beccaelizabethI remain frustrated with stories where the whole entire story is
"he must never know I am in love with him! ... why does he not know I am in love with him?"
and the entire plot could be cleared up by someone saying one single sentence.
I mean, pretty often it's a whole hating himself too much to even imagine someone else could love him thing
which, okay, it's nice when they work through that to the heartfelt
but it's apparently going to be over a hundred thousand words until then and that's... that's just frustration.
And it's such a boring issue! There's so many actual problems they could be working through! Like being on opposite sides of a war, which applies to entirely too many pairings I am reading, but I am reading them partly from the apparently misguided belief that they have to work out their actual problems in a long enough fic and no
no they don't
they can just... have low self esteem and pining... for two novels...
I realise I am the one deliberately reading this right now
but it's still just
so frustrating.
I would like more plot in my porn pls
and also a bit more individuality
since self esteem issues can be anyone.
