User:Rad140/Read fanfiction

Just a list of fan-fiction I've read (more for personal reference than anything else) and some opinions.

Living a Lie
3.5/5

Questioning Thy Self
Have to think some more about this one before rating it.

Rules of Engagement
3.5/5

Lost Friend, Move, New Friends, Kari Jealous?
1.5/5: ugh. the title alone should give you enough reason to stay far away. Grammar/spelling issues, poor characterization (do i care about ANY of these characters?), jumps all over the place, ridiculous plot. Nice tie in w/ Willis though.

So Far Away
2.5/5: meh, just okay. Song fics are hard to write, but the song matches well. No real explanation for the "drama" in this fic, and the characters are okay characterization wise. Just an average takari fic, really.

Faith
3.5/5: Interesting religious tie-in, but doesn't feel forced or is beating me over the head with someone else's beliefs. Chracaterization is good...some of the dialogue, reads awkwardly. Still, overall, a decent cute Takari, and a good send-off to kale.

In a New Light
Interesting alternate take of the Vamdemon arc. Not sure if I like it though. 3/5

Once Upon A Christmas
Surprise, surprise...another Takari fic! Still, cute and Christmas-fitting. 3.5/5

The Price of Fame
Not a fan of this one. I thought it was absurd, and all the characters feel very flat and have the personality of cardboard. I'd have to read it again to figure out my exact dislikes, but then I'd have to read it again. 2.5/5

Imagining You
4/5 Sweet, but sad Taiora/Sorato fic (hints of other couplings)... Good characterization, plot. Very good overall. No Digimon at all, purely relationships.

Kari's question
3.5/5 Nice little one-shot about Kari/Tai's personalities (or their polar-opposites). Excellent characterization for such a short fic. Nice detail for something only 12 lines long. Not a single word wasted.

T.K.'s question
3/5 Same setup as "Kari's question", but just doesn't seem as good.

A Lesson in Love
cute Takari.

Answers and Questions
KenKari. Not much more to say than that. Good characterization, and thanks for putting in Tailmon/Wormmon, if only in a minor role.

As Simple As A Date Can Be
3.5/5...Definitely dub-like, and maybe not the best characterization (but by no means bad either). It more than serves its purpose as funny entertainment.

Dating Isn't Always Simple
Can't really say much about the sequel as it is only two chapters and STILL UNFINISHED.

College Buds
finished...thinking about opinion

My Hero, Too
Honestly, I like this fic, but it feels awkward/kinda forced as a Taiora. I almost thought it was going to be Sorato when I was reading it. I think it would've been better if any romantic hints had been avoided/more subtle, and stuck with friendship (which there was lots of, and was good). 3.75/5

The Silence of Winter
Another one of my favourites. Too bad there aren't any digimon in this one... at all. 4/5

A Cup of Love
AAGH! Too fluffy! :P Nice and sweet *secret coupling*. I like how we get in *character*'s head... see what she thinks, feels. I'm a sucker for well done 1st-person stories. 4/5

Strawberry Popsicle
Original, good 1st-person. Fits a new definition of "short", but feels fulfilling. To me though, the characters seem slightly out of character. 3.5/5

Imagining You
WARNING! Main character death (x2), unrequited love. Might be more sad and depressing than "The Silence of Winter". Yup, it is. Good song fic... 3.75/5

Meh. Decent, easy reading I suppose. Mostly humour/comedy fics, major Takari fan.

Decent writer; Crest of Compassion is a Mary Sue, so be warned.

Liquid Courage
I really like this; it combines plausible relationships with deep characterization, and accurately describes the characters in the future, while featuring their partners! 4.25/5
