... but you wouldn't mind if someone else made them for you! As always, including the fandom and full character names is a big help, and while I'm definitely not the world's greatest expert at secret design, I'll try my best. Please note that long comment secrets can be difficult to make with a good end result. Most of the time, I'll give it a shot but might not be able to make secrets where the text is so lengthy that I can't fit it into the limited space.

I'm trying something new with the comment secret thread and extending the deadline to comment until Monday's post goes up. I'll monitor this thread until then, and hope the extra day will be more helpful for everyone.

Cheers,

a secret maker

P.S. Please don't worry if you've submitted a secret and it hasn't been posted yet. I usually post these threads before running out of the previous batch of secrets to get a head start on the next batch.

Out of all the scions Kryle is my least favourite by a long way. I don’t even think she’s particularly unlikeable or a bitch or anything like that.

I just find her so boring that I can’t bring myself to care when she’s a central part of any story, like sorry girl but I zone you out.

s!b: almost the entire player-base complained about Kryle ‘not getting her moment’ in Dawntrail when I was bored shitless when the story was focusing on her too much in Living Memory. Oops.

Her job is cool though, Pictomancer is a lot of fun!

Fandom: FF14, forgot to add that.

I've got this celebrity crush of 10+ years. I follow his work, both as an actor and writer. Liking him has had such a positive influence on my life!

Now he's in the public eye again because of a film project (which has already had controversy floating around it, nothing relating to him but disappointing anyway). It makes me think that I kinda dread looking him up during his "spikes" of fame. Nothing specific, just...a kind of anxiety that, at besty discourse will mildly sour something that's positive to me, and at worst, that in today's climate he may say something insensitive that may make my perception of him change and lowkey ruin it.

I feel so silly for this!

Without fail, every single time I post on FS that I am a fan of a celebrity, they unexpectedly and very publicly do something stupid or shitty, fans feel surprised and betrayed, and they end up falling from grace.

I'm starting to wonder if the curse will kick in even if I claim to be a fan of a celebrity I actually dislike...

I'm loving all the memes about Kregg being a dirtbag womanizer coming out from the Invincible fandom right now. It sure beats all the whining about animation quality.

Spoiler for Invincible Cartoon, and maybe comics.

I just want a live action sitcom about the Viltrumites being forced to integrate into modern America and not use their superpowers.

I know he was meant to be the child friendly star of the show, as the shy insecure nerd/schoolboy, but I never did relate to Wellington Womble. I always loved Orinoco Womble and Great Uncle Bulgaria more. Wellington was just too boring.
[The Wombles, 1973 cartoon and spin off live action movie]

I've seen all of the pictures of the celebrities who used and even abused weight loss drugs and the damage it did to their bodies and faces and yeeeetttt......

It's my only and last hope of losing my excess weight. I have to naively hope that it will be different for me.

I hear it's not too bad if you low dose it. Otherwise yeah, depending on the drug, I hear the side effects can be crazy.

I mean, IS it excess weight, or is it the shape your body naturally wants to be? I'm not saying there are no good reasons to want to lose weight, but there are a lot of bad ones, and the damage from that kind of weight loss can be deadly. I hate to see people put their bodies through that kind of stress just because we live in a world that is becoming increasingly hostile again to anyone over a size 7.

I'm about 50-70 pounds overweight, according to my doctor. I just feel like my knees and lower back are suffering, and my wife is so active and adventurous, so I want to keep u0 with her.

And honestly?

I'm tired of people seeing me and seeing "fat" first. My body feels like a liability now. It feels like my defining quality, and I hate that. I'm tired of being asked if I'm pregnant and I'm tired of feeling judged by strangers. I want to feel confident, you know?

I'm a 12-14. :(

Size 12 is not fat

Daniel Day Lewis was amazing as John Proctor in the filmed Crucible adaptation. I consider it to be one of his finest roles. I always cry at the ending.

I have no interest in video games.

I tried playing them as a kid, was bad at it, and didn't have the drive, discipline, or patience to get good at it, so I gave up.

Why is this a secret?

Why are you policing other people's submissions?

Project Hail Mary fans need to stop complaining about Iron Lung occasionally passing their feed. Ever since the crossover ship BloodyMary took off, I've had to wade through so much just to see a single Iron Lung post that doesn't have PHM in it.

(Fandoms: Iron Lung and Project Hail Mary movies. The ship is Simon (Iron Lung) x Grace (PHM))

I've been watching Race Across the World with my mother.

That's not the secret.

The secret is that in season four, Eugenie and Isobel reminded me of us, and season three's Tricia and Cathie is what I want our relationship to be like. I have terrible anxiety and my mother has been trying since we lost dad but doesn't really understand.

Seeing Tricia be supported by Cathie and the relationship between Ladi and Monique left me aching for something that can't be replaced

I cannot listen to the Maria Mena song "It Took Me By Surprise" anymore; it's far too painful and real now.

See, I got married right out of high school, to my boyfriend, and we were so happy.

But what burdened us was my undiagnosed bipolar disorder, and man, it ran him ragged. I was miserable to live with, I know. He was such a nice guy, and ended up despising me and turning cold and cruel.

And I feel like I pushed him to that.

We've been divorced since 2018.

[Star Trek TNG]
I like to head canon that before he made Commander, Riker was always in the "unisex" skants uniform. Just for the...ahem...quick ease of access, shall we say. I bet Frakes would have been down for that too, if Berman had let him.

You catch more flies with honey, yada yada,

But another part of this that doesn't really get discussed is how yes you can be as nice as you like, but that still won't guarantee interest in the thing you want to make. And I think more people who are into an unpopular fandom thing need to understand this, because there seems to be this bizarre expectation that if you do everything right people will flock to your creations, which... isn't true.

What's popular in a fandom is so for a reason and if you create something oppositive to that you have to be able to sit with the fact that you'll get less interest in what you're making. It's not fair, but it is reality.
