I keep seeing this story when I look for Hercules fanfic, and it sounds interesting, but every link I find for it is broken.
I think it’s a oneshot since it didn’t have a chapter number on the google search, and deals with the Nessus scene. It was on a fake fanfic.net site.
So, as a part of my final for my British literature class, we had to do a researched analysis paper over two of the books we read in class. I chose to do my paper over the female monsters in Dracula and Coraline. in the last paragraph of my paper, I wanted to mention some recent examples of female monster stories, but all I could really think of was the movie barbarian (which I know is a very complex example, but based off the definition of monster, she had us using class, it fit).
So, I want to broaden my knowledge on the topic. I really enjoyed writing that research paper, so I would love to continue my research.
So, I saw a production of Heather’s at a local theater, and why I like a show over all, I did have some thoughts:
Positives:
- I’m going to start with the two biggest highlights: JD and Chandler. Chandler’s actress had a wonderful voice, and she did something interesting which is bringing a slight immaturity to some moments. I liked that because I thought it added in another element of tragedy just showing how young Chandler was when she died. The JD was probably the most scared I’ve been of a JD since Slater (after seeing clips and the proshot), but he also did a good job tricking the audience, like he was very charismatic.
- the cast overall was good. The girl who played Veronica had a lovely voice. Martha’s actress was also great. She did this impressive thing in shine a light where her voice sounded completely happy, but you could just see the devastation on her face. As an actress, that is a very hard thing to pull off.
- the live band was great.
- at the end of dead gay son, one of the dad’s did the elphaba riff, which I thought was a fun inclusion. Got the audience hyped.
- the set design and costumes were good. The show was technically amazing.
Some of the negatives:
- some of the group numbers lacked energy. Not in an acting choice way.
- a lot of my issues were script wise. I didn’t like a few of the lyric changes, specifically in me inside of me. Now there were some lyric changes I did like, like I like the new lyrics and dead, gay son and I am damaged.
- there were a few microphone issues. I couldn’t hear a few ensemble solos.
Overall a 3.5 to 4 out of 5.

I rarely get super scared by horror films, so I responded my treat when I find one I can freak me out.
Probably the last two that freaked me out were evil dead, rise, and primate. Primate had a slight advantage since I already went in with a fear of chimpanzees (thank you Jordan peele and the deep dive that movie sent me on). Rise was the last time I was watching a movie at home and was freaked out
We haven’t done this in a while, so let’s do it
In the comments, describe your fanfiction poorly and allow others to try and glue together what the plot of the fanfiction actually is or what the fandom is
It was about this boy and this girl who are friends. They both get abducted by separate aliens who are at war with each other. They chose to abduct them based off their knowledge of science fiction, movies, having checked the rental history at a local video shop. I’m pretty sure the boy likes science fiction movies, but the girls is more knowledgeable, but it said that he had rented more videos than her because she lost her account card.
I remember the war wasn’t really violent, it was going to be decided by a race or something like that. I think the novel ends with the boy and the girl getting together.
Scream is my answer for favorite until we get the Rocky horror kill count (or if somehow my favorite movie of all time gets on the kill count, which are highly doubt it will because I cannot see a strong enough argument for it being horror, which is Heathers). And of course, has been covered by Deadmeat twice on the kill count.
And girls with balls is easily, my least favorite movie that dead meat has ever recovered (which was covered on a commentary track). It’s one of 14 movies I gave half a star letter box (I have 800+ films marked as watch on my letterboxd). If you want a version of this plot done good, Maddie Ziegler‘s new movie pretty lethal is basically the same thing, but with ballerinas and likable performances.
Rules are simple:
Leave a brief summary of your fic or ship. You can include the fandom or you can choose not to.
Respond to other people’s comments with songs that their summaries remind you of.
Added context: it was also omegaverse
This happened like two years ago, but the second anniversary is coming up, so I figured I would share the story again.
So, back in 2024, I got really involved in the ghostbusters fandom. It’s a relatively small fandom on the websites I am on, but there’s a few of us still dedicated. Due to the new movie that came out, there was a surge of fanfics, and I became an avid reader of this one person, let’s call them “S.” S and I had a few interactions, but nothing outside of the comments of fanfiction. I had even, with their permission, written some stories inspired by their work.
Well, sometime passed, and I got a discord dm. I’m in a general fanfic discord, and this person had seen me plug some of my fanfics and recognized my username. They said their friend had introduced them to my work, and it turns out said friend was S. They gave me S’s discord handle.
S and I ended up messaging for hours that night. We became good friends not long after, messaging all that summer. We talk like everyday now.
I know S doesn’t have Reddit, but if somehow you see this: I love you.
