I don't read fanfic.

I don't write fanfic. I don't write at all, in fact, not fiction, anyway. But a lot of my friends read/write fanfic. Nothing wrong with that, really, though after a few disturbing incidents (including a Sinfest li'l devil/godfanboy slash suggestion) I need to ask...

What's the point of slash? Why write it? And is it slash if the characters are supposed to be gay in whatever you're basing this off of?

I find most fanfic extremely creepy. Although, I did read some Buffy/Spike stuff a while back (before they became a couple) that was so good I actually cried when I read it. As for slash - I'd never heard of it until you mentioned it. It doesn't sound like something I'd be interested in reading.

It's a little disturbing. Fun, sure, I like reading just about anything (no joke), but not what you wanna find when scrolling down your friend-of-friend list.

Especially when Percy and Oliver Wood are SO wrong for each other.

Harry Potter slash disturbs me, because of the age of the participants. *Shudders*
