Transcript by OP

[fscom]

I am in a small fandom and into an even smaller ship

There's literally only two english-speaking people producing any kind of content for it, and one of them is me.
I follow the other one because how couldn't I? But I'm starting to grow resentful of
them. I just don't like their interpretation of the ship and characters' dynamic.
They heavily woobify the half of the ship I personally see as the more dominant one, and I honestly believe their interpretation is quite OOC, seeing as this character is actually pretty driven and charismatic in canon, whereas they portray it as an almost helpless, passive punching bag.

In any other circumstance I wouldn't care. That's their headcanon and if they are having fun it is none of my business... The problem is that because they have a larger following than me, their headcanons are bleeding over to other people who are into the
ship, and some of these shared fans now talk to me and engage with my stuff in a way that makes it clear they are on board with the other person's woobifical headcanons, and it is really starting to grind my gears.

The worst part is that their content contribution to this ship is replying to people messages about it, and half-baked posts "I had this plot bunny I will do nothing with", whereas I am the one sitting here actively writing fanfics and drawing art.
All of this just because they happen to have more numbers on that cursed followers counter.
I'm still having fun in my corner and will keep making my stuff as I better see fit, but I can't deny I am growing quite annoyed at people adopting their headcanons left, right and center. Ugh.
