Sooooo...

Here's a question. What's the weirdest thing one of your fans has ever done? Or, like, the weirdest piece of content you've ever found?

Because I just found there are bwitter accounts dedicated to trying to prove I'm not actually dating my girlfriend? I thought it was a joke but they're in like, a flame war with someone whose really into it... Like, I know I shouldn't be reading it, but I just can't look away.

[ oh, right, wait, also need to be responsible. ]

Oh, right, almost forgot. Hi, I'm Josh Foley. I work at De Chima General. If you've got weird medical needs or something you need fixed, I'm your dude.

I had a girl smuggle my work out of a gallery by pretending to be me. I mean, she was caught later, and we got it all back, at least, but the whole thing was weird.

Other than that... well, a lot of them think I'm the became-human-on-arrival type. So. There's that. And I'm certain they don't think I'm actually with my fiance, too.

Wish fulfillment is weird.

Seriously? [ that's... such a weird thing to just assume. ] What did they think you were before? And, wait, stole your stuff by pretending to be you? That's crazy!

[dragony]

Dragon. Or, like, whatever-my-world's approximate version of one would be. Obviously my hair is this color because that's what my scales used to look like, and all that.

It's not the worst rumor, really.

[goldtoxicity]

That's a really weird leap to make.

[ PEOPLE, MAN. ]

Um. Dare I ask?

[dragony]

It's... not entirely baseless. Of all possible guesses.

[ she's just NAMED dragon and can SUMMON dragons. small error. ]

But let's see... before I exPorted the first time, some people thought maybe I was actually the one bringing people here, since I was so different from everyone else. There's a bunch that still think I killed that guy I got framed for killing, even though he was already dead. [ She's not on camera, but she's tallying these off on her fingers. ] Uhm, dragon is most popular but regular alien is up there too. Serial killer, obviously. That I use my empathy to manipulate how other people feel, and that's the only reason Jaime "thinks" he likes me.

Though, that last sort seems to happen to everyone.

[goldtoxicity]

[ that's - that's a lot, holy shit. that's like x-men levels of baggage. ]

I'm sorry. That's - that's really shitty of them to just assume that of you.

[dragony]

It's alright. It comes and goes. I've been around for a lot longer than most people, even if I was gone a while, so they've had more time to talk. It doesn't really bother me, when it's just about me.

[goldtoxicity]

It's still shitty.

People making assumptions about you based on how "normal" you look and what your powers do. It sucks. I'm pretty sure junk like that is what makes supervillains in the first place.
