YMMV / Other People's Business

Go To

  • Broken Base:
    • Mostly having to do with Collin's marriage to Leon.
    • There was also a pretty heated argument in the commentary over Danny's son calling his stepmother "Mommy." The appropriateness of Reina not correcting him seemed to be the major issue.
  • Draco in Leather Pants: Leon has this kind of thing going on. Despite the author's assertions that he's a nasty piece of work, fan consensus seems to be "sexy, dangerous family man," making him one of the most popular and squeed over characters in the comic. Later arcs reveal his nasty side, preventing Leon from becoming a Villain Sue, but even torture-murder has not lessened his popularity.
  • Les Yay: The creator herself admits to see chemistry between Hilary and Danny. While Hilary would probably be open to the idea, Danny (as of yet) seems quite contentedly heterosexual.
  • Moral Event Horizon: Bart crossed it for many readers when he uses a young man's love for his cancer-stricken mother as leverage to manipulate him. For some (but not all) readers, Leon has crossed it with his treatment of his husband, despite the author's assurances of consent.
  • Nightmare Fuel: As the author points out, the conversation Leon has with his daughter is just eerie. Especially because he seems to actively remind her to love him more than Collin.
  • The Woobie: "I wonder...if Fox exists solely for [us] to feel bad for him."
