      Imagine thinking you’re a better writer and better at world building than JKR, it’s laughable, honestly.

      The majority of teenagers writing Harry Potter fanfiction in the hiatus after Goblet of Fire were better writers and ESPECIALLY better worldbuilders than JKR

      Which is why it was so damn common in Potter fandom for people to pick up on some bit of fan-invented lore as actually being canon -- because it made so much more sense -- and then be disappointed it wasn't actually

      An example? There’s no fan-invented lore? Because people in the fandom up until recently has the respect not to think they’re better than the writer. If they’re such good writers then, why are they piggybacking off of JK’s incredible world building?

      Oh honey, no. Several of Shakespeare's plays were basically fanfic. Doesn't make them less good. And then several 19th century composers wrote operas that were overtly fanfic of Shakespeare.

      Yes but saying that those composers were better at creating that story than Shakespeare is mad - he made the story. That’s what I was getting at with the “fanfic shows better world building than the original”

      Yes but the composers aren’t credited with making the story. What they did was essentially an adaptation and while they may be better, they’re not responsible for building that world or making the original story.

      You act like this is a hard line and it really isn't Like you were just told Shakespeare didn't really invent stories either, as opposed to adapting them

      I simply dispute your claim that fanfic writers can be better world builders than the original author. Yes, their stories, plots, characters may be fantastic and surpass the original, but the actual building of the world can’t be better than the original, as they didn’t create it

      Lol the "world" isn't a real existing thing, especially in the case of a famously vague series like Harry Potter Fanfic is defined by using the *names* of stuff in the original book, not by objectively taking place "in the same world" (often in fact it clearly doesn't)
