So, in other news related to me, I’ve been writing an actual book-book. As in, not random porno. Although there may be porno at some point, I dunno.

I have not forgotten about you guys. I posted some porno on the main blog as penance. I’ll get to the next part of The Seduction of the Doktor as soon as I can.

and my first reaction is WTF is all this shitty pink crap, and where are they hiding all the porn?

Oh happy day, they responded to me!

Patronizing. Gigglesnort.

Well, I appreciate the intent of kindness if that’s what you really think, though I have to inform you that you’re wrong. It’s the thought that counts, so I suppose I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Today, dear readers, we learned that gigglesnort is a word (HAH), and ‘nuh uh, YOU’RE WRONG’ is an appropriate response to anything.

She’s a kid, clearly. Only children respond like this. She’s going to get slapped sideways by the real world someday.

{added by edit - my response}

“Tut tut, someone hasn’t been learning their letters. Gigglesnort isn’t a word, dear. And please, I know you think you’re in the right, but not even Biblical theology agrees with you, so let’s have some perspective on why you think homosexuality is bad, okay? The first step in recovery is admitting you have a problem.”

SPAM HER ASK BOX WITH LOVE, WE CAN STILL SAVE HER FROM HERSELF!

GAY PORN YOU SAY

DON’T MIND IF I DO

It started with a bottle of wine - a very good bottle, it must be said, but Medic had suspected it was something more. Maybe a special vintage, one that made people feel good - not just drunk, but good. Like the world was a wonderful place, and everyone in it was wonderful.

He couldn’t help but think that Heavy agreed. They had spent most of the evening playing chess, then talking and laughing in his room, as the wine bottle was emptied and they both became sillier and happier. There was nowhere to sit, so they both sat on the bed and joked about home, and their team mates, and the day’s battle, as if none of those things had ever been painful.

It wasn’t clear who had made the first move. Medic laughed, and thumped Heavy on the shoulder, and the force of playfully punching such a large, solid man had overbalanced him in the opposite direction. Heavy caught his arm before he fell sideways and pulled him back, chuckling at his clumsiness, but the humor vanished when Medic leaned in against his chest and sighed. They could blame the wine, if they really wanted to. It changed things, made the strange suddenly seem desirable.

The kisses felt like stubble and tasted like alcohol, but the feeling of hands on skin was familiar at least. It was welcome, after such a long time. It reminded a man of how much loneliness made the heart ache. All the things that said it was wrong seemed to matter very little in the face of that. So Medic threw himself into it, into him, and when they were both naked under the blanket, all he really knew was the heat of another body and the certain knowledge that they wanted each other so badly it hurt.

The morning would mean they’d have to say something. They’d have to blame the wine, or face up to some very unsettling truths. Tonight, though, they’d let it all go and just be lovers.

Okay I’m late to the party here - who is this person, that I may go to their Tumblr and point and laugh at them?

At this point trying to convince them that they’re not a huge asshole has proven completely fruitless.

Least you could do is lob some uncomfortable questions at them that they might not have immediate answers to.

My contribution:

“Hello there, dear - I just want to let you know that it’s okay. What you’re feeling right now is repression, and it’s a symptom of being indoctrinated by outdated religious dogma. Someday, if you get the right counselling, it’ll pass and you’ll come out of it a more empathic, well-balanced person. But I know right now you’re probably feeling very threatened by what you wrongly consider to be unnatural, and I want to assure you - it’s really okay. We understand. We’re here if you want help.”

I can’t point and laugh. This poor child has obviously been indoctrinated.

Quit laughing, people, this is a tragedy and she clearly needs our support to get through this dark time in her life.

Her hubris is what robs her of sympathy. She is proud and her pride will lead to her inevitable downfall.

I’ve read enough Greek tragedies to know where this is going.

And by “enough” I mean I read two.

I tell you, there is a human being worth saving somewhere under that metric fuck-ton of arrogance and holier-than-thou attitude, and I would be remiss in my duties as a mad porn-writing scientist if I didn’t at least consider how to save that human being from their current inevitable trajectory into a wall of internet mockery!

AAALLLL I’M SAAAAAAYINNNGG IS GIIIIVEE PEEEEEEAACE A CHAAAAANCE

This is why I left, in case you were wondering.

Even so…

Yeah I

don’t understand why TF2chan seems to have turned into a hugbox

Half the reason I gave up posting stuff there was because nobody would crit anything, art or writing, and if any crit - even entirely valid, polite, helpful, constructive criticism - was ever offered on anything, the critter would immediately be dogpiled by white-knighting bullshitters

See also: the entireity of this babyfic shitthread, that Brazilian maid nonsense, the clusterfuck that is Dominique, etc

It’s a chan. If you can’t take people being less than tolerant of bullshit, then fuck off back to deviantArt.

How do I make this better, though?

I have lost my resolve help.

From what I’ve observed, the chan seemed to go seriously downhill once the “workshop” board was added. Until then, people with varying degrees of artistic talent all showed up in the same places and got the same amount of critique when needed. Bad fanart showed up in the same places as good fanart, which led people being a lot less hesitant about telling people to improve and how, because people wanted to see quality stuff, not bad. It was catering to a single audience who had a (really gay) appreciation for a video game where people go crazy with weapons, wear hats, and die repeatedly. Everyone was a part of the horrifying clusterfuck that was TF2Chan. Instead of being put in a “special” little section of their own, they got called on their bullshit, along with demands to improve. Meanwhile, everyone else either got bored and left due to the sudden, yet expected slowness on the regular boards or got inflated egos. By dumping the ‘bad’ artists into a board of their own in order to make the regular fanart boards look ‘better’, you made the problem 100x worse.

You guys keep complaining about how the site has become a huge hugbox, when you are the very people who created said hugbox (workshop). YOU MONSTERS.

[/gross sobbing]

I love how all of this has completely passed me by, even though I’ve been around the fandom for at least a year at this point.

It’s like I’ve been in a little porn writing bubble.

and another thing. if you’re going to right smut fan fic, for the love of god, GET TO THE POINT. WHICH IS FUCKING. the 27 pages of descriptions and talking leading up to the fucking?

GUESS WHO IS NOT READING IT??????

^^^^^

FOR REALS!

If I gotta read more than 1 chapter to get to fucking? I’m done….

holy loly

…I feel oddly very old…

Hell, I’m not writing for you-all; I’m writing for me.  If you like my porn, peachy keen, but it’s not like I’m going to be sacked from writing porn about cartoon characters if you don’t.

If you want porn that consists of nothing but two people banging their bits together, go to 4chan. I hear they’re pretty good for instant gratification kinda stuff.

But MY porn, good sir, will be preceded by as much prose as I feel I need to write in order to make the eventual fucking MEANINGFUL in some way, and yeah, sometimes that will be on the order of chapters and chapters of other stuff. (It took me 22 to get to the sex scene in Butterfly Knife, fyi.)

You want a story that’s nothing but sex, okay. That’s cool. There are plenty out there like that. I’ve even written one or two. But do not suggest to me that a story becomes a waste of time just because it has sex somewhere at the end of it. All that other stuff isn’t just there to piss you off - the writer is trying to build up the characters and get you invested in the story, so when the sex does happen, you enjoy it more.

You’ve got the entire internet if you want fap material on demand, and you’re not paying me to write the kind of porn you like to read, so if you don’t mind, I’ll just stick to what I’m doing.
