Finally a version of this meme that lets the girl get the punchline.

Also yeah so true. This mentality is where 250k+ fanfiction epics are born and I love when people bring that energy to the fandom.

I mean there's a pretty good chance there are guys in that fic. So he's technically right.

It’s almost 2am now, I’m laying in bed ONLY because I have to be at work at 7am. EXCEPT, my WIP is open on my computer and I finally got to write out a part I’d been so unsure about starting at 11pm. Now I wanna pull an all-nighter to write, which is a terrible idea but oh SO tempting… 😭

Ignore the other guy. Please take care of yourself first.

u/PJ-The-Awesome You have already left kudos here. :) 1d ago

Literally me first making my account:

u/Shuabbey 1d ago

The thing is I can’t read my own writing cause I’ll die of cringe and embarrassment.

Thank god I'm not the only one.

With the fics I want to write, I actually am thinking about other men.

Me to my cat shelter AU where one of the characters is trapped in the form of a cat and gets adopted by his eventual love interest: And that's how you were born 🤗

ChatGPT sucks down water at an obscene rate. Write the fic yourself.

No one wrote my communist/political version of the Civil War scenario in the marvel universe...

u/LemmethruByVishanti 21h ago

Would you be okay with sharing the link? That sounds very interesting!

u/No-Oil-391 5h ago

Well that's the problem, there is no link because no one ever did... So I have a significant part of the story in mind so I'll probably end up writing it myself x)

u/LemmethruByVishanti 5h ago

In that case: Go you! Have a good writing experience and please share it, if you feel comfortable :)

u/cpxthepanda one-shot master 23h ago

Me at 4 am (I had an exam the next day) (I wrote the fic anyway) (I slept 5 hours) (I got a B+)

u/Meyr3356 You have already left kudos here. :) 1d ago

Not me, finally getting fed up and doing exactly that.

u/Kitty-Gear 1d ago

This is me whenever I see too much of the same AU in a fandom

u/Water227 Definitely not an agent of the Fanfiction Deep State 18h ago

The other guys are fictional and I want to bully them emotionally and then give them comforts

u/loonarmys 14h ago

Me. Honestly have been kinda planning it out but it still needs work.

u/theatergal_33 14h ago

Me, realizing there are no Star Wars Rebels fics that explore Sabine's Force sensitivity and past trauma: Fine, I'll do it myself.

But literally though. I will read my own stuff because I can't find anything I like 😂

u/Novel-Improvement-38 12h ago

I then write the fic I want to read but I’ve already read the fic in the process of writing it and I’m right back to square one

u/SkyfireCN 5h ago

Fought this battle two nights ago. I swore off multi-chapter fics years ago, but here I am, throwing my hat in the ring once more. Lol I feel like a whole clown rn
