Reader: Fan-fiction
Relatable Writer & Reader ThingsThe Kinds of Fanfiction Readers
1. The readers:
When you start reading a well written, +100k fic with a nice plot and slow building romance that is actually realistic but you’re craving raw :
This is the fic we deserve but not the one we need right now

The fbi incharge of my phone: why is this girl so obsessed with angst and fanfictions?
My talents include….
being able to maintain a completely straight face while reading fairly intense in public
My talents do not include….
being able to stop smiling at anything remotely cheesy or fluffy

Someone: you're so innocent! It's sweet
Me: *thinks about the gay I read not even an hour ago*
Me: yeah, innocent...

My male friend: Fanfics are so boring and are just cheesy romance . Why you like to read that so much?
Me *reading an explicit/rough one-shot *: I’m a romantic person.

2. The I can't handle angst (but i still love it) readers
When you finally get to the angsty part of the fanfic
Brain: But why do you keep reading angst?
Heart: To prove that I can still feel things.

3. The one who just wants to read
I wanted to go to bed early today but gay fan fiction had other plans for me
Friend: have you ever read any fanfiction?
Me, thinking of my 600+ bookmarks and 57 opened tabs: yeah a bit

Me: yeah I love to read it’s awesome
Potential Friend: oh yeah? What’s your favorite book?

Probably my favorite thing about fanfiction is that whenever you are reading it, and you think “okay but if X thing happens, this scene will get 20 times more angsty and hilariously entertaining” …. that thing will ALWAYS, WITHOUT FAIL, HAPPEN.
Fanfiction authors always provide the most scream worthy deliciously dramatic content imaginable and it’s a delight (as well as a slow, miserable torture but that is a whole other post)
