Asiya:

Okay, I'm only 1/3 of a "X Reader" author. I've written like...two of them.

But my AOT X Reader story is kinda popular, so, I guess I have the necessity to write this.


Anyways, I'm not an "official" "X Reader" author for many reasons.

1. I like writing OCs because I like creating their personalities/appearances as a separate character. I also want to be an author when I'm older.

2. I feel like writing an "X Reader" could be great if you're doing oneshots or romance stories. Sometimes, going full-on PLOT/ACTION/STORY/NARUTO-STYLE can be really hard. Those kinds of stories require so much detail for the main character (the reader) and I HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT THE READER WANTS.

3. Regarding to #2, I.Can't.Fucking.Please.Everyone's.Desires. A lot of the readers are so damn picky and they comment on every single one of the sentences in the story.


Dan:

Even as 1/3 of a X Reader author, you seem to have it tough

(っ'ω`)ノ(╥ω╥)


Kageyama:

Wait, they criticize you on every sentence? How? (¬_¬;)


Asiya:

The passage could be like...
"You caressed his face with your hand"


And Ms.Buttfungus would be like...
"omg I don't have any hands lol Asiya you inconsiderate bitch"


Dan and Kageyama:

Asiya:

Like, "SHUT UP" jfC (°ㅂ°╬)

This is the MAIN reason why I perfer people to write their own stories ヾ(`ヘ')ノ゙

People have different desires, different reactions, different interests, so writing your own story could fullfill that.

I don't necessarily have a problem with self-inserts if they're interesting. I've read a lot of my friends' stories (that are self-inserts) and they're pretty good ヽ( ̄~ ̄ )ノ


* When writing X Readers, my style would survive behind the "oneshot/romance" line. If you didn't know, I HAVE to include fighting/action in my stories. It's an essential and it's basically my type of style *


Let's see, imagine if you were to interpretate Sword Art Online into literature (imagine that you're the creator).

You have everything planned out, the plot, the details, the characters' style, the character backstories, their personalites and just...EVERYTHING. But all you needed to do, is figure out the main character's name and appearance.

Now, you're just like "We'll just make this a reader-insert! So the name will be "Y/N" or "(First Name)." And of course, the appearance will be "(Hair Color) or "H/C," "(Skin Color) or "S/C," "(Eye Color)," (Fav Color) trench jacket, armor, boots, etc"


After you're done publishing the story, you get a bunch of complaints, stating stuff like:

"OMG I DON'T LIKE TO USE SWORDs, I WANNA USE A DEATH SCYTHE INSTEAD"

or

"I HATE SKIRTS, WTF WHY AM I SUCH A PANSY IN THIS U SUCK"

or

"WHY DID I FORGIVE HIM EASILY? THIS SUUCKS"

or

"EW I DON'T WANNA KISS HIM. WORST STORY 1/9"


This is what I go through (ノ_<。)


Dan:

Wow...that's very specific... (⊙_⊙)


Asiya:

I feel like I'm at war with my own readers (>_<)


Yo, when something doesn't go their way, they come up with the most "smart-ass" comment and I'm here, sitting behind the screen like: "BITCH JUST TAKE IT" ヽ(‵﹏′)ノ


I DON'T CARE IF YOUR HAIR IS SHORT OR HALF-SHAVEN, YOU CAN PUT YOUR HAIR IN A BRAIDED UPDO BECAUSE IT'S AN ANIME AND I SAID SO, AND USING MY OWN LOGIC, YOU'RE ABLE TO BRAID YOUR FUCKING HAIR. BY USING HAIRSPRAY AND CLIPS OR WHATNOT (╬ Ò﹏Ó)


I DON'T FUCKIN CARE IF YOU'RE A TOMBOY WHO HATES DRESSES, YOU WORE ONE ANYWAYS SO DOn'T CHANGE MY STORY AND RUIN THE MOOD FOR EVERYONE. ONE DAY, I'M GONNA MAKE YOU WEAR A HOTDOG SUIT INSTEAD, IN FRONT OF LEVI (ノ°益°)ノ

I'M TRYNA GET YOUR SENPAIS TO NOTICE YOU SO FUCKIN TAKE IT ٩(╬ʘ益ʘ╬)۶


Kageyama:

Welp, Asiya's at her limit Σ(□_□)


Asiya:

People pretend like wearing skirts and dresses are not badass when, clearly, they haven't seen how Maka Albarn or Asuna Yuuki roll. Hmph (¬‿¬ )


Dan:

.......Alright then.

Happy Halloween everyone
