So, apparently people in this fandom are so insane, that they're taking the time to write crack fanfictions to mock me, which I find both sad and funny at the same time. So someone gifted me a crack parody story of my typical fanfictions on AO3 called "Cacaphobe Ann", and it's one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen, and not in the way the author intended it to be.
I wanted tor respond to this story, but given I've been suspended on AO3 (and the author turned off guest reviews, quite purposefully I'd assume), I'm going to just make do with doing it here.
The story begins with Ann walking in on Morgana taking a shit, which triggers her "cacaphobia"; see, get it? Because "cacophobia" sounds like "cacaphobia", so she's scared of cats cacing.
Ha ha, how extremely hysterical.
You could've at least made the joke here something related to "caco"-One common joke I see people toss around is that I'm scared of the caco monsters from Doom, which would've made a more interesting idea than this.
Then the fanfiction moves onto Ann rejecting wanting to have sex with Joker and other people because they're "too attractive". She instead ends up fucking Adachi, because apparently this Ann loves ugly bastard porn, or something.
Seriously, "Ann loves ugly bastards!" is the stupidest and most nonsensical joke you could make, and this is where the entire fanfiction devolves into a bizarre fantasy piece on the author's part. Everything after this comes off less like mockery towards me, and more like the author wanted an excuse to fantasize some weird shit with Adachi. They even insert themselves into the story as "Reader"; which again, comes across less like any sort of parody at me, and more like the author just wanted to write some really nonsensical Adachi-fucks-a-hot-girl-who-likes-unattractive-men porn, and wrapped it around a crack fic aimed at me.
Anyway,
There's a lot of deeply unfunny meta humor that barely makes any sense. Then the fanfic ends with Adachi, Ann, and the "reader" starting a poly-relationship where they all watch ugly bastard hentai together (I'm not making any of this up. This is the level of parody we're dealing with here).
This entire crack fanfic comes across as nonsense TBH. None of it is really parodying me in any logical way beyond making Ann nonsensically like ugly bastard porn, which is the most lowbrow type of joke you could pick to mock me; and even regarding this aspect of the parody, the author completely negates this aspect in the first place by doing that via Adachi. Who, other than coming across as a really obvious selective choice on the author's part, is by all accounts not even ugly (average, is more how I'd describe him).
The thing is, is that I didn't go into the fanfiction wanting to dislike it out of spite. If someone legitimately parodied by fanfictions or my cacophobe-Ann AU in a way I found legit clever or funny, I'd kinda like that. Hell, I kind of even parody my own writing in my stories quite a lot; the most notable example of this being the ending of Ann Stamps Down Uglies, which goes full crack-fic in the last chapter after I decided to abandon that fanfic project.
But this is just a lame attempt, that just ends up saying more about the author than it does about me or anything I've written.
To the author (who was anonymous), don't take this personally, okay?
