letterblade...about the PGSM fandom:
The Good
Fanon!Jadeite. I love him and his stupid pranks and his boyish plots and his little puppy angst.
Decent Nephrite/Ami fic, esp. w/ hot sex. I <3 that pairing and how screwy it is. Although I've yet to see a story address the biggest single obstacle: Ami's overprotective man-hating girlfriend. Srsly.
This ficlet. One misplaced phrase, one missing comma, a whole fuckload of razor-sharp character insight. IT HURTS SO GOOD.
Usagi's inevitable spawn having the Scariest Uncles Ever. Wheeeeeee!
The Bad
Not found much actual Shitennou smut yet. Woez.
The frequency of Zoicite/Minako. Nngh. First, being angsty musicians (who would hate each others' work, btw) with a tendency to go solo does not compatibility make. Second, although this is only an issue during series, it seems fairly clear to me that Minako has put her sexuality on hold due to illness issues; I pretty much consider her asexual, though I admit that may change in post-series. Third, and the biggest for me...there are very few characters I peg as a 6 on the Kinsey scale, as 6's are rare, but Zoicite is so one of them.
Kunzite, even when not in Extenuating Circumstances, being written as way more of an asshole than he actually is.
The Ugly
The 'Zoi' nickname. Grrg. WTF.
No Rei/Ami? Am confused.
~~~
I just mispelled Kinsey as Kinsexy. Clearly my slip is showing.
~~~
...about herself:
The Good
Nothing.
The Bad
I am a complete social fuckup and should stay away from everybody because I hurt them inadvertantly and ruin their days (assuming they notice me at all), and since it's inadvertant I don't know when I'm doing it, and since I have such a shit memory I can't look back on what I did and figure it out. Also I forget other important things, and can't get a job.
The Ugly
My chin. Fuck'n' zits.
