Any of y'all ever had a blorbo who frequently gets tagged, and it's a coin flip as to whether they're a non-entity in the fic, perhaps even only being tagged because of a mention?

Well THIS USERSCRIPT — it's the best thing since sliced bread! Now I don't have to click into every fic with him tagged and ctrl + F for his name to determine whether he appears proportionately!

Once it's installed on Tampermonkey, you go to "Installed userscripts", click on the edit icon, and replace the terms with any words you want to have tallied in the fic. With mine, I deleted the other two terms and simply had it tally how many times "Sonic" appears in a given fic (in Smash Bros fics he does have some Bruce Banner syndrome going on, I've found)

Here's how it looks on a random fic!
