LET'S JOGRESS: Daiken Fic Recs

Dec 24, 2009 01:49

I prepared this as a comment to an anonymous poster over at fandomsecrets, which came up in the discussion of Secret #110, a shocking secret from some Digimon fan who didn't like the 02 ending. (omg, who doesn't like that ending right???). Since I have been all Digimon focused lately, I was primed to create a fic recc list. I am reproducing it here because I ( Read more... )

The only people who liked the ending are Sorato fans. *coughs* Well, okay, some other people probably liked it too, but I sure didn't. Then again, I never like epilogues that feel like they've been tacked on almost as an afterthought. *very deliberately doesn't look at the HP fandom*

Hmm, in a battle between HP and Digimon, it is hard to say which had the more egregious ending. Digimon's was objectively worse but it was Digimon and frankly I'd not been expecting anything sensible to begin with. With Harry Potter, my expectations and hopes had been significantly higher. I knew my OTP of Harry Potter would never come to be (I was one of the hopeless Harry/Luna shippers, and still am kind of), but. But.

It was kinda like Rowling had seen the Digimon ending and had been, "omg, wtf, I need to do some shit like that, fuck wow and yeah!"

I have almost finished Yami! I am determined to finish it, or die in the attempt. *blows mini fanfare*

And when you do I will sob a million tears, most likely. But you should be flattered by those tears because they are a sign of how affecting your writing is to me. :)

Thanks for this...I'd never read some of these before and I'm on a little bit of a nostalgic Digimon kick lately.

You're welcome (belatedly!). The nostalgia appears to be going around. It's really nice hearing from you, I miss seeing you posting all the time. Although I figure it's because you're all grown up now. XD What's up?

I just got out of the habit of posting, mostly. My New Years Resolution this year is to NOT randomly disappear from the internet for 6 months next year.

Other than that, not much, really.

I know, for serious. You should be like me and just start writing it again spontaneously for no discernible reason!

I have done that a couple of times over the years. ;) I'm sure it'll happen again some day.

Heh, I've actually been working on Fine Art recently. I want to mold it into something that I'd be willing to read. As it is now, I can barely get through the first chapter. It's just so teenage.

Aw. But I know what you mean. I've been rewriting Reflections precisely because I cringe whenever I look at the old version. Actually, I cringe when I re-read a lot of my older Digimon fic. Even Sibyl (which is why I'm rewriting that too).

With Fine Art, though... don't be too hard on yourself. I already think it's lovely and wonderful. If you're somehow going to improve on it I can't even tell you how eager I am to see it. Even more, I want to know how it turns out! That is an ending I've been wanting to see for forever.

Speaking of... a million years ago I asked for you to show me that original fic you were working on, and you sent me a link and everything. But RL distracted me and I lost the link and jeez I am an ass. I would still like to read it though.
