Oh fandom. I ended up posting a review to her story. Admittedly, the, as Cofax says, "you're doing it wrong!" complaint regarding fan fic just makes my head hurt. I love all of it, even if I don't like the story itself, I love the messy creative process and the fact that it exists. To so categorically and bluntly state that THIS IS TRUTH, THIS IS CANON, well, that bothered me. I found it especially ironic given how my LJ has blown up in the past week over the discussion of OCS in romances of some sort or another with canon characters. For this underscores another delight of fan fic - the communities that build around stories. Oh well. A loss to be sure.

The message has been received. Morgan and Edmund need a talk.

"So," Edmund began.

Morgan sat, fiddling with the paper in her lap.

"So," he repeated.

"I wrote it all down," Morgan blurted out.

"Wrote what down?"

"Why I was upset, so that if you ever asked, I'd be ready." She hesitated and shuffled the paper.

"It seems you wrote a great deal," Edmund said. He didn't think he had been that odious.

"A few pages," she said, a little dismissively. "Not that much. And I had a lot of time over shut in."

That seemed like rather a lot of verbiage. "My faults were so many?"

She shrugged. "Well, I wrote it in Rat and Crow, so that took extra effort."
