Lust for a Vampyr

I finally finished my Helluva Bang fic yesterday, which is a complete relief holy shit- I decided against doing multiple projects since it's hard enough to completely concentrate on one at a time. Still waiting for my artists to update me, but I guess Ill just have to have faith in them to post on time. One of the contributors dmed the creator despite their artists` having provided a due date which. I don't want to be That Guy. 

There's been a lot of That Guys in this bang so far actually. When the event started and we were being assigned artists and writers I was assigned three artists initially. When I went go check their social media platforms, so I could see who Id be working with, I noticed one of them had a Tumblr that had a bunch of pro Israel propaganda. I wasn't comfortable working with someone like that, and the creator agreed, kicking that user off the event because he wanted to be sure there was no place for Zionist bullshit. The person made a stink over it but quieted down pretty quickly so I figured we were done with that shit. But then today, when I read one of the fics posted for the bang, at the very end of it there was an authors note saying they don't agree with us and would no longer be joining our events, something something antisemitism (despite Israel and Judaism not being interchangeable to anyone with a brain) but like. If they have such a strong moral objection to us, why did they go through with the event? 

It just struck me as oddly convenient that someone waits until the very end of the event to get on their high horse, you know, after having people provide free art to their fic... And I'm doubly suspicious because they did not tell anyone including their artists their plans. Almost like they knew they wouldn't be welcome in the event if they tipped people off to their bullshit and people wouldn't be so ready to provide free labor. I dunno, this is all probably chronically online bullshit but I found that particular incident infuriating honestly.

So yeah. There's just overall a lot of dumb shit shenanigans going on in this godforsaken fandom but when isn't there? On a semi related note, I'm already thinking of what my next fan project will be. Well, aside from shorter one shots I hope to write whenever inspo strikes. I've had this long form fanfic in mind for a while now, where the main pairing is Stella\Barbie Wire. Basically it details their relationship as a fucked up sugar mommy\ sugar baby dynamic as things just keep getting worse for Barbie Wire. I do plan on having Stoltz as a side pairing, partially because those are my guys but also I like the idea of setting up blitz\ stolas as as the girls' foils in a sense? Where they have similar circumstances but approached them in drastically different ways. Ill have to outline extensively but the loose ideas I have for this... its such a fun concept I can't wait to work on. 

Those are my latest updates ✌will probably add another soon :3
