One of your stories: set in 1659
Your Y/N in said story: āiāLl sEe yOu gUyS tOmOrRowā
Just in what universe did people from the 1600s speak like this? And you have the audacity to put a disclaimer that says āaNy siMilAriTiEs aRe cOiNcidEnCesā when you canāt even keep their manner of speaking as historically accurate as possible ā and this should have been the least of your āstoryāās problems.
Another thing.

Yeah, donāt ever come back and write. Yāall put to shame and great waste every resource material available for actually-decent writers.
I honestly donāt know why Iām taking the time of the day to reply to such message. But I figured, since you also took the time to read through 30k words and also took the time to write wtv issue you had with my fic, I might as well answer it lol
1) āJust in what universe did people from 1600s speak like this?ā: If I were to use the English people used to speak back in the 1600s, no one would be able to understand. Technically, Early Modern English which was prominent from the 1400s to the late 1600s, is unintelligible to modern speakers (i.e., plebs like you and me) unless youāve studied it. I would have to write like Shakespeare. You can argue that a lot of Modern English words or sayings came from Shakespearean English, and people will only understand some of it. Also, issue is, I canāt write Shakespearean English, and Shakespearean English is so complicated that I didnāt even want to attempt it because of annoying hating readers like you who nitpick at every irrelevant detail that has nothing to do with the plot.
2) The fic is also set in Versailles, France. Going by your logic, the characters should then be talking in French. Hell, I couldāve written everything in French if I wanted to because I am French. But that wouldnāt be fair to people who cannot read French. Once again, Middle French is highly complicated and no one would be able to understand unless theyāre a) a native speaker, and/or b) someone who studied and understand Middle French. Honestly, in WHAT universe do FICTIONAL CHARACTERS set in FRANCE speak ENGLISH!!! Cannot fathom this logic!!!
3) āAnd you have the audacity to put a disclaimer that says āany similarities are coincidencesā when you canāt even keep their manner of speaking as historically accurate as possible.ā: Bestie, go back and read what you just wrote because it makes no sense, and thereās no correlation between the two.
4) āThe age of majorityā is a thing. I donāt know why youāre so pressed about this. Are you illiterate.
5) āLeft right fingerā: Thanks for catching that typo! I still donāt understand why youāre so angry about the fact that my FANFIC had typos (but ok). But also, letās see you try writing a fic thatās 30k words and see if you wonāt make any mistakes or miss any typos. Make sure to drop the link in my inbox when itās ready. Iāll give back the same energy you gave me. š š¼
Next time, donāt be shy and come off anon. :-)
