HELLO
ALL except picky and casual....
I'm a proud binge reader
"How much fanfics do you read in a day?"
"Yes"
yes
About 10-20
Yes
9 or 10.Depends if I'm early enough to wake up to read or if my phone is 100%
No idea but definitely more than 5-
"This is promising"
"And I hate that side ship"
ME LITERALLY ME.
Same!!!!
Bruh sameeeee
Ssssaaaaaaaaammmmmmeeeeeee
We be twinning
This is me but can I just safely say for the record, the reason I'm like that is because I'm not fond of shipping. I like reading fics that do a good job of showing character development instead of the main plot be hindered by a ship, idk maybe it's just me. I can enjoy when a ship is done right in a fic but most of the time I'm not a fan.
when no fanfiction exists for the character you like:
"i know what i must do but i don't know if i have the strength to do it"
The guy in Jurassic park who ran out with two drinks in hand
I will be writing that myself 😭
@@samatethemultiverse thank you 😭
Quit exposing me like that ! But I don't think I'm doing it right. That, or the others aren't simply interested in my writing.
YES
I think so fanfic readers are a perfect example of,
“Give an inch and they’ll run a mile.”
100%
The first fanfic ive read was a major character death sad ending angst book
Ever since then i have lived for angst books
"What're you doing?"
"Reading."
"What're your reading?"
"... You'll never catch me alive"
Literally me 😂
Bro I just say some random title of a book I saw like a year ago...
Gloom town.
Its always gloom town.
They dont ask questions.
They dont need to.
this is true but my mom thinks I am playing video games-
Lmfao my husband always tries to be sly and be like 'whatcha reading?' sliding his head onto my lap but I slam it shut and be like nooooothhhinnh. Yet he always know what obsession I'm in currently 😒 so not sure why he be askin 🥴🥴
My mom with me for some reason
“what are you doing on your phone?”
“...reading.”
“what are you reading?”
“...a story.”
“oh! what’s it about?”
“...stuff.”
That’s me
i mean reading fan fics are still reading so i do read more than 20 mins teacher just not the books you give me read for hours actually.
why is this me?
Why? Why is this so… relatable
The way this has happened to me every single time I read fics i-
As an ao3 author, sometimes I write fics at school. One girl thought I was making a book. I had to explain what fanfiction was to her. I orphaned my embarrassing smut fics so no one would see the weird tags. I once saw someone reading said smut fic in class. Took everything to make myself not scream in terror
Rookie mistake, leaving a witness alive like that.
@@Hewasnumber1 XD
I've been reading so many fanfics recently that my brain has started to narrate my life like a fanfic
me too
Omggg you know it gets bad when you channel your inner Y/N and start describing your own appearance when you look in the mirror.

