#wrote this today #((jily in the wardrobe 🤭))

watching GoF for the millionth time and only now noticing the modern notebooks and loose leaf paper?! even the paper that comes out of the goblet is loose leaf 😭 where tf is the parchment?!

Fun fact that I think you'll love: I googled "Ao3 jily" cause I had to look up something and one of the 8 related searches under "people also search for" was "Eternal Summer ao3 jily"

Woah this is crazy!!! I wish there was a way to tell those searchers they need an AO3 account to read it 🥲 I’ve been in such a slump but this cheered me up immensely, thank you!! 🫶

having a little breakthrough with the structure of ES that has me feeling very excited!!

formerlympp

“Think of it like real-life improv.”

The notion would be laughable if Lily hadn’t consumed so much wine. As it were, the roommates were two-thirds of their way through a second bottle of Shiraz—a gift from Marlene’s ex—and Lily was currently feeling every drop. If anyone else had suggested it, wine-drunk or not, Lily would have scoffed at the idea. But Marlene was an actress too, or at least, attempting to be one, just as Lily was, so she knew the suggestion came from a genuine, albeit strange, place, rather than mocking commentary that she could have expected (and would have received) from her sister and ex-best friend.

It was a regular Friday-night tradition of theirs to scour Tinder and consult each other about which way to swipe. Some nights, they got more liberal with their right swipes as the wine bottle emptied, and other nights were the opposite. Tonight fell in the former category.

“I don’t know, Mar,” Lily said, topping off their glasses with the last of the bottle. “What kind of guy would have this in his profile? The only thing in his profile, mind, besides an apparently made-up career at… Sleekeazy, whatever the fuck that is supposed to be.”

“He is fit, though,” Marlene countered, and Lily couldn’t disagree.

Despite the entirety of “James, 29”’s profile being blank, the handful of photographs uploaded painted a rather appealing picture—a couple of which included a very shirtless man on a football field, and she was certainly a good enough actress to fake her way through an interest in football for abs like that.

“Besides,” Marlene continued, now thumbing through an app on her own phone, “what’s the worst that can happen?”

“Besides being murdered, you mean?”

Marlene waved the comment away, as if to say well, obviously, but what else? “Swipe right, Evans. Live a little.”

#obsessed #jily fanart

how do you feel about ai in fanfic? in the sense that does it ever frustrate / discourage you ? (esp all the ai slop that I see everywhere). Im genuinely curious because it has affected my work and career (in the way i do things) and Im curious if it has affected how you write or plan or even read? I wont lie and say I haven’t used AI (not a writer but in other parts of my life) but it does frustrate me sometimes, especially how dependent the world seems to suddenly have gotten on it. Anyways I was just curious on a writers perspective of AI

Generative AI does not belong in fanfic/fandom/creative spaces, full stop!! I don't and won't use it for any part of the creative writing process. (That literally defeats the whole point!!) A bunch of my work was scraped off AO3, which is why my stuff now requires a log-in, and I can't lie, that was a dark time mentally for me. Like I almost left. It just felt so violating to know that what I had put out there for fellow fans like me had been used like that.

I actually don't see much (if any?) AI generated work around fandom, which I take as a sign that I've curated my spaces very well. And maybe this is aloof of me, but I don't perceive AI generated writing as good enough to warrant feeling frustrated or discouraged by it existing out there. Like I know there's AI slop out there on Amazon, etc., but it's just junk, you know? It's not copyrightable, it's not good, it feels very scammy, people widely reject it. Frustration over it is natural, but it's not worth feeling discouraged over!

What I am much more discouraged and tired over is how people trust it too much, especially in professional settings. Thankfully I'm in a profession where there's been more guardrails around its use, so most of the people I interact with approach generative AI with a healthy amount of skepticism. But I still see a fair amount of work produced by generative AI, and it is almost always at least half, if not more than half, plain wrong. It's genuinely so tiring to have to spend so much time correcting it and then explaining to people why the AI was wrong and the human isn't. I had a genuine jump scare recently when someone in a group setting was talking about how they were too busy to do their online class and so they were having ChatGPT do all their work for them, and I was gobsmacked. It's wrong all the time!! It hallucinates all the time!! I've messed around with it before to see my own thoughts on it, and I got so annoyed so fast at how much I had to correct it and coach it just to try to get what I wanted — yet people are out here raw dogging ChatGPT like it's God in their computer. It's insane!! I feel like I'm going insane.

What it's really highlighting for me is the rapid education/critical thinking divide we're seeing — these days, being able to assess and evaluate AI generated material is more important than ever, yet more and more people are letting technology turn their brains to mush. It's very frightening and disheartening, to be sure. But I also feel very fortunate in being surrounded both in real life and in fandom by highly intelligent, talented people, and that reminds me that there are truly so many people like us out there who understand all of AI's limitations and prioritize human critical thought. (And who want thoughtful writing written by humans!!)

#ask #didn't even get into all the ethical + environmental issues with gen AI but obvi those are also reasons why I'm highly critical of it.

Hey, I’ve been rereading some of your stories and I don’t know why I’m only noticing it now, but Girl… what is your beef with Ravenclaw men 💀🤣 Bertram Aubrey, Chuck Davies, Garrytt Ollivander (was Lane Abbott also in Ravenclaw?), it’s giving strong dislike, bahaha ;)

Bahahaha I'm cackling over this 😂 I'm pretty sure it started out accidental, in the sense that I needed a non-Slytherin "enemy" if that makes sense? Putting all the enemies in Slytherin was a little too cliché, and this was very non-serious beef, and Hufflepuffs were too nice, so Ravenclaw it was. And then that sort of snowballed into Ravenclaw men having an obnoxiously pompous know-it-all stereotype. Not all Ravenclaw men, to be clear!! There are sweet, kind, well-intentioned nerds in Ravenclaw too — they just don't have beef with James 😅 It's not a personal beef by any means, I very much have some Ravenclaw tendencies, but the "stereotype" James dislikes (i.e., the obnoxiously pompous know-it-all) is definitely ~inspired~ by many obnoxiously pompous know-it-all men I've encountered in school and work lmao 🫠

#ask #lane abbott was hufflepuff btw!#also to be clear I think the other houses think the same about Gryffindor 😅#their stereotype would probably be 'arrogant self-important self-righteous git' and they wouldn't always be wrong! 🤣#every house has their perceptions and judgments about the others
