The not quite so triumphant return of Victoria Bitter.
In which we discover that VB is the writer of a very popular HP fanfic, and *GASP* is planning a con for fans of said fic to get together. By con, I mean "convention" and not "swindle" although, who knows, it could be one and the same again.
Did you know that VB, in his/her* new fandom persona, has "fought with three different paramilitias", "never thought about an ideal job outside of the military", "has a heart condition that gives me less than ten years to live", and is super chivalrous: "Even after coming nearer than I ever have to being destroyed by a woman I loved for almost seven long years, even after she took my son from me without so much as a goodbye and left me destitute for someone she'd been seeing behind my back, I still hold no grudge against womankind."
All these fun facts and more to be had here. Deleted, but screencapped here, and html here.
(Look, I know there's no wank yet, but it's VB and Turimel, so let's take a nice stroll down memory lane.)
*am not sure if VB is actually trans or if IDing as male is part of the scam, so covering my bases here. ETA, again: Okay, folks, I've been away the whole day, and I've got back to an exploding inbox, and I haven't had the chance to go through the whole thing, but I wanted to address this issue.
I was trying to err on the side of caution in regards to past actions, but doesn't matter if I'm unsure or not, using female pronouns or referring to VB/thanfiction as "s/he" "it" or "s/h/it" is disrespectful and hurtful to other transfolk, and I apologize for this. I'm sorry that my choice of pronouns has cause people distress.
So please stick to the male pronouns. Regardless of if this is VB's identity or just another grift, it stands less of a chance of hurting people if you use the male pronouns.
Also, anons, tread carefully. I turned anon commenting on so everyone could play, so let's not ruin it, okay?
ETA, ONCE AGAIN: Anon commenting is off. And please read this. Thank you, white_serpent.
Male pronouns, please. No more transfail, thanks.
ETA: Oh boo, beat to the punch. Sorry, folks.
ETA #2: Other post deleted! Have fun here. Also, anon commenting is ON, since there was an anon at wank_report who seemed to have more details on this.
ETA: #3: More links, from the comments (thank you, lovely wankas!):
