I am guilty of this on my old FFnet account that I no longer have access to ;_;
I didn't mean to be part of the problem - I saw that everyone else had abandoned their fics like that and thought that that was what you were suppose to do with long incompleted fics I'M SORRY.

[(Anonymous)]

So I sort of agree? More so with the imperialism than the sexism, but a little bit with the sexism.

I don't like the sexism and imperialism but I think it is part of the legacy of the franchise, dovetailing with the fact that Bond as a character kind of has to be at least a little bit of a prick. It's important there is this slightly negative, grim aspect to the franchise and character. Bond is a coldblooded killer and an asshole committing crimes in the service of a deeply objectionable fading empire. You need a little tint of that in with the jet-setting glamor to give the whole thing the proper feeling.

[(Anonymous)]

I did this when I was a noob with fics that were in fact complete but but fully published yet. I was very stupid, I'll admit.

I never saw a James Bond movie. I had always eyerolled at Connery Bond (because I grew up in the Brosnan Bond Era). Then I saw Connery Bond (I think it was Octopussy? Where he slaps the blonde woman by the poolside?), and I have to agree with you.

[(Anonymous)]

I’m just ready for Bond to have slightly more interesting imperialism, misogyny, and other flaws.

Make him condescending about foreign nations, completely convinced of the superiority of modern Britain, and also conspicuously non-racist. Make him believe that equal personal relationships with women are impossible, but also professional with the ones he works with. Make him an active seductor, someone who’s highly emotionally manipulative and ready to seduce women, men, and anyone else.

i disagree about sexism to an extent. like modern levels i don't think you could take out, but i don't think it needs to be 1950s-1990s levels.

the imperialism is foundational. i mean, it's about a spy! that's the point, and the only way you avoid it is if you write a story where bond is truly burned not whatever the last movies were doing. and that's just mission impossible so...

Just read ATLA airbender fic that was marked as complete. 150,000+ words. Last two chapters were just "chapter will be posted soon." From years ago. Whyyyyy is it marked complete?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, that sounds pretty obnoxious. I get the author might be "done" with it but that's not the same thing as the story being complete.

That just makes me think you have bad media literacy.

I read about an anime where the love interest was revealed to have an ex-boyfriend, and the fanbase revolted because they wanted their waifu to be “pure.” MHA fandom isn’t that bad.

Is How I Met Your Mother a "dead trash fire"?

And their take on Lupin/Sirius is trash.

Did Pterry actually know and enjoy Sailor Moon or...? I don't mean to be rude, but I don't really see the connection here. Is this really about Pratchett's media preferences or OP doing some mad projection?

I'm sure you're not a bad as you think OP. But in any case you could always write it for yourself and never publish it, just because it's fanfic doesn't mean you have to put it anyway, especially if you're worried about your overall quality of writing.

I do this with certain types of ships that I know no one else will want to read, I write it for myself so I can read them and be happy. So if you want to I'd 100% suggest giving it a go, making yourself happy is a perfectly valid reason to create something even if it will only have an audience of one. Because imo there's never any wasted time with creative pursuits. :)
