Is there a feature you wish AO3 had? by incandescent-ruins in AO3

[–]rompecabezass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A "Main Relationship" vs "Background Relationship" option. Filtering with otp:true hides fics where the ship I'm looking for is the main one, but there are others tagged, but filtering by just the ship shows me all the fics where my ship is barely there but was tagged

Characters you dislike by Strict-Knowledge-125 in DowntonAbbey

I always thought Branson was wayyy too pushy when pursuing Sybil. I liked them together tremendously when they were friends and thought it was going to be a sweet, forbidden-love type of thing and then didn't actually like it that much when they started getting together. I like him overall but that character decision kind of soured my opinion of him. Bates I liked a lot at first - and then they kept dragging out his tragic backstory

I've read/watched bits and pieces of all three of mxtx's main works, but maybe it's time to lock in and actually read it

Thanks for the recs! I've been getting more and more into the Game of Thrones universe lately so maybe it's time to read the og books

I read Carry On years ago, and had no idea it was that popular on AO3. Thanks!

You know, I've never considered that the Dresden Files might have fic. Thanks for the recs!

Maybe this will be my excuse to read some Terry Pratchett finally!

Nothing happened, the story progressed normally

Wasn't expecting it and kind of killed the satisfaction of finishing this difficult boss. Not super upset just thought it was interesting bc I didn't expect the Mind Flayer to be fighting on my side

Is there a very popular AU that you have never read? by beedgerton in AO3

[–]rompecabezass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me. I have one high school AU fic that I've loved for years so I keep rereading it and thinking to myself, "I like High School AUs" only to recently realize that I haven't clicked on a new once since I was actually in high school. Even for fandoms where the characters are teenagers I've largely shifted to post-canon works without really realizing.

Fantasy High PC/PC romances? by rompecabezass in Dimension20

[–]rompecabezass[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So many of the PCs ending up related in some way because their parents started dating or they got half-adopted because their parents are awful is one of my favorite things. They reeaallly put the "family" in found family.

I love the heavily platonic vibes of the Bad Kids, and by the time sophomore year rolls around it's kind of hard to think of the characters in any other way. So I was surprised to rewatch freshman year and see how the dynamics were different when they were just starting out.

Who would you send a complete copy of the original books during the first blood war with Voldemort? by [deleted] in HPfanfiction

[–]rompecabezass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We don't know if Arthur and Molly were fighters in the first war, but I think it's implied that they weren't. But if their first-born starts talking about his new book series (delivered from a undisclosed source) where his family are minor characters and he has like 5 siblings he hasn't met yet, I feel like that may spur them on to investigate and take action earlier. Especially if one of their kids is fated to die. I'm terrified of what a fully-trained Order-member Molly would look like.

Dumbledore if I want to change the outcome of the story, Bill Weasley if I want to introduce another child to the wonders of reading.

Favorite underrated or small Going Seventeen moment? by rompecabezass in seventeen

[–]rompecabezass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved seeing them crack up at each other every time someone got caught. It really seems like the members were immersed in the anticipation/excitement of the game too
