amalthiaI've never de-friended someone over the types of stories they posted online, as long as there are warnings, so I'm baffled when I find out people de-friend LJ's because someone posts one story that does not meet their approval, though there were warnings that are impossible to mistake.
I just don't get how anyone who sees Sam/John underage child abuse in the warnings can possibly not know before they read the story that the John isn't going to be our John but an dark AU version, and then they go and de-friend author because they didn't like the story content. Why did they even read it??? And then why are they blaming the author and then defriending?
Basically, I was completely baffled by this reasoning.
Though I do understand not wanting to read stories where John and Sam and Dean are completely out of character. But the fact remains the author that wrote that one dark story has written a lot of other fan fiction that is in character, to me, for John, Sam, and Dean. So one story doesn't make up an entire resume for an author.
Okay gotta get house cleaning done. i've been AWOL all weekend and haven't gotten anything done.
