I just had the most jarring convo on one of my stories.
The person showed her distate for one dialogue that had a hidden meaning, that they interpreted the opposite way. This particular detail had been explicitily discussed in one of the chapters in a extense scene. So the person not understanding the meaning did not make any sense.
NOW AHEAD WILL BE SOME SPOILERS FROM ONE OF MY FICS. I won't say which one to keep the spoilers contained.
THE SCENE:
"I believe it will be a girl, so Bora." Jungkook replied confidently.
"Hey! Bora was my idea." Taehyung scolded.
"But it's not your kid being born today, is it?" Jungkook bit back, showing his tongue childishly.
The reader was pissed off bc it seemed that I was implying that Tae's D was small.
And I was so confused how she came to that conclusion because if anything, it was the opposite.
Because: 1) there was a specific scene in one of the chapters where Tae's BIG D was the topic
2) the reason for the baby not be his, is simply bc he did not do the deed with the pregnant party
And then this person had the audacity to admit that they skipped that scene (and probably many others).
I was so pissed I just blocked them, bc that had been the first interaction EVER on the fic. Not even voting on the chapters she did and that comment was on the EPILOGUE.
I can accept constructive criticism, but the effing audacity to come show distate for something you refused to read, is what pissed me off.
Like, why are you reading stories if you're going to skip scenes?
From what I understood, this person only supports one specific ship... and they were reading a OT7 fic of mine. Like???? If you're going to skip reading all the other ships in the story, DO NOT READ THE STORY AT ALL!
