A fic about the Tombtakers being really confused by the Nein, which starts out funny and gets REAL SAD. REAL QUICK.
they call me a twisted reflection (Gen, 5k, one-shot)- Lucien survives intact after the Cognouza fight. He has a lot to deal with. Like his friends being dead and it's all his fault.
give me black cat bones as the clock strikes thirteen (Cree/Lucien, 8k, one-shot)- A spooky season Tombtakers caper fic about a town under the thrall of a vampire. I love writing fics about the Tombtakers just being young and stupid and not evil yet.
you will be the king no longer when we reach the glade (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- Another Lucien Lives fic, but this time with Jester focus. I think she could have fixed him, personally.
i may be more scared we'll win that i am worried we'll lose (Widomauk, 3k, one-shot)- My current obsession with the Venom movies notwithstanding, it was really easy to make Lucien and Molly jokes about the whole vibe going on in LTBC. And it's just delightful. In this fic, Caleb survives a Rend Mind, gets a Head!Molly to talk to, and things get emotional and sad and then happy again.
and maybe it's madness, but what's wrong with madness? (Gen, 2k, one-shot)- A Jayne-centric fic that acts as a coda to Bar Room Blitz.
where the waves hold cold dominion, sand and stone can catch no claim (Gen, 9k, one-shot)- Every possible iteration of Threeleaves I have probably done. In this one, Kingsley is Lucien's twin brother and has a lot to say about the subject when the Nein arrive on Darktow with Molly in tow.
we are what we are and we will never mourn (Gen, 4k, one-shot)- A Mighty Nein Evil AU where they get the band back together to go deal with Lucien.
and each falling star changed the song of the sky (Gen, 6k, one-shot)- Percy and Vex adopt the Tombtakers and save the world.
you shall be the unmarked grave (Gen, 3k, one-shot) This fic is actually LitMoR canon as it is exactly my headcanon for how Molly was found by the circus (before the comic came out and jossed it). I love it so much that I'm glad it can live on in an AU.
call me your destiny, call me a liar (Gen, 5k, one-shot)- a fic where Molly and Lucien BOTH survive post-Cognouza, Molly is deeply traumatized by the experience, Lucien is a guestage in the Blooming Grove, and they both might be able to learn something from each other.
said the fool to his majesty, dethroned (Gen, 2k, one-shot)- Another 'how to make a Kingsley' fic. This one is a little kinder.
how many miles to babylon? (Gen, 5k, one-shot)- The Moonweaver offers Jester a test to redeem Artagan after TravelerCon. Artagan's enemies get involved and now Jester has to rescue him. Platonic Tam Lin yay!
polishing the apple eris threw to shake the dead leaves down (Cree/Lucien, 4k, one-shot)- Creecien, but make it Locked Tomb.
i usually run when the world starts ending (Jester/Artagan, 5k, one-shot)- Artagan deals with the consequences of godhood rules, being in love with Jester, and having a moral crisis while being too fey to function. I have been told this is one of the most Ghibli things I've ever written.
HELLAVERSE
carnage is not that conducive to passion (Stolitz, 7k, one-shot)- In which Blitz is used to lure Stolas into a trap, they argue about being broken up while actively being tortured, and violence and romance ensues.
all my bones want to taste your wicked wishes (ValAngel, 2k, one-shot)- A fic that explores Val and Angel's first meeting and the odd power dynamic between them given Angel was technically in Hell a lot longer.
this single night of pure lunacy (Gen, 19k, one-shot)- Human AU (sort of). Based loosely on Late Night With the Devil. In which Vox makes a deal with a demon in a swamp, believes this will have NO consequences for him, and then ten years later has his entire late night show implode around his ears.
HIGHLANDER
the piece of history that's been denied (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- A cute little story about how Joe and Methos first met.
HIS DARK MATERIALS (TV)
how the west was taken (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- A little coda to the end of 2x03. In which Lee has a flashback and he and Hester try to recover from getting tortured together.
the winds's full of snow and the sky's full of light (Lee/Iorek, 2k, one-shot) A little platonic Lee/Iorek fic involving trust exercises and wound tending. And Hester quipping.
INUYASHA/YASHAHIME
if i had a choice (you know i wouldn't fight this war) (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- Zero traps an injured Sesshoumaru in a cave with his daughters to see what happens. Awkward family bonding happens, which was not her intent.
the best's not happened yet (Gen, 1k, one-shot)- A cute little bonding scene between Rin and Jaken while Rin is pregnant with the twins.
this is the bargain i can't escape from (Gen, 1k, one-shot)- A fic that tries to explain things like "how the fuck were Kagome and Inuyasha surviving in a fucking hell dimension" and "wait can't Sesshoumaru walk into said hell dimension any time he wants?" while also pointing and laughing at him for sucking at being the main character.
