Can we talk about their tumblr in general? They have been killing it lately. I also really liked their reply about RPF.

This is the first time I've seen a team engage with fans precisely like this and I have to applaud them. They've been careful and respectful all while identifying a weird niche to keep fan interest from totally tanking. I'm impressed.

I would have preferred if they just ignored the response, especially since the person who said anything A) shouldn't have said it directly on their post and B) fic shouldn't be in the tags anyway. A company has to know its audience, but the interaction made me cringe out of my skin and block them from three different blogs.

*shrug* I'm usually the same way about this kind of stuff, but I liked the way they handled it. You're right, the person shouldn't have said it, but their response didn't ping my secondhand embarrassment at all.

AYRT - I have been enjoying it, maybe I would have preferred no one to ask them about fic, so directly, but I'm sure it wasn't a surprise to them, after all, Gabe and Tyson valentine cards didn't just happen spontaneously.

It is nice that they are playing and it's like they are willing to keep that stuff on tumblr but it's a little unusual. I guess they tailor their approach to the site they are using.

They replied to an RPF ask? Do you have a link?
