.·:*¨¨*:·. SLASHERS REACTIONS TO THEIR FANDOMS !
✧ SYNOPSIS . . . how different slashers react to their fandoms [requested but I accidentally posted it oopss]
✧ FEATURING . . . patrick bateman, vincent sinclair, bo sinclair, billy loomis, billy lenz, stu macher, brahms heelshire
⤷ patrick bateman
okay this is going to be fun
his (already huge) ego gets boosted sm by the like “sigma” edits and shit of him
not to be cliche but the “I bet paul allen doesn’t ____” sort of comments make him feel so high and mighty
and seeing how many people find him hot? god he would become even more insufferable
BUT HERES THE FUN PART
he delves more into the patrick bateman edits and stuff and that’s when he finds the satirical shipping, cutesy edits, etc
he sees himself and the word “babygirl” put together and has a full blown meltdown
god I’d be so funny cause it’s literally 50/50 in the fandom so he couldn’t separate one from another if he even tried
AND THE SHIPS
oh, he would just be gagging at the louis x himself ships
idk I feel like he would go “take this down now 🤬”
he’s so edgy 12 year old boy yk
AND THE EDITS
patrick practically passing out when he seems himself edits with anime blush and cat ears
his masculinity was already bruised by the ships and now this?
he 100% posts some of the edits about him on his socials
he also sends the links to these vids to people he dislikes to prove his “fame”
the fame goes to his head but he gets humbled when he sees everyone calling him “my pathetic malewife bbg ❤️”
⤷ vincent sinclair
I just love vincent sm and so does his fandom
I have not once met someone who hates vincent
he is so insecure and humble and just deserves to see everyone complimenting him and his wax figures
he loves his fandom to say the least
and they absolutely adore him trust
definitely gets confused by some of the compliments he gets
example a: “If he doesn't want me to slut him out, why waist so slutty?”
^^ yes I did find that on here
is in disbelief ppl can find him attractive let alone say things sexual about him
he has rlly rlly low self esteem okay
if he ever tried to interact with his fandom online I have two different directions in my head
IS AWFUL ON THE PHONE
typos and everything
but it’s so sweet
“THank yu 🙂”
he has big fingers and struggles to type ^^
or if he gets adjusted it’s perfect grammar
“I appreciate you for this. Thank you so much.”
hes just a big ol boy getting the praise he deserves
⤷ bo sinclair
this one is a bit tricky
he isn't too phased by the compliments unlike his brother
he knows he hot
so “daddy” “so hot” compliments r not new to him
BUT I think stuff like “I want to see him whimper” will make him feel VERY FLUSTERED
but he doesn't get a bigger boost in his ego
I feel like it doesn't go to his head cause he is already pretty confident in his looks yk
but seeing people appreciate him for his personality?
it definitely gives him more hope that he's worth more than his looks
this one is short but he wouldn't interact with the fandom
like he seems so Facebook dad to me
basically he is tolerates his fandoms
it's nothing special
⤷ billy loomis
ANOTHER TRICKY ONE
billy is so tricky for me tho
honestly it goes to his head
seeing ppl in awe about him ^^
he’s a slasher fan too so he is more active in other fandoms if that makes sense
but does like to delve into theories and discussions about ghostface and the scream franchise with members of his fandom
rlly enjoys knowing he is considered one of the “well known” slashers
honestly he feels threatened by danny johnny from DBD because when u search ghost face a lot of content surrounding him pops up a long with stu and billy
he loves the fame basically
I do get the feeling he hates the image ghostface has tho
like the “thirst traps”
he's just the type of guy who calls people “posers” and “fake fans”
so that rlly irritates him
if you know a lot about slashers/ghost face he's chill
he likes his fandom but there’s definitely outliers with the people who know ghostface but not who’s behind the mask
he wants the notary
⤷ stu macher
LOVES HIS FANDOM
he loves being worshipped by his fandom
all compliments, all fanart, all of it he loves
teases Billy sometimes about the posts
sends scream memes to his friends
feels guilty tho when he sees vids and his and Tatum’s relationship
like that’s the only downside for him
he responds to fans, tells “insider” stuff, etc
Stu is very active in his fandom
he thrives off of it essentially
definitely set up a cameo or something at one point and says his iconic lines from the movie
+ try’s to get fan service out of Billy
hes like an obnoxious youtuber
REPOSTS EVERYTHING
edits? yes
fanart? yes
fanfic…?
yes.
he’s not rlly sad either that billy gets more attention than him cs if you love stu you LOVE stu
calls his fandom “machiacs”
cause macher + maniac
but he does think he’s more famous than he actually is
like if someone doesn’t recognize him he’ll go “I’m THE stu macher”
fanservice king!!!
