My favourite thing about the whole ao3 shut down for repair was that everyone collectively decided to express their woes on tumblr making ao3 trending love that about us
7:04 the fact that jackson always manages to make it into every fucking fanfic regardless of fandom or cinematic universe with never fail to amaze me. his parties do be insane tho
My personal headcanon as to why he is everywhere is that Jackson Wang is cupid or fate themselves and he goes from world to world making people kiss kiss fall in love with amazing parties that sometimes end in big fights.
and in most of them the female lead gets flirted at by some random drunk dude and then the love interest comes to rescue her and then they drive home and she gets his hoodie and sleeps in his room (also its aBsOlUtElY nOt like im using that in my fanfic as well because i like the idea of it)
I recognized all of them and most of them are some of my favorite fandoms, so I can tell you how on point the descriptions were. I feel so seen and so called out right now you don't even know. Lmao
THE JACKSON WANG PARTY BIT IS TOO REAL 😭 😭 😭 MY FRIEND WAS GOING INSANE ABOUT IT BECAUSE EVERY FIC THEY FOUND HAD THE TRADEMARK JACKSON WANG PARTY IN IT
'The love of my life passed away (AO3 is down for maintenance) and I am trying to survive without her (it will be back up in a few hours) but time seems to stretch onto infinity in the absence of her light (I have ADHD and I am so bored)' I've never seen something so relatable lol
Through the entire segment of ‘what fanfics you ‘used to’ read say about you’ I’m not sure if I’m glad no one’s ever touched on Transformers, or if I feel left out… lmao
I actually read my first transformers fic this year... But.... It was a harry potter crossover and thats why i even found it lmao 💀 (People come up with the crasiest crossovers i was sitting there with my jaw dropped like WHAT, WHO WHY???? 😂)
To the point of the last one, the reaction time of fanfic/original fic readers to something being stolen is unmatched. I had a work of mine stolen and posted elsewhere two or three times (the same fic) and by the time word got to me, without fail, people were already reporting the bajeezus out of it and it was down within the hour of me hearing about it. The fic reading community is nothing to be trifled with. This happened YEARS ago and it still impresses me.
Why it's harder to write an essay than a fanfic, by someone who is pretty decent at essays (at least in uni on a computing course). 1- deadlines. Fic writers generally only have deadlines set by themselves, and the guy who set them is a tool anyway. Essays? Deadline set in stone. Result: Pressure. 2- conciseness. Essays, especially shorter ones, require that you display comprehensive knowledge of the subject in very few words. Getting the right info in and cutting back on the waffle is tough. Fics: I can assure you that 70% of my words in any given fic classifies as waffle. 3- research. Getting into a research rabbit hole for an essay gives you maybe one or two useful sources, but wastes a lot of time. Finding the information needed for citations is somehow worse than finding the paper itself. Fics: you can use the results of your uni essays research rabbit holes to get your next plot point. Most other research rabbit holes wind up useful in some way too. No need to cite.
2 is the exact opposite problem for me! I have no issue with writing high word count fiction, but the instant I have to write nonfiction I suffer. Minimum word requirements on essays are my mortal enemy, why do I need to write all this faff when I can get all my information across in half that? Forcing me to write extra shit will lower the quality of my essay!
@@FlowersOfIcetor Find some extra interesting and relevant points. That way your existing stuff can be high quality and concise, and you can cover more things. If you're in an academic setting that gives you the rubric with the assessment (like university in the UK), you can use that to help figure out what extra points you can add.
@@PichuElric Have you ever heard the phrase "to waffle on about something"? Lots of words that mean nothing, don't advance your point, and are generally just filler?
1:15 Actually, the majority of Undertale fanfic where skeletons are shipped together contains HEAVY elements of omegaverse, but due to being so far ingrained into the fandom it doesn't even need to be tagged anymore God, why am I chronically online?
The one at 7:20 is relatable. I found some of the old fics I'd written and cringed so hard I tore the pages out of my notebooks. One of the fics took up the entire notebook, and I literally removed the spiral ring from the binding just to get all the pages. Two days later, I went outside to the firepit and burned all of the pages to ashes. I would rather watch their worlds burn than have another person fall into awareness of their existence.
