Are they genuine sevrets or are you just making shit up?

Thank you!

Hi OP!

I just wanted to say thank you to the OP and everyone else who's been so kind about my efforts. When I started doing this, I was really hesitant because I know absolutely nothing about photoshop or anything even remotely like that. To this day, I only know how to fool around with online editors and that limits my secret design a lot. Thank you for being patient with me, and for being such a fun community!

Cheers,

a secret maker

Who is Felix?

[(Anonymous)]

Welp. So... I know I read several of these books some years ago. I do recognise the names (and I even remember Mildmay's full weird-ass name. Probably because it is such a weird-ass name). But even after looking up the summaries just now I can't for the life of me remember anything - anything at all - about the plot.

Huh.

[(Anonymous)]

This is an interesting take. I always felt, if anything, that Felix was the author's self-insert, and Mildmay was written to be the character who would never give up on him. It's a series about trauma, and most traumatized people yearn for someone like that.

I would argue that it's pretty clear in all four books that Mildmay is very aware of how awful Felix is. That's sort of the point. He knows that Felix can be unreasonably cruel--he's been on the receiving end of it more often than not, after all--but he's also seen the side of his brother that's just small and scared. So Mildmay stays, and Felix tries to do better, and...

It's a sickeningly realistic story of fucked up people, nonny: the sort of people who in the real world are usually cast aside and forgotten, whose stories and humanity are devalued. So it doesn't surprise me that you describe the first book as "not ready to be published" and "at the start of the learning curve." If you cannot see the unflinching honesty and devastating reality in its pages, then the story isn't for you.

I hope you're able to forget it entirely.

Hmm. Does that mean the author was really into him, or does it mean that she was trying to portray this other character as having an overly rosy view of him?

[(Anonymous)]

Takes like this make me glad I'm not interested in writing anymore. If people read my stuff and mistook me portraying a character as being into another character for ME being into that character, I'd never get over the humiliation. Unfortunately, it's really common to think so nowadays with the rise of "what we write is exactly what we want for ourselves" thinking.

New Star Trek, even on TV with less lens flare, is particularly bad for this.

I really, really disliked this song when it first came out and it felt like it was freaking everywhere. Some of it was about the song itself, but some of it was her voice, too. I've mellowed on it some since, maybe due to nostalgia, but still don't really care for it that much.

Agreed so goddamn much. Learn to scroll, and learn to scan and glance too. People scream about spoilers and squick, which is completely self inflicted because they refuse to learn how to scroll and glance.

YES to the AU thing. I honestly miss the 2015 era of reading so many AOT AUs and the one I think of when it comes to Erwin x Levi is that fic where they kept meeting after every reincarnation throughout various periods of time (like a Victorian era, the cold warr, present day etc).
Just looked it up, it was called 'Again' by Cherry - its unfinished but idk if there could be an ending since they keep getting reincarnated in every chapter.

Also since I found it in my bookmarks, an AU where Erwin and Levi are both androids on the run; 'And The Shiny Beautiful Mechanical Wind' by wibblyR
https://archiveofourown.org/works/3372833?view_adult=true

Also also, a fun modern one where Levi gets invested in horny romantic fiction and is too embarrassed to tell Erwin about it; 'Hot & Horny Part I: A Lass’s Enchantment (Or: Levi's Good Read)' by imawarlock.
