Re: 3 Truths, 1 Lie

Gifting someone forced outing, blackmail, and implied rape of a trans character unrequested as a holiday gift is hot garbage, pal. It's way worse than the original gay bashing dragon shit.

Okay, fine, you made me actually look up the original request. Recip asked for exploration of gender and gender roles, lgbt characters, exploration of the 'drawbacks' of Weyr life and Impression, mentions liking a cathartic but bittersweet ending, and does not DNW anything around noncon, rape, or transphobia. This isn't what I would have written them, and I can get why it might have upset you browsing the archive, but it was CTNW and it's absolutely in line with what that request could imply they'd want.

Also they have a "promise I'll finish it tomorrow!" letter where the Pern section and all the general bits are missing completely, so honestly, whatever.

If you are the recipient and hated it, reject the thing already and stop wanking on anonmemes. If you're not the recipient and you're mad someone wrote something you didn't want to read and CNTW'd for it, get over yourself.

Also if you're the recip, finish your letter next time if you want to be able to complain that you didn't get exactly what you wanted.

"I showed everybody by Impressing a very special Bronze when not even I believed I could" is like *the* cathartic Pern happy ending, kid. Have you ever been in Pern fandom?

You are the Apache Wars RPF writer trying to shift attention to another fic and I claim my five pounds.

1) That actually *is* the canonical "happy" ending of the first ever Pern story, because Pern, man, why is it like that. Congrats, this author did way better than McCaffrey managed.

2) That isn't actually how *this* story ends though. Weirdly, "happy ending" doesn't mean "nothing bad has ever happened to me, ever."

It's not and you are way invested in making this out to be a lot worse than it really is.