reading smut: pokerface
reading fluff: has to take multiple breaks, cant stop blushing/freaking out, almost throws phone against wall
You forgot the squeals over fluff scene and get stared at like you're a crazy person 🤣
I get desensitized after the first few chapters of smut. Like, the first few I'll be making fun of it while crying of cringe and then after that I just have a pokerface and read it without any comments
True story
me
Yeppers
"How much fanfics do you read in a day?"
"How many breads have you eaten in your life?"
I feel so related
Lmao JJBA reference lol
*laughs in gluten intolerance*
I'm binge reader,picky,reads everywhere and lemon
*sweats in garlic bread*
“Imagine if Jungkook oppa picks you up and slams you to the wall”
Had me crying and laughing at the same time
I’d love to have a librarian-type friend that could you your perfect fic in a matter of seconds 😂
I would too
“I JUST FOUND A NEW REASON TO LIVE AND ITS 500,000 WORDS LONG” ACTUALLY ME
...yeah. The more it fits into novel-lenght wordcount, the better :'3
I know one like that. Its called new blood by Artemisgirl on ff.net. its a hp fanfic. Enjoy!!
Literally MEEEE!!
Wow I can fucking relate to this
I think that’s more words than in Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix 😂
And I’ve read all of Harry Potter
School: how many books do you read each week?
Me: define book
Just put fic word limits in book page calculators online and be like 170k fic? No, I just read a 400 page book.
Ikr, discord, fanfiction, comics/manga?
School: nope sorry doesn't count
😂😂😂😂
If that ain’t me, I don’t know what is😂
Me: Bük?
It's funny how my friends who write fanfics were discussing how to write a heavy, emotional scene that would kinda shock the readers + feel pity towards the ml. But didn't include me because they thought I was only a fluff/smut reader🙂
The looks on their face as I described in great detail how I would slowly 'break down' the ML mentally as physically got me laughing so hard afterwards. They were literally shocked to their core. Yet, I sometomes help them with some of these scenes now. 🤣
Exactly
I’m the worst combination of gets emotionally invested, overly picky, and vanilla reader because I only ever read hurt/comfort, angsty, well written fics and I’m very lucky to be in a fandom that has an excess of those
Reading fluff: smiling uncontrollably
Reading smut: giggling uncontrollably
Fr I'm like 😃🥺 then two paragraphs later 😳😂🙃
how my friends know what im reading
I laugh at it all..
Even like the saddest things I laugh at it because of the comments f*ing around
@@annester9162 *R E L A T A B L E* the comments make it all fun- 🤣🤣
@@annester9162 that's true!
Parents: Honey, get off the phone and do something productive, like reading
Me: I’ve been reading for the past 5 hours wut you talkin about
Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣
Kindle is my best friend for that reason. I can even read T or below at work then!
My ma never said anything about reading ever again
SAME
Even tho I'm not a little kid, I got stuck in lockdown with my parents and 24/7 My dad is like ”get off that phone, you aren't doing anything”
Like bitch, i’ll have you know that I am expanding my vocabulary
¡ ! LOL, yup, expanding your vocabulary by reading that fourth grader's fan fic made in 2015
Me opening a fic: yay :) I finally found a fic with this specific tag that I like! The summary seems good and- *wait no it's written in all lowercase*
It’s all one run-on sentence!!!😱 And-oh no! They reuse the same phrase over and over! Do they know what a thesaurus is?! It could have prevented this horror!😱
I swear they are so annoying
i hate it when that happens
I'm a picky reader. The only fanfic that I liked was on hiatus for about two years. I just read it on repeat now when I can't find any other fanfics because I don't have a life
Relatable!!
Say "I" if you've had your heart broken by a discontinued fic
That's why i only read completed fanfic now
I 😭
It's the worst when it says "completed", but the last chapter is author's notice, and they don't even have the decency to put "discontinued" in the summary.
However, it once happened to me, that a fic i started reading in my beginner times stopped updating and after nearly a year of checking it i gave up. Then, a couple years later i randomly clicked on it's bookmark, and saw new chapters recently(like, a few days before) added and i was beyond happy. I was proud to read that fic to completion.
I

"This could be promising, aaaand I hate that side ship."
relatable
Lol I usually still read it haha
relatable indeed
and now i list a prime example: shipping oscar pine from RWBY with literally anyone. no. just no. cease.
Oh my goodness yes
ALLLLLL THE TIME
lmaoo relatable
Same
I think each one of us has gone through a "shameless" phase.
I remember I was in a bank reading a fanfic because it was that bomb and two boys were possibly peeping over my phone but I'm not sure...I was too engrossed in that fic.
Fanfics have helped me maintain my high reading level, if only because I can tell when something doesn’t sound right and I think the fic needs a beta. I’m a binge reader, and I am constantly reading and looking for more fics to read. I have had sleepless nights when in the grip of good fics.
Same.
i don't think anyone here is a “casual reader”
...I dont read fanfic anymore, but I like Coley 😂
Edit: 1 week later and I've relapsed back into reading it 😃
Actually, i am :)
Me? I only read a few fics one day then I don’t until the next week. Lmao my fic reading schedule is weird.
@@Mxshrxxmbxy for me I read ff for like 4 days straight, read something that kinda fucks up my head then dont read any for like 2 weeks until I can be bothered to 😂
@@marcie_willow_2990 Same
Can we all agree that the casual reader doesn’t exist
Uhh so... I guess I don't exist
But that's me...
I exist...
They’d don’t exist because we read fanfics Every. Single. D a y.
I would say I’m a combination of the casual reader and the picky af one. I like reading fanfiction but I don’t actively seek it out, and I can’t stand reading anything that isn’t well-written 😅
I'm just realising now that I may have traded one addiction for another when I went from videogames to reading fics. To be fair I started out absolutely BINGEING Wuxia and Xianxia novels (they scratched my adventurous power fantasy itch so damn good), but then one day I got recommended to a fanfic reddit and the rest was history. To be fair the pandemic made it easier/ worse but the road to recovery begins with acceptance, right? Right??
As a fanfic writer my goal is to make readers cry 🤣
“THIS HAS LESS FLOW THAN THE LAST DAY OF YOUR PERIOD” IM CRYING

