This is essentially why I didn’t figure it out until halfway through the fic. Fanfictions depart from canon in unpredictable ways, so there’s no point in saying “well it’s like this in canon” when you already have major departures.
Huh, noted. FWIW, I went in having not read the originals before, so when I went back through and read the originals, around Ch. 30, it seemed like a lightbulb going off when I saw how things were set up in the original.
Still, you’d think “it was in the original” would result in at least a high prior probability.
