This. I've found some of the meanest people out there feel outcast/victimized in other parts of their lives (whether currently, or in the past).

When they have the opportunity (popularity, success, p-o-w-e-r) instead of being rational, happy humans, they turn around and use the bad behavior they experienced on others. Of course that's not always the case, but sometimes it happens.

The fact that this person felt that they needed to steal your story in the first place is very telling. Why would they feel so insecure about their own writing/ideas in a ~friendly, amateur, let's have fun and write fanfic!~ situation?

OP... Either join the fight (publicly call 'em out, etc) or walk the fuck away. Then again, your creative stuff belongs to you, and shit like this in a "real world" setting can be really dangerous (plagiarism).

But also consider: Keep in mind that an idea vs. straight up stealing word-for-word is kind of tenuous (ex: pixar/dreamworks both make movies on the same subject/basic plot, but are completely different and both are successful in their own way) . The way this other person acted is totally out of line, especially for a ____friend___... but basic story concepts get thrown about and used and reused all the time.
