Self-Insert Fic/Quotes
Kevin: Alright, my new bestest fictional friends...! Now we can go on all sorts of comical and vaguely homo-erotic adventures together! |
-- reading someone's romantic fantasy about their fictional character isn't fun. It makes me feel like a voyeur. This is one of the most blatant self-inserts I've seen for a while. I'd really rather not see it displayed in a public archive for my fandom. |
Allow me to rant here: you should never base a character on yourself. It just sets you up for viewing the character as you, rather than as a tool with which to write a story, and then you become attached and don’t want to make anything bad happen to the character because that’s you, and you also don’t want to show the character’s bad side because you’d like to present yourself in the best light, and before you know it you’ve turned your character into a Sue. |
