writethisfanficI have just been doing an enormous mountain of washing-up (about five days' worth; a the hazard of bachelor living!) and vaguely thinking about possibly typing something... How is progress feeling for other people?
Question of the day: what do you do next when you have just finished a fic?

In the Disney film adaptation, Lady Tremaine shatters the prince's copy of the glass slipper, but Cinderella proves her identity by presenting the other slipper.
Mod Post: Off-Topic Tuesday
Jan. 6th, 2026 09:12 amicon_uk posting in scans_dailyIn the comments to these weekly posts (and only these posts), it's your chance to go as off topic as you like.
Talk about non-comics stuff, thread derail, and just generally chat among yourselves.
The intent of these posts is to chat and have some fun and, sure, vent a little as required. Reasoned debate is fine, as always, but if you have to ask if something is going over the line, think carefully before posting please.
Normal board rules about conduct and behaviour still apply, of course.
It's been suggested that, if discussing spoilers for recent media events, it might be advisable to consider using the rot13 method to prevent other members seeing spoilers in passing.
The world situation is the world situation. If you're following the news, you know it as much as I do, if you're not, then there are better sources than scans_daily. But please, no doomscrolling, for your own sake.
Though... I mean... c'mon 2026, could you have not given us just a couple of weeks of relative calm? Was that SO much to ask? But... well... here we are.
The "Stranger Things" finale aired, with mixed, though generally positive reviews, though it did confirm the complete lack of the most hotly fanticipated slash pairings in recent media. Honestly, I never saw it myself, and I prefer the ending both characters got, but I appreciate that many were hoping for it.
Yoroi Shin Den Samurai Troopers released it's OP, and the first episode aired in Japan today. Heavy on the neon, but a couple of nice nods to the original series openings.

Jan. 5th, 2026 11:54 pmigenlode posting in writethisfanficIt's a very cold Monday (not a good day for my boiler to go on the blink, but I think I've successfully reset it...)
Did your writing process freeze over in the course of the day, or is it flowing freely?
Question of the day: how do you handle a plot-hole if you notice one?

hey there
Jan. 5th, 2026 05:25 pmaatroxirl posting in addme_fandomi want to start using this site a bit more, so why not.
name: aatrox
age: early 20s
country: im in latin america.
subscription/access policy: i dont plan on making anything friends/access only, not right now anyway. so sub if you think reading my stuff would be cool. i dont plan on posting any NSFW, and id appreciate if you didnt give me access if you post NSFW frequently.
main fandoms: switches a lot, but currently its sega dreamcast games (especially sonic & phantasy star), pokemon, league of legends, and madoka magica.
other fandoms: mario & dk, undertale, 07th expansion, danganronpa, touhou, ace attorney, fighting games, homicipher, houseki no kuni. i have more interests on my sticky post, but its a bit outdated.
fannish interests: art, selfshipping, meta & analysis. also into internet archeology, which naturally bleeds over to fandom. i dont read fanfics.
ships: hard time naming any that would match with someone else nowadays, because all i like is crackships. its easier to name ships i dislike than like.
i like to post about: ive been mostly posting reviews of games ive played recently, but like i said i might start posting more general stuff. i dont currently plan on posting anything thats too outside fannish interests, so dont worry if you dont want to see unrelated rambles.
journal info: i make lenghty posts that ramble a lot and i dont typically cut them. SORRY.
other info: i dont plan on getting into this kind of discourse here, but right off the bat, if youre into ships that are between adult and children, or incest, or indulge in erotic content that involves characters who are children, dont interact with me please. for less serious topics, we might not get super along if youre more into works that are live action/use real actors, its just not stuff im into. finally im a selfshipper and its a big part of my online identity; feel free to ask for details if youre also into that, but dont involve me in discourse.

Metamorpho has been one of DC’s second-tier stars since 1965, and unlike a lot of characters without long-running series of their own, he’s retained his supporting cast.