My old fics are uploaded in Ao3 but I couldn’t bear to read them to judge if they’re worthy of deleting. I can’t just delete them either just in case there’s that one soul out there who likes my shitty fics and would be devastated if I ever did delete them cause I myself reread shitty fics that I found years ago to this day. So I just leave them there
I so want to do the same with mine, but those crappy 14k smut stories I wrote when I was a CHILD who knew fairly little English are still getting more kudos on AO3 than the fic I've been writing in recent years. I don't know if something is wrong with me or my readers.
I HAVE A STORY TO TELL, I WAS ON AO3 LOOKING AT GLITCHTRAP FANFICS AND ONE WAS THE WILDEST SHIT IT WAS LIKE A BREEDING KINK WITH A DEMONSTRATION AND IT HAD THE WILDEST WORDS GOD BLESS WHOEVER WROTE THAT I HOPE THEYRE DOING WELL
no seriously I have one miraculous fanfic I wrote around 12-13 which is literally so shit but I cannot delete it cuz it has 100k reads on wattpad and I just sometimes think about how it will probably never happen again.
i normally go on wattpad and for the 3 times ive been on ao3 one of them was for a 2017 fanfic the fandom called "the cheese fanfic" which made an entire rule that one specific character is not allowed to touch or make mac and cheese
I remember a reviewer my one fandom had a while back that was commenting on random fanfics with reviews saying that it was "pig sh1t" and that their stories were better and to read theirs. They seemingly made an account that copied someone's actual account name (with slight differences). I got two messages warning me about the reviewer about an hour before I got a review from them. We all kind of banded together and this reviewer (who we dubbed "pig sh1t") eventually disappeared. They ended up popping up in another fandom of mine and my first thought was "aw I missed you".
i see a lot of people dissing on (Y/N) fics, but there are some that are actually really well done and don't make (Y/N) a shitty OC with ocean blue eyes and hair twice as long as their height. Instead, it's second person with an actually likeable MC and realistic (i mean, as far as fanfiction goes) romantic development
lmao thanks for this one,, was beginning to get discouraged since i write reader-insert. there's at least one person out there who will like ur stuff is what i'll say to any other writers out there
I can’t stand the (Y/N) fanfics that make the insert perfect and everyone loves them. The best ones are the ones where the author actually tries to make the insert build relationships.
I agree! This genre of fanfic is SO much more than its generic stereotype! If there's any reader-insert fic writers out there reading this, I'd just like you to know that you ARE valid and important and you've got an audience--and a pretty big one at that! :)
Ok, I've never read a Y/N in the One Direction or any K-pop fandoms, so does Jackson serve as the "person who has wild parties" in both fandoms? It almost makes sense, but I feel like Jackson didn't have as many big British connections-do to speak-when 1D Y/N fanfic would've been at its peak. Did someone else fill that role and Jackson just replaced them since he became so popular in K-pop tropes, or what?
I think he has become a trope on his own. And (seriously) he lives up to that. He recently invited fans from the concert to chill with him after and had a christmas party with his fans last year.
5:33 I wanted to love that fic but it gave me so much anxiety and unspeakable dread knowing what happens next that I literally had a panic attack when James and Lily died :’)
as someone who reads a lot of kpop fanfics: yeah, there is A LOT of omegaverse. and it's all highly kudosed as well. very often i'll skim the tags and be like "yeah, that sounds nice!" and then i'll read the description and ... "that was the day he found out he was an omega". i've really stopped reading them but i used to and i've seen... stuff.
My friend reads k-pop fanfics a LOT, like we'll be in class and I'll look over, and what you know, it's the red and white ao3 site... but anyway, I have seen some interesting ones, since said friends occasionally recommends some to me even though I have zero idea who these people are.
Murther is for the people who just wanted a wholesome fluffy ship with cool magic stuff maybe a touch of angst but not anything to bad. And as a member of the PJO fandom I can confirm we are basically just a queer summer camp, even our straight characters are bisexual icons and I have even seen IRL shipping wars over Percico vs Percabeth...
