>Jessica's awful views of her friends are ignored, forgiven, and lavished in praise

This really feels like Taeshi saying "fuck you, audience". Especially with the whole fanfic and oh-em-gee bit.

To which I say Fuck you too, Taeshi. This chapter sucks, and exemplifies several of the worst problems with your writing: the asshole gets away with everything scot-free via gaslighting and emotional manipulation, David exists, characters accepting being bullied in the name of "friendship", resetting interesting developments for no reason, characters suddenly being stupid, and your garbage sense of humor. Deus-ex-machina-ing your asshole characters Lucy, Paulo, Jessica, Augustus out of the consequences of their own actions isn't funny, it just sucks, especially when contrasted with the way you pour the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune upon other characters.
