Description:

A black-and-white cartoon comic follows its creator from their teenage years reading fic in a classroom, through glimpses of canon moments from Doctor Who, The Avengers, and Sherlock, to the experiences of other fans and back to the now-older creator as they muse on their changing opinion of fix-it fic.

( Transcript of Comic Text )

Yeah, this got me. I'm a sucker for a good fix-it fic, and it's a storytelling impulse that I feel warmly about in general. I've especially been thinking about this topic lately—and some of the related canon moments—thanks to a bit that hit home in

JessieGender1's recent Star Trek Strange New Worlds Is a Centrist Space Fantasy video essay that talked about the storytelling worldviews in which change requires a body count and about the narrative incorporation of ungrievable lives. (Two recs for the price of one in this post!)

This comic is sweet and touching, with great pacing and choice of visuals. I especially love the spot where we see darkness giving way to light and the shots of people writing. It gave me some fuzzy feelings about fandom and encouraged me to open back up a fix-it draft of my own.

ANGEL: What did you mean before? “The Beast is going to turn out the sun.” Is that some kind of metaphor?
MANNY: Sorry. I don’t speak “college boy”. I said what I meant. This Beast you’re talking about? He’s looking for a way to put an end to daylight. He wants to blot out the sun permanently.
ANGEL: You’re saying once the totems are dead, the sun disappears?
MANNY: Not disappears, exactly. And it’s not just killing us, either. There’s props and a ritual and a chant and a thing and a… suffice to say, it ain’t easy. And folks in the Ra-tet, they got some serious juice which is why I never felt worried before.
ANGEL: But you’re worried now.
MANNY: Well, four out of five down… let’s just say I’m not looking forward to my retirement in Boca.

Comedic trends have come and gone, but some have changed how comedy is done. Do you have any thoughts about which comedy shows might have been particularly influential?

Or which comedies have influenced your own sense of humor?

GLORY (to Dawn): And I could use a little pick-me-up. Two birds, one stone, and... (claps her hands in front of Dawn's nose) Boom!
Dawn looks very scared.
GLORY: You have yummy dead birds.
The door bursts open and Buffy enters, followed by the others.
BUFFY: Get away from my sister.
GLORY: Hey, we were just talking about you. (Dawn runs over behind Buffy)
BUFFY: Conversation's over, hell bitch.

Drabbles

Fandom: Word of Honor (TV)
Characters: Wen Kexing/Zhou Zishu

Wen Kexing awoke with a start, shaking off the nightmare and looking down at the man asleep beside him. Zishu was restless, murmuring as if caught in his own nightmare. Concerned by the pallor of his skin and the sweat beading on his forehead, it seemed only natural to grasp the twitching fingers. Zishu sat up with a gasp, blood on his lips and his breathing was ragged, his Qi pulsing weakly. Kexing moved behind and forced his own Qi into the sick man, shoving down the crushing fear that Zishu was running out of time for both of them.

Fandom: The Yin-Yang Master Dream of Eternity
Characters: Qingming/Boya

Qingming raised his cup of wine and watched as Boya stalked away with a disgruntled expression that would have been amusing on anyone else, but for some inexplicable reason he wanted Boya to like him. He hid his melancholy thoughts and smiled at the lesser demons he had invited to sip wine with him, noticing one of them watching him intently.

"He did not like seeing you in our company."

Qingming's smile waned. "He has no love for demons."

"Perhaps most demons but not all. That was jealousy not anger."

"Jealous? Of me?"

The demon laughed. "No. Jealous of me."

Fannish Interests: Writing fanfics, making fanart, participating in community events or challenges, meta, rambling about headcanons or just thoughts about a thing in general

OTPs and Ships: I'm not very particular about top/bottom dynamics; I have preferences, but I'm fine with whichever arrangement. I'm also a huge multi-shipper and if I list everything out, this will get really long, so I'll just list my top ships lol
