F!S Anon Meme (the ??th)


Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required (for those who struggle with recaptchas and stuff).
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it, though!

(Today's post is below.)

Ugh! Yes, I hear you! I didn't save one piece of art from a site and now it's gone and I really would've liked to have saved it.

It really sucks, anon. I should have snapped up that image as soon as I saw it. :( I was such a damn fool.

Same here. I actually thought I had saved it, but a thorough search of my hard drive proved completely fruitless and I can't believe that I hadn't saved it.

I could have sworn I'd saved mine too but it was just a figment of my imagination, it seems. For the next for days after I had discovered the artist had taken it fown, my memory of the image fucking taunted me. I can still see it so clearly.

I've vaguely entertained notions of contacting the artist to see if they still have it, but that be creepy. Plus you know, I'd need a translator.

That totally sucks. Do they have a Pixiv account you could track down?

(For curiosity's sake, what's the pairing?)

They have a pixiv account, but I don't know anyone who could translate for me. Plus, the image was on their twitpic account which I only managed to find out about during the rare times they unlock their twitter.

It was fanart for Heero/Wufei from Gundam Wing.

If you do want to contact them, I can translate for you.

Really?! That's so great of you to offer, but I'm not sure if I should. A part of me thinks it would be pretty creepy/odd because of how I managed to find it. Like I said, their twitter is usually locked and it was miracle that I checked it when it wasn't. They don't have a link to their twitpic on their twitter profile thing either. Don't want to weird them out.

I would really love to see if they still have that image though. Especially since fansrt for my otp os so rare. Sorry for being indecisive and rambling. How long does your offer stand?

As long as you want! I might stop checking this thread after a while, though, so if you decide to take me up on it you should probably PM me. c:

Thank you so much!! I will try not to take too long to make up my mind. If I do decide to, I will make DW account and pm you. :3 You're fucking awesome for offering to do this. Your offer made me so happy. Hope that doesn't sound weird.

No, that's not weird at all! It would be weird if it made you sad. :P You're very welcome!

Ayrt again

What was the fandom for the image you forgot to save?

Re: japanese fandom etiquette

Pokémon. The artist had drawn a pair of images of Palmer and Lucas' father from Diamond and Pearl (only we never see Lucas' father, so they'd made something up) and whilst I didn't save either of them, I only wanted the one of Lucas' dad.
