Damn! That's really annoying! But it makes sense -- most fandoms tend to have certain head cabins (many of them OOC to different degrees AND villains 9 out if 10 times will become "awww poor thing, no one ever hugged them, they're actually in pain",) that take the fandom by storm/become generally accepted fanon. It seems like the other author is just ticking off the right boxes for people :/

I hope you gain a steady and loyal (if not larger) following.

I know as a reader there are certain takes on characters I try to avoid because it's too out of character. Like Character A is never soft. A take where they show a momentary lapse in their general hard disposition ? Sure, I can buy that. Soft uwu precious prince dark sad boi who only wants to be held? That is a payoff that the author did not work for and even with chapters of A going to therapy, the closest they'd get would be admitting themselves some vulnerability, maybe being a little nice to select other characters. Maybe.

Anyways, keep doing your thing, and I'm not quite sure /where/ you follow them, but is it possible to "mute" their updates? I get wanting to follow them to support them, but just because you follow them doesn't mean you actually have to pay attention to them, ya know? Back on social media, I follow maybe 200 people? I really only stay abreast of about 5-10 people's lives, and half of those maybe I check once every three months or if their feed pops up when I log in.

I know there's a feeling of well I should actually pay attention, etc. But if you're not my friend, or someone who I care about...well. I'll check in every now and then and you'll still keep your follower count. Can't pay attention to you when I need to focus on myself. This sounds messed up maybe, but I've come to a point where I know I need to stop trying to look or compare or allow the space for the mentality of feeling jealous or feeling insecure because I'm not X like someone else. Maybe I'm reading too much into your post and projecting lol

I hope you do have fun though! That's what fandom's for!
