I just woke up and am hypothesizing:
Has anyone else every thought that a large part of the reason romantic fanfiction is so attractive to women is that a majority of the authors are women? And women know how to write the female gaze. Having the female gaze applied to your favorite media (which is probably heavily effected by the male gaze) is attractive.
I remember a poll someone did for fanfiction authors and a large chunk, much bigger than 80%, were women and when I write a lot of the times it’s my fluff scenes that readers seem to be more effected by.
fast redraw from anime called Mobile Police Patlabor well i just saw the scene from it on tiktok
my dream as a fanfic writer is for one day, one of my fics to be someones comfort fic. like the fic that they reread when they don't feel good and want to be happy. i want my words to comfort someone one day
And then we found you. The child with the broken brain. The one insanity couldn't touch. Tales From The Gas Station Vol 4
Poor Clive
I can envision him both speaking his mind and being quiet about it. Like “I see, you do not see me as a husband, but as a roommate,” and nothing after that. Then he distances himself. Starts buying more frozen dinners and sending Jason home early.
Jason is now mortified and doesn’t quite know what to say. He tries to broach it a few times but Clive is always busy and has other things to do.
A modern day AU where Clive is a lonely researcher and Jason works part time at a dumpling soup shop and at an office supply store.
Clive only goes out for three things - food, office supplies, and basic necessities. Somehow he runs into Jason doing all three of these. And somehow, the chef/server who will let Clive rant about his research, coworkers, the university (all while looking very interested), remembers his name and says hi to him every time they see each other.

I’m a big giant sucker for your Harry with his gorgeous dimples, so my doodle request (if it sounds like something you’d like to draw) is Draco admiring Harry’s dimples - maybe rubbing his thumb over them or kissing them...whatever you feel like drawing. I just love your art so much. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for this request, this was really self-indulgent, haha. <333
