Random thought that occurred to me about Lily:
One thing I realized last night was that as horrifying and disgusting as Lily's Stockholm fanfics were, I feel like the fact that NintendoGal was the co-writer was probably the only thing that kept Lily from making them even worse, at least in the beginning.
I say this because Lily obviously received backlash for the fics because of how she portrayed abusive people who are sexual deviants. And only then did she start rewriting the framing to make the readers sympathize with the abusers, which didn't fix the issue. Technically, that just made it even more deplorable. But before Lily had received that backlash, NintendoGal was the one who had voiced her concerns during the writing process. Including with the scene(s) that were so unbearable for her that Lily scrapped those ideas.
And while I don't think any of the original drafts of those deleted scenes have ever been shown to the public, I can only imagine how bad they must've been when the fics were already so horrible as is. I do also sometimes wonder what Lily was planning when she mentioned wanting to rewrite the series, before discontinuing it and pretending she never made it at all. I would bet money on the fact that if she didn't have to worry about her critics, she absolutely would've rewritten the series and probably also made even more degenerate shit than the vomit-inducing crap she already had made.
I'm sure she might secretly get pissed when people criticize those fics, since she is a sore loser that is incapable of taking criticism. But since she has to pretend she didn't make it, she can't voice that offense at the way people regard the series. And you know what, Lily? I hope you feel angry. Because that anger pales in comparison to the sheer disgust and horror that anyone who's read those fics feels.
