just a side note

I don't see the point of writing a fic about two JE boys if you're going to make one of them a girl for no adequately explored reason.

Original fiction doesn't bite. Just saying.

I think I know the fic that triggered this. I was kinda waiting for the author to drop the punchline. Yaknow. Like. For the deep dark secret to be OMG HE'S A MAN AFTER ALL. But that would probably be giving the author too much credit. Or something.

Thank you for posting this; having said fic being on top of my f-page was killing me XD

Amen to that. My rage at fics where one of the characters is randomly female. :|

I agree but I'm a bit sad, though because -if we think of the same person-, she used to write great stories. One of hers used to be my favorite.... =(

But after a while I just couldn't appreciate her changing taste and nowadays even in fics where everyone got to stay male, she writes a specific character extremely girly :///.

=(((

I think I know who you're talking about, but I think Lae's talking about a different fic since the other fic did have a reason for making one of her character female. xD Someone tell me if I'm on the right page. x.X

God, I so agree with you. I was looking at the fic summary and I'm like "did this person do a typo or something?" It annoys the hell out of me when I come back to LJ and try update myself on fandom and whatnot and end up seeing something like that. If you cant even slash them as bl, then why ship them? -sigh- I dont get people sometimes.
