Yeah, I can see that could sometimes genuinely happen - something sparks a tangent, and you just keep going because you don't have another forum for talking to this person in.
This person I'm talking about is doing stuff like, "oh hey, how did that exam end up going for you today?" Where it's obvious that they have the kind of relationship where they COULD be talking to someone about this stuff outside of ao3, but they just keep on chattering there... And doing it a lot... That's fluffing to me.