⤷ billy lenz
no shame at all
he will repost smut/hentai of him
loves his fandom cause they’re as equally as horny as he is
but I think he does see that he is desirable in more ways when he finds like fluff imagines
loves his fanart the most
he would try and redraw the fanarts but they turn out horribly
he 100% try’s to interact with his fandom
key word is try
he doesn’t type but does the voice to text thing
so all his replies and post end up
JEJSNSBSHSISJJSNS *insert heavy breathing* HSHDNDJSJSK
his poor phone can’t keep up :(
he doesn’t understand the fandom but he loves them
“billy boy my beloved ❤️”
^^ those are his favorite types of fandom interactions
⤷ brahms heelshire
refuses to have internet
straight up refuses
but I feel like he's the only one who would dislike his fandom
and j mean actively dislike
if he saw how many people call him “stinky wall boy”
Let's just say he would have a fit
only thing he would like is people saying he's better than other male characters
but literally that's it
hates everyone and everything about his fandlm
he thinks of them as lowly or without class
its just best if he never finds out about his fandom
✎ notes . . . I rlly js wanted to do patrick but I actually had a lot of fun doing the others!!
I blame @adoredmarigold for this so

Read this post as well: https://www.tumblr.com/taikeero-lecoredier/702208764745515008/urgent-congress-trying-to-pass-anti-lgbt-bill Calling, sending emails, and faxing senators are important. I would also encourage anyone to make art or memes against the bill to spread the news further.
Please, please call the following senators and tell them to oppose KOSA, you have a call script right here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IyBUe6frFGF44rJQU3TahZ5zyG3tC7jai_hPneAKlnM/edit#bookmark=id.lzykeihiqg70 Maria Cantwell: ( 202) 224-3441 Pelosi : (202) 225-4965 Schumer : (202)2246542
I really hate to do this, but KOSA, the bill that is a mass censorship and surveillance bill that will specifically censor all LGBT content online to "protect kids", is back.
KOSA advocates have brought in support from Elon Musk (I wish I was making this up) and are trying to get him to get Donald Trump to speak out in support of it. (And they lie and tell us it's not an anti-queer bill 🙄). The reason so is because the holdouts that are stopping this from passing are...republicans. It's GOP House leaders Steve Scalise and Mike Johnson. If they succeed and put this in an end of year spending bill, it will be near impossible to get it out and it will most likely be passed. Pro-KOSA advocates were on the hill today pushing hard to pass it. They have a lot of support behind them. There is only two weeks left in congress, so if they don't succeed, it's over.
The ONLY way this bill has stalled so much so far is because of calls driven to congress. It has worked and can still work. Please, spread this as much as you can and call House leadership and spread the word! You don't have to be from their district. You can pretend to be GOP. It doesn't matter, just call and voice your opposition. Trump and Musk clearly have a lot of sway over these people and I'm really scared they will succeed at the last minute!!
Here are their numbers: Scalise: 202-225-3015 Johnson: 202-225-2777
If you don't know what to say, use either call script! It takes less than a minute, I swear.

So tonight i played borderlands 1 remaster past midnight, checked socials and... kosa has passed its senate committee vote with 86-1. Yes committee, not a full senate vote despite what i was lead to believe from the words of others. Apologies for that. So despite this news, there is still time to stop this, we just need to work hard to resist it.
The bill has not reached the finish line, it only a passed a checkpoint. We can still turn it around.
I'll see you all tomorrow..
I'm really happy there's so much positivity with the Harris-Walz campaign and yes people should be feeling a bit more relieved! But I'm concerned with the recent surge in support for Harris across the battleground states that people are now getting way too relaxed. I really don't want to sound negative here at all because this IS good news! But these polls are really not enough right now. They look better than before for sure but this is sadly still a TIGHT race. I know that sounds unbelievable given the circumstances but we got to take this seriously and get out and vote. Those few point differences Harris has in battleground states will ONLY matter if we vote. The battle has only just begun so don't go acting like we've already won the war.
