Series Notes:
Before you read anything I write, ficwise for Worm, a few things to bear in mind:
While I don't intend to (and won't) write stories where everything is nice and easy and simple, nothing I write will be as prone to bleakness or 'things getting regularly worse' as Worm. Things will, in the long run, tend to be better though of course bad things will happen. I am neither capable of nor interested in matching Wildbow's penchant for (well written) bleak and 'it gets worse'-ness in his stories. It is not fair to say that's all Worm is, but it is a large part of it.
For the purposes of my fics, the text of Ward, and Wildbow's many WoGs are only as canon as I want them to be (and I will be picking and choosing from both as I desire). I will be treating the full text of Worm as canon - allowing for differences as appropriate if the fic is an AU. That said, my interpretation of the canon and the characters therein (including personality, motivations, how they'd react in situations they didn't face in canon, etc) may not line up with yours. If you are someone who has a very rigid 'this is the only single acceptable interpretation of [Insert Character Name Here]' view, and my interpretation doesn't line up with yours, you may end up having a bad time with my stuff. Back button is right there.
Likewise, some people have very narrow views of what is acceptable expansions to canon (i.e. information that isn't in the text, but the text doesn't contradict either). I don't tend to have such a view, so again if you have such a rigid view, you may not enjoy my fic. Back button remains there.
All that said, no one is perfect, and I may get things wrong, or fail to adequately develop my points, etc, so polite critique or the like, even if your critique rooted in details from the WoGs or Ward, will always be listened to, though I may not ultimately agree with you. It's not as if I'm aware of every WoG Wildbow ever spun.
People who try to give me grief over writing choices rooted in the points above, decide to act as the 'Fanfic Police' over my interpretations, or who just declare that I'm just 'writing TINO' or 'Woobie Amy' or the like, without consideration that maybe my interpretation just isn't the same as yours shall be ruthlessly mocked or ignored, per my discretion and mood.
If you want to discuss my views re: Ward and the WoGs as related to my fic-writing, etc, feel free to do so in a comment on one of my fics, or hit me up on my tumblr(s): Kyliafanfiction or got-into-worm-by-mistake.
