That moment when you can tell exactly which of your AO3 commenters are Tumblr Beans and which aren’t, based on whether they wrote “BERLIIIIN!!!!!” or “Berlin?”

The tally is now 5 to 2, and it’s cracking me up so much…

Though I suppose I should say “vintage tumblr beans” since the newer ones weren’t around for the mayhem that was the tinhatting of the STID press tour.  We may need @semperama or @suedescripture or @rabidchild67 to host a masterclass…

@wolfi-sama AO3 just ate my reply to your wonderful comment not once but TWICE!  I was going to get all caught up on replies and post a new chapter but wtf is going on with AO3?

I just tried again, @wolfi-sama , and it failed again…so here’s your reply.  I’m not trusting AO3 atm:

You were not late at all…someone was encouraging on tumblr Friday night and I got excited and posted a new chapter.  You were on time…it was early.

– I should just write “tag yourself” in all my endnotes and see what happens…I bet it would be hilarious

– I’m glad you enjoyed their discussion about their craft, it was fun to write, even though I know next to nothing about acting.

– Not only does Zach know that Chris likes to laugh, he’s actually very good at making Chris laugh.  That bears some thought…

– Don’t even get me started with Adam.  What a douche he turned out to be.

– I fully support you hugging them both, but I must warn you that Zach has a jealous streak that is apparent here and there…

I love you comments, messy or not.  Thanks so much for reading!

D: D: what the hell, ao3

I did check in to see whether there’s a reply in my inbox but I figured you might be busy hhh

 thank you for this post ❤

– ..uuuuugh I remember the interviews they did together and how often he made Chris laugh.. I’m hurting

– then I sure hope Zach tries to keep it together and not let it get worse than “apparent here and there” 😐 

I’m really enjoying it and thank you for your replies ❤

Oh, Zach isn’t too overboard with the jealousy. He’s just not sure he approves of a certain sheer white sweater that Pie’s taken to wearing on planes, or how it makes people stare. Or hug him…

Traveling today, but I’ll try to post the next chapter tonight, assuming AO3 is done reworking their servers.

Thanks so much for reading and commenting!

Because there’s no backspace in real life…

One bad decision can put a friendship in a tailspin. But maybe that’s okay if it means you finally start really talking (texting). About the past… and about the future.

Happy Pinto de Mayo, Beans!

…that’s not chris’s hand feeding him, though, or is it?

I do not know–perhaps other beans can weigh in–but I’ma assume so until someone says differently

That was definitely my impression when I reblogged it back in 2015, but  I was but a mere wee innocent back then, with only a toe in this rabbit hole.  I may have been wrong.

Also, is he actually taking a bite of murder cupcake? because that would be a little meta

I’m looking at the calendar…

And noticing a certain fandom holiday is fast approaching…  are we doing anything for it this year?  And I’ve been a bad Bean, off in other fandoms much of the year…but we come home for the holidays, am I right?

Asking fellow Beans @entrenous88, @elisa-pie, @hopeforyouyet, @loves-pie, @psychoticpterodactyl16, @rabidchild67, @semperama, @seepunkrun, @suedescripture, @trekbedtimestories, @unculturedmamoswine, @wolfi-sama, and anyone else who wants to chime in.
