🛡️🦁About Mera🦁🛡️

[Mera, Messenger, or GL • Writer and Fan • Certified Fandom Adult]

[ Blog Content:

• I primarily post/reblog meta, fanart, fandom, and writing content.
• I love Shonen-genre manga/anime, so much of my fandom content falls under that category.
• I am a certified fandom adult. I do not have a DNI, but minors, please be aware so that you can make an informed decision about following.
• I post (and tag!) manga spoilers for most of the series I enjoy.
• My DMs are open to discussions and meta! Back in my day, fandom was a lot more chatty—I’d love to see that revived!

]

[ My Works:

• I write and post fanfic under the same handle, GuardianLioness, on the Archive of Our Own.

]

[ Housekeeping:

• The vast majority of the content on my blog is non-ship, and I do not frequently engage in shipping—so romance is rare here, and I may not have much to say on ship related discussion.
• I do not reblog explicit content.
• I tag curse-heavy reblogs with the tag “profanity”.

]

[ Current Primary Fandoms:

• Kaiju No. 8
• Boku no Hero Academia
• Final Fantasy XIV

[ Fanwork Permission Statement:

Blanket Permission for humans to remix, edit, podfic, etc. my work provided you link me to it!

This permission DOES NOT extend to AI works. If you wish to modify, update, or reinterpret my AO3 collection, please do it out of the depths of your own beautiful brain.

PERSONAL FANBINDING is permitted, and you are free to bind as a gift for others. However, for my safety and the safety of the archive, I do not permit fanbindings of my works to be sold. In addition, please do not share/redistribute binding format files without linking to or crediting me.

I hope someone has read my work so late at night that they dropped their phone on their face by mistake.

b1uetrees:

everything looks like a nail when you’ve got a hammer and every song is actually about the character when they’re on your mind 24/7

ao3commentoftheday:

for the second time in less than 3 months, a podficcer has thanked me for having a permission statement on my ao3 profile

my statement says that I welcome podfics and other transformations of my work, and it also says what I don’t give permission for

these kinds of statements are helpful to your fellow fans who might be inspired by your work but uncertain how to talk to you about it. by giving (or denying) them permission up front, you save them that bit of anxiety and/or logistical stress

if you’ve never made a permission statement before, you can read this Fanlore page about them or check out @fanworkspermissionstatement for a handy template
