Description Yeah, I'm making fun of the fandom. But, really, it was just asking for it. And I do like to mock things I enjoy.

So, baaasically, these are some of the most common elements that pop up in the S/R fanfics. They show up constantly in different combinations (and with varying amounts of success... but I will not go there). I suppose it might have been interesting to pick out the more "WTF!?!" ones out there... but that would require finding them and exposing my already abused brain to them. The summaries can be painful enough as it is, thank you very much.

On an artsy note, sorry about the half-ass coloring. My attention span died about three quarters of the way through.

...WTF? Burritos can mess you up? Hahaha. Yeah, I suppose if they're laced with like meth or something...

Unless you're talking about digestively, and that would be an entirely different story.

I was talking about digestively...and I read that as "laced with math."

Well something laced with math would be seriously frightening.

Bits of paper with equations on them embedded in your food.

Aaach, maybe it's been so long I should just not comment so that it looks like I was done with the conversation instead of like I just forgot about DevArt again.

XD Indeed, indeed we do. How else would one realize the trends other than to have read a zillion instances of them?

You know what makes it even funnier?

. . . When you're in the midst of writing a story than involves one or more of said plotlines.

*cough cough*

Hehe, well I'm right there with you, though. I figured that since I could lump myself with it, it was okay for me to make fun.

Guess we're in the same boat then, hon. *sighs and slings an arm over your shoulder* What can you do, eh? I know it's waaaaaaaaaay too late for me to be saved from the murky depths of Ses/Rin worship . . . Maybe there's hope for you, though.

Frotu In reply to LittleFoxglove [2007-12-01 03:33:30 +0000 UTC]

*sage nod* Indeed we are.

Mmm... who said anything about wanting to be saved? I'm quite happy with the murky depths. More fun down here, no?

*chuckles uncontrollably* Oh my GOSH, this is perfect!! I'm so glad you did this; you definitely picked all of the best (or at least most frequently used) elements of S/R fic! And yay for the burrito reference! I was looking forward to that. *snort* Mm, I don't really know what else to say, because honestly every picture/text part of the picture made me do this sort of fangirl squeaky giggle thing, so I can't really name favorite parts! I do, however, feel that one small comment is absolutely crucial: Sesshy stroking the Fluffy--FTW.

"I suppose it might have been interesting to pick out the more 'WTF!?!' ones out there... but that would require finding them and exposing my already abused brain to them. The summaries can be painful enough as it is, thank you very much."
*nods in complete understanding* So true, and besides, those of us who see this and understand the significance have probably already seen plenty of "WTF?" fics anyway, so yeah, not reminding us is SO okay. *cringe*

So anyway, great job, and yay for mocking things we enjoy!! *smiles hugely*

PS: Since I am by no means an artist, and have, therefore, lower and different standards, I just also want to say that I liked the coloring just fine, the pictures were each adooorable (*smishes them*) and yay for purple!!!

XD Perfect, even? Wow. Hehehe... I'm glad you think I've covered the basics satisfactory. Aaaand burrito... that won't be the last time it shows up. I've just nicely set myself up so that I can actually draw that.

Well... I'm sure the fluffy would work as a nice comfort object during times of stress. Don't you think so?

But anyway... I'm pleased that it gave you a laugh. Then I have succeeded.

*laaauugghs* You're going to draw the burrito??? That will. be. WONDERFUL. Oh my gosh....

*snort!* WOW, a very nice comfort object, indeed! Much better than a lame stuffed bunny or something. I'd love to see that concept make another appearance! *hint hint* Hehe, just kidding. *is not*

Hahahaha, "a laugh" is a bit of an understatement!!

Heeck yes, I'm going to draw the burrito! Like I'm letting go of that OOC opportunity. *laughs* Just a matter of time now...

It would be much better than a lame stuffed bunny or woodland creature. So many more possibilities with a fluffy. It's like a blankie on steriods. *giggle*

wow. um, you nerd. hahah, funny though...even though i had no idea what was going on.

by the way, isn't she like...seven? gross.

Frotu In reply to TehForks [2007-11-23 04:56:45 +0000 UTC]

This is not a sign of my nerdiness. Please. There are much better examples that demonstrate the depths of what a moron I am. Glad that it was funny anyway...

And yes, she is like seven now. But she won't always be.

... Although that would be another thing I could have made fun of, I suppose. I find that upsetting, though. Or gross, as you said.

I do hope you end up writing more snark, though... *subtle*

Tee hee... well, write know the brain has been mulling over more "serious" (lol) fic. BUT the inspiration for snark is great in this.... and the many fics I have to read through regularly.

Well, as long as there is something to read, I won't be picky about what it is exactly that the muses hit you over the head with. ^__^
