omg did she rec the ambulance fic??

I was half joking bc b_o is weird. But she should still acknowledge my greatness!

She wrote the ambulance fic. Chin up, coalie. If she didn't rec your fic, it means someone with demonstrated shitty judgement didn't rec you!

[(Anonymous)]

OMG. I did not realize that SHE was the ambulance fic writer. Jesus. I feel like I won’t be able to tolerate seeing her in yulechat anymore lmao

[(Anonymous)]

Okay, I give up. What's the ambulance fic?

I was not a witness when this happened in YT 2013 but the gist is that YT Participant requested Die Hard M/M OTP with a note at the end saying they also love a female character and would love at least a mention of her in the story.

Beatrice_otter wrote a fic where one half of the OTP is in a relationship with the female character, and then the female character runs over the other half of the OTP. The fic is literally called “Road Kill.”

Previous coalie discussion I pulled from Google search: https://yuletide-coal.dreamwidth.org/8396.html?thread=31258316#cmt31258316

IMO it was clearly spitefic.

Not the point, but getting the character you are requesting's name wrong in your letter LOL.

She also publicly talked about how she didn't understaaaaaand why the recip rejected the fic!! She thought it was great, why didn't that dirty slasher recip not appreciate her genius??

[(Anonymous)]

da

Isn't she also the one who had a fic rejected (I'm not sure if it's this one or another one) and insisted on writing another story for the recip, who had to rejected it, and then a THIRD story for them in an attempt to write them something they like. The poor recip. It was harassment, plain and simple. How dare you not accept my apology and gush over my efforts!

I think it was her, but could be wrong.

Pretty sure that was a Watson, actually.

ayrt

Oh yeah, it was. I get the wankers mixed up a lot!

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT

It's easy to do! Tbh my first thought was that you must've mixed her up with Rosefox, until I actually looked the thread up and nope, it was a Watson.

[(Anonymous)]

Yikes, that has big "I will keep writing for you until you say you LOVE my fic" energy.

[(Anonymous)]

It gives me major embarrassment squick and makes me not want to join any exchanges, even though I know that this kind of thing is pretty far and few between.

Request was for male main character/male villain, or failing that them interacting in a fun gen way. She wrote main character/main character's canon female love interest, and then the love interest ran over the villain with an ambulance and killed him.
