not to jump on the bandwagon but honestly, i don't get it either. and honestly i feel like this is one of the very few things that is starting to change for the better, is this weird possessiveness over certain fcs that used to be a lot more common.
like i remember one time i asked a relatively well known person in the community at the time just for the name of the fc they were using bc i thought it was a pretty fc. and the way this person immediately accused me of
stealing their character for asking for the name of the fc? like bro i
promise i don't care about your character. i just think the fc is cool and have an idea of my own for it.
i dunno, i just assume if someone also wants to use the same fc i have, that that is the case. hell, i might even be
more inclined to try and plot with you because they have the same fc. here, take the icons i've had for this fc since 2009. let chaos reign, baby.
