tbh i'd probably read a lot of x reader fics if it weren't for the fact that most of them mischaracterize the character involved
#like i dont care about the y/n being mischaracterized i cant expect em to know me#but like. hello. if you're gonna do this at least write the character somewhat in character#like if you're gonna do a yandere take on a character there are ways to make that fit into-#-a character's normal characterization. its possible.#but no like. you could read three different stories of three different characters#and they'll all be characterized as a yandere in the exact same way#<- using yandere as an example here cause its the most common one for some reason#but the POINT IS. they don't actually know the character well enough to write them properly#they just think the character looks attractive and are projecting a personality they find attractive#onto the character#which most of the time does not mesh well with the character's actual characterization#and i will admit not all of them do this. there are a few diamonds in the rough#but like. the number of x reader fics ive found and have thought of as being in character#like... there's less than five of them thats for sure#and its CRAZY to me cause the whole idea of an x reader should start from like. you love that character a lot#like its meant to be about loving that character soooo much.#but like. it really doesn't feel that way??#it feels like you took the character and turned them into Edward from Twilight like why would you DO THAT??#(notably i have not read/seen Twilight this is about Vibes)
