remember that thing your mom said in your teen years that was just a throw-away remark to her, but it changed your relationship and opinion of her forever? I made the mistake of telling my daughter I never consume fanfic/fic of any kind and she was so quietly, calmly disappointed in me.
I'm open to it . . . but I'm probably not going to be an easy woo. She sent me some stuff that was like very funny Gen Z parody, socialist themed Ronald McDonald slashfic and I was like helllppp I can't read this it has licensed characters in and it's makin' me feel all squirmy
To be fair that sounds like something that a century ago would have run in some political magazine. Not exactly my specific fandom wheelhouse but something still pretty storied.
