turps

I know, right? I love the idea of both.

I've always wanted a well written eating disorder fic. Or cutting, any of those self abusing tropes. The problem is, the only people that tend to write them are the badfic writers and they do so with purple prose and really bad writing, which means those topics end up being mocked by a lot of people.

Mikey's the obvious person for something like that, but I think with careful writing it could be applied to Bob too, how he dropped so much weight after joining the band.

I've wasted days of my life to 8902792 part badfic epics. Stories where the only resemblance to the people I know are the names and full of epithet and grammar issues that make me cringe. But they deal with my bullet proof kinks and so I'm helpless in my need to read.

I like your conclusion!
