write a second verse yourself

[jmtorres]

I just put the crazy space incest I wrote as non-con that readers told me was in fact not non-con due to the narrators being unreliable up on AO3.

I do, firmly, believe in the validity of multiple interpretations and that authorial intent is dead. I was completely not snarking off at all when I prefaced the summary with "As the author, I feel ill-equipped to tell you what this story is about."

I mean, I think it's funny as hell, but I am totally serious.

ETA: tags I have been amusing myself with: Nietzschean relationship logic, canonical AU, extreme Highlander AU, character undeath

ETA: So I found an entry circa the s3 finale of Andromeda where I noted they were TOTALLY cribbing off stuff I'd written a year ago and then suggested they bring back Telemachus Rhade, if they were taking suggestions from me. Dear everyone who still cares about Andromeda: I am so so sorry. I didn't know I was using my powers for evil!

That's hilarious.

Which part? *G*

[azurelunatic]

All of it? But especially the "ill-equipped" bit. Because there are days when I stare at the things I have written and just go OKAY WHAT THE FUCKING HELL HERE.

It's not your fault that when Kevin Sorbo gives fans something we say we want he finds a way to twist it and make it kick us in the teeth.

Kevin Sorbo is the root of all problems with Andromeda, I swear.

Which helps feed his monstrous ego, I'm sure.
