✔ Fine

“HOW DARE YOU THINK OF THIS CHARACTER AS TRANS?? IT’S NOT CANON *AT ALL* YOU DIMWIT. QUIT MESSING WITH THE AUTHORS INTENT!! IF YOU WANT TRANS CHARACTERS TAKE THE TIME AND ENERGY TO WRITE AN ENTIRE NOVEL FOR YOURSELF.”

Well, and:

“I asked the author if this character is trans, and they said no. I am really disappointed and bummed about that, and am going to soothe myself and anyone else who is disappointed with fic.”

✔ Fine
