reasons i shouldnβt talk about my source
it would probably be healthy to distance myself from it
i'm somewhat different than in canon
itβs really obscure, so i might get noticed by the author. i donβt want to interact with the author because it would feel uncomfortable and i donβt like him
it's really obscure, so other people might give attention to the author if i credit it. the author has a lot of.. lolcow-able(?) traits and i think him getting more attention would be bad and could result in a lot of harm. so i want to avoid directing people his way
reasons i think about my source anyway
aspects of myself are influenced by my source because i am a fictive
exotrauma :(
there was so little information about my character and i kinda want to know what canonically happened to her? thereβs a few drawings and a few sentences. sad (but also it makes me uncomfortable to look at my source so i also kinda don't want to know)
What if people find my source and judge me based on my character or the author's shitty behavior :(((
some of my headmates really liked it (This is probably why I got introjected)
