#they got you the original and you are still like this

So I want to write some one-shots and shorter stories to regain my writing momentum. As of right now I have two concepts brewing. One is my H6 vignette story, and the other is just my intense urge to see a Pinhead/OFC fic set in the Dead by Daylight universe (there are like…two good ones, one of which may not even end up being the end game ship).

Mainly I want to do that last one because I’m…very disappoint at DbD fandom for at first not getting him, misinterpreting his character based on net zero information gathering, and then overall dismissing him as boring (because I guess half of them couldn’t be bothered to watch the movies and therefore they have no context at all to actually find interesting).

I’m discovering that lore may for some reason be irrelevant to DbD fandom…despite kind of having a cool concept to build on.

It’s funny because like, this is a MASSIVE Monster Boyfriend fandom. But many of the male monsters that people crush on in DbD feel totally emotionally impenetrable, mainly because most were pretty monstrous as human beings, so what fanfic exists definitely takes a lot of creative license in order to make that even plausible. That’s all well and good…

…and yet, here he is, finally. A monster who was a man so sad and tragic and kinky that he died, and then the eldritch god of desire made him the monster priest of the extremes of sensation, but! also! he is still sad deep down inside, and will lay his life down to save the good girl if she bats her eyelashes right, because some buried part of him is still gallant and a hopeless romantic. DbD gave them like…THE monster boyfriend, and DbD fandom was like like…“oh him? who? that guy? I don’t know him but he’s bald and looks boring. Oh but remember the "he came” memes? ~lol~.“

DbD fandom WHAT ARE YOU DOING. Ya’ll, they’re just asleep. They snoozed right through this. They were like "give me more Ghostface. We need more stabby shitheads pls ~uwu~ ”
