I high key think this author is dead or at least not coming back because there’s been zero account activity for 5+ years

I would try contacting the writer to ask if it’s ok. They might be lurking. Might have abandoned the fic thinking no one wants to read it.

I think it’ll do more good than any harm, other readers will thank you and it’ll only be a problem if the author comes back from the dead to ask you not to :)

It’s a very good story, and it inspired me to write something with a similar set up (same characters, same au) but with a different plot (story left unfinished before main plot hit)

I know there’s the inspired by button, but I feel icky posting something that’s heavily inspired without permission first

I’ve already commented on a few of their unfinished fics. Not about continuing the story though
