Default Would you be resentful and envious of your Protege getting a Grammy before you? :/

In my Music Fan Fiction story, my Protagonist, the young Axl Rose of Guns N'Roses manages a band called Cake Cream, who he feels is 2022's Guns N'Roses. Cake Cream is well on their way to becoming more successful than Guns N'Roses, Cake Cream is just that good. In fact, they were already up for New Artist Grammy Award for 2022. Axl pointed out that Guns N'Roses weren't up for New Artist Grammy Award until two years after their Debut Album. Axl mentioned feeling resentful, angry, and envious that his Protege, Cake Cream is already up for New Artist Grammy Award when his band, Guns N'Roses never got a Grammy. It doesn't help that Axl suggested they celebrate Cake Cream being up for New Artist Grammy Award at a Restaurant and..... At the Restaurant, NOBODY wanted Axl's autograph. Fans only wanted Cake Cream autographs. Oof. :/ I mentioned Axl felt even MORE resentful, angry, and envious of Cake Cream. His conscience told him he should be proud of his Protege being a successful band, not angry, envious, and resentful of Cake Cream. Would you be envious, resentful and angry if you were in Axl's position? :/ Or would you be proud?

I don't think I would be resentful. In fact, I'd probably go to the studio and write a bunch of angry songs.

In real life, I suspect Axl would be happy to not be hounded by fans. Just saying...

In my Fan Fiction, I wrote often how Axl would REALLY react in the real world, like when my Fictional Axl punched a Paparazzi Person in his face and broke his camera after the Paparazzi Person kept snapping pictures of him and following him without his permission even after he warned him to stop. I was thinking,"This is exactly what Axl Rose would really do in real life!

I incorporated real world Axl's deep loyalty to his Friends into my Fictional Axl Rose story such as when he refused to admit in Court that he was living with Cake Cream during his time as a Fugitive (He turned to Cake Cream when the Paparazzi Person pressed Assault and destruction of property charges against him for punching him in the face and breaking his Camera. The Axl and Paparazzi alteration was caught on camera no pun intended, and went viral, hence Cake Cream hiding him in their house.

My Fictional Axl also gave Cake Cream condoms, spermicides and lubricants telling them that Female Fans would be throwing themselves at them and sex with Female Fans would be tempting and if they do decide to have sex with Female Fans, they'd need protection from STD's and Fatherhood. One of Cake Cream Members admitted he was actually into Male Fans not Female Fans, and Axl told him he'd still need to protect himself from STD's even if he had sex with only Males. I also wrote that Axl warned them not to have sex with Underaged Fans as jail time and a sex offender record weren't worth it. I wrote what advice I think real life Axl would give to his Protege.

But there are some things I wrote that real life Axl doesn't do such as the constant lying my Fictional Axl Rose does. Axl claimed he wasn't Axl Rose but was a guy named Michael Randall Johnson who was born in 1997. He even had a fake ID that said exactly that. He straight up lied in Court when he claimed he wasn't with Cake Cream during his time as a Fugitive and was living alone on the streets. (Perjury) Axl in real life is honest and wouldn't run around lying constantly. I also had Fictional Axl hide in an upper vent and a hidden crawl space when Authorities searched Cake Cream's house looking for him. I remember thinking if Axl reads this story he might be offended I had him hiding in an upper vent and a hidden crawl space like a trapped rat! LMAO!

Interesting stuff.

I suggested going back to write angry songs, as anger/depression seem to sell in the real world. I guess I now have to listen to Get In The Ring!

Axl's songs already sound aggressive and angry even when he's not being aggressive or angry. I remember hearing that Axl got mad and tried to walk off stage, but the Producer locked him in and Axl had no choice but to stay and sing and he was pissed off while singing and it actually sounded good and Axl implied that he was happy that the Producer locked him in! LMAO!
