Ten Signs meme

[valis2]

Ten Six signs you're reading one of my fics:

1. Even if the focus of the piece is meant to be funny, there's a Touch O' Angst (TM).

2. Everyone thinks. And then thinks some more. And then there's the thinking.

3. There's some sort of complicated system involved, whether it be an alternate magic system or something else, but it has rules and follows its own internal logic (most of the time).

4. My summaries--do not let me show them to you. Or you might not want to read the fic.

5. Some bizarre, tiny detail is hidden in it somewhere that makes me grin every time I read it--but almost no one else will even notice it.

6. It's actually not prose at all, but some unending sequence of haiku poems.

I'm enjoying reading everyone's lists!

This is great! I am going to have to read more of your stuff - #3 especially sounds like something I'd be interested in.

#3 is most applicable to the Last Sanguimagus (at lastbloodwitch, but it's omg!het, just to warn you. ;) I do get sucked into weird concepts, and when I was reading the HP books, I was intrigued by blood magic, and just had to "try" it myself...

Is that not a Hogwartsian image? (One track mind, difficult to derail.)

Oooh, yes, it's fabulous! I love that image, and it totally reminds me of the Slytherins...heh.
