Clearly they are unicorns. Or lying for cred. Or just practicing for the big leagues. Or something. It's different. :\ TBH, I'm pretty sure all the people who complain about fanfic have never read more than one fic that was shown to them as proof that All Fanfic Sucks twenty years ago.

(For the record, I'm being massively sarcastic and do not actually think Male Fanfic Writers are fake, lying, etc. Because sarcasm and the internet do not do well together.)
