AYRT

I should have been more specific, yeah. Stuff like this, the fact that they're real people, is why I don't do RPF. It feels so wrong to write things about real people, regardless of how famous they may be.

The fourth wall comes into it because I've seen a lot of people use the "well they're famous and I'll never meet them, so it's just like they're fictional characters anyway" argument. To me there is no "fourth wall," you can't put celebrities in a box like that.

To me being a fan of a celebrity feels somewhat awkward, but is completely acceptable, so I guess I'm with the OP there. I guess my comment was a bit off-topic really.

I am also somewhat incoherent, and I apologize. I am not very good at wording my arguments the way I want them to come out.

Your comment was not completely off-topic, as I actually did consider mentioning my thoughts on RPF in the secret itself but ended up not including them. (Read my response to the other poster for what I think)

So I'm actually a bit glad you mentioned it, as that gave me a reason to discuss it.

Some people, who know the actors, have trouble separating them from their characters when they read fanfiction about them. On a professional level they know it's not about them, but their characters, but on a purely personal level it's "Their friends they're describing."
