On The Next Level

Hey, monster and or alien fucker romancers, just a heads up, but it looks like L*ly Ant*n has been stealing fanfic from tumblr and selling it for profit as original fic:

If you read and or write alien romance, fated lovers or any of the other tropes listed in the Twitter thread, you might want to check your work/the work of your favorite fic authors.

POSTING THIS AGAIN!!!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!!!

This is the worst timeline. (x)

Sweet Child

Kars x Child!reader (platonic)

Tw: Child death,some kinda angst???

Word count: 656

Long ago Kars adopted a human child that was from a hamon tribe that had gotten lost and was not scared of him but curious .This child was named (y/n),they were born with curiosity .(Y/n) was always exploring and that was the reason why they got lost. You had accidently found the place the pillar men were camping and was hiding behind a tree watching them. Kars was the one who noticed them first seeing your (h/c) and (e/c) at night. He then went to the tree you were and hid. When you went to peak again you had noticed one was missing and then heard his voice. “So you're the presence I felt” Kars says looking down at you. You jumped a little and turned around slowly,now staring up at him. “I didn't mean to stare at you mr, I just got curious of you since you're different than others” you say with your big colored eyes staring at him with curiosity. Kars was surprised you were not scared of him but curious of him, he then decided to ask you where your parents were. “Little one, where are your parents?” Kars asked you. You then put your index finger on your lips as you think. You then realized that you were lost and went too far into the forest. You drop your head in despair as you tell the man. “I got lost” you say with a sad voice. “Well I could help you but tell me your name first,child.” Kars says crouched to reach your level. You raise your head as you say your name. “My name is (y/n),what's yours mr?” (y/n) ask. Kars thinks about it and says his name. “My name is Kars,” He says with pride.

A few weeks passed and (y/n) was still with Kars,he taught them how to catch fish and hunt animals.(Y/n) parents were neglectful to them so (y/n) say Kars as a father figure.One time you were being tucked by Kars and you had called him papa as you fell asleep.Kars had been surprised you had called him papa but he never asked you for this.A few days later while at night looking for berries,you had found you home,the tribe.Your parents were happy that you came back but you had asked them who they were. “(Y/n),we are your parents” they said as you stared them at them shocked.Kars knew you were away for a long time so he went to find you and saw you were by a tribe.Your parents noticed him and screamed about a pillarmen.You were scared and confused and then saw Kars.You removed your parents arm around you and ran to Kars,hugging him. “Papa!” you said as you ran to Kars ,hiding you face in his leg.Kars then crouched and hugged you. The tribe had come to see the comotion of your parents screaming and then seeing Kars. “A pillar men is attacking that child!”Had screamed someone from the hamon tribe. Some of the hamon warriors had swords and spears to attack the pillar men with. One went to attack Kars but you stood in front of the weapon and it went into through you,blood falled from you mouth as you closed your eyes and dying in front of Kars. Kars held your dead body with anger and tears. “You fools,you dare to attack me and then you kill my child” Kars yelled as he looked at them filled with rage,he had killed everybody in that tribe. After the slaughter of the tribe, Kars went to your body and took it to a flower field and placed your body there. Kars was sure of something he would kill all,and become the perfect being to make this world perfect for you.

yknow ever since people realized tumblr isnt dead and have decided to flock here from twitter and tiktok ive seen a huge influx of people in fandom spaces who dont reblog anything. at all.

like, i used to have an art blog with 340 followers. not a ton but not a small amount either given how this website works with creators. and in my experience back then even the ones who only left likes still reblogged other things or at least posted their own stuff. literally the only empty blogs were clearly bots.

but on this New art blog, i've had so many people with fandom-specific headers and icons with actual usernames as urls and some kind of title or description, but have. Nothing. no posts. all they do is like things. and it's always public, too. their following list and their likes list.

and honestly all it makes me think is that these people are New and also don't know how tumblr works. how likes don't give exposure. not even in a "oh, i know it doesn't give exposure, but i'm still going to reblog anyways" way, but in a genuine honest to god straight up doesn't realize tumblr likes don't work like twitter's.

PLEASE please if you're from tiktok or twitter or whatever please reblog people's art both fandom and original if you like it!! and maybe actually pad out your blog's content in some way so people won't potentially see you as a bot and block you.

REBLOG ARTIST'S WORK. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THEY GET ANY ATTENTION ON THIS WEBSITE OH MY GOD. PLEASE. I BEG of you

This is really important! Please call your reps to support if you can

The Arc

New Bill Would Allow People with Disabilities to Earn & Save More Money

The bill raises SSI asset limits from $2,000 to $10,000 for individuals and from $3,000 to $20,000 for married couples.

I think the thing that worries me so much about this tumblr plus bullshit isn’t the fact that creators can put their stuff behind a pay wall - for everyday regular bloggers that’s fine! Do what you want I guess.

But fanfiction writers CANNOT do this. Point blank PERIOD!

And some might say “oh but Aeryn it’s a choice! You don’t have to do it!” And, yes I KNOW this. I know it’s a choice. But younger fanfic creators out there may not be aware of the absolute shit show that went down several years ago where people SUED fanfiction writers over their work. And that is dangerous for many reasons.

These companies that own the characters we love do. Not. Care. About us. They will sue us the second some fanfic creator unwittingly uses this paywall to gain money from their fanfiction works. That is illegal. You CANNOT do that. You cannot gain money from fanfiction Bc technically it isn’t yours. The characters and the worlds are not ours and if just one of us gets caught doing it tumblr will get sued and we all know they don’t have the money to fight them and tumblr will go poof.

This post isn’t meant to be rude or demeaning or condescending. I am just genuinely so so worried about this because if it takes off, tumblr as a fandom space is as good as gone. And as much as I call this place a “hell site” I do love it. I love the community I’ve built here and the friends I’ve made and I don’t want to lose it because of the IDIOTS at yahoo want more money.

*sigh* so - please complain to tumblr about this and hope to god it doesn’t actually happen. For all fanfic writers sake.
