The way you framed it makes me feel like an asshole for not taking your side, but when I see people get weird looks and not know why, it's usually because they said something incredibly creepy. (It most commonly has to do with sex, gender, or both, though I've seen people accidentally be total creeps about race.) What on Earth was this fic about?

This. I'm sorry, OP. I do sympathize with people who have difficulty in crowds, but in general I find that when something like this happens it's very likely that there's something people are reacting to that you might not be aware of. And that's okay. It's still a bummer to have people reacting in ways you didn't anticipate or want, but it's a fixable issue.

This is assuming that you're not going through one of those "let's dissect everything I said and beat my head against a wall for how stupid I sounded" moments. I do that all the time, but realistically, this may well be you looking at the experience through a more harshly critical filter than everyone else. It could be that nobody else was thinking of you or your fic in those terms, but being so self-conscious makes you feel like they are. does that make any sense?

This. Nine times out of ten, the people I see complaining about how no one seems to want to include them in things are the ones who don't have any sense of proper boundaries or social etiquette in general.

Can't tell you what it's about because it would be easy to find. But it was a fusion fic. You know those stories where people take other characters that an actor has played and drags them in to be brothers/sisters/family/past life/etc. It was sort of like that, but it just pulled on a few elements of another character and pasted it onto fandom darling to fix a rather tragic bit of canon that everyone cried about. It wasn't a crazy piece about chopping people up or a/b/o genderswap eggpreg velociraptors riding sharknadosquids with obligatory tentacle rape.

Ah, okay. I have to admit that's not my thing, but I wouldn't be so rude about it. :/ I'd be interested in how it works.

I would like to read about velociraptors riding sharknadosquids.
