COULD YOU NOT ARGUE THOUGH THAT DERIVATION AND ALLUSION AND INTERPRETATION AND ADAPTATION — THE CORNERSTONES OF FANFICTION — ARE IN FACT THE BASIS OF STORY ITSELF, THROUGH THE COLLABORATIVE AND CHANGING NATURE OF ORAL FOLKLORE AND MYTHOLOGY; THE KIND OF ORAL COLLABORATION NOW BELIEVED TO HAVE FORMED THE ILIAD AND ODYSSEY, WHICH, OF COURSE, RESULTED IN ONE OF THE EARLIEST LITERARY PIECES OF FANFICTION, VIRGIL’S EPIC STORY ABOUT A MINOR TROJAN PRINCE OF HOMERIC ORIGIN?

Got. to. reblog. happy. Martin. in. his. parka.
I just have absolutely zero interest in talking to dishonest people, I don’t even care if they’re compulsive liars or people who like taking advantage of gullible people or who pull pranks all the time or people who make everything into a stupid contest oh my god I don’t even care about your fucking calm and collected veneer I give zero fucks about your one-upmanship
all I care about is talking to people and talking about things we’re interested in like you tell me about your passions and I’ll tell you about Sherlock Holmes adaptations and we can discuss religion or philosophy or whatever
but if you’re an arsehole who makes everything into a contest and mocks people for having emotions and is always trying to find weaknesses in people so you can be better than them or show off or put them down then I don’t even care I will just mock your grammar and walk away I have zero interest in hanging out with the facade of a person

- me: no, mum, I'm pretty fuckin positive that it's sexism
- mum: but men aren't really interested in buying --
- me: no
- me: mum

hey hey guys remember that one time John had explosives strapped to him and snipers aimed him but he still held back a homicidal criminal genius to try to give a man he’d known for a matter of weeks a chance to escape
remember that
I read a fic with a ‘Sigerson’ reference in it and now I’m unbearably sad oh dear
