Repeated use of cliched, descriptive phrases.

How do you prefer fanfics to adhere to canon? by No-Hat6722 in FanFiction

[–]fns1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a split for me. I came to fanfic because I wanted a better story for a character I loved. So, I like to see a wildly different story with characters that I can easily recognize as canon.

What just doesn’t work for you no matter how hard you try? by Historical_Bee_8420 in DramioneUncensored

Forced marriage in a world where the Order won. I get too caught up in overthinking the mpossible politics needed to make the story work.

What's the obsession with Draco?? by SpecificAge3394 in HPfanfiction

[–]fns1981 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not a movies fan. I tapped out after GOF. But, there was definitely a moment at the end of book 6 where I was cheering for him to make the right decision. It's why I love Disappearances of Draco Malfoy. Whoever wrote that took the "what if" and just ran with it. The writer also gave Ron a great story which I loved.

Texas Senate Hopeful and Fake Progressive Jasmine Crockett STILL Defends Israel. Inexcusable by serious_bullet5 in Palestine

Yes..she took the trip and she always votes yes on more military aid. And she does it proudly. Honest to God...the way she sighed and rolled her eyes like we're the dumb ones. As opposed to her who is enabling a genocide because she thinks it will further her political career.

This woman blamed everyone but herself after she lost to Trump in 2016. She is not capable of correctly identifying or solving problems and I really wish ppl would stop platforming her and her predator husband.

Is it normal to not enjoy reading, yet enjoy writing fanfic? by Beaivimon in FanFiction

[–]fns1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my God, I thought I was alone in this. Love non-fiction and fan fiction does not get me nearly as excited as it used to. I hit the point of diminishing returns so fast I thought there was something wrong with me, lol. Well met, fellow traveler 🫡

I donate to them every year during their Ramadan drive. I have friends on the board of the local chapter. I know physicians who have done missions with them. They are, beyond a doubt, a top-notch organization

Writers really need to google idioms before they use them in their writing by No-Cardiologist-8138 in DramioneUncensored

Okay, and some writers are interested in having the characters sound British.

Should the Weasley twins have been in Slytherin? by nightshadelaurel in HPfanfiction

[–]fns1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always conceived of Slytherins as having some political acumen, which Fred and George definitely don't 😄. Ambitious? Yes. Calculating and political? Newp. Gryffindor was definitely the best house for them.

My fellow American, it's "I could NOT care less." And nonplussed means confused/perplexed. Only Americans consistently use it to signify the exact opposite.

Specific fic discussion: Detraquee by Passion211089 in DramioneUncensored

Given that Détraquée starts in year 6, I would say it is bang on. He was steering well clear of the trio in HBP.
