I just reada really good fic but halfway through I realized "oh shit this is really familiar.... didn't I write something like this once?" And as I kept reading I kept predicting what happened next and the further I went the more convinced I was that they'd ripped off my story-
like, copied the ENTIRE plot and re-written it, just better than I had? The characters were more fleshed-out than mine were, and the POV was more interesting, and the pace made more sense- but it was MY STORY?
So close to the end I was like "holy shit.. do I message them? Ask if my story inspired theirs? Should I be angry? Flattered?" Cause their tags and description didn't mention me AT ALL, which, sure, it's fanfiction to begin with, but if you're using my work than at least credit me as inspo, right? Just to be courteous?
But I get to the end of the final chapter, and it's not finished, and I'm kind of disappointed cause I never finished my story and I was really immersed in their version now and had been looking forwards to seeing how they tied up my loose ends- so I scroll to the bottom to leave a comment, and.
It's MY URL.
IT WAS MY STORY THE WHOLE TIME.
THE ONE *I WROTE*.
In *2013*.
And FORGOT ABOUT
BECAUSE I WAS SO INSECURE ABOUT MY SLOPPY, SHALLOW, AMETEUR WRITING
And I'm just sitting here now staring into space thinking about every shitty story I've ever written now like
IT WAS ALL GOOD?
IT WAS GOOD THIS WHOLE DAMN TIME??
love myself a cockroach of a character. i look at them and go ”how is that fucker not dead? they should be dead. they should be dead ten times over. how are they not?” and 90% of the time the answer is a combo of sheer stubborness and homosexuality
let me assign you a gender
“I want what she’s on.” The spectrum??
None of you will ever know true fear until you know the context behind this picture
This is horrifying and this child is so young he only knows what his illegal adopters have told him
Just like I said. Illegal adoption.

Thank you
Yes, I totally believe that Louis doesn’t know any of the connotations behind rainbows at all. I 100% believe that Louis, a man who has been plagued by rampant gay rumors for a decade, has no idea what a rainbow might mean. I am fully convinced that Louis, a man who has been rumored to be with another male his whole career, is absolutely ignorant when it comes to the implications of rainbows. I guarantee that Louis, a man who staged bears who just so happened to have rainbow fur, is just a mega fan of gradients. I am so fucking certain that Louis is completely oblivious to the associations rainbows have with the LGBTQ+ community when he personally responded to commentary on his rainbow shirt years ago. You know what? I don’t even think Louis knows what a “““““rainbow””””” is. Actually, I KNOW for a a FACT that Louis William Tomlinson has never seen or heard of this so-called rAiNbOw at all. He is so Straight™, that his retinas are incapable of processing the full color spectrum. He sees only grey. He doesn’t even know what people are talking about when they say he commissioned a mural featuring a rainbow? He’s so confused.
