DVD Commentary for One Sentence Fic Meme and My Little Who Fandom

[x_losfic]

Why am I doing a commentary for such a random-ass little thing? Because I used commentaries to track what I've proof-read on Ao3. Also rabid completism. Carry on.

i have many things to say about this short commentary! i bet you did not imagine that.

1. you should put a link to these fics - perhaps on AO3 - since otherwise it is a bit bemusing and people have probably forgotten them.

2. you should def repost those other commentaries that you posted on DW that did not arrive on LJ, so people can read them. either just copy and paste or update the DW posts. that should create a copy (though i have no idea, really).

3. do you realise that we are SO FAR IN THE FUTURE now that this post comes above your sticky posts? you might want to push them in the future a bit more.

4. what was your fixation with nyssa when you wrote this? i mean, fair play: i think nyssa has plenty of interesting stuff to give in fanfiction. but... it does, as you point out, seem unlike you.

5. death - you wrote this fic? you just haven't posted it.

6. I think it'd become my 'Meanwhile': good, and I'd be invested, but it'd be SO AU, and so long, that people might lose interest (hell, in fandom now? *What* people?)...

This post made me feel EXTREMELY guilty for never commenting on your latest Meanwhile chapter. I read both it and the commentary. And I still love the story! I was just mired in grading and had no more comments in me at the time. I hope you don't feel you're without readers--I'm sure there are more like me.

P. S.

Not because there was any kind of guilt trip. I just realized that I really should have commented so that you would know that people are reading your story/

thank you <3 that is very pleasing to know. i do plan to keep writing, no matter what happens, but it is very good to know that people want it/didn't get bored with it as it grew even MORE self-indulgent.

and i do feel a bit bad now about commenting as i did in a public space (even this comment is a bit... making it worse), even despite your kind no-guilt-trip comment, but there we are. the deed is done, and it got me this nice comment.
