*looks down* I updated slash, I did. Prologue is here here. I know, Raven's Song was supposed to be my only slash, but... well, it was just so hard not to when the plotbunny came.

Also, Merc did a MST of a certain plagiarist. Tis here

We've both been naughty, as you can see.

Yikes, another anonymous comment. Please don't confuse me with either of the other two, the "plagiarist" and the first one. I don't particularly want to create a live journal account right now, but I'll be sure to end this with my name, e-mail address, ff.net username, and all other vital stats.

Anyway . . .

I realise this topic has been fairly wrung out by now, but I just had to say my piece.

Firstly, a question for the as-yet-unnamed apparent plagiarist: (I think you called yourself "AM"?) Just curious, but you know that doing what you did wasn't the best idea, right? But you were comfortable enough with the idea to a) admit in your A/N that you were wrong, and b) email Miss Cam to tell her. All I want to know is, why didn't you choose to email her, asking for permission first? Forgive my naivete here, but if you honestly felt your story would be significantly different, why not ask Meir Brin to do a spin-off of her spin-off of Miss Cam's spin-off of Tolkien's LOTR? There are some fandoms with two OFUs. There are thousands of options: you could do the equivalent of an MUSM, you could do from a different perspective, you could ask Meir Brin if you could work with her . . .

I mean, I get where you're coming from (please don't kill me, minions. I love Miss Cam's stuff and worship her but I can --slightly-- sympathize here); I've often wished myself that the Potter OFU hadn't been done (though Meir Brin did a fantastic job) myself. But why didn't you even bother to try and find out whether or not you could do a spin-off?
