Things That Will Make Me Skip Over Your Story:
    or at least wish i had.


1. you consistently misspell things/names/places, and your language use makes me stop and groan more than once in two paragraphs or so. there are many things that annoy me with style, but purple prose and attempts to use big words without really knowing how will get me every time.

2. you refer to someone as "the platinum-haired slytherin" more than once, followed up by "the messy-haired gryffindor", "the red-haired best friend" or perhaps "the large, glassy body of water". and yes, i read it anyway if i'm bored, but man, will i resent you.

3. most likely, if you say this story takes place post-hogwarts, in the muggle world, or involves mpreg (heh). unless i know your writing from other fics. but in general, adults bore me in hp. and if they -are- adults, it better be h/d, that's all i'm sayin'.

4. draco/ron or draco/snape and all hp het besides ron/hermione by silvia. unless i love you. -and- you ask. in general, will not read lucius/snape, most snapeslash in general, weasleycest or malfoycest, or all other sundry slash pairings unless i know you (ie, won't read marcus/oliver unless i know the author very well).

5. i will avoid PG fics unless i know you. not like i -need- smut, but pg fic means more juvenile themes than i'm looking for. so.

6. nice!draco or apologetic!draco. kill him. KILL HIM NOW. PLEASE. I AM BEGGING YOU.

    i am a plebe, ahahahaha, but so is tom!! the latest video of him that ivy linked to just... erm... inspired me. this is probably the one and only time (thank gahd) i'll go all out with tom felton love like this, but hey. grab it while it lasts. (though tell me if you do just 'cause i'm curious like that.)




~~

also. the cuteness of remus/sirius was killing me. but it didn't quite kill me -dead- until i found canis m's fanart (not to mention her fanfic, heh). this and this *melts*
    and yes, everyone is better at the hp character meme than me, but i don't mind. *worships [livejournal.com profile] kitsune13 along with trin & SF*

With you on that, yo. I like MWPP in teenage/early 20s form and I like my present!kids to be still in school. Speculation of post-war, five, ten or fifty years in the future doens't interest me in the least. Unless it's written by someone I like and know and love and trust. Or it's Snitch!. Cause, then, yeah.

Awww, but who doens't enjoy a good bout of the "raven-haired boy reaching timidly over to gently touch the silver-haired Slytherin Seeker's neck"? Bwaahaha!

gack! gack! evil! evil! back! ><;;
though it'd be fun to do a parody of a story like that, though it might scar me for life to write it -.-

see, i wouldn't -mind- adults, if they were immature, dorky, silly adults (exhibit: snitch!). everyone makes adults so... angstily sober. *shudders* enough to put one off growing up forever. *laughs*

Dude, y'know?? I love doing parodies, but in this fandom? I'm kinda afraid. There's just so much material, I'll either end up making some 150-part WIP that I actually start to love...or it just won't make any sense. *snicker*

Snitch!. Definitely the wonderful exception when it comes to adult!fics. Yes, precious.

hey now. write h/d! any excuse will do!
"Write H/D -
it's good for your Country -
It's good for your Soul"

also-- i want to see the fic that goes with the strap-ons... i mean, boots. i mean, goggles.
ahahaha. it could have cliches-- i mean, obviously they're right back from a hacking operation and/or a muggle dance-club.
ripe 150-chapter wip material >:D<
