Hey...just wanted to let you know that I'm totally not stalking you and PitFTW messaged me today:

I'm so so so very sorry! I did read your fic a very long time ago and memorized the ictalized parts because i thought it was so poetic. When i was writing that, i remembered those words and kept trying to remember where they came from. When i failed to remember, i just wrote the fic and left it at that. As soon as i can get to an actual computer, i will write an author's note. (i am on my phone now) Again, i'm really, REALLY sorry!!!

Basically, her excuse is that she memorized my fic and regurgitated it, basically word-for-word, three years later because it was omg that good. Not that I believe a word that she says, but what can you do -- she's a twelve-year-old on the internet.

Thanks so much for giving me a heads up on this whole ridiculousness. Hopefully it'll all get sorted out in the end...I'm hoping she comes away from this a little red-faced and we both move on with our lives.

I'm not upset, by the way. I found this whole thing sort of hilarious, especially considering the 'caliber' of PitFTW's writing.

THAT BEING SAID, you are straight up awesome. Do you mind if I add you?
