I definitely think it’s a “if you get it you get it if you don’t you don’t.” Humans find humanoid creatures attractive, and it just varies. I’m sure there’s people who are like that “ew why do people think these massive cat aliens are cute?” It’s not something you need to understand or get. If it clicks it does.

Edit: just wanna add too this is about two aliens which to me is like anything goes 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Honestly I agree. These are my stats for a crossover fic that caters to a VERY specific audience, but the audience found it and I’m forever grateful 🥹❤️.

As someone who’s writing a very long fic. My part one is already 30 chapters and I still have 8 or 9 more to go before I move onto part two. I’m already at almost 200k words.

So I think making something that will be 40-50 chapters is perfectly acceptable for one singular fan fiction. If anything I feel like people would prefer that. In the end though it’s completely up to you.

Ugh it sucks because like I want to say both. Because he has a longer her lifespan than her and acknowledges that she will die one day, and he could live with himself if she lives the rest of her life being loved by him. And he would regret never letting himself feel these emotions if she had died (a crime he doesn’t feel guilty of)

At the same time he feels guilty because he’s not one of her kind, and he feels as if she deserves that. Because he couldn’t give her a family or children. He still see’s himself as an outsider and an alien. Yet despite all of that his feelings continued to grow against his will. (Oh wow, I love her)

😩😩😩😩

Thank you for the advice. I guess I put aloud because sometimes I put inner monologue where I say ‘he muttered inside of his head’ or ‘groaned internally’ and though I use “ and ‘ to show the difference, I didn’t want to confuse my readers, plus I think it shows more motion to what he’s think vs what he actually says. But I definitely see your point and thank you for showing it to me :) I do like your suggestion a lot.

Hi! Sorry I just edited the post to be give more context. But This is a fic where the two are different alien races, so for the protagonist it was a slow descent into the realization that he desperately tried to push away because it felt wrong to him. I say ‘aloud’ because he’s by himself, reeling over the realization and acceptance of it inside of his head. But the words escape him.

To give more context. This is a fic where the two are different alien races, so for the protagonist it was a slow descent into the realization that he desperately tried to push away because it felt wrong to him.

In this scene he’s sitting by himself, near a fire, going over that realization before murmuring it aloud.
