oh, and also i forgot to say something yesterday. plagiarism is not taking ideas or getting inspiration. plagiarism is taking word for fucking word. i was talking to tiana yesterday and we compared the two stories. duplicity has longer paragraphs and has capitalization. deception, on the other hand, has shorter paragraphs and low caps. it's like an essay for school, perhaps. the teacher tells you to write an essay based on a topic. all the essays are different, but have the same idea. it's like you're accusing her of copying an idea for an essay but really, they're very different. so if you want to accuse tiana even more, then go ahead, sweetie. it's not the end of the world if two people have the same idea. there's so many stories with similar topics, but they're all different and i still read and enjoy them (not that i'm reading duplicity for pleasure, i just read it to compare things). oh, and if i wanna touch the oven, i will, no matter how much the heat burns.
