4: Honestly, I have no clue exactly what people think I did since apparently it was something so infamous that it still nags at people. What was said in one comment that actually was taken very graciously by the author was how she should attempt to justify the pairing more instead of simply writing PWP that made little sense as to why it would even happen. It was one of many RenoxRufus fics in the course of about a week that read the same way and had the general plot -- or lack thereof -- with Rufus being some mindless prick and Reno being slutty and annoying and it just made no sense as to why they'd be having sex. It was pretty well known that I wasn't fond of the pairing after a certain art theft incident that had taken place earlier in that month, but I'm usually unconcerned with what people bother liking since I don't expect everyone to like what I do and actually almost prefer it that way since when people do start liking things they start copying said things.

What happened afterwords will go down in [livejournal.com profile] ffvii_yaoi fandom history ... though I wasn't even directly connected to it. It ended up that some fans who thought it was there place to get involved in something they didn't even know the details about and attacking me. [livejournal.com profile] seraphim_sephy was there to witness it all. Like ... I seriously had complimented someone on a TsengxRufus fic they had written as well as a RudexReno fic and she attacked me with, 'Oh so you actually think someone else can write other than you.' It was bizarre since I dunno where this even came from. But yeah ... the whole thing was actually an indirect assumption by a lot of fans on there and I guess since there always has to be the one to blame ... I was the easiest target because I was known to be snarky at times and was fairly wellknown around there and people were intimidated by me for some unknown reason.

But really, hell if I know what happened. But it must have made some form of impact for people to still care over a year later. o_O
