    for the love of god, please:

    • CANON - established or agreed-upon constraints governing the background narrative, setting, storyline, characters, etc., in a particular fictional world.

    • CANNON - a smooth-bore artillery weapon, typically muzzle-loading.

    When I was recovering from TBI I made a bunch of fan fiction involving real people. Apparently you’re not supposed to use real people for fan fiction? You might think that’s why I got banned from the Behind the Bastards subreddit, but nope! The mods had to crack down on people like me because the admins were breathing down their necks after Charlie Kirk got killed. I posted a Charlie meme that was a lil too spicy

      Eeh, while real-person fanfic is a little contentious it’s by no means “not allowed” in fanfic.

        Yeah I wrote a ton of rpf. And met one of the people I wrote about. He found it funny. He also knew we both understood it was fiction.

        Some people hate it, which like. Understandable! Have a good day!

          Oh to be clear I think it’s pretty creepy - I’m just never going to argue you shouldn’t be allowed to post it. Emphatically not my thing, but not everything is and that’s fine.

          Genuinely glad you have had it confirmed that at least one subject is comfortable with it. Not judging I swear: is consent of the subject something you seek out before writing the fics or is it just, like a bonus?