Welp... Is a video about "types of fanfiction readers" so.. they can read, the did a nice dodge
Those types are a diff kind of crazy
Hi I'm Jared I'm 19 and I don't know how to read
Alexa, play "Fuck This Shit I'm Out!"
I accidentally read a vore doujinshi once. Vore, guro, smegma, and scat are things I like to avoid.
i have recently found a new OTP for a new fandom and i am SCRAPING THE BOTTOM OF THE BARREL. there are around 6 fics on wattpad (the only site i know how to use) with this pairing and like 3 oneshot books. i have seen unimaginable things with this pairing and i am eating it up like FUCKING baby food.
I know the pain. Fifty fics in my favorite pairing and it’s all written by illiterate monkeys. But I still read that slop because I am desperate.
Have been tossing a few ideas of my own to try re-injecting life into it. But the burden of expecting oneself to surpass all those who have tried before them weighs heavily on my shoulders. Thus far I have gotten a single fic out and despite my pride in it, I feel it was… incomplete. A thing of whimsy, and not my magnum opus, as I hoped it would be. Now, my second attempt is shaping up to be a Frankenstein’s monster of multiple ideas forced together.
Sorry for the mad raving. Don’t know what came over me.
@@Hewasnumber1THIS IS SO REAL I’m always a rarepair enjoyer born to read scrumptious exquisite fics made by masterful writers forced to write the fics I can only dream of truly capturing with my current writing abilities, oh well…
when the fandom you wanna find a story for either has no stories, unfinished stories or just really terribly written boring stories.
Me: gets really invested in a fanfic The fanfic: last posted 2017 me: *TRIGGERED*
AND ITS ALWAYS THE GOOD ONES TOO
@@safiyahjenner8545 OMG IKR I was legit reading a fanfic yesterday for six hours straight then it said updated last in 2019!!!!!!
My worst nightmare
Bruh, my favorite fanfic was the last update 02/19/2020, bc the writer is a doctor, so started the pandemy, so she is very busy util now days. So I have to pray to her still alive and Covid-19 be f*cked as soon (what will be very later, bc I live in Brazil and her too, and we are like, in the 3th groove of the pandemy). I've never hated Covid-19 so much, like, bruh! I head this fanfic in the last 4 years, the writer even give me happy birthday and show ups a new chapter in my 14th birthday! I want to know what is the end!!
@@anaclaragomes4228 wow a good reason for once- all the fanfics that haven’t been updated for me are just bc they creator always says they have no motivation and/or just don’t want to continue the fanfic
“Warning: Suicide, death, gore, and the rest of “usual warnings”
Me: *peeeerfect*
I have found my twin
I guess we’re triplets
quatruplets?
Yes.
Why are we so fucked
Binge watcher+emotionally invested+self insert+constantly reading+picky af= ✨ME✨
I am a *perfect* mix of the binge reader, gets super emotionally invested and vanilla reader TvT
The "100k words? It's a snap!" killed me, because I once counted the words of the dozens of fics I read within a few hours and it was roughly around 100k XD (Tho it's either all or nothing for me; if I start reading, I READ FOR *WEEKS,* but if I stop, I forget that fanfics exist for weeks-)
And I get super emotionally invested cause I usually *am* overly sensitive, *specially* when it comes to characters I love, -so, like an idiot, I proceed to read Angst and hurt myself T^T Why am I like this--
And I said Vanilla reader, because I literally *CANNOT* with *anything* explicit in *that* kind of way, like Creepypasta or Danganronpa (Both fandoms I've been in/am in) type gory Angst? Fine, anything even remotely related to the deed? *NO-*
Random fact: My favorite Fanfic genres are Hurt-comfort, Fluff and Angst ^^
The emptiness you feel after finishing a really good fanfic is...
Especially if it's a long one. I just finished one that was 700 pages, written beautifully, and was everything I could have asked for between these 2 characters. When I finished it I just sat there for a few minutes thinking "Well now what the hell am I supposed to do.
?"
The story was so good that there was no way I could start another one, and the story was so complete that they lived out their lives together until the end. So I was emotionally drained. It took me a couple of days to start reading another fanfic after that.
@@pksracing Exactly! "What the hell am I supposed to do ?"
i have the opposite lmao i get like a whole new lease on life
Once I finished reading a long page fanfic I wouldn't know what to do to myself I'm like now what
Same, it took me DAYS just to read again after that great fanfic that I finished.

