Actually making your selfinsert overpowered and friends with all your faves and a hybrid of the coolest species and in a relationship with your crush and the long lost sibling of the villain is called having fun and its cool as fuck
thank you 😭
for REAL i had this old old gravity falls oc when i was like. maybe 10 or 11 and you can imagine who i made her related to and it Definitely Wasn't Bill Cipher(/s) and though I probably shouldnt have been on a platform like g+ at 10/11 it was right before that wave of people suddenly being mean about vibrant colors and overpowered characters and i had so much fun doing rps w/her. and despite my character being wack like that other ppl also have fun w/ it and (1/2)
@technonomz (2/2) -i just kinda learned after that, its VERY fun to just adapt to everyone's characters in front of u when in public rp places i.e. AJ or doing gay little rp games on roblox, feral heart, etc. like.. u have the most fun if u just let everyone into the rumble ring and see what happens. conclusion? ppl who yell negatively about "mary sues" *sprays u with a water bottle*
HELL YES THANK YOU
I’ve never had one original thought
no because it's so much fun making scenarios with really overpowered characters
my self-insert character as a kid was an inter-dimensional traveler. every time I finished a piece of media I would immediately imagine her fixing the story and making friends with my favorite characters.
I had one like that too, in fact I still have him. Planning to immortalize him in an actual book someday.
Same and now she's an npc in my dnd campaign!
Made mine in order to daydream, then I actually gave her lore and shit got lowkey interesting at some point. Like I do associate her with some bad memories now, but I'm considering re-exploring her because she holds a special place in my heart. She was the definition of an OP (technically self-insert?) OC who was extremely self-indulgent and shipped with all my favs, and I love her so much.
FR scrolling through the self insert oc tag on ao3 is so much fun bc you find the coolest takes and some pretty awesome meta gaming
B-but, ppl are gonna think I'm cringe... [sniffles in childhood issues]
“it’s bad storytelling” idgaf i’m doing this for nobody but me
not to mention even things considered "bad storytelling" can be made good if made a certain way people are too rigid to consider something new and interesting

Am I unoriginal or are we all just really cool because I’d love the ladder
@caligula9997 no <3
@novellas-den nah we're all just really cool
@vascularsystemofatree also “pro bi lesbian”
One Piece oc that's half-mink, half-Lunarian and learns Fishman Karate
DAMN RIGHT
Finally someone admitted the truth
some of the most memorable and fun fics i ever read heavily featured 'mary sue' and self insert characters and they were a blast
why thank you <3 (I'm writing 2 Zuko x OC stories their linked on my blog yknow if want >////,////<)
@ranty-ramblestein get OUT of my brain 💀
@lcn71 aw, claire 🥲
@ceeturnalia not gonna lie, i thought about you when writing this. :)
Self care is important and it's literally this
Thank you!
Thanks
I try not to make my character too overpowered but…. I have those god mode moments
But like also to warrior cat fans; I make my oc save Snowkit and kill the hawk (with help)
listen i know it's cringe but it helps me ok??? pls it's the only thing keeping me sane😭
It's mostly only cringe bc of the patriarchy dw about it
Buckaroo Banzai is a mary sue and look at what a great movie that is
Right?? Like people used to get so pissy when someone made an alicorn ponysona. Most of these people were kids! That's ridiculous
well thanks i am slowly trying OC x cannon charaters but not in romantic fashion or sexual just like familiar platonic and like just generally there and the stories that I write
As long as they don't tag fics as x reader when it's an oc
All I want is to be loved by someone I love and I love a fictional character let me sit and fester with my issues and love them and fantasize in peace
thank you i am always having a good time😌👆
Me fr
I was summoned!
FINALLY
Srsly tho whenever I read or play something, I always imagine what I would do if I were in the story. Then I found out about self insert oc’s and created my own.
This just made my day even better because I ship one of my Wild Kratts villain ocs with Rex(cannon character)
LITERALLY FRRR
