the out of body experience of describing the plot of your fanfiction to a well-meaning but not-fandom friend
me: "it& #39;s about the inherent evils of capitalism in the canadian oil industry and it& #39;s based on a gay chinese fantasy drama"
friend: ".... you know what I don& #39;t get it but I support you"
side note: my self-prediction is in, patent au is gonna be at 95k +/- 2k words
a well-meaning, not-fandom person in my life: oh, you write? that& #39;s cool! Can I read something you wrote?
me:
I love connecting with fandom ppl over things I write it& #39;s so much fun, but if a coworker/family member came up to me and said "I read that thing you did! It was really good!" I& #39;d just quit on the spot and move to canada
thanks for vibing with this thread friends, now read the fic that prompted this, my mdzs Canada-set modern office au https://archiveofourown.org/works/23884834 ">https://archiveofourown.org/works/238...
