TV show has the basis of my story... poopy

That's good to hear. Then you won't mind if I suggest you think before you throw around untrue speculations about someone's thread.

Ye i don't see the problem. Tropes are good because people look for them.

you could go my route which is to do things no one dose like "kindly young soul adopts withered grump war veteran" which is basically the opposite of this trope and also something that people prob don't do often nor look for.

Trust me. being tropey is good, originality only buries you.

"withered grump war veteran" LOL good one. There's actually no way to avoid this kind of thing, I know and like I said, I've not watched either show (being firmly intrenched in my C-drama stuff) but I do try to stay away from current popular things thus my late night disgruntled rant. Alas the guy in this story is only 29.

Thanks for the laugh.

Good point, I was also going to say that lots of readers love stuff that closely resembles big stories. I mean, that’s why I didn’t abandoned my story just put it on the back burner. Because it has as much or more chances to thrive as the story constructed to specifically be as non-standard as possible.

that could have comedic potential......

Yes, of course. Total rip off.

I like to see it more as if my story ends up a little like another more popular story, maybe that just means it's marketable?

If anyone knows the original artist to this take please tell me because I stare at this every time I have one of these moments.
