In EP8, there is a scene where Featherine/Ikuko is swapping between the meta and allegedly real worlds with Ange, and Ange has trouble deciding which name to call her by. Ikuko tells her that calling her "Featherine" in the "real" world is like calling an actress by the name of a role she's finished playing. What does the fantasy stance make of that?

Featherine is roleplaying Ikuko who is roleplaying Piece-Featherine. :P

At any rate, if you start from the premise that Ikuko/Featherine is a magical witch, you still have the parts where Ikuko claims to be the author of the games, making Beato at least partially her character. There's also the Our Confession booklet, which showed Beato having pretty much all of the attitudes Ikuko/Featherine expresses about her writing and readers in EP6. You end up with Featherine creating Meta-Beatrice or using her as a piece, which is functionally equivalent to Ikuko authoring her.

Well, if you want to go the FANTASY route, authoring someone doesn't necessarily mean the same as creating/embodying them. See: The entire Ushiromiya family and whoever is writing them at the time.
