I have such a soft spot for confièrent put together characters who actualy LIKE themselves!! And take care of themselves!! It’s always really nice to read because in most fics I read the mc is always super self sacrificing and sad - which can be done super well but I’ve always always preferred when the mc actually is confident. Which is part of why I adore bil, thank so much for sharing the fic! Infinite kudos ❤️❤️❤️

aw don't be so unfair to the crusties and dusties of the world lmao

=

different MCs for different stakes. if those fics are for more intense narratives, then it makes sense and someone like SI!Kagami would seem incongruous or more like a parody.

where as they live in civilized society in BIL and have access to running water, and the only hard stakes is if they lose (the basketball executioner gets 'em) they might have to deal with Clown Gloating. Or it's a coin-toss every week whether SI!Kagami will trigger Moonlit Madness on his captain and end up waterboarded in the showers.

i appreciate your appreciation, thank you ✌

#inquiry #Anonymous #on bil #you gotta think about the fics you read #it's... uh... like this example someone wrote about the superspy genre and teen superspy media #if we're doing realistic spy stuff then it can never work bc only the most fucked up people are actually good at espionage #all disbelief must be suspended for the camp of superspyhood #so back out and think like; what are those Other Fics doing? they serious? #it then takes a certain type of person/character to succeed in that narrative #then again anything can (usually) work given implementation but your leeway of 'success' (how did you convey it to your readers) narrows #i just think you got a few things crossed up in your suppositions is all