@@Kaitosmic_2-17 same I have whole essay on why I think Percico is a better relationship then Percabeth. But I try to stay neutral and respectful about the other ships.
Okay no, I'm terrified at how accurately she described me in the Peter Parker one?? I never read it because I got into fan fiction after that phase, but oh my god?? I was hugging a squishmellow as she said that?? And have a pillow pet??
I remember when I used to read only on wattpad, and I used to see things about how good ao3 was and how terrible wattpad was. So I tried to use ao3... and I was so confused with the way the whole thing worked, I immediately set back to my wattpad journey. I can't say that my expierences on wattpad were terrible, I read some good fanfiction, I read some incredibly cringey fanfic that I would not read again, and I read some actual original books (I know right). But... I somewhat recently decided to give ao3 another try, and I understood how to tag a lot better and navigate the website. Now I only really read on ao3, and I have found so many good works. (the amount of works that make you scroll to the top and start again that I have red...its honestly scares me)
I remember reading fanfics when I was younger about a certain anime ship (still ship it) and all the fan fictions would always go down like this: •Mc (female character) is kicked out of the group because she’s “weak” (even though that’s super ooc like holy shit😭😭) •Characters are super ooc (guy mc is shipped with insults her? Everyone is against her? The other girl who is considered a “rival” to the ship is evil?) •Character gets pissed and becomes a god/queen/princess of certain species in the anime (if you know you know). •”Epic” time skip revenge story where Brocken😭💔💔⛓️🖤🖤🖤🖤 mc character shows off magic powers. •Turns out the other female character was hypnotizing the group the whole time and she gets killed off in the end. •The mc and the one guy character who hated her because he was hypnotized or some shit get together. •In the authors notes there’s shit like “sorry for all the rival female character lovers, she’s evil in this story” like BITCH- •Probably closer to a self insert fanfic than a actual fanfic about the character- If you know what I’m talking about props because that was a very dark age lmao
I hate how my first introduction to fanfiction was due to my older brother showing me a Harry Potter fanfic on RUclips when I was like 10😭 I did find wattpad though thanks to my cousin the same year (2016), and ao3 in 2021 thanks to my ex👍👍
As someone who was into creepypastas when I was 11-ish? Accurate I have severe MDD with psychotic features and that actually makes so much more sense in this context
I will be shipping two characters who arent even from the same timeline or the same universe😭you can’t stop me. But more importantly… you can’t stop me from reading or writing the fic.
I love that I can write almost 1000 words in a day if I really find the motivation, but writing a two paragraph essay for school can take a week or more
I never understand when people say ao3 is hard to navigate. The competition is WATTPAD. I may have started on Wattpad, but finding ish on here was harder than an alpha male’s di- Instead of a checklist of tags, and database of used tags, you have to manually search or them and make sure they’re used? Not to mention the amount of Y/n and first person that you can’t even filter out. Maybe that’s just me, because the ao3 filter system is my bread and butter.
11:43- How _dare_ you call me and my bracelet making phase out like this? 💀 Though I will say, having been all over the place, an occasional vanilla muffin moment probably helped. There’s some weird shit out there.
Should’ve waited longer to comment, because I am also a tortured gay who will give everything, having liked Destiel and Merthur. This has been an evisceration, look forward to more of that.
at some point my brain won't be shoked to read that Jackson is hosting a party, even though the time setting doesn't match, like... in Stranger Things ? Just imagine, it's Jackson Wang's party, alcohol everywhere, and in one of the rooms... Eddie is selling some dr*ugs, because (well you know, he needs money duh)1; and then, steve is here, dragged by Robi who wanted to have fun (or just be with Vicky, your choice). so yeah. Jackson Wang's parties are a necessity to fanfics. or so i think
Y'all ever think about how you'd feel if you ran into a fanfiction about yourself? I'd be so creeped out lmfao. And you know there's some wild fan or desperate journalist who has made the celebrities that have them aware because there's always that person who can't keep it fantasy and _must_ be out here going too far with it. Even if I was super into a real person or band, that concept would keep me up at night even if I hadn't actually written any ideas down. I would be so mortified about that. Can't weird out a fictional character, they can't accidentally be exposed to my trash mind, they can't care.
