Wait a minute.
This ISN'T fan fiction written by one of the characters in the comic itself?! How can this...
Wait. If a character in the comic writes fiction about other characters in the comic, is that fan fiction, or is that just them weirdly writing stuff about their friends?
...
Note to self: Have someone do that in the future, but change the character names so it's apparent they don't realize what they're doing and/or are trying to hide it.
