Also known as Ali, she/her, and I am in my 20s. Don’t really mind who follows as long as you are aware this is my blog where I post what I want, if you don’t like something then either don’t interact with said post or unfollow me. This is a personal multifandom random blog where I post anything and everything I feel like it.
Alright, to ao3's soon to be arriving Wattpad Refugees, a basic guide to general user culture:
1.) Unlike Wattpads vote system that let's you like each chapter, the ao3 equivalent kudos only allows one per work. Everyone is generally quietly annoyed about this. To engage with each chapter, you're heavily encouraged to comment. Trust me, it makes people's day.
2.) Ao3 has no algorithm. By default it's latest updated work first. You can find things to your taste through searches, filters and tags.
3.) 'No archive warnings apply' and 'user has chosen not to use archive warnings' mean two very different things. No archives warnings means the work is free from any content that could require a warning tag (character death, graphic depictions of violence, non-con, etc). User has chosen not to use archive warnings means it could contain any of the warning content, be it hasn't been explicitly tagged. Treat it like an allergen. No archive warnings apply is allergen free. User has chosen not to use archive warnings, may contain traces or whole chunks of the allergen. If you're likely to have a bad reaction, maybe don't take the risk.
4.) Speaking of warnings, ao3 has very few restrictions on the type of work that's allowed. Whatever your personal thoughts or feelings on that are, thats how the site is. You're likely to run across some dark subject matters and a lot of people are uncomfortable with reading that. You're well within your rights not like these works and have your opinion on whether they should be allowed, but harassing the authors of such works (or any works) is more likely to come back on you than them. Ao3 operates on a strong policy of 'don't like, don't read'. Use the tagging system to your full advantage to only engage with the kind of works you want to see.
We look forward to welcoming you all and seeing the fantastic works you create. Happy writing!
Saw a post like this with negative outlook so I asked for it to be fixed
I’m so angry that The Winchesters is good.
ITS ABOUT HEALING UR INNER CHILD
Millie Winchester is the only valid hunter parent ever.
THIS IS LIKE THE EPISODE WHERE DEAN GETS CALLED OUT FOR WEARING DADDY'S JACKET AND DRIVING DADDYS CAR.
There's the John Winchester I know and hate.
Mary & John: We’re facing a God, this is the worst thing that could possibly happen.
Sam & Dean: Yeah, okay, go up against God and we’ll talk.
"The fight between good and evil isn't always easy, especially when the first monster you have to fight is the one inside you." Says the man who has never faced his emotional demons once in his life.
"The Akrida must have got the Men of Letters." Actually Abbadon did.
GIRL THAT BAG JUST FELL FROM UR ROOF, GET SOME PERSPECTIVE!!
I did not expect Carlos to be the one I like least here... How do u manage to be more annoying than John Winchester?
THE WAY MARY ALWAYS PUTS JOHN ON HER TEAM... GIRL, BE MORE SUBTLE.
No John, the next line is "The family business."
"Maybe when you have kids, you'll understand." He won't.
Me, screaming, crying, throwing up: MARY NEVER WANTED THIS LIFE AND SHE NEVER WANTED HER KIDS TO BE PART OF THIS LIFE!! JOHN WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HER HAPPY ENDING AND HE TURNED HER KIDS INTO HER NIGHTMARE!!