@@noballs719 People say "I'd be flattered" about having an irl stalker too, but IDK, man. Every time you hear about a stalking victim, they don't think it's flattering at all, they hate it and want it to stop. I feel like it'd be different if it actually happened... I mean, not like funny as hell "X celebrity came down on a rainbow and fixed all the plot holes like a hero" kind of fics where you're just being meme'd up. I can see that being fine, I mean, like, the "I was sold to 1D" thing is being repeatedly clowned on for a reason. It's been the plot enough times to be a trend, and that's the kind of plot I'd rather my name be kept out of. I'd be pretty unhappy about some rando implying I'd engage in human trafficking and then fantasizing about being in a romantic/sexual relationship with me. That kind of fic is mostly what I'm saying. I'd be so weirded out.
@@YourWaywardDestiny OH, I understand what you were saying now. I wasn't trying to glorify having a stalker and ect, that's a very traumatizing experience and shouldn't be taken lightly. I thought you were referring to it happening if you were a celebrity or something, while they are still human (of course) and deal with that kind of stuff, my guess it wouldn't be as surprising/scary/ect. But if it was hardcore smut and ect, X reader and completely serious I would be terrified. And If I was an average civilian and it was written by some stranger than I would absolutely want it to stop.
i 100% agree, that’s why I try to avoid rpf as much as possible. I think it’s so weird how so many people are ok with making stuff like this, not thinking of the consequences of how it would affect a real person. I am an avid fan fiction lover but when it involves real people who cannot consent to things like these, it’s just icky.
@@Beelsoranges I'd rather some of the most extreme kinds of fans write this stuff down instead of trying to harass people, and I don't think it's written with the idea that it could be reality or would go anywhere outside of using a crafted public persona, but damn does it makes me uncomfortable. I'm not an anti as that would be pointless, but I still personally could never read or write that stuff. Just thinking "what if this happened to a normal person" makes me so weirded out.
I read religiously fnaf fanfic(Glamrock Freddy, Golden Freddy, bonnie, henry, sun/moon, and chica. Take it as you will), and I feel like I'm part of one of the most queer mentally destroyed burnt-out demographic, not saying its the only one of its kind but it's up there. Lil added bonus of me starting to read fnaf fanfic when I was 6 years old so-
damn, majorly called out for the marauders one 😭 i've fallen down a rabbit hole of marauders and alternate harry potter universe timelines, and i'm not leaving any time soon
not related to a particular part of the video but. love watching these types of compilations lots . despite the fact i can only relate to half of the things getting mentioned bc the fandom i like is so obscure it only has 6 fics and half of them are dead dove stuff :skull:
5:34 i saw this and immediately went to go find it 😅 edit: I FOUND LIKE 6 OF THEM AND I DONT KNOW WHICH ONE IT IS- edit: I FOUND A REMAKE OF IT THAT LINKED THE ORIGINAL I FOUND IT!! :D, imma finish this video then hole myself up in my cave to read this 526K, 188 chapter, slow burn fic because it just sounds amazing.
I highly suggest that when you are done, to go read the Sirius POV. It's written by an author called Rollercoasterwords and is really high quality. I think they rewrite it very nicely but also followed the plot MsKingBean89 made. It's one of my favorites!
4:29 either there or asianfanfics (if they read for k-pop, k-drama, or japanese anime), or some other obscure ff website that was shut down years ago so nothing gets updated anymore, but the website still loads so you can read them anyway-
3:15 NOOO BECAUSE I TRY TO BLOCK OUT THE TAGS AND THERE ARE LIKE 70 DIFFERENT VARIANTS AND NONE OF THEM ARE ATTACHED SO I HAVE TO BLOCK EVERY SINGLE ONE INDIVIDUALLY
I don’t know why I keep watching these videos, I’ve finally realized that I can’t relate to almost any of these, bc the fanfics I read have tags I feel like I shouldn’t even type in this comments section, considering everyone in this compilation looked like children, but I think it’s fair to say my search history is strictly limited between the general areas of lemon and dead dove. lol
i wasn't expecting the Hannibal Omegaverse to get a mention, but here we are. (some of them fics are good tho) Damn nvm i'm going to jail now, the queen said it herself ;-;

7:10 THE JACKSON WANG'S PARTY HAD ME I'M DYING-
I remember reading fanfics when I was younger about a certain anime ship (still ship it) and all the fan fictions would always go down like this:
•Mc (female character) is kicked out of the group because she’s “weak” (even though that’s super ooc like holy shit😭😭)
•Characters are super ooc (guy mc is shipped with insults her? Everyone is against her? The other girl who is considered a “rival” to the ship is evil?)
