Do you ever read a fic that you really enjoyed and it has A Thing That’s Important to You in it so you want to rec it BUT it’s also got a few things you *really* dislike? Like if you split the difference it’s still pretty good but those flaws bug you to the point that you almost want to mention them – but you have a general policy against mentioning flaws in rec lists?
Needless to say I’m conflicted.
Yes. I just read an ABO that was decent, I rather enjoyed the concept. It was Wincestiel and I really enjoyed the world the author built. The flaw?
The spelled Cas, Cass.
I wanted to nope out, but I was pretty deep in before it even came up. Thankfully it only came up a few times in the whole thing.
This is probably not close to what you are talking about. But spelling Cas that way will always be considered a flaw in my book. I would never mention this to an author of course because it is a preference, not a technical flaw, but I do understand.
lol. You underestimate just how picky I can be. Spelling Cas, Cass is enough for me to completely ignore a fic altogether.
What I’m talking about is actually a preference. It’s a lack of Sam in a destiel fic, which there are times I can excuse but this time there was pretty much no reason to exclude him and it really bugged me. He was mentioned once in 60k words. Which super bugs because I know there are things in the fic friends of mine would like but a lack of Sam will most likely turn them off.
