Oh I was saying that people view the art created by the artist to be the artist. Like they are capable of living the lives they portray.

Like I came across a comic series where H.P. was the protagonist and it made him out to be some edgy defender against the occult horrors he wrote about. Think I've seen something similar with Poe, maybe a movie? I hate that so much.

Don't insert those guys into those scenarios, they both would probably shit their pants and die immediately if they encountered what they wrote.
