Likes & dislikes in fic (or the entry where I went on and on):

[capitu]

I've been wanting to do one of these since birdsofshore and firethesound made theirs. And then gracerene did the Snowflake challenge and challenged people to make them; I went ahead and made mine, too. I blame them.

Likes, dislikes and everything in between. I warn you, I went MAD. Seriously. I'm ridiculous. ^^

"But I do love 8th year, too. It's just, yeah, just by this much *tiny space between thumb and index finger* I like Post Hogwarts better."
↑ Ditto to that! ♥

thigh sex (intergluteal sex)
↑ Wait, isn't thigh sex intercrural? And intergluteal would be the asscrack? xD? Or were you saying you like both intercrural and intergluteal sex?

"just like sometimes I run into something that includes something I love and just didn't do it for me, sometimes I read something that is not on my top favourite list that drove me crazy"
↑ Ahhh, that's a good way to put it. I mean, I definitely have some hard squicks (I can't say I've ever liked infidelity in a fic - open relationships, yes, but infidelity, no), but I've read super depressing fics with major character death that I loved, even if they broke my heart and I can't reread it and would never prompt it. :P

I think eidheann_writes summarized this post/your likes and dislikes perfectly. xD

[capitu]

They're not the same?? Oh, oh! They're not! Well, you're right though, I like both so I made a tiny edit in that part because, omg, yes, that's hot. :D

And yes, I'm like that. Sometimes there's stuff I wouldn't prompt and LOVE and go over the moon but, you know. Yes, of course you do.

And hey, no pointing and laughing. XD *lol*

;D For someone who generally avoids reading smut, fanfiction has nevertheless taught me some interesting vocabulary lessons!

Yup. :D

Hehehehe. xD ♥

[capitu]

LOL! Right? I've learn a lot through fanfic, too!

I love reading these lists! It's always so very interesting to see what's on other people's likes and dislikes. Most of the time I find I'm just nodding my head going, "yes, yes, I agree totally." In fact, when I think of doing one of these myself, I usually just figure I'd end up quoting everyone else, like you did with lumosed_quill. I pretty much love all tropes as well, and my dislikes are pretty slim and quirky. Thanks for doing this!

You should absolutely make your own list! It's super fun. And hard, man, it's hard. But the fun kind of hard. :D

*hugs* And quote away!

Lovely list, hon!
It's a guarantee for a pretty good reading experience when one likes so many things, right?

Just thought about awickedmemory's comment about infedelity and came up with iwao's rec from last week - Tumble Down.
There's probably even an exception for all the things. ;p

Yep. :) I'm lucky because I don't have many squicks so it's like... I get to read pretty much everything. :D

I've read several infidelity fics that I've loved (and recced), and yes, that's an amazing one! :D

Let me inform you that your flist is highly ntertained by endless babbling and contradictions ;)

Seeing your likes made me squee - not because I share all of them (though omg yes! disability, memory loss, kidfic ♥), but because you're so wonderfully enthusiastic ^^

Now I want to kind of do a list of my own, though that'll likely be more complicated than yours.

[capitu]

Disability!!! There's no enough disability or memory loss fic. Almost in every fest I prompt something because <333. *nods*

You should make your own list! I'd love to read what you like and what you don't. Dooo iiiittt! <333

[lordhellebore]

I shall, when I find the time. Such lists are hard, because I have to think about so much xD

[capitu]

I know! I've been thinking about doing mine since last year, and mine shouldn't be hard because, you know, it includes almost everything. But do, do it! Fun!

[lauren3210]

Haha, I just kept reading and reading, thinking, is there going to be anything left for her DISLIKES list? aaaanndd the answer was apparently, NOPE. You're so awesome. I pride myself on being fairly open minded and up for any kind of kink, but you just blow right past me, it's fantastic! Wonderful list, sweetie <3

[capitu]

LOL *hugs* We have a lot in common!

Yeah, I have very few dislikes. I always try for the story to take me, you know? I think reading is very creative. Not in the same way as writing, of course. When you write, you're opening yourself to people, you telling them a story, but when you read, you're opening yourself to someone, too, you're listening to them. :D
