I do remember you talking about those non-romantic duos, so yay for your faves winning!!
That is good when people are engaging with a fic. I would have a very different reaction to getting comments like that on my fics though.
Actually, can I get your opinion about something? A commenter asked if I would be interested in writing a fic featuring two characters as a ship, when they're just friends in the fic I'm still posting. I assumed this person had a story already in mind and was looking for a writing partner, so I responded by saying, "Sorry, I can't write with a partner. Good luck finding one though!"
Now, I'm wondering if they were making a request. Because. Well, the answer still would've been "No," I don't take requests, I write fics to silence my existing plot bunnies, I can't take on someone else's. But, is that a thing in the fanfic community? I guess it depends on the fandom, but I haven't had that happen before.
