12+ Violence

Jason doesn’t like the fandom either

*This fanfic is underneath my folder titled “Creepypasta stuff”. Character designs are underneath this forum: https://www.youngwriterssociety.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=116005&start=1065. The characters mentioned in this are Creepypasta characters, created by different people. You can Google them if you want. Creepypasta is internet horror, anything from a scary story to a spooky video. The character speaking is Jason the Toymaker, a Creepypasta created by Krisantyl. His husband is Laughing Jack, created by Snuffbomb. Yes, this is also a ship story. These are my interpretations of them. For example, Jason writes something in Italian, because I believe that his original story was posted in Italian and then translated to English, so I also made him Italian. :> LJ is British because his origin story takes place in London. Anyway, I hope you enjoy!*

Good morning, humans. I have been informed by my husband that society has shifted from complaining on the television to complaining on computers. Jack has told me that he has complained on YouTube before and that a strange amount of humans had left a “like” for them, I shall now express my own vexations.

One thing that has greatly displeased me is the fact that I have taken so much time and care into killing people and trapping their souls forevermore into wax dolls, so much time in maintaining my toy shop, and yet, I am still not known to many. If one were to think “Jason” and “horror” they would think of “Jason Voorhees from the thirteen movies” and not “Jason Meyer, the Victorian toymaker”. I find it a bit irritating that people will overlook my story or say that I’m just like my husband.

Well, yes and no. We are alike in the sense that we both kill children and are much older than a lot of the more popular characters (a concerning amount of them are teenagers and children), but that is where the similarities end. Jack is a magical clown entity who has never aged physically the way humans do. In that sense, he doesn’t have a “real” age, but he counts because he wants to. I am a former human made cryptid at the age of twenty-seven, so I have stayed that way on the outside. Jack was sent from Heaven to this world in the year 1800, as he used to be a guardian angel. I was born in 1906. Please do not compare us, for we have our own personalities and our own experiences that make us unique.

But another thing that never gives me any peace is the fact that Jeffery Allan Woods is more popular than I! How is it so that the teenage boy with anger issues in the bloodstained hoodie with the ever-so-awful catchphrase “Go to sleep” is more loved and respected than ME, a 119 year old man who CARES about the CRAFT?

Goodness, I have realized at this moment that I have made a terrible mistake. Jeffery is not a teenager, but a thirty-five year old man. Well! He still dresses and acts like a teenager, unfortunately.

Yet I still have one more thing that vexes me! Can you believe it, how the internet can even torment the mind of a man older than the Grandparents and dare I say, Great-Grandparents, of most! If you told me in 1933 that I would be paired romantically with somebody called Nathan the NOBODY, I would have scoffed in your face and called you “Fuori di testa”, because why would I ever want to be with someone who is a nobody?! I have searched up this “Nathan the nobody” on the internet and goodness, there isn’t a more fitting name for somebody who presents himself like Nathan does.

I would like to add that while I look like I’m in my twenties, I’m not. I do not wish to be paired with a twenty-something year old like Nathan. Nathan is ignorant and foolish, just like Jeffery, just like most of these so-called “Creepypastas”.

But! I was also romantically paired with Candy Pop the jester and I must ask…why?! I only ever worked with him once in my life and he is…he’s far too colorful and loud for my liking. He’s very bothersome, too. He doesn’t know what personal space is and he’s full of so much “positivity” and “joy” that it sickens me greatly. If he were ever to show romantic feelings towards me, I think I would pull out my own music box heart.

There is what one would call a silver lining to all of this, I suppose. I do get romantically paired with Jack in stories and art. I greatly appreciate it, but some of the things written about us by teenagers online are…questionable, to say the least. I won’t get into that now because that’s something else entirely to unpack and I’m getting tired of typing on this computer.

Thank you very much for reading, I feel slightly less burdened by my own existence. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to build five hundred music boxes and then I will wind them up all at once to drown out the voices in my head and then, I shall be one-hundred percent calm.

hello creeper!

This is fun! I think the strongest part is how clearly the character’s voice comes through - he's dramatic, old-fashioned, offended, and weirdly formal in a way that makes the complaints funnier coming from him. The idea of a spooky Victorian toymaker using the internet to complain about horror character popularity is a great setup, and I like how the letter treats online fandom as something almost supernatural in itself. I've never been deep into a fandom like that, but I can see his points. His discomfort with / dislike of internet culture gives the monologue a lot of personality, especially since he's being a bit hypocritical.

I also think the details help make the character feel specific. I am not familiar with who he is, but I like how I can get a picture of him in my head -> the wax dolls, music boxes, toy shop, music box heart, his irritation, etc. That is important because the story is partly about him not wanting to be compared to other characters, so giving him his own habits and history supports the point well. I'd have to check out more about Jason though!

However, I do think some parts could be shortened a little. The explanations about Jack, Jeffery, Nathan, and Candy Pop are interesting, but you spend so much time explaining who everyone is that the joke slows down. I understand that readers may need context, but I don't think this is the piece for that. Jason already knows who these figures are, so it's redundant to clarify their role when the person you're writing from is very familiar with them. Also, be careful with repeating the same kind of insult too often, like calling characters foolish or annoying; using more specific insults would make him feel more fleshed out. How else can he say that he finds someone annoying? Can you make him more grandiose?

Overall, though, this is a very interesting rant! It has a strong voice, a funny premise, and a clear sense of who the narrator is. The main thing to work on is pacing - keep the dramatic complaints, but cut anything that feels like it is only explaining background information! Very nice work!

best,
cocteau

Thanks for the review and your advice!

I’m kinda surprised that dove hasn’t gotten to these stories yet. She seems to like them a lot XD But in any case, we are here to win! For Violet Victory!


I like the tone-switching you can do. This really is a good character voice you have going that sounds very little like the usual stories you write! Excellent job!

…oh uhm. Maybe I should not tell him that I am one of the ppl that keeps confusing him for the Jeffrey teenager thing. Oops?

I like how just so utterly petty Jason comes across here. Like, he clearly cares so much about this but at the same time, it’s …such a niche thing. Ofc this is his life and he is rightfully upset but… I cant help but grin at this rant XD

This is exactly what rant forums are designed for. You go Jason, speak your truth. A shame about all the murdered children tho ☹
