Badfic, glorious badfic

First, everyone should go and join vm_spork. Really.

Secondly, Good lord. I ventured into the Alexandre Dumas section of ff.net and am now scarred forever. They are so bad I can't even summarize.

Choice examples of summaries:

A story we wrote with a friend. Mostly Alexandre Dumas (Three Musketeers), also Bulgakov, Gerald Durell, P.G.Wodehouse, Èapek,

Not only does the author know about Bulgakov, she obviously knows words I don't. What is "cancan't?"

I think I'd chalk that up to typo and give her points for knowing the authors. I wonder if the fic's any good.

What happens when a young woman's youth is ripped from her? Will she go on without feeling, or will she learn to live again? Rating might go up, please R&R.

Wow, she makes the whole "youth ripped from her" sound like a medical condition! What happens, indeed? I wonder if "youth" is like a kidney, so you can lose one and still have a back up? Or is it something that you have to regrow?

I have no words. But point for knowing the names of secondary characters, which is clearly more than the above authors could do.

Eh, it seems like a decent enough slash fic...

Athos, Porthos, Aramis, and d'Artagnan, come across a girl dressed as a musketeer, who saves their lives from the Cardinel's men. WHo is she? What is her quest? Why did she risk everything for a group of Musketeer's that she did not even know?And what will she do

It's the concept of "30 kisses" that just...sticks. I wouldn't care who the couple is and in what fandom, it just sticks.

Or is it something that you have to regrow?

I don't know. The author's common sense seems to have been ripped from her permanently though.

And what will she do after all the Musketeers have killed themselves from the shame of being rescued by a girl?

ROFL.
