To answer your question, I'd so no. Similar impressions, certainly, but exactly the same? Not a chance. Everyone is different. Of course, if you wanted to bring rules into it, you could probably create some sort of criteria for ranking... but impressions are totally different.
I have been enjoying the fics! Keep writing them. At the same time, I want to damn you for introducing me to the Tenipuri Press. Occasionally, I read things on there and go, "... O_o wthsortofdrugsareyouON?!"
Gah, running around, trying to get stuff ready for going on vacation. Hopefully, I'll catch you online at some point...
I'm inclined to agree with that. We all speak different languages, after all - we have a general consensus for what any given word means, but what it means to me and what it means to you might differ subtly, enough so that when you have a whole string of words together (i.e. a sentence), it could have a pretty noticeably different meaning. We were just talking about that in Jung actually, the fact that the "norm" is kind of a "most people" type thing, but there's ALWAYS a spectrum, and everyone falls a different amount out of the exact centre.
Oh, don't worry, I will. :D That Tezuka/Fuji is coming along, and I started the prequel to that vampire fic yesterday, and I also have a Silver Pair fic in the works (though I don't think you've met them yet), and those are just the ones already begun. And yes. I will never, EVER understand OT5. WTF.
Yeah, if everyone had the same impression of what every word meant, there would be no misunderstandings. >_>
Yeah, that was /definitely/ one of the ones that made me confused. Especially since they threw Echizen in the middle of it. I just stared at that for a while and slowly backed away. XD
You need to give me that untitled fic. Because now I have part of it floating around in my brain. And it just won't be happy until it is reunited with the rest of itself. ^_^
Said untitled fic, at least what you've read of it, is still posted on my LJ under lock to you, so you're welcome to it anytime! I'll try to get it finished soonish, if Aristotle doesn't eat my brain first. XD
Hello there! It's lovely to meet you properly! I'm not a big fan of friending just for fic's sake, though that's how I found you, so any sort of random ramblings are always welcome here! Academic rants are especially promising. XD
Mm, I'm always a bit wary when someone friends me and I think it's just for fic because... my journal isn't all that much about fic (occasional WIP-I-will-never-finish posts and wailing about progress/lack thereof aside). But you seemed interesting. :)
I'm not all that much of an academic really but... well... educated enough to have Views on some points. It was all rather tangental, really. *g*
That's flattering! I hope I don't bore you to death with ramblings about Aristotle and immortal time travellers and vampire sex and then like. *coughs*
Tangents are even better! I oftentimes live my life in footnotes, to be honest. And I always like hearing Views. I've made a career out of dialogue. I shan't push you, but if you're ever inclined to elabourate, please feel free.

Anyway, catch you later.

Hi! I don't have a huge amount to say for myself right now but I just noticed that you friended me so I thought I'd drop by. :)
I had some other stuff to say but it managed to turn into a rant on a certain class of academics, so I'll leave it there. Hello!
