Where are the Snowdens of yesteryear? ([personal profile] neigedens) wrote2006-01-23 09:35 pm

*is only posting because she wants to use the new George Michael icon*

(He is just so damn cute.)

Anyway:

How you can tell you are reading a Briana Rose fic, you lucky dog, you:

1. Commas are either over- or underused. There isn't a happy medium when it comes to commas.
2. There is Lupin.
3. A Beatle is somehow referenced.
5. The header promises a Lupin/Tonks pairing, but all you seem to see them doing is eating stuff or talking about eating stuff. Similar to that...
6. There are absolutely no unsavory or immoral or even slightly interesting themes whatsoever. No gets "biz-zay" or has any sort of romantic relationship at all.
7. It is a very short one-shot and the author seems to have a very short attention span.
8. Do I really have to do ten of these?
9. If it isn't a one-shot it hasn't been updated in at least six months.
10. Random changes in tense are not only common, they are expected and welcomed with open arms.
10. The author can't count very well.

There. Now I'm going back to staring at George Michael, if you'll excuse me.

11. They are awesome?

George Michael? Well, there had to be something about you that I did not admire, sooner or later. And, ahem, I am afraid that you or any girl do not stand much of a chance...

Different George Michael. The one in my icon up there is a character on the TV show "Arrested Development" played by Michael Cera. I find him such such a good actor, because he manages to pull of a terribly awkward and gawky teenager so naturally that it's incredibly funny and not over-the-top like some portrayals you see in TV.

Oh, OK, great. In that case you must find something else for me to disagree with.

Totally forgot: I got your postcard finally. It's really lovely. :)

I just had to comment, having read all the fics. You forgot "10. For these reasons, the writer seems to be the sanest fan fiction-writer to date." I dig your lack of romance in stories promising ship. Believe me, it's nothing but refreshing.
