Why oh why do I let myself re-read fic that makes me all sad and nostalgic and full of emotion?

I'm talking about Accidental Memory In The Case Of Death by derryere . Title quote belongs to her. Anyway, this was my second go of it. And like, let me warn you if you're considering checking it out- it's like a bazillion words long and full of those empty ( Read more... )

fic: i read it, tv: merlin

My rec list would be full of your stories. Haha! They're pretty much some of the only fics I read now.

Awwww. -preens-

Yeah, the BTR fandom is possibly the only one that I only have a small handful of authors I'm in love with- including you :). I think part of it is that before I got all Disney-fied with my interests, I would spend hours on end trawling ffn for fic, but now I'm spoiled by LJ. And the vast majority of my ultimate favorite fic are of the lengthy multi-chapter variety, which isn't exactly plentiful 'round these parts. I keep waiting for the fandom to boom and someone to start making some good BTR rec lists, but I haven't seen any.

Plus I'm a dirty traitor and keep going back to Merlin. Stupid fandom's like an ex you keep hooking up with because he's that good.

If I recall correctly, last time we talked about this particular fic I believe you said you didn't finish it. :p That was just about a thousand years ago, though, and my memory is shoddy as hell.

I can't stand it when they're sweet. Which, yeah, okay, isn't actually surprising with either of us. I think I'm okay with it in Accidental Memory only because there are about three sweet sections and the rest of it is angst/death/destruction/unbridled desire/betrayal/angst. Derryere is amazing. I possibly haven't read all of her stuff yet? I know I started working my way through it, and then life interfered...and then I was suddenly struck by a fervent desire to reread ninety thousand words of soul wrenching angst.

...Yeah. I keep saying I'm going to do all these things, but then I sit down to do them and go all attention deficit.
