I see your perspective and I understand a few of your points, however, things are not so simply black and white. But I also see that I may have been misunderstood and caused you confusion.

You write your argument from a perspective as a reader, I made a statement from the perspective of not just a reader, but also a writer. I should have been more clear.

I enjoy taking the pieces of a character apart to examine; more pieces, more character depth, more enjoyment. (To be fair, the psychologist in me may also play a part in this.)

Human emotions are complex things. I dislike Snape as a "person" because if I were to meet him in person, I'd down right hate him. But he was made that way on purpose to elicit these exact emotions. Snape is a wonderful "character" because be has a purpose and he does it well!! Snape's role as a "character" and plot device crafted to push the main character (Harry) here and there for the plot is enjoyable. I cannot say I hate Snape in his entirety because it is more complex than that.

You may not understand this viewpoint I have, and you may not like it, but that does not invalidate my separation of "person" and "character."

Some people gotta understand the difference between, "I like this character as a person" and "I like this character as a character. "

For example: Snape from Harry Potter? HATE him as a person. He was blinded by past events and ghosts of dead bullies and pushed them onto a child who literally knew nothing. But as a character?? LOVE Snape! He's well written as a character that can't let go of the past and is drowned in grief years after the death of someone he loved. His character has so many layers and complexities that he's intriguing!!

The Gravity Falls fandom really revived for a book and old man yaoi between a trillion year old dream demon and somebodys uncle. What is life? 😭

cultural misunderstandings + accidental engagement/marriage might just be one of the best trope combinations to read🤭🤭🤭🤭

So true 😭

reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something

[atell-talepoet04]

Facts😤

I don’t care if this comes off as cruel but you are not entitled to fanfiction. You are not entitled to podfics. You are not entitled to translated works.

Creators are not paid to make fanworks. People spend years of their lives writing fic and getting nothing in return except positive interactions. You can ask to make a translation. You can ask to make a pod fic. But you cannot demand it.

And because the only thing fanfic writers get in return for their work is positive feedback, taking away an authors ability to receive that is disgusting. Authors deserve to have full control and ownership of their works.

Fanfic isn’t a product to consume and then demand more of. Authors and creators deserve better.
