Munchies, I agree with you in general about revenge stories. But there are exceptions. See my story Fat Justice. Hope you like it.
Munchies:
You will note that I am painting in broad strokes.
That said, I took a glace at your story and um ...
Are you sure you want me to explore the themes therein.
Because I can. I will be fair about it, but are you really sure you want me to do that?
Fatforfun:
I'm not looking for conflict, Munchies. Like I said, in general I agree with you. I just thought you might like to see an exception.
Munchies:
I'm not looking for conflict either. If I was, you'd have it already.
That said, having read what you wrote, I am not seeing any so-called exceptions. And while I am open to discussing it with you in a non-hostile way, I am pretty sure my thoughts will offend you.
Fatforfun:
[Maybe I misunderstood what you wrote. I thought that you were saying that revenges stories always end with the person who gets fat being rejected by society. My story has the person who got fat becoming a better person and accepted for that. That's the exception that I mean.]

Yeah, you did misunderstand. I said revenge weight gain stories have a typical beat, but variations exist. Your story is usual for the genre, with some mild variations. This is common when you are writing in any genre.
An exception would be something drastic that you never really see. For example, the person exacting revenge feels guilty and turns himself in, the revenge victim escapes, never to be seen again, or the person getting revenge is the villain, not the story's hero.
After all, what is a revenge weight gain story if not a power fantasy?
