You see, I like epithets because I get so tired of reading the character's name over and over again. I think epithets bring some variation into the story and I appreciate it for breaking up the repetition of a story

Or the ai dialogue like “you paid attention?” “Someone had to.” Or “you’re insufferable!” “But you stayed.” and “you came” “you asked me to” NO ONE TALKS LIKE THAT

this is kinda silly but i hate in gay fics when the bottom’s friend group is all bottoms while the top’s friend group is all tops and they form other side couples it’s so ughhhh. the heteronormativity of it all

Epithets are best used on UNNAMED characters. "I couldn't help staring at the raven-haired boy" is fine, until you learn that his name is Jeff and then you just gotta say "I couldn't help staring at Jeff"

I canNOT read fics that are too out of character I’ll let some stuff slide but it gets to a point where it doesn’t even feel like the character anymore

My pet peeve is formatting. I skipped so many fics 'cause of the first few paragraphs 💔 Everything's lowercase? The paragraph break is too wide? NO paragraph breaks? Bye

My biggest fan fic pet peeve is writers who overly feminize one of the male characters in a mlm relationship to the point of entire mischaracterization. When writing about gay men why is the top calling the bottom his princess or baby girl

my biggest pet peeve is when a fic is supposed to be set outside of the usa but everything the characters do is american 😭 theyll pay in dollars and eat pancakes for every breakfast meanwhile the characters are japanese and the fic takes place in japan. its like people assume american culture is universal 😭😭
