Wei Wuxian: The Wen Remnants? No, you misheard. These are the Wei Remnants
Jin Guangshan: Do you think we're stupid!?
Wei Wuxian: That's a trick question. They can't be Wens because, according to you, the only Wens left were soldiers and cultivaters. These guys are clearly elderly and healers. Meet my older sister Wei Qing
Wen Qing with a slightly different hair style: This one is honored to meet such esteemed cultivators
Wei Wuxian: And my twin (but still younger) brother, Wei Ning
Fierce corpse Wen Ning with makeup poorly applied: Thank you for visiting our humble village
Jin Guangshan: You except everyone here to believe your blatant lies!?
Wei Wuxian: Everyone here pretends to believe your blatant lies about only having one bastard. Why is your lie so much more believable than mine?

regardless of you being queer or not, did your parents ever gave you the "if you turn out to be gay it would be fine" talk, before you ever had the chance to say anything on your own about that?

because it happened to me and im wondering if this was a product of the ongoing cultural change around gay issues. before i ever had the chance to say to my parents "i am this" my mom was already sitting me aside to tell me "if there is anything you want to tell me, i want you to know ill accept you no matter what"
I think my parents with how they acted alone would have given me the courage to come out of the closet. If I would have had one that is. They actually thought I was at least bi and into my best friend at the time, which awkward to hear later, but they accepted it fully and suportet me nontheless.
2 things my parents like to say and show as well.
First is. They would be ok with us building our own actual harems if it meant we were happy.
Second, my mother has bi tendencies and openly is speakign about them and my father more then once told me that he is straight as far as he knows (as in, there had been no man that turned him on before, but he doesn't know if there won't be)
But my parents did fundamentally something right with me, because when the then partner of a friend found out she is trans during corona and came out to me (and other friends of their) they both were of the opinion I had the best reaction. They thought I would at least make a small fuss of "are you sure?" "How do you know" etc. The truth is, it didn't matter, the only thing I needed to know were pronouns and a name and as she hadn't been sure then, we stuck with my nickname for her.
I've seen a lot of ff writers apologize for their fic being "self-indulgent" which baffles me cause like is that not the entire concept of fanfiction?????
SAY IT WITH ME FOLKS, "FANFICTION IS SUPPOSED TO BE SELF-INDULGENT"
It's actually fascinating. I sit there and put hours of time into something that expresses who I am, what I value and what I wish for. Or I put the same time into exploring something uncomfortable, something I deem important enough to put into the world.
And in the end I have a painting, a song, a book or even a fanfiction. Because in the end every act of creation born of creativity and not necessity is an act of self-indulgence. And that is ok, it always was and always will be.

Tim: Dick, no one else is even in the running. please be so fr right now
Damian: What are you arguing about?
Dick: Damian! Damian can do it! Heād be great at it.
Tim: No, Damianās gonna follow his paternal grandfathers lead and be a doctor. Everyone only has to take on ONE element of Bruce. Try again
Jason: They are arguing about which one of us should be the newest representative for the Justice League for when Bruce finally conks it.
Damian: That would be an honor no? Richard you would be a competent ruler.
Cas: Leader
Damian: Whatever. I assume Timothy will be taking on WE in the event of fatherās passing, so wouldnāt Jason also be in the running?
Tim: No i called dibs on Jason
Jason: What? What are you talking about. You canāt call dibs on me. What if I want to run the Justice League?
Tim: You donāt. You are going to run the Wayne foundation. Take from the rich give to the poor. Modern day Robin HoodāVery on brand for you. Donāt worry I have the contracts and everything ready.
Jason: ā¦
Jason: Ok deal. Sorry Dickie, looks like your going to rule the interplanetary alliance :P
Dick: I donāt wanna!
Tim: What, do you wanna switch?
Dick: Well, noā
Tim: Also youāre the only one that makes sense.
Dick: Iāll do anything else, please thatās too much responsibility.
Tim: Okay. Be Batman.
Dick: ā¦
Dick: Yea never mind. Running the Justice League wonāt be that hard.
Damian: Wait so who will be Batman?
Cass: Dibs
Damian, Tim, Jason, Dick: Fair
Bruce, whoās been sitting at the dining room table with them the whole time: Are you done dividing my assets and responsibilities between yourselves now? Can we eat our dinner?
the fact that we only have āherculean taskā and āsisyphean taskā feels so limiting. so hereās a few more tasks for your repertoire
icarian task: when you have a task you know youāre going to fail at anyways, so why not have some fun with it before it all comes crashing down
cassandrean task: when you have to deal with people you KNOW wonāt listen to you, despite having accurate information, and having to watch them fumble about when you told them the solution from the start (most often witnessed in customer service)
feel free to chime in i ran out of ideas much faster than i anticipated
Promethean task: opposite of a Cassandraean task. You have the right information, and SOMEONE has to share it. But it's all in the delivery and if you're the person to identify the problem you WILL be hated forever.
Oedipal Task: (1) Attempting to avoid an unspeakably awful outcome and in doing so creating the circumstances that will bring it about.
(2) Trying to solve an problem and discovering that you are in fact the problem you are trying to solve.

