YES!! I can't remember which fic it is now, but somebody either meta-ed or had a character say that if Tifa had smacked Cloud on his head everytime he started to flashback aka go bonkers, the world would have been much better. which is just so true!

but on the other hand, there wouldn't be all the delicious UST-ing present in FF7 the game, as it is now. I mean. how much more blatant can the love/hate relationship get?

Eh. a hell lot of different fandoms n genres - was reading seifer/squall for a few hours, refreshing my memory of all the good fics there are. then turned to whatever ac n ff7 fic there is now - A Long, Hard Road (portions of it; I love the series but, admittedly, some parts are just waayy too over-angsty.

have you read any of plnunn's fics? I'd read her Saiyuki, WK and GB stuff before, but just realized there was a 17-part orig!fic (Bloodraven) that is really quite good - I'd seen it before but as the first two/three parts were really brutal and inhuman rape (even more so than usual for plnunn), I was kinda put off it. But the following parts actually start developing characterization and plot so.. =D

What kinda fic are you into, usually?
