In Which Kala Is *Ahem* Petulant...

[kalalanekent]

Have you ever had one of those moments in your fic that you thought was brilliant, which much planned ahead, and a handful of people either misunderstand it or down-right scorn it even though they have no idea where it's headed?  

No, no, it's no one here and present, but it seems that the reveal to the Richana, subtle as it is and will be built on more heavily in the next few chapters, has made several people vocal with their displeasure. And that just hurts. I'd like to think that all of you have come far enough with us to trust us just a little. I'm going to blow a secret here and say that it's essential to the plot and everyone knows we explain our reasoning eventually, but it's already being ranted about. Have you ever know me not to have a reason for doing something? Grrrrr... Reminds me of how some people got about the Richana when it first started. And look how that's caught on....

*throws brickbats in irriation*

Why do I feel like a crabby, spoiled six-year-old who can't be understood? *sigh*

*huge hugs*!!!!

I think it was really just that one guy that was being nitpicky and grumbly about the reveal. And what a tacky first post for the Planet. >_< I only didn't say anything, hoping he would catch on that you can't act like that, and of course realizing he would be reading my fic, too, eventually.

I also don't think Vanna meant anything negative with her comments. Like she said, she didn't realize all the aspects of the situation, mainly because she's read so many fics. And really, going this long, you do tend to forget who knows what in what fic. Heck, I'm guilty of that in my own story! O_O

Anyway, you know I trust your judgment on the reveal there. I actually thought it made perfect sense to do it there, when it became clear that Lois and Supes had that strong connection. How could they have *not* seen it? :p

*hugs again*

Just keep writing, and the detractors will be forced to shut up. ^_^

*Groan* I didn't want you to see this one, Ella. It's just that things at BT lately... I just get so frustrated over there to begin with, what with jed and some of the commentary lately. And I'm sure Vanna doesn't mean to upset, but she gets very vocal when she doesn't like things (she's done so more than once).

Maybe I'm just being whiney. I don't know.
