trying to get ur characters to be honest about their feelings is so hard like they would not fucking say that

#Charlie has the opposite problem#the coterie has to KEEP her from being brutally honest about her feelings#especially when she wants to call the local gangrel and brujahs a bitch to their faces#Charlie no please you're right but don't say it outloud#and also just#'does anyone ever feel like we make our own problems as immortals because we're just bored'#'charlie it's 6 am'

Ok, I'll make a post:

Can people in fandom stop throwing others under the bus for how they enjoy and interact with a piece of media? And, more specifically, can they stop acting like their interpretation - just an interpretation, mind you, stretching into headcanon territory at that - is the only interpretation of canon. You are allowed to feel how you feel, you are allowed to dislike or even hate how other people are doing things. But they are allowed to do how they do, just as you are. If you must comment, I encourage you to do so privately.

Live and let ship/write/headcanon, people.

Thank you.

i am. so sorry if i have ever used the phrase “i have an au where—” and led you to believe that there is an actual fic out there for you to read rather than, at best, a post where i explain the concept, and at worst it is simply something that lives in my brain

The most dangerous thing we can say to each other as writing partners:

"Ok, so you didn't like the story you just read, but there are elements of it that intrigue you too much to let go. How would you write it?"

singlehandedly responsible for so many stories we've made, it's not funny

The only thing worse than having to get braces put on as an adult is presenting as an omega on the exact same day— both far later than is typical.

It results in utter chaos.

At least, that’s how Steve felt about the whole ordeal.

Robin had been kind enough to stick around for his long appointment so she could make sure he had everything he needed afterwards.

Ice pack, pain killers, mouthwash. All the essentials.

They were prepared.

Just… not for a sudden presentation heat to start on the way home.

Why is your OC named what they're named? Is there a different reason in-universe than out-of-universe?

#Charlie in universe is named so bc her full name is Charlotte but she finds it too formal most of the time#the only people who call her that are Alfred and a couple other older more formal Kindred#who would find it too familiar to call her 'charlie'#the out of universe reason#is that I enjoy characters with names that dont necessarily align with their genders#I had a female protagonist in an old story named Mason#and the nosferatu tend to prefer nicknames and pseudonyms rather than their legal names to begin with
