Yeagh

see it’s literally fine if we just do it safely

‘Daydreaming bubble’ by Kana Tanaka, 1998 

finally I have made this point before but you never really see anyone suggesting that fictional works based on existing public domain texts are on 'easy mode'. is it 'easier' to write something based on a copyrighted work than a public domain work? Of course it isn't.

A major strength of the transformative work is its ability to create dramatic irony. If a fanfiction's emotional resonance is dependent on being familiar with the source material that's not necessarily a bad thing. sometimes it's a sign that the author has done a really skillful job of engaging with said source material.

this is the correct way to feel about having a wasp's nest in your house.

oh fuck you were not kidding
