Okay, so I have turned myself back into robobitch lately, and thus none of the fics that people have been sniffling over and being all sentimental about? Have done nothing for me. For example: almost-amputated Dom recuperating in the hospital? I would skim until I was assured there would soon be another ev0l medical emergency before going back to read. I would not have been invested in the story otherwise (and I still haven't read the ending).

but this--

This caused a butterfly in my stomach, and I actually felt emotional involvement in a fic character. Poor unrequited Hannah. *sigh*

You're fabulous.
