My Closet of Badfics (Part 1)
I was sifting through the badfic community, looking at some of the NCIS stuff, and it reminded me of a CM/NCIS/House crossover I wrote a long time ago. At least two years, maybe more. It's laden with mis-spelling of names (which annoys the hell out of me these days -_-), lack of knowledge about certain shows, and just plain stupidity. Let's have a look, shall we?
Sporking is in bold.
The plane ride would have been completely normal, had it not been for the six occupants and their discussion.
Remember this. They're having a discussion. Remember that.
I spend the next three paragraphs describing the characters. Canon characters. Not OCs. If people were to actually read this fic, they would already know what the characters look like. Again, big pet peeve these days.
The first man was the first to speak.
Oh my God. Look back up there, the part I told you to remember. They were already having a discussion when I started my long descriptions about the characters everyone knows. I amaze myself sometimes.
I then spend the next page and a half talking about how these shootings the case is about could possibly be random, and trying to find a way to put in everyone's name in one conversation. This is where I make my first name mistake. I spelled Prentiss, Prentice. I fail. At life.
Snip, snip.
Okay, now to the NCIS crew.
Gibbs settled back in his seat, putting on his seat belt. Magee climbed on, carrying a bag by his side. Ziva and Denozzo climbed on behind him.
Oh my God. What have I done? I've slaughtered the names of two of the hottest characters on television. And to think I actually wrote five chapters of this stuff.
Snip.
Ducky took his seat as far away from Abby as possible.
Ducky never is bothered by Abby's rants. And yet, here, he is. And is anyone noticing the lack of Palmer?
So then they leave and the next page is one paragraph, describing the case I've already described to you up there. *points*
It was confusing, but Gibbs liked confusing. Good thing, too.
I don't know what it is about this, but it bugs me so much. Sometimes I wonder if it really could have been me who wrote this stuff. *facepalm*
Next time, I bring you chapter two of this horrible menace that is a very, very bad fic.
