Welcome to the City...

hello my beautiful flowers!!!!!!!

I also think if they are going to be in fandom they need to understand some things before they interact or even ask for a dni tag.

Fandom vs. Canon are two different markets. I'm calling them markets both for this analogy and because it's kind of true.

1. While their canon character is theirs to sell (and as a cc, it is a character you have to play when uploading online or else you need to not be in fandom spaces at all) once they successfully sell them people *are* going to take said character and do things you don't like, agree with, or want with that character.

2. You, as a CC are part of the daytime market, in fact you facilitate it. This is the market that is specifically for you and the only market you have control of. Once your character hits the Fandom Night Market, while you're still selling the official one, everyone in that market doesn't have to abide by any of your rules. Because they aren't in your market, they're in a different one.

3. The fandom night market is for the fans. It is not for you as a CC. And trying to enforce the night market is not something you want to do. Yes even with that content that you hate and would rather not exist. So long as no one brings it to your day market (tagging you or putting it somewhere you can see) then you need to be blocking and moving on.

4. The Night Market is going to have both things you like and dislike about your character. While it's fine to interact with things you like and block things you dislike. you as a CC need to understand that even if the person in question made it because they hate you, all you should be doing is blocking and never interacting with that person in the market again.

5. When making a dni tag, which is a grey area for both markets, you need to understand that if you then go and look through it that's on you.

The Night Market should not have to communicate with the Day Market to make their items. If they want you, specific, to interact with something that is the only space where they need to be following Day Market rules because they are specifically bringing it to you to see. And even then, if you don't like it you don't have to do anything with it.

mcyt fans NEED to learn that it is not normal for the creator of a media to be so enmeshed with the fandom

it is not healthy, and it's not safe, for both the creators and the audience members

"i think newer mcyt fans dont understand creators just interact with the fandom, that's just how it is" IT SHOULDN'T BE. the line between creator and fans should be CLEAR AND BORDERLINE IMPERMEABLE, because if not, that's how an unhealthy parasocial relationship is formed BOTH WAYS

the creators can appreciate the fan creations, they can interact with them in dedicated spaces like meet and greets, they can contact fans to showcase cool fanart in designated spaces (be it lives, and such) BUT THEY SHOULD NOT BE IN SPACES MEANT FOR FANS

not even because of boundaries or shipping or anything, there are people who do NOT want to be perceived, who do not want their headcanons or theories to be seen and talked about by the people making the official version of it. LITERALLY any person coming from other fandoms will tell you how fucking bizarre it is to go into mcyt spaces and see the ccs openling hanging around the fans' spaces giving their 2 cents of everything in there

mcyt ccs are chronically online and THEY need to learn that THEY are not supposed to be welcomed with open hands in all fanspaces

THEY need to learn to put a limit on what THEY look up about THEMSELVES online

I just. They're truly the opposite besties. And their dynamic is just so. SO. UGHHH.

He's darkness, she's light. She's life, he's death. She's hopeful, he's realistic. He's metal, she's nature. They're both leaders, but he began as a posh noble driven by vengeance and ended up as a kind and fair man. She began as an insecure and awkward girl and became the Voice of The Tempest, serene and unyielding, and also full of anger. She used to have to get him out of his workshop, but in the end, he was the one who regularly traveled to Zeprah to make sure she didn't overwork herself. At first, he was the one angry, and she still hadn't seen the world's horrors. Then he healed, became happy, and she was the one who became angry. Raishan, Vax. She said it herself in c3. "I have been angry for 30 years." And he was thriving. Of course, both of them grieved, but you can't compare it.

Despite being so different, their cities have parts of each other. Zeprah, like Whitestone, is full of innovation and complicated mechanisms that make the citizens' lives easier because it's the city Percy's more focused on after Whitestone. In return, Whitestone is full of vegetation and flowers because whenever the Voice of the Tempest comes to visit the Lord of Whitestone, everything blooms like it's spring.

SANS' PHRASING IS DIFFERENT BETWEEN ROUTES.

In weird route he says "draw you and your friends", but in normal route he only says "draw your friends".

SUSIE DOESN'T DRAW HERSELF IN NORMAL ROUTE.
