You know, I wanted to play the [livejournal.com profile] yami_valentine game and post my guesses on who I think wrote each one, but I realized that there's no way to do that without giving away my own.

So instead, I steal an idea from [livejournal.com profile] boniblithe. Which one do you think I wrote? ^^


And also: everyone should go and read the story I got, because it is THE BEST THING EVER OMG NOT KIDDING.
This Unique Distance from Isolation. It's so good it hurts me.

I think too that it might have fallen between the cracks- it's too dark to appeal to people who like Hiraki, and people who don't are likely to avoid it just from the summary.

But, well, I adore it. And really, it's all about me.

Hmm. I can see that. But the Hiraki fics that really squick me aren't the dark ones, but the stories that romanticize rape, torture and murder, presenting them as anything other than the sadistic product of a deviant, psychopathic mind. To me at least, the implications of fluffy Hiraki are much more, well, disturbing.

But don't mind me -- this topic always has me reaching for my soapbox


And really, it's all about me.

Word.

Yes, same here. Ironically, the dark ones are the only ones I don't have trouble reading. The romantic make me roll my eyes and hit the back button- well, that or worry for the state of humanity, but only if I'm having a bad day. It's the ones that eroticize the rape that give me nightmares and make me so furiously upset that I've started avoiding anything to do with the pairing at all.
