Re: 21 OP.)

I'm not saying it's a big deal, I'm not claiming for an instant that if someone ships Edgeworth/Franziska I automatically think of them as the scum of the earth; and I admit to being puzzled over the backlash to my phrasing the secret as such (I'm considerably on the newer side to this community).

For what it's worth, sorry I got snarky with you. Phrasing's key; say something in a way that sounds bratty/elitist/confrontational/etc, people'll take it the wrong way. Of course, you also shouldn't have to proofread everything you wanna say that's on your mind...it's complicated.

No worries, and I guess I... sort of understand?

I dunno. As an author and someone who loves the characters and the multifaceted bonds between them, I take extra care when planning to make sure that what I want to do fits into canon; and if there's a conflict? Well, I try to adjust my story to it rather than adjusting the canon to my story. These two characters in particular have one of my favorite relationships in fandom, a wonderful sibling dynamic. And if I see someone writing them in a way that blatantly conflicts or contradicts what's been explicitly established, it sort of irks me and rubs me the wrong way as both a reader and a writer.

So yeah. I kind of understand the backlash, but... bleh, I don't know where I was going for this. Anyway, don't worry about initial snippiness.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I'm not above taking liberties with canon here and there, my views of characters may be a little different from canon/widely accepted fanon, but I like to respect canon cause without it I wouldn't have my favorite characters to write about.
