Don't You Wish Your Viscountess Was Hot Like Her?

As always, many apologies if this flag has been here before. I really wouldn't be surprised if it has been and a vaguely remember having a conversation on whether Viscount was something that had made its way into Human nobility. And if she hasn't been, well...

Would You Like Some Prose With All That Purple? )

I vaguely recall a rather large shitstorm that happened with this character on RPL. I'd look for the post, but I'm a bit busy at the moment. There was something about this character being some kind of parody, and the person who played the character came and defended the crap out of it.

I can't really remember. I just remember being very tired after reading the RPL post about this character.

Also, there is no way that any of my characters would care enough about this person to examine them with any ounce of the detail listed here, parody/satire/bran muffin or not.

I can't believe this is parody, it just reads as something that's meant to be taken seriously. I might be remembering it from RPL. I'll have to go hunt it up.

I'm working my way through it now, but after reading the version posted on RPL and this one, I still don't think it's satire. Regardless of the author's repeated "It's satire and you're just too stupid to get it" argument, all I get out of it is someone using arguable literary devices as their bastion of butthurt.

I honestly got about a third of the way and then just started scrolling with glazed eyes.

Hey, at least you didn't participate in the comments.

I remember this fustercluck.

The only thing I got from that clusterfuck is the author saying "Well, if you guys don't get the satire, then obviously you're all just too dumb and it's totally not a problem with my sub-par writing skills!"

Sigh.

Oh man, I just went and re-acquainted myself with that post. Satire. Sure. Walking satire or not, none of my toons would be inclined to give a crap.