1:30 basically me after reading tumoasd. Broke me heart, shattered my soul but is one of the best things I have ever read
Atleast it wasnt your first fic 😭 the first ever fanfiction ive read was FF1970 and im forever broken when reading fanfiction
it’s always the good ones that either take 256458753259789899999 years to update or the discontinued ones
*Once you get sucked into the world of fanfiction, you become a lot more braver in life*
Honestly tho. I only started getting into ff but I already feel more confident in myself. I don’t even know how to explain it lol
Never heard something truer.
LITERALLY I SAW THIS CUTE GUY AT MY SCHOOL SO I GOT HIS SNAP AND SAID “you fine asf ngl”
Ha. Good one.

At this point I am the librarian one… I’m even half tempted to have a physical book with personal summaries of specific key details just to remember everything right. That and I’m currently getting a friend into fanfic and I’ve realised how different our angst levels are
“Hey you should read this fic. Here’s the tags”
“Jazzbeee… one of these tags is ‘torture’”
“That’s fine it’s just torture”
“JUST TORTURE?!”
It took me a minute to find something to send to him to read 😂
I literally feel so empty when I finish a good longfic. Like, I have to follow it with oneshots because otherwise I’ll compare EVERYTHING about the next longfic to it.

Idk Men you have no idea, how many fanfics I came across and gave up on because of one thing the author did wrong bu in my mind.....ONE
Thats me 😤😤😤
Nearly all of those all me...apart from the vanilla
As an incredibly picky reader, my life is pain, and rarely do I find a fic to feed me sufficiently.
Same😔
I’m the binge reader TT it’s such a terrible life. A fic can distract me for maybe a week if it’s ridiculously long, and then I’m just left floating in a void, wishing I could reread it until I find the next one.
Mother: My child is alright
Me: Miss, your child is reading smut at breakfast next to you with a straight face like it's the morning paper. No, she is not fine.
"Is it possible to learn this power?"

Whats wrong with allitle smut to start your day?
Nothing to be ashamed of, reading smut 😊

Same I read Komahina one shots half the time 😂
Me
@GalaxyTubeStudios yes it’s from Dangonronpa
I have commitment issues too, and that's why I binge.
Can't have commitments issue when I'm moving too fast to stop.
WHY AM I ALMOST ALL OF THESE-
literally i am: has no fear, has no shame, the binge reader, gets super emotionally invested, is constantly reading, picky af, desperate, and will only read if it's smut/lemon
god i wish i was the fic librarian tho like fr

That feeling when you like a non-canon fanfic better than the actual canon show.
I'm going to be lynched by the internet for sharing this opinion because FMAB is anime royalty, but I actually liked the plotline of Reverti Ad Praeteritum by Batsutousai on AO3 better than the cannon plot.
Miraculous Fandom is exclusively that by now, coming from an insider.
@@ziimulhah3223 my guy yes ...
White Kitty, Amber Heart that’s a great example!
Walking away from a non-canon fic after I finish it, knowing that there will be no more. it's like someone died and I'm the only one going to the funeral and no one understands my devastation.
Yep. Totally the binge read. After i finish i am left empty until my next fix.
It also starts with being the picky, and slowly going to madness becoming the desperate.
I love the comments more than the fics help!!?.. y'all are so amazing i just love all the unity the humour and the way we all react at something there in the comments.. feels great man ❤️❤️❤️

i like how i stopped reading a fanfiction to watch this, stop calling me out
You are not alone-
Which type would you be? If you are willing to answer to answer.
Yo same dude, the irony hit me HARD
why stop reading when you can read and watch the video :)
Same
It's funny because Coley ain't acting
this is our reality
The only fanfics I like are the ones where they either make some side story that could exist in the original work and is faithful to the original characters and story. Or the ones where they change the main story (either partially or completely) but improve upon it and make it "better" to me.
The main example I actually have is "Supernatural" and "Teen Wolf" for both.
Except for seasons 12-15, I don't really like Supernatural fanfics that change what happened in the story. Like, ignoring the Destial and all the weird ships and stuff, I only really like the side stories that allow me to spend more time with some of my favourite characters that could exist.
As for Teen Wolf, again trying to ignore all the weird ships and stuff, I only really like the stories that basically rewrite the entire show. Because I always thought the original show was dragged down by lacklustre writing. It was really nice to see fanfics that basically addressed so many of the problems I had with the show and gave me an idea of the true potential the show had. Kinda sad to say it that way, but it's something I do enjoy.
I have the worst combination: "Picky af" and "Desperate"
Same??
Me too! It is a horrible combination

