PSA

After a miserable few days, which always happens when I get anons that share a facecast or facecasts with me, I'll no longer be responding to any anon facecasts because it's not really about me and there's no real safe way to respond for me and there never has been.

I love when y'all facecast characters and enjoy doing that, it's a type of fandom engagement I hate doing personally and I don't enjoy being asked to engage with, and have said increasingly over the years, but I will always 100% support you doing it for yourself, and think it's great that others get enjoyment out of this.

But I don't. And I'm no longer going to host that part of fandom here.

I've deleted all previous ask responses on facecasting and am going to leave this one up in the tags as my reference in the future.

Just don’t expect me to be the arbiter of it, since I don’t think about characters this way and I’m often trying to write against popular actors and their appearances. This is also why I’m specific about it being anon facecasts! I have no problems talking to people about it privately, though it’s still not something I personally do.
  2. not-poignant said: @not-kaiva when someone casts real life celebrities/models/actors etc. to take the place of characters. In best case scenarios it’s utterly harmless. In worst case scenarios anons bring me their thoughts, expect me to agree with them, and expect me to disagree with everyone else in the same breath lmao. The drama has been incredible.
  3. not-kaiva said: I’ll google it later but just in case someone has the answer locked and loaded: what on earth is a facecast????