the idea of the bats all being incredible actors is one thing. the idea of them being incredible actors, popular victims of ransom, and annoying as shit is an entirely other, spectacular thing.
jason: "-and then, his father was drawn to his side as the blood poured out from his wounds."
kidnapper #1: "oh god, was he breathing?"
jason, trying his absolute hardest not to burst out laughing: "it was too late. the life was extinguished from his eyes, nothing left but a sorry display of former wonder..."
kidnapper #2, tears running down his face: "fuck... that's terrible."
nightwing, over comms, wheezing his fucking heart out: "are-are you dramatically reciting your own fucking death?"
jason: "his father cried over his body, like a little bitch, he'd never see his son smile again--"
kidnapper #1: "I gotta call my kid, man."
jason: "--only in the photographs that lined the staircase."
red robin: "I can't, holy shit, I'm fucking crying--"
nightwing: "I'm--I'm nearly 100% positive B doesn't have a single photo of us on that staircase."
_
their attention away from the door to your left. you have to make sure they can't hear it unlock after red robin is done with the code."
batman: "damian, I need you to get
red robin, muffled, heard from bruce's comms: "I just need another 5!"
batman: "he needs another 5 minutes. we'll get you out."
damian: "(sigh) fine."
damian, taking a deep breath:
damian, shrieking: "ŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠH!! SOMEBODY PLEASE, PLEASE GET ME OUT OF HERE!"
kidnapper #1: "what the--"
damian: "these--these ropes are hurting my WRISTS and it's COLD and--AND WHERE'S MY DAAAAAAAAAAAD!!"
kidnapper #2: "maybe they wouldn't hurt if you'd just stay still!"
dick: "oh god... whatever you do, don't look behind you."
kidnapper #1: "I'm not gonna listen to--"
dick, suddenly gasping, his eyes wide with fear: "so many eyes... i-ive never seen that many teeth. the shadows are breathing with its heartbeat... I can feel it's teeth grinding through the walls."
kidnapper #2: "dude... what the fuck is he on about?"
kidnapper #1: "i-i don't know man, is this some kind of joke?!"
spoiler, quietly through the comms: "say it's a ghost SAY IT'S A GHOST!"
dick: "it's--it's telling me something... oh god... dad?"
red hood, bursting into laughter: "HOLY--HOLY SHIT--"
dick: "n-no it can't be, w-what happened to you? there's so much blood--"
kidnapper #1: "fuck this, tell the boss I quit. I ain't dealing with mr. conjuring over here."
red robin: "MR CONJURING--!"
dick: "DON'T LEAVE ME HERE, HE'S GOING FOR THE EYES OF THOSE WHO FEAR THE INEVITABLE!"
kidnapper #2: "WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN"

