Awwww, OP! At least you were able to locate the person!

Is it the kind of fic that you could try to recount for yourself? Or jot down major plot/character development and commission someone to write it for you? I know neither of those options can ever really fulfill what you're missing (I feel you 100%, thank quizilla lol). I feel for you,OP.

take it from someone who had a massively popular fic circa 00-01 who still gets asks about it: it's not you. Every time I'm reminded of this fic I genuinely WANT to reupload it somewhere so the hardcore fans can find it again, but then life interferes, I have 20 other things I find more interesting to do at the moment, the html is too hard, the file is on a different external that might not connect to my current laptop...etc.

We oldbies do adore fans trying to find their old nostalgia-pinging favorite, we honestly do, but the hurdles between the fic and your ease of reading it on AO3 are almost insurmountable sometimes. We're trying. Maybe not as hard as we could but harder than some of these crappy old fics deserve.

If you bookmarked the old url or have the link saved somewhere, Wayback Machine over on the Internet Archive may have saved snapshots of it. I've managed to salvage multiple ancient fics that way.

In the early 00s I wrote fic for a not exactly obscure (it was fairly popular) but not hugely remembered British children’s cartoon and nobody really read it at first but then a fan of the show from Iceland messaged me and we exchanged emails and ideas for my story for a good while. It really cheered me up because I felt like NOBODY remembered the show.

Anyway if they somehow managed to contact me now I’d be made up and I do (somehow) still have the fic but I never finished it and I kinda cringe because my writing was in its infancy and the OC is most definitely a magical super special villain self-insert.

I probably wouldn’t want to unbury the fic so my summary is it probably isn’t you, and if I were the author I’d probably be flattered, happy to have a memory unlocked while also cringing at myself.