•Character gets pissed and becomes a god/queen/princess of certain species in the anime (if you know you know).
•”Epic” time skip revenge story where Brocken😭💔💔⛓️🖤🖤🖤🖤 mc character shows off magic powers.
•Turns out the other female character was hypnotizing the group the whole time and she gets killed off in the end.
•The mc and the one guy character who hated her because he was hypnotized or some shit get together.
•In the authors notes there’s shit like “sorry for all the rival female character lovers, she’s evil in this story” like BITCH-
•Probably closer to a self insert fanfic than a actual fanfic about the character-
If you know what I’m talking about props because that was a very dark age lmao
Bro when AO3 went down I was at a theater competition and it was right before we competed so I was gonna read some fanfic to calm myself down 💀
every fanfic reader's goal is to go to one of jackson's parties
Me who only started reading fanfiction 6-9 months ago but it has already destroyed my life and is now watching this: HAHAHAHAHA....Oh wait...
I just realized you could name a child after a ship name
Had to rewrite "should" as "could." Can't let the inner wolf out too much
12:07 the way this person read me like an open book lmao i feel so called out 💀
*Another beautiful TikTok compilation to feed my orbs and soul with*
Thank you!
0:26 WHEN I HEARD THIS I SCREAMED BCS MY A03 HISTORY IS PURLY SONIC AND I WAS SO SURPRISED BCS STANZI
14:23 how does she know about my childhood… I feel called out
13:29 this is the only time in my life where i have been compelled to scream "I'M AUTISIC" at my computer
Happens at least once a week to me lol
Relatable
“Where are you going?”
Me: “jail, apparently”
15:07
12:17 with the one before all stuff I mocked people about, she really put me in my damn place. I do love cheese pizza, it's all I eat.
Oh my gosh seeing stanzi potanza right in the beginning was such a treat!
I hate how my first introduction to fanfiction was due to my older brother showing me a Harry Potter fanfic on RUclips when I was like 10😭
I did find wattpad though thanks to my cousin the same year (2016), and ao3 in 2021 thanks to my ex👍👍
12:36
"u read my chemical romance fanfiction" ... girl how tf did u know-
This was an eerily correct fact lmaooo
no I felt so called out-
She knows things, remember?
@@kskskskks7132 STOP IM TRYING TO FORGET
@@starsoullove1026 that quote is literally the equivalent of the g-note for me 😭😭 i just lose my mind
these give me more serotonin that actual serotonin 😭
21:48 Goddamn, community care if I've ever seen it. It makes me confident to post.
When she called me a pathological, liar for the vampire diaries i screamed
As someone who was into creepypastas when I was 11-ish? Accurate I have severe MDD with psychotic features and that actually makes so much more sense in this context
THE MANDALORIAN ONE HIT ME IN THE SOUL- ROUGH DAY ANYONE?!💀💀💀
I FELT SO CALLED OUT LMAO 💀 I LOVE ROUGH DAY A LITTLE TOO MUCH
I just learned that a fav current fic of mine is discontinued. I am in pain
My condolences...
I will be shipping two characters who arent even from the same timeline or the same universe😭you can’t stop me. But more importantly… you can’t stop me from reading or writing the fic.
Crossovers for the win~
I love that I can write almost 1000 words in a day if I really find the motivation, but writing a two paragraph essay for school can take a week or more
I never understand when people say ao3 is hard to navigate. The competition is WATTPAD. I may have started on Wattpad, but finding ish on here was harder than an alpha male’s di-
Instead of a checklist of tags, and database of used tags, you have to manually search or them and make sure they’re used? Not to mention the amount of Y/n and first person that you can’t even filter out.
