just like all those other parentheticals

Dear Badfic Writers,

Brackets ({}) and square brackets ([]) have their own purposes. They are not just a pair of parentheses dressed up in their own very special and unique snowflake outfits for when you are writing a story and it doesn't seem special enough with plain punctuation.

Thanks for your attention to this matter,
cim

Yeah, I think the proper punctuation for telepathy is still pretty much up to the individual author... although I really wish they wouldn't use single quotes.
