What wanks are you destined to always get involved with meme? What ship wars can't you resist?

I can't seem to stop getting into wanks about whether OOC fic is bad.

IDGAF about ship wars, though.

Wait. I understand people have different understanding of what's considered in character... but are the arguments about writing the characters completely ooc (and I presume not in a coffeeshop AU type fic) on purpose? Why would anyone do that?

No, it’s not OOC on purpose, it’s more of a language wank on what can be considered objectively “good”. Some people think that if a work is OOC it is fundamentally incapable of being “good” (whatever that means) whereas others may be able to enjoy a work that they find technically well-written/enjoyable in its own right, whether the characters are IC or not.

Because why not?

Spent the day at a zoo. Technically, it was a field trip, but honestly seemed like less a field trip and more like an excuse to just go there. And it's been sunny, and too warm to wear a jacket pretty much all day. :D

Re: Things making you happy today anonymous March 10 2014, 20:50:11 UTC

Me as well, nonny! And it was a marvellous day. :D

Eighthses? Krakens have eight legs, perchance?

Alas no, fair nonny. The Kraken crossed over for the new world to meet his long lost brother. He'll be back soon though.

Re: Fanfic recs - Harry Potter next gen anonymous March 10 2014, 20:26:43 UTC

I haven't read any but now I have a sudden urge to do just that. Rec me your favorites!

Re: Fanfic recs - Harry Potter next gen anonymous March 11 2014, 23:12:21 UTC

Pretty much the only next gen I remember liking was Inverarity's "Hogwarts Houses Divided" http://www.fictionalley.org/authors/inverarity/HHD.html

As I understand, it's very well known and an obvious rec to make, but there you go =)

OMG, Schnoogle! Good times, good times.

What would your favorite canon look like set in Miami, Florida?

Re: In honor of post #305 (Miami-Dade's area code)... anonymous March 10 2014, 20:26:40 UTC

Fraser would die of heatstroke in that uniform.

Re: In honor of post #305 (Miami-Dade's area code)... anonymous March 10 2014, 20:29:43 UTC

Probably about the same amount of guns, explosions, and alien invasions, to be honest. Slightly more gators.

My main fandom is Teen Wolf so even more shirtlessness, I'm guessing.