Maybe that’s just me, because the ao3 filter system is my bread and butter.
11:43- How _dare_ you call me and my bracelet making phase out like this? 💀 Though I will say, having been all over the place, an occasional vanilla muffin moment probably helped. There’s some weird shit out there.
Should’ve waited longer to comment, because I am also a tortured gay who will give everything, having liked Destiel and Merthur. This has been an evisceration, look forward to more of that.
14:34 as soon as she said Sterek I threw my phone so hard I'm surprised it's not broken
The Mandalorian one was too accurate lol
7:32 "the AO3 writer curse is real"
me who's about to post my first fic: **sweats in fear**
at some point my brain won't be shoked to read that Jackson is hosting a party, even though the time setting doesn't match, like... in Stranger Things ? Just imagine, it's Jackson Wang's party, alcohol everywhere, and in one of the rooms... Eddie is selling some dr*ugs, because (well you know, he needs money duh)1; and then, steve is here, dragged by Robi who wanted to have fun (or just be with Vicky, your choice).
so yeah. Jackson Wang's parties are a necessity to fanfics. or so i think
I read/write in very small Fandoms but. When she talked about reading marauders hp fics and Spencer Reid specifically she came for my life
Y'all ever think about how you'd feel if you ran into a fanfiction about yourself? I'd be so creeped out lmfao. And you know there's some wild fan or desperate journalist who has made the celebrities that have them aware because there's always that person who can't keep it fantasy and _must_ be out here going too far with it. Even if I was super into a real person or band, that concept would keep me up at night even if I hadn't actually written any ideas down. I would be so mortified about that. Can't weird out a fictional character, they can't accidentally be exposed to my trash mind, they can't care.
I'd be flattered ngl, read the shit out of it
@@noballs719 People say "I'd be flattered" about having an irl stalker too, but IDK, man. Every time you hear about a stalking victim, they don't think it's flattering at all, they hate it and want it to stop. I feel like it'd be different if it actually happened... I mean, not like funny as hell "X celebrity came down on a rainbow and fixed all the plot holes like a hero" kind of fics where you're just being meme'd up. I can see that being fine, I mean, like, the "I was sold to 1D" thing is being repeatedly clowned on for a reason. It's been the plot enough times to be a trend, and that's the kind of plot I'd rather my name be kept out of.
I'd be pretty unhappy about some rando implying I'd engage in human trafficking and then fantasizing about being in a romantic/sexual relationship with me. That kind of fic is mostly what I'm saying. I'd be so weirded out.
@@YourWaywardDestiny OH, I understand what you were saying now. I wasn't trying to glorify having a stalker and ect, that's a very traumatizing experience and shouldn't be taken lightly. I thought you were referring to it happening if you were a celebrity or something, while they are still human (of course) and deal with that kind of stuff, my guess it wouldn't be as surprising/scary/ect. But if it was hardcore smut and ect, X reader and completely serious I would be terrified. And If I was an average civilian and it was written by some stranger than I would absolutely want it to stop.
i 100% agree, that’s why I try to avoid rpf as much as possible. I think it’s so weird how so many people are ok with making stuff like this, not thinking of the consequences of how it would affect a real person. I am an avid fan fiction lover but when it involves real people who cannot consent to things like these, it’s just icky.
@@Beelsoranges I'd rather some of the most extreme kinds of fans write this stuff down instead of trying to harass people, and I don't think it's written with the idea that it could be reality or would go anywhere outside of using a crafted public persona, but damn does it makes me uncomfortable. I'm not an anti as that would be pointless, but I still personally could never read or write that stuff. Just thinking "what if this happened to a normal person" makes me so weirded out.
me, watching this video right after I decided to bite the bullet and start reading a watered down abo: 👁👄👁
I only knew I couple of fandoms from the “calling out” tik toks but as a Peter Parker and Matt Murdock, I was concerned by how accurate it was wth???
