VID 1: when you see a slash fiction involving you, do you read it as if it were you or a different person

Um... not that I do that very often, but um... I don't know like i- it's hard because y'know I would... pretend that it's like me, but some of them are just like... there are- there are things that are just slightly wrong.

Like there was one that was uh... a Pokémon themed one with me and Phil. And, they said I used a heracross [disappointed stare]. Like, seriously? Like if you're gonna write a Pokémon fanfiction about me, I would not use a heracross. Like if it was like 'Dan whipped out his Gengar', okay. But, seriously? I mean how am I supposed to take that seriously.

VID 2: I will go down with this ship

You wanna write fanfiction about me having hot Poké sex under the stars with one of my friends? Well, knock yourselves out. But to say that my favourite Pokémon is a Goldeen? Are you kidding me?

Literally the lamest Pokémon. It's just a goldfish, for fuck's sake. What does that say about me?

VID 1: Dan's VYou - what is your opinion on slash fiction and have you ever found one of yourself (2011)

Umm... yes, I have found the slash fiction and the ones of me. In fact, I think I've read most of the ones with me in them. I don't know what that says about me- Actually, I don't know why I would've read the ones that aren't about me with other people. I think that's a better explanation.

But uh- yes, I have read most of the ones that are about me and- no it doesn't creep me out. I, you know... I don't wanna say it's hilarious, because I think some people have put their hearts and souls into these, and you know I don't want to mock them. But, um, I think some of them are actually really well written. I mean I was reading a couple of them and I was like, 'this person has a really promising career in writing ahead of them'. I mean, some of them were downright smut, don't get me wrong. Disgusting, but hilarious. I'm sure some people definitely appreciated it.

But, yeah some of them were like really romantic and stuff and I was like 'wow I'm getting into this- wait, wait, wait wait'. Not in that way, creepers. But, you know, there's nothing wrong with it- Well, there might be, but y'know. [Mumbling] Gotta end this question.

VID 2: Phil's VYou - Have you ever found slash fiction of yourself (2011)

Yes. It was both disturbing and hilarious at the same time. And scarily well written.