and you're her lamb to slaughter (SessRin, 3k, one-shot)- I'm pretty sure the main intent of this fic was spite against SessRin haters and trying to prove a point about the fact that RIN HAS ALL THE POWER IN THAT RELATIONSHIP EMOTIONALLY, IF NOT PHYSICALLY. I stand by it.
so where the hell's odysseus? (Gen, 900, one-shot)- Coda to the season one finale. Sesshoumaru's A+ heroism decisions and bad parenting at work at their finest.
who we love, who we lose (Gen, 1k, one-shot)- I really, really believed Sesshoumaru was going to die and Towa was going to bring him back with Tenseiga. THAT DID NOT HAPPEN. But here's what it would be like if it did.
your descent was prophesized (Gen, 5k, one-shot)- This was based on some wild mass guessing that ultimately was wrong, but I still really liked the idea of it. God we were robbed of Towa being the True Wielder of tenseiga. And Dog Mommy meeting her grandkids.
in case you don't live forever (SessRin, 26k, multichapter)- Rin saves Sesshoumaru, lives the life of a YA protagonist and a Hayao Miyazaki protagonist simultaneously, and I still think this fic is fully canon compliant and you can't tell me otherwise.
LOST
the boards across the windows mean there's nothing left to see (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- Missing scene from the series finale, because I felt like it was a CRIME that Ben and Juliet after all their history never interacted again after her betrayal. I figured they deserved a moment to reconcile before everyone passes on.
MARVEL (FILMS, VARIOUS UNIVERSES)
we burn to babylon (Eddie/Venom, ongoing, multichapter)- in which symbiotes stealing swords from their godking and declaring who should rule the Hive is not a basis for a system of government, Eddie Brock is suffering, Venom may or may not be dead, and Chris writes the tie-in novelization for a fourth movie that doesnβt exist as a writing exercise.
broke the back of the sky (gen, 19k, multichapter)- a fic that asks "what if Rocket wasn't in a coma for 85% of GotG Vol 3?" Involves me stealing an entire plot from an episode of LOST, Rocket having the worst time, and absolutely no furry animal people getting OBLITERATED.
sunshine came softly (gen, 3k, one-shot)- Rocket and Mantis bond post- GotG Vol2. One of my earliest fics posted on AO3! And still actively deserving of the popularity it has, imo. It's really cute.
you will still be here tomorrow (gen, 2k, one-shot)- Missing scene from GotG Vol 2 between Yondu and Rocket in the Ravager prison where Yondu fully reads him for filth. Again.
the lies that men told me (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- Rocket and Nebula deal with some complications while on a mission during the Blip timeskip. Thoroughly jossed by Vol 3, but still holds up despite that somehow.
THE OWL HOUSE
a door shuts, a key turns, and the world is lost (Gen, 3k, one-shot)- I wrote this after the season two finale and well, I think I ended up assuming The Collector would be more menacing than they actually were, but I still love this fic in terms of just OH GOD KING, BABY.
PUSHING DAISIES
our very own happy ending (Olive/Alfredo, 4k, one-shot) - Bryan Fuller owes me damages for these two not getting together and I decided to fix it long before it became clear that it wasn't happening. Unique in that I tried very hard to replicate the narrator's voice.
STEVEN UNIVERSE
(you cannot) silence ticking clocks (gen, 2k, one-shot)- Peridot tries to handle grief for the first time. Lapis reveals herself to be a little goth in the philosophical sense.
sing something else (gen, 4k, one-shot)- AU of the film where Spinel comes to Little Homeworld first, rejuvenates Peridot, and leaves Bismuth and Lapis to try and fix her. Seriously though how DID she get that drill??
SUPERNATURAL
leave the face cards on the table (gen, 2k, one-shot)- Fics so old they could be entering elementary school. This was written post Changing Channels and before Hammer of the Gods and was a sort of hope for how Gabriel might come into the narrative disguised as a character study.
count your blessings against the thunder (gen, 3k, one-shot)- Every SPN fic I have ever written has been a tragic pipe dream of what I wanted S5 to be and wasn't. This is no different. It's a cute little scene of Cas, Anna, and Gabriel deciding to be rebels.
the things i'm not obeying (gen, 4k, one-shot)- Probably my only canon compliant SPN fic. Since Season Four didn't have a Trickster episode like 2, 3, and 5 did, one has to wonder exactly what Gabriel was doing. Also I still think the events of Yellow Fever were fully Gabriel on stealth mode.
those wayward sons better carry on (gen, 5k, one-shot) - Castiel seeks out Gabriel to go find a MacGuffin to help stop the apocalypse. God, I wanted Castiel and Gabriel to have adventures together. Meta Fiction was a lie written to torment me specifically for having the audacity to write this fic.
YELLOWJACKETS
turn the seasons round, my darling (MistyNat, 2k, one-shot) Tam Lin meets Orpheus and Eurydice meets Season Two finale fix-it.

