Are there any tropes you can't stand?

Hmm… whole tropes? Not specifically, though - and I’m aware that this is worse, lol - I don’t like AUs in general. So if it’s not canon compliant, I typically just won’t read it at all, but I don’t object to it existing, if that makes sense? There are worse sins in terms of characterization choices, specifically when any one person is made very two-dimension or all one thing with no nuance, etc. Sherlock being a petulant brat all the time, John being either all nice or all jerk, etc etc.

just-shower-thoughts:



Women generally aren’t turned off by balding men. Women are turned off by balding men trying to hide the fact they are balding which only makes them seem delusional.



Or to rephrase this more concisely: women are turned off by men’s delusions

FanFic Ask Game

s0me-writer:



wornquillsandspilledink:


A: How did you come up with the title to [insert
fic]?


B: Any of your stories inspired by personal
experience?


C: What member do you identify with most?


D: Is there a song or a playlist to associate
with [insert fic]?


E: If you wrote a sequel to [insert fic], what
would it be about?


F: Share a snippet from one of your favorite
dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.


G: Do you write your story from start to finish,
or do you write the scenes out of order?


H: How would you describe your style?


I: Do you have a guilty pleasure in fic (reading
or writing)?


J: Write or describe an alternative ending to
[insert fic].


K: What’s the angstiest idea you’ve ever come up
with?


L: How many times do you usually revise your
fic/chapter before posting?


M: Got any premises on the back burner that
you’d care to share?


N: Is there a fic you wish someone else would
write (or finish) for you?


O: How do you begin a story–with the plot, or
the characters?


P: Are you what George R. R. Martin would call
an “architect” or a “gardener”? (How much do you plan in
advance, versus letting the story unfold as you go?)


Q: How do you feel about collaborations?


R: Are there any writers (fanfic or otherwise)
you consider an influence?


S: Any fandom tropes you can’t resist?


T: Any fandom tropes you can’t stand?


U: Share three of your favorite fic writers and
why you like them so much.


V: If you could write the sequel (or prequel) to
any fic out there not written by yourself, which would you choose?


W: Do you like more general prompts, or more
specific ones?


X: A character you enjoy making suffer.


Y: A character you want to protect.


Z: Major character death–do you ever write/read
it? Is there a character whose death you can’t tolerate?




This looks like fun. :D

But please don’t ask me “J.” I feel like that one is kind of mean. I don’t want to change anyone’s fic!



I’d love to be asked these! Same exception on J, though!
