I'm definitely not interested in censoring the discussion, because I think 99.99999% of it has been done in the spirit of the forum: polite, respectful of others' opinions, and informative. However, I'd suggest that going forward, we not describe the plotlines of specific fanfics, nor post recs on the news thread. Great suggestion - I concur and thank you Yes, thank you and please PLEASE lets move on

SCROLL ALERT ;D It was Tommy's father, he was a king, she was a queen whose husband had just died and he was attempting to take over their land.... That incident, which is only briefly discussed in the story, was the catalyst for all of Adam's actions leading up to him meeting Prince TommyJoe (his fathers favorite son). I didn't bring up that particular plot device to squeak anyone out. Laws of Illyria just happens to be in one of the best stories I've ever read in the fandom and honestly outside the fandom as well and I was using it as an example of good story telling. Without reading the story you would not understand why it was a very tiny but important plot point. I just don't see it as a tiny plot point if rape is involved. If the story was so well written, why would it need to use Adam & Tommy's name to get attention? Would anyone here want their daughter's or son's name used in a story like this and spread over the internet? I just don't get it. It was written within the Idol fandom which is why Adam and Tommy's name was used. Thought that would be obvious. You'd have to read the story for it to make sense but you have no interest and that's okay. You don't have to get it Pasta. No one is posting the link here (I have given it to several people via PM who asked for it though so there is clearly interest). It seems like much ado about nothing to me and more is being made of it than is necessary. ETA: moving on........... can someone post the video of the cap of freckly adam?

Can we just say that some people like fic, some don't and leave it at that? If this starts a big to do I'm gonna run away. I'm skurred. Hold me. Chunkey ITA!!! ill hold you! *holds tight*

Did you check in yesterday and see all your BD wishes?! :D OMG! *facepalm moment* It's not actually my birthday, it's actually in April. I was being cautious about using the actual birthday 'cuz it's the net. Okay, in retrospect, that looks more paranoid than cautious, but Thank you all anyway!!! Makes me love you all even more!!! *Squishes everyone extra tight* (Didn't realize you all could actually see the bday!) Red-faced, grashus That WAS very sweet of everyone to send you greetings. You are not alone, Grashus. My fake Atop birthday isn't for 10 months or so.

I made a macro that I think clearly represents the good and the bad of fanfic and should, once and for all, bring this discussion to it's inevitable end. Leaving us with much to think about and probably, much to have nightmares over. (thank you Google images for finding me the scariest pic ever to use in this) And with that I suggest our next topic of discussion be this: Adam gets a buzz cut. Better or worse than the glamweave? Aaaand....GO!
