When you try to help a writer · 5:31pm Dec 4th, 2020
reading an interesting story but has a big weakness. Twilight is OOC as a jerk to the stories MC with very little reason shown. they say the Elements destroyed and the princesses beaten which they show but they also say alot of Ponyville residents died but they don't SHOW it so we are to believe on just that Twilight is at the point where she can; kidnap a human, blast their arm off in the process, accidently merged them with another being so unlikely to ever return home and not even once feel guilt about doing it. in fact she gets pissy because he isn't eager to help her kind. Hell she is given another beign to help and treats him like dirt. note this story is canon to show till this point and would you accept Twilight acting like this over the bare bones i mentioned? The author refuses to see this as an issue. he doesn't like flashbacks and claimed I want him to completely change his story. i am not just give us more on why Twilight acts this way for it can turn readers away that would otherwise like the story.
so frustrating
I would not see Twilight behave like that, if anything you're just trying to help him better his story but he's being a prick about it.
Sounds like he just wants someone to fix his grammar and not someone who agrees or disagrees with his OOC fic. The person is probably a Twilight hater (I seen enough bashing on a particular character in Sailor Moon and Ranma fics in my time) so my advice is to just fix the grammar let him post his OOC story and either walk away or stay and watch the downvotes start to pile up and laugh.

i am not doing grammer stuff. I SUCK at that. but story idea I am good at
He's the idiot, you're right. You're not asking him to change the story, just for him to change Twilight to stop acting like a borderline psychopath. I don't think I've ever read a story here where the main characters or princesses kidnap someone, cause permanent damage, merge/ transform them in any way, and demand they help without so much as a promise or apology.

I am not even asking him to change Twilight just show the events that made her that way.

That's not changing the story either, that's adding explanations for why she's a bitch.

exactly the story is about 5 maybe 6 chapters in and she has been a bitch since 2 and has gotten worse.
Usually in my experience stories like this are made because either
A. The Author hates the character
B. The Author has anger issues and uses writing to try to get those feelings out
C. Some combo of A and B.
Sorry, you had to go through that, hope your next experience in helping another writer goes better.
On another note "Love Seriously" might have inspired me to do a fic similar to it among other MLP ideas I've had recently.

Then just sit back and watch as the fic burns in the fires of downvotes

nice to know
Some just can't take serious criticism on their work. If Twilight did that shit to me she would soon be having a broken horn and one wing ripped off for her impertinence. I've seen her major OCD and at times Manic episodes. Sometimes I think Spike needs to Gibbs slap her a lot to make her see when she's doing a Stupid.
Ah, man, so Ron the Death Eater because...? I don't get the why going with that direction.
