upset that the novel i’ve started working on can be summarized as “this 30 year old twink is a virgin and real horny but also hates capitalism”

TBH there are few quotes as illuminating of human nature as "if you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, then you're the asshole." All of the nasty people I’ve ever known have been convinced they’re surrounded by nastiness, and that it’s not them that’s the problem, it’s everyone else. Having a persecution complex does nothing but make you miserable, as well as everyone else around you.

It’s always interesting to me how overall fic quality in a fandom can be different depending on the pairing, as well as character personalities. Like, if you ship Character A/Character B, A is written as gruff and withdrawn, but if you’re reading Character A/Character C, suddenly A is super charming and playful. And the difference will be carried over for 90% of fics.
