Wait, someone is arguing that the Dursleys weren't abusive?? O_o
Glad your parents are getting better!
Technically I found fandom years ago, back in high school when I went looking for everything I could find about the movie Newsies and stumbled onto a wealth of fanfic. Years later, I started off on Fanfiction.net (*shudders*) looking for fic for The Outsiders, and then started reading HP stuff (Remus/Sirius) because there wasn't much good Outsiders fic. Some writers on FF.net had links to their LJ's, and the rest is history.
Yeah. Someone is arguing that the Dursleys are not abusive cause Harry is a special needs kid and Petunia simply didn't know how to cope. Or something. The sad bit is that it isn't just one person, it's at least 3 of them. I don't even know, man.
Thanks muchly! It's been a crazy emotionally stressful time!
Oh man! Newsies AND Outsiders? Do you have any links to any good stuff from there? Oh man *flails*
Newsies AND Outsiders? Do you have any links to any good stuff from there?
Well...as I recall it wasn't so much good as it simply wasn't terrible, if you know what I mean? Plus, during my early days in fandom I generally read a lot of het and gen rather than slash. But let me see what I have bookmarked...
Okay. I have always been a major Darry fangirl, so a lot of the fics I have for The Outsiders feature him in a prominent role.
The Chaperone: It looks like a two-chapter fic, but it's actually two separate vignettes featuring Pony-Darry interaction.
Ten Years Later: Future fic by the same author as the one above. Frankly, I don't remember anything about this one, but I'll just throw it out there. ;-)
Tulsa: Okay, this has a major Mary Sue, aka a sister for the boys, but as I recall it was reasonably well written and enjoyable. Going Home Again is the sequel, set a few decades later. The sequel is angsty if you're a Darry fan
