A space to chat fandom! Anon!

Got a WIP you're excited about? Want to rave about your fave? Or is your fandom absolutely in love with a character who detracts from every scene they bumble into, and you need somewhere to vent? You're in the right place!

DA

That sounds so offputting! My own bait and switch tale from a while back isn't as dramatic; there was a fic that was a few tens of thousands of words long, and which started out building up to a romance. I read faaaaar too many chapters before it became apparent that the author had got bored of the direction and was never actually going to get to the hook up. Still hadn't stopped her from tagging it, though. -_-

Hah, did the comments start calling her out on it? Some people on Ao3 get reeeeeeeeally angry about tagging!

I don't remember, I just remember being really annoyed because it was quite a rare pairing that I like, and the fic looked really promising at first; I was looking for a fic that went along those lines (except good). >:( Normally I just find some authors I like and read whatever they've written, but this was one I'd found *via* the tags. So grr.