The Amazing Digital Circus has been raided by a new and advanced version of Generative AI that promises a wider, expanded world, a connection to the wider world via the Internet, and maybe, just maybe, a way to fix Abstraction. The problem is itβs a devilβs bargain that threatens more than it saves and the gang are becoming increasingly aware that there's a lot more going on than what it appears and they're going to need a lot of additional help if they want to figure out the truth.
Abby has a problem.
Sheβs just received a desperate message begging her to reach out to five people sheβs never met because if she doesnβt bring them together an entire digital world may come unraveled. It shouldnβt be her problem, exceptβ¦ It kinda is. After all the request came from herself (sort of).
Once more, six strangers will have to come together, united in a common adventure; once more, six friends will have to fight to save their home, because if the curtain falls on the Digital Circus, it may fall for everyone.
A βsequelβ to the series featuring an ensemble cast, Platonic Soulmates, action and adventure, the power of love and friendship popping the AI bubble, and slow burn fix-it for the finale. Mostly a gen fic with some incidental romance and QPR funnybunny. Currently at 8/18 chapters and updates frequently.
I've seen a bunch of "fandom etiquette" posts on my dash today and I'm going to say something that is maybe going to be unpopular but;
The absolutely pervasive mentality that unwanted criticism or critique shouldn't be given and should be ignored is why fans of color don't stay in fan spaces.
And I am not going to mince words here:
A lot of you are racist. A lot of your fan works are racist.
That might have been difficult to hear. And if it was, you should probably reflect on why that was.
"Fandom etiquette" has created a space where fans of color either bite our tongues and eventually leave or say something, get dogged on, and then eventually leave.
So much of "fandom etiquette" seems to be about insulating creatives from Feeling Bad and hostility to any kind of negative feedback is a pretty big contributor to why bigotry festers in these spaces.
#imo the potluck analogy applies- it would be rude to critique someone's icing technique at a potluck bc it wasn't as good as at the bakery #but if they had decorated their cupcakes w hate symbols it wouldn't be rude to tell them that's gross and gtfo #in fact it would be inappropriate to NOT say anything in that situation #or to complain that another guest who did point it out was 'ruining everyone's potluck' #and pointing out racism in fan works is 100% the second thing not the first! (via destructions-daughter)
There's also a tendency to conflate anyone who critiques general trends with bad faith randos. Like, there is fandom behavior that is 100% racist and should be talked about, but there are also trends of racist/sexist/ableist preferences.
If I say "I am uncomfortable with fandom's tendency to write trans men as feminine and submissive" I do not mean "I think every person who writes feminine submissive trans men should be chased with pitchforks". I don't even mean "any cis-person who writes feminine or submissive trans men should be chased with pitchforks". I mean "I would like writers to seriously think about why this is so common, why they write that, and if it fairly and genuinely engages with what it means to be a trans man, or if they just think it's hot when submissive people have vaginas and didn't want to write omegaverse of m/f".
Similarly, when people say "fandom is systemically less interested in black characters, less willing to give flat black characters rich fanon than flat white characters, and less interested in black characters in ships", the response is not to explain why you, personally, just happen to like popular white guy in that fanon. Your job is to look at yourself and ask if you tend to "just happen to be more interested" in the popular white guy across fandoms, be honest, and start unpacking that. Sometimes it's easier to love the flat character who's already getting 10,000 fics with headcanons and art and meta.
If somebody says "I wish there were more gluten free options at the potluck. I hate always showing up and not finding anything I can eat*", they are not asking you to throw your cake in the trash and weep. They do not want to hear your long speech about how actually this is your grandmother's recipe, and you've tried it with rice flour actually, but it just didn't work. You think about what you can do, and you listen to how they feel.
*The metaphor here not being that you can't read fic that isn't "good rep". The metaphor here is that it can be isolating to be in spaces where nobody is trying to make sure people like you are welcome.

I'm thinking about this because of the post I just reblogged, but when people talk about not wanting to write F/M or F/F (or I suppose about female main characters in general, though people rarely talk about non-shipping stories) because they don't want to think about misogyny, it feels like some people think women's entire lives are about experiencing misogyny.
Queer men can be written about with the recognition that their entire lives are not about the experience of homophobia--in fact, many slash fics don't engage at all with homophobia--and neurodivergent charaters can be written about without making their entire experience being about ableism, but suddenly we talk about female characters, and some people are unable to conceptualize that women exist outside of misogyny.
If you don't want to engage with misogyny in your stories, you can just write a story that doesn't engage with misogyny, without erasing all of the women. Every day, countless women do countless things without Engaging With Misogyny.
If you don't want to think about gendered intimate partner violence in your story, then simply write a story that doesn't engage with the possibility of gendered intimate partner violence.
If you don't want to think about gender-based professional discrimination in your story, then simply write a story that doesn't involve gender-based professional discrimination.
The coffee shop AU, the plotty fic, the smutty oneshot, none of those necessitate engaging with misogyny if you don't want to--even if they're about female characters.
