Morbane's coal

In quantum wankchanics, Morbane's coal is a thought experiment, sometimes described as a paradox, of quantum wankerposition. In the thought experiment, a hypothetical gift may be considered simultaneously both the fic of your dreams (TFOYD) and coal, while it is unread state, as a result of its fate being linked to a random subatomic event that may or may not occur.

The Coaltide interpretation implies that, after a while, the gift is simultaneously TFOYD and coal. Yet, when a coalie clicks on their gift, the coalie sees the gift either TFOYD or coal, not both TFOYD and coal. This poses the question of when exactly quantum wankerposition ends and reality resolves into one possibility or the other.

It was me! When I came back the thread was frozen and I'd been accused of being FP and in hindsight I did sound like them lol

Anyway as coalie below said, im pretty sure it's the 20k Watchmen fic. Wordcound checks out, it's their ot3, the summary reads like them.

You gotta "love" how all the paranoia about her self-replying means that any time anyone else tries to talk about them, someone keeps shoving that link in like it's a giant gotcha.

The link is only replying to people jam watsoning with "hi fishspeakers" and fucking up the DW search. You didn't notice?
