"calling out racism" quoting for truth
Glad you agree that denying the genocide is racist and offensive, and that people who do that should be called out for their racist behaviour, it's good that some coalies are willing to stand up to racist trolls who won't shut up or go away.

Added 1030 words, covered 1.5 plot points, I guess I should more or less consider this a success, but FFS will this fic ever stop getting longer?

This is also FS self-trolling. Why is she so desperate for attention:

Nothing in any of my fandoms and nothing looks good enough to read canon blind.

I wonder if it would feel weird picking up a pinch hit for a mod

I think it was a bad move on their part to provide potentially de-anoning details, but they didn't actually namedrop the fandom or whatever, or the OP of this thread wouldn't have had to ask which art it was, duh. De-anoning by incatiously revealing details to a bunch of overinvested drama queens with too much time on their hands is not the same thing as throwing their creator under the bus on purpose, and you are acting like it is.
As for their creator:
The art is more or less okay (some of the works are much better than others), but I think it was a massive mistake for the artist to give their recip 9k of it. Especially knowing the best they could do was fandom-blind. You do that as a PHer with mediocre-at-best skills who doesn't know the fandom, you know damn well you're setting up your recip for a potentially very disappointing experience.

Like, are you kidding me with this? I didn't notice this until the other coalie pointed out the thing about the art with the bookshelves but this is ridiculous. And it's tagged as Corinthian/Lucien, too.
This isn't an issue of art skill, it's biting off way more than you can chew and not giving a shit. I'm definitely DNMing the artist after, that's for sure. Not because I hate their art - I find some of it quite pleasant to look at - but because this is Pixels Georg level BS that feels frankly insulting as a request fill.

Sorry if I got a little heated. I was feeling much more benevolent towards the artist before I saw that comment in the Sandman art.
Why would you gift someone a work showing a thing you didn't draw because you can't draw it...

If all the art were like the half-body library scene (pretend one character is in the part obscured by shelves - lol!), it would be less acceptable.
Lmao.
Time to add "Tagged/requested character not being in the image" to my art DNWs, I guess.

how do you know? surely the kudos can't be that exact??

As the coalie a bit upthread hoping they were framed, I'm going to mildly disagree with you. The recipient wouldn't be the first to do this, but you do bear responsibility if you complain about your experience in a way that is identifiable on ffa, especially if you have been doing exchanges for years. You do not get to say "Oh, I had no idea nonnies would try to figure out which person this description applies to!" Complaining is not a right. Silence is free. Discretion is possible.

No, I don't think this is right. The pinch hit was first posted on September 18 and never had more than 1k claimed until the very end of the exchange. They added new fandoms on Nov 4 and it was finally claimed on the Nov 13 post. So the artist didn't leap on it at once - they claimed it after giving other exchange participants every possible opportunity to step up as well.
I'm not seeing "didn't give a shit and bit off more than they could chew" here. I'm seeing "talked themself into stepping up when no one else was stepping up and bit off more than they could chew."

I agree, I got nothing. This would be cute as an in-joke between friends and an extra bonus, but, uh, no, that is not a good fill. He's... lying down. If it wasn't described, I wouldn't even know he was in a library. I assume that the artist was running out of ideas, or thought they could do more with this than they did, or thought the humor of it would outweigh the obvious problem.

I'm someone who likes art where an intimacy is more implied than shown, I think it can be quite sexy that way - so I see how the premise could be tantalising, but also agree that it would have to be executed differently (showing slightly more of both characters, making it clearer that something sexual is most definitely going on) to really hit.