Being in the DC fandom is so strange because it claims it houses a large majority of ānerdsā and āoutcastsā yet by far is the most normative and strict fandoms Iāve ever been in. Constant policing on how media should be enjoyed and the level of which itās acceptable to be enjoyed at is weird as hell. You canāt just be a fan of one character or simply be a casual fan or youāre a ālarpā however if youāre well informed and make arguments using that information then youāre āpushing an agendaā and āyou should go and get a lifeā but also at the same time if you canāt name the specific pages and issues in which something youāre discussing happens- then youāre a larp. And you donāt read comics⦠š¬ big collection? Over consumption. Small collection? Larp. Itās like standing in a field of landmines and makes enjoying the content itself tedious- even if you want to discuss it there must be like 7000 other interpretations ready in your head like arsenal or then youāre just reading the surface level and not dissecting hence you are illiterate - but when you suggest something is implied but itās not widely known then youāre reading too deep. If I like a male character then Iām misogynistic but if I like a female character then Iām āonly doing it to spite XYZ manā if I like a white character then Iām racist if I like a POC then Iām forcing it. like and itās from both bloody sides too??? If I care about oppression then Iām milking it but if I ignore the oppression then Iām a bigot. What then is acceptable? Do I have to like the whole cast? Am I supposed to ignore privilege yet condemn oppression as if one can exist without the other?? Whatās the end goal??? Is there a guide to being palatable to this fandom?
Being ācorrectā in the fandom now seems a thousand times more momentous than actually enjoying the media in of itselfā¦Not to mention how you need to constantly be politically correct ontop of it. Like is living like this not exhausting?
Every argument sounds so irrational āI want more Jason comicsā then theyāll be one idiot āUhm,, look at the amount of Stephanie and duke comicsā or āJason fans are so greedy look at XYZ poc and woman characterā ITS A FALICY A FALSE EQUIVALENCE.
When I bring up wealth disparities thereās no need to compare it to the pay gap of women. You see how stupid that sounds? Both are SEPARATE issues that require SEPARATE conversations. To cram both into one would be doing a disservice to BOTH.
I am just slightly mental about this topic. Talking about anything that has to do with socioeconomics, culture, politics or any humanitarian issues with DC fans is like telling a toddler that something is bad and their first immediate response is the total and utter destruction of the system in its entirety without regard to the consequences. āIf thing is bad then thing must go. WHO cares what thingās role in society is if bad go then must be good.ā
How will abolition affect the economy? Abolition requires that jobs be taken away and men and women be left jobless. How will abolition affect society? Thereās suddenly a gaping hole where the thing used to be. Can a society truly recover if one of its pillars is suddenly and completely removed without any realistic or meaningful replacements? Or is the whole idea of abolition just a giant thoughtless act in which to show you care? How else can could one show they care other than being at the very extreme?
sound's like you had a hell of a ride there. Especially because you didn't even mention all the people who may enjoy DC and its characters from other media (like the many movies).
But I understand you and hey, if you ever want to have discussions, I can't promise to meet you where you are, but I can promise to listen and not judge unless you make an ass of yourself
A writer has some old unfinished fics in their fic folder, but don't actually want to write off as unfinished, because if they do then they'll never finish them for sure.
Is it better to post them anyway, even though they'll probably never be finished?
What would you do as a writer? Or prefer as a reader?
For records, I have some fics in these fandoms: Trolls, One piece, Lego monkey kid, Jason Todd (DC), Merlin, Pokemon submad.
As a reader I hate to start reading fanfics and finding out along the line that they aren't continued. As a writer I know it sometimes comes with the territory. I guess it depends if you were willing to have other adopt the fic and write from the point you stopped at.
maybe not, but there is always a chance and not everyone gets frustrated like me if a fic is not finished. But in the end, it is your decision, do you want to share, regardless of what may happen, or do you want to keep the unfinished work for yourself?