I’m only picky about certain things, if you’re writing style and grammar is really confusing for me, no matter how much I like the plot, I have to give it up
If you’re writing style captivated me and draws me in and I find it awesome, even if I’m not that invested in plot you’ll definitely still get praise
It’s important for grammar, I see things that are messed up that I learned in 7th grade English literature
Examples of some issues:
No paragraphs - like really, you should know better, it hurts my eyes to look at the wall of text in front of me
Repetitive words - please don’t say “said” every time a character says something, there’s less emotion, please try a thesaurus I’ve used one and it really helps when you’re stumped
Grammar and spelling - I know these are easy to mess up but if you’re unsure, have someone proofread to make sure your spelling, grammar, and punctuation are good and that it doesn’t hurt your brain to read, if you have nobody to proofread, get out a dictionary if you’re that worried, look some stuff up, read it yourself a few times and make sure that you like it
As someone who enjoys writing I hope I helped some people with this, if you actually read it anyway

Most of the things I read are 20k+ and my AO3 history is 310 pages 👀
Rebecca R I always thought 20k words was a pretty short story 😂 I’m so used to reading things close to or over 100k that I don’t even think about how regular books usually are about 20-30k words and I finish them within 2-3 hours if that.
Me: *read 100+ books every single day and every morning I continue to make my 400+ story books* Ok boomer
3 years later,and i still love this.
Picky is so me
This is my favorite channel!!!
Me reading smut: isn't affected
Me reading fluff: blushes, smiles and squeals while my heart is beating like it wants to pop out of my chest
Edit: Omg thanks for the likes
SAME-
Totally agree with you there
i need an explanaition why does that happen ? i thought i was the only one then i see the whole internet is like that
Same!!! ❤️
I know what Smut is, but what is fluff.
**When there isn’t a fic on a certain character**
“Fine, I’ll do it myself.”
Why is this me when I fall in love with an underrated character
Me me me me
you sir, are the best type of fanfiction reader.
I swear that IS THE ONLY reason I wrote my MHA girlfriends scenarios x fem reader. Also I just wanted to make LGBT content
if this ain't me-
“WOULDVE BEEN PERFECT WITHOUT THAT ONEE TAG” I relate to that a little too much..
im the one who has no shame. shamelessly reading smut in the middle of class and reading it out loud to my friends in the bus
(why do i feel like im almost every type)
Teacher: Do you read everyday?
Me: “n-no..” *continues to write 4000+ Smut chapters on Wattpad*
me
actually me

Yes please
Can we talk about the moment when your favorite Fanfic ENDS
that happened to me this morning
Yes
yes omg
Nooooooo!!!!!!
This comment is underrated
“Shameless” and “Picky AF”. I don’t care if I’m home, at work, or doing errands. If it’s one of my favorite fanfics, I’ll read it.
Im the vanilla reader, it makes me look at the characters differently if I read about them in that way.
That makes sense
Mom: Make sure to read lots of books to get smarter, and then you can get into a good college.
Me:
Also me: *She never said what type of books-*
M E
True true
B E A U T I F U L
Lmao yea XD
fr i totaled it up and i have read 1,800,000 words of fics which is like way more than the entire harry potter series so like basically im a scholar
me riding in a car with my family : *reading lemon with a straight face*
Oof that's me
BAHAHAH YEAH
That’s me, then my dad asks what I’m reading and my face becomes one of impending doom and all I can do is sheepishly say Jojo’s and hope he leaves me alone
@chloe nicole banga DON'T REACT AT LEMON AND JUST KEEP READING AND IMAGINE WHAT THE CHARACTERS ARE DOING W EACHOTHER THEN YOU'LL BE FINE
I was like that in high school, I would read it on our school Chromebooks. I'm surprised no one ever caught me.
The emotinally invested one was me when I read Flowers from 1970
OFC I DIDN'T CRY *stressed face*