I read religiously fnaf fanfic(Glamrock Freddy, Golden Freddy, bonnie, henry, sun/moon, and chica. Take it as you will), and I feel like I'm part of one of the most queer mentally destroyed burnt-out demographic, not saying its the only one of its kind but it's up there. Lil added bonus of me starting to read fnaf fanfic when I was 6 years old so-
LAMO SAME😂
damn, majorly called out for the marauders one 😭
i've fallen down a rabbit hole of marauders and alternate harry potter universe timelines, and i'm not leaving any time soon
18:57 Thank you. This is incredibly accurate.
3:26 this is why we scroll SLOWLY no matter what.
i think we can all agree on the fact that a fanfiction isnt complete without jackson's iconic parties
SYOP THE UNSERTALE O E IS SO ACCURATE
13:20 ... I didn't ask to be called out like this... 😭
When the only fic with that pairing is angsty and you don't like angst:
*Cracks knuckles opens AO3*
fine, I'll do it myself
The ones about Supernatural hit me hard, lol
the first one- omfg i love stanzis videos
I recently met the author who wrote a smut on Enishi x Kaoru a decade ago and i felt like i met jk rowling.
The fact that transformers got me into fanfiction. I read innocent fanfics.... Now....
4:50 still haven't gotten over All the young dudes :'/
3:36 GOD SO TRUE! It's such a simple tactic but it hits every time
not related to a particular part of the video but.
love watching these types of compilations lots . despite the fact i can only relate to half of the things getting mentioned bc the fandom i like is so obscure it only has 6 fics and half of them are dead dove stuff :skull:
5:34 i saw this and immediately went to go find it 😅
edit: I FOUND LIKE 6 OF THEM AND I DONT KNOW WHICH ONE IT IS-
edit: I FOUND A REMAKE OF IT THAT LINKED THE ORIGINAL I FOUND IT!! :D, imma finish this video then hole myself up in my cave to read this 526K, 188 chapter, slow burn fic because it just sounds amazing.
I wish you luck
@@MERCIFUL_HEAVENS thanks! i'm a few chapters in and i'm already in love lol
I highly suggest that when you are done, to go read the Sirius POV. It's written by an author called Rollercoasterwords and is really high quality. I think they rewrite it very nicely but also followed the plot MsKingBean89 made. It's one of my favorites!
@@gingerdragon8077 okay! i'm about halfway done with the one from remus' pov, i'm excited to see sirius' :)
4:29
either there or asianfanfics (if they read for k-pop, k-drama, or japanese anime), or some other obscure ff website that was shut down years ago so nothing gets updated anymore, but the website still loads so you can read them anyway-
that im watching this while procrastinating on like three fics I started 😔
10:55THIS WAS LITERALLY ME LIKE 2 DAYS AGO HELP- I WAS SO DEVISTATED ✋😭💀
5:42 *immediately goes to find it*
How is this so relateable oh my god
4:21 Quotev my guy, Quotev.
3:53 tell me why my mind immediately went to Sirius and Remus💀💀
3:15 NOOO BECAUSE I TRY TO BLOCK OUT THE TAGS AND THERE ARE LIKE 70 DIFFERENT VARIANTS AND NONE OF THEM ARE ATTACHED SO I HAVE TO BLOCK EVERY SINGLE ONE INDIVIDUALLY
17:33 i got personally called out 😭
The first tik tok literally floored me. She had to be on the phone with me in 2005
When they do that, you know it’s either gonna be so mind fucking blowingly good or it’s gonna be a hot pile of absolute shit 3:39
8:04 had me dying ☠️
yall istg i was on a plane and I look to my right and the girl next to me is reading a PRINTED HARDCOPY OF ALL THE YOUNG DUDES.
I was personally unaffected from ao3 being down b/c I have a usb drive with over 1,000 fanfics that I save for rainy days
14:08 I feel so called out lol
Literally everything she said is true😭
I don’t know why I keep watching these videos, I’ve finally realized that I can’t relate to almost any of these, bc the fanfics I read have tags I feel like I shouldn’t even type in this comments section, considering everyone in this compilation looked like children, but I think it’s fair to say my search history is strictly limited between the general areas of lemon and dead dove. lol
i wasn't expecting the Hannibal Omegaverse to get a mention, but here we are. (some of them fics are good tho)
Damn nvm i'm going to jail now, the queen said it herself ;-;
