Hiii! just wanted to stop by & let you know that Star Agents is consuming my every wake and soul (or whatever the saying is)

annyway, I love your fic and wish i had free time to write a fanfiction about your fanfiction
HI OH MY GOD THIS IS SUCH AN INCREDIBLE THING TO SEE IN MY INBOX. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO BOMBARD ME. I LOVE TALKING ABOUT STAR AGENTS.
1) How closely are you sticking to canon?
Closely, but also not closely. The format of star agents is individual episode rewrites that build on each other to form a story. How I write it is I literally put on an episode of my choosing and rewrite it, second by second, to fit the star agents narrative. Like, the conversations are word for word sometimes. Sometimes the chapter will take a turn and become something of its own (like the Jackies rewrite), while other times the chapter will stay pretty similar to canon, just with different people (like the recipe for disaster rewrite). Honestly, this story has a mind of its own. I very VERY rarely plan for the future, I just let it flow the way it flows naturally.
2) Why is Oscar more friendly to Todd than the rest of the precinct?
Short answer: he's not. Long answer: he's just really, really nice. Oscar really does NOT like Todd. Most of star agents is from Otto's perspective, and he is a wildly unreliable narrator who honestly can't read the room very well and is missing a GREAT deal of context. The thing is, Oscar can't be wildly rude to Todd next to his innocent partner (Otto), and since Otto is around Todd more often than not, he tones it down. Most times, he leaves the arguing for when they're alone, which isn't very often since Oscar tries to avoid Todd as much as possible. He's had arguments with Todd in the past---they just haven't been productive enough for him to want to have them again. Tdlr: Oscar isn't friendlier to Todd, he's just not actively fighting him in front of Otto.
3) Is Olive going to have the same redemption arc as Otis?
Nope. I'm planning something else for her redemption arc. It'll be pretty close to canon, but just know that Liv will never be called Agent Olive again. (She doesn't really want to, either way. She's a little too far gone to be an agent again, but this will make more sense in later chapters.)
4) Are Otis and Olympia swapping too?
5) How did Dr. O become Dr. O if the pienado didn't happen?
I think I might be a fake fan because I swear she was a doctor before the pienado. It's fuzzy but I swear she was like "IS THERE A DOCTOR HERE" and then olive and oscar go "YOURE THE DOCTOR" and she responds "OH,.. THEN GOOD LUCK" I could be hugely misremembering though
6) Did the pienado happen?
