I've heard Wattpad has been rolling out some AI-driven moderation that has been, unsurprisingly, really cracking down on certain kinds of fics, particularly mature ones, which is to be expected since there actually are pretty stringent rules around mature content that a lot of people just sorta ignore and hope they get away with posting whatever they wanna post. I can't criticize it, I do it too. SO I'm just saying that some of my works might end up getting hit, and if they do, I will not re-upload anything here. This is just a PSA to come find me on AO3 if anything goes missing, literally everything I have here is on my AO3, which is linked on my user page. You don't need an account to see any of my works over there, I keep it all public and you can even leave guest comments.
          	
          	AO3 is a wonderful alternative in general, it has a MUCH more robust tagging system, which means you can more easily SEARCH for certain things you want to read, narrowing down into particular fandoms, ships, tags, etc. And you can post any kind of fic you want there, including original fic! There's very few rules. So you know. I actually do have invites still, you can shoot me a DM if you want one, otherwise you can just enter the invite queue and get one emailed to you in a few days. I can highly recommend it as a site, it's so good.
          	
          	Tl;dr Wattpad's purging fics, mine might get hit, if anything does don't ask me to put it back up, go find it on my AO3 which is the same username as here. Also if you're against censorship of fic and want a place where you can post your works freely, AO3 is a great alternative. That's all, have a good day.

@iCloud-64bit I know you might be joking but for anyone who sees this and genuinely doesn't know, it's Archive of our Own, a non-profit fanfiction website that arose from other sites regularly purging NSFW and otherwise 'inappropriate' (aka queer, because THINK OF THE CHILDREN AND ADVERTISERS) fics. So a bunch of fans were like "well fine, then we'll make an archive of our own to post things to and no one will be able to take it down because WE own the servers" and voila, AO3 came into existence. I highly recommend it compared to here, way more options for searching things, you can post a much wider variety of content, doesn't matter how dark or sexual you go, as long as it doesn't violate U.S. law it's allowed on there. Unlike here, where at any moment one of my smut fics could get obliterated. So yea, AO3 rocks, everyone who likes fanfiction should have an account there, the end

i know, it was like 2am. so i most likely overreacted.
            but no tags or warnings. thats why im annoyed.
            nowhere (i quadruple checked) does it say HE is trans. i have no problems with the LGBTQ+ community (i am  part of it so that would be wrong)
            just the missing tags. 
            porn without plot? no tag for that. trans grian? no tag. who its shipped with? no tag. what kind of sex it is? no tags! any info on what hc season? no tag! grian has wings? NO. TAG!! like what the fuck. no warnings. bitch wrote that to m*sturbate
            6 problems. no, 7.
            
            faith in humanity? 0
            
            PEACE-

@iCloud-64bit I mean. People can write whatever they wanna write and usually they do use trans tags if applicable but if not you can just close it and move on if it's not your thing. The only tags AO3 REQUIRES on anything is like. The fandom and any relevant archive warnings (the big ones like whether there's underage, noncon, etc). Anything else people list is a courtesy. AO3 operates on old school fandom rules of don't like; don't read so. yea if you click something and it grosses you out, just gotta accept that that particular story wasn't written for you and move on to the next thing. AO3 lets you mute authors though so if you keep coming across someone writing stuff you really don't like, you can mute them and keep their works from showing up anymore.

@iCloud-64bit nice! Hope you enjoy it once you get in, it takes a lil getting used to but there's a really good FAQ, it should explain things pretty well. And if you upload something, there's lil question mark icons next to pretty much every box you have to fill out, explaining what you should put there. So don't be afraid to click around and read everything.

so basically, you would ship Xisuma with like, grian for example (he came to mind first). without a care?  daym, well i mean in the democracy-ish of a country i live in, i could do that? (Britan) (no laws against it so lol *dirty mind activated*
          "Hey Xisuma go fuck grian-"

@MicaQuiroga324 Not much unfortunately, my native language is English and while I did take Spanish in high school, that was well. Over ten years ago now so I don't remember much of it. I only know very basic Spanish. I've always wanted to get better at it but just haven't had much opportunity to practice.

Writing a sequel to His Beloved Warden, the first couple chapters are on AO3 and I don't know when I'll share it here, as I don't really like Wattpad's lack of a series feature like AO3 has, but I might post it at some point. For now, if anyone wants to follow along, here ya go https://archiveofourown.org/works/47632399/chapters/120056026 It'll be rated explicit as well

To anyone who might be looking at this in the future, the sequel is being posted here now too. Boop https://www.wattpad.com/story/351162777-awesamdream-after-ever-after-fic-2
