Thanks for taking the time to say so, it’s appreciated. :-)
Heh, I wasn’t thinking of wandpoint wrt to my complaint about anti-fluff bias. On the contrary, thanks to its rating and tags, bw gets attention it probably shouldn’t (to be fair), if that’s what a reader were actively seeking. (Conversely, I have one future chapter that probably goes too far for an “M” rating and a couple that skirt it, but wasn’t willing to give wandpoint a higher rating given the scene is such a small drop in the bucket. (If you came explicitly for the E (*snerk*), you’d be disappointed; similarly if you were avoidant for that reason, you might be missing a work you’d like.) I’ll need to figure out how to approach that when I get there. Currently I’m experimenting with leaving a chapter or portion thereof “skippable” in the Christmas Spirit AU to see how that works. (And the answer is my sample size here is too small and doesn’t contain the right segments to test properly...) But in the final analysis, the actual details of the third instalment won’t have been crucial to the story; that’s what previouslies are for...)
It doesn’t matter, though, that bw isn’t fluff if there is an anti-fluff bias. The way I’m wired, in the interests of fairness, something in a position of relative strength needs to help protect things that aren’t.
Something completely different... Somebody had sent me a message (about a podcast) maybe a month or two ago that I can’t seem to find anywhere. (Too many accounts... lol) On the off chance it was you, and for some reason I had thought it might be, could you give me a hint where to look for it? (Also, I thought a reddit account might have been relevant? In which case: I’m gingerbredshaus over there. Not, mind, that they seem to forward messages either, settings be damned... But there we are.)
Sorry I’m just now getting back to you (if it was you lol).
