Alright, to the people that are dogging on me non-stop:
I'm sorry the story is predictable in your eyes, but how do you know what I'm really going to do with it?
I'm sorry Maggie is an apparent "Mary-Sue", but there seems to be no way to even avoid that, according to everybody's different standards on it. First off, she's the main character. Second off, this is only chapter two, so you don't know how she's fully going to be portrayed. So stop bitching and give me a chance to get the whole fic written.
I'm sorry she's a "self-insert". I'm sorry that I like to imagine myself being inside one of my favorite television shows. Is that really unusual? For one thing, I did that on purpose for this one. I even said the characters were based off of me and my friends. That's what I do, I take myself and maybe a friend or two (or more) and we create our own characters and throw ourselves into a movie, etc. That's pretty much 80% of all fan fictions on this site. If you want to read something not self-insert, read a fucking book.
I'm sorry that the story "sucks" because I didn't create my own plot, but I wanted to have it follow with the episodes. I could have made my own plot, but I'm a writer who enjoys making characters that are added into movies/comics/books/etc. It's as if I'm adding myself into one of my favorite movies or so on. Is it so bad to want to follow the storyline of something? Rather than making something that won't quite make sense after a sequel to said movie or book has come out? That bothers me, I don't know about any of you.
I'm sorry that I'm not a professional writer and that my dialogue "sucks", but that's my style. Honestly, there aren't very many fan fictions written in decent dialogue at all. Sure, there are kids younger than I am that have a better imagination when it comes to writing, and kudos to them.
I'm sorry I changed point of views after the first chapter. If it makes everybody peachy, I'll go re-write the first chapter so it's all in the same point of view. When I first started writing, I wanted it to be third-person. But as I kept writing, I kept putting "I" instead of "Maggie". So I changed it to make it more comfortable for me to write.
No, I'm not in college. I'm actually a senior in high school.
Also, THIS IS A FAN FICTION, not a script for a new episode or something of that sort. Yeah, I made Maggie Nathan's twin, big deal. And there is the possibility that certain people wouldn't know about her. I mentioned in the first chapter that her manager is using her to gain more money because she's Nathan's sister. But that doesn't mean everybody is going to know her. For example, in the episode "Dethfam", where the news team finds their families, no one in the band seemed to know the other band members' families. Plus, the news team had to "uncover" the families, so the boys were obviously trying to hide the fact that their families even exist. Therefore, Nathan could have been doing everything he could to not let the others know about Maggie. Like I said in chapter two, they got in a fight before Nathan joined Dethklok and never fully recovered. I haven't gotten far enough into the story to even show whether Nathan still cares about her or hates her or whatever.
To the so-called "Professor":
If you really are one, you wouldn't be typing the way you do, you would be writing like a proper educated person. And you certainly wouldn't be telling me to go fuck myself. Thanks for that, by the way. Oh, and you spelled "diminish" wrong.
Seriously, the whole point of a fan fiction is to have fun with it, to be able to imagine your own character(s) to either add into what's already been done or to create your own plot, and to enjoy reading other people's fics. It's not like these are going to be published, anyways.
I hope you're all not only going off on me for these things, because I've read many a fic that has contained everything and more that you all have complained about.
And no, I'm not going to delete any of the comments. I like criticism. But criticism isn't flat out saying "Your story sucks ass, go fuck yourself." Have some respect for people.
I apologize for going off the way I did in the last chapter. As I said, I've been in a terrible mood because I just lost someone very close to me. Anyone who has experienced that knows that feeling. I did go overboard with the last chapter, and I realize that. I could've handled that comment differently.
If you'd like to give me a chance to finish the story before you tell me how terrible I am, continue reading.
If you're going to keep making me feel terrible without giving me the chance to fix my mistakes and finish the story, I will ignore you from now on.
These are supposed to be for fun.
Thanks.
Becca
