A distant relative of a (dead) person I write fic about stumbled across my works >.< They seem to be pleased by the fact that these exist (especially since they contain nothing disrespectful), but aw goddamn do I feel like the biggest creep in the world now
also, it looks like they aren't exactly familiar with the concept of fanfiction
they kind of wanted to talk to me at first, but I'm not sure if they will

How distant a relative, and how long dead?

Very distant, very long dead. They didn't know them personally. It's a historical figure.

Man there is nothing to worry about then, don't even sweat it. If they never even knew the person and they're long dead, IMO, it's not like their connection is even that much more meaningful to the person than your own. I really, really wouldn't feel like a creep over it.

Yeah, OP, don't worry about it! :)

Do I sense a possible book deal? ;DDD

I guess as long as they're happy, it's okay?

I'm a distant relative of a person appearing as a very minor character in André Gide's Si le grain ne meurt and I would love to see fic about them some day.

I'm not a relative of any real prototype of a fictional character, but MTE. If I was, I'd love to see fic about them.

(and I wish you luck! I'm not familiar with the thing, but perhaps someone will eventually write something :)

As a distant relative of a semi-known historical figure, it's just kinda cool to see the connection and say, "Hey, I'm related to the guy!" We're as much fans of the subject as the people writing about them, since we've never known them, either.

History is all stories, gathered by people who have never known their subjects. They're more or less based in reality. The only difference with you is you're making up entirely new tales! (Which may or may not be based in reality...)
