HE'S ALIVE!
I got a weird 'hi' message earlier on fanfiction.net and, out of morbid curiosity, I sent them a kind of joke-y reply. I write mainly for Hook/Emma on Once Upon a Time and, while I've written smut before, it certainly didn't involve incest or teenagers or any of that. The username and blank page and everything else sent alarm bells - as did the fact that a few other people I know who write for the same pairing apparently got the same message - but I figure if it's a spambot I can just block them and move on if they start sending links. They asked if I took requests, I said I could try one, and they asked for 'nc-17 david/emma'. For people unfamilar with OUAT - they're father and daughter. So, basically, the only thing new about this is that it doesn't involve an underaged boy.
I basically said no, he did the 'thanks for saying yes' bit, and I blocked before it really continued. I looked him up on Google out of curiousity and, sure enough...I find all this. 20 years is a little long to send gross prompts, to me. I did a little asking around and apparently he's been harassing authors personally in this fandom over the past year, which seems to be kind of new instead of the ol' "you ruined my week". He's sent out that 'hi' to a bunch of authors for this pairing tonight, but I haven't seen anyone else replying yet. Apparently, Jeremy is still active in 2016. You would think people would get tired after two decades of trolling. I figured I'd update all the Jeremy trackers?
Here was my conversation with him under the cut:
jeremy.crawford27: hi
me: so tell me what u want what u really really want
jeremy.crawford27: do you write request for fanfiction.
me: if you give me a prompt i can give it a try. no guarantees, but i'll give you my best shot.
jeremy.crawford27: nc-17 fic emma/david.
me: let me get this straight - you want me to write fic between a father and his daughter? having graphic sex?
jeremy.crawford27: yeah
me: yeah, i'm going to go with...f*** no. this message was weird as f*** from straight to finish, now i'm going to have to scrub that thought from my entire brain for the rest of the night. jesus f*** christ.
jeremy.crawford27: thanks for saying yes
me: i'm blocking you and advising everyone to do the same, pal. stay creepy!
jeremycrawford27: so when can you do the fic.
