people who write fics. how do you feel about comments on super old ones you wrote like 2+ years ago
Bringing this out of the tags:
A fic written 2 years ago is NOT OLD. Two years is nothing. Two years ago was yesterday.
Also I don't care if a fic is 10 years old. Leave those comments!! Even if you think the author isn't active, or moved on from the fandom, I promise you it will make them smile.
I commented on a fic that was 11 years old, and there was already a response by the time I got up the next morning. Comment on the fics, please, comment on them, I promise it'll make the author's day either way
I got a comment on a fic of mine this week that just read "TWO THOUSAND AND NINE?"
I replied to it within seconds, of course. someone commented on my fic
As @pentapoda put it in this post:
(transcript: Every time someone comments on my old fic, i feel like I'm an old actor getting paid residuals. Appreciate you, old-fic-commenters. Key source of emotional income, tbh.)

The thing that gets me about the impending Harry Potter show is like. I'm able to, for entirely hypothetical purposes, put aside my disdain and disgust for the author's full-tilt bigotry and put myself in the shoes of someone who's still a Fan, like I would be if the author hadn't doubled, tripled, and quadrupled down on being a full-tilt bigot, and even then, imagining the alternate universe where JKR remained a staunch ally and well-meaning if clueless liberal philanthropic darling, I still can't quite wrap my head around why I'd want this show to be made
Everyone keeps saying it's going to be a Faithful Adaptation Of The Series and I'm just like... okay? This isn't A Series Of Unfortunate Events that got a bad adaptation and they had to go back and try again to get it right. The majority of fans liked and continue to like the movies, a lot, and despite some minor quibbles here and there, they're considered incredibly faithful adaptations. The Fandom isn't exactly divided on this, either.
Like, I imagine a nearby alternate timeline where JKR was never hit by the Idiot Stick That Makes You Hate Women and remained normal, and I remained a fan of a flawed but influential children's fantasy series, and I can't really think of a reason why I would be excited about them trying to make lightning strike a second time. Are people really that mad about Michael Gambon saying "Harry did you put your name in the goblet of fire" animatedly instead of calmly? Or is WB just worried that the incoming demographic of theme park attendees have nowhere near the nostalgic link to the series that millennials would, and that if they don't inject the series back into the zeitgeist, the golden goose might stop laying eggs?
If JK Rowling hadn't gone full terf and this remake was happening then we'd all be wearily rolling our eyes at yet another carriage being hitched to the endless train of unnecessarily remade hits that nobody wants. People would be joking about "they're making a live action Harry Potter now" (the joke of course being that the previous one was also live action this time so they don't even have the normal excuse). People would revive old comparisons of Lion King shots and Mulan shots and put up Harry Potter ones next to them and joke about how expressive the animation is in the original. I can't see any world in which anyone would want this.
#yeah exactly#even in the good timeline#there is no need for this#the films aren't perfect#it's pretty much impossible to make a perfect adaptation#doesn't mean they had to fumble THAT sequence this hard#but the films are good!#you don't need another attempt!#it's just a cash grab#add to that jkr's terf bullshit#and everything else she said#she just wants more support of her work#to misinterpret as support of her views#tldr i won't watch it#not even pirated

I postponed dinner by more than two hours today because I was word-vomiting too hard. Ooopsie.
Still working on this one. We're at 3.5k words of pure Wolfe angst.
Also in the works: - Glain fic - family time - alternate coming out scenes in Ink and Bone - kinky dads where Nic abuses his power in a wholesome way - a few others that are on pause at the moment

It's not really Great Library fanart, but close enough
Saw those at book fair/comic con today and there's no way I couldn't get them. Now I have a dedicated Great Library bookmark!
Omg that bookmark on the right is STUNNING
Also Wolfe and possibly also Glain need that cartoon on a t-shirt 😂
Father/daughter matching shirt, Nic fave it to them for no special occasion.
Also, I got another print from the same artist today that is not an automaton, but I'll interpret it as such. And I took a pic of the sprayed edges of the German editions for the community.
Also read the love/contingency of death letter in German. It is very beautiful.
Final day of book fair, so naturally I got more Egyptian stuff.
The postcard is just fun. The stickers though. Looks like they're talking to each other, but actually Chris would have both as posters in his classroom.
