"I sort fics by kudos and only kudos on stories with high kudos counts, why aren't there more stories with high kudos, I ran out of things to read." You're part of the problem.

"Authors artificially inflate comment counts by thanking people, I can't find anything with a real comment count to read." No they fucking are not, they're grateful for engagement.

"I can't read anything under 100k." That's the majority of fics you're ignoring, most novels aren't even that long.

"I don't have time to look for the incredibly rare diamond in the rough, so I won't read anything below a certain amount of kudos, comments, and hits." Those fics are popular because people gave them a chance and then snobs like you found them.

"I won't read anthing with a single typos." You made typos in that sentence, get off your high horse.

"One singular author didn't thank me for commenting, I'm never commenting on any fic again so I don't get burned." You're punishing people because someone didn't give you engagement they don't owe you that they might not have seen.

"This fic is three months old, it's so old, it doesn't matter if I comment or kudos, it's old." Fics do not have expiration dates, comment and kudos.

You're killing your fandoms with your snobbish behaviors.

“Oh I love the Les Amis de l’ABCs dynamic!’ Okay, give me a Joly who freaks out over if Feuilly is taking care of himself. Give me a  Courfeyrac and Bossuet who laugh way too loud at each other’s jokes. Give me a Jehan who is impressed with how lovely Marius’ love letters are. Give me an Enjolras who always goes to Bahorel because he knows a guy who knows a guy.

i genuinely cannot stand courferre. not just as a ship like i guess it’s fine but not only do i see ferre as arospec (which is just my opinion so whatever) but it’s always so half baked— like yes we do need a useless background ship between bubbly comic relief character and smart glasses character in every fic ever. also especially in exr fics, specifically from enjolras’s perspective, it seems so much like an afterthought. it’s giving “i cannot write friendships like a normal person, so i will shove the main character’s two best friends into a romantic relationship because i need them out of the picture so that said main character can have his own arcs without them”. HUH?? combeferre and courfeyrac are such a big part of enjolras’s life and to throw them aside like that so you can have your uninterrupted twink romance is genuinely so annoying?? like this is an exr fic bro, they don’t need to be there at all you know.

my point to all of this is that the writing of the triumvirate seems to only decline if courferre is shoved into the mix. i would probably like it more if fic writers actually gave a shit about them and gave them things to do rather than just making them “gay stereotype” and “hot nerd” (which yk. i could write a whole essay about how watered down les amis, ESPECIALLY jehan, ferre, and courfeyrac, have become in the fandom but i shall save it for another day).

also every interaction between courferre and enjolras in fics literally just reads like this

*crying buckets and buckets*....so, I can finally share a fanart I had done for "It starts with the sun", based on pure speculation.. I based it on one of Tangled's concept arts. It ends happily, I promise!

Likes, comments and shares are appreciated!

If you like my art, please consider supporting me on Ko-fi or via my commissions! It would mean a lot!
