Dear Fanfiction Writers

by SideshowJazz1

The characters of Total Drama have been cruising through the archive of stories about them recently, and they're rather...interested in those who write about them. So they're going to do a bit of their own writing - to us, to say what they want written and not written about them! Pretty much a side project written for laughs. R&R!

25. Alejandro's Letter

Dear Fanfiction Writers,

Despite being on a reality show, I didn't expect to have all this fanwork written about me. Don't get me wrong, I'm actually flattered (and a little surprised that there would be a fanbase around Total Drama that likes us enough to write all this (and to be honest, the amount of people who seem to like me was surprising considering the editing on World Tour), but there are a few things I want to bring up that aren't perfect.

First of all, it's the spelling. Some of the grammar is all right, but I've noticed there's several stories where at least five words are spelled wrong each chapter. The stories themselves are fine, but the spelling detracts from what would otherwise be a good story. A few of you also have formatting problems in a similar vein. It would be good if you could do something about that in the future.

The competition stories are mostly good. There's a particular series where my portrayal in particular was surprisingly accurate, if a little more harsh than I expected. Other competition stories, some in which I didn't compete in, also almost made me develop respect for some of the other contestants momentarily. It's clear that you, the fans, really do respect many of us and care enough to write us in-character.

And to help, I should really explain what you really want to know – do you write my relationship with Heather correctly? Heather tells me she's written on that subject, but didn't want to give any details. The answer is...well, some of the time. We argue more than most of you probably expect, but one thing you do get perfectly is the rarity of me losing. There's always a way to explain to Heather how giving in benefits her, and that usually works. I do occasionally try to get a reaction out of her, and I know it's immature, but she's just so cute when she's angry. I know that's a line, but it's true. Apart from that – well, I do what I can to make it work, she tries to pretend she's not as into me as she really is, and that's it.

So that's where we stand. I hope that helps those of you who are planning to write more about us from a relationship standpoint. As for the person who wrote about me having a younger sibling...please could you explain how you knew that I always wanted to have one? It's one of the reasons I liked being on Total Drama – I was always the leader on my team. And, well, I suppose that's everything. Happy writing.

Yours gracefully (and honestly this time),

Alejandro
