Ava's Demon

[diet_poison]

Does anybody else read this?

I've been so frustrated by lack of an update schedule with sporadic updates in between giving me hope that one will happen :( I got into this during hiatus and I don't know if it will ever pick back up!

I love it though and want to talk about it with people. I went through a bunch of fanfiction a few months ago but there isn't much out there at this point.

I read it! I haven't seen the brand new updates because I prefer to read them in batches, otherwise I tend to forget what's going on. I'd been getting frustrated at the lack of updates too, only because she does livestreams of her drawing all the time and I wonder if she has so much time to do that, why can't she be using it to update the comic? But I don't want to complain too much, but I hope she's starting to do it regularly again.

Re: Ava's Demon

[diet_poison]

She did two updates in the last couple months which...gives me some hope? But it's still not a lot overall :(

Even once a week would be nice.

(I didn't know she did livestreams though, that sounds really cool! Are there any videos saved from them? Does she have a YT?)

Re: Ava's Demon

[(Anonymous)]

I follow her on twitter (@avasdemon), which is how I know about the streams. She always announces it there when she's doing one. She hasn't said anything about having a youtube account, no saved videos as far as I know :(

Re: Ava's Demon

[diet_poison]

Drat. :/ I don't really like Twitter and probably am not going to be motivated to check it all the time just to get news about one fandom.

I wish she'd post the news on her site more.

Re: Ava's Demon

[(Anonymous)]

I kind of lost track of it because it never updated. If she ever starts updating regularly again, maybe I'll pick it up again?

Re: Ava's Demon

[diet_poison]

Understandable! That's kind of why I feel off the Homestuck wagon though I am trying to get caught up on that in the next few weeks.

Re: Ava's Demon

[(Anonymous)]

From what I heard, she kind of lost a lot of drive after her comic's fandom was being a cesspool full of massively entitled, spiteful assholes who constantly complained, tried to dictate what she had to do with her story and accused her of just about every -ism there is and lovely things like paedophilia etc. - so yeah, I kind of get why she isn't updating all that much anymore.

Re: Ava's Demon

[diet_poison]

Wow that really sucks. :( This is why we can't have nice things!!!

Is this mostly a Tumblr-based fandom, or Twitter, or somewhere else?

Also wtf pedophilia? I don't understand any of the "isms" with her but that one least of all, none of her characters are children...they're all teens right? (Ok, Ava might be a kid but I don't really read her that way, she's like 14 to me) and anyway people draw kids all the time and I......don't get it.

What are the accusations based on?

ETA didn't she also say that she had the whole story mapped out in her head before she even started drawing it? So telling her where she needs to go with it is so extra stupid aaaaagh

DA

[(Anonymous)]

The pedophilia accusation was because she drew a suggestive picture of Maggie (IIRC she was naked behind strategically placed flowers and giving a sort of sultry look). She even said Maggie was "aged up" in the picture, although I don't know if that was before or after the accusations. And either way, she's at least 15 in canon, like you said people draw more explicit fanart of characters that age all the time and nobody cares

And if she was planning to make Odin/Ava canon, that would also be pedophilia because Ava looks 12!!! Other people in the fandom were already getting called out as "triggering" for shipping it. The fandom's obsession with the whole topic is just overblown and weird.

Re: DA

[diet_poison]

Oh, I think I know what picture you're talking about. And yikes, what a silly response.

I ship Odin/Ava, I guess that means I'm a pedophile? There's a lot of fic for it though (most of it bad, and when I say "a lot" I mean relative to the size of the fandom, but still) so obviously I'm not the only one.
