Something I thought might be worth mentioning

[donnaimmaculata]

I consider fanfiction, to a great degree, as a platform that allows me to lust after some man I fancy. Therefore, I prefer to read fics that are not written from that man's PoV. I want see him through the eyes of others, because, in order to find someone fanciable, I musn't know what's going on inside their heads. I want the mystery. I want to remain an outsider. I want the distance.

Does that make sense to anyone else beside myself?

to.ta.lly.

I want my crush to remain a mystery, like it would be in RL - otherwise it's just too confusing. I want to see him through someone else's eyes (but not in a second person narrative though, I hate that)

Yay for mystery! That's why I hardly ever write from Remus' PoV. I mean, he is enigma personified, so why should I try to make him less so?

*orgasmic* YEEEEEEEEEESSSS!

hum, I'm in serious need of Remus slash. Once I get some time off for good behavior, I'll jump on those like a... like a cannibal who likes seafood in front of a frogmen buffet. That's a lot of craving.
