  • skimparker: AO3 is beautiful
  • fangirl-screaming: “WAILING” FUCKING KILLED ME BAHAHAHAHAHA
  • palenoface:I’M SORRY THERE IS BIBLE FANFICS?
  • anonym-potato:So, here’s a fun thought experiment. By my count, works from 84 different fandoms are included in this video, if you merge those that feel like they’d naturally go together or are part of one larger fandom (for example, putting ‘Supergirl (2015)’ and ‘Legends of Tomorrow’ together under ‘Arrowverse’) I’ve been involved in 11 of those fandoms. How about you?
  • ghostglaceon: I love this, but shout out to the person that said "when I hear songs they sound like a swan" A SWAN, IM SORRY??? it's when I hear songs they sound like 'this one' oh my god did someone seriously name their fanfic after that? IT BETTER HAVE SWANS
  • i-remember-manual-typewriters: Some people are able to bend the space/time continuum and have enough time to create these and I applaud them for it!
  • mctreeleth: The first couple of works that were published in 2012 I was like “wow, what a crazy coincidence that they used the same configuation of words” and then they just kept coming and I was forced to google it and discover that Some Nights by FUN is 9 years old this year.
  • winterhopeinferorose: Some night I spend to much time on tumblr!
  • lahrateigh: Oh wow! That's so cool. And awesome, one of my FICS are on there! 😍
  • the-unnecessary-commentary: The split cut to six extra fics titled "I found a martyr in my bed tonight" just fucking broke me
  • crewdlydrawn: This is absolutely brilliant not only for paying homage to the time-honored tradition of titling fics after song lyrics (or strangely), but for the ways in which it USES those, and the filler words, comedically. Just 👏👏
  • brittbax: Thus is the first time I've learned the correct lyrics to this song
  • theflashisgone: This actually functions moderately well as a lyric video.
  • rubixpsyche: I was waiting for a Transformers one and we got "Mhmm~"
  • theoriginaljordge: I want every lyric video to look like this now
  • constellrose: "I Sold My Soul For This?" Christian Bible - Fandom
  • morethanthedark: HOLY SHIT IM IN THIS
  • smiilleery: and this is why fanfics and other fan creations are just great!
  • zom-zom: Is no one going to mention the Harry Potter/gossip girl piece?
  • bitchofdarkness: Okay, but this is really cool promo for those fics??
  • lildevyl:I don't know if I reblog this or not but if I did, I'm reblogging it again! I can't imagine how long it took to edit this!
  • sbooksbowm: this is a transformative work in and of itself
  • murple: I love “outro” and “fade out”. also “nephew not son”
  • fallenstarworkshop: Damn it this makes me want to write fanfiction
  • apiratewannabe: BASEBALL RPF????
  • thefirsthogokage: Someone should do a lyric video for Carry On My Wayward Son using only Supernatural titles. I know it's 100% possible because of another post floating around here.
  • legendofthehiddenbbc: "But here they come again to jack my style" as baseball RPF is definitely something I am fascinated to investigate. and will probably be upset by
  • annoyed-galaxy: WHY SO MANY MARTYRS IN THE BED???
  • prismacolor19: This is wonderful! Amazing job! 🤯👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. I stay up late reading fanfics too! One time I stayed up until 7:30am reading and didn’t even realize the time until I saw sunlight coming through my bedroom window and looked at the time on my phone!
