randomly remembered the fandom wide disappointment after mister impossible came out and started laughing bc what was that even about. every single post i saw from somebody who didn't like the book was like 'but what about adam' and don't get me wrong i love adam he's my favourite but also why did people expect him to be there? he is not the main character of the trilogy. ronan and hennessy are. but then again there were also some people on the other end of the spectrum who were like 'oh but the book totally sufered middle book syndrome and the plot didn't progress at all in a meaningful way, adam's two minute appearance was the only saving grace' and my dudes. my guys. what

#it's genuinely wild to think that once upon a time adam was a hated enough character #that mstief saw opinions like 'ronan deserved better' when trk came out #and now he's become The Blorbo™. yknow. he's become That character #the most popular one who gets mischaracterised to the point of being unrecognisable #and luckily the parts of the fandom i engage with don't do that which is fun for me #but when books came out i inevitably ended up engaging with the not-so-great parts of fandom and uh. it's amazing how a series #where adam Wasn't the main character somehow ended up being about him. at least acc to some parts of the fandom lol #honestly i only realise the extent to which people were disapopointed with mi in retrospect #i had seen unfavourable posts and reviews but i loved it and everyone i followed loved it #and i assumed it was mostly a success #which it Was but apparently not As much as i thought #because apparently the wider fandom like greywaren more??? wild to me
