I need young/new fandom people to PLEASE learn etiquette of fanfiction and fandom and be respectful, it's okay if you don't like a fanfiction but it is extremely rude and against the well-being of the whole fandom to be fixated on hating it publicly and making hate posts about it, ignore it or block the content from it if you didn't like it or don't agree with how the characters are depicted there!

Fanfiction is not a product they are selling you, it's a shared FREE piece of art, and the only thing you're accomplishing by hating on it is making the fandom less rich and possibly pushing away people from being passionate and participating, being part of the community + scaring also OTHER people at the same time and pushing them away too because they'll be afraid to share their own art too, which is art that you could love!

Be mindful so you can also get more of what YOU like.

Block tags and use the block button when you don't want to see some type of content, be respectful of other artists and writers who are fans of media and just want to share their own vision and passion with others and find their space exactly like you do.

Also "canon" doesn't hold much meaning in fandom - it's called like that because it's of the fans!! Fandom is where you should be free to divert from canon as much as you'd like!

I’m a ride or die Jegulus shipper but that Moonwater be looking real nice

my toxic trait is that i want to gatekeep some characters simply because of how stupid their antis are. please go touch some grass. a fictional character is not my moral compass. i can appreciate and explore the worst person ever if they are a well written character that appeals to me. some of you sound like “oh nooo this not real character killed another not real character so if a real person likes them i Must send them death threats in real life”

Just saw someone say "would you rather ship lily with a man or Regulus with a woman" and i

Would just

Kms instead

Wlw mlm besties

lily and regulus would be such a power couple if I didn’t hc them both as gay

You can hc every single person in the marauders fandom as straight, except for Regulus and Marlene. If you think for even a second they would fuck the opposite sex you are WRONG. Instant red buzzer sound. They are GAY. They are the gay blueprint. Regulus flirts with guys to make James jealous. Marlene fucks only girls before she dates Dorcas. They are that gay. That Victorian belongs-in-a-Renaissance-painting sickly sad poetry writing boy and that spunky grunge aesthetic pink-haired should've-been-a-rockstar girl are gay. Gay, I say. If you think otherwise you are lying to yourself.

Sick of all this fandom etiquette talk when most of the people who talk about it don’t even practice it. Fandom etiquette is not about you having to like a ship. You can in fact dislike anything you want, but etiquette is leaving it out of your content if you’re going to make pointless jabs at someone who likes it or the ship itself. You can dislike dramione, or Jegulus, or whatever else, but you actively dragging it is weird. If you hate it, don’t talk about it. BLOCK IT. Idk. Figure it out. How many times does this have to be explained? A joke here or there, nobody cares, but it’s the incessant need to hate constantly on a ship…like atp you’re a bigger fan than me.

And need I remind you, THIS IS FANON. NOT CANON. Get over this whole idea that a ship can only work if it’s fucking canon. Jeez.

i hate when people publicly hate on ships like babe do you think i CHOSE to be this obsessed with harry potters dead dad and his godfathers little brother ??

REMINDER

Regulus being a trans man that can be feminine if he wants doesn't hurt you

Sirius being genderfluid doesn't hurt you

Any character in any fandom being under the trans umbrella in any way DOES NOT HURT YOU

If YOU don't like it, that's FINE. But don't act like making a character not the gender they were assigned at birth and portraying it how they like is problematic.

Don't like, don't read, it's very simple
