TW Fanfiction Contest: The Whys and Werefores
Me: people are like — ”This fanfiction contest could be a great opportunity to promote Sterek!”
Me: as if it’s some kind of happy coincidence
Me: as if Sterek is a side issue, unconnected to MTV’s main agenda
Me: what if it’s not?

Me: remember how Jeff Davis can’t legally read fanfic?
Me: remember all [x] those [x] posts [x] we made
Me: about how slash fandom is a community of queers, by queers, for queers?
Me: and the fanfiction we write reflects our own queer experiences?
Me: JEFF DAVIS HAS READ THESE POSTS

Me: I’m pretty sure
Me: THE ENTIRE REASON THIS FANFICTION CONTEST EXISTS
Me: IS SO JEFF DAVIS CAN READ STEREK FANFIC
Ladyw1nter: ……..
Me: AND SEE FIRST HAND WHAT THE HELL WE WERE TALKING ABOUT 
Ladyw1nter: ……………….
Me: WITHOUT LEGAL HICCOUGHS

Ladyw1nter: wowwwwwww
Me: yeah
Ladyw1nter: #DYING
Me: I’m a genius
Ladyw1nter: YOU ARE
Ladyw1nter: YOU ARE A GENIUS


Seriously, though.

And I am being completely serious here.

The fans who want Sterek? The fans who read/write/gif/draw/meta Sterek? Are the same fans who steamrolled the TCA’s. We are the same fans who bought DVD’s and shared them with our friends. We are the same fans who went to ridiculous lengths to grow Teen Wolf’s fanbase. We are the same fans that got Teen Wolf a 24 episode 3rd season.

MTV wants to understand this part of their fan base better. MTV wants to know what all the fuss is about. MTV, officially, isn’t *allowed* to know what all the fuss is about because fanfiction exists in a legal gray area.

This contest is a small white worksafe file cabinet in a veritable IRS archive worth of knotting porn gray area.

MTV is not doing Sterek fans a favor by creating this contest. Sterek fans are doing MTV a favor by participating in this contest.



In conclusion: GO FORTH. AND STEREK.
