I want those hours back... (Can you jail someone for canon-character rape?)

Apr 21, 2009 15:23

I'm generally an easy-going person when it comes to fandom and fic, I generally only have nice things to say/positive feedback and it's all very much deserved. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not the best writer (not by a long shot). But when I see Cannon-Raping as bad as it was in a story I read yesterday I want to Cry. Icon very much relevant ( Read more... )

fic, ranting, wtf, fandom

omg, I've read so many bad stories like this, that everyone squeals over and loves, and I just shake my head in confusion and try to purge the experience from my memory. I have no idea what story you're talking about but if you want to point me in the right direction, I'd gladly give you an opinion on it.

Oh BB... You are asking for it. Please to be keeping in mind that the author has pretty much completely fucked with the characters and they aren't really like this.

What you need to know:

Sentinels: People with enhanced senses (in cannon there was only one) These senses can be overwhelming if they aren't kept under control.

Guides: Only vaguely dealt with in cannon (and never like this). In cannon we are given the impression that there is someone 'attached' to the Sentinel who helps them keep their senses under control.

This story is a Cluster-Fuck of Epic proportions. But I love you for being willing to read it for me.

ILU BB, and will have brain bleach ready and waiting for whenever you give up.

OMG, I got 1/3 down the first page. How much of this did you read? Pass the brain bleach now please *grabby hands*
You are a lot braver than I am. I just can't go on. I admit defeat. *shudder*

OMG, even if the two year old child talking/acting like that didn't annoy the shit out of me, the whole face licking thing squicks me hard. And I'm not all that squickable.

Add the grammar and typo issues (huge, might I add), and the bouncing PoV, I'm surprised anyone got past the first little bit. Is this stargate?

oh yeah, you said that didn't you? my bad. And I should have known it was the Sentinel. You know what else squicks me about this story? The constant use of "baby" by the ten year old. It's creepy. Seriously, awards? I'm scared for the fandom if this is what they call good.

Apparently 'voting' for these awards is the same as voting in a lot of other instances: It's not how good you are, it's who/how many you know...

Yeah, I thought that too. But in my mind I just started substituting the characters name for each instance of 'baby'.
