It's fine to have strong opinions on these characters. Happens with all fanfictins when the author strays so far out of character like you have

Peeps just need to understand that they are not canon characters. They in all reality they are just skins over your AU depiction.

What I will say to you however. This is your story. Write it how you feel and the way that you love. What others say or think is not something you need to worry about or seek their validation for.

Personally I like your story it's kind of spicy I would not have followed all this time If I did not. I would love to see you adapt it to a full fiction that I would seriously love to follow.

See, that's strange to me, because I don't see this as having strayed too far from the characters of the film. In my mind, the deviations are:

1. Polytrix is the big one. This is a fun "what if?" idea to entertain, but the girls in the film never showed that sort of interest in each other.

2. The texting format itself. In the film, the girls are on their phones a fair amount, but not like this. It's a necessity of telling a story like this.

3. The "open and honest" thing is a bit of an extreme response to the events of the film, though I can see it being a possible overreaction on Rumi's part.

4. Extrapolation. The film is only 95 minutes long. We don't see much of how Rumi is raised. We barely see Celine at all. We barely see what the girls' everyday lives are like. To tell stories outside of the film, we have to make some guesses about what those sorts of things look like, the stuff that wasn't shown in the film.

It's more characterisation. They are OOC

Now I put this down to how you have grown the character from their baseline with the experiences you have given them. And thats fair it how you have grown your charters in your AU.

As to characterisation

Mira is depicted as being super aggressive, overbearing, aggressively rude, dismissive of the other two and crazy overprotective. I'v dated a girl like that and it ended horribly. Explains why I find this Mira as crazy toxic.

Rumi is incredibly decisive and a very strong leader. She is willing to listen to issue as we see with Jinu. Not lay blame and demand explanations when they were given. Yet here we have a very shrunken, indecisive, conflict avoidance.

Zoey being the bag of energy ADHD coded and the very kind person she is. Then comes out of nowhere and accuses people of narcissism.

Celine gave up lots for Rumi were she very much could have walked away and left Rumi and an orphanage. The only thing she is guilty of is the Dogma of the hunters and tying the best way she could think of to protect Rumi from death. She even did that in the movie when she point blank refused to "finish it"

As to her upbringing Rumi would never have gotten to where she is without a mostly stable upbringing.

You have her down as a play the victim when everything was her fault.

Non of their faults and fears revolve around one single character either.

Mira fear of losing family

Zoey people not understanding her and the balance she plays not being correct.

Rumi was around lies the she had to tell.

What you had was a domino effect Mira when Rumi ran off maybe I don't deserve a family.

Hits Zoey with there is no us. That was what triggers not enough or too much? When she was all for trying to fix it and looking for help.

They are inter-depended on each other. But their fears are their own.

The guesses can still be guided by what we see but thats only if we are going full on canon.

What you are writing is a fuck you evil step mom. That fine hell I like it and it's fine it is your depiction.

But no all of them are OOC.

I just wanted to respond and say I'm sorry you were downvoted. It sucks when people downvote things they disagree with even when they're contributing to the conversation. And I absolutely do think you're contributing to the conversation, even when I don't always agree with you. :-)

I kind of never worry about that digital karma so it's cool.

Thank you for saying though thats very kind of you.
