I'm out.
I've never been massively involved in the fandom per se, but the show itself provided a world that I enjoyed being creative within, and this site gave that creativity a home. Over the past week or two, I've seen and read enough to know in my heart that I just can't enjoy being creative here anymore, and I'm done trying to convince myself otherwise.
All the best, folks. Try to look after yourselves.

Wish you the best as well. You made some great stuff!
‘Tis a shame to see you depart again, but, given our recent circumstances, it's an understandable decision to make.
Adieu, paperhearts. Take care and stay well.
That's...sudden and unexpected and extremely disheartening to hear. What happened?
Damn.

What recent circumstances? What the Heck did I miss?!
I hope things go well for you. I hope you find a new outlet. If you haven't, there is Archive of Our Own. Its an amazing site, for writers of all kinds, originals and fandoms. I am not the only FimFic writer with an account there who posts the same, and different, works.

I could very well be wrong, but the "Over the past week or two" line leads me to believe that the whole Nazi imagery debate wore them down.

Oh God dammit...
Oh ph, I’m sorry. I’ll miss you tons. 🖤
When good people leave and bad people stay, eventually you just have bad people. Good luck out there.

Or rather eventually we just have bad people...the people who left don't. They've left.

Perhaps more the thing itself and less the debate about it?
Thanks for your stay. I wish you the best of luck in all your future projects.
First, and most importantly, thank you for everything you've contributed. This website and this fandom as a whole are better places because of them.
Second, I wish you all the very best with wherever you go from here. If that includes creating things elsewhere, I'm sure your audience will be fortunate indeed.
Third, you will be missed here. I know I will miss you. Should you ever change your mind, you'll always be welcome. If not, I and many others will remember you fondly.
Take care, and I wish you the happiest possible future.
Really sorry it's come to this. It's your decision, of course, and I really hope you'll be happier - but know that you will be missed. Thank you for everything.

Thank you for the kind words, honestly. I'm moving myself over to AO3 for the purposes of future fanfic/original work (now updated in the post) so feel free to stop by there from time to time if you've enjoyed my writing or want to say hello. I've enjoyed our chats and the comments, but yes, very much done here.

Lots of things really, most of which will cumulatively make me sound pretty dramatic. But basically, I'm tired. I'm tired of the idiots, both here and in the wider fandom. I'm tired of the petty behaviour and the bullying, and I'm tired of the people who drown out important debates with their own self-importance. I'm tired of trying to feel how my type of work fits within an environment that feels so toxic and unfriendly, and ultimately I realised that perhaps it just doesn't. Or, perhaps it just doesn't seem worth sharing it here anymore. Like I said, probably a little dramatic and probably a little egotistical of me, but there you go.

Thank you for the pointer. I was already considering it, and your comment helped sway me into the decision.

Found you! Subscribed! You are certainly worth following. And don't you ever forget that!
5301729
I’ll be sure to find you and subscribe/watch your work as soon as I log in again. Take care. 🖤
Could you mark incomplete stuff on here as cancelled? Otherwise it’s going to keep showing up under incomplete stories and won’t be able to be filtered out in searches.
5301746
As you wish. Done.

Good luck with everything!

I’m...really sad to have read you went through all of that here.

Thank you for the AO3 pointer. I will definitely keep an eye on that. I hope you find it a more congenial place, and are just generally happier for the change.
