Why is it so hard to get this guy's fic?!

OK, I don't get it, JY wins the 2024 popularity poll and yet the most popular pairing is Aventurine/Dr. Ratio?!

Why?!

Fandom, FFS, what are y'all doing?!

Edit: I am highly amused that Argenti squeezed into the top 8. Less amused at Blade's ridiculously high rank. Have to say I'm a bit surprised by Kafka's high ranking.

Meanwhile, this guy agrees with me that 骁卫 is second-in-command only to the general. Glad I'm not completely barking up the wrong tree.

Additionally, the sequence of events is slightly clearer. Jingliu was sent to protect Dan Feng in the battle against Shuhu... Wow, Dan Feng must feel like crap... (Also, apparently Jing Yuan was not yet promoted during battle against Shuhu. There's apparently a document where Jing Yuan noted his first job as general was cleaning up the Imbibitor Lunae mess, meaning he got promoted in the midst of battle, which is also presumably when the previous general died. Man, piecing together this timeline is difficult.)

I mean, fair enough I doubt the casual majority are bothering with writing fanfic either. But my general feeling is the writing part of fandom definitely just ignores the characters and write their own original fantasy then slapping the faces on after the fact. At this point, tho', I wonder what is even the point of fanfic. Might as well just write original fic. ಥ_ಥ

And this is why I'm leaning toward music videos more and more...
