Re: Why isn't Yuletide growing?

[(Anonymous)]

No. I am not. No one is.

It is fine to write someone canon-typical content. You know the recipient likes the canon.

It is possible that Person A will write canon-typical content for Person B who did not realize that was a possibility. Entirely by accident, Person A may have taught Person B a lesson. They will also have given a gift in good faith. No one is aiming to teach a lesson. It just sometimes happens when one person is wrong and another person does a thing that challenges the wrong assumption.

I said "I guess. With brutal pragmatism, I'll be glad when you write them earnest canon-typical gore and they learn not to do that again." not because I am fantasising about someone's distress and disappointment in their gift and the ascendance of moral superiority, but because people will then be on the same page.

Well, I wouldn't want to get a gift from you, but not out of fear it might be canon typical. You're not very good at communicating your ideas.

All right. I'll work on my prose, and you can work on your understanding of the proper relationship between correlation and causation.
